Final Job

Chapter 3: Task

Rissa made her way to the familiar alleyway. Looking around to make sure no one was following, she bent down and pushed aside a large crate. Underneath was a ladder down. She climbed down then pulled the crate back into place. She waled slowly along the long corridor. Pausing at the end in front of a huge steel door. A keypad laid to the right of the door. She took a moment to remember the password, then put it in. 763343There was a small click and the door swung open. She was greeted by 5 men with guns. They stepped aside and let her in. The door shut behind her. She walked the familiar hallway and into the meeting room. There were several chairs. One was taken by Mr. Kirison, her ex-boss. Another taken up by.... She sighed. "I should have known." She said. "Oh no why you?" The boy asked. "Welcome back Rissa!" Mr.Kirison exclaimed. She reluctantly sat down in the chair next to Alex. Mr. Kirison sensed the tension and spoke quickly. "Thank you for coming. I honestly thought you wouldn't come. To make it simple I need your help. The whole Ember does." Rissa and Alex listened with interest. "The Delta has risen once more and they have more members, three times the amount we have. Not only that but they have called war upon the Ember. I need you guys to find out their location and kill their current leader. If you fail then the whole Ember will be eliminated." "Why us?" Alex asked. "You two are the only people who I can trust with this kind of job. Please." Rissa and Alex looked at each other in disgust. "Do we have to work together?" They both asked in unison. "Yes." They took a moment to think it over. "Fine" Rissa said. "I'll go" Alex added. "Perfect. Here is a list of tasks you must complete in order to be successful." He handed each of them a list. Alex and Rissa took a moment to look at it. Rissa looked up. "So the first stop is the library." She said getting up. Alex followed her to the door. "Good luck you two." Mr. Kirison said. The men let them out and they walked off into the dark corridor to complete their task.
