-Oh her girls were talented. When she lifted the clinically removed face from the fridge she marvelled at what a wonderful job Nori had done. It was not as perfect as some of Dexters work, but Nori was much younger and with only human sight. One day she would be a superb specimen. Along the side she could see the place where Crawley cut, jagged and unclean but it was the girls first try and Shane was proud. Long fingers were used to spread the face out on a sanitized and seran covered counter at the tattoo station. The back side was up and it had been carefully cleaned to display a good work space. Thin needles like you would use to pin a butterfly were used in six places to hold the thin mask of skin carefully in place. Her hand smoothing over the surface before she took the tattoo gun and started her real work.-
Adam,I kept our pact. He came to me. Your philosophy isn't working. Children must be punished not coddled. Look forward to meeting the next one.
-She barely fit the message on, but left off her name because Adam would know who it was from. How many people went around carving peoples faces off and then dropping them at your door. Her own fingers left no prints, but even that nonwithstanding she knew that Adam would never take this to the police. They had made a pact after the incident with Colin and she had kept her end of the bargain. Shane loved bargaining. Especially with human lives. The needles were pulled out and tossed in the garbage bin and then she wrapped the face up in seran wrap.-
-The little gift would be carefully places in a box that was made for 9X13 picture frames. It was a perfect fit packed in with bubble wrap. Since this had been an arts and crafts project she went to the wrapping paper room and grabbed up some paper with big laughing clowns all over it and a ridiculously large bow that was bright red. Something about the clowns on the paper was menacing, and reminded Shane of the good old days in the travelling freak show. Reminiscing she wrapped up the package and slapped the bow down on top. Handing it off to Diego she gave him specific instructions to put it in the drawer of the desk in Adams office in town. Didn't care much how he got it there. Break in, seduce the secretary. Whatever, just as long as he got it there. A tag with Adams name was on it so hopefully that would dissuade any busy bodies who might go poking through the Khans things. Part of her hoped one of them would, maybe then Adam would finally show some fucking back bone and beat one of them for the disrespect. Probably not, but a girl could hope.-
