One of the figures asked, “You’re sure Zeke Williams is crippled now?”

momentous occasion.”
Good to know.

“Hold on,” the woman said, “Are we supposed to kill or just wipe out their memories?”
“If possible, only erase their memories. If that’s not possible, we’re allowed to kill them all.”

The male assassin shook his head. “We don’t trust people’s mouths.”
The female assassin added, “You have two options now. One is to cooperate with us and we’ll wipe away all your
memories. Another is death.”
Daniel and Hannah exchanged terrified glances.
Not wasting any more time, the man pulled out two needles and stepped toward the Hintons.
