It had been so easy, almost too easy. The older woman had come home in a poby and when she came to a stop in front of her door to open the lock with a fingerprint, I attacked. Mercilessly, the way I had it drilled into me during my training. Everything went exactly according to plan – a plan which I’d put together in a hurry. The many years of planning I’d done for this mission were now making an impact and were proving more useful to me than all the stuff I’d learned at school.
The stun gun was set in such a way that it would simply weaken the woman, so that she wouldn’t suffer any permanent damage. She was just a chess piece that was being carefully moved around. It was important to avoid collateral damage. At least, that’s what I had to attempt. I’d already killed several people during my missions and learned to deal with the subsequent emptiness in my brain. These days, I no longer hesitated, like I did the first time. Nevertheless, it was certainly not an activity I enjoyed.
Sally Michaels was a wiry person but even grown men had no chance against me. The short scream had died away, and as no one was about to rush to the woman's aid, I got her to my car, undiscovered.
It had been easy to track her down; I’d done this kind of thing hundreds of times before. I just had to wait until she’d left the company building. A photo was quickly taken. Using the facial recognition software, I’d quickly found out her name and where she lived. Her name was Sally Michaels and she had two sons.
There was no way that I wanted to hurt the children. That’s why I took the risk and intercepted the woman in front of the house, instead of choosing the safe option and waiting for her in her own apartment. The area was not quite as run-down as I’d first thought. The residents kept the pavements here clean, and there was no smell of faeces like in most other neighbourhoods. The houses were all in good condition, and not much of Seattle’s decay was to be seen. When I’d read that the woman was a cleaner at Centrodynamics, I’d automatically assumed that she was a destitute lady. Far from it! How could someone with such a meagre salary afford such a place? That only led me to one conclusion: she was being supported by the bloodsucker.
Before doing this small thing, I’d gone through every possibility. As far as the guy I’d caught gnawing at the lady earlier was concerned, I wanted to catch him alive and at some point he would need food. And voila – Sally would be the link. I decided not to do anything to her, at least not for the time being. I knew the sense of smell of such an individual was strong and sooner or later he’d find this Mrs Michaels. And I already had the perfect place for the next encounter.
