Barto stood in grim silence for several long seconds as he processed the information before him.
His hand stopped hovering over the weapon in his sheath and moved to the radio on his belt.
"If you speak the truth that means you both are instead in direct violation of the first commandment! Cease your activity or meet with [b]full[/b] retribution!"

Barto had never passed judgement of the first commandment before. He felt nothing, but somewhere he knew he would have found this to be exiting.
He was tense, ready to pull out the radio and push the emergency button in a moment. The criminals had been read the rules, all he needed was one more act of violence or unruliness and he could call the entire church on their necks.
