Today was the time when Joyce will pay for her landlady. Joyce has almost forgotten to pay her, but she was too busy holding a grudge on her boss. The anger and hatred took on aside of Vittorio. Her hand were trembling violently, until she slowly clamped it into a angry fist. She was breathing heavily. Something inside of Joyce, snapped, she sworn on vengeance on Vittorio. She began to dive into a pool of rage. Swimming in it. She didn't cared about being if she got arrested. She didn't cared about she own her landlady. No matter what it took. Putting all of Vittorio's businesses he owned would be out of business what she only cared about. Joyce slammed her hands on a bathroom counter before she eyed herself in a mirror. Her eye were twitching. She felt a burning sensation in her chest. Her hands firmly grasped onto the sink. Suddenly, a loud bang on the door came from the living room near the kitchen. Joyce turned her head and faced the sound where it from.
"Rent!" yelled a loud high voice. "Where's my money?!!"
It was Joyce's landlady shouting from outside the door. She was here for Joyce could loan her the money but Joyce remained in the bathroom.
"Go to hell, you stinking hag!" Joyce shouted back in a ominous voice. The landlady jumped behind the door. In a fit of rage, she pushed down her feelings to yell, "You listen here, you brat!" she said. "You will loan me the money! I'm gonna get it!" Joyce felt a fuse being lit into a exploding boiling of rage. She wanted her to shut up as she continued swimming in the black pool of hatred and anger. Joyce growled low, teeth showing. Once the angry landlady departed, she slammed the door hard not caring if she woke up all the neighbours. "I've got something for what's in store for you, Vittorio," Joyce snarled as she clenched her teeth angrily.
Later that day.....
The people were looking forward for Emmett Fibs' speech in Orbit City Hall. Emmett Fibs was the powerful businessman in Orbit City. His promise for the people was to clean up crimes in the city. There was Senator Carlson came out from the diplomatic limo as he made his way towards his seat. Emmett and Senator Carlson were greeted with thundering cheers by them. All eyes and ears now focused on today's headline. Will Emmett restored order and peace for the people? There, from a nearby rooftops, Kerionika was sitting behind the mounted sniper rifle she had set up from her seat. She was looking through the binocular for her target. She remotely pressed her right ear, "I've found him," she stated. "What you want me to do?"
"Excellent," Wladek said. "Now I want you to wait 'til the senator makes a speech"
"On it," Kerionika said. Kerionika locked her left eye into the scope of the rifle, zooming in for a better accurate shots. She slowly moved around and watched Senator Carlson pulled out a bottle of water and began gulping down. Evelyn was behind the wheel as she raced her way to save the senator from her step sister. "I hope I'm not too late," she said. She pulled out her phone and dialed the CIA director. Ring. Ring. Ring. Ring. The CIA director heard a quiet vibrate sound coming from near her desk. She picked it up to see it was Evelyn calling her. She answered, "What is it, Evelyn?" she asked.
"I know where she is," Evelyn said. "She's gonna assassinate the senator. I want you to send a message to him"
As Emmett Fibs gave a speech, Senator Carlson was walking to his seat with two bodyguards escorted him on the way, until he felt a quiet buzzing noise coming from his pocket. He pulled out his phone and checked his new message what sent it to him. Senator Carlson was now aware of his situation. His paranoia grew. He leaned in one of his bodyguards, "What you got on the building?" he asked.
"Nothing out there, Mr. Senator," replied the bodyguard. Senator Carlson looked around for every rooftops, until he saw a tiny spec from afar. He squinted his eyes at it for a better view. Once finally arrived just in time, Evelyn immediately hit the brakes and parked her car before stepping out. Kerionika leaned away from the scope after she saw her step sister standing in her way for the senator. She gave out a dirty look towards Evelyn.
"Mr. Senator," Evelyn said. "You gotta leave the area"
"Why? And who are you?" Senator Carlson asked.
"Agent Evelyn, CIA. My sister will kill you when you make a speech after Mr. Fibs"
"The CIA? I'm not going anywhere, lady. I will still make my speech" Evelyn paused. She had nothing to say. She pulled out her small binocular and zoomed in at a nearby rooftop. She realized something....Kerionika, her step sister who was watching Evelyn through the scope. After Emmett made his speech about cleaning the city, he leaned away for Senator Carlson to make his. The crowds were clapping uproariously as Senator Carlson gave it a wave with a smile. Once Kerionika has the senator on a scope, she moved onto his head as she carefully steady her accuracy before taking a shot. Kerionika slowly exhaled from her mouth and..... BANG! Senator Carlson has collapsed down causing him to fall on his back....and dead. The cheering of the crowds suddenly turned to screaming in terror. Emmett jumped in fear. Evelyn turned fast at where the shooter was. She made her way to her car and slid along its hood before getting in. Kerionika stood back and admired her handiwork. She pressed her right ear, "He's taken out, Wladek," she said. "He's sleeping with the fishes"
"Excellent work, Kerionika," Wladek said. "Now report back to HQ"
"You got it," Kerionika said. Kerionika began to dissembled her mounted sniper rifle before she took off. Once Kerionika almost leave the scene, a car were hurriedly drove until it got pulled over to a stop near her. Kerionika widen her eyes. A car door opened up and out came a familiar face that Kerionika had barely recognized that person before gave out a stink eye. Kerionika pulled out her gun and pointed at Evelyn. Evelyn put up her hands, "Kerionika," she said. "Why? Why did you kill him?"
Kerionika had Evelyn at gunpoint. Evelyn began slowly approaching towards her step sister. "Kerionika," she said. "You're not always like this. I know you well. That's not like you"
Kerionika paused. She tried to bottled it up inside. Her hands started shaking the gun. Evelyn watched her step sister's shaking hands on a gun, like she doesn't want to shoot her.
"You don't want to shoot me, Kerionika," Evelyn said. "Deep down, you are my sister"
Kerionika's eyes began to tear up but she tries to keep it in. Her lips started to quiver as she felt herself to break down. She sharply exhaled before clearing her throat. "I don't need your advice, Evelyn," Kerionika said. "I can handle myself"
"Kerionika, please," Evelyn said. "Let me help you" Kerionika ran over Evelyn, leaving Evelyn behind. Evelyn put down her hands. "Kerionika!" she shouted. "Where are you going? Kerionika!" Kerionika continued running without replying. Evelyn started ran after her step sister as she calling out for her. They ran through the streets and out at the docks. There was a only one boat floating still for Kerionika can escape. Kerionika jumped onto a boat before starting up the engine. Evelyn was persistent. She relentlessly chased after Kerionika before Kerionika finally drove away, leaving Evelyn standing. Evelyn let out a sigh. She let her head hanging low and her gaze fell on the floor, and then shut her eyes. "Oh Kerionika....," she said in sadness. Wladek was standing outside of the Titanium Syndicate warehouse, along with Kosnah and two Titanium Syndicate soldiers. They were waiting for Kerionika to show up at them. They saw a boat driving towards them and stopped by. Kerionika swallowed an obnoxious throat. Tears streaming down her face. She wiped it away to make sure she didn't cry. Kerionika stepped off from the boat. "Well done, Kerionika," said Kosnah. Kosnah suddenly saw something in her eyes, a dried up tears. He rose a brow. "What's this?" Kosnah asked as he wiped a tear from Kerionika's eye. Kerionika closed her eyes, slightly looking away. Kosnah rubbed his finger tips together. "Were you crying?" he asked.
Kerionika couldn't answered. Kosnah furrowed his brows.
"I thought you've built better than that, Kerionika," he said. "You've disappoint us"
"I understand that, Kosnah," Kerionika said. Her voice began slightly to break but tried to stay strong. Kosnah and Wladek looked at one on another and then nodded. "Find someone Kerionika knows, Wladek," Kosnah said.
"Right, Kosnah," Wladek said too. Evelyn has reported to her superior back in the CIA HQ about her step sister. The CIA director looked up at Evelyn.
"Well...?" she said. "How it goes?"
"I was too late," Evelyn said. "She already had taken out her target"
The CIA director slowly frowned. "What happened?" she asked.
"I wasn't fast enough," Evelyn replied. "I'm gonna look after her"
"She might kill you, Evelyn"
"She's my sister, and she will never hurt me" the CIA director has a new mission for Evelyn to find out about the Titanium Syndicate's next plan. Their next plan was to deliver a truck full of explosives to Vittorio's drug operation.
That day,
A bank was owned by Vittorio Moretti. It is where they kept and laundered his dirty money. The people were here for their savings until a door was swung opened and out came a foot. It was a blonde girl wearing a black domino mask. She was holding a steel mace and its spiked ball touched the black and white checked floor, scraped against it.
"Nobody makes a move!" shouted the girl. "We're not for you, the money is laundering by the mob!" the people screamed in terror and then fell on their knees. The girl approached towards the bank clerk. The clerk put up his hands, "What do you want?" he asked.
"I'm here to withdraw my balance!" shouted the blonde. "Wheel the money out!"
Then, the security guard had his night stick ready. He swung his stick, but the bank robber listened closely for any movements and breathing until she noticed a faint footstep walking up to her. She turned around and kicked the person in the jaw causing the guard to fall on his back. "I told you not to mess with me!" she shouted. "Now, the money"
The clerk had his fingers flying over the keypad forming a code and out goes a loud beep which means the password was correct. The giant vault door slowly opened showing a stacks of money lying on a bench. He wheeled it out and filled it into a pouch. The blonde carried a pouch filled with money onto her left shoulder. "Now," she said. "I will give you the money!" she began fished it out from the bag and tossed a flying cashes on the people. The clerk's mind churning with questions. Why would the girl started a heist? And why she gave the money to the people? "The money's all yours!" shouted the girl. Their confusion grew. "I'm gotta leave now!" she continued. "This bank is run by the mob!" You can thank me later!" the robber ran out from the bank leaving them taking all the money which was lying on the floor. The bank robber was Joyce. She has put Vittorio's bank out of business. She could see a red and blue flashing lights from a distance. She turned around and saw a black car. She used her lockpick tools to unlock before got into it. She started up a car and then flee away from the scene before the cops showed up.
