The Idiot Assassin - Jacob Frye

Memories

As I drove the carriage silently with Connor beside me, he decided to break the peaceful silence.
"Anastasia... I was hoping we could fix everything again..." Connor asked carefully. "There is nothing to fix, Connor. Its alright." I said rolling my eyes and taking a deep breath.

As Sam and I were working on a case of 7 women who have been only murdered under 5 months back in America, we decided to involve Connor since we needed the most help we could get.

"Sam, it makes no sense! The murderer is only executing women! It must be targeted women!" I threw the documents on the table, rubbing my temples as I did not have much sleep.

"But why is he targeting them! If they were targeted!? At what cost!" A bang at the door shut Sam up, making him get up from the velvet chair and opening the door.

"Sorry I'm late, I think I got us a lead." Connor entered bringing his hood down, showing his face.
"Oh thank the heavens." Sam exhaled. "Now lets get moving before we loose our opportunity." Sam and I followed Connor out the door and entering a carriage.

"So what's the plan?" I asked wanting to know every step of the way. We have been tracking this psycho killer for too long. Connor pulled out a paper from his cloak and handed it to Sam and I to take a look. "Here...this is the man we're after." It was a sketch of the murderer, he had black hair, a long sharp nose, a mustache and a very sharp looking face. "The women are apparently targeted. If you look closely to the victims, they all had brown eyes and brown hair. It must be targeted." Connor explained. "I told you!" I punched Sam's arm, happy that I was accurate.

"A civilian saw him entering an abandoned factory, we're on our way there now to find some clues." Connor once again explained. "I knew you were always full of surprises Connor." I patted him on the back giving a proud smile to him.

"Here we are." Connor stopped the carriage. "Alright, we should split up. I think we're gonna work faster that way." Sam demanded. "I'll take the roofs, Anastasia you take the factory. Connor, look out around the area." Sam once again demanded as we accepted his commands. "On it cousin dearest." I straight away headed into the factory, slipping my hood on.

It was dusty inside, I tried not to take a deep breath in. The factory was filled with old machines for god knows what. As I walked in further, I heard a knife being sharpened. A light from a lit candle lit a small part of the room. I saw a man's shadow across the wall, I slowly pulled out my blade and walked towards him, almost crawling. The man turned around quicker than I thought, his eyes were red, madness filling his eyes. He was missing a few teeth at the front. As he turned around holding the knife in his hand, it became clear that there were blood on the knife.

"Its over! Enough killing! You're done for! Its time to pay for the crimes you have done!" As I was shouting, the man ran towards me and jumped on me, knocking me on the ground. "Aberlin! Enough!! Stop coming back!" He lifted his arm ready to stab me with the kitchen knife. I grabbed his wrist trying to fight back, I kicked his gut and turned him over on his back. As I stood up ready to put the mad man down, I realized what was hung on the wall, it was other victims...women heads were nailed to the wall. They all had brown eyes and brown hair. It caught me off guard, I was shocked from the view, not realizing that the mad man went on his feet and sliced the side of my cheek. "Aberlin!!" The man shouted spitting on my face while I kicked him to the floor.

Sam knocked off the factory door with Connor, Sam jumped on the man. "Aberlin!" The man growled looking me dead in the eyes, I was in shock, I just stared at the mad man not able to move. "He is wanted in the asylum! He kills women who have brown eyes and brown hair because of his dead wife he was obsessed with." Connor knocked the man out with one punch in the face. "And guess what Anastasia? You have brown eyes and brown hair." Sam said as he lifted the man on his shoulders and walked out the factory, handing him to the police. "I need a drink.." I said still shocked. Connor wrapped his arm around me and we walked out of the factory.

As we reached the pub, I straight away went for my drink. I sat on the stool and asked for vodka. After awhile, I noticed Connor wasn't there, I started looking around the pub wondering where he was. My eyes landed on him making out with a woman. Once he was done with his little session, his eyes landed on me. I took another gulp of my alcohol and ran out the door. Connor ran after me trying to explain himself. "Anastasia wait! Please let me explain-" I cut off Connor by slapping his hand away from my shoulder. "No! You can't explain! I never loved a man before! I started opening up to you, you fuck! I hate it when my feelings are being played with! I never loved a man before and I surely won't be loving you!" I walked away quickly before Connor could say anything.

As Connor and I got off the carriage, we entered a pub I saw my gang in there, I surely did miss them. "Hello X's! Welcome to London!" I said feeling proud, grabbing a cup of rum and lifting it up. Some of the men and women who knew me shouted my name in glory and some watched, but they all lifted their alcohol.

I sat with my gang explaining how we need bigger reinforcements and working with the rooks, and how Jacob Frye is their gang leader. Connor sat next to me quietly as I explained through the plan as there were some rooks with me ready to spread the word to the other rooks.

Jacob walked in the pub, greeted by some of his rooks as our eyes fell on each other, smiling to one another. Connor took notice of it and did not approve of it at all. "And there's Jacob Frye." I said smiling, rather proud. Jacob tipped his hat and sat next to me. "Jacob these are my gang. Gang, this is Jacob Frye." I introduced as my gang said hello to Jacob shaking hands with him. "So what did I miss?" Jacob asked eyeing me with a cheeky smile on his face. "I was speaking to them about how our gangs will be working together Jacob, and more people are joining my gang." I explained.

"Anyway boys...I have to get running. Sam and I have things to do. See ya later." I winked at Jacob and Connor. "Now you both try and get to know each other." I said playfully, and before I left I took a last look at Jacob as he winked at me.

(sorry if this chapter is boring! I have things planned out but they will be occurring slowly! Hope you enjoy x!)
