Eileen Moore — a.k.a. “The Wave”.
She glided in under cover of darkness, set to powerwash the compound — not to flush them out, but dissolve them.
Presence detection at full power; eighty-three targets acquired.
She was a machine — quiet, efficient. Within half an hour nobody was left; eighty-three people were vapor, including their outspoken “Captain” Tommy Marshall —
washed away, as it were.
This was her job: safeguarding. . .
whom?
From what?
Agent Moore proceeded,
without an answer.
This flash fiction in 75 words was crafted for the M3 blog’s Flash in the Pan
