Drabble 50

Finished at 3:50.

Raven and Tzu had gone to wait in the hallway, since Blue’s “interrogation” techniques were beginning to unsettle even Tzu, leaving Blue to wring some information out of Anansi alone. He was salting a repurposed kitchen knife and muttering to himself about a problematic lack of rats with his back to Anansi when he was grabbed from behind, put into a chokehold and forced to drop his knife. “How did you get out?” Blue demanded, when Anansi shifting his weight briefly allowed him to speak. “I’m an assassin, it’s what I was trained for,” snarled Anansi, picking up Blue’s knife.
