Fyodor’s Rules #5 – Always have at least two exit plans.
The screaming had finally stopped.
They didn’t always shout. If I could keep them calm at the start,
most of them would just sit still while I worked, as though we were
having a pleasant conversation, nothing more. It was the ones with good
mental defenses, or the very few who knew who I was before I started, that
were the loudest.

His screaming couldn’t last forever, though. Just like every person who
had sat in my chair before him, the man was finally quiet. His head bowed,
chest rising and falling in steady breaths. I could finally work in peace,
slowly sorting through his mind to find what I needed.
My ears were thankful. The work I did was delicate enough and
required as much concentration as I could muster, the noise really didn’t
help. He was going to be lucky if I didn’t end up making a mistake and
doing some actual damage to his mind. At least it hadn’t been the highpitched screaming some people had forced me to endure while I was
working in the past. I hated it when they shrieked like the world was
ending.
People thought Sirens were just scions with a pretty voice who
hypnotized people. While some of us were certainly capable of that, it
wasn’t the only thing we could do. We had quite sensitive hearing, and an
ability to identify and filter through sounds that would make some animals
jealous. Unfortunately, all his cries had drilled into my head. If this job
hadn’t been so important, I would have buried a knife into his vocal cords
an hour ago.
It wasn’t like his memories were worth fighting for; I could say with
almost certainty that this man had done nothing worthwhile in his entire
life. In fact, the only reason he was here was because he had been in the
wrong place at the wrong time, or the right one, depending on your
perspective. His brain held one small piece of information that I needed. All
this fuss was over a simple memory, the combination of a safe.
I was sifting through his memories, trying to locate the one that I
needed, when I heard a new sound intrude upon the peace of my workspace.
An alarm that told me someone was approaching the house. Turning my
attention away from the man tied to the chair, I walked over to my desk and
pulled up the security feeds. This was the last thing I needed right now, all I
wanted was to get this job done.
Afterwards, I’d planned to take a long hot
bath with a bottle of red wine, washing away the grime of both the day and
the man’s mind, then to sleep for at least ten hours. I always needed a good
long sleep after this type of work.
