Chapter 1: A different life

"Are you sure that you have to go? I mean you're already a R.L.F.A. agent so why the need to go to college?" A young man playfully asked his girlfriend as he slowly walked towards her until the stopped against the wall of their bedroom. Hoping to change her mind he began kissing her neck making her giggle which made it difficult for her to speak.

"You know that I'd love to but I have a class in two hours and you have to go to work, Mr Anthony Rosche." She replied in a pretend stern voice only making Anthony want his girlfriend even more as he heard her sweet giggle.

Anthony was a twenty-four year old Russian/Italian with the height of 6ft 2, mocha skin sculptured into an extremely well built body, short chocolate brown hair and beautiful emerald green eyes just like his girlfriend's.

"We don't have to go to our boring and tedious responsibilities. Run away with me, my dearest Nikki and we can live happily ever after." Anthony whispered to the ear of Nikki Python who was once known as Cindy Vortex.

"You don't know how tempting that sounds but you know I like going to college." Nikki replied.

"I never really understood why you just didn't go to the R.L.F.A. college." Anthony said.

"Well being an agent means that you really don't get a normal life. I just want to experience what's it like before I become a full time agent. Even if it's for only a little while I still want to experience the taste of normality, seeing's though I've been an agent for most of my childhood..." Nikki thoughtfully said while thinking about the truth of her words. Seeing that this was saddening her, Anthony changed the subject.

"Oh alright you can go to college but I don't think I'll be able to last that long without your kisses." Anthony dramatically said then pouted.

"Oh really? How much?" Nikki playfully asked.

"Ohh I want toooo make looove to youuu. So leeett's get perrrrsonaalll. Leeett me beee your faaaanntasssyy. You're allll I neeeed ohh girrll." Anthony softly sung which made Nikki melt at the sound deep & soothing voice, Anthony knew that Nikki always seemed to melt when he sung Craig David's 'Personal' and today was no different.

"Don't sing that! You know that every time I hear that song coming from you, I just have to abandon everything just to be you!" Nikki whined out.

"I know. That's why I do it." Anthony said slyly.

"Well you know what, today it isn't going to work so ha!"

"Oh no I must be losing my touch!"

"Oh don't look so shocked, it was bound to happen sooner or later."

"That's not fair! Oh how cruel life can be!" Anthony dramatically declared to the ceiling making him hear Nikki's sweet giggle again.

"You're an idiot do you know that?" Nikki playfully asked.

"Yes but I'm your idiot."

"Ah yes that's true and no one can ever have you except for me." Nikki said in a playful/serious tone as she wrapped her arms around Anthony's neck.

"I can live with that." Anthony softly said and placed a kiss onto Nikki's lips but they were shortly interrupted by the alarm from Nikki's mobile.

"Looks like I should get changed." Nikki said.

"How about we have breakfast first?" Anthony asked.

"You'd freeze time itself if that meant you could stare at me in my pjs all day!" Nikki said referring to the white singlet & a white pair boylegs that she always wore when she slept.

"Wouldn't you freeze time if you could stare at me in my pjs as well?" Anthony asked.

"I guess I would considering you only wear a silky pair of emerald green boxers that I got for you for your birthday!"

"See it's hard for someone to resist their lover when their wearing a small amount of clothing!"

"Hmm you're right. We should do something about that!"

"Yes we should. Starting with breakfast."

"Sounds good to me. Assuming you're cooking, right?" Nikki asked hoping she wouldn't have to be the one to cook considering she made breakfast yesterday.

"Of course I will, you're my girl. It wouldn't be right to make you slave away in the kitchen when you've got a class to attend to." Anthony said smiling and placed a kiss on Nikki's forehead.

"Thanks. I'll have a shower and get dressed."

"Alright then. I'll get breakfast ready."

Nikki smiled one more time at Anthony and left for the bathroom. The hot shower refreshened Nikki making her smile but it died with a frown as she looked at her damp chocolate brown hair while fiddling with the golden heart shaped locket around her neck.

Nikki had to take a deep breath to prevent tears falling down her cheeks like they once when she was eighteen...

Three years ago...

'Mmm where am I?' A young girl was thinking as she was beginning to wake up.

"Hmm you know even though I hate this bitch, I have to admit she's pretty hot!" An arrogant man said making the girl realise that the guy was standing above her.

'Oh god, he's gonna do something to me! SOMEONE HELP ME!' The girl screamed in her mind but she couldn't move a muscle.

"I'm warning you, Lou. Don't try anything on this girl, you know she's tough." Another man had said to his friend.

"Ha like that's going to help her. Look at her, Jack. She's completely comatose!" Lou had replied to Jack before returning his attention to the girl.

The girl tried her best to move any part of her body but it was useless until a volt of energy had pulsed through her body making the girl open her eyes. She was disgusted to see that Lou's eyes closed with his lips puckered up to kiss the girl but she wasn't going to take any of that.

She grabbed his throat making Lou gasp out from both his oxygen being cut and the shock of seeing the woman underneath who possessed so much strength. With all the power the girl could possess, she pushed him off her making him hit the hard wall of dirt and made the girl realise that she was in a coffin as she stood up to look around her surroundings.

"Argh shit that hurt!" Lou grunted out while rubbing his head and was rewarded with a laugh from Jack.

"Served you right for being such a jackass! I mean trying to take advantage of a comatose assassin is not the way to go!" Jack told his friend which made the girl widen her eyes as she had finally managed to get out of the hole she was in.

"I'm an assassin?" She asked raising an eyebrow at the new info making Jack realise what he had just said in front of the girl.

"Well in honest truth, you're an special agent but you're considered as an assassin." Jack informed the girl making her finally be able to identify Jack.

Jack appeared to be in his early thirties with the height of 6ft 1, a well built body, short sandy-blonde hair, steel blue eyes. He appeared to be clean and intelligent making the girl realise that this man was a gentleman but was serious when necessary.

"And a tough one at that!" Lou had said making the girl turn around to see her would've-been-attacker and was surprised at his appearance.

He looked to be the same age as Jack with the height of 6ft 2 & a reasonably toned body, lighty tanned skin, his dirty blonde hair wasn't long but it was definitely messy and sapphire-blue eyes which disappointed the girl to see that such an attractive man was a real ass hole.

"What the fuck was in your mind when you were about to attack me, you fucking ass hole!" The girl yelled out to Lou making him flinch.

"Hey it wasn't like I was going to fuck you or anything!" Lou yelled back.

"Bull shit! If I hadn't been able to wake up you would be all over me right now!" The girl said shivering at the thought.

"Like you wouldn't-"

"ENOUGH LOU!" Jack shouted making them both flinch at the volume of Jack's voice but his voice turned back to normal as he turned to the girl. "I apologise for my friend's action Miss Python."

"Is that my last name?"

"Oh how rude of me! I completely forgot that you probably can't remember anything! My name is Jack Cobra but my code name is Black-poison and as you already know this is my friend Lou Anaconda and his code name is Death's shadow. Your name is Nicole Python but people just call you Nikki and your code name is Black deed."

"How come all of our last names are of snakes?" The girl now known as Nikki asked.

"That's our mascot for the R.L.F.A., which is the agency you & I work for." Jack answered to Nikki.

Nikki gave him an unsure look which soon disappeared as a voice spoke whispered in the back of her mind. 'He's telling the truth. We do work for an agency named the R.L.F.A. and we're all special agents there. We're fighting for peace & to give hope for poor countries, we want to make the world a better place.'

The voice gave Nikki comfort and she decided to believe Jack making him smile when Nikki's graced her lips. He held out his hand to lead her to the black van that would take her away from this graveyard that she was here for god knows how long & for reasons she couldn't imagine, she took a deep breath and gave Jack her hand.

With that he gave another smile and lead her to a life she couldn't possibly imagine but maybe it was for the best.

End of flashback.

Another memory was about to play in Nikki's mind but she shook it off and dressed into a sky-blue long-sleeved top, faded jeans, light-blue sneakers with a light amount of make-up such mascara, grey eyeliner & clear lip gloss and with her hair down Nikki left the bathroom to have breakfast with Anthony, her fiancee of three years.

End of Chapter 1.

AN: First chapter and already it's getting interesting! Now don't forget that Nikki is actually Cindy but she doesn't know who she is and has brown hair for reasons that will be answered later on in the story. But I wonder how the gang will react when they find out that Cindy is still alive and engaged to the son of their deceased enemy, Peter Rosche!

Only I know and it's up to you to find out so please R&R when you can and tell me what you think about this chapter because it's always a bit hard to start up a first chapter of a new story. Hope to hear from you all soon, Water-Star.
