Heroine's Karma (Victor)

Spy!AU

and it goes without saying, I'm not a spy, so if there are inaccuracies about how the whole 'spy thing' works thats why

and I don't mean to purposefully antagonize him but it's how the odds fell into his (not so) favour I guess (also, he isn't meant to be the antagonist, but that doesn't matter rn)

it would make sense if I made a part 2 but this is a oneshot book so for now its a oneshot,

A dark night accompanied by the ever constant buzz of electricity in her ear set the scene, as MC crouches on the ground to feet the floor below her feet. She shuts her eyes, letting her evol do the work as she sees the same floor on the other side of the door.

Three men converse, one crosses his arms and leans back happily. A deep laugh comes from his lips.

'Anything yet?' says a voice through the piece in her ear. She sighs as the scene leaves her vision, and stands as she wipes the dirt off of her shining red dress.

'Not anymore. Be patient, alright?'

She hears him laugh. 'Sorry, Miss.Chips. You're a 'serious spy' now, I've forgotten.'

'Drop it, Kiro.' She smiles knowing no one can see her, and slowly reaches for the doorknob. As her hand reaches the metal handle, a scene flashes for just a second.

A man mirroring her, on the opposite side of the door, the doorknob turns.

She jumps back. When the door opens, the man stands only a few feet away.

'Aye, what are you doing here?' he grunts, grabbing her wrist. 'Looking for trouble? Or are you snooping around in places you aren't wanted?'

'Would you believe I was just missing you?'

To the man she arrived with to the grand gala going on in the ballroom adjacent, her disguise falls, and she hits him, hard. Her array of silver rings have been replaced with a set of brass knuckles, silver and shining, and attached to that was a short dagger used to slash the man's cheek as she kicks him to the floor.

The others jump back, but ready themselves just as quickly as MC enters the room.

'You done?' Kiro asks again.

'Not yet!' She calls as she disarms the second man, her dagger stabs through his jacket as she slashes through his heart and across his chest.

'No rush, but-'

'No. No rush as all.' another cold voice sounds through the earpiece. She recognized the voice immediately, and stopped in her tracks. The final man seized the opportunity, revealing a knife of his own, he easily stabbed through her side and cut through the lower left of her abdomen.

She curses out loud. The injury only stifles her for a second, as she uses the weapon of her own to get him back.

'Are you alright, MC?' asks Ares, his tone is neutral, though Kiro would have sworn to have heard a hint of real concern.

'Fine!' She kicks the final man, breaking his ribs and hitting him unconscious as her final action. 'I'm fine. Just give a second to put the flash drive in... and I'll be out as fast as I came in. Key?' 'Got it.'

'Make them clean deaths, MC.' Ares advises.

'The others will find them soon enough.' She searches the men for anything of use. Of course, all she finds in wads of cash and an array of various illegal drugs. None of which would have helped subdue the ever growing pain at her side. 'They won't draw it back to us.'
