Gumbo Tales

Damned if I did and damned if I didn’t~

Six months was a long time to go missing. What had I’d done during that time? Who had I been in contact with? Central would expect answers, and I had none.  

He’d made me this way. From the beginning the Architect did everything to make me His. I could only assume I was still here because He wanted me here. For all I knew there were Watchers already reporting back to Central right this moment. There was no one I could trust.

Unlike the local cops Central wasn’t limited by laws. If they wanted me to disappear, they could make it happen and no one would ever come looking for me. I had no one. No one not affiliated with Central at least. For all intents and purposes, I didn’t exist.
