Chapter 6
Emily Hasting smiles her most charming and beautiful smile as her misty gray eyes fall upon Stephanie Plum's sorry excuse of a car. The old three-story building is as shabby as ever, and somehow looks even more dilapidated than usual under the bright sunlight. The parking lot is almost empty now. The old folks are all out having fun. And Stephanie Plum, the two-bit bounty hunter who hasn't been able to bring in one single FTA for 9 days now that the tall Cuban is out of town(no doubt committing crimes), will be home eating leftovers from her poor mother's dinner table for lunch—her very last meal, as a matter of fact.
Yes, Emily is always ready and prepared. She, of course, knows Stephanie Plum's daily schedule by heart, and chose this particular time to execute the Plan for a very good reason. She's such a truthful, reasonable, kind and nice person. She has never ever tried to hurt an insect or any small animal on purpose. And naturally she wanted to make sure there will be no casualty of war when she gets rid of that shameless incompetent woman who cheats on her sweetest dearest Joseph with that colored man. She has a most fragile and tender heart. She can't stand watching innocent people get hurt.
It's time. Let's roll. Elizabeth, the happy little voice dwelling inside Emily's mind gaily whispers. The streets are empty. Nobody will see us. Stephanie Plum will be dead. That colored man will soon follow. And then Joseph will be ours! OURS!
She obediently nods. Elizabeth is right, as always. She checks her gun. She checks her knife. She checks the most exquisite bombs she made all by herself. God bless the Internet and all those wonderful and amazing people who selflessly teach everything on-line for free. She grabs the equipment, gets out of the car and heads for her destination.
Just another day. Just another explosion. And this time Stephanie Plum won't be able to escape her fate. Emily Hasting, the future Mrs. Joseph Morelli and happy mother of six most beautiful little Cupcakes, will see to that.
