[ Mercy doesn't understand what they're referring to, thankfully - but she can't help but scream at the sound of the gun. It startles her, and she hides her face, not sure what to do in the chaos.
Royce normally isn't terrible at handling one or two people, but he's tired. He's not at his best. The gunshot fires, and the woman tries to move, but it doesn't make any difference. The bullet goes right through her skull and she drops like a rock. The man with the gun doesn't hesitate in shooting at Alfie's hand to get the weapon away - and with two other men, rushes Alfie and Mercy.
Mercy screams, and Royce is distracted from the fight with the remaining pair, which means he catches a crowbar across the jaw. He drops, which Mercy sees, and she can't help it, lets go of Alfie and tries to get to her father. It's easy for one of the men to scoop her up, and for the man with the gun to press the gun right to Alfie's temple. ]
Don't move, now. Don't move, or she gets to see your brains blown out all over the floor. [ The man with the gun says casually. ]
