There is one bright side to this," said Fang.Yeah? What's that?" The new and improved Erasers would mutilate us before they killed us?He grinned at me so unexpectedly I forgot to flap for a second and dropped several feet. "You looove me," he crooned smugly. Holding his arms out wide he added, "You love me this much."My shriek of appalled rage could probably be heard in California, or maybe Hawaii.

Clearly, instead of weeping like a moron, she could be lunging forward and administering a swift uppercut to the chin. Then this entire pointless ordeal would be over with, and I could go home.
