Chapter 15 The contact
Sez awoke early in the morning. Acording to his clock it was 5:16 local
time. The cold wooden floor
hit his feet as he crawled out of bed. He walked into the kitchen and opened
the cabinet while
simulatneously yawning and scratching his back.
"Oh yea. No food. Guess I
better go get some."
Sez went back to his room and grabbed a Shirt and some pants from his
dresser. His casual shoes were still
in his bag so he grabbed his boots and left. Of course being as tired as he
was he left his house key lying on the
kitchen counter so he had to spend thirty minutes getting the landlord up
and then getting him to open his door.
By the time Sez got his key and left it was already a quarter past six. He
walked down the street dressed in
a gray shirt, dark blue pants, sneakers(which he changed into when he got
his key), and a trenchcoat. It was raining
still. He walked unterneath of the awning to prevent himself from getting
wet. He finally found a small diner where he could eat.
Inside was all manner of people. Sez saw Children,Adults, teens who looked
very troubled. The only open seat was between a little
kid and one of those crazy teenagers. With a sigh he sat down. The kid on
his left had long hair and was wearing a black shirt that
said Zoness Sludge Panthers. It must have been one of those death metal
bands. The kid on his right was talking constantly.
"Daddy
why does it rain. Daddy why is the planet covered by water. Daddy why is
that man looking at me?" The father of the kid looked at Sez,
which he returned with a nervous smile then turned back to the counter. The
waitress came up to him.
"What can i get ya to drink?"
Sez smiled at her.
"Ill just take some coffee. Black please." The waitress
wrote it down and walked off to get his coffee. When she came back
she set it infront of him.
"Decided on what you want to eat yet?" With a
sigh Sez looked up at her again.
"Whatever the special for this
morning is." She smiled at him and walked off to the back of the diner. Sez
set his head down on he counter and sighed.
"Corporal."
His head shot up. He looked around for the voice. It came from the death
rock kid.
"Corporal Im your contact." Sez backed off for a minute.
"Um Kid i think you need to stop takin the drugs your on and go home." The
kid shook his head. in a lowered voice he started to explain himself.
"Corporal Im working for the C.I.A. Im here to talk to you about the mission
you are going to undertake." Sez looked like he was slapped
in the face with a small trout.
"How did you know i would come here?"
"I
didn't this is coincidence. Look ill meet you back at your place. At
9 o'clock ok." Sez still surprised nodded slowly. The "kid" payed his bill
and left. The waitress came back with a bowl of some grayish soup.
"This is the special of the day. Soup made from a fish found only on this
planet." The waitress laid a check down and left. He dipped his spoon
into the soup and tried it. It was actually quite good despite its bad look.
When he finished he paid his bill and left(leaving a tip of course).
When he stepped outside it was still raining. He checked his watch.
"hmm
only 7:30" Sez walked down the street for a while looking at the various
building and stores. He came to the dock where the green waves were crashing
against the pillars holding up the city.
"Hmm 8:30 better head back."
Sez returned to his appartment eyeing the club again as he went inside. When
he got inside the kid was there only...he wasnt a kid anymore.
His hair was short and he was in a C.I.A. uniform.
"Ah corporal your here.
Well weve got some leads for you to follow." He dropped a folder
on the coffe table.
"Your orders if you find him are Kill on Sight. Make
sure before you shoot though. We do currently belive that he is on
Zoness. So you might want to begin your search here. Good luck corporal."
The agent nodded to him and left. Sez picked up the folder and pulled
the picture of the man out. When his eye fell upon the picture he dropped it
and took a step back.
"Tsiras!"
