Certainly, here's the rewritten text:

Midnight, 17th September 1976

RING, RING, RING

"Mrs. Hargreeves, I have important news for you and your husband. I need both of you to come to my office right away."

I rise from my chair, grab my jacket, and head to the door. This isn't the first time the handler has called me, but I ignored it because I was supposed to be retired from being an assassin.

Upon my arrival, I see my husband waiting in front of the building with a case in his hands.

"She called you too, great," he says as we walked inside.

"What do you think it is this time? I'm supposed to be retired from this, and so are you, Five." My words sound harsh, and I try to convince myself to stay calm.

We exchange looks before heading into the office. Five opens the door as I walk in. We both observe the handler, who is smoking weed while going through the papers on her desk.

"Well, Mr And Mrs Hargreaves, you came early. Have a seat. I think you both must be curious why I called you two here. You are here because I want you two to time travel to the past in 1948; I know, kind of a long way. I need you to kill the headmans from exposing the timeline to the world ." She smokes.

" how long do we get to do this mission? A month or two?" Five ask.

"8 days."

I looked at five, and his expression turned surprised. Eight days isn't enough for us to complete the mission.

"So what are the roles for us" I asked

" One of you will be a lawyer and a journalist. Five is going to be a lawyer, and you, Mrs. Hargreeves, will be a journalist. Is it clear you start tomorrow"

The handler gave us a case for us to travel through time. She gives us a smirk.

"Well, I, think that's all for us to discuss. I hope you two will do the best for the commission"

We walked to the car Fives looked at me.

"I'll drive the car, you relax?" he asked.
