It was late when Kaveh was called to the boss's office. 1am to be exact. As he groggily walked the long trip, he stopped to look out a window. You could hardly see the stars because of the light the building let off. But he could still see the moon. He had no time to admire it though, realizing this a little too late, he rushed to the bosses office. why did it have to be so far?

he pushes open the door to see his boss at his desk with a slight glare.

"Your late" he says

"Sorry sir," Kaveh says. Holding in a yawn and trying to keep a stern face

"yes well You're probably wondering why I asked to meet you so late," the boss says. A strange tone in his voice.

Confused, but looking for an answer, he responds, " yea i guess."

The boss opens his mouth to speak,"
you know our most recent project right boy?"

"Yes sir. With the knowledge capsules." Kaveh says with the hope that he's right.
"Correct. I believe someone may have found out. You know good and well what we are doing is far from legal. If this information gets out the academy will be ruined."

The room gets tense all of the sudden.

the academy cant go away. It's the only place that hired him after all. How would someone even get the information about the knowledge capsules?"How did the information get out?" Kaveh says, with a bit of a quiver in his voice. "Well we figured out the mole, but he refused to tell us who he gave the information to. But we have an idea of who it already is. Do you know a man by the name of alhaitham?"
It hardly rings a bell. Maybe he knew him, or maybe he just recognized the name, it doesn't matter.
"No sir, I don't."
"Good. then I shall give you a mission. With a high reward as well. All you have to do is assassinate him and steal the documents that were stolen. I trust it won't be an issue?"

What? He wanted him to kill someone? Kaveh had never killed someone before. But the high reward was too tempting. He needed to pay off his debts. And this man was a thief. Yea alhaitham was a thief, or he helped a thief...whatever that doesn't matter."y-yes sir i accept."

"Good.good. I look forward to seeing how you go about this. You are dismissed"

Kaveh walked out the office thinking about how to kill someone he never met, and the fact that he has never killed, let alone fought someone. Was very worrying to him. "What is that man even thinking" he mumbles" we have top level assassins here why would he pick little ol me?" he grumbles as he takes the long walk back to his room. " I need a plan at least. This is a man who stole documents from a high security building." he thinks as he scrolls on his computer.

He decides to search up his name. He types it into the search bar and begins scrolling. Soon he finds that the man alhaitham is looking for a roommate to share the rent with.'' I thought he was rich. Why does he need to share his rent? Maybe he's not as rich as he says he is." kaveh chuckles at this idea. A man pretending to be rich is something he finds to be quiet humorous.

He decides to message this alhaitham. Hands practically shaking when he does so.he decides on Saying that he's just an architect looking for a place to stay while working on a project for a few months.

Yea this will work. It has too. He cant lose his job, or to be honest, he doesn't want to be killed.
After a While of thinking about this, kavehs phone pings on his desk. Looking over, he sees that alhaitham had responded. Suddenly Kaveh gets nervous. " this is it. This is what decides it all oooh he's gonna say no. He totally knows who I am. He knows what in doing an-" he rambles as he turns over his phone.

"Ok"

"Oh..... i wasn't worried at all"

As they message back and forth they agree on a time for Kaveh to look around the house in person, and to Make sure it's the right place and what not. ooooor to take in the surroundings and potential murder plan. While messaging, Kaveh couldn't help but feel giddy. It's a huge mission after all. He giggles "This alhaitham guy won't know what hit em." Kaveh thinks with a big grin on his face as he decides to try to sleep.

It was strange that he was looking for a roommate. Kaveh thinks. Maybe it's to avoid suspicion? I wonder what he looks like. He didn't have a profile picture of himself after all. Not like Kaveh did either though. So I guess it's ok. Although thoughts like these threatened to keep him up at night, he fell asleep rather quickly. It was 2am now anyways.
