55: Revenge


Credit
Sometimes, things just work out this way… that’s what I told myself as I slipped the last round into the clip, popped it into place, and pulled back the slide. It returned with the satisfying sound of aggression. After a final look, I carefully turned his photo face down. 

Revenge would finally be mine. Tonight.

  6. Yikes. And where do you guys get these photos?? "The satisfying sound of aggression" is the best description I've ever heard of the mechanics of loading a gun.
