wouldn’t be here with me right now. Probably be some other loser. ”
     
        “Hey , that’ s not funny .”
     
        “Aw yeah. Wasn’t meant to be.”
     
       The sky was multiple shades of gray and threatened to rain, but so far it had been an idle threat , not a single drop had fallen . There was a small engine plane buzzing up there somewhere but the clouds concealed it. Bernard was a short f ellow, just over five feet tall; he wanted to be anywhere else but his current location. He would prefer just about any other job than this one. Anthony was average height with shoulder length black hair and a gruff face. His conscience was not a robust thing, but rather a sickly entity barely able to lift its head , and whenever it did so was usually knocked back down . However in this situation his conscience was attempting to rise , like a down and out boxer trying hard to get up .
     
        The Winchester Model 70 extreme weather rifle with scope had a clear view of Jenny sitting on a lawn chair in the front yard facing her mother , but killing a little girl didn’t exactly sit well with either of them. She was sideways to them and he was waiting for a better angle. Bernard took a discolored cloth out of his pocket and polished its stock, and Anthony shook his head at the act. But to Bernard it was simply a slight distraction. It was as if he was polishing time itself, to make it glide pass a little easier.
     
        “Bernard, what are you going to do with all that money?”
     
        “Gonna give some to charity.”
     
        “Yeah right.”
     
        “Aw yeah. My father was blind so I’m gonna give some to the institute.”
     
        Bernard had to chuckle. “ You belong in an institute. If it wasn’t for the fact that Sharpton would track us down I think I would just get the hell out of here. That’ s one vampire that I do not like. Notice how vampires go missing around him? Like when Arvel went to Italy. Italy my ass. Not everyone is as stupid as he thinks. ”
     
        “Aw yeah. If I told him you said that you wouldn’t live very long. Don’t worry I’m no rat. ” Bernard was anxiou s to get it over with and get out of the area . He could sense some of Jenny’s energy but wasn’t sure what he was detecting , or where it was originating from . It did make him a little edgy but decided not to bring it up. They didn’t need to be unnerved. Some things were best left unsaid. No choice but to complete the task and so they were going to and that was it.
     
        They were surrounded by a circle dug into the ground around them, about three inches deep, which was filled with broken glass crystal. It created a temporary spell that allowed them to go undetected from Jenny. That small area had become invisible to her magical mind, like radar bouncing off a stealth fighter. Sharpton’s instructions had been precise on how to accomplish it, and it had taken them two days to complete the circle as they had run out of crystal. They were told that the crystals had to form a solid circle or it simply wouldn’t work. A spell that wouldn’t function was a waste of time and energy. Any space where crystal wasn’t touching crystal and the spell would be nullified. The fragments had to originate from enchanted crystal balls that had been smashed and sprinkle with flakes of dried vampire blood that contained a high level of magical properties , but at least Sharpton had taken care of that end of it having supplied the glass . The blood had been purchased from a w izard that dealt in such things, and in fact had been his own blood. Wizard’s blood had a reputation of being unpredictable when consumed, with tales of vampires melting from the inside out. But some tales were just that, perhaps put out there by a wizard.
     
        Bernard stroked the blade of his 17 th century katana sword and looked nervous, starting to cut his hand open in s lices and watch it heal. Even his own blood was
