Ahhhhhhhh! Yikes! What a set-up! Yours is another brain I wouldn't mind examining -- I JUST said something similar to another writer I admire greatly. What a story, Bill. I'm still feeling more than a little nervous! (*smile*)

This is a very interesting short story you have penned. You used very interesting and well thought out words to use. The art work you chose went well with your words. I saw no errors or spag in this. Blessings, Teri

The biggest take away from this is never break the law no matter what your instructor tells you to do. Of course when you are being set up by someone this powerful, if you do not go along with the setup, you will be screwed anyway, so there is no win. At least for you there is no win.

This is based on a true story; much like the Trump presidency.

Cool story, with a good plot, believable characters, and an interesting plot twist at the end. Bill you need to start entering contests with your writing. Very nice job.

Comment from Teresa Alford
Excellent. Intriguing, when the story said they walked to the diner I thought the women hit must have been a dummy used for training...clever twist. Why did the driver seemingly left the scene so easily?
In first sentence eyes bulged to saucers?? Or did the eyes bulge to the SIZE of saucers?
I hope there will be more story coming.

I hasn?t anticipated a series on this character until I wrote the last paragraph. I will frame it out. I went with the metaphor over the simile with saucers. Thanks, TA.

Hoo boy - right to the moon, Schott. This is wonderfully weird but demands the reader read it carefully and suspend disbelief. Your mind creates stuff that boggles the mind and entertains the imagination.

I could actually believe that happens! The world is crazy and human life has always been cheap to some criminals, but now it's even more so. Quite a scary story you've told here, Bill, well done! :) Sandra xx

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
Yikes! Always learn everything about a job before you accept it. He can't even tell the police how it happened and why, since they'll kill his family. Better to have a boring nine to five job. :)

He did get the job though. There must be crypto resume for killers. Thanks for giving this a look, Phyllis.

He was not hired to kill. What gave you that idea? He's doing research on the effect of the power on one who has it.

Oops... I was mistaken... thought the Q was about my story. Yes, your guy is a killer. :)

That would be a leap in plot.
