Watching them, he felt the first stirrings of regret and remorse.
Something about the way Chris pulled Andrew in, just for a moment; holding him close before flipping him over and pinning him down to the mat.

Toby held his breath, thankful for the cane that kept him balanced, even as his knees grew weak.
It was too late to turn back now. And they would all have to pay.
