Fired

Evil Ronald

"So I am glad that nothing happened to any of us that day. Mr. Kush here will take the dog's body and he will try some experiments on it and check. We can consider it a success then. I will try and make some changes on the vaccine so that it doesnt affect anyone so hard", said Mr. Ronald, "So here in Ronald labs we have had a success so a toast to that".

All the men wearing black coats including Sam held up their glasses as did Ronald , cheerfully.

Smith didn't look in a very good mood. As everyone went back to their talks and chats. Smith waved at Ronald and called Ronald near him . Sam noticed Ronald and Smith about to talk and that looked pretty important so Sam decided to eavesdrop and he went near them , without them noticing. Ronald went there and handed him a glass of champagne and Smith thanked him and took it

"Ronald, you told me that whatever you had planned it was not dangerous. You had told me! And what I saw yesterday's night ! I don't think that if those things are on loose , anyone will be alive! You asked for my help , and I helped you but this Ronald....... It is way to dangerous...... I don't think I will plan on helping you again if you don't stop working on that vaccine",said Smith gravely.

"Are you withdrawing Smith?",asked Ronald calmly

"You told me that it was just a freaking small injection to cause an incurable disease ......you just told me that it wouldn't spread or cause any harm to innocents! I heard you talking to Mr. Kush last night! You are planning to destroy this city! And flee with to another city with a little group of yours with a cure of the infection just for you to use! And how could a sensible man like Mr. Kush agree to this?! What are you doing Ronald? You were not like this!",said Smith with a mix of sadness and helplessness.

"You? Huh?!....you of all people are telling me about hurting innocent people? What are you going to do Smith ? Turn on me? Will you turn me in Smith? I will have the cure and you know what will happen? When the infection starts spreading to other cities as well , or the city where I will be living, specifically, I will launch the cure.... And people will be craving for it! I will destroy lives and I will be the one to save it Smith! So save your words."

Smith just looked at Ronald horrified,....at a loss of words...

Ronald smiled at him and said," I have other doctors and staff to attend to, so excuse me "

Smith said," wait a minute.... Do all these people know what you are doing? You have invited them for a launch of a new vaccine ....do they know?"

Ronald smile again and shook his head and said," No Smith....they don't....and I am sure they won't....will they Smith?"

Smith whispered," No", and shook his head with a slight disagreement in his eyes but he kept his mouth shut, as Ronald patted him in the neck and walked ,with his back turned towards Smith. Sam noticed Smith looking at Ronald's back with pure hatred in his face.

Something told Sam that something wasn't right about that.... Smith and Ronald were supposed to be friends and helping each other destroy the city...and not threatening each other ..... For Sam.......didn't know how much Smith hated Ronald......

"How was the party Sam? Did you enjoy it?",asked Ronald

"Yes sir...it was...great!"

"Hey come here ,I want you to do one last thing before you go back home",said Ronald leading him to another room with lots of computer and devices and electronics." I have put a microphone on Smith and one of his head men. And I need to access into it. You told me you were a good hacker and excellent with electronics so here , and I need you to tap his phone calls as well, do you understand Sam? And it would be great if you didn't tell any of this to anyone.... I would be pleased if you understood."

"Yes sir I understood", said Sam and turned towards the computer showing the city's map with several red dots that he recognised as the unfortunate people that Ronald was tracking.

Only one thought was roaming in Sam's mind now .....what if Ronald has put a microphone on his body too....in a drink or any device in his body which would allow Ronald to hear everything Sam talked about. Sam could just wish that he was not that unlucky
