"Feck you," he spat, wiping the blood on his top tip before getting up "You're dead You think you can mess with us, and nothin' will happen to you?"

"I told you and your feckin' mates that if I ever see you makin' trouble around here, there would be consequences" I waved hty"

"Sean owes us He needs to pay his debts," the kid spat"

"Sean's works at et back to Seamus, and you tell him that he and his aren't welcome here"

"You let me deal with Seamus"

"No"

"Have it your way," I said, putting the kid back on his feet," just give hie He and his aren't allowed near me or mine"

When the kid didn't answer, I bent down so that I would be directly in his face, "GOT IT?" I hollered The kid visibly startled, nodded his head before running off I watched hihtfully scared to death I was pretty sure the one left standing before me noas about to wet his pants
