I was told the device’s disguise would not cause suspicion. I was skeptical. The proof was in the evidence. I breeched the target location and placed the device among similar devices. Enacting my invisibility cloak, I lay in wait. I had to be sure. The target and his family entered and didn’t notice the new arrival. Even the child, which took to playing with the device. I slipped out once I ensured the device was recording clearly.

From the playhouse in the back yard, my wings flutter as I listen to their world destruction plans.

Now we have a chance.
