‘What the f*ck is that guard doing holding that thing like he’s at a show and tell?!’ Was Gary's first thought, as he saw him hold it in his hand. The teenager could tell by the look of shock on Xin’s and Jayden’s face that they had clearly recognised the item for what it was.
“Er….er..” Xin was fuming, unable to find the right words, while Gary had yet to make up his mind on whether he should just snatch it out of the man’s hand or pretend like it wasn’t his.
“Hey, calm down, it's not like a condom is going to be used as a weapon.” Jayden said as he walked forward. “Actually, on second thought, you could probably suffocate someone with one of these things.”
The Altered snatched it out of the guard’s hand before he could even react. Then, he turned to Gary, staring right in the eyes, an evil smile on his face.
