The phone rang, the boss must be calling
"hello boss"
"give me details on the job"
"boss, you know how dependable i am, i took out the fellow we made kill his dad"he laughed"you should have seen him crying when he realized that he would die,that Michael has moves too though, took him out when he came close"
"did you take out Michael before detonating the bomb?"
"there was no need he was standing right under the bomb,there is no way he's going to survive that"
"the instructions were clear, take out both Michael and subject number four"
"boss come on, give me some credit, he moved quickly when i shot Tony"
"your instructions were simple.....what's the muffled scream i hear?"
"oh boss my first hunt, she's pretty"
"finish it quickly"
"oh come on boss, i haven't had fun yet, i just stabbed her 6 times in her right arm and thrice on her left lap" he stabbed her again "7 times" he laughed some more, the girl couldn't take it anymore,she went unconscious.
"don't die on me yet sweetheart, i haven't had enough fun"he whispered as he hit her head, it didn't help, she slipped further down into unconsciousness.
"i am still here"
"boss sorry, come on, you sound scared of this Mike dude, is he some sort of bogeyman?"
The caller laughed, he had never heard the boss laugh. He could feel sweat forming behind his neck.
"Michael isn't the bogeyman"there was a short pause "Michael is the man you send to scare the bogeyman" the caller hung up. No no, no, i messed up, no, he thought as he took out his frustration on the girl in front of him he wasn't angry, he was scared. He stabbed her once, the again,and again he kept on stabbing her, again, and again. She's dead, there's no use taking out my frustration on a prey who won't help me. I have to make sure he stays dead. He'd have to ask his sources in the CIU.
Beep!
Where am I?
What's that sound?
Beep!
A heart monitor?
A hospital? I thought I'd be dead by now.
"you'd never be like us, you are just a weirdo"
Beep!
Is this what people who are about to die see? Old memories?
He wouldn't be able to see her this week, he won't be able to see her again.
Michael's heartbeat flat lined.From the hospital records, they had recovered his body under the rubble, how? How could his body still be intact? How could he have survived this long with all those injuries? No the doctor said he only had injuries in places that wouldn't do harm if he ever woke up and just some minutes ago his heart beat flat lined, for the second time since he had been in the hospital. He had to make sure Michael came to him, he just had the feeling, it was painful to admit but he would wake up. But that would be the last time he would, he promised himself. As he sat in his car, he saw her leave the hospital. He smiled and thought "Christmas came early this year"
Sophie just wanted to go home and sleep, she couldn't take the fact that he had flat lined again. Why can't you just wake up? Why must you play with our minds? Why?
Someone was jogging up behind her, she thought, another old man trying to keep fit. She was too tired to even muster a smile, she said she'd keep her head down till he passes.
He was getting closer.
I better check the time, i need to call my little sister, i hope she's asleep.
It was 2:14 am.
It was too late. She couldn't react in time, she felt something hard hit her head.
She went black.
