 I watch some smoke make its way toward the doorway and pull the mask over the lower half of my face. We go in and shoot them down, making sure there is nothing that will point back to us left behind. I stare at Samantha and smirk, she may not be able to see it but I can't help it. I grab the paper with the research and instructions on it, wouldn't want to leave it behind. I nod to Cyril and we pull out our grappling hooks, getting up just as footsteps start to come closer to us. I turn around and stop, not sure if I am seeing things or if she is really there.

"Hey!"

I turn and follow after Cyril just as Smith gets in. We get out and get to the car without being noticed. I pull my mask down and look back at the building. Cyril looks at me before we jump in the car when we hear shouting. Don't want to be caught here now. In a matter of seconds, we get to another hideout and park the car. As Cyril changes the license plate, I quickly change into my normal street clothes. He comes back in and looks at me with a smirk on his face.

"Drive while I change? Josh is waiting for us so he can paint the car."

We both get out and I go to the driver's side as Cyril climbs in the back. I get in and start off to Josh's place. When we get there I pull into the garage and get out, Cyril not too far behind me. I walk up to Josh and he turns around with a smile on his face. I look around at the few people that are in the shop before focusing my attention back on him. All but two people in here are members of The Academy.

"She's all yours until we need her again."

Josh nods at Cyril before looking back at me, "Your next case is with the cycle."

I look over to Cyril and watch a smile spread across his face, "I take it this is a quick one."

"How should I know?"

I smirk at him, "Because you can look at them and decide on what vehicle we get... That way we get the best one for the job."

Josh smirks, "Yeah... Only a week or two. However, you don't get that case."

I frown, "You are a terrible liar."

He sighs before walking over to a limo, "Yeah, I'm still working on that."

I hold out my hand as he opens the door, he hands me a folder and I open it. This should be an interesting case. If anything it will be a little fun. But you never really know until you do the case. With my luck, it won't be an easy in and out and will take longer than the one to two weeks I was told it would take.

I look over it before handing it over to Cyril, "Getting close to a millionaire are we?"

"More like you, after all, I heard he loves the ladies."

I slap Cyril's arm without looking from the car, "Bummer looks like you are my chauffeur and butler."

"When do we start?"

I climb in, "Tonight."

The door shuts and Cyril climbs in, starting the vehicle, "I've always wanted to do one of these."

I pull out my gun and put it on the seat next to me, "Nothing special about conning rich men into giving you information that you want."

"I like the idea of seeing you in a dress."

I shoot a glare at him and he smiles at me. He takes me to the house we will be working at for a bit. I wait until Cyril opens the door before I get out. We walk up to the doors and when it opens I smile at Macy at the door. She smiles back and when the door closes she holds out her hand. I take it and shake her hand.
