I gazed out the window of my private limousine as it carried me to the scene of the crime. I scowled as I took in the desolate landscape. It looks worse in real life than it did in the pictures. Oh Katrina, what the hell have you done? "Stop here," I said to the limousine driver.

She pulled over onto the decimated sidewalk and I stepped out of the vehicle. I lifted my hand to shield my face from the sun as I surveyed the damage. An entire street was blown to oblivion, and the Annihilation Code is gone with it. I lit a Hazebriar cigarette and took a long drag. We're going to have a hell of a time covering this up.

My assistant, Quentin Holgate, came barreling down the road towards me. "Miss Spoketon, I wasn't expecting you to be here so soon."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PdkLqgxaU
I blew a large puff of smoke into his face. "I'm not happy, Quentin. I'm not happy at all."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbJGj5WrFo
He coughed. "Of course not, Miss Spoketon. We're working to rectify the situation as we speak."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06bGt1O30c
"Please tell me, how do you plan to rectify all of this?"
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAkYJ9Uff1
"Well, the construction team is working tirelessly around the clock to repair the damage and all the news outlets are reporting it as a tragic accident caused by a malfunction in the island's mechanics."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHVtULXYKn
I gave an approving nod as I stared out at the wreckage. How can one girl cause so much trouble?
"Where is Oblivion?"
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34gN3u9eM2
We've been unable to locate her.
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3abAWpTuR
I glowered. "That wretched girl doesn't appreciate anything I've done for her! Send out a search team to track her, she couldn't have gotten far."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbDahuyJUo
If I may, Miss Spoketon. I am not convinced that's a good use of company resources. She mostly likely perished in the explosion. I think we should focus our efforts elsewhere."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHnAS6rHjL
I shot daggers in his direction. "That's funny, I don't recall asking for your opinion on the matter, Quentin."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgV63pcGUz
"You didn't but–"
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEj8q1O0ko
"Don't you dare talk back to me! Now do exactly as I say, or you're fired!"
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtyvhB6Z9j
"Yes, ma'am," He stammered. He typed out a message to our team to alert them of my orders. I could tell by the look on his face Quentin thought I was a delusional old woman.
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9YZJJL6hw
He could believe whatever he wanted; I don't care. I know Oblivion is alive. Just the other day, I received a message from an anonymous sender. It read, Hey Marjorie, did you miss me? I have some Bionic Corp secrets I've been dying to share with the world, and I'm going to leak them soon. So, if you'd like to silence me, just like you silenced my mother, you'll have to come and find me. Good luck! I'll be waiting! —O. She sent that message with a winky face attached. Not many people have my contact information, and the ones that do would never be so bold as to taunt me like this. She sent me a winky face for God's sake! Who the hell does she think she is? I am the most powerful person in the world and I won't tolerate being disrespected.

"I assume Curseword 2.0 has been taken care of."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7iVIWV3AH
His voice quavered, "Um, unfortunately, we've been unable to assassinate Atlas Contreras."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9mFgSKxUI
"He's still alive!" I shouted, not caring who overheard.
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6s4KIFJBu
Drops of spittle fell onto Quentin's face, and he wiped them off with his sleeve. "We've tried. He's left the bodies of our assassins on our doorstep."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cPLyEMN3W
I clenched my jaw. This is what I get for creating the perfect assassin. A target we can't kill.
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi06eXw2BV6
I took a long drag of my cigarette. "Do you have any good news for me, Quentin?"
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2oZT64Y2o
"The cloning chambers were mostly unharmed, and Curseword 3.0 is ready to begin training. If he's anything like his predecessors, he should be ready for missions in no time."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn3yqOcyCE
I tossed my cigarette on the ground and stomped on it. "Good. Katrina was a sorry excuse for an assassin. It's time we get back to the basics, don't you think?"
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0WPXRXbZR
He nodded.
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAaOVRuR5e
"Contact the science division and tell them to begin developing a new Annihilation Code."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllUriil4OZ
"Yes, mam."
250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7Ffg8vHOz
The end.
