“I’d said you cannot hide forever”.
He wasn’t sure if that threat was stanced. Should his glottis had transported a fiercer phrase, conceived and nurtured by indifference? He wasn’t sure. There was no need to be. His tongue had been faster than his heart, he couldn’t stop it, how would he have? He would have to tarry, tarry till he’s up with his larynx chip off old block: the serial killer.
There he was, the long sought Murderer. The swift finger. Invincible tiger. The invisible traitor. The reincarnated offshoot of knavery. Sworn Serial Killer. He was standing, right before the leader of the FBI, Thomas Dwayne. That was archetyped to a dream come true. That was the 10th year of his hide and seek. Twas like forever impossible: to apprehend him. And now, there he stood, in his usual regalia: Black body-hug cardigan, its cap hanging from his head down to the tip of the spectatles worn over those two eye balls that have known evil from his days as a Shaver: Covering them in an irony of their blindness to sundry dark scenes they’d seen his hand trialblazed.
Truth be told, Dwayne fought his heart against the supposition it had settled for: Cade brought himself to be caught. Could that be veracious? That didn’t matter. It wouldn’t be. Not at this moment. But come to think of it. Why would he have zero in on treading the government path that’d been publicly announced to be hundred -to-one to him on the TV by CNN? Perhaps, there was a snake in Cade’s bag. Let there be! Dwayne shunned the voice. He was ready for the worst. After all, apprehending Cade would throw him higher in the field. He wouldn’t care what would be done. Anything would be done: to get this Mephistophelian Character down!
Within two weeks, Cade had been several persons, a ritual of serial killing. He’d checked into the Gwenny’s Hotel and Suits as Raymond Buckley, through, he’d checked out. He’d gotten on a plane traveling to East Michigan, on his Visa as Terren Brad. Gotten off, he’d gotten admitted into the public Museum as Ivan Rodriguez, an ID card belonging to the antipodal person he executed: Heaven knew how he’d manipulated the picture on the Identity Card. From there, he’d Paged Dwayne with the rhetoric:
“If I allow you, into what art will you mend me? “.
Dwayne had grinned, took that upon himself as a slap, a challenge, big one on his physiognomy. He’d left there immediately, and now, there he was towering over him with doubt.
Cade said nothing. Perhaps no need. Perhaps there was, but he refused to let go. He was mute, just like Wright’s Bigger Thomas. He watched the leader of the FBI dangle the gun on his hand, moved closer to him, ordered his hands up and let him push him toward the members of FBI.
In a jiffy, the news of the apprehension had telegraphed like the roar of an hungry lion, jerking attentions of all citizens in Detroit. Heads were hanging in awe mingled with disbelief as the traitor edged toward the van that would show him the way to the other side of life. Almost at the van, Cade dropped his hands, fumbling through the pocket on the side of the cardigan hastily. At that, all the FBI members got ready, with their riffles curious to vomit bullets, nobody knew what Cade was up to. Perhaps he was trying to get his gun and do justice to the fucking law keepers.
Yes! He brought out his handkerchief, and got rid of the sweat hanging proudly on the edge of his temple.
