Download Invincible By — Michael Jackson

“You want invincibility, boy?”

Leo spun in his chair. Standing in the corner of his room, leaning against the closet door, was a figure. Silver glove. Fedora tilted low. But the face—it was Michael Jackson, yet not. His eyes were white moons, and his skin shimmered like liquid mercury.
