A Contractors Smile

The Boy with a Killer Touch. Friend or Foe?

As me and Elise land we hear a humming noise, Elise seemed puzzled by it but I recognise it, it’s the Obeisance of a boy id meat a few months ago, he assassinates people similar to what I do but his ability is to destroy anything he touches.

We met in Italy last year I usually don’t leave the county but I made a exception for this contract as it paid noticeably more that my recent ones. It was the night I saw the target, the leader of a small mob comprised of only contractors, I was sat on a warehouse roof peering in on the gang waiting for a opening to attack when suddenly I heard a humming noise from one of the doors into the warehouse. Suddenly the door fell off its hinges, I looked closer at the door to see that the hinges had hand shaped marks missing from the door, a black blur appeared from out of the door darting side to side taking the gang by surprise it swiftly begun to glow and touch all the men in the warehouse, seconds later they all fall to the floor dead each one of them with a hang shaped print that goes straight through there body’s in various places.

“Who are you and why are you here?” I hear a voice behind me then a light touch on my shoulder. I tried to turn my head to see their face but they then said

“Turn around and you will end up like them” I took a deep breath then asked them

“What do you want with me” they totally ignored my questing and asked again

“Who are you and why are you here?” I clutched my fist then replied

“I WAS going to kill that man down there but with him missing a large chunk on his head I don’t think I can anymore” I dived rolled away from his grasp as spun around to see their face, a boy younger than me but not by much.

“Fancy meeting you here” he says as he walks from out of a shadow. I smirk then reply

“Small world” as I talk I unhook Elise’s umbrella from myself and walk towards him with a grim look on my face

“Why are you here?” he looks down at his arm, I can see notes jotted down on his arm in black ink. His eyes dilate as he reads it

“You” he replies calmly, I quickly say to him in a attempt of diplomacy

“Do you really want to? It’s not in a contractor’s best interest to fight a opponent they can’t win against” he replies quietly

“True” I feel Elise’s hand move me out of the way as she approaches him, she takes out a picture from a pocket in her bright green and red dress she then asks the boy

“Join us, that man will kill all of us if he gets the chance” she says showing him the photo, its of November 11

“Yes” without hesitation he coldly replies

At that moment out of the corner of my eye I see November 11 standing at the edge of the building

“Ah finally, I thought I was going to die of boredom” he confidently says as he walks forwards, with each step he takes his shoes make a clicking noise on the ground and he air gets colder as he approaches.

“Now!”…
