{Hard Work} Blondes Aren't Safe

I knew she was happy to be a brunette, but I asked anyway. The world isn’t safe for blondes. But then, blondes aren’t safe for the world.

It’s dangerous to be here, but I chose to be a reporter rather than a cop. Cops speak a lot of jargon, and anyway, I usually end up on crowd control. I don’t want to keep people from seeing my work.

I got back in the truck and drove aimlessly. The rug in the back rolled around, empty for now. I always had one. The worst thing was saving the world from a blonde and not having anywhere to put it.

Not that I do my work for altruistic reasons. I don’t kill to save the world. Or because blondes are evil, lying, manipulative bitches.

I kill because it’s fun. I have to cool it, though. Used to be a killing’d tide me over for more than a year. Now, the buzz lasts a month at best.

There was a girl ahead. Its car had broken down, poor thing. All I saw was the sun shining on its head like a little blond halo.

It’s been five months.

    Nice switching of perspective for the sequel, and very in character for him to refer to the blond as ‘it’.

    Blondes don’t have more fun in this series. The back and forth percpectives det/killer, is a clever way to do the series.

    Thank you, gentlemen. I think it’s just my ADD , but I get a little bored not knowing what they’re up to. Plus I thought it was a little scary that he was right there!
