"He shoots lightning. There was a guy kinda like that here too," Billy
said, figuring he should probably admit that otherwise it would look
suspicious. Of course, admitting there was a hero in his hometown AND here
was suspicious but Billy wasn't too worried. He and Shazam looked nothing
alike.
"And I'm sorry about your mom. Having your own place-"
Before Billy could finish what he was going to say, someone stepped onto
the path in front of them. He was taller than either of them, although in
Billy's instance that didn't mean much, and wiry. His arms jittered a bit
and Billy was about to ask if he was okay when he saw the knife the guy was
holding.
"Don't be a hero in front of your girlfriend, kid," the guy said. "Just
hand over your wallets and your phones and no one has to get hurt."
