A meeting at a park, two decades later and certainly not the first (and perhaps not even the last).
An old game of chess, black pieces humming and with a flick of a finger, moving on their own across the board. Another set of fingers, tracing the white pieces, moving them with ease.
Advance. Take. Surrender. Checkmate.
The same old arguments, stubborn voices, which have only grown even more stubborn over the years, trying to prove the other wrong.
“How many more deaths, Erik?”
That smile, too many teeth and not enough warmth. A predator’s smile.
“Until I break you.”
