It was a grey Dublin afternoon like so many others, and yet today,
something felt different. It was as though there was a feeling of
potentiality, and I could only hope the reason for it was good and would
serve my interests.
It had stopped raining, but dirty water gathered in puddles and the roads
glistened wet. It didn’t lend itself well to stealth, but my target showed little
concern about being followed. He should’ve been more careful, unless he
knew I was there.
I tried to avoid assumptions, but I continued to follow him through the
city streets. The collar of his black leather jacket was pulled up around his
neck, beneath short, untidy dark hair that was damp from the earlier rain. I
didn’t know his name but I recognised his face. It was wrinkled, but it
seemed more the result of a rugged environment than age. He had a
stubbled chin, now out of sight, as he walked ahead of me. He was one of
Kelibon’s creatures. Maybe not a creature in the literal sense, but those who
worked for Kelibon were seldom more than that.
He ducked into a narrow alley and I followed him at a distance, not
wanting to be caught in an ambush. Kelibon had a range of people in his
employ – some more permanent than others, ranging from petty criminals
to assassins. My instincts told me this man either lacked training or he was
skilled enough to give that impression. He looked entirely at ease – that, if
nothing else, was reason to be careful.
Kelibon’s followers believed he owned the city. I wasn’t ready to accept
that. Tucking my wings closer against my back, I walked out on to the main
road, joining a small crowd of customers outside a coffee shop. The humans
wouldn’t see my wings, but not every set of eyes in the city was mortal. I
already knew Kelibon’s weren’t.
My target had already gained ground, and as I watched, he crossed the
road toward a park known as St. Stephen’s Green. It was in the middle of
Dublin. There wasn’t a lot of privacy to be had, which heightened my
curiosity. I wondered what the real St. Stephen would think of my kind
strolling through his park, but I couldn’t say it bothered me. Fallen angels
weren’t the most well-regarded in heaven, but as much could be said of
anyone who didn’t follow the rules.
Was I any more noble than Kelibon? Well, that would depend on your
point of view. I believed so, but who was to say Kelibon wouldn’t have
answered that question differently? He was one twisted son of a bitch,
judging by his actions, but I also had my moments. I set the thought aside as
I moved to the park entrance. When my target was far enough ahead, I
followed him in. Now what was he up to?
There were a few people around, but it was surprisingly quiet for early
afternoon. It was probably because of the weather, as there was nowhere
dry to sit down.
