I fidgeted.  The idea of Brian in the hands of the Nine was… daunting.

Yeeah. He’s probably not having a good time, even if they decided they benefit more from keeping him alive or even unharmed for some reason.

Was Siberian eating him alive, literally?  Was he at the mercies of Mannequin?  Jack could be torturing him for details on us.  Or he could be in Bonesaw’s clutches.

Or all of the above. Restrained using Mannequin’s chains, his toesies being eaten while Bonesaw operates on his head and Jack tortures him in the middle?

Chances were good that they were pissed.  Jack excepted, maybe.  He’d seemed to like our ambush.  In any event, any anger or sadistic tendencies were likely to be taken out on Brian.

Makes sense that he would like it. It came as a surprising and unusual move, adding some spice to the feast that Brockton Bay is to him.
