Just Another Day in the Life of a Spy
John Q. woke up in a hotel room next to the girl he seduced the night before. John awoke before she did, got dressed, grabbed his gun from under the pillow and proceeded down to the lobby. He walked outside and gave the valet his ticket. The valet ran off to fetch his car and John reached into the inner left breast pocket and pulled out his silver cigarette case, and pulled one out. Click, the sound of a zippo flicking open to light the cigarette dangling from his lips. The valet returned with his jet black 1961 Ford Thunderbird. John walked around to the driver’s side and handed the valet a brand new $100 bill, then proceeded to get in his car and drive away. While driving down the streets of Paris a monitor slides out from the dashboard and greets him with his target of the day. The target? The Duke of Montreuil Manuel François, who lives just out side Paris in his multimillion-dollar mansion. John Q. parks a quarter mile away from the Duke’s house and goes up through the woods towards the mansion. As he comes up on the mansion there are guards outside making their rounds. John Q. sneaks up on one and snaps his neck, then proceeds to take his radio so that he can listen to the guards talk and be able to know if there is any suspicion that an unwanted guest is lurking through the mansion. John Q. makes his way to the Dukes bedroom while the Duke is still asleep, he sits in the shadowy corner of the room and attaches the silencer to his pistol and waits for the Duke to rise from his slumber. After thirty-eight minutes the duke arises from his bed startled to see John Q. waiting for him. “You’ve come to kill me. Haven’t you,” says the Duke. “That would be the obvious answer, wouldn’t it,” says John Q. in a witty voice. Then the Duke makes a move for his gun, which is on the nightstand next to his bed but John Q. makes his shot before the Duke makes it half way to his gun. The only sound that it makes is the sound of the bullet casing hitting the solid oak floor. John Q. then leaves the, Duke now lying in a pool of blood, on his bed and leaves. Just as John Q. makes it back to his hotel room the girl from the night before is just waking up and John Q. greets her with breakfast.
