Excerpt from Chapter 2: Anyway, I was in N'awlin's, minding my own business, just enjoying the festivities. So I was just about to shoot the grand Marshall of the parade (hey you enjoy festivities your way, I'll enjoy it mine) when I felt manacles encircle my wrists, I say felt because I couldn't see them. I suspected they were psychic in origin. I hate psykers. My hands were bound and I couldn't move or turn them. So I pivoted my body around instead and shot the shooter point blank with both barrels of Dr. Impossible's Ultra blasters (patent pending) at full power. The lean scaled figure dropped like a stone. It was pretty awesome. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the slugger, a plated figure with an improbably rhino's horn jutting from his forehead charged towards me. This time I threw my body to the side and the slugger charged through the bonds of mental energy connecting my wrists to the psyker. It created a backlash and I felt my hands go free even as an unpleasant frisson of released energy washed through me. I felt as if a picnic's worth of ants was crawling over every inch of my skin simultaneously. Great, a wave of formication and no pixies in sight. I really hate psykers. With hands finally free I grabbed the hulking horned figure who was just probably experience the same unpleasant sensations I had, by one extended arm and threw him over my hip for about 50 feet (it helps having a ninja for a friend, especially when you're strong enough to lift a Volkswagen). I knew I wasn't strong enough to hurt him by trading punches, so I didn't bother. I just needed to space and time and a unifying theory for both as Hawkins used to say. I spotted the psyker by looking for someone holding their head and generally feeling the condensed effects of a weeks' worth of hangover. Unfortunately that wasn't unusual for most of the crowd. But one was wearing the black shaded and dark suit of an FBI. I raised my gun to shoot him (the blasters would be drained for a while) when I realized it wasn't a him at all, the sunglasses slipped as she leaned forward to puke and I realized she was the prettiest girl I'd ever seen vomit in the street. Sometimes love hits you like that. I couldn't make myself shoot her.
