Chereads / I want to become a killer / Chapter 9 - Part 8

Chapter 9 - Part 8

The meeting with the man was brief but suffocating. Every word he spoke felt like a command, every gesture like a signal that I was part of something bigger than myself. I didn't know who he was, but I could feel his presence—powerful, patient, calculated.

When the guards came to take me back to my cell, I couldn't shake the feeling that something fundamental had shifted. The man—this mysterious figure—had promised me more. More than just escape, more than just manipulation. He had promised me transformation.

As the days passed, the thought of the visit gnawed at me. I replayed his words over and over in my mind. "Someone who has the resources to help you achieve everything you've ever wanted." His tone had been calm, detached, but the implications were clear. There was no ordinary person behind that statement. This was a person who could give me what I truly needed—the next step in my evolution.

I kept my composure, though. The guards, the staff, even the inmates—they were all watching me closely now. They were still under the illusion that they had me under control, but I knew better. I was playing the long game. This was just a chapter in a much larger narrative, and I wasn't about to let them ruin the plot.

Days turned into weeks. I had more visitors—court-appointed psychiatrists, social workers, lawyers—but none of them were important. They were just noise. I nodded, answered their questions, kept up the facade of the confused, emotionally-disturbed inmate. I was a model prisoner now. They thought I was broken, that my mind was fractured. But I wasn't broken. I was just being patient. I knew what was coming.

And then, finally, I got the message.

It was subtle at first, a small piece of paper slipped under my door late one night. It was folded carefully, the handwriting sharp and precise. I opened it quickly, my heart racing in anticipation.

**Psychobi,

The next step is near. We have arranged everything. Follow the plan.

Your friend.**

There were no details, no instructions, just those cryptic words. But they were enough. I knew exactly what was being implied. The time had come. The time to leave this place, to step out of the prison and into something much larger.

The following morning, the guards came to fetch me again. This time, however, something was different. Their faces were more tense, their movements rushed, as if something had changed behind the scenes.

"Psychobi, get up. You're being transferred," one of them said.

I stood without question, though my mind raced. Transferred? To where? My first instinct was to ask, but I didn't. The less I knew, the better. I had been in enough places to recognize the signs of a shift in the plan. This wasn't just a routine transfer.

They led me down a series of hallways I had never seen before, past rooms filled with quiet whispers and muffled footsteps. My heart hammered in my chest. I could feel the walls closing in on me, but I didn't panic. I welcomed it. This was the moment I had been preparing for.

When they reached the end of the hall, a door that I had never noticed before was opened. The room beyond was dim, lit only by a single flickering light. There was a car waiting just outside, an unmarked vehicle with tinted windows. No one spoke as I was shoved into the back seat. The air inside the car was heavy with anticipation.

I didn't know where I was going, but I didn't care. I knew that this was the start of something new. I could feel it in my bones.

The car drove for what felt like hours, winding through deserted streets, the hum of the engine the only sound in the otherwise silent world. I stared out the window, watching the world blur by, and felt something inside me stir—this was real. This was happening.

Eventually, the car slowed, and we stopped in front of a nondescript building, tucked away in a secluded area. The doors opened, and I was escorted inside. The air here was different, charged with the same energy I had felt in that man's presence.

We walked down another hallway, past security cameras and guarded doors. I knew, deep down, that I was no longer in control of my immediate fate. But it didn't matter. This was just the next step.

At the end of the hall, the door opened, and the man from my visit was waiting. His eyes gleamed with that same knowing, dangerous look.

"Welcome," he said, his voice smooth, almost welcoming. "I knew you'd be ready."

I looked around the room—no more sterile prison walls, no more confinement. The place had the feel of a command center, sleek and modern. There was a large table in the center, with documents scattered across it.

"Are you ready to begin?" the man asked.

I didn't hesitate. "Yes."

The transformation had begun.
