part 5

y/n's pov:

"welcome child."

it was thanos.

he was sat in his golden throne, looking like a proper leader. a king, even. dare i even say he looked... powerful as such? he knew how to look intimidating.

"hi thanos" i said with confidence in my voice. i didn't sound scared one bit. in reality, i was mildly petrified. i mean, 4,500 people in a room with you is quite much.

"i suppose you know what we are here to talk about today" he spoke.

"i do."

"great. let's get started then."

he continued.

"so, y/n, you should know that your first mission is tonight and you know what you have to do, correct?"

"correct."

"excellent. so, as you are aware, you have an evening meal with our guy. you need to get me an exact copy of his eye. if not, we can't hack into the security base. i hope you understand that if we don't get this, our plan will not work. we have a plan for the next few years. i will inform you of this shortly, but all you need to know at this moment is that we need the eye" he informed me in detail.

"i understand, i will not fail you father. i will retrieve the copy of the eye for you" i told him. i needed to impress him. if i didn't, what will he think of me? i'm a trained assassin, i know what to do. i have to retrieve this eye. my future depends on it.

"i have no doubt of it, my child. now go and get ready - you have a long night ahead. do not let me down y/n. we are all counting on you."

i mean, no pressure, right? if i fail, everything fails. god, i'm so nervous. it's so much. but i have to do it. this is what i've been training for. my first mission.

i can't fail.

i won't.

it was only around 10:30am and i had to be ready by 9pm, preferably before as our reservation was for 9. so, i technically had to be ready for 8pm.

i had booked this really fancy restaurant for us. thanos took care of the cost. i needn't worry about that. he probably interrogated the owner. or killed him. i wouldn't put it past him.

so. because i had booked this fancy restaurant, i needed something fancy to wear. something expensive. something... extravagant. father had left me a rack of dresses and expensive clothes to choose from to wear tonight.

i had a few hours until i had to be dressed and ready, so i spent that time exercising, training and exploring. i didn't eat any breakfast or lunch as i was going to be having a 3 course meal and i wanted to be able to eat it all.

with my look for tonight, i couldn't go as myself. our target knew me. he knew tony, so he knew me. we met on a couple of occasions. i remember the first time we met. i had to dance with him because tony was looking for someone to be his "security breach guard." basically, that night, he was looking for someone to be the eye of his security breach.

flashback to 9 years ago

"daddy, do i look okay?"

"princess, you look stunning. give us a twirl" dad said.

i twirled, laughing and smiling. dad smiled too.

"mummy! look how pretty i look!"

she chuckled. "darling you look gorgeous."

"you look so so so beautiful mummy!"

"thank you baby."

dad picked me up. "can i get a picture of my two favourite girls?"
