In a dark room with only a singular light in the middle shining on a bloodied man, gagged and bound to a nailed down chair. Next to him was a medical tray of sharp utensils covered in blood and rubbing alcohol. There was Athena in a surgeon's gown and mask and stabbing him with minimal expression. She took a jagged knife and stabbed him in the shoulder and he screamed in agony.
"Will you tell me now?" She tilted her head to him and pulled out. "I know you want this to stop. All you have to do is tell me everything about your business and employer."
His eyes bugged out and he shook his friend frantically as if he was more afraid of his boss then her.
She sighed. "I thought so." She stabbed him again and left the knife there. "Maybe I should try an iron maiden technique?" She mused to herself and already preparing another knife. She took it and was ready to stab him again but stopped when she heard her cellphone ring. She put the knife down and took her gloves off. She reached into her pocket and pulled it out. It was her husband.
"Hallo, liebling." She smiled cheerfully as she still looked at her prisoner. "How are you?"
"I am fine. We were wondering when you come home?" Her husband asked.
She thought to herself. "I might be here for a month or two. It depends. I'm sorry."
The guy started to scream trying to get some attention possibly for a chance to get out.
"What's that sound?" Dieter asked, concerned.
"Sound?" She blinked at the man. "Nothing really. Just a private trying to do push ups. Some of my colleagues found out I was here and insisted I guest-train at the boot camp, you know?"
"Oh, that sounds reasonable. Well work hard so you can return earlier and I have to go to another meeting. Ich liebe dich."
"I love you too. Bye." She hung and put back her phone. "Now where was I?" Her eyes hardened and she grinned evily. "Oh yes. So now will you tell me?"
The man shook his head fiercly. She pouted and stabbed him again. She then took a syringe and filled it with a clear fluid.
"Well, if you won't tell me in the next.." She looked at the syringe as she injected it into him. "5 minutes. You my dear friend are going to feel every nerve synapse burn and then paralysis while being trapped in your own body. "It's like ALS but worse so much worse. Do you understand you will be begging me to kill you?" She undid his gag. "So what do you say?"
"You crazy bitch!" He screamed angrily, as he tried to move but couldn't. "Who the hell are you even?"
"Oh." She blinked innocently. "My apologies, I forgot to introduce myself. My name..well my name isn't important but in your circles." She cringed at what she was going to say. "I'm known as the Princess."
If he could widen his eyes any further, they would burst. He became terrified, pale well paler, and sweated profusely. "No, no. Y-you can't be. They all said you died."
"Died? Nope, not me." She smiled and looked at her watch. "By the way, you only have about 3 minutes left."
"Okay, okay. I'll tell you everything." He frantically said, pleading for his life and fear for her unknown reputation.
"Great." She put a different clear liquid in the syringe and injected. "Now tell me everything."
In the next hour, she knew every detail and aspect of the operation. She smiled widely at him.
"Are you going to let me go?" He asked nervously.
Still smiling, she looked at him curiously. She put her hand on the large knife. "No." She cut off his head. The head slightly bounced and the face gaped at her with the tongue rolled out. "Huh?" She said at it amused looked at it. "Time to clean up.
A few hours later, she put the last of the chunks in a vat of acid. She hummed to herself as if it was a simple chore and not disturbing at all. She walked away from it pulling her gloves off.
Her phone started to vibrate. She paused and took out her phone. It was a blocked number. She put it up to her ear and with a serious tone answered.
"Have you made sure that nothing will lead back to her?"
"Yeah, corrupted the cameras' footage during the times she were there. " A man's high voice squeaked through the phone.
"And the other stuff?"
"Yeah. Done and done. The money has no trace so you can use it for whatever. Now when will I get what you promised?"
She sighed. "You'll get it in a week. May I ask why do you want dinosaur DNA?"
"...*click*" He hung up on her.
She shook her head at her phone and sighed. "How did I ever make friends with him?"
She walked out and squinted at the bright sun. She texted her address to a "friend". She needed the warehouse cleaned of any trace.
"I still don't know what he wants to do with this Nikita, but the sooner I cover her bases the faster I go back home." She thought to herself and smiled.
