Comments on 'Child's Play'"All right, Mr. Worth, we're going to outline this to make it as simple as possible for you."

"Listen closely to what I say, Mr. Worth. My associates and I have piggybacked a satellite hovering over the Earth. Yes, we know how. This means we can intercept your calls - you've experienced that one, Mr. Satellite Phone. We can also track you and your entire family with GPS, and also gain access to aerial photos to any place at any time. For instance, right now, your wife is out grilling in the backyard. Now just think, Mr. Worth: if a group of teenagers - children, to you - can hack a NASA-registered, three billion dollar machine from our own hideaway, what do you think we can do to you?"

Bravo. The suspense is building. <em>He cursed vividly.</em>—I laughed at that line. <br />I’m likeing this very much. It’s ridiculous of course, but imagination is an important asset for a writer and you’ve got plenty.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/28809?basename=593542008-04-28T20:57:39ZTad Winslowhttp://ficlets.com/authors/tjdComment on Child's Play<p>This keeps getting worse, or better, depending on it it’s from the perspective of Mr. Worth or me.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/28809?basename=593502008-04-28T20:50:34Zthebetweenspacehttp://ficlets.com/authors/thebetweenspace
