The Day Part 10

He knocked me flying into the next room. Going through the door was hard enough, going through the wall would have been...much worse. I stood up shakily, robbed of my confidence by the stranger's awful intrusion and the role, albeit unintentional, that Eddie had played in it."You have the suit stranger and that makes you a worthy adversary, but, to master it...that is another thing."

"Oh Alex, I feel, no, I know I can master it quickly. But even without the masteryof it, I will still defeat you easily fool. And no one is going to come to your rescue. And you have Eddie to thank for it. I dare say you chose your friend unwisely."

"Shut up, you don't know what you're talking about. Eddie is a good friend. he simply made a mistake, that is all. Nothing more."

"A mistake that could well cost you your life hero. Unless you're wise enough to see the inevitable. I really don't need to kill you to have won over you. I would be content to simply walk away with the suit...And the knowledge that your reputation is quite undeserved. Do not think on my generous offer for long hero, I have much to do and I am anxious to begin."

"No. That is my answer you fiend, you are not leaving here with that suit."
