Name: Luciana Crest
Gender: Female
Job: Assassin
Type: Field Agent
Status: Deceased
That's what her file says now. That's what it has said for five years.
But, what others don't know, is that she's out there. Alive. And hiding.
~~~~~~~
Luciana has completely cut off ties from her former friends and family, letting them believe she's dead. What else would you do when you had a lunatic, who wants you dead, behind your back?
She's living out in the open with a fake name. She starts to feel almost normal. Except for the fact that she doesn't really try to interact with a lot of people which makes her come off as standoffish with her neighbors. Who has time for that, really?
Everything seems fine for the first five years.
And then shit hits the fan.
All because of one mission.
Mission: 803

"Surprise?"
He was still looking at the gun, which I didn't let waver.
"I didn't know you still kept a gun"
"How inconvenient for you."

Now Whose Got The Gun
I clutched the gun to my chest. The blood on my hands, outfit and hair knotted with it. The body stared up at her, mocking her. I finished the job. But why did I feel so empty. The assignment was to kill the target, not everyone that I did. But they always said whatever it takes to get the job done. I killed people for a living. I was good at what I did... I enjoyed what I did. Memories were filling my mind too quickly to stop them so I just let them run their course. *** His weight disappeared from me and his hand grabbed the front of my leather jacket and yanked me to my feet. One of his hands were wrapped around me throat while the other was flicking a switch blade back and forth. I stared at it, flicking in and out addicted to the trance. I looked up as his voice interrupted me. "What am I going to with you Liza?" "I don't know brother. Why don't you tell me?" "Hmm," his fingers brushed my face. He was vulnerable; I stepped on his feet and watched as he yelped in pain. I reached for the gun on the mantle behind me. I cocked the gun, the safety clicked off. "Liza?" His voice was weak and frightened. "Please." He was always a good actor. His eyes were betraying his words. They were dark with vengeance and fury. His body lunged towards me. I pulled the trigger, hearing a noise echo in my ears. I dropped the gun on the ground. My feet slowly dragged my body over to Liam's body. His fair blonde hair was turning a darkish yellow red from the blood spilling from his lifeless body. Previously named: 'I'm Back, And Now I Have A Gun'Complete
Shattered Vows
Second story in GV series. Can be read as a standalone to Unspoken Bonds. ***************************************************** The past never truly fades. It lingers, like the sting of an old wound, like a shadow stretching across time. Gunny had thought he buried it, thought he had locked away the betrayal, the fury, the ache that came with her name. But when she walked through the gates of KMA again, years after shattering his world, he knew the past had only been waiting. Vidya. She stood in crisp military uniform, her shoulders squared, her chin lifted with quiet defiance. She looked unchanged, yet different. Hardened. The same eyes that once held warmth for him now held something else-something unreadable. He had spent years imagining this moment, envisioning the ways he would make her suffer as he had. But nothing could have prepared him for the storm that raged inside him the second he saw her. She wasn't supposed to be here. She wasn't supposed to return. Gunny clenched his fists, his jaw tightening as he took a step forward. Vidya met his gaze, unflinching, her expression calm. But he knew better. He had once known every emotion flickering beneath that composed exterior. For years, he had lived with only one truth-she had betrayed him. She had taken everything from him with her silence, her lies. And now, fate had placed her back in his hands. This time, she wouldn't leave unscathed. This time, she would pay.Complete

❝ A sniper doesn't always need a partner, they just need someone to give the signal. ❞ Going solo gave you a lot to ponder on, especially given a mission that isolated you from your daily life of sniping up dozens of armed agents per hour. A change to braids and glasses wouldn't be too bad for one mission. Just follow the girl, keep an eye on the girl, and continue for two years. Simple. Throw in assassins? Simple. Throw in traitors? Simple. Throw in a baby? Simple. Throw in poison? Simple. Throw in intruders? Simple. Throw in love? E R R O R . Check twice before messing with the quiet and the nerds.

Ty!) #1 Missions #2 Assasin #3 in Action (highest rank) #3 in Agent She may not look like a killer but she is like a predator. She can easily kill you~ The life Chloe Rivas had before her sixteenth birthday seems like someone else's, and perhaps that is the truth: there are two versions of Chloe. The bubbly teenage girl dealing with boy problems and strict parents. And the cold hearted assassin dealing with death and an evil boss. You wouldn't recognize the girl she was before she got taken away and put in a team with the two guys she would die for, the team is her family now. She has done missions week in week out, like a routine. Until that routine got rudely broken by a new teammate: Drew Matthews. His arrival sparks something in Chloe that she thought had left her years ago: love (and hate, let's be fair). But the presence of the mysterious new teammate is nothing, nothing, to what mission is to come. Death was always on the corner for Chloe, but this mission brings her face to face with it.

Tried For Error
"Previously known as... Scarletstroke: Girl assassin" * No hesitation * No killing of children * No killing of innocent people * No emotions * And defenitely, NO falling in love ~ Those are the main rules code named Scarletstroke, former assassin Scarlett Gonzales lives by. She is a highly-trained, highly-precise and highly-dangerous killer who considers herself the same as any other businesswoman, doing 'just her job' and convincing herself that she is dealing with 'just her target' rather than a person. She succeeds in contract killing better than any known assassin that ever existed and successfully ignores all feelings or emotions, knowing that they tend to make the "job" not go as planned. So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head. Although, what she finds in that world isn't quite what she expected. Now, torn between duty and passion, Scarlett must decide if she pulls the trigger or if she becomes the target herself? Who knows, maybe he might be the answer to her deepest desires. Because her next target: Cayden Carlisle. +++ The culprit took in a deep, calming breath. "You may as well shoot me now, but just know that I am still going to kiss you." By the time he grabbed her waist with one hand and her wrist, connecting to the hand holding the gun, with the other... she was lost. Completely gone. She never stood a chance. His smell, his mouth, his soft growling noises. They were more than enough to disarm her. "I finally figured something out about you." He whispered, pulling her closer, trying to meld every part of her to him. "You display all your emotions through body language. In this case, your hand is betraying your mask." Every word of his was chosen for maximum impact. No wasted syllables, no extra breaths. Just facts.Complete
