A distraction.

There has been a lot going on.
I have been too busy in the past few days.
Too much has happened for one post.

I met Swan,
or Ugly Duckling,
or Duckie.

I prefer Swan though.

Fracture and I had arranged this,
however I was unaware that Swan did not know.
This man who looked my age,
sat at a table with long hair covering the mask he wore.

He was different.
His need to see that spark in people.
That burning fire inside him.

It reminded me of that time Salome took me to a coffee shop.
The divorced husband.
The kill.
How she looked when she told me to kill.


She was family to me.
The closest thing to family I could have anyway.


West was with me,
Tau's reasoning was that he didn't want me going alone.
Just in case it was a trap.
Or that my backers didn't trust me still.


Either way, once we established identities,
we managed to elude West.


We did a host of things.

Talking, Fighting, Singing.
We both sing.
Our songs relax us.
London bridge and La, la la.

He made me smile for a little while.
Even though he was attacked.
And even though Theta took out his revenge on me.
Swan punched him...

I remember a call at 3 AM.

I had to leave my friend.

Caroline Strauss was dead.
The circumstances were suspicious.
She voted for my own termination.

I, along with the teams we were training,
were sent to clean up her mess.
Prevent police from tracking documents or such back to us.
I

I shall continue later.
Tau wishes for brief me with more information on what happened for release.

    1. Perhaps.
      Perhaps not.
      Maybe time will tell.

  2. Hate Theta. I hope that revenge wasn't to terrible...

    1. He cut off my hand.
      It hurt but it was worth it.
      The amount of times I have wished to punch him...

    2. Indiscriminate rage.
      Making dreams come true one punch at a time.

    3. I suppose that is how we differ.
      You do what I choose to restrain.

  3. Only for a few days.
    It is fine...
    I have had worse done to me.

    Please do not kill people...
    All it does is end a life.

  4. Some deserve their lives ended.

  5. Some people deserve their lives back.
    Is it our place to choose?
