The man's eyes remained a bit widened, as he stared at her a little uncertainly for a moment but then spoke up in a serious tone of voice. "I was hired to do my job which was to take one shot and then make the offer. Due to the miss, I would have to resort to the backup plan, which I didn't really care for. Which would mean leaving two bodies behind." He looked at her seriously, clearing his throat. "Nothing personal, its just how it goes."<br/><br/>Gazing at her with the blade to his neck, he swallowed briefly seeming to contemplate whether or not to say more, but seemed to decide she was scarier than revealing what he knew must be. "I got the advance from a gal going by the nickname<em>RealDoll</em>, and as for my gear its rewards for earlier jobs well done. I began with a knife and an old rusty handgun, and got this far without real mistakes. So I hope there's some professional courtesy here."
