Diamond Skin[DISCONTINUED]

I think it's high time we meet...

Mariko stood in from of Pandora with a hard look on her face as she finished giving the woman her Mission Report personally, minus a few details she wanted to examine later. Pandora sighed as she rubbed her temples tiredly, looking up at both Mariko and Rosa, who was surprisingly calm as she was scrutinized by her boss.

"This...this is bigger than we originally thought." She said, clasping her hands on her desk as she thought out a plan of strategy, "And you're sure this information is correct?"

"After giving him a good deal of pain and a mental shove? That man had no way of lying to me, what he spoke was truth."

"I also cracked a few files that you sent me. The information is also in code, but what I did crack is concerning." Rosa handed her a file before fiddling with her fingers unknowingly. Hazel eyes alert as she watched the two carefully.

Pandora read those as she spoke,

"Is there any way to track down those Sleeper Agents?" She asked, her warm eyes flicking towards Rosa.

The girl shook her head, "If there was one, I can't find it. But the information is still mostly coded, so there's hope yet to at least figure out what their activation words are."

"They can't all be the same, right?" Mariko asked, her mind turning its gears slowly.

"They could but that's not likely, so the de-activation words are probably personalized for each person as well."

Pandora closed the file and leaned back in her chair, thinking. Mariko studied the black symbols on the wall, while Rosa muttered solutions under her breath as she mentally thought out the encryption. The symbols on the wall represented the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Mariko personally had the symbol of Death branded into the small area behind her right ear, so other agents knew what branch she was in. Rosa had Conquest on her right wrist and War for her left, to honor her parents, but she would personally get a hybrid of Death and Pestilence on the base of her neck if promoted. Pandora had all four going down her spine with Pestilence at the top for her original rank. It was an old tradition that helped agents know who goes where. Finally Pandora nodded to herself as she rubbed at the tattoo that wrapped around her wrist like a snake that showed her rank,

"We'll call SHIELD, but only Nick Fury. Not the Council, not any other government system jut him and The Avengers."

Mariko agreed with her, Rosa perked up at this as she slyly suggested,

"I can hack SHIELD's system and give you a direct link to his personal phone."

Pandora smiled at the suggestion and gestured towards her personal computer. Rosa wasted no time in hacking into SHEILD's data base with a grin, in seconds they heard a ding and a ringer go off. Pandora sat in from of the camera and waited. When the screen filled with a stern face and one brown eye filled with eternal, cool rage she smiled politely,

"Hello Nicolas Fury, it is a pleasure to finally make your acquaintance." She said cheerfully. He scowled at that only made Pandora happier,

"And who the Hell would you be?" He asked in a flat tone.

"I've been code named Pandora like those before me who have been the Director of Pandora's Box."

Now he looked intrigued as she studied the woman closely, Mariko stayed silent as she observed the two converse.

"I heard that one of your agents has repeatedly encountered with my team, and killed two of the suspects we were planning to question."

"Yes, and I apologize on the behalf of Agent Scythe. She's more...animalistic...than most people. More focused on her target and how she escapes the scene. My best Reaper in fact."
