AGENT RED

CASTLE

I glance my reflection in the mirror, drying my damp hair. My hair color was a dark red and cherry mixture sort of color that i dyed almost like a dark blood color. I tinted my cheeks and lips a little so i didn't look pale. I see a big visible bruise on the right side of my face next to my eye. That Scum bag hit me hard. I covered it with as much foundation but it if you paid attention to my face , you still could see it. I sighed deeply and brushed my mid long wavy curled hair. I pulled my hair into a sleek high ponytail before glancing my self one more time. Everytime I come home from a mission, I glance in the mirror and see a different person. I feel more and more hollow, like apart of me and my humanity is taken away piece by piece. I love my job, i really do, this is the only thing i'm good at, This is all i know. But it's true, this job takes a heavy toll.

I snap out of my gaze and glance at my watch. I quickly realize that i should be leaving to go the palace. I feel the lock pendant that i'm wearing around my neck, i miss them, i prayed silently in my heart for them to still guide me in every mission. I walk out the bathroom and put on my dark brown leather jacket over my black v neck shirt. I take my two duffle bags and walk out of my small room.

I'm walking to the aircraft landing and i see Sam already loading our aircraft I brushed past him and put in my duffle bags. I glance around and see back up teams coming on the plane. I step in our plane and walked up to Sam.

" back up team too? " i asked.

Sam turned to me while he was opening up the weapons valet. " Yeah, Morse's orders. " he said as a clickin sound from a loading gun is heared. He smiles at me and hands me a glock.

i stare at the gun. Is it time to use it again? Its been a couple of years.

" You dont have to use it, you make people terrified just having it." he reassures me.

" Yeah, i dont think I'm ready." i say as i put my guns on my tactical leg holster.

" Did you bring the twins? " i asked.

" How could i not? " he says and smiled as he takes another weapons valet case.

" I got you." he says as he presses the lock and it opens revealing my favorite weapon, my bladed batons. They were black and sleek, perfectly made piece of weapon. It had metal and cyristal blue carvings that mad it looked exquisite, The special part about it, the sharp cunning blades were hidden at one end in each baton. I always pervered knifes and other combat weapons then guns. It gave me thrill.

I Smiled slighly and mumbled a thankyou to him as we entered the inner plane. The plane was big. Really big, it had cabins, a living area, a weapons room, a small aid and experimental room, a weapons area, and a mini bar. Thank the lord.
" Well i cant complain about this. " i said as i take in my surroundings.

" Hey there's some people i want you to meet. " Sam says and motions me to follow him, to what i think is a brieffing area where there is a large screen and a holographic table. We step in and i could see three other people waiting.

" hello.. So nice to officialy meet you.. " a woman who looked to be around my age, chriped happily as she comes towards me and extended a hand. She was wearing a lab coat and blacked rimmed glasses, her bright blonde hair was in a loose ponytail as she smiled so purely at us. I gave her a confused look then looked at her hand then to the other people then finally landing my eyes to Sam who was beside me.

" What is this? " i asked seriously.

He sighed. " this is our new team. " he says as he walks to the table and settles the mission files.

I was cought of guard when he said the word. "team" never would i thought i hear that word to me let alone be in one ever again.

" team? What team? Morse said this was two man job. " i said passing the lab girl abruptly who was still holding out her hand and making my way to the table to face Sam.
