IN THE country of Tuwes, a vast and rugged land in the west part of the continent of Haris, home of the thundering waterfalls and high mountain peaks in the countryside. Where luxurious buildings tower over the busy streets in the cities.

A certain woman in black was mounted on her motorcycle, riding it fast as if she owned the streets of the city. Four more people were riding along her, following the path she was taking.

"Colonel Corvo, we've received new information again. This time it's about our current mission," one of Thanara's member, the hacker, said through the earpiece. Kasalukuyan siyang nakasakay sa motorsiklo niya at mabilis na nagmamaneho papunta sa isang port kung saan isang black market ang nagaganap na kagagawan na naman ng Perseus Mafia.

"From that anonymous person again?" she asked and her team's hacker said yes. "What's the information?"

"There are military men involved and we have to be careful because they're heavily armed."

Napailing na lang si Thanara. How can that anonymous someone message them anyway?

Pagkarating nila sa port ay totoo ngang may mga kalalakihang naka uniporme ng pang-militar na nando'n. They have big guns with them and there's also a lot of them. But she's Thanara Cleous, one of MAKEN's second division's best agents. Hindi siya natatakot sa baril, malaki man o maliit.

Pumwesto siya sa likod ng isang barrel at binunot ang baril saka naghandang lumabas sa pinagtataguan niya papunta sa loob ng warehouse. "On the first gunshot," she said before going out and shooting the men closest to her.

When her comrades heard the first gunshot, they immediately came out from their hiding spot and fired a round of bullets.

The enemies also started firing at them. Gunshots after gunshots. Babaril saka magtatago kapag naubusan ng bala.

But Thanara doesn't like hiding. Sumugod siya habang nagpapaputok ng baril, at kapag nauubusan ng bala ang hawak ay nakikipag hand-to-hand combat siya sa nalalapitang kalaban. She would run, jump, kick, punch, and turn to bring her enemies down. And just like that, she and her team were the ones left standing, with one to none injuries from their side.

Nakita niya sa peripheral vision niya ang isang lalaking nagtutok ng baril sa kanya. Just before she could turn her head and aim her gun towards the man, a gunshot echoed.

Nang tuluyang malingon ni Thanara ang lalaki ay patay na ito. Lumingon siya sa pinanggalingan ng putok ng baril at nandoon na naman iyong misteryosong lalaki.

A man wearing a black cap and a black mask. Kagaya ng lalaking nangingialam palagi sa mga mission nila kapag related ang Perseus Mafia. They had always tried to catch him, pero 'pag tapos na ang mission nila ay agad na itong umaalis.

Thanara assumes it's the same person who sends them information.

Ni-retrieve lang ng team niya ang mga armas na nasangkot sa black market bago dumeretso sa headquarters nila. Pagkarating sa HQ ay balak sanang magpahinga sandali ni Thanara bago umuwi pero bigla na lang silang pinatawag para namaman sa bagong mission.

"This mission focuses on killing the heir, Keir Drystan Perseus, and collecting as much information about the Perseus Mafia. Your mission, Agent Corvo, is to assassinate him. Then the rest of the mission will continue. Agent Corvo, you will lead the team I'm assigning to you to dispose of the rest of the Perseus family and the higher ranking members of the organization," the Lieutenant General of MAKEN's second division continued explaining the mission. "You will be given a year to complete this mission. Before the mission lasts a year, it should be completed. Is everything clear, team Auton?"
