Chapter 17

It was dark as a figure moved with catlike ease down a boat dock. He was clad completely in black and blended easily into the night. The boat harbor was small and empty of people, but still he moved with caution.

He found the boat he was looking for easily and crouched down beside it, becoming one with its shadow.

If there had been anyone else moving around the empty harbor, they wouldn't have spotted the man as he sat hidden in the darkness, unpacking the backpack he had been carrying.

But there was no one to see him as he began walking around the boat, carefully setting up explosives. He rigged three minor devices around the hull of the boat, before climbing onto it and strategically placing three more.

He took his time, enjoying his work. He loved explosives. Had loved explosions from the first time he had seen one on television as a child. It had drawn him like nothing else ever had. He could still remember the excitement and awe he had felt. And then the first time he had made his own. It had only been a small explosion. One his science teacher had been happy to help him make. His teacher had been so delighted that one of his pupils had finally seemed to be interested.

The thought of that made him smile.

His teacher probably hadn't suspected that the interest he had shown, and the excitement he had felt, had been generated by the explosion, and not an interest in chemicals and their reactions.

If his teacher could only see him now, he thought to himself and laughed softly.

He rigged each of the devices and connected them to a timer and a main trigger.

Then he smiled to himself at his own genius.

When someone stepped on the top step of the ladder, the trigger would start the timer. Whoever was on the boat would have exactly five minutes before it blew up.

He smiled to himself at the thought and packed up his backpack again. His work here was done.

He left quickly the same way he had come. Silently and unnoticed.
