CHAPTER ONE

~*~

As a 15-year-old girl running from a gang, and, avoiding bullets, I say this is certainly not a normal sight to see for the innocent people walking on the sidewalk. I'm surprise the cops haven't arrived yet with all the sounds of gunshots and the people taking cover. But you see, this is my everyday job.

How did this happen exactly?

Let me explain:

Me, Amelia James, a fourteen year old girl with brown hair was about to make a deal with an international arms dealer, Carl Sinton. I still laugh at his name everytime I see it. But, who would ever make such a stupid deal with a kid? So what did I do? I lied.

Why did I do this exactly?

I was bored and wanted some action.

That and because I'm a theif. People call me Rogue, I'm an international theif. I've stolen many things. Such as, the Winstons' diamonds in Ireland, a very high priced painting in Singapore, the pearl necklace that meant so much to the richest man in Russia, Gale Pepper's wife, Helena Pepper, The crystal heels which cost millions. I could really make a whole list of the valuable things I've stolen.

So I lied, I pretended to be an old mexican guy with millions. The real reason I was in Sinton's man cave was because I was requested to steal Carl Sinton's valuable gold watch.

You see, people call me and I steal for them. I'm the world's greatest and youngest theif. Why am I so great? Because I'm young and no one would expect a girl like me to steal things like these. Sadly, I sometimes don't get the credit I deserve, because I always, and I mean always escape.

But you know, I can't do these things alone. I have Ash. He's been with me since I was a baby. Ash helps me with the fake identities and breaking in. He's an intelligent hacker who's wanted for hacking into a bank and stealing, well let's just say, alot. Ash is a middle aged man who answers the phone calls for me, and whether it's to steal things from the Mayor's vault or fly to Europe and steal secret documents, Ash would always accept and I'd do the job, and get money. How did I meet him? I was a baby left on the doorstep of a hacker's house. He decided he would raise me to be well, like this. He taught me how to fight, shoot, sneek, and steal.

And I do shoot people when it's necessary, on the leg or arm. Just the bad ones though, innocent ain't my kind.

Luckily we haven't been caught since Ash had inserted a ghost chip into all the gadgets, which means no one can track us down. We live in what looks like an abandoned apartment from the outside, but a luxurious one inside.

Now back to stealing the gold watch, I waltzed in, the doors weren't locked thanks to Ash, and nearly got killed, so I ended up shooting the guards on their legs and arms, somehow I manage to do that (proof I'm good at this). But then what I didn't expect was that the watch wasn't in a case, it was around his wrist.

And that's how I got caught and nearly get shot at. Good news though I manage to rip the watch out from his wrist, may have broken his bones a bit.

Back to the present, my hair was tied into a ponytail, I wore my black skin-tight suit that has an R sewed on each shoulder, underneath a shirt and jacket, I usually wear a mask after I get caught, so whilst running, I manage to pull it out from my jacket and place it on. I then threw the jacket away and pulled out my two precious guns on my belt I call Gill and Bill.

"Five guys on the corner to the left, go right." Ash calmly said through the microphone and speaker in my ear.

I turned right, and then slightly turned my head to the back, the five guys at corner joined it with the other ten guys who were recently chasing me. More bullets were fired and I tried my best to avoid it. "They're not stopping Ash." I said.
