Edward grits his teeth, though he doesn't slow down. Get out of his head, Crane. He can hear the bastard taunting him now, probing him like always.
What is it that you fear, Edward Nigma?
Do you fear the possibility of your death yet again? Or do you fear your past may catch up to you? You may claim to be a better man now, but that doesn't change the things you've done. You'll never change.]
Shut up. Shut up!
[He does his best to drown out the sound of Crane's ear-splitting laughter in the back of his head. But something manages to cut through all of that.
The sound of Luke's voice.
And if that weren't enough, the sound of Annie's lovely screech is a helpful diversion as well.]
