DEL CHIVO

SUNDAY, 9:36 A.M. CST

Today would be the day.

Sergio was going to kill two police officers. Shorty had gotten a gun for him, an old revolver with six bullets.

That was two more than he needed.

His plan was simple. He’d already used the hacksaw to cut the deadbolt on the vacant shop near the police station. It had been a heavy duty lock, and it had taken Sergio over an hour, but it gave him complete access to the store, and a perfect view of the station house.

When he saw the Marshmallow Man’s car, he’d calmly walk out the front door, shoot him and possibly his angry female partner, and then rush over to them and take their noses, and if he had time, their ears as well.

Witnesses wouldn’t be a problem. He had a plan for that.

Shooting wouldn’t be a problem either. He had plenty of firearms experience in El Salvador and Columbia, and had practiced with the revolver yesterday, shooting a pigeon sitting on a fire hydrant.

Five bullets left. More than enough.

Then he would burn down the abandoned house with Shorty and Lawrence, ship the faces back to Mendoza via Federal Express, and get on the next flight back to Columbia to begin his new job as a lieutenant in Señor Mendoza’s cartel.

Papa would be so proud.

While he waited, he read a newspaper someone had thrown in the garbage. Sergio looked for details of the murders, to see if the stupid police had a clue what was happening. But he found something very disturbing on the front page.

DEFACER KILLED IN SHOOTOUT?

It said the man who had stolen the faces was named Terrance Rush, and he’d died in a shootout with police.

No. No no no. This would not do at all.

Sergio was The Defacer. Not this Terrance Rush gringo.

What if Señor Mendoza saw the paper? Would he think Sergio was lying?

No. Sergio had the faces. The IDs. That would be proof enough.

Besides, everyone knew the American media lied. Even the Americans knew that.
