The Killing Of Agent Hart

I Brought Wine ?

Maya -

I was standing on the rooftop of the NYLLS building tying myself to a harness "Maya I'm here" Zay said walking through the rooftop door "I need you to come down with me" I said holding up a second harness. Zay presses his watch button and his spy suit engulfs him and he attaches himself to the harness. Using one of the spy gadgets that turns you invisible to people who are in 5 metres of you, We begin to abseil down the side of the building to the 16th floor. On the way down I give him a briefing of what's gonna happen, he pulls the glass cutter out of my bag and attaches it to office 143's outer window.  The tool extends out long blades and cuts an even circle around the glass and falls inwards, shattering.

Zay and I climb through and search for the file. We check drawers, cabinets, cushions, under the rug and everything. His office was completely trashed and there was no sign of the file. Sitting on the floor, I lie back in frustration and grunt "why is this so hard" I cry covering my face with my hands "just keep looking" Zay said rummaging through the cabinet for a 3rd time.

I look up above me. Through his glass desk I see a beige file hidden between the glass and a big placemat his computer is sitting on. I instantly got up and pushed everything off the desk, getting Zays attention and lift the placemat to reveal the file. "I got it" I say opening in and scanning through the pages headed : the lightland gem

Current position:
In Transit

The file read, "in transit? In fucking transit to where" I rage again "it doesn't matter. We got the file let's just get it back to Mr Lopez" Zay said heading towards the hole in the glass. We made our way to the bottom and headed to the NYDLS.

"I hope you have that gem" Mr Lopez said as we come though the door together. "Not quite..the file says it's in transit but from searching through the office there were no files on where it would be going and his computer had too many protection passcodes on it" Zay said defending our position.

"Hmm okay. I'll get the coding team onto cracking his computer. Your off the hook Zay. Maya can you stay" he said taking the file from me. Although he's the boss of the 'bad side' he was a surprisingly nice man sometimes. Zay left the office and closed the glass door behind him

"Maya I need you to kill someone for me. It shouldn't be too hard. He's a guard for the NYLLS. He guards the underground lab. I just need you to put these in his drink or something. I don't care how just do it" he said handing me a bottle of pills. I sucked in a shaky breath killing people gave me a thrill, as horrible as it sounds. It made me feel alive in the weirdest way. Guilt always found it's way to me but only for a few hours then it's gone. We learnt it in training.

I took the pills from him and in a heartbeat I was standing outside his apartment with a freshly cooked pizza. I had emptied the contents of the pills over the pizza in light shakes to make the tiny grains look unrecognisable and then knocked on his door. A tall, skinny man opened the door. His eyes instantly attached themselves to the skimpy delivery outfit I was wearing.

"I moved in the building yesterday and I happened to see you walk by, I thought it give someone as good looking as you a pizza for dinner" I said seductively, licking my lips "I live in the apartment above maybe you should stop by when your done" I winked, handing him the pizza and sashayed my way away from him before he could say anything else just hoping he took the bait.

8:00pm

"Hey peaches. Lucas was acting a bit weird when you left at lunch today. Do you think maybe you could check up on him? His address is 30 avenue street xx"

Read the text from Riley. Maybe a chance to talk to Lucas wouldn't be too bad, I mean he must be better company then being alone right ?

I decided to take the subway to lucas' house. I loved being out at night more then I did at day. I stopped off at a quick shop and continued my walk to his door, knocking 3 times.

The door flung open and in front of me stood a shirtless, surprised, wait..kinda really good looking, Lucas. "I brought wine" I justified holding up two bottles. Lucas laughed lightly and stepped aside allowing me to come in "what brings you here Maya" he said sitting on the couch

"Hmm Riley asked me to come and check up on you because of like I don't know..I don't really care...She said you were being different or something? Do-do you have any wine glasses?" I ask all over the place, distracted by the half naked man in front of me "umm no I don't think so" he replied. "Ugh" I grunted rolling my eyes "you been here like 2 days and you don't have any wine glasses yet?" I said annoyed. I tapped the side of my watch which allowed objects you think of to appear in front of you. Another spy feature.

A wine glass appeared on the table in front of me, I leaned forward and picked it up pouring the red liquid inside "wow yours can do that?!" Lucas asked amazed "yours can do" i said pulling his arm toward me and doing the same thing to his watch as I did to mine. I passed Lucas the tall wine filled glass, his fingers brushing against mine as he took it making us both pause for a second.

"So why were you acting weird" I ask turning to face him "can I be honest with you" he replied slowly, i sucked in again nodding allowing him to proceed "I've always felt protective Over my family, over Riley and auggie. And when I met you and from being around you for only a few hours I instantly felt the need to protect you. I don't know if it's because your my sisters best friend..or if it's because you work for bad people and have a high chance of getting hurt..or..or I don't know" he said, taking a rather large sip of wine

I contemplated on what to say for a few seconds..no one has ever really felt that kind of protection over me. I mean yea I have my mum and shawn but that was it. And to be honest it warmed my heart a bit. I'd never admit it though. "I killed someone today" I said plainly, sipping my wine. Fun fact! Wine helps with guilt. "Who" he asked softly. "I don't know some skinny bodyguard who works at your lab" I said nonchalantly "oh..OH" Lucas said as he caught on with who I was talking about

"We'll it's part of a mission. Your just doing your job" he said tucking a piece of hair behind my ear "it's kinda cold down here do you have a bed?" I asked standing up, picking up the wine bottle and making my way up the stairs. I heard a light chuckle come from the room I was just in, without even realising I bit my lip to try hold back a smile.

"Your cheeky you know that" he said finally making his way into his bedroom to see me already tucked into bed with a full wine glass and the bottle beside me "I do. Now get in to bed I wanna keep talking. Tell me something interesting about yourself" I replied pulling back the covers. Lucas climbed into bed and turned to face me "One time I helped birth a cow" he said a glint of hope twinkling in his eye that his story would pass the interesting test 

My serious face soon cracked and a laughter broke out within us "your such a dork tell me something better" I said between laughs, we soon calmed down and he told me more about himself. Maybe he isn't so bad.
