Prologue
A large building stood tall in the night sky. The entire building was owned by one man. Mr. Stuart was a man not many people were fond of. He was greedy, rude, and generally a horrible human being. Some people would go even as far as to say that they would want to kill him. However no one did of course. No one would be stupid enough to actually murder him. Tonight however, there was someone who dared to kill him. Two guards blocked the entrance to the building. They both wore bullet proof vests and tactical helmets. One of them was suddenly knocked to the ground. Blood was oozing out of his neck. He had been shot.
The gun that was used to kill the guard had a silencer so as to not make any sound. The remaining guard raised his weapon. He turned on his night vision but it was already too late. Before he knew it his throat was sliced and he dropped dead. Mr. Stuart sat at his office counting his money, most of which he gained illegally. As he turned his chair to face his desk he saw a dark figure standing by the door. "I was wondering when they would send someone after me." Mr.Stuart said with a chuckle. The figure slowly walked out of the shadows to reveal herself. She had an hourglass figure and wore a black suit and mask. "I'm surprised you were able to get past all of my guards." Mr. Stuart said as he slowly reached for a button below the desk. "I'm just pretty frikin good at my job I guess." The assassin said with a shrug. "Are you sure?" Mr. Stuart said as he pressed the button.
Suddenly an alarm rang out. The assassin quickly pulled out a pistol and shot Mr. Stuart in the forehead. "Yeah. I'm sure." She quickly ran out of the room. All the guards were aware of the intruder. As she ran through the halls of the building bullets were being fired from behind. She turned her head around as she continued running then shot three of them with her pistol. She then pressed a button on an earpiece. "This is Talin. The old man's dead. I'm gonna need a ride." A man on the intercom responded to Talins request. "Why do I hear shooting in the background?" The man asked. The man had a slight British accent. "I don't have time for questions Ethan! Get me a helicopter!" "The boss wanted this to be a silent operation." Ethan said with a smug tone.
"Well how was I supposed to know he would've had that stupid button under his desk?!" "Very well then. I shall send in one of our copters. Don't die." As she continued to run more guards were after her. She threw a grenade in the building causing a large explosion killing most of the guards. However when she turned around there were 5 guards standing in front of her, all armed with assault rifles. "Crap." Talin said to herself. She then pulled out two pistols. The guards fired at her however she was able to quickly slide under the gun fire.
She then sweeped a guard's leg, then shot another in the face. She then quickly pointed the gun behind her, shooting another guard directly in between the eyes. The guard that was knocked down quickly stood up and kicked one of the pistols from Talin's hand. He then tried to swing a right hook at Talin but she quickly dodged, pulled a knife from her pocket then stabbed him in the back of the neck. She quickly pulled the knife out with blood splashing from the neck. Right after she pulled out the blade she quickly threw it at the last guard's face. "I'm right outside the window. I've noticed quite the amount of gunfire from here." Ethan said on the comms. "Stay close. I'm gonna jump." "You're going to what?!" Ethan asked with concern and confusion.
Talin shot at the window three times, shattering the glass. She then jumped over the pile of bodies that she created and ran to the window. She jumped out and grabbed the landing skid then pulled herself up. Ethan looked at the destruction caused by Talin. Ethan was a relatively young man in his mid twenties at least. He had light skin and dirty blonde hair. "That's quite the massacre you caused. You didn't have any help did you?" Talin took off her mask. She had light skin and short hair that was white at the top and black and shaved at the bottom. "Nope, I did it all myself. Pretty frikin cool huh?" "Yes..... that was... quite impressive..." Ethan seemed deep in thought. "However the boss wanted this to be a silent operation. That did not at all look silent." "I was being as silent as I could. He sounded the alarm so I couldn't exactly be stealthy after that." "And why exactly did he sound the alarm, Stacy?" Talin looked to the floor. "Because he saw me and I gave him enough time to react." She mumbled. "Precisely. You need to take out your targets swiftly. Never draw it out."
"Since you know so much about this, why don't you go ahead and do it your frikin self?." "I am simply an advisor Stacy. I am unable to fight these battles." "Be honest with yourself Ethan, you signed up as an advisor because you're too weak and scared to get your hands dirty." Stacy said with a grin. "I don't get my hands dirty because where I'm lacking in strength I make up for in my intelligence. Which is something you lack as seen by tonight's incident. Now shut your mouth. I need to focus on flying us back." The helicopter took off into the night sky.
