Your POV

"YOU HAVE TO STOP BLOWING UP BUILDINGS WHEN YOU'RE UPSET!" Clyde yelled, standing up and slamming his hands on his desk.

"I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT!" I yelled back.

"UGH!" Clyde took a deep breath in and sighed. He opened a drawer behind his desk and pulled out a black leather book.

"What the hell is that?!" I asked.

Clyde slides the book across his desk towards me. "From now on, you will write your stupid emotions in this stupid journal," he said.

"No way!" I quickly grabbed it and threw it at his stupid face.

He swiftly dodged and it slammed into the wall behind him. Clyde breathed heavily and muttered, "Oh, (Y/n)... you need to find a better way to release your emotions, and that does not include damaging property of others," he said calmly.

I sighed and slowly nodded my head. He picked up the journal and handed it to me.

I turned on my heel and grabbed the doorknob, opening the door. "And by the way," I said over my shoulder. "They were going to blow that building up anyways. I was doing them a favour." I stormed out and slammed the door behind me.

...Time Skip...

Dear stupid journal,

If Clyde wants me to write my stupid emotions in this stupid journal, I'm going to do a stupid great job! Why don't we start with a short introduction, then?

My name is (Y/n) Liao, adoptive daughter of Clyde Liao. Clyde, my "dad", is the owner/leader of The Divine, which is a secret intelligence agency. We specialize in assassinations, car chases, and finding people who don't want to be found.

We basically try to maintain balance in the world.

Who am I kidding?! We do more damage than good, well, at least I do.

What else... oh I have purple eyes... but that's a LONG story.

Hm... I guess I haven't really talked about my emotions that much, have I? Well, I guess since nobody else will read this, I can talk about Travis Valkrum.

Let's just say that we've known each other since I was 14. Oh, yeah, I'm 19, and Travis is 20. I've kinda had a huge crush on him, but I think that he thinks of me as his little sister... *sigh*... Yes, I just wrote "sigh".

I have a huge meeting with all the elite members of The Divine, so I guess I should get going now.

I'll see you tomorrow.

I closed the leather journal and put it in a chest I had on the side of the couch in the living room.

It was already late so I decided I should probably go to bed. I walked up the marble stairs to my room.

My house was one of the biggest in the Phoenix Drop area. It was so big that I would find myself getting lost in it sometimes.

I moved here when I was 16 because I wanted some freedom from Clyde. It was too much seeing him at home and in the office.

I lied down in my bed and turned the lights off by clapping my hands. Oh my Irene, I love this house.

Not too far after, I drifted off to sleep.

...Time Skip...

"Wake up, (Y/n)~Chan!" A sharp sting on my cheek jolted me out of bed. I rolled off of the bed in surprise and landed on the floor.

"I'm so sorry, Miss Liao, I didn't mean to make you fall out of bed, it's just that you're such a heavy sleeper!" Kawaii~Chan sincerely apologized.

I lazily stood up and almost fell over, but the meif'wa caught me. I looked up and smiled at my best friend. "'Morning, Kawaii~Chan!"

Kawaii~Chan, a pink-haired meif'wa. She's been working with The Divine as my assistant for 5 years, now. She tends to add Japanese things to the ends of people's names, but it doesn't really bother me. For others, I'm not sure.

She used to belong to the Meif'wa Secret Intelligence Company, but she wasn't suited for their type of field work. After Clyde put out an opening for an assistant job, Kawaii~Chan's agency applied her and she got the job!

She's not that strong in hand-on-hand combat, but she's a good sniper and can escape any situation. She's also not a bad get-away driver! But the main thing she does is help me at home and with all my paperwork and documents. She's gotten pretty good at writing apology letters to people...

"Sorry to have bursted in, Miss Liao, but you're going to be late for the meeting!"

My eyes widened. "Oh, schnitzel! I can't be late again! CLYDE'S GOING TO KILL ME!!" I shoved Kawaii~Chan out of the room and got ready.

...Time Skip...

I got to The Divine's headquarters and bursted through the doors with Kawaii~Chan trailing behind me.

The doors to the only elevator working were starting to close so I ran at them. "Hold the elevator!" I yelled. The man inside widened his eyes before grabbing the doors. He pulled them open and I successfully tripped on the ledge, collapsing into him. Kawaii~Chan tripped over our legs and landed on us in a heap.

We all groaned. I looked down to see a man with blond hair and teal-blue eyes. "I am so sorry, Garroth!" I pushed myself and Kawaii~Chan off of him and stood up. I grabbed his wrists and pulled him to his feet.

"Late again, (Y/n)?" he taunted.

Garroth Ro'Meave. Blond, blue-eyed, and extremely annoying. He had two younger brothers who both belong to a different... corporation...

Garroth is part of the same elite crew I am. He specializes in hand-on-hand combat and car chases. Unfortunately, he's lacking everything else in the brain department.

I hit his arm. "You're not doing much better, now, are you?"

He chuckled as the doors opened. We all made a mad dash for the meeting room. Garroth grabbed the handle but it wouldn't budge.

"They've started the meeting without us!" I whined.

"Don't worry, I got this." Garroth took a few steps back before knocking the door off of its hinges.

The door landed on the ground with a thud as all the heads in the room turned.

"Sorry we're late!" We both said in unison.

Clyde slammed his head on the table and everyone else sighed. We smiled and took our seats, mine on the left side of Clyde.

"Okay, now that everyone's here," Clyde glared at both Garroth and me. "Let us get started on Mission : Shadow Knights."
