There was no reason to come after him, Skater realized as his heart thumped leadenly in his chest. They had him trapped right where he was. His left hand ached as he maintained the grip on the canister. He thought about Emma, remembering that he hadn’t said goodbye, remembering that he hadn’t parted on good terms with Larisa either, and he hadn’t been there when his grandfather died. So many missed opportunities. And he had to wonder how many of the team he was going to lead to their deaths, the way he’d led Shiva.
