Ch1 : Sniper
Kyoko looked through her rifle scope, she had been camping on that rooftop for six hours now, she could see her target, crystal clear, she could hear Kanae's voice through her ear device
"I'm hacking into the system now… done! You're good to go Tsuruga, all access cleared!"
"Alright guys I'm going in" sounded the voice of the number one agent.
"Roger, I've got you covered." said the sniper.
"I'm counting on you Kyoko, don't get me killed" the young man, in the tux said, as he walked through the Hotel lobby.
"Heh, who do you think I am?" she said with a snort.
"MO! you two, enough with the bickering, if this fails president Lory will make ME go undercover!"
"We all know how much you like that..." said Ren, with a chuckle.
"That's right! so better not screw this up!" said Kanae with a huff.
"Don't tell me that, she's the one behind the trigger." Replied the amused young man.
"But you're the one isolating the target" said Kyoko calmly, while following his every movement through her scope.
"No pressure, huh?" the young man laughed nervously, stoping at the entrance of the conference room.
"Ok, so on the count to three swipe your access card, I'll be disabling the lock." Kanae typed furiously on her keyboard.
"One"
"Two…"
"Three!"
*Access granted*
"It's all up to you two now, I'll be on standby to disable any alarms but…"
"Relax, Moko-san this isn't his first time."
Ren walked towards a group of businessmen, who seemed to be deep in conversation, the conference room was full of peaople, men in suits and tuxedos, beautiful women in elegant dresses, high class food and a lot of beverages, he fit just right into the crowded room, with his confident aura.
"Takezawa-sama, may I have a word with you?" he said, addressing one of the men.
"Hmm, go ahead my boy" said the man in question, after throwing a calculating look at the young man, probably to guess which company's CEO he was.
"In private." Added Ren, with a serious look on his face.
"Important business, I see" he chuckled "excuse me gentlemen" Takezawa waved his hand, then he glanced at Ren "well, follow me Boy!"
As planned, Ren was now inside the old business man's hotel room, they were now both seated on the facing chairs, separated by a small coffee table.
"So, to what do I owe the pleasure, Tsuruga-san?" the elder man said.
"Oh no! Kyoko his cover got blown" yelled Kanae through the ear piece.
On the other hand, Ren only arched an eyebrow.
"Don't give me that look boy, I know the agency's been after me, of course Lory would only send his finest hound, anything less would be an insult…"
"Kyoko! What are you waiting for?!" Kanae was freaking out, why wouldn't she? This was bound to turn into a disaster, Ren had to go unarmed because of the security check, and going into hand to hand combat would cause a commotion, the old man was no rookie, and he would put up a fight.
"So what's your plan now? You're definitely weaponless, and if you attempt to take me out bare handed my men will be here in an instant" Takezawa was now standing by his cupboard, screwing a silencer into the muzzle of his own gun.
Ren just stayed silent and collected, an indifferent look on his face.
"Kyoko! He's gonna get killed!" yelled kanae, by now she was wondering if the young sniper knew what she was doing, wasn't the target supposed to be dead by now?
"I see, I guess you were planning on slipping some sort of poison in my drink, or maybe you're hiding a needle in that expensive tux of yours?" he said, taking a few steps towards his guest "You youngsters think you have it all figured out, don't you? Sorry to break it out to you boy, but I know every trick in the book, I've been in this business long enough" he smirked "now, any last words?" he said, aiming his gun on Ren's head, his forefinger tucked behind the trigger.
"Sleep tight" said Ren with a slight smirk.
"Huh?" Kanae exclaimed.
"Smug bastard" Kyoko murmured, reflecting his smirk.
Thud!
Ren sighed in relief as Takezawa's dead body hit the floor.
Kanae laughed hysterically, Kyoko knew exactly what she was doing, and Ren knew better than not to trust her.
"This is the last time I'm on you nut jobs' team, I'm done with this!" she said.
"But Moko-san, I needed him on the right angle" Kyoko explained as she disassembled her sniper's rifle.
"Yeah Moko-san, why couldn't you just trust Kyoko-chan like I did?" teased Ren, making his way through the hotel exit.
"I can see you sweat you know?!" said Kanae, looking at her computer screen, which showed Ren's movements.
"Hmm? Were you scared Ren-kun?" said Kyoko, making her way through the streets, getting a few admiring looks, who would suspect the sweet girl in the summer dress, carrying a guitar case.
"Not at all Kyoko-chan, it's just too hot in this get up" He said, shrugging off his jacket and yanking off his bow tie.
"Whatever! I'm going home" Kanae yelled.
"What? No celebration?" asked Ren, grinning slyly, and making a couple of young women swoon.
"Yeah, Moko-san, come play with us!" pleaded Kyoko in her best innocent voice.
"You guys go ahead" she said "as if spending time with you in work isn't bad enough" she added in a low mumble.
"I heard that!" said Ren.
"Moko-san, that's mean!" added Kyoko.
"Mo! Bye!" said Kanae as she disconnected her ear device.
