Something was eating away at him. He wiped away another bead of sweat, and thought to himself damn this air conditioner. Cheap third world peltiers!.

Briggs Walters was still feeling jet lagged, as he stood partially covered by his umbrella, and partially covered by the coffee tree he was squatting under, to get a better look at the beans that weren’t growing properly. The farmer next to him, though exuberant, clearly didn’t fully understand why Briggs had flown all this […]
The rivulets of blood slowly coalesced on her abdomen, just below the wound. The gun shot. She had been shot. This wasn’t in the plan. She wasn’t expecting to be out here.
