I swung my katana around trying to get in at least a little bit of practice before the job tomorrow. I hadn't held a sword in a few years and my skills were a bit rusty. I twisted the katana in my hand and flipped it around. I held out my arm and pointed the katana at him.
"Wow there. You can put the sword down" Hotari held his hands up.
"What are you doing here"
"Well, you are at the main estate what do you expect" I had come since it was the only place with open space for training. I was hoping to find maybe a younger assassin in training to brush up on my skills but to my luck, I had no avail. I walked over to the porch and grabbed my water bottle opening it and taking a big gulp. "I actually came here looking for you"
"That so," I asked
"Yes, I'd like to go over our strategy for tomorrow night's plan" that would probably be a good idea.
"Alright what are you thinking" he smiled and pulled out his phone. He pulled up an image of their hideouts blueprints. I noticed there were multiple entrances that was good. "I was thinking we go in and start from the top and work our way down."
"Take care of the head first. Good idea" I wiped the sweat off my face and closed my eyes leaning my head back. "I'll take care of that"
"Slight problem their boss's room is in the middle of the building" shit that was a problem.
"How long of a walk is that?"
"About 7 minutes" fuck even if I was able to get pure oxygen before going in I could probably only hold my breath for 5 minutes. And if I'm walking probably even less. "There's a security room only about 2 minutes in though"
"Alright, I can work with that. Take out the security and then they lose their communication. Use your flashy quirk to lure them out and I'll go in and take out whoever's left" he looked at me wide-eyed.
"You've gotten better at this." I smiled
"I'm not a kid anymore you know that. You should be taking my pointers" I knocked the water bottle against his head and stood up walking away.
"You know I wasn't lying about missing you" I stopped in my tracks. "You've grown, back then you were still young and I couldn't imagine myself in a relationship with you. But now" He stood up and got closer to me. I could feel as he stood right behind me. He pulled my hair back and neared my ear "Now I don't want anyone else to have you" I could feel his breath on my skin. I shuddered. He noticed and chuckled. His lips traveled down to my neck and I could feel his breath. He was millimeters away from my skin. Before he could make contact I activated my quirk and turned around pulling out my katana.
"Don't ever do that again" he chuckled
"I thought surely I had you there" he looked me up and down.
"We're done here" I slid my katana back in its sheath and began to walk away. "Don't be late tomorrow or Ill kill you myself" I flipped him off on my way out. What was his problem? Why was he trying to cause an even bigger drift between us right before this job. Does he want us to fail? He was giving me even more reason to leave this stupid association. I thought back to last night.
"I'm taking a break after"
"This is coming out of nowhere" Mori tried to reason.
"I've been working since I got to the association 17 years ago"
"And you've never once complained so what's up with you now. You have a home, money, what more could you want" I stayed quiet "You're going to look for him again aren't you."
"What if I am" I looked up to meet his eyes
"You tried 5 years ago and you failed. Give it up already Rin"
"No"
"Why not" he knocked his fist against the table
"He's the reason why i"m here. He lied and now I'm stuck with you"
"You rather be in a mental facility and be tested on?" I stayed silent. "You can take a week off"
I stood up taking both suitcases with me. "Don't expect to see me anytime soon Mori. I'm tired of your bullshit"
He thinks that I'm always going to be by his side and he has to know that if I wanted to I could tear down his little organization. I may be an employee but by no means am I a slave and he had to know that. I was simply lending them my skills. I was angry. Angry at Mori, angry at Hotari, and angry at myself for not doing anything about it. I got to my car and drove to the nearest bar.
Next Night
I tightened my belt that held my sheath up making sure it fit comfortably. I stood atop a building a block away from the Eastview Gang's hideout. I was wearing a simple outfit. Black pants and shirt. I had a few gadgets like pockets for smoke grenades and extra knives. I had a face cover since I knew there were no black cards issued for new members and I'd rather not kill innocent teenagers so I didn't want them seeing my face.
I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket and picked it up. "I'm in position. Once the explosion goes off you go in". Hotari explained. "Sounds good" I shut my phone putting it back in my pocket. I looked around the outside of the building seeing a few guards standing around just drinking and smoking. Suddenly I heard the explosion on the left side of the building. I saw them all run leaving the door wide open. I jumped from building to building finally making it to the door. I took a deep breath then walked in.
I took a right then a left and found the door I was looking for. There was a guy standing outside. I pulled out my other phone and swiped through the pictures. He didn't have a black card issued for him. Suddenly I heard a commotion on the other side of the door when it suddenly opened. A man who I recognized from the black cards came out "You newbie go outside and aid with the commotion" he nodded running down the hall. I used this time to walk into the room I looked around and saw TVs with cameras and a whole security setup.
The guy closed the door locking himself and me inside. I sat on his chair and let out a deep breath. He turned around and jumped up in surprise. "WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU" he fumbled to get his gun. He lifted it up and tried to shoot me. I had my quirk activated so it went through me. I stood up and walked toward him. He tried to shoot me again but I knocked the gun out of his hand. I pulled out my katana and held it against his throat. "You may not know who I am but I know who you are" his legs gave out. "Aww don't act so scared. I'm not going to kill you just yet. I need you to do something for me."
"What do you want"
"Tell your guys to go outside and help with the commotion. Don't tell your boss though. that's all I ask" I grabbed a walkie talkie on the table and handed it to him "If you don't then I'll tear out your fingernails one by one. you choose" he lifted the device to his mouth
"The guys need any backup they can get outside. If you're available go help. Don't let the boss know it's not that big" he put the walkie talkie down "Can I please go"
"No." my smile dropped "You're wanted for the murder of 7 adults and 3 children when a bomb you set up blew up inside a building."
"Please, I-i had to do it. or they would've killed me"
"Don't apologize to me" I slit his throat. My heart jumped a little. No matter how many times I did this it never got easier. I walked over to the cameras and shut them off. I pulled out my radio jammer and connected it to the power. Now they couldn't communicate. I took a deep breath again and walked out passing as gang members made their way outside. After a few minutes, I made it to where the boss was. I turned my head to look down the hallway. I saw one guard. I pulled out my phone and saw he was on a black card. Another one wanted for murder. I held my breath once more and walked down the hall. I pulled out my sword holding it against his throat. I let out my breath and pushed my sword in against his throat. He went limp. I quickly grabbed his body and positioned it in front of the door. I knocked on the door and held my breath. The door opened and his body fell forward. But what I didn't expect was to meet someone else's blue eyes on the other side of the door.
