I. ITS QUITE SIMPLE

To think I would be spying on the most prestigious family in the city, for my parents nonetheless, is quite a peculiar way to go about my day.

What could I possibly say, it is what I grew up to know. Being a conniving vixen and a backstabber. All in the name of business.

Normally I would not speak against my parents but this was too much. This particular family is famous for many things, power being one of them.

"It's quite simple my dear. All you have to do is infiltrate their security and give us access to their database." said my mother.

"That way we will know who they are making business deals with and possibly intercept them." Said my father.

'It's quite simple!' This is absolute madness. The plan itself is just borderline stupid.

But all this bantering is useless, I have indeed found my way into the Senju manor unnoticed.

I should thank them for hosting a mask party. Quite convenient, and I would say I looked quite beautiful this particular day.

I wore a black dress which was sparkly, but not too much that it would catch too much attention. It hugged my body favourable to show my womanly figure. It was quite a long dress but parted on my left side all the way up to my thigh. Exposing my beautiful legs. Added complimentary black shoes, stiletto to be precise. And finally, my red earrings, to compliment my red mask along with a ruby necklace.

I made sure to blend in with the crowd and was careful enough to make small talk and introduce myself to a few people. It was going smoothly and I managed to remain inconspicuous.

As I was talking to a pink haired lady, who her name I did not bother memorizing, a man who I assume is part of the Senju family caught everyone's attention and all eyes were on him.

He looked quite elegant. Long ironed dark brown hair, tan skin, to top everything off he wore a grey bottleneck and a brown two-piece suit. Complementary jewellery, that is a silver chain and silver watch.

He stood on a miniature stage and began his speech.

"Good evening, I am quite honoured that you have put aside your busy schedules and found the time to make an appearance today. I welcome you and please enjoy yourselves "he said as the crowd gave a soft applause.

'Quite befitting of the rich, even their applause is dignified.' I mentally sighed.

"It's a truly special day, as my daughter Tsunade is celebrating her 18th birthday. Though her mother, sadly, is no longer here to celebrate with us, I assure you that we truly appreciate your presence. Thank you and happy birthday Tsunade."

As he says this his hand outstretched to turn everybody's interest toward the long staircase adorned with beautiful white carnations and red ribbons.

At the top stood a beautiful blonde girl. Wearing a golden ball gown decorated with glitter and what I assume is diamonds. The dress was absolutely breathtaking, it exposed her delicate skin as it had no arms, which showed off her shoulders.

'A princess indeed.'

She descended down the stairs to meet her escort, who took her hand into his and lead her to the centre of the ballroom.

Her escort was a white-haired boy with long spiky hair held up in a pony tail. He dressed elegantly as well and the music commenced to announce the first dance. Suddenly the boy handed Tsunade back to her father, so that they could have the first dance together, and stepped back.

'How touching. This is my opening.'

All eyes focused on the father and daughter, queuing me to slip away from the crowd and make my way to the restroom. There I removed by necessary tools; an empty hard drive and a memory stick containing a software virus.
