Red eye 2: the quarry and the marauder
Rated M
The reminiscence: part 1
I knew it from the day I shot him that he would be back. He would find me. He would hunt me down. Even if I hid at some obscure land on the other side of this world, I knew he would find a way to me. I knew it when I shot him right below the centre of his heart, knowing it wouldn't kill him.
I wasn't a trained sniper. But I had a clear shot. I was standing merely 5 feet away from him. The bullet would have pierced through his heart. And the game would have been over. What stopped me? I guess I couldn't bear the thought of not seeing those icy blues again. I wanted to see the horror in his eyes again and again every time we met. I had a glimpse of that when I stabbed him with that pen. Hahahahhaha: P
That felt nice. It was as if I was his equal. It was a stupid thing to do, probably even stupider to gloat about. But even you get a slight upper hand over a psychotic assassin you do feel nice.
Or maybe it was just me. I don't know.
But I do know I didn't wish him to die that day. I had prayed to the almighty for his survival when the ambulance and the paramedics were pulling him away. Our eyes had just met. He looked demented. His eyes full of silent loathing. He was in intense pain but I knew he was making a promise to himself. He would return to finish the job. He was too much of a professional.
And I was waiting for him. Ever since the police informed me he had disappeared from the hospital.
I of course moved. I am not that stupid. I had to make his job a little bit more difficult if not impossible.
What better way to blend in with the crowd than the big apple?
New York suited me fine.
It's a big city full of busy streets and shallow individuality. It wasn't difficult to lay low for a while. Maybe Lisa can take a break. And let Regina take over. Oh ya that's my name now. But the question is what's his?
Jackson rippner where are you?
Ps I am also writing an inception fanfic so please bear with me. It will take some time to finish. Reviews are most appreciated.
