It was a never ending cycle, first it was The Facility and my psychotic upbringing being trained to kill and using me to their advantages, now just as I'm getting healthy and trying to come to terms with and leave behind who I was, here these guys come wanting me for their own agenda.

The address they showed me on the video messge sent me to an abandon building on the Jersey/New York border, but I knew they weren't about to send me to the same building they were holding my siblings, so I could only hope that Daniel was working to save them.

The lobby of the building was empty, I got into the elevator and the top floor had a circle drawn around it, when I got there a bunch of guys held a gun on me.

"I'm unarmed" I said holding my hands up.

"We know that but we also know that you're deadly even without a weapon, so here's your first test. Kill these people" a man said pointing to two people with their hands tied behind their backs.

One of them handed me a gun.

"I'd believe you want them dead, if the gun was loaded" I said feeling the weight of the gun, without a mag of bullets it felt hollow.

The man on his knees laughed and let the rope fall, then he clapped causing the men around him to grip their weapons a little tighter.

"See this is why we need her, barely through the door and she's already proving valuable" he said getting up off the ground.

"Ok I guess she could be an asset, bring her up to speed" the first man said.

"First I want you to release my siblings, they are innocent" I said.

"We already released them to your handler Daniel" the first man said.

They showed me a video of the F.B.I taking my siblings from them, Daniel was there.

"So you have me here, what do you want from me?" I said.

"First off you can call me Jordan, now I'm not telling you if that's my real name but it's what you can call me, this is my brother Israel and again we're not telling you if that's his real name" the second one said.

"You targeted people mostly in the Middle East, right?" Israel said.

"Yeah and?" I said.

"Well in case you didn't notice, there's been evidence of a certain leader bombing his own people, we want you to help take him out" he said.

"Why don't you come out and say it, you want me to take him out" I said.

"Can you do it?" Israel asked.

"I can't fail" I said.

"Perfect, we will of course provide whatever support you need" Jordan said.

"Just stay out of my way" I said.

There had always been a plan to take down any leader in case the power went to their heads and they refused to give up their power when their term was over, I happened to make the Middle East plans.

I don't know how these people knew I knew about the sadistic leader, but then I remembered a lot was released when The Facility and The Agency were dissolved.

It took a few days for me to remember the plan for this leader and for these people to get me the necessary transportation, they wanted to send a small team to make sure I did as I was instructed, like sometime in the last few months I'd just forgotten my training.

It wasn't a military plane like the ones The Agency used to send me to different locations, this was a luxurious private jet, so it was awkward as I laid out my weapons to clean and load them.

"Is it true? You were trained by The Facility?" A guy asked as he watched me loaded my weapons.

"Why do you think I'm here" I said.

"What was it like?" he asked.

"Hell" I said.

It didn't seem like he was genuinely interested in my experience at The Facility, but wondering if my reputation proceeded me, if one thing my training taught me it was to be weary of guys like him because eventually he was going to challenge me.

"Is that right?" he said.

I grabbed one of my guns and pointed it at his head.

"You really want the experience?" I asked loading one in the chamber.

"Do not threaten me" he said a little scared.

I pulled the trigger and it didn't fire.

"Thank god for safety, do not threaten me because I will not just kill you but I will kill the ones you love first while you watch, then slowly I will kill you" I said.

"Back off" Jordan said pushing the guy away.

There was a look in his eye that said this was far from over.

"I'm sorry about that, he's lost a lot of family because of this so called leader and to be honest he isn't sure that you're capable of pulling off such a feat, he was originally supposed to do it but his operatives never made it out alive, that's why he questions you" Jordan said.

"But you and your brother believe in me" I said.

"We've seen the videos of your training, it was quite intense" Jordan said.

It wasn't something I wanted to talk about right now though, especially with what they waned me to do, it would throw me off and without Dr. Rockfield to help me get back on track I would definitely fail, so I just shut down and continued cleaning and loading weapons.

Then when we got closer to our destination I briefed them on how it was going to go down, they were to lay low while I made my way to the presidentail palace where I knew the leader was supposed to be because there wasn't any place safer for him and his family, once it was done I would meet up with them and try to get out before the alert is sounded.

Jordan insisted on coming with me to make sure I really do it, Israel wanted to come to but I told him that one of them needed to stay behind and make sure we had transportation out of the country, plus it would be easier to just get two of us out.

Understandably it was hard for Jordan to keep up with me even after all the injuries I had just recovered from I still moved lightly, he barely made it to the balcony of the president's room.

"How come there isn't guards here?" Jordan asked.

"Because it's five stories high and protected against things like bullets and missiles" I said.

"Then how are we getting in?" he asked.

"Well we aren't going to use bullets or missiles" I said as I pulled a knife from my leg holster.

It was barely enough to get the locks open, the president and his wife were both sleeping peacefully and for some reason it made me mad, here they were completely safe and sleeping like babies when his own people had to run from their own homes and flee for safety, the ones that did stay and try to wait it out had to bury their loved ones.

I shot both of them.

"You weren't supposed to kill her" Jordan said.

"She was complicit, which makes her just as horrible" I said as guards started to yell.

They must have video cameras in their room and saw what happened, it was a firefight to get out and it was worse when Jordan got shot in the leg, I had to help him and kill the people behind us.

We barely made it to Israel and the others but once we did they provided cover fire as one of them helped me load Jordan into a truck.

"I take it that you were successful?" Israel said getting into the driver's seat.

"Of course" I said.
