The agent's grip on Peter grew so intense that he was on the verge of passing out from the pain. All he could think was the loss of consciousness before escaping and trying to save all of the bones in his hand from being broken.
"I'm not dying yet!" he hollered: flashbacks of the first beating swirling in his mind. Somehow, he was free of the grip, his hand purple and blue. The grip had cut the flow of blood leaving his hand ice-cold.
