Chapter 10: Murder needed?
Sophie was reading an alternate history on the internet published by a certain John Smith, which told of a world where the Washington rebellion had been successful and the humiliation of Edinburgh had not taken place.
Of course that boy has a fancy ...
She think.
Suddenly she sensed a presence behind her and turned, meeting her gaze with Ayano, who was staring at her seriously.
"What happened?" She asked.
"Anou was waiting for them at the airport."
"And Klaus? What about Ashley?"
"They were killed ... Like my mother!" She affirmed, while a lonely tear streaked her face.
"Killed? Oh, my god ... "The scientist began to panic.
"We are next ... We have to get out of here!" She exclaimed, frightened.
"There is no way overland. We have to escape by air. "
"You mean with a plane?"
"Yup. Now that the local cell of the Revolutionary Brigades has been dismantled, the military will ease surveillance on the airport and we can steal an aircraft undisturbed. "
"When are you going to act?"
"Right away, the sooner we get to Paris the better."
"Paris?"
"Exactly, Paris."
"But why right there? We could escape to Britannia!"
"We have a mission to accomplish, did you forget it?"
"But there are only two of us!"
"We will join the Oscar Hammel rebels, of course."
"Yeah, I hadn't thought of that ... So are we going?"
"First we need to get a vehicle to get to the airport."
"And how do we get it?"
"We steal it, of course!"
"Steal it?"
"No, we borrow it ... Of course, steal it!"
"But it's risky!"
"It's also risky to stay here, stubborn!"
"Okay ... Let's get this tooth out. The sooner we do it the better it will be. "
Once out, the two women cautiously walked along the road, looking for some cars to steal. Fortunately they found it: a white Porsche Cayman stopped at a traffic light.
"You wait here!"
Having said that Ayano approached the vehicle, then knocked on the driver's window.
"What do you want?" Asked a girl with long blond hair, blue eyes and pink lipstick on her lips.
"My mother is sick! She needs help!"
"Where now?"
"Nearby! I beg you, do something!"
"I'm calling an ambulance!"
The blonde reached out to her cell phone, dialed the number and hit the green button. At the same instant Ayano snapped the hidden blade and stuck it in the woman's temple, penetrating into the brain and causing her instant death: she collapsed lifelessly on the wheel. At that point the Japanese girl opened the door and pulled out the body, which he threw badly on the asphalt.
"You killed her!" Sophie said, shocked.
"You do not say!"
"Why?"
"We needed her car, obvious captain!"
"You could stun her!"
"And how, with a punch? She could have escaped or attacked me! "
"But…"
"There is no time! Get on board, I'll join you right away!"
Having said that, she crouched on the corpse and began to search it.
"She recently died and you already have them in her pockets? But don't you have some respect?"
"Now don't preach to me, Bloody Sophie ..." the swordswoman warned her as she checked her victim's wallet.
Irina Jelavic, from Zagreb ... Forgive me, but I had no other choice.
She thought, while pocketing some banknotes.
"Let's go."
He boarded the Porsche imitated by his accomplice. After a while the car started.
