The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.<\/strong><\/p>\n Edmund Burke<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Back at the 1992 cave, the newlyweds did what newlyweds do. They planned their future.<\/p>\n \u201cCristian are you going after them?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI have no choice Lorelei they are going to attack you and the baby.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI plan to wipe them all out one at a time before they know where we are.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI told me that you need to learn how to shoot. That was a mouthful. I think that\u2019s a good plan. Watcher can you give Lorelei the knowledge she needs all guns, past present and future. She could probably use some fighting skills, all of them.”<\/p>\n \u201cI can do that, would you like the same knowledge Cristian?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYes Watcher please, let\u2019s do that.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIn a few seconds, the Husband and wife had become proficient in all styles of fighting and all weapons, swords and knives, all guns.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s better thanks, Watcher.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNow there is no reason we can\u2019t do this together as Husband and wife Cristian.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNone that I can think of, or invent or would dare to try to impose sweetie.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cGood answer let\u2019s take the fight to them.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cPick your guns and let\u2019s hit the first target.\u201d<\/p>\n M1 was standing at the gun wall when they got there.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI made these up for you for the trip. He opened a locker\u00a0door.”Inside there were two outfits including boots.<\/p>\n \u201cComplete head to toe Combat Armour. The suits are lightweight fireproof, shock-absorbing impenetrable even from close-range frag explosions. You will find four ceramic throwing knives at the top of the vest at the back and sides of the cerebellum cover. At the small of your back are a pair of compact ceramic and polymer 45 cal. 1911-type handguns with silencers. They each have a ten-shot compact clip but can handle the extra 15-shot clips with integral hand grips found inside hidden pockets on the front of the vest. The handguns include accessory rail top and bottom. The rounds are ceramic, both shells and projectiles. You can walk through a metal detector without triggering the sensors. Inside the vest are headgear with integral eye shields that fit over sunglasses, for a full-on assault with no chance of damage even from Teflon rounds.”<\/p>\n \u201cNicely done M1. I am impressed.\u201d Cristian said.<\/p>\n \u201cThere is more try these\u201d he handed over two pairs of cheap sunglasses.<\/p>\n \u201c Man I love my cheap sunglasses,\u201d said Cristian.<\/p>\n \u201cPut them on Cristian, Lorelei.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cDamn woman you look hot, very beautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThanks, Husband.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou will notice the 360-degree motion trackers, range finders, night vision and rearview. They are linked to your neural interface. Anyone else puts them on they appear to be just normal sunglasses. With an upgrade, you can see what each other is seeing through their glasses on command.”<\/p>\n \u201cLet\u2019s do that M1.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOpen the other closet, there are armoured long jackets with swivelling shotgun holster extra ammo storage and a couple of short swords with bayonet mounts. They can mount on rifles, handguns, or shotguns. There are grenade pockets plus survival gear inside the jacket.”<\/p>\n \u201cHusband we should try on our new outfits.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt would be rude not to Lorelei.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cQuite,\u201d she said smiling.<\/p>\n \u201cCristian what are you doing?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cPutting my Levis on over my tights. There are some things a man should not be seen in. You on the other hand look very fine in that skin-tight suit.”<\/p>\n \u201cThank you, you are not just saying that to get me into bed are you?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWould that work?\u201d He said laughing a bit.<\/p>\n \u201cA wink would work for you Husband.\u201d<\/p>\n A deep breath and a big sigh was his reply.\u201cM1 you have outdone yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWho is the first on the list Cristian?\u201d asked Lorelei.<\/p>\n \u201cAn assassin who calls himself Mr. Rogers currently living in the French Quarter, New Orleans. Watcher tells me that every Sunday morning he is in the Caf\u00e9 Du Monde, then he takes a walk over to Jackson Square to feed the birds.”<\/p>\n \u201cM1 I need a slow-acting undetectable poison nothing lethal, I need to convince him that he is dying.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI have what you need.” In a few minutes, he produced a small gelatin capsule. “The poison will be inert in 15 minutes. The first sign, he will lose equilibrium and control of his arms, within five minutes he will be in considerable pain. When the poison is near the end you will see a slight foaming at the mouth and he will pass out”<\/p>\n The Ascalon lifted off on its way to New Orleans. They arrived early in the morning Sunday and discussed their plan.<\/p>\n \u201cLorelei you distract him long enough for me to drop the poison in his coffee. When he leaves for the park we can have our discussion with him, by then the poison should start working on his body.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI will need to make a quick wardrobe change.\u201d<\/p>\n She walked through the crowded coffee shop pretending to look at a map until she saw her mark. In a thick Irish brogue, she said \u201cI am sure the museum is right here.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cExcuse me sir is the way to the museum?\u201d she bent way over, exposing bare breasts in a loose-fitting top.<\/p>\n She covered his coffee cup with the map. Cristian reached for the map while dropping the poison in the cup.<\/p>\n \u201cDebra you can\u2019t bother people like that, we can find the museum ourselves. We are sorry to bother you.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt is no bother the museum is next to the Cathedral. Just go through Jackson square across the way\u201d he said in a slight French accent.<\/p>\n \u201cYou see honey people are friendly here,\u201d she said smiling at the man.<\/p>\n Cristian hurried her out the door over to the statue of Andrew Jackson.<\/p>\n \u201cHow did we do?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe ladies were spectacular Sweetie, for a moment I forgot what we were up to. I managed to get the pill into his coffee. Now we wait.\u201d Lorelei smiled.<\/p>\n “I am going put my armour back on Cristian I will be right back.\u201d<\/p>\n Mr. Rogers walked into the square with a bag of seeds for the birds he was staggering a bit.<\/p>\n \u201cHoney it\u2019s the nice man from the coffee shop. Are you okay mister you don\u2019t look well?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI.\u201d he staggered a bit more and Cristian caught his arm and held him up.<\/p>\n \u201cMister let’s get you over to the bench over there.\u201d<\/p>\n He nodded in agreement Cristian saw the gun in a belt clip just under his jacket. Before the man noticed in one quick move he pulled the small handgun out and slipped it into his jacket pocket.<\/p>\n The man knew that these people meant to kill him. \u201cWho are you?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI am Mr. Wolf and the woman holding a silenced 45 to your ribs is my wife Mrs. Wolf.”<\/p>\n \u201cThe Wolfs that isn’t possible.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYet here we are\u201d added Lorelei who was quite pissed off.<\/p>\n \u201cI have given you a slow-acting poison, it will kill you in a most painful matter or you can tell me what I need to know and I will relieve you of your pain.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI won\u2019t tell you anything.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI understand, the pain you are about to feel is your organs liquefying one at a time. Everyone in New Orleans will hear your screams, but don\u2019t worry in a couple of hours the pain will subside as you get closer to death.\u201d<\/p>\n Cristian started to get up to walk away.<\/p>\n \u201cWait, wait I will tell you. He is in New York a judge in New York. His name is Mosby, Marshall Mosby.”<\/p>\n \u201cCristian there is a Marshall Mosby listed as a judge in New York City.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt could be a lie Watcher or a trap. Does Mr. Rogers have any family Watcher?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHe is lying, I think it is a trap. He has a 13-year-old daughter Emily in Baton Rouge.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cRogers if you are lying I will visit Emily. I won\u2019t kill her but I will take her to a slaver I know. He will set her up in a brothel in a third-world country. They love very young American girls.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou wouldn’t.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou were coming to kill my family fucker why wouldn’t I ?” said Cristian.<\/p>\n \u201cI will take her myself Mr. Rogers after I introduce her to a few very large bikers I know. They are not very gentle\u201d said Lorelei in a very cold tone.<\/p>\n \u201cThe man you want is here,\u201d said the drugged assassin.<\/p>\n \u201cHow do you reach him, Mr. Rogers, don\u2019t make a mistake here, I have a man waiting for a call in Baton Rouge.\u201d<\/p>\n In a few minutes, he will meet me right here.” His speech was slurring. “He will be wearing a blue suit. He is bringing me pictures and details about the hit on you and your wife.”<\/p>\n \u201cCristian he is telling the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThanks, Watcher.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cRogers you see how easy it would have been to take you out, you have retired as of today. I see you again Emily will pay, do you understand?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n His mouth started to froth. “Goodbye Mr. Rogers.”<\/p>\n \u201cLorelei if you could wipe the froth from his mouth while I get his wallet and belt clip. I am going to leave him sitting up on the bench. I will spread the rest of his birdseed on the ground in front of him.”<\/p>\n Cristian and Lorelei moved to another bench within sight of Mr. Rogers and the flock of birds eating the seeds.<\/p>\n \u201cAre you Okay Lorelei?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHe was going to kill us, I am fine. We should end him.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOur man is heading over to see Rogers. Let\u2019s separate and approach him from two sides.”<\/p>\n Cristian walked up to the man in the blue suit. \u201cMr. Rogers got a little too much sun, I don\u2019t think he will recover.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s a shame I rather liked him Wolf\u201d answered the man.<\/p>\n \u201cMove carefully my wife is behind you holding a silenced handgun, and she is very pissed off. Any quick moves will result in sudden death.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou don\u2019t have to do that, I will tell you what you need.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWave off the two men by the statue and hand me the briefcase.” He made a motion to the men and they returned to his vehicle waiting on the street.<\/p>\n \u201cI need a name. I would like to move up the corporate ladder?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIf I give you all the names, can you get them all?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cEvery one of them.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThen it\u2019s true you are the traveller.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThese people have infiltrated the government, corporations, religion, the media and the wealthy. All to control and exploit the masses, to keep them in ignorance and poverty.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe will remove any and all threats to our family.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhat will I tell them?”<\/p>\n \u201cTell them that you gave me Mosby.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cMosby is a trap he is heavily guarded he is a man most foul responsible for the murder and torture of hundreds that dare question or oppose the Elders.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cGood we will take him out next.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhere is the list?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThere is a key in my pocket that opens a safe deposit box in the uptown branch of the Bank of New Orleans. You will need a box number and a code to get past the manager.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAre you sending me into a trap?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNo, I really don\u2019t like these people.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cCristian he is telling the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI really don\u2019t need to make any threats do I?\u201d said Cristian.<\/p>\n \u201cThe fact that you are standing here and their best Assassin is dead on the bench means you can get to me at any time.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat is correct. He is not dead but he has retired, as you have. Go away somewhere warm.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI understand, here is the key box 842 the code is 8675309A.\u201d<\/p>\n Retrieving the list went without any problems.\u00a0\u00a0Very few words were said between husband and wife.<\/p>\n \u201cCristian should we have killed those men.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI think sending a scare through the organization will have a more dramatic effect. They know we are not to be toyed with now. I don\u2019t think Mosby will give us the choice. He will probably rather die trying to kill us. I would only kill if given no other choice.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSounds like we will get to test the armour. We started a war didn\u2019t we Cristian?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNo Lorelei we didn\u2019t start it but we are going to finish it. I am afraid I am going to ask you to stay out of the next fight while you carry our child. Mosby sounds lethal. I can concentrate on the fight better without worrying about you.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI will because you asked it of me Husband. I see the wisdom of it. You are a good man.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t think of myself as a good man Lorelei and I can think of many times I wasn’t in my past.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNever does a good man declare himself so, it is part of what makes him a good man.<\/b>\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWho said that Lorelei?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou will Husband.\u201d<\/p>\n During the flight home, she snuggled closer and put her head on his chest and fell asleep. Cristian stayed awake and thought about how they were going to take down the most powerful men in the world. There was only one way, to expose them for what they were and take back what they stole from the masses. He would find a way to hit them and hit them hard.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" TEMPUS CHAPTER NINETEEN The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
