Chapter 2: Leverage
He bangs his fists on the table in disappointment, when he got the dreaded news. "Jacobs, bailed on us, sir" the pathetic excuse for one of his men. "What's your next move?" the man asked again. The man was tall, taller then his boss. But that didn't mean he was confident in himself.
His boss was a cruel only think of yourself kind of guys. Yes, he was intimidated by him and he held something over him, but he wasn't to shocked the new guy "Jacobs" bailed. He would himself if he had any guts.
You see thats how his boss was so good. He only hire the best of the best, with no guts and no glory. But then he had the sad sapps, for the guy feeling the heat for Jacobs bail.
"The boss" they call him, no one knows his real name. No one really wanted to know because if you did, that means you would be dead in a few hours. No one knows what he looks like or sounds like. Went ever you talked to him he would stay in low light and talk in different accents.
"You know what we must do." the boss is in a low key kind of voice. The pathetic man nodded grinning hear to hear. "Yes, sir" the man said obeying his duties. "Good! Finally a man with a conscience." he said stepping into the moon light but not revealing his face.
"Thank you, sir." the man said walking out of the room.
His stomach turned queasy and his heart began to race has he held the guy that was stuffed in his back pocket. It was untouched and unused. He shivered at the thought of killing a man. Seeing the despair in their eyes.
This with many other things was why he was considered a rookie. He hadn't gotten into this not short after Jacobs and was new to the rules.
Rule number one always have Leverage over another. Everyone has a weakness, when you find it use it to your advantage.
Rule number two if you bail there will be consequences. So brace yourself for the hurt.
Rule number three you can NEVER EVER have a life with this job.
Right now only one of those apply to Jacobs situation. Rule number two. The most important in his point of view.
He headed for the streets, looking for a dead man to receive his punishment. Jacobs didn't have leverage, he was very strict one rules number one or three. He was a very lonely man. He was taught never to be attached to anything.
The man finally pin point Jacobs location. He entered the abandoned building with caution. From what he seen from Jacobs, he was a every prepared man. This task wasn't going to be easy.
The man head up the stair after checking the bottom floor. "Jacobs!" the man taunted him like an unwanted ghost. The man continued to look throughout the building to finally corner Jacobs.
The untrained man pointed his gun, aiming for the guys head. To his surprise Jacobs looked like he was ready to die.
"Do it!" he said spreading his arms out and laying his head back. The man paused in the moment, in shock. He was ready to die? He wanted to die?
Yes this was a pathetic excuse for killing and innocence man. This made him feel even more pathetic in his ways. Out of anger and distress the man pulled the trigger.
The bullet went straight to his chest and out the other side. He was dead in seconds. The now wildly insane man, smiled at his work. He held to gun closer to him, like it was his life.
The man turned and pulled out his phone. "It's done, sir!" he said like he was proud of himself. "Your first time is always the greatest!" the boss said the pleasure in the mans voice. "Now you know what you must do, Jones." the boss said. The man pictured his boss with a crooked smirk on his face.
"Yes, I will get you a new candidate!" the man said. "Good and this time get me someone with Leverage…"
