Stalking My Prey

Chapter 43

In a jet going to Hawaii, Logan was about 5 hours from his destination, when he got a text message on his cell phone. He pulled out his cell phone and read the message.

"Back down now, or else meet your maker."

"What the hell?" he tried to trace the call, but there was a blocker on it.

Another message appeared:

"Nice try. Don't do that again. Or else."

Logan growled, he didn't like being threatened, especially when he didn't know who was threatening him. He got up and looked through all of the windows on his jet, searching for any signs of a nearby plain that could be a threat to his mission. Unable to see anything, he went up to the front with the pilots and looked at their radar.

"Is there something wrong, sir?" asked the young co-pilot.

"Just checkin' your radar for any nearby aircrafts."

"Sir, there's nothing on our radar, if there was we'd already know."

"Shut up and fly the damn jet." disgruntled at not finding anything on the radar, Logan went back to his seat, and stared out his window searching a plain that could be following them.

Meanwhile, in a camouflaged aircraft; flying about two miles behind Logan's jet, Lady Hydra waited as she toyed with her prey.

Even though most of her face was hidden by her helmet, if was very clear that she was smiling.

"Well, Logan…" she purred, "It's up to you whether you live or die, but it's up to me as to how long you live. Hmm… I better call up my friend in New Orleans and see how he's fairing." she dialed a number and put her phone of speaker phone.

"Hello?" spoke a gruff voice on the other end.

"Have you reached your destination yet?" she asked in an almost hiss.

"Not yet, but I'm almost there, thanks to technology. I'm still amazed at how you humans have managed to keep yourselves alive for so long."

"Like every animal in the world, humans have the instinct and the need to survive." she chuckled, then became serious, "Do you remember your part of the mission?"

"Get the girl, kill Victor Creed if necessary, and get out of there."

"Good. Let's keep in touch every 7 hours."

"Alright. How goes your part of the mission?"

"Oh, it's going good. I've had my target in my eye sight for quite some time now."

"And you haven't taken him out yet? How unlike you."

"Well, let's say that this one's special and I want to make it last."

"In other words you want to screw him, then kill him?"

"You know me all to well, old friend."

"Just to get in too deep, otherwise it could be your neck on the line, instead of Jubilations."

"You worry too much, old friend. Why don't you get laid for something."

"You know I can't."

"Whatever. Just remember to do your mission and I'll remember to do mine." with that she hung up and went back to watching her prey. "Soon, very soon, Logan… You and I will have our fun and then… You die."
