[SIXTY-FOUR]

(Time Skip Tuesday Night.)

[Warning: Torture.]

Elena Shaw's (POV)

Esme and I got home Monday morning, and I was right us leaving the Randle's was a crying fest between, well all of us. But especially between Esme and Chloe they were both still in their tiny head spaces but new they wouldn't see one another for a bit. It broke my, Lola, and Piper's hearts seeing them so upset so of course I decided we would see them all again this weekend knowing I myself can't be away from them after finding I am so attached already too. It took me a few hours to get my baby bean to calm down and I was grateful for the silence once she fell asleep into nap. Once she woke up a hour and half later she was doing better and was in her three-year-old headspace so I was able to explain we would see our friends again and that settled her. I just hope she won't be too fussy this week until we see them again, especially for myself as well since one I am fixing to deal with those scum and two I am leading up to talk with Esme when she is big about my darker side.

I don't know how she will react, but I hope she will understand, I won't and can't give her details, but I do know I have to tell her I am a murderer in that since even if it is for good in the long run. Shivering I pace around in my office at a different warehouse location of mine, I don't like using the same place each time and have to constant have the places thoroughly cleaned and even sale and relocate them as well as to not get caught. I main still work for the government but only on my terms but that doesn't mean local authorities won't go digging where they shouldn't. My team has taken care of all but a few of the scum from the raid, Mitch had put together everything he found on each of them, and they are lade out on my desk, but I have yet to read them. I wanted to get this over with and since Kelly is out of town and I didn't want to have a stranger watch my baby I took her back to the Randle's and she was happy to go.

Lola and Piper gave me questioning looks and I could tell they worried for me because my dumb self seems to let my guard down with them. When I am dealing with my thoughts and issues I have to take care of them. I was glad they didn't pry but Lola, after Piper took Esme to go play with Chloe told me I could tell her anything. I know I revealed some things I have never revealed to others beside Kelly, but I am a little reluctant to just blurt out "Well you see I am a murderer for the government, I torture those who are vial little creatures and get a thrill from it. But it haunts me and eats me up inside being afraid those I love will hate me and leave me." Right, I could so blurt that out to her, Piper, Kelly, and Esme, ha-ha.

Turning to my desk I glare down at the three files on my desk, and I sigh knowing I need to get through them before I start. One thing good about my brain is I have photographic memory, is not full on like most would think but It is enough I can retain for when I am working either my day job or my night one. Though I do prefer to let most things go not wanting my mind to be a horror filed film of what I have seen and been through in life. Shivering I set at my desk and grab the first file opening it up. The "Snake" Mitch so kindly named is the first and I grit my teeth just at the first few lines of what I am reading. Mitch always says he will have files done by the end of the week, but he seems to always get them done before that. If I haven't known him for as long as I have I would think him a vampire for not getting much sleep and working at all hours.

Chuckling at my thoughts I sigh and continue reading the file, it seems the "Snake" is a one Malcom Reston age forty-two it seems he has been up to his nasty ways for years until now and I am sickened from learning know one has caught him. Seems he owns several sporting good stores and children's activity centers throughout the east coast. Though he hasn't branched out other than the usual trafficking through New York, which is odd, but I guess Ill find out soon if he is more world wide than just the east coast. The rings we took down and the government are still taking down is one of the biggest in years and I am wont be surprised if this piece of shit is part of it but just slipped under the radar until now. Flipping through the pages I gag as I read he has personal connection with a few of his activity cents those being used even by his family. Slamming the file shut I open the next, as I read I clinch my first more, this one is a Devin Mardel age thirty-seven he runs the activity centers for Reston and seems to be well off on his own. Owning a small chain toy stores, he frequents the activity centers as well as has house under a fake name. That seems fishy I'll have Max check it out and I am sure Mitch already mentioned it to her.
