Simon Raines pondered on whether bringing about his own death would be suicide or murder. Either way, Simon had to die.

The problem is in the execution, he thought. He allowed himself a smirk when he caught the pun. Just how would he go about taking his life without affecting his very meticulously laid out plans for the future? He would have to hide. Hide himself away in a place where no one would look. The most unexpected location possible. He needed a place away from anywhere a soul would think to investigate, even if they had hundreds of years to uncover it. Immortality unseen was his ultimate goal, just to be sure, impossible as it seemed. They could never find him if he were to succeed.

Somewhere even he himself wouldn’t even think of looking.

Then, he’d not see his own death coming.
