The 'Teer of Justice
Prologue:
The wind was blowing wildly, and in the distance you could just make out the line of ink-black clouds flowing along the skyline. A storm was coming. A shadow streams in and out of the darkness. In the moonlight you could just make out her mask, grinning at everything in sight.
Cheshire was racing to the little warehouse outside Bludhaven. She had gotten an anonymous call earlier that night, telling her to be there at precisely this time, and she would be greatly rewarded. Carefully, she scanned the area around her, holding her sai sword at the level of her eyes. Expecting her new employer to jump out and attack her.
Suddenly, a dark, yet familiar voice called out to her.
"You really should be careful with those."
She turned to the voice and saw a male that seemed younger than her, wearing all black with a hood covering the top half of his face. In his hand was her sai sword. She gasped and looked to her hand to see it gone.
"You could take someone's eye out." He said twirling the sword in his hand and smirking.
She stared at him, "Nice trick." She said, her mask muffling her voice slightly.
She then quickly flipped over and grabbed the sword back and pointed it to him.
"But not good enough." She declared. "Touché." He said, the smirk never leaving his face.
It was then she noticed the shiny, silver briefcase sitting by his feet.
"Who are you?" she asked. His grin fell along with his head, and then he stepped forward while she kept the sword up.
"I'm someone who needs your help" he told her, and she knew by the sincerity of his voice that he was telling the truth. "Why me?" She said.
He looked at her and told her, "It's complicated, but I feel like I trust you." Now she was confused they had never met before. But, wait. His voice sounded familiar.
Her eyes widened. It couldn't be…
She lowered her sword, confused, yet knowing who it was and said, "What must I do?"
His grin returned, "I need you to get something for me." Her eyebrows lifted in surprise, though the mask covered it, "You mean, steal?" she asked
He nodded his head. Her eyes drifted to the briefcase then back to the shadow on his face.
"I'm in"
