“You want my Father, Colonel Moran, so you took me to make him follow us.”
“Yes, young Hamish. Simple, isn’t it?”
“Then why did you bring my Dad, as well? He knows you; he told me. Why bring along someone who knows your weaknesses? Even locked in the basement, he’s a threat to you.”
“You’re a very clever boy, so you tell me.”
“I think you want to make my Father choose between us.”
“Exactly.”
“He’ll choose me. Dad would kill him if he didn’t. I don’t see the point.”
“The point, little man, is that I’m going to kill you, all of you, anyway. I just want your Father to see it and know it’s his fault.”
“I don’t think you believe that, Colonel.”
“No? Then what do I believe.”
“I don’t think you believe anything. I think you only wish.”
“Wish?”
“You wish to be dead like your boss. But you just can’t disappoint him by ending your own life. So your plan is to make my parents do it for you.”
“I don’t… Listen, you’re just a spoilt little kid. You have no idea what…”
“Oh, don’t worry, Colonel. It’s okay. It won’t be long at all before my Dad and my Father make that wish come true.”
