Well enjoy
Shades of a Shadowed Myth
Chapter 1
He looked up from his book as the pilot spoke through the loudspeaker.
"Ladies and Gentleman we have just landed, thank you for flying Warpstar Airlines" and with that everyone began to leave the plane.
He waited for the plane to be mostly empty before he got out of his seat. He tucked the book he was reading into his coat and pulled his hood up all the way. He pulled his backpack out of the overhead compartment and descended the stairs. He walked through security without to much issue. He found a nice seat that overlooked as much of the big city as possible. This was truly way bigger then he was used to. He took his seat and pulled his book out, he was sure she would find him.
He looked out the huge window in amusement. Then something out of the corner of his eye caught his attention. A young man clung to the side of plane's wing. He appeared to be hanging on for dear life.
He put his book away, that guy needed help. Just as he stood he turned to see nothing.
"Robin?" a peppy voice caught his attention. He turned around to be met face to face with his twin sister. She had dyed her hair pink again, she had big sparkling hazel eyes that resembled jars of glitter at times. Today she was sporting her favored white coat, it was like his, except it was white and his was black.
She bounced happily "oh my baby brother is coming to live in the big city with me"
"Raven we're twins, stop" he was already agitated with the baby coment and was already regretting this decision. He had just moved here from Yelisse and he was already wishing he could go back. He loved his sister don't get him wrong but at times she was a little too … overbearing.
"I'm so glad that the office accepted you," she grabbed his arm "come on let's go , the boss can't wait to meet you" she dragged him off. He turned to give one last glance at the plane but still nothing out of the ordinary.
He pressed his back against the wall of the, his target didn't know he was here, this would make his job so much easier. He waited and listened, he closed his eyes and focused as his target was talking to someone, this could be vital information.
"So do you have it or not"
"I do but ..." he was cut off
"If you have what i need then the price will not be an issue, just give me what was promised"
The other man pulled out a suitcase and handed it to the other man.
Every part of his body was begging him to jump out and put a stop to this illegal activity but they needed this to continue, if just for a little longer.
"N.O.V.A. appreciates your assistance" the buyer said as he handed the other a suitcase full of what he knew would be money.
"Pleasure doing business with ya" the other seller left the cargo hold and the target was left alone.
Slowly he lifted his handgun and pulled the trigger. The silencer went off alerting no one of what just happened.
The spy took quick soundless steps towards the unconscious man. He knelt down beside the man and opened the suitcase. He then put a hand to his earpiece
"Lady, it's Hero" he said as he took quick pictures of the suitcase's contents.
"And Master Hand was right, N.O.V.A. is up to something" he turned the man upright and looked him over "i don't know this guy but i'm sure he might be in the data somewaire. As for the contents i'm sending you pics right now"
"Good, now get out of there before someone sees you" the woman on the other side of the line said
"I'm on it" he turned to look at the man and quickly pulled out his grappling gun, he smiled to himself and ran off
He darted down the street as fast as he could. He watched the pedestrian signal and waited for it to turn green, he was going to be late if this damn light didn't hurry up. Once it did he darted off the sidewalk in hopes of getting to the other side before …
In one fowl swoop a car suddenly darted out from around the corner and paid no mind to the young man running down the street.
Crash!
He rolled off the front of the car and groaned as he hit the pavement
The driver got out of the car "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!"
He groaned and took a quick picture of the license plate and got off the ground
He said nothing but just bowed his head in apology and ran off
Suddenly he burst through the front doors of a local coffee shop, as the redhead behind the counter turned to him "Dude, you look like hell, you alright?"
"Just got hit by another car on my way here" he said as he walked behind the counter and put on the apron he was required to wear, he washed up and took his stop beside his friend at the counter.
"Did they see you?"
"Meh i don't care, i mean they didn't break anything so i good" he smiled as he started with the group of orders that were pinned to the black bord.
"Did you at least get the plate number?" he friend asked as he handed a customer their coffee
"Yeah"
"Your luck they never run you over just hit you" the redhead said as he started work on other order
"If i was luck i wouldn't get hit by a car at all" he groaned
"You don't have to rush here every day your know" the redhead smiled knowing well that his friend always runs here
"I wish it was that easy" he groaned as he handed over another order
"Jimmy, you're lucky, with fool's luck but you're lucky" the redhead smiled at the drunet
"Thank's Roy" he sighed knowing the redhead wouldn't let it go until he smiled "i just wish i wasn't .. so luck"
"We all want things" Roy laughed
"That's true" he smiled and continued working hoping that the rest of the day would go better for him
Well there you go
I know i know it's been forever since i uploaded anything for Secret Self or Among Riches and Royals but i will … hopefully
The thing with those two is I've … lost contact with my old beta reader, both stories are complete just not legible, so i'll take it upon myself to try and correct it but no promises
But this story is all on my own. Meaning, it's bad but it'll be posted
Here's to the next chapter
Please don't forget to read and review
