《Fais Toi Plaisir》Chapter 5: No Family Bond

“Hey, Cole. Do you know my full name?” Uncle asked.
The question caught me off guard.
“You never became curious why you and your twin never carried a surname.” He continued.
Mom’s name was Anne Lee.
Dad’s was Brennon Callahan.
Reimi and I never carried any of their names.
We were just Cole and Reimi.
“You’re Von Callahan,” I answered.
“Both of you, is Callahan.” He said.
Uncle told me to stir up a storm in Morocco. He wanted the name of The Prideful to be known overseas too.
What a gaffe.
3 hours later.
Man seen killing 20 people in the local bazaar.
This should be enough. I just shot them up with a Tommy.
I ran and hid inside an abandoned car. It was fine.
I had 2 more days to stay in Morocco before going to Asia.
I left my brand at the scene before fleeing.
“This car is too hot.” As I said with sweat falling.
I went out and walked away calmly to not get attention.
I passed some people in a costume party listening to some sea shanties.
Maybe Great-Great-Great Forefather even sang it.
“Leave her Johnny, leave her…” I sang with a soft voice.
He probably had the largest kill count considering he was a pirate. He wasn’t in the photo album. There were a dusty pair of cutlasses at the storage.
How funny, two families laid with blood and destruction met and had probably the deadliest generation.
Cole Callahan and Reimi Callahan.
Our cousins in the restaurant left the killings to us. They were Mom’s side. Dad’s side of cousins are nowhere to show up and say hi.
Uncle Von has daughters. All away in a job or something.
Mom was a single child so we don’t have any cousins on the Lee side of the family.

I walked away and stayed at my hotel. I slept a whole day.
My coat is dirty, I should clean it up.
Should’ve known that the place would be filled with cops.
Should I wear a suit and tie below the coat or just wear a turtleneck below the coat?
Picking takes too much time. I wore the one with the turtleneck.
“Looking good, killer,” I said as I finger gun the mirror.
I took my knives and the barbed rope.
…………
This feeling… Someone’s looking at me.
I walked to the window to find where that person is.
“There it is.”
I gave the person the finger and walked out of my room with everything I have.
“Check out,” I said at the receptionist.
It’s my last day in Morocco. I should have fun. Just stay away from the bazaar.
Police and military on high alert. I should ask Uncle to pick me up. He has a yacht. He should be able to use his connections.
I was checking through my phone for news in the States.
They’re all about my spree yesterday. I left all my bloody handprints near each victim. They should really see that as a clue.
It’s literally a handprint. There won’t be any fingerprints.
I walked around the city to get some air.
Vroom. Vroom.
Jeez, sports cars. I have a vintage car to avoid attention. I think it just adds more. In the era full of modern cars, having a vintage one is a bit eye-catching.
As I walk down the street sipping my coffee, I saw a lost kid.
“Hey, you lost?” I asked. It was a little girl. She nodded as she shook my hand. I asked her name.
“I’m Sophia.” She answered.
I brought her to the police station for her to be safe.

She was 8-13 years old.
When she shook my hand, it was a firm grip. She probably uses a bat.
Bold of me to just waltz to a police station when I killed 20 people last night.
She seems like a good kid.
Anyways, I should find my way to the pier. As I walk, I kept thinking.
“Who is it that took the pictures of every killer in the family throughout the decades?”
From the 1700s to the 1980s.
Something that we can’t explain is happening.
This thinking makes my head hurt like hell. I’m nearing Dock 12 anyways. Uncle’s yacht should be there.
My next stop is Portugal or Spain. The trip will probably take 3 days. The captain isn’t here yet. I should find a nearby coffee shop.
I saw a group of teens, they were just living their lives like normal.
I sometimes envy them. I grew up with death around me.
I stopped and look through the horizon.
“What a gaffe.”
Reimi is probably on a job somewhere in Morocco or she already has been out the country.
Uncle might be doing more deals and contracts for jobs for his assassins.
The cousins are just running the restaurant, all peaceful and quiet.
I leaned at the pier’s barriers. Thinking of how fun it could’ve been growing up peaceful.
25 years of life, most of it studying the art of death.
I should probably go back to the States.
Killing people for so long, it becomes boring. I should retire and sell clothes or something.
I felt a tap on my shoulder, when I turned around it was the captain.
“Come, it’s time to sail.”
I followed him to Dock 12, he explained that Uncle had to pull some strings for this voyage to work.
I boarded the yacht and we were on our merry way.
I read some books and did things to pass the time.
I went to my room and laid on my bed.
There was a note in my closet.
“Don’t trust anyone. Try not to die.”
I took hooks and a knife with me.
Sleep with one eye open. I can feel when there is bloodlust around me.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Heels? A woman. I don’t remember there being a woman aboard. It was only the captain and 3 sailors. All of them were male.
I stood up and hid in the closet hoping to get her by surprise.
The footsteps came closer, I saw the shadow. It was a woman. When she came into the room, she had a gun.
She’s of Caucasian descent. Blonde with a bun. She has heterochromia. Green-eyed on the left, blue on the right.
She looks like a sharpshooter.
This will be fun.

Superworld
Matt Callaghan is in trouble. In a world where everyone has superpowers, he's got squat, and has spent the last five years faking being clairvoyant just to avoid getting caught. Unfortunately, Matt's lies have started to catch up to him, and when a desperate bluff backfires he'll need every ounce of cunning, conning and juvenile delinquency to stay undetected and alive. Jane Walker is trouble. In a world where everyone is powerful, Jane stands alone and apart, hated for her ability to copy abilities and atrocities far beyond her control. But fate is a fickle friend, and a chance encounter soon finds Jane hurtling towards her lifelong dream - or prejudice, humiliation and a violent, painful death. Unbeknownst to them, Matt and Jane’s paths are inextricably intertwined, and as each struggles to find their place an unseen force will draw them ever forward – closer and closer to a secret whose existence threatens not just their lives, but the fate of the entire world. A loving homage to and twist on the superhero genre, Superworld is a fun, subversive story about identity, empathy, connection and courage which has been called “very entertaining and creative” and “an absolute pleasure” by readers, and "completely unreadable" by the author's blind grandfather.

A cataclysm occurred in the world, which rolled back its development for many centuries. The power in it returned to the church, because otherwise, as the "2nd coming", the event that destroyed the earth, cannot be called. A big war is brewing, humanity has already mastered all places suitable for life, and the rulers are trying to expand their possessions at the expense of others. Our hero, Marzio, lives in one of the free Italian towns. He is the bastard of a major feudal lord who made his name in the war. His mother, despite her righteous lifestyle, practices quackery. For which one day, on an unremarkable and ordinary day, she is sentenced to death. Seeing the burning of his own mother and losing faith in people, Marzio begins his journey. Thanks to the connections of his small family, he escapes from the city and, together with a trade caravan, moves to another city, where he plans to enter the academy and become stronger. Along the way, he contacts people who call themselves "diggers" - plunderers. So, he finds himself in the ruins of the old world, which was much more developed and finds more and more evidence of the terrible secret of the true cause of the fall of the world, which the church so zealously hides. But the second coming gave not only the suffering and wrath of God, but also monsters from mutated animals. In a fight with them, he falls into the eyes of the detachment of the sacred order, after which they, having estimated its potential, take it to themselves and, with their patronage, he enters the academy. At the academy, he meets new friends, and his origin is revealed there. Since he is the only male descendant, he can claim the title and possession of his father. Thanks to this, our hero receives a certain amount of attention from the opposite sex. After training, Marzio learns about the so-called knowers who are aware of the artifacts of the ancients and how things truly are. New prospects are opening up for him, but also new dangers. He becomes part of the squad that helped him. And using modern for us and futuristic for the Middle Ages, small arms are engaged in protecting the secrets of the church and persecuting a group calling themselves apostates, who want to reveal all the cards that will drive the world into a new branch of chaos and the fight against the regime. As cover, his order sided with minor rulers to fight the old-fashioned way and maintain the balance of power. More and more secrets are revealed to Marzio, and a serious intriguing game unfolds behind him, into which he is sucked in with more and more force. But the hero is the hero, in order to grow and cope with the twists and turns of fate, he stoically withstands all trials and even not knowing about the threats from the east and another continent continues to go forward to meet his fate, for the sake of freedom, revenge and struggle.
