She put her pants on one leg at a time, just like everyone else. Most people, however, wouldn't be putting on those pants with the intention of getting into a ice cream truck, twisting the steering wheel like the helm of a ship, and forcing people to collide into her. That's what made her different.
It was insurance fraud, plain and simple, and she lived for it. What was the point of having a stable, high-paying job when she could purposely hurt others (and herself) for delicious morsels of cash? Every day was pay-day; a new car, a new way to swerve into opposite lanes and cause very dangerous pile-ups. She was playing god and she was celebrating the longevity of her life (and bank account) by continuing to play that game.
All of those things plagued her mind that morning while she stared at herself in the mirror. Black pants pulled all the way up to her belly, the white shirt thrown leisurely over her minimalist attire, and the packets of fake blood stuffed into her pockets that said, "I'm going to commit insurance fraud today and I truly have no regrets." She gave a purse to her lips and walked out of her bathroom, sauntering playfully towards her apartment's front door.
She laughed to herself as she swung the door wide open. In just fifteen minutes, some unfortunate sap was going to taste the frigid grip of extortion. It was going to ruin their life, their family, and maybe more detrimental factors that she didn't even think about yet. It was so charmingly vile, it reminded her of herself. Her sneakers stomped onto the metal steps of the stairwell, the smile on her face unfading, as she cast her preying eyes on the innocent drivers in the road beyond.
Her mind screamed annihilation, but all in due time. Her pasty fingers took hold of the trucks door, sliding the driver's side open and hopping herself into the leathery front seat of her vehicle. She took an ice cream cone from the back freezer, slamming the chocolate into her mouth and pressing her foot to the accelerator.
"Legal tender - more like Smeagol's blender!"
