Drabble Challenge #94

Prompt: lost

"My fee is $10,000."

"Yikes."

"I am expensive, but my results are guaranteed."

"That's what I've been told."

"Do you have the item with you?"

"It's right here in this case. Do you want to know what it is?"

"I'm assuming it's indestructible, right?"

"Yes."

"And dangerous?"

"Extremely."

"That's all I need to know."

"You can make sure no one ever finds it?"

"Absolutely."

"And if someone does?"

"They won't."

"But what if they do?"

"Then I'll track it down and get rid of it again; no charge... but I won't have to. When I lose something, it stays lost."
