Ninja Assassin (AMBW)✔️

Prologue

Ayaka's POV:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm sitting at my desk twirling my pencil because I don't have anything to do. I just finished a murder-for-hire case against a politician in Spain. It was a very simple case if you looked closely at the details. But a lot of men aren't detail-oriented. That's why I'm at Europol in Berlin to solve cases against political deaths. A lot of men in power die because of greed, hatred betrayal. Ya'know the regular stuff. But a lot of them die due to assassinations as well.

I'm from Chicago. I graduated high school top of my class and then went to work as an FBI agent. It's hard not only being young but being a black woman as well, but I knew what I was getting into. I solved so many cases there that they transferred me to Berlin. It's fine here, It's a lot calmer than in America. I sometimes get looks and stares. But when you're black you're just used to it.

I don't have many friends. I never have, to be honest. There is one person in my life right now. But I don't know if I would consider him a friend. He is my coworker and his name is Ryan Maslow. We talk and eat lunch together, that's all. I know he has a little crush on me but I've turned him down many times. I don't date, I never have. I bet everybody thinks my life is boring, but I just do what I do and go my own way.

   I don't have many friends because they are troublesome and I don't have time to hang out with them. I don't date because men are trash. Not all of them. But there is not a lot of good fish in the sea. I'm a loner, I think it's the best for a line of work I'm in. You are always at risk and you can put the people you love at risk.

*knock* *knock*

I can already tell that it is Ryan and he is ready for our lunch.

"Heyyyy YaYa" he waved at me while walking through my office.

"Hi, Ryan" I look at him very annoyed. "My name is Ayaka and you know that".

"Aww c'mon, nicknames are personal". I shot him a glaring stare. I grab my things and get up to leave. He opens my office door for me. We start walking to the local cafe down the street from the office. He is chit-chatting and I'm just playing my app games. I'm not that much of a talker for people I don't care for. We sit and order our usual.

"You know you kicked ass on the Spain case" I look up from my drink.

"Thank you, Ryan. You did good on your last case too" I respond politely. Technically Ryan is my boss. But I do a better job than him. I could have his position if I wanted but I don't wanna oversee people. So....... no.

"I'm for real Ayaka. You solved it so fast and efficiently. I'm glad Europol has you for a while". He says talking with his mouth full. I mean gross but whatever.

"Once again Ryan thank you. But what's the favor? You only do this when you need a favor". I say crossing my arms with attitude because I know he wants me to work on a case. I wouldn't have been as annoyed if he had just asked me flat out.

He wipes his mouth. "You always get me. There is a case I want you to look into. This politician was murdered here in Berlin two days ago. As you know everybody in Europe loved him. So, I need this solved as quickly as possible. Because it's getting a lot of media attention and me and my men don't have any leads".

I roll my eyes. It's been two days. The hell, of course, you won't know much. But everyone is impatient and rushed so I'm not surprised.

"Ryan, be realistic it's been two days keep looking for leads. Then if you find some possible ones then I'll look over it. But I'm not just going to take over a case that you can do yourself".
