Excerpt: The Trials Of Elijah Marcus Ash

He ran down the hall, stopping at Suite 3115. This was an attorney’s office. Miss Immaculate Kennedy had a client that was currently being sued by this very firm. And she needed to know exactly what was happening. The job today was plant some bugs and hack into the servers, for access later on. This wasn’t the first time that Elijah did this type of job. He had spent some time the previous week in this building. From that, he found out that the two attorneys always left early on Friday, leaving only one staff person, Elijah found out on the second day of hanging out in the hallway that her kid was always getting in trouble with the school and that sometimes she had to leave to take care of the problem.
Right before his knife handiwork on the tires of the relief guard, Elijah called the receptionist, explaining that he was the vice principal of Oakenfold High School, where her kid went to school, and that there was an issue with a couple of other boys and something about some pills in a plastic baggie. She was gone like a shot.
Elijah smiled at the thought of this poor kid, who (at least today) didn’t really do anything wrong. This was the most fun part of any operation. He always had the leeway to do whatever he wanted, as long as he didn’t get caught and as long as it was done quietly. He liked the lock picking aspects and especially the hacking into the computer systems, but it was the human element of the operation that Elijah liked the best. Those training sessions with Dad were really paying off. Maybe if he got tired of this line of work, he would be a shrink. He certainly understood how people’s minds worked. Unfortunately for them, It was more of a ‘how to exploit it’ rather than a ‘how to help you fix it’ kind of understanding.
