Masked Assassins (Hiatus)

...And your father... (Flashback)

They arrived at the isolated but regal building, a tall white hall that used to be the townhall, before a fire sprung out and they built a new one, be renovated the old one to honour those who died in the fire. Not many people but the thought counts, and it was declared unsafe and unfit for use, even though it has working electricity, gas and water nobody uses it. Unless you count these illegal meetings with the assassin communities, the main two are EE and MA, others include the Merry Men, or MM, a small group of men from the MA who go on their own missions but join the MA from time to time. Another one was the Pixie Dust, PD, named after the class A drug that was known as pixie dust, the second most illegal substance it the area. Its a small group of women who definitely not just pretty faces, the group is split into two, winged and wingless, wingless being the criminal side and the winged, help to fight with the law rather than against it.
Regina walked in through the main entrance, Robin through the back. Regina sat down next to a woman, short dark hair and green eyes, she knew EXACTLY whom she was sat beside. Robin on the other hand sneaked up onto the upper level that looked down upon the lower floor.
Mary Margret POV
I had been sitting in this chair, waiting for the meeting to begin for over an hour. I was sat the the far left near the back with an empty seat beside me. I needed to find out about this guy the FBI wanted. He was a valuable member of a rival assassination group called the Enchanted Executers, EE for short. But he seemed to also be wanted by the Masked Assassins, a smallish community of highly trained agents who worked wearing masquerade masks, not revealing their real identity. Why did i know so much about this? Well apart from working with the FBI on this case for quite some time, both my parents were involved in this business, my father was and still is, leader of the EE, my mother was a co-owner, but both had previously worked for the MA. After my mother died, i knew i would get forced into that line of work, so i ran away, changed my name and made a new life, the FBI knew about my old life though, that's mainly why they wanted me on the case, but apart from them and David (my fiancé) nobody else knew, not even my daughter.
My thoughts were interrupted when a woman with short raven hair and mocha eyes sat beside me. I wondered which society she was from, since everyone in here had to be from one, i was pretending to be part of the PD winged, but she was unfamiliar.
"Hi" i suddenly snapped out if my chance, realising i was staring at her.
"Oh-uh sorry, hi" i smiled, but inside i was quite annoyed she decided to sit beside me, there were plenty of empty seats around.
"You okay? You look kinda down" she asked raising an eyebrow, if she was faking concern, i was definitely fooled,
"Oh I'm fine, just slightly annoyed that this thing hasn't started yet" i said gesturing around the room, she chuckled slightly,
"How long have you been here then?"
"You ask a lot of questions miss" i said bluntly,
"Well maybe if you didn't act so mysterious i would be so curious" i glared at her, she glared back,
"Well let me ask some then" she nodded, "okay, uh... Which society are you from?" She raised an eyebrow,
"Tell me yours and i may consider saying mine" she smirked, that smirk annoyed the crap out of me.
"PD, winged PD" she laughed a bit, "what!?"
"Look here" she said beckoning me towards her, she leaned towards me, right next to my ear, "I think we all know that you Miss Blanchard are part of no PD" she whispered. I backed away instantly, how did she manage to find me out, i was one of the best undercover agents if the FBI.
"Well then, how would i be here if I wasn't?" I asked defensively, trying not to blow my cover even though she already seemed to know plenty.
"Well isn't it obvious. Your Mary Margret Blanchard" she whispered into my ear, "your an undercover agent for the FBI, working on trying to find out about my ex-fiancé. You got in here by agreeing with the PDW that you were a part of their forces. C'mon Agent Blanchard, keep up!"
"Who the fuck are you!?" I hissed,
"Duck"
"Wha-" but i was cut off with her pushing me down off my seat. I was about to shout at her, saying she's completely crazy before she quickly slid down and a loud bang was heard, a gunshot!
"They found me!" I whispered to myself,
"Really? It wasn't that hard to figure out"
"Can you answer my question please?!" She started taking her jacket off,
"What?" I looked at her, she was now taking off her shoes.
"Who are YOU!!?" I hissed again, she turned around and grabbed her bag, trying to find something. Everyone was now screaming trying to find who tried to shoot someone.
"Does this answer your question!?" She shot back pulling out a purple mask, a purple masquerade mask!
"You-you the purple mask?" I asked in shock.
"I prefer Regina" she grinned whilst fastening the mask to her face. She didn't look like she was the one behind the purple mask, the purple mask was famed for her amazing gymnastics ability that allowed her to get out of almost any situation. She stood up but ducked almost instantly as a bullet shot past her.
"Why are you still lying down?" She said quickly,
"Wel-"
"GET UP! People are shooting at YOU!" She ordered, but then she quickly fastened a blue mask to my face,
"What the hel-"
"No time to explain, just come on!" She said pulling me up, not long after a third bullet shot past, skimming my arm. "I thought you were a good FBI agent!?" She hissed pulling me behind one of the decorative pillars for cover, bullets whizzed past,
"I am!" I said bluntly, she groaned and faced me.
"When i tell you to, run to the toilet doors-"
"But thats where the bullets are coming from!" I protested,
"Look agent, this is a life or death situation. If you don't go when i signal you, it's curtains for both of us! Now quite whining and man up a bit, knock the guy out or something" she growled, she was clearly getting fed up of me, and i could say the same for her. Then without warning, she ran out towards the stairs. I gasped seeing how wreak-less she was, yet she still didn't get hit.
Regina POV
The gun fight had started, and this Mary Margret was a total wuss. I'm surprised she hasn't burst out in tears yet, but by the look on her face, it clearly was the biggest she's been in. As soon as i reached the stairs, i heard some footsteps running down, probably to come and cut me off. As soon as they reached to bottom, i lifted my leg up, hitting the guy in the face. Groaning he stumbled backwards, i quickly got behind him and held his arms in the air, in one was a large pistol. He struggled but i quickly brought the gun down on his head, knocking him out cold. I released the weapon from his grip and started firing back. I couldn't believe me and Robin forgot to ask Belle for ammunition, i felt like such an idiot. But it felt good to have the upper hand. But where the hell was Robin?
Robin POV
After hearing all the shots going on around me, i peeked from behind a pillar, luckily this place was full of these massive purely decorative pillars. I saw a tall thin man, shooting down onto the lower level. I was glad I agreed to go o the top floor, otherwise we wouldn't really stand a chance against these snipers. I crept up behind him without him noticing, and pulled out my gun, but when i pulled the trigger, only a clicking sound came from it, causing the man to turn around, seeing me pointing a gun at gun face. I shrugged and hit him over the head with it before he caught onto what was happening, i lifted the hood from his face to see, Jefferson? From the Wonderland Clan? I thought for sure this was going to be against the EE, but the WLC was fine with me. A group of people who basically do anything to protect their products, drugs mainly but weapons too. But they wouldn't act out without specific and good reason to, they avoided conflict basically wherever they went, more defence than offence. I quickly looked down onto the fight going on below me, Regina and two large muscular men were having a brawl, and by the looks of things, they were crushing her, literally against a wall. But i know she would flip if I attempted to help her, she was too stubborn and i knew it would be the death of her. I looked and Jefferson who was slowly waking up, i grabbed him at the collar of his shirt and pinned him against the wall,
"What the fu-oh its you!" He groaned,
"Why exactly are you going all offence mode? Almost killing two agents?!" I hissed, Jefferson was normally leader of field missions, so maybe he could call off Dweedle Dum and Dweedle Dee downstairs, which was their agent names.
"Well maybe because one of the agents got in the way of us killing the FBI agent? This agent, Blanchard, she's trouble!"
"What did she do?" I asked,
"She was the reason why we had to set up shop elsewhere, twice! We were TRYING to save you and Miss Purple down there some trouble and do the job ourselves"
"Well for your information, we're not here to kill her, Gold wants her for something. And you know what Gold does if someone interferes with the job he wants done-"
"Okay I'll call em off!" He shouted, shaking himself free from my grip, "HEY DUM AND DEE! CALLING IT OFF!" Immediately they stood frozen, one of them holding Regina in the air, squirming as she tried to get herself free from his grasp. You couldn't tell them apart, they were twins, identical obviously or at least someone cloned the other. "PUT HER DOWN DUM!" Jefferson shouted, hesitantly he dropped Regina on the ground, she quickly scuttled towards the toilets where the woman was.
"That her?" I asked pointing at the black haired girl, Jefferson nodded.
"White Rabbit won't be pleased we're coming back empty handed Robin."
"Well its either that or you have all the MA to deal with, i doubt your quiet little society would want all that publicity." Jefferson shook his head, i nodded, then an explosion echoed throughout the building. We both looked down the see rubble and dust surrounding the bottom floor, "A bomb!?" I shouted,
"Hey! Wasn't us! We only planned to kill the girl and bring her body back to HQ." He protested, i knew it wasn't theirs. Its not something they would do, but that meant another group was threatening our mission. Some shouting was heard and some hooded figures were running down the stairs, the colours they were wearing were either black or dark grey, the EE.
Regina POV
The explosion had happened in the middle of the room, it was quite small but still did some damage. Some shouting was heard through the smoke, I recognised one of the voices and knew at once who they were. I grabbed Mary Margret's arm and dragged her into the female toilets,
"Whats wrong?" She whispered,
"Its the EE" i hissed, she looked at me confused, "you know, the one which you were researching into to find the identity of that guy" her expression didn't change, "YOUR FATHER'S GROUP!" I whispered loudly.
"Wait how do you kno-"
"I know everything about you! Can we have this conversation AFTER we're out of harms way!?" It Was a rhetorical question but she still replied with a nod. Robin hid on the top floor whilst all the Wonderland Clan evacuated. The EE was the top rival clan of highly trained assassins of the MA. Every fight was unpredictable and hard on both sides, especially since most of the clan are made up of ex-members of the MA, including my ex-fiancé and the person who killed my father.
"Okay...uh-we need a plan-and fast!"
"Thank you Captain Obvious" i sighed, it really surprised me how dumb she was acting. Especially since she was considered one of the best FBI agents.
"Well the EE is basically the most violent and vicious societies of assassins around!" She stuttered, "we can't underestimate them!"
"Oh don't worry, i know of their work. Better than most." I whispered the last part, but she must of heard because she asked,
"What do you mean by that?". I sighed,
"I'm not going to discuss my personal life with an FBI agent i just met and seems to lack any form of common sense!" I hissed. She looked taken aback but nodded all the same. As the smoke died down slightly, the front door to the building burst open. A man with blondish brown hair and blue eyes held up a pistol shouting
"EVERYONE FREEZE!", more men entered the building but the blonde guy started scanning the area,
"He came for me!" Mary Margret whispered to herself,
"Sorry, did i miss something? He came for YOU?" I asked, she tilted her head,
"I thought you knew everything about me?"
"Not what people you know look like! Apart from your parents... Everybody knows the Blanchard's" she nodded,
"Well, that's David. He's my-"
"Fiancé, i know." I interrupted, she giggled slightly. But then shots were fired, i looked up to see about three hooded figures shooting at the people who came running in, who I assumed were the FBI. "They're trying to gun them down, we've got to distract them!" I hissed, Mary Margret nodded. I looked up, scanning over the three figures, I instantly recognised one of them and froze.
"Purple? Whats wrong?" Mary Margret said waving her hand to snap me out of my trance, i shook my head realising we were stuck in the middle of a gun fight. "You know any of them?" She asked, i nodded, tears visible in my eyes. She obviously knew then not to go any further, the last thing she needed to know was that Daniel was here, as one of the gunmen, on the opposing side. I continued to look around, i could see Robin taking cover behind one of the pillars so he wouldn't be seen, then an idea hit me!
"I got it!" I said quickly tapping Mary Margret's arm,
"What, a plan to sort the out?" I nodded smiling, "well what is it?",
"First if all, hows your aim?"
