Chapter 1

The sound of heavy footsteps echoed through the halls as he made his way to the meeting room. His hand runs through his short silver hair in slight annoyance, while he went over the report in his hands once more before he will submit it. Reaching a pair of huge white doors he simply went in without bothering to knock, he had better things to do then wasting time on politeness. Three sets ofeyes landed on him immediately as he walked in, as the three men stopped talking over some plans that lay on the table. He didn't pay it too much attention, he didn't really care.

"Ah Kensei~ back so quick?" he brown haired male before him questioned, a small smirk played on his face.

"You doubted?" the silver haired answered a smirk of his own appearing on his face.

"Not at all, there is a reason you here." The man waved his hand brushing off his comment. Yes, there was a reason he was employed by Aizen indeed. "Leave the papers here; I will get Akina to look over those later." He commented boringly as his brown eyes went back to the plans he was looking on previously. Kensei did as he was told and walked out.

While making his way to his room he had one thing on mind. He was dying for a nice sleep; this last job minimized his sleeping hours to almost nothing. For the past two days he was hunting down some guy who Aizen wanted dead - or maybe someone else he didn't really cared. He was one hell of slippery son of a bitch but he managed to get him in the end. He wasn't as smart as him seeing that he eventually fell for his trap.

Kensei was a very skilled mercenary, there weren't a lot of people who could out smart or out run him, at least not for too long. That was why he was employed by Aizen, who made a living and his whole fortune from giving certain services for different people, who wanted to remove someone from their way, forever. He employed the best mercenaries/assassins/hit men in the world and he supplied his services for the people around the world. There weren't someone in the higher-ups who didn't know his name. There weren't many people willing to mess with him when having the best skilled men and women to protect him.

There weren't many women in this hellhole though. There was a good reason to this as well, who in their right mind could live with those twisted people? Well yea he was one of those whose mind was twisted enough to blend in, though when you think of women one in particular came in mind. Akina Takahashi; she was known around here pretty well, especially since she probably was the one that recruited half of the population here.

She was nothing like she appeared to be. First thing that he personally thought of her when he first met her was that she was a chick who got herself into the wrong job, one that should think before she open that pretty mouth of hers. Who wouldn't? She wasn't tall; in fact she was somewhat short really. That didn't stop her from having a model like body and she did had a nice pair of boobs, actually he could stare on those for long if he wasn't afraid to get a bullet in between his eyes (she had a surprisingly good combination of fast drawing, excellent aim and stable hand). To complete the picture she had this long, beautiful, blood red hair and pair of mesmerizing green eyes that can literally get you killed if you stare in them for too long.

This made him think back to the day he had first met her and his life literally changed, though sometimes he wonder if it was for good or bad. He had to worry about nothing anymore really. Not some stupid police on his tail, not about money or paying rent, finding a job… not even to find a woman to fuck. Aizen pretty much took care of everything for them and no one dared to mess with Aizen - No one, not even them.

Back then He was just about to go for a mission that for people like him was literally a dream. He was supposed to guard the head of the Mikaze family and his bratty son on a vacation they were off to, of course this wasn't what made this job easy or a dream as he had defined it. No, he wasn't stupid and did his research, as far as it went that man seem to be clean and have no enemies or any problem with the law. Technically it will be piece of cake. They will be off for a cruise for their private island; he got himself a nice relaxing job with tones of pretty girls to ease his need and good money that will cover his rent for a good while.

That was until a car stopped next to him and she got out of it. At first he thought that she might be one of those guys girls, he kept thinking this for a while until she introduced herself.

"You're Kensei right?" she surprised him when she actually approached him.

"What's with it?" he questioned, his voice sounded annoyed for being held back, though this gave him a reason to check her out if he was at it anyway. He had to say he liked what he saw, if she was going to tag along he will have her in his bed for sure. The next words leaving her mouth had taken him back; he was debating if to be flattered, get angry or actually put his morals away and choke her to death.

Clapping her hands together in delight she smiled widely.

"Ah~ I can't believe I actually finally met you~ I am Akina Takahashi, I heard so much about you… though I have to say they always say your very flexible and fast though looking at you, you seem a bit… heavy? Then again not everything is what it seems. Makes sense you don't give away your supreme intelligence they were talking about, for me you look like some brainless brute… though god that body of yours~" she practically licked her lips as a cat like smile graced her face.

"Listen brat, if you have nothing important to discuss about you better say what you needed and fuck off." He said trying hard to suppress his anger though it was clearly seen.

"Well, they were right about the anger managements." She stated playfully. "But your right, I came here to talk about business and not admire that hot body of yours." She stated with the same light voice. "Aizen has a job for you and an offer you will have a hard time to say no too." This time her features changed into a serious ones, if he didn't see it himself he would have though she was replaced by a completely different woman.

"Listen, you can go back to Aizen and tell him that the answer is no. I am not someone he can hire whenever it's comfortable with it. I have a job right now and I am not in hurry to give up on that." He said crossing his board arms with a smirk on his face.

"Kensei! Are you done yet? Tell that girlfriend of yours you need to work and get on." the Mikaze father yelled from the yacht, soon his son joined him. "Oh this girl is hot, why won't we have her to join?" the young adult yelled.

"Those are the Mikaze males?" Akina questioned looking up at them.

"Yea they are…" his eyes went wide; he wasn't sure what he saw though he knew what he heard, in less than a minute two bodies fell down into the sea below in splash. He did manage to see that she shot them perfectly in between the eyes. He stared in disbelief at the women before him as she once more changed her face. She had this creepy cold look in those green eyes of hers, one that even make the hair on the back of his neck to bristle. He wondered why he didn't see that pistol and where the fuck she actually hidden it, though at first look he didn't really look for one.

"Job done." She said putting her pistol back from where she took it, apparently there was a holster somewhere on her back.

"I believe I never agreed to come with you." His voice rose a bit.

"Oh I didn't mean you. My job was to kill those two." She said in lightly voice, her feature regaining the previous light and cheerful appearance. Seriously he was already way too annoyed, though right now he had no choice but to listen to what she had to say.

"What is that job of his?" he questioned. Noticing two men get out of the car as they began finishing the bodies out of the water.

"Oh leave the job aside right now; it should interest you less than his offer." She said lightly walking over to the car. She opened the door simply taking a seat facing him. "He offers you to be employed by him, and I mean not some random jobs he randomly calls you on. If I were you I would have taken it, you get paid monthly no matter if you did anything or not. No need to pay rent, taxes, and your back is covered completely. All you need to do is the jobs he gives you that suit your specific set of skills." She explained a bit lazily. From the way she talked about it, it sounded like it wasn't the first time she was doing it.

"I don't think this is as tempting you make it sound like." He said keeping his poker face; he did enjoy the view though. His eyes followed her every movement as she stretched with a yawn for what seem a few moments too long.

"Is that so? I will have to insist that you will think of this. There is no police, no one to spy on you. You won't have to worry about finding jobs, which you have to admit them one you were supposed to have now was probably the highlight of your life. No one is really willing to employ an ex-military man who go drunk one night and caused many deaths. To take you down they had to call a special unit and even then you took many down before they managed to take you down." she said with slight smirk on her face.

"We both know I wasn't simply drunk." He said with annoyance.

"Oh right, there was this little drug that was put in your drink. Back then it was a new drug it quickly disappears once kicking in though its effect stays for a while. They found no proof for it being in your drink or blood and you went to jail. The proofs were speaking for themselves or more like the lack of them and lots of eye witnesses. It was only five years later that they found about that drug and how to discover it. They let you out for good behavior and lack of real proof you were really drunk or drugged back then. What they did have is a series of cases like yours that pointed that this was exactly what happened that took place during this time. Since then you're struggling finding a job, you might be innocent and in full control of yourself but people fear you and you can do only those kind of jobs, which I just proved not always being reliable as I just killed your payer." She said chuckling.

Kensei's expression didn't change for better; in fact he grimaces even more.

"Are you angry on me for ruining your job and hurting your ego?" she questioned as she got up and walked over to him standing dangerously close. "I can take care of that and even apology nicely if you decide to consider that little offer." She stood on her tip toes her face close to his, her hands teasingly running up his covered torsos enjoying the feeling of his ripping muscles. Kensei wasted no time in putting an arm around her slender waist and slam her body against his; letting her know that for this offer he is more than willing to listen.

"I wouldn't mind see you trying." He whispered huskily in her ear. Oh he really wondered if that mouth of hers was good for talking only.

"No guns though." He pointed out smirking down on her. Akina smiled innocently, she did leave those to the men that were with her. She was fair at least.

When he finally reached his room he didn't waste time to get in and lock the door behind him. Clothes were discarded pretty quickly and he soon was left in his boxers alone. Surely she managed to convince him to join; it was later when he learned that this was her main job. She was a recruiter. Though owned many different talents, like collecting information, she can make anyone talk though he still wasn't sure what methods she used. She was very reliable when she was accompanying him on his jobs; he knew she had his back. She wasn't a fighter, but she was one hell of good gunner and amazingly huge knowledge about those. Though sometimes he wondered what someone like her who hated violence was doing there. What it took to put that cold expression on her face and kill someone with cold blood.

Everyone here had a story, she did too though no one knew it. Well almost no one.
