I walk silently like a predator stalking its prey. I need not make noise, otherwise, my movement will be detected by the guards and the mission will be canceled. This promotion means everything to me. I can't afford to remain in my rank forever.
I slowly slid into an open room, the dark envelope and I appeared invisible for a while. My heart beats fast. Maybe, I am afraid. I steady my breathing by inhaling and exhaling.
I peep through the keyhole, I can see my target in the room. She is a beautiful woman with a bright smile which reminds me of my mother. She seems so full of life, so happy and carefree. As I watch her, the feeling of sadness envelops my mind.
Suddenly the buzzing of my phone interrupts the peaceful atmosphere.
“Holy shit!” I curse under my breath as I fumble to answer the phone.
“Located the target? ” the voice at the other end of the phone asks.
“ Target, located boss,” I reply.
“Excellent. Remember, you know what to do,” he says, his voice cold and calculating.“Whatever you do, do not miss your target. You know the punishment that will follow, if you miss your target, right? ”
“ Yes, boss,” I reply, my voice barely audible.
Failure to eliminate the target will result in death. I am aware of that. I inhale deeply and point my gun through the keyhole in her direction.
“A pity how this beautiful soul will join the fallen ranks of her ancestors this night, ” I whisper remorsefully.“What a shame.” a sly smile spread across my face.
I bite my lips and pull the trigger.
Bang!
The blast of the gun reverberates through my bones and I hear a sickening thud as the bullet hits its target.
The woman drops the vase she is holding on the floor, shattering the ceramic item into pieces. She falls on the floor, blood pooling around her. Her body goes limp and she's gone.
The door swings open, revealing a shocked and terrified lady. If I'm not mistaken, she should be in my age bracket.
“Help!” she let out a blood-curdling scream. Her scream alerts the guards and I can hear them marching towards the building. I have to get away fast. I lung forward and strike across her face with my fist. She rumples to the ground, unconscious as the sound of feet approaches my direction. I have no option but to run. I have to get out of here alive and fast.
I slide through the window and find myself outside the building. The night is pitch black and I can hear the sounds of guards and dogs running towards me. The dogs are barking and snarling, closing in on me as I run as fast as my leg can carry me. Bullets whizz past me, embedding themselves in the ground and missing me by mere inches. It is only a matter of time before the bullet strikes me.
My breathing comes in short gasps as I reach the fence. Like an expert, I pull over the top of the fence and I am about to jump down.
“Fuck!” I exclaim as a bullet hits my leg and I drop to the other side of the fence.
I tried to stand up but the pains I felt couldn't let me. I groan and roll on the floor in pain, clutching my leg with my hand. The guards are coming close to me and I know what they are planning. I am defenseless and at their mercy.
