Birds and bloodstains

Well guys the time came. Everyone who was going to be there was there. I requested some backup from some of our more deadly nests. I can't say names but I'll tell you I call them Mother and Child. Unfortunately they were busy on an assignment. I almost feel bad for whoever those two are after. However that meant I was on my own against an entire nest (Excuse me) of angry armed runners. This was going to be interesting. I got down from my perch (I really need to stop accidentally making bird puns) and smashed a first floor patio door to let myself in. Two people were in the apartment an old man and a young woman. They didn't seem to be involved. Killed them both anyways. Quick stab in the neck before they could scream. I opened the door to the hallway and lifted the mask. The birds spread out to clear the halls and attack anyone who left their room. Now I had the run of the place. I wandered through the halls kicking in doors intent on slaughtering anyone I found. Surprisingly all the rooms were empty. I heard gunshots and I headed in that direction. I found the birds devouring a group of bodies by the elevator. With floor one apparently cleared I moved onto the next and so on until the thirteenth or fourteenth floor since this building was apparently suspicious. All the floors so far had been empty but that floor is where I saw Harold. He was watching the elevator as it opened and he grinned at me. I should have set the birds on him but I didn't. I wanted to kill him myself. He began running and I chased him into an apartment suite. Realizing I had cornered him I moved in for the kill and the bastard jumped out a window! It was shortly after that I found out that the suite was loaded with explosives. I survived thanks to my feathered friends who carried me out before the explosion but I will not forgive that bastard.

my mask was cracked during the escape. It has become personal now Harold. I know enough about movies to realize there's no way you died jumping out that window. You obviously had an exit.


So I failed to kill you and you failed to kill me. Next time we meet this will be settled once and for all.
