(A/N): And here it is! Now let me explain here! Honestly, I'm actually not shipping them, I just wanted to try out this idea because a good handful of people flipped out when *SPOILER* Sam jumped for Nadine to save her from a bullet and it was a huge shot of just them kind of chilling there and Nadine hasn't yelled at him to get off yet and Sam's just like, (0_0). So, everyone was like, "Be a couple now." *END OF SPOILER* Hope you all enjoy something other than Frozen, Thor, and/or Rise of the Guardians! XD
"What's taking her so long? It's passed eight!" I furiously muttered to my phone as I checked the time. I shoved it back into my pocket and focused back on the Rebel Soldiers in my binoculars. There were four soldiers guarding the entrance to the building of where my adversary studied my next clue of treasure: The Disc of Ganesh.
Suddenly, out of the right side of my binoculars, headlights shined through the glass and gained my attention. It's the man that I've been hunting for weeks and was even stupid enough to fall for his charm once before; Asav. He stepped out the truck all high and mighty as if he was winning the war I stood in. My blood began to boil, but I knew it just wasn't the right moment to finish my problems with him just yet. While I was so focused with Asav, I didn't realize one of his soldiers was beginning to talk into a radio until the last second.
"Night shift. Change your posts." Announced the soldier.
"Damnit." I muttered before grabbing hold of my phone to text Chloe Frazer, my partner during this job.
Chloe Frazer had called me to join her on this job to find the Tusk of Ganesh. She had promised me fifty percent on the Tusk and I accepted her offer.
Unknown: Shift changed
Unknown: Forget the roof!
Once I sent her out a text, I already heard the rooftop door open and I dashed behind a wall nearby. Though, it wasn't too long until I found Chloe throwing herself around the three men that had stepped outside. Already expecting the performance, it didn't look like she could handle them herself, so I finally took charge and dived right into the fight. Chloe had already taken out two soldiers, but the last had her in a chokehold. I didn't want to already have a bloody fist since I already had enough scars climbing the buildings. I took a leap and kicked the soldier right in his face, instantly taking him out.
I turned to Chloe, somewhat pleased to know she could mostly handle herself during the job. "You're late, Frazer!" I spat.
"Nice to see you too!" She replied as if that fight was a breeze to her.
We both heard footsteps behind me before I even had the time to realize what I was already running for behind me.
"Holy shit, they took out the first squad!" One of the three soldiers that stepped outside, shouted.
I guess I wasn't fully focused on the problem at hand and had myself punched in the face by one of them. I was taken aback and finally had the urge to take a swing again. I dropped to my knees and threw my leg under the soldier's feet, knocking him down. Before he could even get back up to recover, I was already on top of him and took a swing to his face. I hurried back to my feet, but another soldier grabbed me by the shoulders and shoved me away. I almost landed on my rear-end, but I regained my balance and dodged a swing at the last second. I took another leap and kicked the soldier in the chest. He staggers back, giving me the opportunity to punch him right in the face.
I heard Chloe still struggling with the last one and came for her aid. The soldier had knocked her down and was so happy he did, he didn't realize my own fist hurdling towards his cheek. The second I made contact, he was knocked out within it. Even though she fought on a decent level, she still alarmed the Rebels.
I looked back at her. "What the hell was that?" I questioned before taking a break. "I thought you were a professional?"
"Oh, you should relax. You'll live longer." Chloe teased while rolling her eyes; she took a few steps around me.
"Relax?" I repeated as I followed to where she was heading to. "It took me weeks to track down Asav. The man's as unpredictable as they come."
"He's just another warmonger with no war to fight."
"No, you don't know him like I do. He changes location and routines by the hour. We'll be foolish to take unnecessary risks!" I began to shout. I felt my blood beginning to boil once more. Chloe is a reckless woman that was about to put me in another dangerous situation that I always accept because apparently, I'm a treasure hunter deep down inside just like herself, but she was wearing the occupation like a badge on her chest.
"We?" Chloe cuts though and by then I had finally hit a nerve. "Let's get one thing straight. This is my gig. You want your share, we play by my rules."
She walks away to look through the Pink Lotus sign. At that point, Chloe had me at the point that made me start to think was this job even worth the stress. The only knowledge she had apparently was the story of Ganesh and how to avoid problems she created. I guess I was in my mind for too long and she grabbed my attention again.
"What's it gonna be?" She asked.
If you backstab me anytime during this damn job, a bullet will be flying through your head before you can even make a run with your treasure, I thought for a moment before walking towards her. Though, someone else had came into mind and his name kept echoing into my head as if I still longed for him; Asav. Therefore, I'm here and therefore I accepted her offer.
I pulled out my binoculars. "He's the one with the beard." I said before handing them to Chloe.
She returns a small smile. "That's the spirit." Chloe replied, then she takes in the face of Asav.
"Hm…" Chloe continued. "Handsome."
Ugh, I thought. "If you're into psychopaths."
"Nobody's perfect."
For some reason, the word "handsome" had bothered me and I didn't even have the guts to glance at Asav; I needed to grab the sign.
"Where's base camp?" Chloe asked.
"Top floor. Balcony."
I glanced at her and shook my head, staring at what was taking their sweet time.
"All right." She says. "Let's do this."
