Squeak, squeak, squeak.
Her trainers made an enjoyably unpleasant noise as Daisy marched across the polished wood floor. Moments earlier the corridor had been full of students, laughing and joking as they made their way to their afternoon classes. Now it was all but deserted, the sound of her shoes echoing around the empty space.
She walked slowly, firing glances left and right to see if anyone had seen her arrival. Nobody had taken much notice so far and her progress had been smooth and unimpeded. The occasional student looked up as she passed, mildly curious, before returning their attention to the whiteboard. No wonder the results from this place were so good.
âCan I help you?â
Daisy stopped in her tracks, turning quickly to find a portly man in overalls hurrying towards her.
âExcuse me?â she replied.
âThis is a school. You canât just come wandering in off the street ââ
âIâm a pupil here.â
âNo, youâre not. I know everyone who comes in and out of those gates and I donât recognize you â¦â
The man came to a halt just in front of her. Now he scrutinized her more closely â Daisy thought she began to see the tiniest flicker of recognition there.
âWhatâs your name?â he demanded.
Smiling, Daisy stepped forward, ramming her left knee into the manâs groin. The shocked caretaker gasped in pain, but his agony was short-lived. The butt of her shotgun now crashed into his face. The impact was brutal and her victim crumpled to the floor, his legs giving out beneath him.
Slipping her gun back into her coat, Daisy spotted a clutch of students moving to the window of a nearby classroom. They looked down at the prone caretaker, then back up at her. But she was already on the move. Ruining the fat manâs day had not been part of the plan and it wouldnât pay to get distracted.
She had work to do.
