I failed in my initial attempt to assault Justin as he was trying to leave his house for a graduation party. His mother came outside for no reason as I was moving into position and she put the house on red alert. (You all must understand, Justin’s family may well be more involved in this game than the Silent Falcon himself.) I eventually found cover on the roof of the shed in their backyard, and I observed the family’s defensive tactics. They were more than sound, and I feared I would not be able to make my kill on Lerman land.

Fast forward to today – I suppose this morning’s endless rehersals had dulled Justin’s mind. A bunch of us went out to lunch at Ardmore Station Cafe, my target included, and then we had to be back at school for chorus rehersal. Justin asked to ride with me…

Before returning to Shipley, I had to make an exchange at J Crew. Justin came inside, and while he was poking around in the upstairs womens section, Charlie and I shopped below. When I saw Justin coming back downstairs, I moved quickly. I pulled the spoon I borrowed from Ardmore Station Cafe, and the Silent Falcon fell. Charlie was too engrossed in a Broken- In Polo to witness the kill.

Justin played valiantly, notching 7 kills, but it finally caught up to him.
