Assassins Chapter 1
"You really couldn't find a place that looks nicer than this one, Daniel?" The slim, tall woman examined the warehouse that her partner had chosen to be their headquarters. It was old and molded. There wasn't much furniture. Only a table, a couch and a few chairs stood in the middle of the room.
"Are you serious, Joss? That is the only thing that bothers you?" Daniel rolled his ice blue eyes and sat down. Annoyed he glanced at his watch. Of course Finn was too late again.It seemed like Joss didn't care about it really much. She strolled through the hall and looked around; disgust was written all over her face. Spiderwebs and mold decorated the walls.
"Could you please sit down?" Daniel's voice sounded irritated. He would have loved to tear his black hair out, but he had to pull himself together. When Joss was around him something deep inside him longed to kill someone. She was always full of high spirits and childish, it annoyed him. Her clothing didn't fit her age. The short pink skirt and white top made her look like a barbie doll and her red dyed hair let her green eyes shine but it was definitely not normal for a woman in her mid thirties. Slowly Joss came to Daniel and lay down on the couch, left her legs dangling of the edge. "Where is Finn?", she let out a sigh and right on time the door opened and a tall, muscular man with short brown hair entered the warehouse.
"Speaking of the devil.", Daniel said and his brown haired partner lifted one eyebrow and closed the door behind him.
"Come on, Daniel. I'm not that bad." Finn sat down on the chair next to Daniel and gave him a questioning look. "So, what do you want?"
"He has a job for us." Joss smiled exited and lifted herself up to sit in a cross-legged position. She loved to work with Daniel and Finn. They were a great team, no job had ever failed. She really wanted to know who they had to kill this time.
"I'm sure you've heard about the three professors who helped the FBI in the last two years, right?", Daniel started and threw a file on the table. A photograph fell out of it. Joss took it and looked at it while Daniel continued explaining: "Well... The last man who went to jail because of them is not as merciful as the others."
Finn stole the picture from Joss and looked at it for a moment before he faced Daniel again. "Which means that we shall take care of them.", he concluded and Daniel nodded. "It wouldn't be a hard task, but the FBI is always near.", he explained.
"But you have more information than this photograph, right?", Finn asked and lay the picture back on the table. His partner nodded. He took the file and started to talk about the targets.
"The man on the left is Charles Eppes, math professor. I guess he's our biggest problem, because his brother is an agent. But he is the main target since he is the one who helps the most. The other two are secondary."
Sighing Finn rubbed his forehead. It sounded really hard. A man who was always watched by the FBI? They never had had a case like that before. "The woman next to him is Amita Ramanujan. It looks like the two are not a pair yet, but they do have feelings for each other.", Daniel continued and Finn seemed interested. "Unfortunately the two of them won't have a future.", he answered with a faked pity in his voice.
"True. We'll take care of that never happening. The other man is Dr. Larry Fleinhardt. He is physicist and Eppes' best friend. I think he is the one who we don't need to worry about much.", Daniel finished and Joss looked at the photo again, smiled interested.
"Alright. So... what's your plan?", Finn asked and ignored Joss. Daniel shrugged. "We all pick one person and take care of it. We'll do what we do best."
Finn tilted his head in confusion.
"But... didn't you say that it's hard when the FBI is always near them?"
Daniel smirked before he answered: "Nothing is too hard for us, did you forget that?" Finn had to grin too. "You're right about that."
"He's cute. Somehow." Daniel and Finn gazed at Joss who still looked at the photograph, humming. She lay on her back and let her legs dangle again.
"Yeah, Eppes is really popular around the campus.", Daniel said and Joss shortly glanced at him, rolled her eyes and then focused on the photo. "I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about this... Larry."
Daniel and Finn exchanged a confused look, then shook their heads. To each his own, they supposed. This rule seemed to be made for Joss. "Don't worry. I'll take care of him.", she chuckled dreaming. The other two didn't really care. Just one decision left.
"I'll take the girl. I'm sure that she will soon need help with her car."
It was Finn's trick. He manipulated cars, then presented himself as mechanic and repaired them. That way he gained the trust of his victims.
"Then I will take Professor Eppes, I guess." Daniel looked from one partner to the other. Soon the FBI wouldn't get help anymore. They would stop it.
