Chapter 17

Hi it’s me Martinez again. My victory at intercepting Kevin's secret computer disk was short lived. I finally had the golden chalice in my hands and I dropped it.  Kevin Spencer’s disc was the key to my glorious dreams of revenge.  My heart was shattered like a broken clay pot, as I anguish over the lose of Kevin’s computer disk.

From the shadows of my despair, hope rose within my soul that all was not lost. I realized that my plans for revenge was not totally eradicated. Two years ago I persuaded an FBI agent, named Taylor, to join my quest to kill Kevin Spencer and to facilitate my efforts to retrieve the treasure. I called Taylor and requested that he track down the license plate of the two strange men I saw at the bank. Taylor relayed to me that the two old men were named Todd Beacon and John Kelly and that they were both former soldiers in the eight-six Airborne platoon along side Kevin Spencer. My mind began to swirl as I pondered if the two men had conspired to steal the treasure for themselves or where they trying to seek revenge for Kevin’s murder? It finally accrued to me that I would have to hire an assassin to kill them before they disrupt my plans for revenge.  I spend the rest of the night securing a professional assassin to kill Todd Beacon and John Kelly.

To help me vindicate my debacle of loosing the computer disc at Deloris’s house, I asked my spy in the FBI to retrieve Kevin Spencer’s disc.

An unsuspected tear trickled down my check as I saw the light of a new dawn. The spender rays of sunlight pierced the dark night sky and illuminated god’s domain. As the sky exploded with color and life, I called my next victim in my plan for revenge.
