"the mission brief," zodiac began as the girls stood in a line like soldiers "is simple. We are one of the best assassin groups in Britain. That is not good enough. I want us to be the best assassin group in Britain. There is another group getting in our way, and we must stop them."
"that's where you two come in!" sugar cut in. Zodiac glared at her, but she clearly ignored him. "our rivals have three people, and originally so did we, but now we have you two for an advantage." she smiled, satisfied by zodiac anger. She loved it when he was angry.
"did I say you could speak sugar?"
"I don't usually ask permission."
Quietly, zodiac brought out a gun from his desk drawer. A loud bang echoed through the room, and a bullet just missed sugars head. She shut up.
"as I was saying, there is another group getting in our way, and we must stop them. They are newer than us, but they are slowly taking away all our glory. And even worse, they go for the same victims as us, which is extremely frustrating."
"sir, if I may," envy spoke up. "I visited Tiannie Naylor yesterday."
"ah yes, go ahead. I've been waiting to hear this."
Envy's eyes lit up. She turned to face her audience.

I kept switching the lights on and off, and then shooting some of her valuable breakable stuff, and I even stole her makeup. Oh, and I started whispering stuff like "a girl so fake, and so easy to break, not long to wait 'till she reaches her fate."
Sugar and donuts laughed, and applauded her in admiration. Demon and eagle on the other hand just frowned at her.
"that's a lot of 'stuff'. Diamonds folded her arms.
" yeah. Clearly her vocabulary is limited."
Zodiac brought the conversation back.
" but we can't have fun like that with our favourite victims if this other group continues to advance and improve. So this is why they have to be defeated and destroyed."
"and how are we gonna do that exactly?" donuts asked.
"let me explain.."
