I smiled and threw myself at him, knocking the switchblade away from him as I brought him down hard. He was unconscious, but I picked the blade up and put it in my utility pouch for safekeeping. I didn't want any troubleand I figured a tough guy like him wouldn't be any hassle without his knife.
The woman smiled and hugged me. "Oh thank you for rescuing me. I was terrified of what he would do to me. If you hadn't come along, I don't know what would have happened."
But I did. Only, I didn't see the need to tell her, she was safe and that was the end of that. And to think that Sara was worried about me returning to action as a hero. I fought the street level punks like him, not the cosmic ones. I had nothing to worry about. I was back!
