If you want someone kidnapped give me a call. My name is Gina and trust me I don't come cheap. I have made a name for myself in the industry if I do say so myself. I'm the one everyone comes to first.
Ring! Ring!
"What?" I snapped into my phone.
5am was
not
a good time to call me as you can see.
"Gina?"
"You're not answering my question."
"I'm going to pay you eight-thousand dollars."
"OK. I'm going to listen for just a minute now."
"There is a scientist our country needs. Have him at the dock by noon and I'll double my earlier offer."
"Just tell me where to go."
This was going to be one of my easier collections. The scientist in question, Dr. Millisant Tomago, worked alone. She also just so happened to work odd hours. So I didn't have to worry about being seen. Working on a small college campus in a well to do rather crime free town also gave her the confidence to leave her door unlocked. A false confidence I intended to use to my advantage. I strolled into the lab where the little Asian woman, a cute little thing in her late thirties sat distracted. In one swift motion I spun her swivel chair around and straddled her.
"Who the fuck are you?" she demanded.
You know, I never did answer her. Instead I grabbed her head and shoved it between my breasts. I held on, making sure she got enough air to survive but not enough to do anything else. Certainly not stay awake. She put up a minimal resistance, but it quickly subsided. I stood up and smiled down at her. Like I said, easy. I scooped her up and carried her down to the docks to make the trade.
The next morning my blissful sleep was ruined once again. How often can a woman get called at 5am?
"What?" I demanded.
"I'm calling on behalf of Oliver Wilson."
Now I was wide awake.
"I'm listening."
"Be here in thirty."
He hung up.
If there was one thing I hated more than being woke at 5am it's having to go to a strip club at 5am. I really had no choice, this was Oliver Wilson after all. They led me into the back office where the man himself was waiting. He was a slimy man, you know slicked back hair, pervy smile, the works. He was also one of the most powerful criminals in the city.
"Have a seat," he told me.
I did.
"I'm having trouble with one of my accountants here at the club."
I listened quietly.
