When the metallic door of the shipping container closed, the red-haired man turned to Solaire.

He had a smile on his face, which was both menacing and threatening.

He rubbed his knuckles and tightened his fist.

He then swung hard across Solaire’s face.

The impact knocked Solaire and the chair over.

Blood spurted out as his upper lip was cut open.

They lifted him up and placed him back in a sitting position.

Solaire could taste the blood in his mouth. He spat it out.

“Okay, I get the point,” Solaire said. “Are we done?”

The red-haired man smiled, this time revealing his crooked teeth. “No, Mr. Solaire, we are just starting.”

He swung the back of his fist across Solaire’s temple.

Pain shot through Solaire’s head.

Solaire tried to shake it off.

The side of his face burned and his temple ached and throbbed.

The next hit was straight to the midsection.

Solaire almost keeled over.

He coughed. Blood shot up his throat. He vomited.

“You are making such a mess,” the man said.

Between breaths Solaire said, “Then maybe you should stop.”

“Maybe you should just die first.”

“Your boss wouldn’t like that.”

“He’s too soft,” the man said. “Our orders don’t come from him.”

He swung again and again.

He then pulled out his gun and aimed it at Solaire, who was barely able to keep his eyes open.

“Two bullets,” the man said. “That’s all I need for you. The last guy was a professional. He required many, many more than that.”

Solaire made no attempt at a response. The look on the man’s face told him what was next.

“The last guy thought he was some sort of spy,” the man snickered. “He worked in secrecy, like he was in a covert operation. So no one asked too many questions when they found his body looking like Swiss cheese. But you are different. You made yourself known to everyone.” The man lowered the gun. “Making you disappear will be much harder.” He then leaned closer. “If I were you I would go back to wherever I came from.”

With the butt of the gun, he hit Solaire across the head, blacking him out.
