Soon after we got back, Mevis fell sick, probably from the after effect of the contract. I sat beside her, waiting for her to recover. Soon, there was a crash from outside, Perry was about to shout when he was knocked out. I felt a heat signature nearing us.
I just waited.
Soon, a masked man entered the room, with a taser and knife. I got up from my seat and asked, "Can you tell me your name? "
"Why? " He replied.
"Never mind then. " I waved my own question away. "So, Kevin, what are you doing here? "
The masked man took a step back and demanded, "H-How did you know? "
I smiled and moved my chair. I sat back down and crossed my leg. I looked at him and said, "Your voice is exactly the same. What did you expect? "
Kevin shook what I just said aside and shouted, "Move aside, Franklin! Mark wants Mevis, so step aside! "
I looked at the ceiling, then sighed. "Don't feel like it. "
Kevin charged at me, taser pointed. Sitting down, I kicked his wrist, possibly breaking it. Kevin jumped back and clutched his left wrist. I continued sitting, still looking at him. I asked, "Hey, Kevin, what are you doing? "
He screamed and threw his knife at me.
The knife dug itself into my chest. I pulled it out, the metal blade of the knife melted. I threw the handle of the knife back at Kevin. I told him, "Just leave, man. Go whine to Mark or something, I don't care. Just also tell him that if he tries anything funny, I won't hesitate to kill him. "
Kevin just ran away. I sighed and continued waiting.
Mevis woke up and asked if anything happened during her rest. I laughed and just assured her nothing happened.
"So what is that puddle of metal? " She asked.
"Um... " I replied. "Just... A spoon that I melted by accident...? "
She accepted my explanation and left her room, just to see Perry recovering. I followed after her. Perry excused himself to receive a call. He whispered, his face had a look of worry. He turned and said, "The Sloan family is planning to visit for dinner tonight. "
"That's a pleasure. " I told him.
