The first was little more than a bad fall, knocking the wind out of Isaac. The next hit with enough force to leave his ribs creaking and his head ringing. By the third, they gave in with an echoing crack. It was almost as loud as their captor's laughter, psychically echoing through his head.[break][break] One thing Isaac was quick to notice was how he was being dropped. Psychic power held his arms upwards before the drop, denying him any chance to brace himself. Was the monkey trying to stop him from lessening the pain? Or was it trying to keep him useful for the assembly line? As if to test it, Isaac rolled his shoulder inward, prepared to let his arm take the brunt of the fourth impact.[break][break] At the last moment, his body swiveled. He'd landed full force on a limb, but it wasn't the one he'd hoped to. For his defiance, the monkey ensured he'd damn near snap his leg. Even as he tried to bite his tongue, Isaac couldn't hold it in any longer. He screamed, voice trailing off as he was hoisted higher, higher, higher still.[break][break] By the time he'd made his final impact, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.[break][break] Despite it all, his screams trailed off into laughter. Even as his cracked ribs howled in agony, he found himself unable to stop. He looked at the retreating monkey through blurred eyes, barely able to crane his neck. "You call that a beating?" he said, even as his taunt fell on deaf ears. " 'Cause that doesn't even make my top five."[break][break] The monkey didn't need to know that most of those top ranks had literally killed him.[break][break] His eyes fluttered closed, watching as the monkey retreated into the distance. Then, as they eased back opened, it seemed to be coming back. Isaac braced himself, only to relax when he realized that it was a different short, blue figure approaching instead. Fighting his damndest, he propped himself up onto a single elbow. There was no light in his eyes, and yet his grin as unshakeable.[break][break] "Sorry, sis. Tried my best."
