CONTEST: Short story with a twist. The Paraclet by @zekea

in Writing & Reviews3 years ago

One of the most dangerous things to have ever been invented since man started inventing and one of the most sought after as well; for it was said that whoever had the Paraclet had the world at their finger tips.

She didn't know how and to be honest, not many people knew because the only person who knew what it was and how to work it was killed while trying to save her own blood, her youngest son. It was an assassination by someone who didn't want anyone else knowing too much about the Paraclet,

after all information was power and in this case...even the tiniest bit of it could do a whole lot.

At first it was a police case. However, the more they found out, the more obvious it was that this case was far beyond the capabilities of the police. That was when Captain Joseph Barnes came to her office to meet up with the bosses and ask for help. And being one of the best,

they just had to send her on this case; and the mission; to find out all she could about the device known as the Paraclet and retrieve it from its hiding place before anyone else (like Dr Joanna Kantess who apparently had crazy plans for it) could get their hands on it. Well, because of that, she was going on a "vacation" in the City of Love, which wasn't so bad...unless one considered the person she was going with, a handsome young rookie agent that was only in it for the fun. It was his first job but he was so captivated and marvelled that the Chief had fixed him on the job with the great Inspector Kefla.
Coming off the jet, Kefla was so tired but she swore she wouldn't get to the hotel so early. "I need to have some fun", she kept on saying with her eyes craving. Dit smiled held her hand and said, "I know just the place".

They headed there and got wasted with whiskey and tequila. Kefla drew closer to Dit to whisper something into his ears when she caught a shady guy who had been looking at her the whole time. She got up and tried walking to him when he got up and ran. "Whatttt!!!! Dittt!!!!", Kefla shouted. Dit, quite a fast guy, pounced up and in a matter of seconds caught the suspect.
To their greatest surprise, it was Jack, (an old accomplice of Kefla who stole an evidence for an old job in the past). Kefla punched him and all Jack said was "it's hiding somewhere in the Eiffel Tower". "What do you mean?", Kefla scolded. "The paraacl"... Banngggg! Everyone started screaming and Dit was in the ground gasping, blood everywhere...

Kefla screamed!!!...
