CHAPTER FOURTEEN

The veiled woman sat alone in a room staring blankly when an ogre servant came in. It handed her a manila envelope. The ogre then spoke, "My queen. I have gathered everything in this envelope are you sure this is what we hoped for?"

"Absolutely" the veiled woman answered blankly. "He suffered physical pain just as my people did. Longer and more agonizing and died suffering the emotional pain I felt after what he did. The woman then stared at the envelope and said, "Prepare for the drop off."

The next day The magical new York times read ;

CORPSE FOUND IN MIDDLE OF MEGAS BIZARRE. The dead body of American Dragon Jake Long was found in the center of Megas bizarre as if dropped there last night. The corpse was wiped clean of any dirt or other material that would suggest where he was/ The only two things found on him was a black veil covering his face and a manila envelope which had been handed over by the dragon council for their examination. The victim seems to have undergone severe injuries. Several ligaments have been torn including dislocated arms which includes another dislocated leg. His back seems to have been whipped repeatedly and finally the cause of death was gunshot wound showing two bullet holes in the heart. After further examination the dragon council claimed the manila envelope contained incriminating photos of the decease burning twelve innocent victims alive. We can only assume that he was killed by someone who held a personal vendetta against him.
