sisters odyssey - a day in a life of a contract killer

Narration by

Adra

I hate mornings, I wake up and my bones hurt, they make sounds like doors in winter. This is what being 30 feels like I guess. I have a tiny apartment because I live alone. But it’s cool. I have a nice TV as big as the wall. I don’t have much stuff in the kitchen, I only make omelets or coffee. I wake up around 11-12 in the afternoon. I brush my teeth. Put on an ice face pack. Do some cardio, I have a treadmill at my house. Then around a 100 pushups, 100 sit ups and a 100 jumping jacks. Then I go take a bath, put some aloe vera on my face. Then I watch re-runs of my favorite TV shows – Samuel science, SpongeBob and breaking bad! I also watch this anime about space cowboys, it’s great.

I do this until around 5pm, that’s when I step outside. I don’t like to go out in the day because it’s all too sunny. There are barely any clouds on mis bolas. Mis bolas is a large city built on an island near southern ireland in 1687 by many pirates of that era. It was built as a safe haven for all bandits. And now with a population of 2.22 million citizens, it is recognized as an independent nation. The nation makes most of its money from being a tourist spot for rich businessmen and a hiding spot for rich illegal businessmen. And yes, the person who named this island – mis bolas, did not speak Spanish.

Most people here are hotel workers, shopkeepers, fishermen, or straight-up criminals. When people ask me what I do, I just say – I paint houses for a living. The many far away districts are connected by a metro rail system. The station is near my house. I get in the train and it’s usually crowded at that time. I get off and go to this bar nearby called – “escapism” I know, what a pretentious name! They serve beer with sushi, why!? I don’t know, the sushi is definitely not made by a Japanese fella I can just tell. But the beer’s good so I don’t complain. I go there to meet my contractor – paco. I’ve worked with him for 8 years. He’s an old Mexican feller, I usually find him at his regular table, I go sit there, and he shows me a photo and an address written on paper. I don’t keep it with me, I just memorize the face and other details.

I get back on the train, I’m listening to music, waiting for my stop to arrive. I see a group of friends sitting across from me. The group is eating burgers and fries and having fun, making jokes, and laughing like crazy folks. They seem happy. I’ve been living here for many years. But never seem to make any friends. But I prefer it this way.  

i got off on my stop, and started walking. i came near a large mansion. Two guards were standing near the gate, went to the backside, two guards there as well. pulled out my two guns with silencers, walked up to the gate, shot both in the head before they could even speak, opened the gate, kept walking, two more men see me and draw their gun out, two more headshots, walked past them as well. But this time, one guard had yet to die, he shot a bullet in the air. The loud sound now alarmed everyone inside the mansion. Their boss – Kenny was told to hide upstairs. Eight more guards stand near the backdoor, waiting for me. But I don’t enter, to make them think I ran away. One of them slowly walks towards the door and opens it, he peeks outside. No one! He comes out, two dead at the gate and two on the lawn. Where is the shooter?

“No one’s here!” he shouts

“You sure?” I ask, hanging on to a window below the backdoor! i shoot him in the head and go in through the window!

“She’s on the second floor, hurry!” the 7 remaining men run upstairs, I’m not in the hallway!

A gunshot is heard from the boss’s room.

The guards run to the room, open the door, boss is shot dead! It was me, standing over his body, looking at the beaten naked girl in the corner! God knows what that monster had done to her.

I look at the guards! I was planning on killing Kenny and just leaving quietly, but now, after seeing that girl, I couldn’t resist. shot two more guards, the others started running away.

The 5 remaining guards ran out the backdoor, went to the previous window and shot three down. Two remaining. ran outside, saw them going towards the beach and followed,  saw one guard jump in the water and swimming away, I was going to shoot him too but… it felt familiar.. I couldn’t shoot him for some reason... It felt wrong, i let him swim away.

That’s still one remaining, a big guy with a pistol was hiding behind a nearby tree, had come out and was standing right behind me, ‘I am too close, she can’t dodge this one’ he must’ve thought. i had no idea he was behind me. He pulled the trigger and just before the bullet left the barrel, my head moved just a little to get out of the bullet’s path, it went forward, barely touching my ear!  

i quickly turned and shot the gun out of his hand. Then ran and slammed my leg right into his head, killing him instantly!

i went back to the mansion, i had to cut off Kenny’s finger! As a proof to show he’s dead

The naked girl was still in the corner, I say to her -

“They aren’t coming for you, call the police, say anything about me and I will find you, understand?”

The girl nodded. I left the mansion. Waited outside until the cops arrived and then left for the station. To go back at the “escapism”, god I hate that name!

I go sit back at paco’s table. Put Kenny’s thumb on the table. Paco holds it, inspects it

“Any witnesses?” he asks

“Two, one of them was kidnapped woman, one was a guard who… swam away!”

“Why do you do that adra?”

“Do what?”

“Let guys swim away!”

“I got the target, just like always”

“ya, and that’s great, but what is that? The swimmers, it’s very specific”

“paco I don’t want to talk about that! Stop asking me.”

“Okay, forget I said anything”

Paco pulls out an envelope full of cash, I take it. He orders two drinks for us. He knows I don’t like to talk. He insists on talking to me, say it’s so I don’t forget how to speak. He says if you don’t talk or listen to anyone for three days, you can forget language itself! I don’t believe in that crap. Paco’s an old man, he says he used to be a sailor back in the day. Worked on a mob bosses private yacht as its captain! When the boss got arrested he had to fire paco, he gave him a piece of land on mis bolas. And let him keep the yacht.

When he came here he saw many people who worked for the boss. Some of them needed “work” and some of them needed “workers” so paco became the middleman. He talks about his youth, how he misses the ocean. He wishes to one day go back with his ship, into the sea, but all his life is here. He wants a reason to go back. Without a destination – a journey is pointless after all.  

I don’t get what is so great about the ocean. I had lived there for 5 years myself, I never felt anything about it. I was just happy to be alive.

Paco ordered two beers for us. I prefer drinking in silence, but paco never ever takes the hint. I don’t reply anytime he starts a conversation, he thinks I am a good listener!

“Are scared of the ocean adra? I was a sailor back in my day and let me tell you… it is! I mean I still want to go back sailing but… It does feel like outer space! There’s nothing but water no matter where you look. So I can understand if some folks don’t like it. Sometime its kind, sometimes it’s cruel. Full of unholy creations of god! Don’t even ask about the giant squid!”

My ears stood up!

“A…a squid?”

“ooooh nononono.. More like… an octopus! A giant octopus!”

So… it wasn’t a dream! I’ve drank with this old man for so many years and he never brought up the octopus! I mean I did always tune out most of what he said. I came to this island to leave my past behind, why is it coming back now?

“Have you ever seen a giant octopus adra?” paco asked

“I…. I did. When I was 10!”

One of the underrated scenes in Spy x Family. *SPOILER ALERT*

One of my favorite things about Spy x Family is how Endo humanizes its villains I mean look at this scene:

Right from the get-go we are given a description of the guy's clear goals.

The fact that it would have been easier to kill every woman and baby on board. However, the assassin firmly states that their job is to only kill the person they are assigned to.

That guy who wanted to kill all the women and babies died by the way.... happy days.

Maps Mizguchi has finally made it yall!! I'm so freaking happy!!!

[Birds of Prey (2023) Vol. #1 - Kelly Thompson]

I didn't think I'd be this stoke about the issue Birds of Prey this badly until today. A friend had told me about this, and my jaw dropped once I read this page. My girl has finally made it into the superhero league. Although I thought she'd be ingrained into the Batfamily but it looks like she's doing her own thing.

She goes by Meridian. I'm liking the custom design as well its super mysterious.

I don't know what they have in store for "future" Maps but I'm invested.

[cyan-6-ide]

forever thinking about the bomb in bullfrogs skull. how every other character with one exploded. how he could join them at any moment. oh lord i don’t feel safe

[thotsandpreyers]

off chance could this be an opportunity for some gun control?

[canwejustgetahappilyeverafter]

So I was listening to 'strawberry wine' by Noah Kahan. 

And now it's made me think of a fic prompt for either jondami or superbat

For the title I'm thinking 'Strawberry Blues'  or the title of the song that had me think of this

So anyways the plot could be that the Kent's are selling strawberries at the farmers market and now I forgot the rest -_-

" cause I know if I don't leave now, I know I will never be able to live without you... and that scares me to my core."

[oswaldthehero]

Well meaning but kinda off the mark (but this still is a lil better than the b plot rn)

Now im gonna complain about that under the cut

so because of this one panel, we now have this

(not reposting the bailey one because I actually hate it) I can excuse the spiders all becoming otto and taking over people because thats all in cannon and whatever. (look up spiders man powers) My main gripe with this is the “how”. Like how does taking over CIVILIANS stop supernova? If these were other capes or something, it would be fine. It’s just not in Otto’s character to put all these people in danger.

If you wanna take over all of manhatten, i don’t really see how you do that and solve it in 2 issues without it being rushed. Keep in mind most comic issues have like 3-4 issue arcs, and some miles ones are like 5-6 issues. All i can really hope for is some lasting change on otto but this Superior run is def gonna leave some bad taste in people’s mouths

It Was A Long Time Ago

It was 60 years ago today that I was with my father and maternal grandmother, “shopping” at an S&H Greenstamps Store in Elizabeth, NJ. I was three and a half years old. An announcement came over the public address system that President John F. Kennedy had been shot in Dallas, TX. I was upset because I thought that Romper  Room would be going off the air. You see, each morning before Miss Nancy…

[corporatestooge]

YANDERE ASSASIN

Requests are open !

• You and your husband has been married for 2 years now. And you were happy with each other.

• You are an accountant for a company while your husband is an engineer.

• You were like any other normal couple working, eating dinner together, going out on weekends, doing the usual day to day stuff.

• But one thing you didn't knew was that well your husband is an fake engineer who pretends to be one.

• In reality he is a most sought after assasin who is hired to kill top level people.

• The "I have to go out for two days for a project darling" is nothing but a excuse he gives you to go and kill his target in another state.

• Have guns hidden in various places in your shared home for " safety purpose ".

• One time you found one of his gun and asked him why is it here? "Hehe well darling the crime rate is increasing day by day I bought it for us for our safety I even have a legal licence for the gun." (Yes a licence for being an assasin)

• This is the same man who melts into your arms, follows you around the house like a puppy, looks at you like you hung the moon and stars and also the same man who doesn't miss his target even from miles and shoots them mercilessly.

• Hits all the target in a shooting game giving you a huge stuffed teddy bear while saying "Beginner's luck, baby."

• Yan vowed in the beginning phase of his job that he would never get married due to his job risk but you entered his life, made him break his vow as he asked you to marry him after falling so desperately in love with you. How couldn't he? You are just so damn perfect.

• You mentioned in a conversation to him casually how a co worker creeped you out by his staring. Boom from next day the co-worker now always avoids you like plague. (Because some unknown assasin threatened his life if he ever came near you)

• He has never been guilty in his life for killing people or having it as job but becomes guilty in a millisecond when he sees you sad thinking how bad of a husband I am? And to make all the clarifications clear you were not sad due to him you were just having your usual period mood swings. Because no way in hell this man would ever make you sad. Before making you cry he would shoot himself with his own gun.

• You both were watching an assasin movie on a weekend and you said how good looking and skilled that assasin the movie character is.

Meanwhile Yan's Mind : Control your self yan no need to be jealous you are better than that freaking stupid looking loser assasin. y/n just doesn't know. Control.

• Yan at a Halloween night comes home after shooting his target with a little blood on his clothes wearing his assasin black clothes and a gun in hand knowing full well that you are at your friend's house. Only to be surprised that you are at home throwing him a suprise Halloween party with others. You looking at him with a confused look as he stands on doorstep shocked.

Yan : Suprise baby!!! I came up dressed up as an assain that you liked in that movie. I hope you like it. (Saying with an akward smile while telling himself to not be so reckless next time)

Meanwhile the people at party who know the true Yan : 🧍‍♂️

• Is so damn protective of you due to his work line that whenever he leaves for days makes sure your friend stays with you and making sure you are safe through all the hidden cameras spread all over the house.

• He loves you a lot. He might be a deadly assasin to the whole world but he is just a normal engineer madly in love with you who just wants to devour you whole so no one else can have you.

• Reader to their friends : My husband won't ever hurt a fly.

Meanwhile Yan listening to this conversation: 🧍‍♂️

• When he is off duty he just spoils you with his cooking and spending all his time with you cuddling watching shows and just talking.

• Prays to god that you never found out about his true job afraid that you would get scared and leave him.
