26 RUTHLESS KILLER LOOSE IN NEW YORK CITY
|
|||
|
|
27 By Franklin Pervis
|
|||
|
|
28
|
|||
|
|
29 Muggers, rapists, pickpockets and burglars abound in this bustling metropolis
|
|||
|
|
30 we call New York City. But none of these people offers the threat to our way
|
|||
|
|
31 of life as one man does.
|
|||
|
|
32
|
|||
|
|
33 That one man, who goes by the name of Delta V, kills not for profit, not for
|
|||
|
|
34 the good of mankind or any national cause, but simply for the sake of doing it.
|
|||
|
|
35 He has chosen this profession because he enjoys killing, and cannot be stopped
|
|||
|
|
36 until he himself is dead.
|
|||
|
|
37
|
|||
|
|
38 And my aim is steady and sure... I see Delta V's profile in my sights, the
|
|||
|
|
39 sights of the proverbial pen. Is the pen still stronger than the sword, or now
|
|||
|
|
40 I should say, the Walther? I suppose we will find out soon, but the pen is
|
|||
|
|
41 only mighty when the public unites in a common cause.
|
|||
|
|
42
|
|||
|
|
43 I have provided descriptions of the man in previous articles, and below it is
|
|||
|
|
44 repeated again, along with a police sketch. But he has many faces, and is
|
|||
|
|
45 extremely dangerous. If you spot him, call this paper. My editor will notify
|
|||
|
|
46 me, even though I have gone underground, and am in hiding.
|
|||
|
|
47
|
|||
|
|
48 Delta V is in a shabby hotel somewhere in this city, and my best information
|
|||
|
|
49 has it that he is in a disguise of a street person. He is after a man called
|
|||
|
|
50 McKane. Other agencies are after Delta V, but they cannot impede my efforts at
|
|||
|
|
51 exposing this threat to our very way of
|
|||
|
|
52 life.
|
|||
|
|
53
|
|||
|
|
54 Delta V... your days are numbered. You may kill one on one, or two on one, but
|
|||
|
|
55 20 million people will overwhelm you, and rush your lifeless body into the
|
|||
|
|
56 sewers where it belongs.

|
|||
|
|
64 Tariya was startled. "Who I am? You know my name."
|
|||
|
|
65 "And that's just about all I know."
|
|||
|
|
66 "But why would you want to know about me?"
|
|||
|
|
67 "I just do. You have some reason for hiding your past?"
|
|||
|
|
68 She looked down at her hands. "No. Not really."
|
|||
|
|
69 "Then tell me."
|
|||
|
|
70 "All right." she said. "My mother, Marannon Qoasis xennon-Silmarilyn, is the ruler of Shai-Kahn, and has been for
|
|||
|
|
71 the last thirteen years since my father was assasinated. I have five sisters and four brothers, all older than me.
|
|||
|
|
72 Since I am female, and youngest, there is very little chance that I will inherit the throne. Hence, the royal tutors
|
|||
|
|
73 have wasted very little time with me except for the standard education every child gets. If I was called upon to rule
|
|||
|
|
74 the province any time soon, I would be totally incapable. Though nobody has ever said so, I am considered
|
|||
|
|
75 expendable."
|
|||
|
|
76 "Jeez." James said. "I'm sorry. That's awful."
|
|||
|
|
77 "I've had seventeen years to get used to it." she smiled, a little sadly. "When I turn eighteen, the plan is to
|
|||
|
|
78 marry me off to some prince of another province who hasn't even been selected yet. This is done to strengthen
|
|||
|
|
79 relations between provinces."
|
|||
|
|
80 "And that's why you really took off, right?"
|
|||
|
|
81 "No. After all, the man I marry might be quite handsome. There are worse fates. I have an aptitude for the mystic
|
|||
|
|
82 arts. Since I was five, I have been training to become a sorceress. One day, not long ago, for some reason I still
|
|||
|
|
83 don't understand, I became bored. I wanted to see something of this universe before I commited my life to casting
|
|||
|
|
84 spells or having babies. That is really strange because I really had no desire to do anything like this before. It's
|
|||
|
|
85 almost like somebody else decided for me."
|
|||
|
|
86 Maybe somebody did, James thought. He had a naturally suspicious mind, anyway. "What about this bunch that I'm
|
|||
|
|
87 supposed to destroy."
|
|||
|
|
88 "I hope you're not to destroy the circle, for the whole government would soon collapse. There are twelve inhabited
|
|||
|
|
89 provinces on Kadan. The leaders all meet regularly at a secret, neutral location to attend to planetwide and offplanet
|
|||
|
|
90 matters. This is the Circle of Twelve. All the leaders of the provinces are accomplished conjurers, and very
|
|||
|
|
91 powerful."
|
|||
|
|
92 After a couple hours of strategic questioning he had a fairly good idea what Kadan was like. He was amazed. It
|
|||
|
|
93 didn't sound like the boring place that she had mentioned when they first met. Finally he asked, "Do you plan on going
|
|||
|
|
94 back?"
|
|||
|
|
95 "Eventually. I'll have to settle down some day. This adventuring isn't nearly as much fun as I thought it'd
|
|||
|
|
96 be."
|
|||
|
|
97 "Not with me it ain't. I'm a well-known screwup. Hang around with me and Murphy's law is gonna getcha sooner or
|
|||
|
|
98 later."
|
|||
|
|
99 "Murphy's law?"
|
|||
|
|
100 "'Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong, and at the worst possible time' I could probably add a few extra details to
|
|||
|
|
101 it."
|
|||
|
|
102 "Oh. So could I. Anyway, I've told you my story, now it's your turn."
|
|||
|
|
103 "Huh?"
|
|||
|
|
104 "Fair's fair. I want to know just exactly who YOU are."
|
|||
|
|
105 James groaned.

163 that it is yours, and is identified by the recognizable content, and not the
|
|||
|
|
164 usually rambling vaccuousness of boardborrowers. [*=*] [*=*]
|
|||
|
|
165 It was warm in Tucson, and the peace and quiet of the Hilton on Miracle Mile
|
|||
|
|
166 was a pleasant change from the open hostility of everything that was NewYork Cit
|
|||
|
|
167 y. He had had a very enjoyable day, visiting old haunts like the BumSteer on
|
|||
|
|
168 North Stone Ave, and the University area, the old Merlins Pub, a college crowd
|
|||
|
|
169 place. He reflected all this, and the events in NewYork. He remembered, almost
|
|||
|
|
170 verbatum, the words of his instructors at 'spy schol'. "People who have worked
|
|||
|
|
171 in banks for a while become indifferent to handling large amounts of cash."
|
|||
|
|
172 "It is the same with salesmen in jewellery stores;wen it's time to close,
|
|||
|
|
173 all they want to do is go home after a long day." They take the items from the
|
|||
|
|
174 display windows like men unloading bags of cement. If you miss one, thats the
|
|||
|
|
175 way it goes"
|
|||
|
|
176 "It may take a few days, but eventually, you will find that a careless clerk has
|
|||
|
|
177 left a very valuable item in the window. Passersby don't notice this, because
|
|||
|
|
178 they expect the windows to be empty..."
|
|||
|
|
179 It took two days. The store was in lower Manhattan, not that far from the
|
|||
|
|
180 wineodom of the Bowery.
|
|||
|
|
181 No one in Manhattan 'sees' anything. When Delta Five parked the stolen painters
|
|||
|
|
182 truck, and placed the ladder against the wall, no one noticed.
|
|||
|
|
183 He climbed up to the alarm bell, and squirted the cans of packaging foam inside
|
|||
|
|
184 the steel box. It hardened in seconds. The bell was silenced. He put the ladder
|
|||
|
|
185 back on the truck, and went off for a beer;killing time till it was darker.
|
|||
|
|
186 After a Budweiser or two, he went back. They were still there, 5 rings in a
|
|||
|
|
187 tray, left in the window. He took the hammer and smashed the window, and snatche
|
|||
|
|
188 d the rings. The timing was perfect. The firecrackes he had taped to the windows
|
|||
|
|
189 of several nearby stores with cigarette fuses had gone off, and, breaking the
|
|||
|
|
190 glass, set off the alarms. The cops would be busy...
|
|||
|
|
191 Trotting around the corner, he quickly reversed his jacket so it was now bright
|
|||
|
|
192 red, instead of Navy blue. Walking quickly, he put the rings in the cigarette
|
|||
|
|
193 pack, with the brown paper wrapped around it, and the stamps in place, and
|
|||
|
|
194 dropped it in a mailbox.
|
|||
|
|
195 Two days later, it was in the Postoffice box he had rented a few days before
|
|||
|
|
196 and after visiting his friend in Brooklyn again, he had 35 thousand bucks
|
|||
|
|
197 in his pocket.
|
|||
|
|
198 He lay back and sipped his Budweiser, and wondered how the "City of New York"
|
|||
|
|
199 would react to his 'deal': "This guy Pervis seems to think 20 million NewYorkers
|
|||
|
|
200 are out to get me. "Well, Mr. Koch, If that many people want to kill me, then
|
|||
|
|
201 why shouldn't I kill all of them?"
|
|||
|
|
202 "The information you now have will prove conclusively that if I arrange to
|
|||
|
|
203 expose the 'good citizens' of NewYork to the botulisms I have in my posession,
|
|||
|
|
204 I can do exactly that. Let us see if Mr. Pervis wants me bad enough to kill
|
|||
|
|
205 20 million innocent people" In other words, this guy Pervis is about to committ
|
|||
|
|
206 genocide. Dead people can not vote, Mr. Mayor. " Should I hear from Mr. Pervis
|
|||
|
|
207 again, then you know what to expect"
|
|||
|
|
208
|
|||
|
|
209 Delta V slept peacefully that night.

|
245 But what about all of the things that you do while you are not at school or
|
|||
|
|
246 doing home-work? What about all of the people that you know. All of the
|
|||
|
|
247 fun times that you have had and all that are to come. If you pull the plug
|
|||
|
|
248 now you will be cutting something short that was meant to continue, live on.
|
|||
|
|
249 This isn't the time to end, it's the time to be merry. Go out and do something
|
|||
|
|
250 nice for yourself! Go see a show, go dancing, meet new people, find some new
|
|||
|
|
251 freinds. I know it's easier said than done, but if you don't try it can never
|
|||
|
|
252 be. SO TRY! Play a little game with yourself. Say that you will meet 3 new
|
|||
|
|
253 people every day. And every day smile or say hi to as many people as possible.
|
|||
|
|
254 You'll find out that people will say hi and smile back. Just TRY for a while.

264 down with joy of his return. I wish I knew him, I would be a popular guy too!
|
|||
|
|
265 And when I entered in a message people who have been calling in before would
|
|||
|
|
266 stop leaving messages. Ah, what a life. It's a shame that only a few people
|

283 One Long Saturday...
|
|||
|
|
284 (Part 1)
|
|||
|
|
285
|
|||
|
|
286 10 AM Saturday morning. Jim Miller's head felt like somebody had set off an M-80 in it and the room kept slowly
|
|||
|
|
287 spinning but he knew that if he didn't get up and get something in his stomach, he'd be ruined for the rest of the day.
|
|||
|
|
288 That must have been some party. He wished he could remember it.
|
|||
|
|
289 He shuffled into the kitchen of his small, one-bedroom house, trying to make as little noise as possible. Thank
|
|||
|
|
290 god he didn't have to go to work today. He couldn't have imagined anything worse than having to run the car-crusher in
|
|||
|
|
291 his present condition.
|
|||
|
|
292 He pulled out a loaf of bread to make toast. Well, it was a start. He reached into the bag and pulled out a piece.
|
|||
|
|
293 It looked raw but felt suspiciously hard. How old was this stuff? He rapped the piece of bread on the counter and
|
|||
|
|
294 stared at the chip it had taken out of the linoleum. It was so stale he could hammer nails with it. If not for the
|
|||
|
|
295 preservatives it would have been a nice shade of fuzzy green by now. Jim's stomach recoiled at the image so he quit
|
|||
|
|
296 thinking about it.
|
|||
|
|
297 Disgusted, he flung the piece over his shoulder. The sound of breaking glass made him turn around. He had tossed
|
|||
|
|
298 it a bit too hard, and instead of hitting the garbage can it had gone through the window. This was shaping up to be a
|
|||
|
|
299 real swell day.
|
|||
|
|
300 There was something strange, and Jim had to do a double-take before he could figure out what it was. Through the
|
|||
|
|
301 window, which faced the field that passed for his back yard, he saw part of something made of gray metal. It looked
|
|||
|
|
302 like someone had parked a car in his back there. He hadn't been that drunk, had he?
|
|||
|
|
303 Wincing at the bright sunlight, he stared out for a better view of the thing. His jaw suddenly dropped. No. It
|
|||
|
|
304 couldn't be. Pulling open the back door, he ran out to confront the apparition.
|
|||
|
|
305 It was a flying saucer.
|
|||
|
|
306 It was about forty feet across, all made of silver metal, and stood on three legs, just like the one in 'Lost In
|
|||
|
|
307 Space'. There was a ramp exending from the bottom of the ship, and by bending down and looking, he could see inside the
|
|||
|
|
308 thing.
|
|||
|
|
309 "Greetings, sentient."
|
|||
|
|
310 Jim jumped so violently he cracked his head against the rim of the spaceship. Next thing he knew, he was lying on
|
|||
|
|
311 his back, blinking away stars, and trying to think past a headache that had suddenly grown far too large for his skull
|
|||
|
|
312 to contain. By the time he could see again, he almost wished he couldn't.
|
|||
|
|
313 Standing next to him was what had to be one of the saucer's passengers. It was about three feet tall, and had
|
|||
|
|
314 steely grey skin. It had two arms and legs and might have looked human except for the fact that it's head bulged
|
|||
|
|
315 grotesquely above the eyes and it had no chin, making it look like a light bulb. The creature wore a skintight blue
|
|||
|
|
316 uniform and was completely hairless, as far as Jim could see. All thoughts of a possible practical joke faded away.
|
|||
|
|
317 Either that booze last night was a helluva lot stronger that he thought and he was having D.T.s, or he was about to
|
|||
|
|
318 have a close encounter of the worst kind. He didn't know which hypothesis he preferred.
|
|||
|
|
319 He sat up and gasped when he saw that there were more of them. Six, to be precise. As he stared around, the one
|
|||
|
|
320 closest to him spoke again in unaccented english. "Are you injured? You became still so suddenly we feared you might
|
|||
|
|
321 have terminated your life force."
|
|||
|
|
322 Jim felt the bump on his head and said, "Uh, no. I'm all right. Who or what are you?"
|
|||
|
|
323 The creature executed a complicated bow and declared, "Please accept our apologies for bad manners. We know very
|
|||
|
|
324 little of earth culture. My designation is Amogo." it (he?) gestured around at the others. "These are my shipmates
|
|||
|
|
325 Genis, Helak, Fodon, Sejit, and Mogon."
|
|||
|
|
326 And I used to look forward to Saturdays, Jim thought wearily. "Well, let me extend greetings on behalf of planet
|
|||
|
|
327 earth." He held out a hand and the little alien gravely shook it. His skin was cold, just like metal. "Let me guess,
|
|||
|
|
328 you're here to give us the secrets of the universe, right?"
|
|||
|
|
329 "Oh, no no no." protested Amogo. "We are an advance scout."
|
|||
|
|
330 "Scout for what?" Jim asked, a little warily.
|
|||
|
|
331 "Depending on the content of the report we return with, our empire intends to conquer and enslave this planet."

|
|
383 3. This product is provided "as is", without warranty of any

|
394
|
|||
|
|
395 5. The vendor agrees to provide techincal support at a scale of
|

|

451 John decided the spy biz wwas pure hell.
|
|||
|
|
452 NEXUS had demoted him to field agent several weeks ago, and he'd been in
|
|||
|
|
453 the retraining program ever since. Yesterday, he finished. NEXUS promptly
|
|||
|
|
454 assigned him to the Delta V/NET affair- the last thing on earth he wanted to
|
|||
|
|
455 be assigned to.
|
|||
|
|
456 At least he still had his toolkit. John had been allowed to keep it since
|
|||
|
|
457 he had proven his skill with electronics long ago. His masterpiece had been
|
|||
|
|
458 the FD-78, the only completely self-motivated vehicle. It had called itself
|
|||
|
|
459 Fred.
|
|||
|
|
460 The memory summoned up other thoughts that rose as ghosts would from their
|
|||
|
|
461 graves. If only UNDERGROUND hadn't found it necessary to sell it. If only-
|
|||
|
|
462 Damn that Farley! The louse probably had run it off a cliff by now.
|
|||
|
|
463 John composed himself, then looked out over the country he was passing over.
|
|||
|
|
464 He could just make out the glow from New York's lights. Soon the plane would
|
|||
|
|
465 land. Then, to find out what was so important about Delta V. NET was
|
|||
|
|
466 mixed in it somehow- maybe Parity, Fellows, and Farley. John searched through
|
|||
|
|
467 his toolkit and pulled out the modified welding laser. Only two shots, then
|
|||
|
|
468 back to projectile weapons. I'll make do.
|
|||
|
|
469 Farley was gonna suffer the world's first case of fatal heartburn.

480 THE THIN WISP OF SMOKE AGINST THE BACKDROP OF EVERGREENS WAS THE ONLY INDICATION
|
|||
|
|
481 OF TROUBLE THAT AMAHL COULD SEE. YET, IT WAS ENOUGH FOR HIM TO TURN HIS FLOATER
|
|||
|
|
482 TOWARDS THE FOREST. AS HE CAME OVER THE RISE, HE COULD JUST MAKE OUT THE IMAGE
|
|||
|
|
483 OF TWISTED METAL AT THE EDGE OF THE TREES. THE FLOATER RUMBLED AS HE POURED ON
|
|||
|
|
484 POWER FOR A QUICK PASS OVER THE WRECK. IT WOULD NOT BE HEALTHY TO LINGER NEAR A
|
|||
|
|
485 FRESH WRECK, WHATEVER CAUSED IT MIGHT VERY WELL DECIDE TO DO THE SAME TO HIM.
|
|||
|
|
486 THE COMPUTER TRACKED CAMERAS WOULD TELL HIM JUST WHAT HAPPENED ANYWAY.
|
|||
|
|
487 SWEEPING OVER AT A COOL 450MPH, HE PASSED OVER THE WRECK AND A JET OF FLAME
|
|||
|
|
488 SPOUTED AFTER HIM, FOILED BY HIS SPEED. WELL, WHATEVER WAS DOWN THERE WASN'T
|
|||
|
|
489 IT JUST MIGHT NEED A FEW GAS BOMBS TO QUIET IT DOWN. OH WELL, WHY BOTHER? A
|
|||
|
|
490 LOOK AT THE CAMERAS TOLD HIM THAT A FIRE PLANT HAD SNAGGED SOME KIND OF SMALL
|
|||
|
|
491 FLOATER, PROBABLY SOME YOUNG GUYS SOUPED UP RIG. FIREPLANTS OPERATED ON A
|
|||
|
|
492 COMPLEX PLUMBING ASSORTMENT IN SYMBOSIS WITH DECAY ORGANISMS. TRIGGERED BY
|
|||
|
|
493 MOTION, THEY SHOT A METHANE PRESSURIZED JET OF ALCOHOL, IGNITED BY SOME KIND OF

|
|

|

|
|
499 Great dred fills my heart as I step cautiously upon the
|
|||
|
|
500 small foot bridge. The worn boards creak softly beneath my step.
|
|||
|
|
501 The worn timbers belied their inner strength. Though they lacked
|
|||
|
|
502 the external beauty of newly cut wood, their strength was drawn
|
|||
|
|
503 from the winter hardened woods of the highlands. They had
|
|||
|
|
504 withstood the years of many feet, and would stand for many more.
|
|||
|
|
505 I stopped at the railing. How long ago had it been since
|
|||
|
|
506 last I stood here? It seems like an eternity. It has been in many
|
|||
|
|
507 ways. How many friends have come this way? How many have gone?
|
|||
|
|
508 The wind ripples the water, shattering the pure reflection
|
|||
|
|
509 of the moon as it shattered my thoughts. I once met a friend in
|
|||
|
|
510 this place while lost in the great dark forests. But where is
|
|||
|
|
511 that friend now? The warm glow from the nearby Inn momentarily
|
|||
|
|
512 shines upon the ground as a noisy group of patrons stumble out
|
|||
|
|
513 the door.
|
|||
|
|
514 Releasing the railing, I moved in the direction of the Inn,
|
|||
|
|
515 stoping at the sturdy oak tree outside the Inn, I admire how well
|
|||
|
|
516 it has grown in the time I had last seen it. Though its leaves
|
|||
|
|
517 were gone in it's winter state, it still stood firm and proud.
|
|||
|
|
518 And there next to the oak... the ever present Rowan tree
|
|||
|
|
519 stood tall and firm. Ah the memories it brought out. Quickly
|
|||
|
|
520 moving to the Inn to avoid the tears that were welling up in my
|
|||
|
|
521 eyes. I swung open the door to be greeted by a gust of warm air
|
|||
|
|
522 from within the Inn laden with smells and noise of the people
|
|||
|
|
523 within. Firming my resolve, I step inside to see what has become
|
|||
|
|
524 of this place since last I had been here.
|
|||
|
|
525 Of the Inn itself, nothing had really changed. Some of it
|
|||
|
|
526 the worse for wear, but largely still the Inn. But the people and
|
|||
|
|
527 the atmosphere, there does seem a change there. No familar faces
|
|||
|
|
528 appeared in the crowd, and the happy friendly feeling of
|
|||
|
|
529 companionship seems to be gone. It is as if the Inn now catered
|
|||
|
|
530 to mercenaries instead of adventurers.
|
|||
|
|
531 The air seems heavy and dark. Where are the bright happy
|
|||
|
|
532 faces redened by the glow of the fire that I once knew?

543 "Eleventh Floor. Weapons, armor, traps, bombs, thermonuclear devices." The
|
|||
|
|
544 cool, sexless voice of the elevator chased Parity's daydream away, forcing his
|
|||
|
|
545 attention to the now open sliding door, and the brightly lit hallway beyond.
|
|||
|
|
546 "Please observe all safety precations." The door slid shut just as Parity
|
|||
|
|
547 stepped out into the hall. Strategically placed signs pointed the way to the
|
|||
|
|
548 various offices and laboratories on the 11th floor, but Parity ignored their
|
|||
|
|
549 direction. He already knew which way he needed to go. Ian's instructions had
|
|||
|
|
550 been clear enough. '...after discussing the reorganization with me, go to the
|
|||
|
|
551 11th floor and wait for Agent Fellows. He will meet you at 1130 hours...'
|
|||
|
|
552 Ian was always succint and to the point. Sometimes he was too succint.
|
|||
|
|
553 Parity tore his gaze from the floor and stopped walking. He was standing
|
|||
|
|
554 before an unmarked orange door. He took a key from his right front pocket,
|
|||
|
|
555 unlocked and opened the door, and stepped inside. The door closed without
|
|||
|
|
556 assistance. Parity replaced the key in his pocket and sat down in one of the
|
|||
|
|
557 three chairs that occupied the otherwise sparse room. Parity looked up at
|
|||
|
|
558 an electronic clock on the wall. It's LED readout said 9:30AM. He had two
|
|||
|
|
559 hours to wait for agent Fellows. He knew the time would pass quickly.

574 since the War? That was the last thing I attended.

575 About Reno: My "gainful" employment was that of Change Person; I was
|
|||
|
|
576 catering to gamblers, envying the card dealers, and watching
|
|||
|
|
577 the prostitutes. I came home broke, but with bills paid.
|
|||
|
|
578 I have seen a lot of old friends poke their heads into the Inn lately,
|
|||
|
|
579 and it is fun to see what they have to say and what they've been doing.
|
|||
|
|
580 (Sheep dip indeed...) This is my favorite way to spend an evening...
|
|||
|
|
581 968: When I was in high school, I felt the same way you do (or did when
|
|||
|
|
582 you wrote). It took me 3 years on my own and a second try at college to
|
|||
|
|
583 show me that there really are people out there that think the way you do
|
|||
|
|
584 and appreciate the same things you do. Never give up on anything - even
|
|||
|
|
585 yourself - just because no one seems to care. You are you, or whateveritis
|
|||
|
|
586 is special to you, and if other people can't appreciate that, #$@%&* them.
