A/N: Originaly, this was supposet to be a smut/one-shot. But I kinda got carried away and ended up with a smut fic with a plot. And this chapter doesn't have any action between the pairing...yet. Maybe next chapter would, I don't know. How much do you wanna beg? Lol. Anyways, I promise that next chap. would be longer than this and...if the mood serves me right, I'll get some Shiznat in it?
The Assassin's Temptation
Chapter 1 The Death Of The CEO
It was dark out, the moon was glowing the sky was clear of any clouds. The lights of the big city was radiating the streets and the best part about it was...there was barely any people out tonight. It is monday, alot of people have work to do, people to see, places to go. And a family to take care of, this was a night where people don't have time to indulge in nightly activeties.
Well, for normal people that is. It was a night to do nothing, be at home and relax. But that didn't really matter now, she's here already for work. You may ask yourselves, who would work at such a late time in the night? This woman aparently. What is her work, you ask? Here is a brief dicreption.
Her office: any rooftop with a great view.
Her clients: various and anonymous.
Her boss: they said that information was classfied and restricted, but she didn't mind.
Her goal: Kill the target at all cost.
Her rule: never miss.
Her occupation: Elite Assassin
So avoiding the job would be pointless and she had nothing else to do. Just pray that it wont be too boring.
Static filled the silent night.
"Is the target on sight?...*static*"
A figure was taking refuge on a rooftop of a tall building. The figure could only be described as the silhouette of a woman, her long chestnut hair was flowing along with the cold breeze of the night, "Yes." was the reply, her voice was thick with Kyoto-ben, "Permition to shoot?" she asked politely but strongly.
She was standing tall, she was dressed in a black, tight fitting leather suit. She was holding up some binoculars over her eyes, watching said target that was at the opposite side of the one she was standing on. An office man, who was currently sitting behind a big desk. The window tookk half the wall, making him an easy target for her.
He has been promoted to CEO of the company, he was very happy by the looks of it. He was now one of the big boys, he was one of the top boss's. Really, a big office, a raise, a new cute secretary, and he was on top of the world!
"Permition granted..."
With that answer, she took the binaculors away from her face, revealing crimson eyes that were now shinning dangerously. She palced her gloved hand over her left ear, removing the ear pice she was currently using for comunacation. She reached for the sniper rifle that hunged over her shoulder, she examined the weapon for any deffects or errors. Which was impossible, since she was the one who assembled and armed it herself. The thought of her making such a simple and amature mistake made her smirk in the dark. She took a step closer to the edge of the rooftop, getting in a position to aim her target. She spied through the sniper scope, and sighed, "What a disappointment." she said, "And here I hoped for this to be fun." she sighed again dejectedly as she watched the new CEO put his feet up on top of the desk, getting himself comfortable. This was such a simple kill. It annoyed her a bit that THEY would waste an elite such as herself on a man who was foolish enough to steal money from the goverment. She shook her head slightly in disapproval, a foolish man indeed. Who in their right mind would steal from the goverment, and think that they wouldn't get caught? Such a stupid man, it was sad really. How people die and get themselves killed over stupidity such as this.
But as much as this was a "tear jerker", this was still boring like hell. Out of all the assassins they have in at their dissposel, why did it have to be her? They could have sent someone else...
She shrugged and steadied her aim, her finger was now firmly placed over the triger, "Kanin na." Of course saying sorry was pointless, but after so many kills, she had grown use to say sorry just before she killed someone. A shot to his head would be good, she smiled a little. 'Let's be original today, a shot to his jogular would kill him perfectly.' she thought to herself.
She slowly squeezes the triger...but...
She stopped. Someone entered the office, it seemed to be the secretary, she assumed. The CEO smiled brightly at her, she could see his lips moving. He was conversting with her. The assassin sighed in frustration, she wanted to end this quickly and go home to drink tea. What was the secretary doing there at 1:00 in the morning? She found herself thinking, she looked through the sniper scope. She couldn't see the secretary's face, since she had her back on her. Talking to her boss. All she could make out from her was her long midnight hair, very beautiful hair she mused.
But it was strange, the secretary had a very strong looking back. Proud even. Her keen assassin insticnt tells her that she exercises often, and by the way she was standing she had her arms crossed under chest. Giving her the idea thta she was annoyed for some reason. The CEO was still happily talking to her without a care in the world. He was eyeing her slowly from to top to bottom, she didn't need her assassin's instinct to tell her that he was interested in her. And it was clear that the secretary knows that, but was still annoyed. She soon found herself doing the same thing, from her raven hair, strong looking shoulders, her lower back, and finaly, her butt. 'A cute butt actually, hmm...' she shook her thoughts away, what was wrong with her? Was she that bored that she was checking a soon-to-be-dead-man's secretary out? How silly, she thought with an amused smile. But she had to admitt, the woman looked very attractive from the back. She was curious at what she would look like from the front.
He was still talking, she was getting impatient. Not just her apparently, she could see the secretary's foot tapping.
This was going to be a long night. She inwardly cursed.
Inside the office...
The new CEO was smilling from ear to ear, he couldn't believe his luck. His new cute, blazing hot secretary was in his office. He thought of it as fate and pressed his luck a bit more.
"So miss Natsumi..." he started, "Since your new to this company, and me, how about we go out sometime?" he asked, smugly in "Miss Natsumi" opinion. She had to hold back a groan of frustartion, really now, this was the worst idea she could have thought. But hey, it can't be helped. Besides, they told her it was a reckless plan. 'But its still an affective plan...' she smirked darkly.
The CEO didn't notice the change of expression, but he was a bit irked thta she didn't answer his invitation. "Look babe..." he said, her eyebrow twitched at the word 'babe', "I'll cut to the chase, you either go out with me, or I lower your weekly pay. Your choice."
Natsumi wanted to puke, this guy is an asshole. But she saw a chance, and she took it. But they weren't going out.
"As you wish boss." she replied without any emotion.
The CEO smiled in victory, he was sure lucky tonight. He looked over to the secretary and saw her turn off the light switch, they were both engulfed in darkness. He was confused at first, but then the confusion was soon replaced with emince pride and glory when he felt two slim arms rap around his neck. At first he thought that they were pretty strong for a good looking woman, he pushed that thought aside and leaned on his chair. He could feel the womans long soft hair brush his cheek. "I take it you don't want to go out?" he asked, with a smug tone. He was REAL lucky tonight.
"Why should you go out?" she asked, her voice was gruff, the tone in her voice made the man shiver for some reason, "Why would you go out?' she asked again, "Knowing that there are people out there. Bad people." was this chick paranoid? was his first thought. He felt her hold around his neck tighten, and before he knew it, she had his head in a strong choke hold. His eyes went wide with surprise. He tried to free himself, but she was stronger than him. He yelled and demanded to know what she was doing but she ignored him.
"Bad people who you owe lots of money to?" he raised an eyebrow in the dark, what was she talking about? The only people he would owe money too was...he froze for a moment.
He flinched, "Yakuza..."
She smirked, "Have a nice afterlife." she twisted his head with a loud crack. Snapping his neck without even trying, as if it was just a mere twig, killing him in an instant. She felt his body limp in her arms, she pushed him forward, landing his face on top of the desk. She sighed as se walked around it, and switched the lights back on. She looked back at the dead man, and then to her hands, her emerald eyes were filled with remorse and regrette. 'I hate killing people with my bare hands...' she thought, 'That is why a like guns better...' was her last thought when she walked out the door.
Back at the rooftop...
She was still cursing her luck, was he trying to ask her out or something? Really, reject him already so she can kill him. But that thought died when she saw the secretary walk towards the light switch, 'Ara...she can't be really thinking of...' she stopped tha thought when she saw the entire office room go black. 'Ara...this will be a VERY long night.' she felt a bit jealouse, a scum bag like him shouldn't have the pleasure having the cute butt secretary like this. He should have no one at all.
She sighed, a man could die happy she thought. But then curiosity got the best of her, she knew she had installed night vision on her sniper's scope. She pressed the small button on the side of her rifle, she was now seeing the office room in complete green. She was a bit surprised to see the raven haired secretary already looming around the man's shoulders, she still could not see her face. Her midnight hair was in the way. She was waitting for one of them to make a move, but she felt her eyes go wide in shock when she saw the man struggel in the woman's hold around his neck.
Her keen instinct kicked in again, she knew what that type of hold ment. She knew what was going to happen next. She inwardly flinched when she saw the effortless twist of the CEO's neck. She swore she heard the crack from here. She lowered her weapon from her crimson eye when she saw the secretary turn on the lights. She saw the way she looked at the now dead CEO, and to her hands.
When she saw an oppurtunity to see her face, she quickly looked through her sniper scope. Waitting to see the unknown killer's face, but was disappointed to see her strong back. She cursed under her breath when she saw her walk out the door.
What the hell just happened?
Did someone just kill off her target before she could?
Was she just out killed by a simple secretary?
No. She knew better, that was not a secretary. She knew she was more than that.
She flunged her rifle over her shoulder, ans placed he ear pice back in place.
"HQ, reporting back..." there was static for a moment, but was then replaced by an annoyed and slightly sly voice.
"What the hell do you want Fujino?"
She rolled her eyes at the voice, she knew who it was, "You know...it is not allowed to use our real names when we are in frquency, Yuuki." she said in a nutreul voice. "Where is the other agent that was briefing me on the target?" she asked/
"He took a coffe break..." Yuuki deadpanned, "Did you kill the target? I was a bit shocked that you took so long." she could hear her smirking.
"Don't tell me!" she gasped in mock shock, "The great, Fujino Shizuru, has failed her mission?" she was now cackling in Shizuru's ear piece.
"Actually..." she heard Yuuki stop laughing, "Yes and no." she opened a door that lead to a stair case.
"What is that supposet to mean?" She hear Shizuru sigh, which was a shock, she never does that. What the hell happen?
"The target is dead..." she trailed off.
"Then whats the problem, you killed the target." she said with an annoyed tone.
There was a pause.
"The target IS dead, right?" Yuuki asked, suddenly feeling a bit suspicious. "You killed him, right?"
"No, I did not." she walked down the stair case, her hand was holding the strap of her rifle, "Someone else did it."
"WHAT!" she yelled in Shizuru's ear piece, causing a loud shriek ring in her ear. "Fujino, are you sure?"
She winced quietly, "Yes, Im sure. I was there, I saw everything." she craddled her now ringing ear, "Please, do not yell again." Yuuki gave a weak sorry before she spoke again, "Who do think you was it?"
"I've been thinking..." she stopped and leaned on the stair's railling with her hip. "If I remember correctly, our target had dealings with various gang memeber's and other drug dealers..."
"You think it might be Yakuza?"
"Ara! Most likely, they seem to have a taste to send special assassins to do their dirty work nowadays." it just had to be Yakuza, what lowly street punk would know how to exacute someone like that without even trying?
"Want me to report this back to the bosses?"
"No." was her blunt reply. She pushed herself off the railling and continued to walk down the stairs. "Do not do that just yet."
"What are you up to?" she knew very well what she was up to. Shizuru just had her ego bruised, there was a reason she didn't want to report this. To Shizuru, its a real embarrassment to let some Yakuza thug kill her target before she could. She was being prideful, if she knew Shizuru well, she would say that she was going to look for this Yakuza assassin, and get some pay back.
"...sigh...your being reckless again, Fujino." but disspite her words she was smilling, she liked it when the composed and cool Fujino would go on a rampage like this. It was very entertaining.
Shizuru was on a new mission.
Find this unknown assassin.
To be continued...
A/N: So that's the end of chap. 1, on the next one they meet. Will Shizuru get her pay back? Or will it lead to other things, things she really didn't expect to end up doing? I'll leave it to your imagination. Was it good, bad? Epic fail? How about a review and you tell me what you think? I apologize for any mistakes in this fic.
I hope you readers enjoyed it.
And thanks for reading!
