"Azumane calm down... yes I'm fine, he hasn't hurt me or anything, I locked myself in his office with those pins Sugawara gave me"
She continued her discussion with the man, giving him any necessary updates and making him aware of her further plans as she leaned back on the couch and typed away on her laptop. "Yeah, it's hitting him hard, he's not going to be able to fight the fatigue forev... What? I'm not giving it to him! " She shouted in a whisper but the only answer she received was silence, followed by a soft beep as the call had already ended.
Meanwhile, Tanaka sighed in anger and frustration as he opened the computer on the desk, which displayed video footage from the different cameras around the mansion, he slowly examined each screen, seeing that the girl was still in his office.
He started writing down a few things and signed some of the documents, occasionally glancing up at the computer screen, but he had a hard time focusing on anything since his head was still spinning from the poison. So, while he was working there were only two thoughts constantly floating around his mind: Who does the woman work for, and why was she sent specifically to assassinate him?
The man looked up at the computer screen once again, happy to see the man he trusts the most in any operation, walking the halls with ease. Nishinoya had already gotten his foot taken care of, two pistols drawn in each hand as he continued his search, wearing his usual grin.
Kiyoko eventually slipped their phone back into her pocket and sat up as she began to hear footsteps outside of the room, so she put her laptop away and took hold of her rifle. She then aimed it at the door and slowly made her way over to it, listening closely for any movement as she watched the man's shadow stop outside, taking a few steps back and cocking her gun once the doorknob started jiggling.
On the other side of the door was a confused Nishinoya, wondering why his boss would lock himself in his office, was he hurt? Was he hiding away from the assassin he assumed to be wandering the halls of the mansion? Questioning thoughts flooded his mind, but were soon cut off by a familiar voice in his ear.
"Yuu, I'm not in there so watch yourself, it's the woman from before." Tanaka hastily shouted into the earpiece as he heard a gunshot, immediately looking back at the monitor, seeing that the screen that previously displayed his office, was nothing but static. She had shot the camera out.
Which just agitated him even more.
The boy outside heard his boss loud and clear, he didn't hesitate before pointing his pistol at the keyhole and taking a shot, inhaling deeply before kicking the door open and pointing his guns around the room, and spotting the girl. He didn't step in any further than a few feet and kept both guns fixated on her, not exactly knowing what to do next. "What the hell are you doing in here?!" he shouted. "Why do you want to kill my boss?!"
Kiyoko quickly put her pistol away before looking back at the man that has just entered the room, keeping the rifle pointed at him as well. "Your boss threw a tantrum and stormed out of the room because I refused to give him my bag," she started in her usual flat tone. "And if he keeps stressing over little stuff like that then-" she cut herself short, a glint of surprise on her face.
"Aw, I know you! You were with Azumane awhile ago, he'll love to hear about this," she said with a slight grin, the mention of his name made her remember what she was told to do and that she had to do it soon. It also seemed to make the male in front of her visibly a bit nervous.
"Speaking of your boss, where is he? Are you able to contact him as we speak?" She questioned and the man thought about his answer carefully before turning his earpiece off so Tanaka could no longer hear them. "No- I mean yes but he can't hear us right now..." he replied cautiously. Tanaka tried several times to contact Nishinoya after his earpiece showed disconnected, so he was no longer able to make direct contact with him.
"Fuck it- I'm coming up there myself" he muttered to himself before grabbing the small knife on the desk and sliding it into his back pocket so he'd seem unarmed, and he slowly made his way back upstairs to his office.
She nodded a bit once she saw him turn off his earpiece and she lowered her gun, motioning for him to do the same, and he complied. "Your dear Azumane is a close friend of mine and he gave me some instructions, so I'm going to need to see your boss, and soon," she said as she made her way back over to the bag, laying the rifle on the couch and bring her duffel bag over to the desk and digging around, eventually pulling out a small vial and a syringe.
"And if my guess is correct..." she started as she pointed to the broken camera, "he should be here any minute." She added and went back to the desk.
And she was right, only a minute or two later the boss approached the room. "Why should I trust you..? you shot me in the fucking foot you-" He stopped himself as he picked up on the faint sound of footsteps coming their way, and since the door was wide open, Tanaka had no problem entering the room. He held his hands out slightly to show that he was unarmed as his eyes scanned the room and landed on the girl, immediately noticing the syringe she was holding. "What the hell is going on here?" he asked in a surprisingly calm tone as Nishinoya shot him a bit of a confused look.
The woman glanced over at him before grabbing a pack of alcohol wipes, then turning to the bald male and sighing quietly. "Perfect timing, come here for a second and take off your shirt." She said nonchalantly and she stabbed the needle of the syringe into the vile, transferring the liquid and throwing the empty bottle in the trash then motioning to the chair.
"What's that? Are you trying to poison me again? I'm not falling for your tricks. He scoffed and stayed put, not wanting to give in to his 'enemies' orders.
"I'd hurry up if I were you, you can't fight the fatigue forever." She added, ignoring his questions and folding her arms, "I mean unless you wanna take an eternal nap then that's completely fine by me." Tanaka squinted his eyes at her a bit as another sharp pain went through his head, only making him more tired and dazed, he quickly shook his head in an attempt to make it 'go away' before he shot a glare at the girl once again. "What do you mean eternal nap?!" He questioned with a sudden stern voice, obviously irritated from the exhaustion and constant headache.
"I said exactly what I meant, you know how fast it rendered you unconscious after you were injected." She stated in her usual flat tone as she put the syringe down and slowly advanced towards the two men. "The yelling and stress will only cause your body temperature to rise, which will just help the poison spread faster throughout your system... so.." she muttered to herself before abruptly grabbing the bald male by the collar of his shirt, and pulling him down to her eye level before speaking again. "I'd suggest you hop off your fucking high horse and learn to take and order for once. Sit. Down." She said in a low stern voice as well before letting him go.
They were both shocked by her actions and stood in silence for a few seconds before Nishinoya finally spoke up."Boss... I think we can trust her this time-" He said in a quiet tone, not necessarily wanting to go against his boss.
Tanaka glared at her for a moment before gently pushing past her and sitting in the chair, leaning back as he unbuttoned his shirt.
