Hao was doing his best to look his former body in the eye, but his gaze kept drifting down to the medallion. Of course Ling was keeping it close. She was trying to make all sorts of demands of him in order to get his body back.
But if he was quick, he could yank it right off her neck. In fact, even just touching or brushing up against it in the attempt should be enough to trigger the swap back to normal.
However, he knew he was still adjusting to being in Ling’s body. Would he be fast enough? Would he misjudge the length of his own arms? Maybe he should accept whatever sort of deal she was offering. But that too came with risks. Once she got what she want, she still might not swap them back. He knew he had to make a decision quickly as this opening wouldn’t last for much longer...
