Assignment

I frowned. The assignment was tough.

I was fed up with him. I wanted to quit the job, but kept that as a secret. Once someone entered into his world there was no escape. It was a vicious circle.

“Rees, make it fast”

“ Will be done in few minutes boss”, I was leaning over the table, connecting the wires. I hated to look at his face.

“All right. Will meet you in few minutes”

The footsteps were getting away. I gasped and gazed at him. He was wicked. He killed everyone who escaped from his world. I wanted to live.

It was a critical project. Boss believed that only I could do this. He wanted fame, and he was using me for that. He trusted me.

I kept my word. The equipment was ready. It could kill a dozen people in a moment. I wanted it as the final assignment by him.

“Poor boy, He wanted to leave my company” he snorted. He was creepy.

“But Boss”, the assistant wanted to tell something but he gulped. He was scared.

“Do you think I won’t know if you plan to leave my company? I can keep track of your thoughts”

“Did Rees want to leave the company? “

Boss laughed like a devil as a reply and added.

“He will die with the same equipment which he has completed just now; no one can escape from my world”.

The assistant didn’t utter a word. He tried to hold his breath.

“The equipment is connected to Rees’s car which will explode by a small thrust on this remote”

Boss laughed again, shoving the small remote to his pocket.

I was on my way back to home. I didn’t want to enter into his company again.

The project was over. But still I felt bad. He was going to kill a dozen of people with the equipment which I have made. But…

I made a smile on my face. The remote for the equipment was specially designed.

A small press on the remote was enough to burn someone into ashes.
