 Rationally I know that it's time for a lull in my line of work, at least on Maui. But emotionally there is nothing I would enjoy more right now than going on a mission and getting one of the bastards who was high on our target list when I called a cease fire. I hate to see them get away with their crimes and I'd love to hit one more government terrorist for old time's sake.

I've come to crave the rush I get from killing them. Now it seems my blood lust has no limit and can never be fully satisfied. Perhaps the virus, the HIV, along with the trauma of torture, has ravaged the peace-love-and-understanding circuits of my brain. And maybe, along with the trauma of Jaz's murder, a prion did the same thing to Obie so that the greatest enjoyment in life for that once gentle man became vengeful torture and execution. Perhaps ancient stories about vampires and zombies, in which decent people bitten by evil become evil too, have their roots in cases like ours. It is no tragedy that the likes of us die while we are, I hope, still slightly ahead on the lifetime morality accounting scale.

Don't worry about me suffering in my last days. After all, I'm an expert killer. I have a perfect record, 30 and 0 I believe, and I won't botch my last job. When the end is near I'll savor the two bottles of red zin I have for the occasion, pop 30 downers, and climb into an airtight body bag. I won't feel a thing, I promise. Don't cry for me.

I love you.

Jason died on July 2, 2022, surrounded by the new Aka Five, and sedated with pills and wine. He had been on Maui just 18 months. But what an 18 months it had been! For him and for the island.

The new Aka was very active and effective. For five years it ensured that reforms stayed on track in Maui County, while at the same time it aided dissidents with operations, one at a time, in at least a dozen Western counties. But in 2026 two members of Aka were arrested in Arizona after visiting with a well-known radical dissident. One was executed in front of the other. It was staged as an escape attempt, and he
Rationally I know that it's time for a lull in my line of workplace, at least on Maui.

I hate to experience them get away with their crime and I'd sleep together to hit one more government terrorist for previous time's sake. 

 I've come to crave the haste I get from killing them. Now it seem my blood lust has no limit and can never be amply satisfied. Perhaps the virus, the HIV, along with the trauma of torture, has ravaged the peace - beloved - and - understanding circuits of my brain. And maybe, along with the trauma of Jaz's murder, a prion did the same thing to Obie so that the greatest enjoyment in life for that once gentle man became vengeful torture and execution. possibly ancient narrative about vampires and zombi, in which adequate people bitten by evil become malefic too, accept their roots in cases like ours. It is no calamity that the likes of us die while we are, I hope, still slightly ahead on the lifetime morality accounting scale. 

 Don't worry about me suffering in my last days. subsequently all, I'm an expert killer whale. I accept a perfect record, 30 and 0 I believe, and I won't botch my final job. When the end is near I'll savor the two bottle of red zin I have for the occasion, pop 30 sedative, and climb into an airtight body bag. I won't feel a thing, I predict. Don't cry for me.
