Count on Me

Chapter 17

Keeping my distance I followed the black car to what looked like an abandoned warehouse. The car turned into an aley, I suppose it led to a back door, of the warehouse. I parked my bike across the street from the aley,  so that I won't seem suspicious. I got off of the bike, and shooed Calan off. Once he was off,  I grabbed my camera from under the seat.

I zoomed in on the car,  the first person to get out was, Ugly, the person that threatened Laurel's father.He was even uglier through the lens of my camera,his nose was way to big for his face, and a bit crooked ,he had a serious amount of scars, lumps and bruises, and lets not even mention his comlexion.  I snapped a few shots of him,  maybe they could identify him in HQ. The next person to get out of the car surprised me.  Zooming in to,  make sure my eyes weren't decieving me,  I snapped a few more shots. 

It can't be,  MI6 said they would take care of them. But it was him.  It was my target, the one who I had to get the launch codes from,  the one that nearly threw me out of a twenty storey building. Victor Yorvich, aka Scorpion in the mobster world .He was just like I remembered him from our previous meeting,  he had that expression on his face that said 'I'm going to kill you. ' His head was now bald, and it made him look even more scary, and intimidating. He was wearing a large black overcoat,  how he managed it in this heat I could not understand,  although it was autumn,  the weather was still quite warm.  Underneath his coat,  I could see, the pants of what was probably a custom made suit.  And to finish his outfit, he wore Italian leather shoes.

I quickly ducked behind my bike and pulled Calan down next to me, before the Scorpion could see us.  His mismatching eyes looking directly at the lens, and I quickly took the shot,  before anything else could happen.

As he walked into the warehouse, he was folowed,  by a girl, she looked Chinese,  her long black hair running down her back,  she looked about my age.

"So what exactly are we doing here " Calan wispered in my  ear, breaking the silence.

I wirled around and shushed him,  and signald him to stay as I quickly ran across the road, to the warehouse. I headed to the nearest window,  It was slightly open,  so I could easily listen in on the conversation. The window was really dirty, and I couldn't see too well trough it.

"... are we clear on your mission? " Scorpion asked the girl in his thick russian accent.

"Yeah, yeah, I got it,  get intel on her and report back,  I'm not to kill her,  she's yours,  just befriend her,  blah blah blah. " she replied in an american accent,  sounding annoyed.

"Good you start tomorrow. "He said to her,  and she nodded and smirked at me , and then she was gone.

Wait what she was just gone? Something about that seemed familiar...

"Did you see that? " came a voice from behind me,  I wirled around ready to attack whoever was behind me.  But when I saw it was Calan I relaxed a bit.

"What are you doing here, I told you to stay at the bike! " I wisper shouted to him.

"Yeah, but I got curious, and we're a team" he said pouting.

"When did I say. .. Ugh.. Nevermind,  but to answer your question yes I saw that,  is she one of us? " I asked him as I headed back to the bike.

"I don't know,  she didn't look like us. " he said,  looking as if he was in thought.

"What do you mean?" I asked and got on the bike. Handing him his helmet.

He gradually took it and said "Well,  I have never seen or heard of an Inevitable that is chinese, usually they all look like us, this is indeed a wierd phenomenon. " He said, putting the helmet on, and he got on the bike and we rode home.
