As I set my clipboard on the table, I calmly look at Kasey as her eyes are set on that pardon. Considering the environment I'm in, it's perfect to give it my all to extract as much information as I can. For the Accord Agency, interrogations are our best lines of offense in getting the nooks and crannies of our enemies. The Glass Box, one of MacArthur Prison's famous interrogation rooms, is one with a bulletproof glass that seals every inch of the room without any holes. The glass' slippery material and air duct on this box's ceiling makes this place "escape-proof". The only way she could escape is the use of the door behind me, which taken into the fact that she's handcuffed to the table, making my job a bit easier.

I then take a deep breath and stare at her seriously, as I ask the first question.

"Now, may I remind you that while no one is hearing our conversation inside, there are still security cameras that will keep an eye on us. If you try anything funny, it will catch you in action. Got it?" I said calmly to her, which she nods in agreement.

Even still, she looks at me with a mix of determination and anger on her face, which didn't scare me for a bit.

"Alright, let's begin." I said as I noticed a walkie-talkie on the table and throw it away from us, surprising her as I check my list.

Once I did, I look back at her and respond, "Sorry. Had to take precautions since you're a hacker."

"Linrov... I don't even know how to hack that bloody thing." she explains with a sigh as I put my finger to my next question.

"Exactly." I respond.

She looks at me with a glare as she clenches her fists, something that I usually expect from her rebellious side as she usually does that back in our school.

I've gotta use something that will either let her cooperate with me... or blurt them out of frustration.

"Wait!? Wait! Think about what you're doi..." said the guard in fear as I already made up my mind and blow his brains out with my silenced M9.

(sigh)... That was a bit close for me. Had I failed to eliminate the guard from his post, he'll alert the others, making me say it again: would make the mission more harder than usual.

"I told you to shut the f*ck up. That way, I would have just let you live..." I said seriously to his corpse as I put another bullet to his skull, making sure that he's really dead.

"... except that I would lying." I continue as I grab him and pull him away from the open, hiding his body in the shadows.

Once placing his body away from the open, I do a double check on the tech I brought to see if they are operational.

My client filled me in on the details before I go forward with my task. The Grappling Gauntlet is a device outfitted with the strongest cord from construction companies. Built simply for combat, it has a faster spin that allows its travel to go fast, get quick on close range engagement and help me disable my enemy's ability to fight with the aid of the gauntlet's sharp-bladed hook. If I ever was spotted, this will come in handy as a way to quickly go up and head to a different direction that was considered "unreachable." It's the perfect escape tool.

After inspecting the first tool in my disposal, I then pull out my rifle and take a look at its design. Built for medium and long-range engagements, the EBR is a semi-auto rifle that was issued to US soldiers during the Afghan War. Based as a compact version of the M14, it has a collapsible stock for concealment purposes and has an aluminum body with telescopic rails. Although similar to the ones that the Accord Military use, this is an improved upgrade as many parts of the rifle are both collapsible and detachable. It's a perfect tool for assassination and has builds that allow me to conceal it.
