Tying up loose ends... [inthenow]

May 05, 2005 13:20

Everything was going according to plan. I had made my point to everyone that needed clarification on the issue at hand. I was no Eve, I didn't answer to anyone but the Sr. Partners directly. Now there was only one last issue to take care of. One last loose end to tie up before moving on to the next phase on the Senior Partner's plan.

I had gotten a tip from one of my informants on Dak's whereabouts. She was the last one on my list and it was about time to take her out of the picture... permanently. The partners weren't too comfortable with her existence in this plane or any other, and her demonic powers alone had put her in the partner’s death list.

Now it was all just a matter of finding her and... terminating her existence.

Sure enough, it didn't take long to find her. She was right where my informant said she would be. I smiled and watched her for a while... a long while. I wasn't going to take any chances on this one. This was not the kind of kill that would send out a statement of any kind; this was just something that had to be done because the partners wanted it done. And I had the upper hand here... I had the element of surprise and I was not about to lose that.

I slowly walked towards here, not making a single sound, smiling to myself because after this everything would be simply smooth sailing. After this I could begin focusing on the bigger picture. The one were I kept a watchful eye on Angel and his team. The one where I conveyed the Senior Partners wishes and we worked out ways to make those wishes happen for them, ensouled CEO or no CEO.

Before she knew what hit her I came up behind her and snapped her neck. And it was that easy. Nothing to it really.

I cracked my neck and then pulled out my cell phone and called the office for a clean up crew. "Yes, Marcus Hamilton here. Yes. Correct. Code 86. No, just a small clean up. No witnesses. Thank you."

I hung up and waited for the clean up crew to arrive. Once they did, I wasted no time and returned to Wolfram and Heart. That's where I needed to be now. To make sure things were running smoothly, make sure all communications were open, and make sure that Angel 'shared' his business ideas with the Senior Partners. And if he didn't want to cooperate... well, then there was always more than one way to skin a cat, and in this case, a vampire with a pesky soul.

in the now
