Dave struggled to adjust the seat he was bound to so he could at least get his foot to the dagger…
During the past six hours he had become acutely aware of his limitations, Which counted as an achievement considering that he had been raised to believe he has no limitations, He had always been on the “fast lane”……now he wasn’t even sure he was a pedestrian.
He understood that he might be the architect of his life, But he could not longer believe that he was the master of his fate.
After a long bout of constant trial and error, He finally got the dagger and cut the rope….. And in time too, He heard one of the men approaching and quickly crouched behind the slightly open door with the dagger still in his hand, And for the first time since he was brought here he was pleased with the poor lighting of the room.
The footsteps grew louder, He tightened his grip on the dagger, As soon as the man stepped into the room Dave went for his jugular with the precision of a predator in one swift motion……And in that instant blood was all over the place…..the floor, the carpet, the chair and also Dave’s shirt.
Dave saw the mess he had made and knew he had to move fast before the others arrive, He didn’t even bother checking the man for signs of life because he was certain no human would survive a deep cut to the throat.
He looked through the only window in the room and he thought of jumping down….
All it takes is a leap of faith….
More like a leap of fate
Maybe if he was Superman or Deadpool, Then he could jump down from a four storey building with a smile on his face…. But until then he’ll make use of his common reasoning, He bent down to search the dead man.
A pistol, A car key, a pack of cigarettes and a chocolate bar
He took the pistol and of course the chocolate bar, He was really hungry and he couldn’t imagine death on an empty stomach.
While eating the chocolate bar, He looked at the dead weight on the floor and a thought occurred to him.
Infiltrate the enemy with the enemy….
And he laughed at himself for being so dangerous and unpredictable…..
Quick question…. Is Dave a bigger threat to the enemy than Diego??
