Tremble
“Kale’s plan was brilliant. We’d set up on the train, dig out the tracker, all while staying mobile.
“Here,” Kale said, handing me the knife and lighter as he settled into one of the seats at the back of the car. He pulled off his jacket, followed by his T-shirt, and set them down on the bench beside him. “Sterilize it with the lighter before you make the first cut.”
It was after 3 a.m. and thankfully, that meant an empty car. Having to explain to other passengers why Kale was half naked... and I was performing minor surgery on a moving train with a swiss army knife and Sponge Bob cigarette lighter might be difficult, not to mention disturbing.
Reluctantly, I took the items from him. I knew it was going to have to be me. He couldn’t slice the damn thing from his own shoulder. But that didn’t mean I was happy about it. Blood didn’t squick me out like it did some people—namely Brandt—but I wasn’t necessarily a huge fan of it, either.MoreLess
