"Your Story" Entry jannycats

It was still snowing when I started following my killer. The sky was darkened and my watch showed 01:16AM. I stuck to the shadows and was more careful than ever... Though I was in charge of the paperwork, I was sure to get my hands on a powerful gun. My little hacker friend made sure of that...

I tightened my gloved hands and moved on, still keeping an eye on Mr. Morgan, careful to exist as only a shadow to him. The man stopped for a few seconds in a deserted back alley. I followed. From a backdoor a woman emerged, passing by the the killer that was in the shadows, right behind her. He wasted no time and pulled out a syringe from his pocket and sedated his victim. I recognized the woman, a low-life thief that had escaped from prison. And now she was being dragged into a large, dark and run-down building nearby.

The inside was grotesquely metallic, full of mechanisms, chains and broken devises. The man dragged his victim in a large shadowy room and prepared to open a tiny container full of tools. But he stopped.

I held my breath as he slowly turned his head in my direction. The killer got up and grabbed a knife that was sitting on the floor, near him. He came closer. I knew I had no choice. I jumped out of my hiding spot and aimed my gun at his head. I was aware that he could still kill me in a second, giving his surgical accuracy and speed. I was a little shaken.

"Who are you?" he said in a cold, almost robotic voice.

"That doesn't matter" I said in the same manner "let go of that knife or I'll shoot you right now."

What was I saying?! He knew I was going to shoot him anyway, he could tell that I was shaken. Dammit, I needed to focus!

"I know who you are, I know every last detail about you." I said, trying to find a weak spot.

The man simply ignored my remark, he slowly walked towards me. His stature seemed more frightening than ever, his eyes were shinning, yearning to finish the job with his prey. But I was in the way... Almost in a flash, he seemed to disappear from his spot, and now he was right in front of me, holding a gun to my head. But my weapon had also moved, and was staring at his stomach. When had he grabbed that gun? And who would act first?

"I... know why you kill." I said mumbling "I know why you only kill bad people."

For a moment the killer's eyes seemed to light up and he actually listened.

"If you do, then it's just another reason to kill you right here" the man said coldly.

His left hand moved faster than before and, before I knew it, he swiped the gun from my hand and threw it aside. I was in trouble, my heart was racing.

"I know that you want to eliminate all evil from this world" I continued, uncertain of what would happen "You think such people don't deserve to live, you think the world would be cleaner and safer without them."

The man prepared to shoot, I could tell. My senses sharpened. But I continued talking, hoping to distract him, somehow.

"You're not as careful as the others think, you leave trails behind... because you want to be known one day... you want people to know you as the one that cleanses the world of evil..."

The killer stared at me like I was a pathetic bug that was about to be crushed. Why wasn't he shooting yet?

"You hate evil and want to eliminate it... but you know what the difference between us is?" I continued.

The man seemed intrigued, and he listened. That was my chance! I gathered all my strength and focused it into my left leg as I hit him in the stomach. The man fell on his back and released the weapon. I rushed to grab the one I had dropped at aimed it at his head again.

"You know why we're different, Morgan?" I said coldly "Even though we both love to kill and we both want to clean the world of evil... there is one difference..."

The man stared at me, thinking of a way out, trying to outsmart me once again. But it was too late.

"I want to be the God of this evil-free world... but I won't let *you* steal the throne."

The gun let out a satisfying shot as I pulled the trigger. The killer was motionless.
