Chapter 420 - Day MDCCCXLVII, Part II
Samantha jumped out of the bed and started picking her underwear from the floor. She managed to slide into her panties, as I loudly asked:
– Who’s there?
– Aisha. We are leaving for the shoot. Wolf told us you won’t be coming because you have something to talk about with the agents, but I still think you should come.
– I… I can’t, it’s important.
She sighed so loud that I could hear it even through the closed door.
– Fine. I’ll take care of everything myself.
Then there was a few seconds of silence. Samantha exhaled with relief.
– Peter? It’s Wolf. I brought the agents… Can I come inside?
The panic on her face immediately returned, as she looked me straight in the face.
– What do we do?! – she whispered.
All the confidence from before was gone.
– Get back in the bed – I said. – and cover yourself up.
– Should I pretend to be asleep?
– No…
I sighed and went to open the door. I made the void chair disappear behind me. Wolf and two others were standing there. They both were tall brunettes with short hair. Cleanly shaved. One had a big hooked nose, and brown eyes, the other was actually quite handsome with his pointy chin, and high cheekbones.
– Good morning gentlemen. Come inside – I said to them, and moved to the side, to let them in.
All three of them did go inside, and I closed the door. I noticed as one by one they stopped for a moment when they got into the main room. Probably because of Samantha.
– Are you sure it’s the right moment, mister Peter? – asked Wolf.
– Yes, I am – I said tailing them.
They made some space for me, going deeper, but I still stood in the middle of the passage, blocking the exit. All of them noticed that.
– Hi guys – said Samantha.
– Ma’am – was their somewhat awkward response.
– These are agents Russ Parker – Wolf pointed first at the hooked nose guy, then at the handsome one – and Francis Butler.
– So, might we know why were we invited here? – asked Russ.
– You didn’t tell them? – I asked Wolf.
– If I did, they would never come, and the higher-ups would block this whole thing.
The two guys looked at him confused.
– What is this about? – asked Francis, as he also peaked towards the balcony.
– It’s about the survival stuff you placed in this room – I said.
– But… – Parker looked at Wolf again.
– I told them that I took it all down – he explained, then turned to them again – Sorry guys, but I told you this will end like that.
I noticed as Butler’s hand went slowly to his belt, and shadow walked straight to him, then grabbed him by the face, and froze his hand using ‘Telekinesis’.
I turned on ‘Shadow fusion’ a little, so my body would change, and also used ‘Eyes of the Void’. Russ immediately attempted to grab his gun, but I reacted faster ad picked him up with the ‘Telekinesis’, then slammed his back on the ceiling, quite gently actually. I made sure he couldn’t move his hands.
Samantha squeaked, as he went flying.
– Listen you little shits. I hate when people fuck with me, but thankfully for you, I’m a big believer in second chances, so you are officially given yours. Don’t fuck it up.
– You think you can scare the CIA?! – said Francis through his greeted teeth.
– Yeah, I do – I replied, and shadow walked with him, to just turn around, then I pushed him so he fell on the floor.
The reaction was immediate. His eyes went wide, just like the mouth, and a terrified expression crippled all over his face, as his fingers tried to grab onto something, while he was suffocating out of sheer fear.
– What did you do? – asked Wolf.
He also was getting scared, just like Samantha.
– I showed him my kingdom.
– I-is he dying? – she asked.
– No. Just scared out of his mind. And you fucker… – I turned to look at the guy stretched on the ceiling, unable to move a muscle. – You are coming down.
I dropped him and prevented him from hitting the floor just by few centimeters.
– Peter, please – mumbled Wolf.
– Shut up. Nobody is dying here, but that fucker won’t tell me to my face that I’m not scary, when he doesn’t know shit – I said, and walked closer to Butler on the floor, and kneeled next to him. – Now breathe, or I’ll throw you back there again.
He immediately inhaled, as his eyes almost got out of the sockets. He started greedily breathing.
Now you two Will have a job – I continued, turning all my skills of, so Russ finally hit the floor. – If I ever find again in any of the hotels, or other rooms I will be staying in this country any piece of fucking survivance over me, I’m gonna find you. And remember, you don’t have any more chances, so if I do, you will both end up in the place you just visited.
I lowered my face, getting slowly closer to Butler’s. He was shivering in fear.
– Do we understand each other?
He nodded, a lot.
– Yes, we do – said Russ.
– Good. Now get the fuck of my room, and never speak to anybody about what happened here. Trust me, I will find out, and you don’t want that.
– Me too? – asked Wolf, as the others picked themselves from the floor, and left almost running.
[0)ᴠʟ – No. You might sit – I pointed at the sofa.
He nodded, swallowing nervously, and slowly walked towards the table, to sit down.
– H-how c-can I help you, Peter? Mister! Mister, Peter…
– Oh come on, don’t be scared. You didn’t do anything wrong this time. I did what I did, so they would stop being all high and mighty CIA agents, and started playing fair. You have to admit that placing this stuff in this room was kinda a dick move.
– O-ok. S-so, can I go?
– No. We need to talk. You, me, and your friend Zander. Can you organize that later?
– S-should we come here? – he peeked over his shoulder at Samantha.
She wasn’t scared as she was before, but still remained silent, observing.
– Hell no! I’ll come to visit you. How about later, in the evening.
– O-ok. He should be back from the trip to the show.
– Yeah… Now you might go – I waved my hand, and he almost bolted.
Then I looked at Samantha, waiting for her to say something, and worrying if making her stay was really a good idea.
