Do you realize that you're acting like a child? Erik's voice only infuriated him further, and he shook his head irritably. Shut up. I don't know why you didn't kill that Meg girl, especially is she's as annoying as James. She announced your name all over the forums! Since when did you become rational? He slipped the knife from hand to hand without even realizing it, his movements too smooth and practiced to allow for any injuries.
You have no concept of loyalty or respect, boy, was Erik's cold response. Bran just scoffed and decided to stop trying. There were another pile of bodies ahead, strewn on the street corner, but further inspection showed that there was nothing of use. Well, clearly the dead weren't very useful, so they'd have to focus on the living. Casting a quick glance behind him to make sure Lotte was still there - not that it mattered - he began to focus on the buildings. He skipped over the ones that already looked looted, but when he encountered a locked door he stopped.
"Locked doors are always locked for a reason," he muttered to himself. Taking a few steps back, he made sure the women had ample time to realize what he was doing before he raised his right foot and kicked at the door. Once, twice, and then the third time was the charm. If anyone was inside, then they'd know they had company, but he really didn't care. Anyone who got in his way at this point would be lucky to escape unscathed.
