You were finally home and went straight to bed. You will check the news tomorrow at work. Tonight the only thing that you will do is sleep.

Mace landed some hours ago in London. It was still night, so she decided to get some sleep.

At 10:45 am Mace was at the university in London. She sat quiet in the big room.

The female professor at the front held a presentation about how save everyone is. Mace took her phone out and typed:

Mace
Were not that save anymore.
See you outside.

The professor heard her phone vibrating and looked at it. She had for a few seconds a shocked expression on her face.

[after the presentation]

"I won't do it" the professor said to the red haired women. "I know that you've quitted because it's dangerous. But somewhere out there is a really dangerous drive that could kill many innocent people" Mace said with a worried look on the face.

Khadijah sighed and said "Fine, I will listen while you're telling me what that drive can do."

Mace followed Khadijah home and explained the situation "So, there's somewhere out there a drive that can start the world war 3, from simple reach of their keyboard. It would be a cold war and no one could stop them."

Khadijah agreed on helping Mace getting the drive and finding out who killed Nick.

Khadijah looked with Mace through some camera footage from the last mission.

"It's a blind spot" the black haired women said. "Try the satellite or something like that" Mace suggested.

"I already did. It's still a blind spot" she answered. Mace sighed and said "Do you find out from where this women was?"

Some seconds later they knew, that the mysterious waitress and the cafe was  a german spy called Marie Schmidt.

Khadijah searched for Luis Rojas. They both hoped, that he still has the drive. He was in Rome. They both got ready and booked a flight to Rome.

You finally stood up from your bed and went into the kitchen. You poured yourself some cereals into a bowl.

You opened on your laptop Google and searched for the news from last night.

Man murdered in the bathroom
at the night club "Fantastic Night"

Dead man found in club-bathroom

Attack on man while he was on the
toilet

Poor man got shot in the head while
he was in a bathroom stall

You shacked your head in disbelief at the headlines. You're favorite headline was "Man tried to take a shit and got shot in the head". There were even some weird articles about a killer-woman that loves to kill man while they're in the bathroom.

You closed the laptop and decided, that you had enough from the internet for today.

Around 2 hours later you got a call from your "favorite" boss.

"Good morning Mister Palmer. How can I help you?" you asked with a sweet and nice voice, although you despise him.

"YOU KILLED HIM ON THE BATHROOM IN A CLUB? ARE YOU INSANE?!" the man shouted through the phone.

"Yes, I did. You never said how I have to kill him. It was perfect timing" you answered calmly.

"IT IS HUMILIATION TO GET KILLED ON A TOILET! WHAT IF THEY FIND OUT IT WAS THR CIA! THE GREAT CIA KILLS MAN ON TOILET! DOES THAT SOUND GREAT TO YOU?!" he still shouted back.

"Hmm it sounds like a tough death. Nobody will find out who it was. You should trust me more Palmer" you countered back.

He continued shouting at you for 37 minutes. You always answered very calmly and ate your cereals.

Palmer wanted to see your report from last night in 2 hours. You hated writing reports, especially with a really short deadline.

You started writing:
"Agent Y/n Y/l/n spotted the man near the bathroom. She followed him and went into the women's bathroom. Shortly, the agent had the idea to hack the camera in the man's bathroom and found out where Ben Rodríguez, the suspect, was. She took out her gun and pulled the trigger. It didn't made a very loud noise. She checked the live camera footage and saw, that the shadow from Ben Rodríguez changed. Then she decided to go home and sleep."

You didn't mention, that you saw the police cars, because that would only get you more into trouble.

You were done with your report and got the brilliant idea to find out, why the CIA wanted him dead.

You hacked into the system and searched for a clue. 27 minutes later you found some clues, that he probably had contact with the drive.

"Why did they know that? A man like him wouldn't say something to the government. Is there a mole that betrayed him? Was it Nick? No, he's dead get over it. He was nice and sometimes had his secrets, but he never had a really dark secret" you thought.

You still missed Nick. Maybe if you didn't ran after Rojas, he would be still alive. Or maybe you both would have been dead, but at least it's not that bad like living with the fault.

[time skip]

Mace and Khadijah landed in Rome. They found Rojas at a fish market and made a plan. Khadijah supervises the situation throw a live camera footage, while Mace hides and tries to steal it.

Suddenly, Mace sees an familiar face. The german spy Schmidt is walking to Rojas, his bodyguards and the unknown women.

"Looks like she's armed" Khadijah said through the earpiece.

"I take care of her. You monitor the bag" responded Mace.

The german spy took out her gun and smashed it on a head from a bodyguard near Rojas. Marie poured out a pool with ice.

"Tenemos un hombre abajo. Tomar lista. ¡Pasa lista ahora!" (We have a man down. Take a roll call. Take a roll call now!) Rojas said stressed.

Rojas and the women walked faster. He putted an arm around her to protect her.

Schmidt followed them. Mace attacked her and went with her into a cold room.

Mace threw her on the ground and sat on top of her, but Marie threw her of. The red haired women tackled the blond haired women on the ground.

Mace found a pointed object and tried to injure Marie. Eventually Mace lost it in the fight.

She won the fight and searched for Rojas. He was trying to flee.
