"Ring, ring. Ring, ring," my alarm sounded.
Damn, my alarm is so basic I swear-

"Ring, ring. Ring, ring," it continued.

"Oh, would you shut up!" I yelled.
Great, now I'm talking to myself. Fantastic.

I laid on my bed; face flat on the mattress. Should I shower? I mean, I don't smell that bad right? *smells armpits* Ew...nevermind. I'm showering.

I stood up and picked out another set of uniform before I take a shower. Today, I will be attempting to do my makeup because that is what girls do.

-20 mins into me doing my makeup-

Okay, screw eyeliner. I can never get it right. I'm just going to get breakfast from the kitchen.

I walk towards the pantry in the kitchen and-

F*ck. I didn't go grocery shopping yesterday. I'm going to Starbucks.

I slammed the pantry door shut since it has been a bad start of the day. I brought my helmet, wallet and phone before heading out. I checked the time and it was, 09 32.

So, boss wants me at the headquaters at 10 and if I'm not wrong there's a Starbucks 3 minutes away from the office...

I nodded my head to acknowledge that I have done the right calculations while locking the door. I jogged to the parking lot and started my bike.

I don't think that I've introduced myself formally. Hi! My name is Rose Darnella Manchester. I'm 17 and I'm a trained assassin. I work with Innocence Agency because their assassins only kill the guilty and we will never make assumptions until we find solid evidence. I was from Maine but I ran away from the orphanage to New York.

My strengths are:
accurate shooting;
decisive judgement and
being emotionless

My weaknesses are:
terrible punctuality and
horrible planning

It is important to know your strengths and weaknesses as an assassin. According to my weaknesses, I could never become a leader of an event but that's perfectly fine because assassins don't work together. We work individually.

I actually have a portfolio of my trainings and killings. I have only trained to be an assassin for three years and I am proud to say that I am one of the top assassins in the agency.

In trainings, we learnt to use seduction to our advantage and we learn to strike at the right time. Most importantly, we learn to not get shot.

Soon, I reached the Starbucks and ordered a Grande sized iced coffee because I needed it. I also consumed an energy bar that I found in my motorbike compartment earlier. Thank god it hasn't expired...

I parked my bike outside the headquaters and headed to the counter to register my name before entering private premises.

"Hey Rose! Back so soon?" the receptionist asked.

"Hey, yeah. Boss has a new mission for me," I told her.

"Alright, go inside. They're already waiting," she continued.

I nodded and walked through the secret door. This isn't my first time walking in the office but I was always amazed by how general and subtle the interior looked. It screams, "just a normal office." It doesn't have a first impression of an assassin's office room at all.

The lights on the ceiling shone bright. Little potted plants were seen in the corners of room and office desks were seen clumped together in the middle.

I continued walking by all the other assassins and eventually reached the conference room. Knock, knock.

"Come on in, Rose!" a voice said.

I opened the door swiftly and sat down on the chair nearest to me. There were 3 people in the room; the boss, the director and my trainer. They were all gathered to assist me in completing this mission, quick.

"Have you gathered any information?" the director, questioned.

I nodded my head to agree and showed him the papers and reports I prepared. It stated all the information I have collected in one day. I waited patiently for them to finish reading what I wrote.

"Okay, good job Rose. These information are indeed useful. We have also done our part in this mission and we found out about the name of our fellow target; Grayson Bailey Dolan. He goes by Griffin.

And for his fellow twin, we're not sure if he's related to his brother's business but we only managed to find his name which is Ethan Grant Dolan. We couldn't find any information about him which can be quite disturbing as this is a possibility that he's part of the Mafia but that is very unlikely," the boss, said.

My breath hitched. I didn't know we were dealing with something huge. I'm usually professional and I always accept a challenge but I can tell this mission will involve a lot more of thinking and strategies.

"I know we have always assigned you simpler missions but frankly, we don't know if the Dolans are a huge threat. According to our research, they seem to be vicious. Can you handle it?" he continued while raising his eyebrow to ask permission if I would be able to continue the task.

"Yes. Sign me up," I confirmed.

The 3 of them grinned and I was handed a paper which happened to be a document of the case. I signed on the bottom left hand corner to signify that I have agreed to solve this mission. This will show on my portfolio as well.

I stood up and walked out of the office and strolled to my bike. I swung my right leg over the seat and put the key into the ignition and soon, my bike roared to life.

A/n: heyy:) i hope you enjoyed reading this chapter!!
