Kay-Kay. So, I was like watching The Losers with my mom, and I came up with the idea for this story. I honestly don't know why I keep starting new stories lol I just see things and get awesome ideas. There's a few things you should know before you start reading.
Here's the low down: this story will
Have multiple parings, mostly a lil Bade and a Jori friendship.
Have a bunch of action and other awesome chiz. So hold on to your brains cause their gonna get blown.
Might get changed to M. My friend's been dying to 'help' me write an M story so idk yet lol.
Plus, like in Mirror, Mirror, everyone's personalities are a wee bit different. (with the exception of Jade of course, lol) Their going to be almost secret agents, but more like trained assassins. They have code names and everything. Here's the basics:
Cat "Little Red" Valentine: Excellent rifle shooter, extremely accurate aim in far distance shooting. Okay in hand to hand combat. Flaws: Can get distracted easily at times.
Jade "Jaybird" West: Excellent with hand to hand combat, good with hand guns, rifles, and heavy artillery. Flaws: Is somewhat a masochist. Doesn't know when to stop. Extremely hot headed. Does not think straight when mad. Fights with Tori. A LOT.
Beck "Captain" Oliver: Leader, good with every fighting style there is. Especially in jujitsu. Good tactical planner. Flaws: His love for women gets in the way of his focus.
Andre "Dr. Dre" Harris: Can use almost anything around him as a weapon. Not very good at hand to hand combat. Good with hand guns and heavy artillery. Flaws: None so far.
Robbie "Puppet Master" Shapiro: Technical support and mechanic for the group. Can fix guns and hack computers. Terrible at hand to hand combat. Extremely good with rifles and any other gun. Flaws: Not very light in his feet….
Tori "Columbiana" Vega: Very good with hand to hand combat and any gun. Is being trained by Jade. Only other person in the group who specializes in jujitsu. The newbie. Jade dislikes her very much. Flaws: Just as hot headed as Jade. Fights with her. A LOT.
Did you read that? If you did, then good you deserve a cookie. If you didn't, then you won't understand anyone's personalities and you'll be confused. Not my fault you're lazy. Anyway, I'm rambling on. I should start the story now.
Enjoy! :D - Ronnie
Tori Vega hung loosely and tentatively 20 feet in the air off the side of an LA office building. She contemplated what her next move would be. She flinched, almost hearing Jade barking in her ear; Get a move on Vega! Hurry up! We don't have time to waste on you second thinking everything! And then Jade would sock her right in the jaw. She rubbed the side of her mouth out of memory.
She hated the fact that Beck had chosen Jade to be her trainer. The paler girl seemed to enjoy working Tori to the bone, making her run laps if she talked back or complained. Tori's legs burned with ache the first few weeks of training. But this is what she wanted to do right?
Wrong. She didn't want to take part in any of this, let alone train for it. But it had been her fault for being nosy. For trying to see what her group of friends were doing without her. But she had a right to know right? Why else would she try to find out? Then again, there's a reason why some things are better left hidden…..
2 Months Earlier…..
"Hey guys!" Tori greeted, sitting down at her usual table with Cat, Andre, Robbie, Beck and Jade. "Yeah, hey." Jade growled, stabbing murderously at the salad in front of her. "Why are you all crabby?" Tori asked watching the other girl slaughter her lunch in concern and fear. "Jade failed a miss-" Cat started but was quickly shut up by the death glare though narrowed eyes sent her way by non other then said Jade. "She lost something." Cat corrected herself vaguely, almost squeaking the sentence out. "Okay…" Tori drawled. "For the past couple of months, you guys have been avoiding me on some days and not talking to me at all on others. Anyone wanna tell me what's really going on?"
Beck picked at the cheese on his pizza, Andre pretended to be listening to music, and Robbie tried to look busy fixing Rex's outfit.
The Latina sighed. "Why does it feel like you guys are trying to hide something from me?" Cat's head shot up, and looked to Jade for help. Jade motioned for her to relax. Beck saw and in a stern tone warned, "Jade…" The girl ignored him. "No, no, it's ok," She said smiling distressingly. "If she wants to know, we should tell her." Tori straightened up at the idea of Jade agreeing with her. That was a rare occurrence, and it almost never happened. There had to be a sinister reason behind it.
"Meet me at Beck's RV at seven." She commanded Tori. "Alone." She added, emphasizing the word knowing that Tori's irritating sister would want to tag along. The brunette nodded, intending on obeying the command. She already found Jade's kindness creepy and disturbing. She didn't want to find out what would happen if she made her angry.
Tori watched as Jade looked around the table to see if anyone objected. No one did. She then smiled smugly as the bell for their next class rang. This could end badly, or incredibly worse.
Later….
At six fifty six Tori stepped out her new red and black Camaro in front of Beck's house and started walking towards his RV. She had spent the last 15 minutes contemplating whether to go and meet her friends or not. She had gotten there early, and she spent most of the time battling with herself. She did say she wanted to find out what they were doing. So why did she feel so scared? Oh yeah, that's right, Jade's the one she's meeting, not everyone else. She picked at a snag in her black skinny jeans as she tapped on the door to the vehicle. It swung open, and Jade stepped out.
"Are you alone?" was the first thing she asked. No hi, no hello. Just 'Are you alone?' "Yes…" Tori trailed. She didn't like where this was going. She thought they were going to talk inside Beck's RV. Not out here.
"That your ride?" the darker haired girl asked nodding towards the car, and snapping Tori back. "Uh, yeah." She replied. "I finally passed my driving test." Jade snorted. "Bout time. I was wondering if I was going to be driving you around again."
Tori involuntarily shuddered at the memory of Jade driving her to school. "What is it that you wanted to talk to me about?" she asked, her grip tightening on the keys in her hand; as if the minute Jade said the wrong thing she would jump in her car and bolt. "I was thinking we could go somewhere, you know, a little more private?" Jade suggested grinning.
She strutted towards the car, with Tori dumbfounded, following behind. They got in the car and Tori started to drive. "Anywhere in particular?" she asked, staring straight ahead. "Just keep going till I tell you to stop." Jade explicated, looking out the window.
When they got to an abandoned loft, Jade told Tori to stop. "What are we doing here?" She asked looking around her sketchy surroundings. "You'll see." The paler girl answered her, pulling back a huge door. She pushed Tori in, and then shut it behind herself.
"Beck!" Jade called.
No answer.
"Jade… I have a bad feeling about this.." Tori whined.
"Shut it Vega. They're just playing a joke on us." She responded, and then called, "Beck! Cat! Andre! Robbie!"
Still, no answer.
"I'm freaking out now!" Tori said, almost hyperventilating. "I SAID SHUT UP!" Jade screeched. A man maybe in his 20's stepped out from the shadows. Jade examined him, and realized where he was from.
"Shit." She breathed. "What?" Tori asked. "Tori! Stay behind me!" Jade barked. "What?" the tan girl repeated, panic taking over.
Jade had her hand in her pocket and Tori couldn't see what she had in it. She found out soon enough when the taller girl pulled out a GP 35. "Whoa! What is that?" Tori jumped pointing a finger at the weapon. "It's a gun, idiot!" Jade scoffed handing it to Tori.
Tori fumbled with it, almost dropping it. "What do you want me to do with this?" she asked, holding the weapon out in front of her. "What do you think I want you to do? Shoot it!"
The boom of Jade's voice jolted Tori and she wildly fired a shot. The man in front of them fell to the ground. "Hmm. Good shot." Jade commented. "Now come on! We gotta get to the others!" she grabbed Tori's hand and pulled her behind a storage container. She reloaded Tori's gun, and pulled a glock out her bag and loaded that.
"How many guns do you have?" Tori asked suddenly thinking that scissors weren't the only thing her friend collects. "Just these two and a couple more at Head Quarters." "Head Quarters?" Tori asked, confused. Jade sighed and handed Tori the gun back.
"Just follow my lead, and we'll make it out alive. I'll explain everything later." She said in a calming voice that did nothing but scare Tori. The Latina just nodded, and listened to Jade's every word. They shot their way through the huge place, and finally made it back to Tori's car.
Jade pushed Tori in the passenger's seat wrenching the keys from her hand; jamming them in the ignition. "Uh, what do you think you're doing?" Tori yelled. "You wanna drive and die? Or do you want me to save your ass and let you live to see another day?" Tori didn't answer as Jade peeled off down the street.
As she expected, two black Jeeps were barreling towards them. "Shit," she spat, pressing hard on the gas. They were doing ninety already. She drifted around a corner, and then pulled out an ear piece. She put it on and then said, "Captain, this is Jaybird. We've got a situation. I'm heading towards you. We are being perused. Have Puppet Master and Little Red handle this please?"
There was a moment of silence and then a man's voice broke through. "Alright, ill have them handle it. Wait, we?" Tori came to realize the voice was Beck's. "Yeah, Vega's with me. We kinda ran into some T troopers." Jade explained, glancing over at Tori.
Beck breathed heavily as if he wanted to yell but instead said, "Puppet Master and Little Red have a lock on your location. Keep moving, and you'll lead them right to them."
Jade took off the ear piece and flung it in the back seat. "Why did you call Beck Captain?" Tori asked. Jade pinched the bridge of her nose. "I told you I'll explain everything later!" she snapped. Tori retreated into the seat, deciding to wait to ask any further questions.
A gunshot zoomed past them, and hit a man in the truck behind them square in the face. "What was that?" Tori asked, forgetting not to ask questions. Jade stepped harder on the gas and grinned as they picked up speed. "Back up has arrived."
There was a thud on the roof and a girl with red hair and had a rifle strapped to her back stuck her face through the window. "Hi Jade! Hi Tori!"
"Cat?" Tori asked cocking her head. The redhead rolled her eyes. "Well, yeah! Who else would it be?" "But- But- You're Little Red?" the disbelief dripping into Tori's voice. The smaller girl adjusted her fingerless gloves. "You better believe it!" "Then that means-"
Another thud.
"Robbie?" Tori guessed. The boy stuck his head in the window, "Hey Tori!" he greeted. "You're Puppet Master?"
"Well, yeah!" he answered smiling proudly. Jade rolled her eyes. "Sorry to break up this little reunion, but we are getting chased here." "Of course." Robbie said, leaning back on the roof. Cat giggled. "See you in a bit, guys!" Tori heard them position themselves on the roof and then gun shots. Jade watched in the rear view mirror as the car behind them swerved, and crashed into another car, sending the remaining surviving crew flying.
"Score!" She heard Cat cheer above her. A few more shots, and two more trucks disappeared from view. The last one turned around and retreated. "Alright!" Cat said hive fiving Robbie. "Yes!"
Jade pulled into an unmarked building, and went into the parking garage. She parked the car, and told Tori to get out as Cat and Robbie jumped off the roof still holding their rifles.
"You know Beck's gonna give you hell for what you did right?" Cat asked Jade as they took the elevator down to the basement. "Yeah, but I'm sure that's nothing I can't fix." She grinned a little.
They reached at what at first looked like a lab but really a full facility. They passed the training room, the shooting range, the kitchen, and the game room before they got to the command center. Beck was sitting in a big office chair, and Andre was looking up things on the holographic computer.
When they entered, well, made their presence known thanks to Cat who yelled, "We're back and we kicked some ass!" Beck swiveled around to see all of them. Jade was looking everywhere but his face, because she knew she was about to get it.
"Jade, come here." He commanded. "Yes, sir." She answered stepping in front of him. Tori cocked her head. Yes sir? Since when was Jade ever respectful? "You were told to bring her here." He scolded her sternly. Jade's face softened, and her mean girl attire returned. "Well shit, I thought you guys were at the loft." Andre jumped in. "Yeah we were, but we came here since it was overrun with T troopers."
"You could have warned us about that." Jade spat rolling her eyes. Andre shrugged. "You should have contacted us first." Beck nodded. "So what are we going to do about Tori?" he asked. Tori's head shot up at the mention of her name.
"I mean we could train her. I don't think it'll be easy though. She's such a puss." Jade sneered.
"Hey!" Tori piped.
Cat nodded. "I like that idea."
Robbie seconded her. "Me too."
Andre grinned. "I don't see why not."
Beck smiled reassuringly at Tori. "Then it's settled. Tori you are now a part of Assassin Five. Well, six now." He added, glaring at Jade. The dark haired girl rolled her eyes.
"She needs a code name!" Cat piped.
"Oh yeah! A really awesome one!" Robbie gushed.
Tori thought for a moment. " How about… Columbiana?"
Jade's eyebrows raised. "Why Columbiana?"
"Well cause she was a bad ass killer in the movie and I'm Spanish like her so I just thought it would fit me." The tan girl explained, shrugging.
"I guess that's you're code name then." Andre said, grinning.
"Now that we've got that covered," Cat interjected, "Who's gonna train her?" she jabbed a finger in Tori's direction.
Beck thought for a moment. "What are your strong points Tori?" he asked. "I don't know. I've never tried to kill anyone before." She answered.
"Let's take her to the shooting range!" Cat exclaimed giddily. Beck shrugged. If they were gonna find out what she was good at, shooting might be the best thing to find out first.
They all walked out to the range. Tori pulled out the gun Jade had given her and pointed it towards a target about 20 feet in front of her. "Baby steps, Tori. I don't think you can-"
Before Beck could finish, Tori shot the bullet, and everyone watched as it landed dead straight in the middle of the target. "Holy shit!" Robbie blurted. "I haven't seen aim like that since Cat joined!"
Tori smiled smugly, and Jade rolled her eyes. "Lucky shot. Let's see if you can hit the 60 yard mark like that." Tori lined the gun with the target, breathed slowly, and then fired the shot.
Bulls eye.
"Whoa Tori! That's amazing!" Cat gushed. Tori shrugged. "Probably runs in the blood. My dad's a cop, you know." Andre tossed her a rifle. "Try the 80 yard mark with this." He suggested. She shut one eye, lined up the gun with the target, breathed slowly and,
Pow.
"That's fucking unbelievable! Dead center! Again! Guns are definitely your strong point! You should train with us!" Cat practically yelled.
"Wait, we know she can shoot guns, but can she fight?" Jade asked grinning. Tori gulped. This wasn't going to be good.
15 minutes later….
"Ow!" Tori hissed as Andre put alcohol on the cut on her face. "You should have never picked Jade to spar with! She's like the MMA fighter of assassins!" Cat scolded her. "I thought I could take her." Tori mumbled nursing her aching jaw.
"What in your right mind convinced you that you could take on Jade? Of all people?" Cat yelled throwing her hands up in the air. "She practically kicked your ass! And then handed it to you!"
"Yeah, thanks for the moral support, Cat." Tori grumbled. Beck walked into the locker room. "Are you ok?" he asked, looking Tori over. "Yeah," she sighed, adjusting the ice pack on her head. "Nothing a little Tylenol can't fix."
"I would've told her to go easy on you if I had known she was going to wail on you like that." He said apologetically. Jade stood in the door way chuckling with a water bottle in her hand. "You should have covered your face." She giggled. Beck glared at her. "How would she know that? She has no training!"
"It's common sense! Who wouldn't cover their face in a fight?" she retorted, annoyed. "You idiots need to teach her these things!" Beck smiled knowingly. "Oh yes, we should. But we won't." Jade cocked her head. "What do you mean?"
"You will."
"What?"
"You heard me!"
"WHAT?"
"I'm sorry, are you refusing to obey your captain's order?"
Jade's face turned into a scowl. "No, sir."
Cat and Andre snickered.
Jade glared at them.
"Then its settled." Beck said grinning. "Tori, you will be trained by Jade, and she'll guide you on missions."
"I will not!" the pale girl interjected.
"Yes, you will, or you will be punished."
Jade didn't respond. Instead, she turned to her new battered student, with a sinister grin on her face. "Well, you heard the man. Get up and put your head gear on. I'm teaching you how to fight."
And thus, the newest member of the group was born. Tori excelled at gun training with Cat and Robbie, and combat training with Jade.
Now, here she was, dangling 20 feet in the air with Jade below her, carrying out her first mission. What the hell did she get herself into?
A/N: Sooo whatcha guys think? Should I continue it? Is it good? Tell me, people! I need to know so I can get to writing! :D Review it man! Peace!
