Chapter 8

Faith knew it was weird, maybe sick, to kill two of Wilkins' liuetenants and then ask for a job from the man. And even if he accepted her offer how long before someone replaced her. But she was perhaps beyond caring. The watchers were no better. They claimed it was about good and evil, but were they really good? They made her into a killer, she was merely changing sides. Really the good guys just used Faith. So would the bad guys, at least they were upfront about it. Despite her name Faith believed in nothing, not good, not evil, not in any higher power or greater cause. Without hope might as well just get what you can for yourself. Faith approached the Mayor, he didn't even deny trying to have her killed. When she remarked that he probably had an opening he seemed intrigued. Faith realized he must really be short-handed now. Whatever her destiny held, Faith realized it would involve him.
