I make it to town, and I decide to get started on my own research. If I can help it, I'm going to see if I can find something that'll help prove them innocent and I'll have to talk with them first. 

To ask if they have any idea on why they need to be killed and anything that might have contributed to it.

After I get to the library, I start up the computer and plug in a device made to prevent anyone from seeing what I'm doing. 

I then type in the name of the person I'm too assassinate by the end of the week at the earliest and in 2 weeks at the latest.

It seems they still leave in the same house and so I turn the computer off pulling out the device. I make it seem as I was never there, and I stand up pushing the chair in. I start walking out the door and turn down the road towards the location of their house.

I'm on the opposite side of the street across from their house and I'm going back and forth on going up to knock or not. 

I finally make up my mind and I step down from the sidewalk now walking to the other side. I step on to the other sidewalk and start walking up to the door.

I hesitate for a split second but quickly snap out of it knocking on the door because I remembered something I was told long ago by Stan, he said "People who hesitate, disintegrate. In other words, hesitate and die. 

For if you hesitate when you're in battle your opponent won't wait, they'll use your hesitation against you. Never hesitate but if you do, snap out of it quickly and use it to your own advantage."

I'm brought out of my thoughts as the door opens and they say "Um, can I help you?" I don't look up and soon I look up taking my hood off. She gasps putting a hand to her mouth and I sat "Hey Lyd's, can I come in?"

She smiles with tears before she throws herself towards me hugging me and I tense up as I can't even remember the last time, I had any kind of a loving or gentle gestures like a hug. 

They only gesture I get now are threatening or dangerous and so I tense whenever someone shows affection of any kind . . . It also makes me uncomfortable.

After a but she stops hugging and she lets me in her house, and she shuts the door behind her as she asks "So what do I owe you for showing up after . . . . 

How many years now? Making everyone think you died, it seemed it didn't matter what I said. So why are you here? What do you want?"

I look at Lydia and I see her hair is longer. She seems to have grown up and even has the look of some of the toughest females I've met when training with Stan. She's taking it to a level of no return and taking the treats of the supernatural seriously.

I then look her in the eyes as I tell her as vaguely as possible "I need to know Lydia . . . Have you killed anyone in any way and please answer honestly, I'll be able to tell if you're lying or not so don't. Otherwise, you'll see how different I really am."

She looks at me and says while crossing her arms across her chest "No, I don't kill, I just find the people already killed. . . I thought you knew that?" 

I roll my eyes as I tell her "Look the reason I'm here is to kill you, but I either find something to prove your innocent or I'll have to kill you and if you don't believe me then really listen. Tell me if the voices say death is near."

She looks down and back up saying "then how are we supposed to prove it." I tell her as I turn for the door "I'm going to go get my stuff and come back. 

I have a folder and I think that will be a good place to start. So, we can find put when they think you killed somebody and find out what really happened. Then that should prove whether or not your innocent."

She nods as I open the door leaving to get my stuff as she says, "Can you stay with me?" I turn around to face her already at the sidewalk "Yeah that's why I'm getting my stuff. I'll be back." 

I turn back around to go across the street and towards the place. I pull my hood up putting my earbuds in and I blast my music jogging down the road.
