Chapter 17 Prey vs Predator

After getting back from the office, we dressed for the mission which was planned to be executed tonight. It was high time to utilize his culinary skills. Our prey i.e. the second person who was involved in that incident was Lucas. In comparison with the rest of the three, he was physically weak. As it was our first mission together, we had to target a weak one to gain experience in the field. Currently, he is on vacation attending his friend's wedding. His stay was planned in a luxurious 5 starred hotel.

Olex applied for Chef's position and luckily he was able to grab an offer and his job eased our task.

He was provided with night duty. He entirely disguised his appearance. Added big spectacles, a pair of gloves, a moustache and a long beard to his look. His toque Blanche did the job of covering his hair and forehead. While he was dressing up, I quietly peeped at him and laughed.

"You look so different it's difficult to identify you."

I wore a long black dress and posed as one of the guests at the hotel. But I won't be welcomed from the front door as I don't have proof as a guest.

Both of us sat in the car and headed towards the hotel. We decided he would signal me in some way to reach the back door of the hotel's kitchen. It was time to execute our mission. We both were nervous but we were determined to do it.

He looked at me and said, "Don't come out until I give a signal to you. Take care."

He parked the car at some distance from the back door of the kitchen and went away.

There were just three or four chefs on night duty. Olex intentionally took Lucas's order, and prepared it completely but served only half of it. Lucas was chilling with his friends at the bar. The night bars usually keep a dim light and there is always the indistinct chatter in the background. Almost each one present was intoxicated with alcohol. While serving the drinks and food, Olex gave a body paralysis shot on Lucas's leg from under the table to not make it obvious. While the injection is injected into the body, it just feels like a mosquito or an ant's bite. Hence, he didn't react much to it.

He changed his tone, spoke coarsely.

"Sir there is something on your coat. Let me clean it."

Lucas allowed him to clean it. In the pretence of cleaning it, he silently took away the key to Lucas's room as his coat's upper pocket appeared to be bulgy and no one noticed him doing it as everyone was busy with their drinks. He quickly slipped away from the bar and came to the kitchen. I was waiting for him to signal me and finally, I received it. After the chefs had left to serve their dishes, the kitchen was deserted. He unlocked the backdoor, I rolled the wheels of my wheelchair and went inside the kitchen.

Not only the hotel seemed five-starred but you could also give a good rating to the kitchen. It was so lavish. Olex pushed my wheelchair and we finally reached his room. After unlocking the door, he led me inside. He locked me and went away. The half food which was preserved earlier was meant to be served now. Till the time he returned, my task was to close the curtains to avoid eyewitnesses and to check if there were any CCTV cameras or any tracking devices present in his room with the help of a radio frequency detector.

While he went to serve the food, upon approaching Lucas and his gang, the critical part of our plan was about to execute. Lucas wasn't feeling good, so his friends asked Olex to take him to his room as they thought he seemed to be done with alcohol for the night. I heard footsteps approaching near the door and assumed that he was back with our prey. But to be on the safe side, I hid in a room. Both of them came in, he made him lay on the bed. This time, he locked the door from inside and blew a low-frequency whistle to indicate that he was back.
