The carpark was reasonably private, perhaps the ideal place to complete the first part of her plans with Sarah.

Elinor had driven here in a van, marked strategically with medical symbols and terms so as not to cause suspicion. She watched as Sarah approached a brand new claret coloured car, clearly she had succeeded and well. The evidence of Sarahs wealth only added fuel to the fire of hatred that had taken hold inside Elinor. Forcing a smile on her face she approached Sarah just as she was taking her car keys out of her small clutch bag.

Sarah turned to face her.
"Yes? Can I help you with something?" her eyes took in Elinors appearance, reasonably fashionable but with no indication of designer or wealth.





"Sorry to bother you, I'm with the medical service, my van is just over there." Elinor pointed to her carefully camouflaged vehicle "I just hoped you could give me a quick hand to get a couple of things out of the van, it won't take too long."

Sarah pursed her lips, due to her husbands position she had to be seen to do her civic duty. Hopefully this wouldn't take too long and she could get to her hair appointment afterwards.

Her heels clicked crisply on the hard surface of the car park as she followed Elinor to her van. At least the vehicle wasn't dirty.



"Thanks so much, this is really very nice of you." Elinor kept her tone light and almost subservient.

Sarah gave a half smile "Its not a problem. What would you like me to do?"

Elinor looked at Sarahs hands, so delicate with their well manicured nails, clearly Sarah didn't want to do anything too dirty.

"If you could just hold the door open for me please, it swings shut sometimes."

"Of course."

Sarah held the van door to one side, Elinor reached inside, opened a tool box and withdrew a syringe. As Sarah had her head turned away it was easy to plunge the needle into her flesh.

The drug took effect immediately and Sarah collapsed to the cold dirty ground. Elinor knew Sarah would be unconscious for a while now, it would take 2 hours to drive back to the house.

Not long now and the last sacrifical lamb would be in place.
