Peter's P.O.V.

I walk down the dark path toward a big light yellow house.

The guards stands a few meters away from each other constantly looking over their shoulders.

I crouch down and take out my pistol then screw the silencer onto the front of the pistol. I put my finger on the triger then I watch one guard at the very end of the yard.

He walks to the right then turn to walk left again, he repeats this movement and then I make my move, I crawl closer to him making sure the busses cover my body. When I'm near enough I pull the trigger.

Thud.

One down, 24 to go.

I crawl toward where the other guard is and use the same technique.

Thud. Thud. Thud. They all fall to the ground, only one to go.

I stand up straight heading toward the back door knowing there's a final guard there. I quietly go around the corner of the house and just as I was about to aim at the guard I hear something in the busses. My body freeze and my eyes focus extra hard on the spot I've heard the noise coming from.

There are two shiny dots in the bush and I know someone is there, I point my pistol toward the dots and then someone spoke.

"It's me!" A husky voice says.

I squint my eyes to see who Me is but can't make anything out in the darkness.

"Jack you idiot." I hear him say then he emerged from the busses making sure nobody sees him.

"What are you doing here?!" I hiss at him.

"Why are you here?" He asks back.

"Got business to do." I say blankly.

"Cool." He replies and take out his gun.

Guess I've got some help.

We both crawl closer to the door and when we reach the patio steps Jack gave me hand signals that he'll take the guy out then I can enter the house. I nod my head and within seconds Jack is up the patio and puncture the guards neck with a small pocket knife. He was caught off guard as his eyes only widen when he sees me then his lifeless body slide to the ground and blood stream down his neck.

I crouch next to him and see he has the ring of loyalty on his left ring finger. This is usually a token of his devotion toward my father and their business, not a lot of men get these rings. It's usually men who worked for more than twenty years without causing any trouble. I cut his finger off with the ring and throw it in a plastic bag.

The house is quite, I don't think my parents are home. I climb the stairs making sure to check every corner before I move. Jack comes in behind me and watches my back.

I know my way around so I take the first left then enter the third door to my right.

It's my father's office. Where he does all the dirty work my mother never knew of.

I walk around looking at all the family photos on the shelves and on his desk, so I take out each photo and find a scissor in the second drawer. I cut my face out of every foto in the room, placing the fotos back how I got then only taking my faces the burn it on an empty space on the table.

I then ruffle through his files searching for Kate's name.

This file gives me a feeling I've never felt before. It hurts me but it makes me sick and so mad at he same time.

Someone took pictures of Kate before she got married to me, private photos where she showered, slept, changed, everything you can think of they had captured.

I find a photo that Kate and I had to take on our wedding day. Her eyes looked so sad, it had dark lines underneath and she looked a lot paler.

I put the photo up right against a stapler on my father's desk then close the file but put the severed finger with the simbol of the ring facing up.

MG.
