Assassins
Chapter 1 the family business
Name: Elise Jane Crenshaw
Gender: female
Species: Homo Lycannis (human wolf)
Occupation: assassin
Appearance: short with black hair, green eyes, muscular yet still feminine, powerful and graceful
Lightly tanned with freckles, broad shouldered slender waist. Wild and fierce beauty. Small scar over right eye reaching to the top of cheek. Wolf form is a long haired black wolf the same size as Elise making for an intimidating tall wolf with a strong body.
Skills: trained in several martial arts deadly in hand to hand combat, excellent with a sword, a crack shot with guns preference for dual pistols, excellent at stalking and silently disarming targets, tracking skills are perfect. Skilled in disguise and espionage can easily take out men twice her size. Wolf form is formidable used for tracking down targets with power and speed and endurance when needed
Other notes: Elise is a natural fighter who is strong but charming. Prefers the fairer sex for company and has no problem in putting men down with skill and ease. She is the agent sent in to deal with difficult situations or if a target is of the same persuasion as she is. Loyal and strong her family and friends are the things that are most important to her. DO NOT MENTION THESE IN A NEGATIVE WAY.
Elise was walking through the cold and bitter winter wearing a long thick black coat that one of her friends had once described as her death coat, something she found highly amusing given her profession and species. She was a natural born killer but then what could you expect when you were born into that kind of family.
Elise made her way through the street and toward a tall building that looked like a corporation of some kind, though this facade was really just a cover for what went on inside this building as you really shouldn't advertise that you were really assassins who tortured and killed people for information as a job. Entering the building the short female walked to the front desk where an attractive blonde lady was sitting looking at her computer behind said desk. At the sound of footsteps the blonde lady looked up at Elise and smiled coyly.
Elise smirked back at the attractive blonde before she leant on the desk and began talking in her low smooth voice that had a slight growl to it.
"Hello Natalie how are you this evening?"
"Miss Crenshaw I am well thank you for asking. Your mother has requested you go to her office for a new assignment as soon as possible please" replied Natalie in a somewhat flirty tone.
"Please Natalie call me Elise I insist" Elise's' smirk became even wider when she saw Natalie become a bit more flushed at her tone.
"Now that would hardly be professional Miss Crenshaw. I would suggest you go see your mother now you know she doesn't like to be kept waiting"
"I suppose you are right Natalie I will see you some other time then enjoy your evening"
And with that Elise waved to Natalie and headed to the elevators up to the top floor of the building which opened up to her mother's office.
The office was large taking up the entire space of the top floor. It was filled with priceless art and statues that her mother had deemed stunning. The space was filled with several bookshelves placed along the walls neatly that had hundreds of books stacked on its shelves tidily. There was a small kitchen in which her mother could prepare the light meals she ate if she were working late into the night as she often did. There were black leather couches placed around coffee tables that her mother could sit in and read when she felt inclined to do so.
Near the large glass windows was a wooden desk with a large leather swivel chair currently facing away from Elise looking out the window over the city. A fire place was placed in one wall and had been lit to keep the room warm. As Elise walked towards the desk she heard her mother's voice greeting her but the chair had not moved. Picking up a plastic chair and moving it to her mother's desk Elise sat down and crossed her legs waiting for her mother to continue speaking.
Name: Katrina Crenshaw
Gender: female
Species: Homo Lycannis (human wolf)
Occupation: assassin (retired) head of the family, gives the missions to the agents gathers intelligence, runs the corporation and business
Appearance: silver hair, slightly shorter that Elise freckled, brown eyes trim slight muscle. Attractive and fierce. Wolf form is that of a silver furred wolf the same height as human appearance.
Skills: Katrina was an exceptional assassin back in her day. Although small she could take down men four times her size without batting an eyelash. She is fierce and proud and had taught her children to be the same. Incredibly intelligent and well educated she is exceptional at gathering information from even the trickiest of sources. Preferring the more peaceful life she became the head intelligence gatherer and the CEO of the corporation dealing with the hr issues and public relations.
Other notes: Katrina is the mother of four children. She is fiercely protective of them and has taught them almost everything they know about being assassins. Although stern she is proud of her children though she does not often show it particularly towards Elise her youngest. Loves crime novels.
"I trust you are well Elise?" inquired Katrina still not having turned around to face her youngest daughter.
"Yes mother I am even though I hate this damn cold weather that you enjoy so much" replied Elise in a bored tone.
There was silence for a few seconds before her mother spoke again this time swivelling the chair to look at her youngest daughter and child.
"We have a new case that I require you to handle. It is pretty dangerous and requires a particular set of skills that only you have. It is to be done within two weeks and I want your report to be handed in the day after it is finished. There can be no problems with this Elise, read over the case and the attached files and then begin your preparations as you see fit"
And with that her mother handed her a manila sealed folder and dismissed her with a goodbye and wave of her hand. Standing up Elise bid her mother farewell and strode to the elevator while tucking the folder into her coat. Pushing the button for the ground floor Elise waited until the doors opened and she strode out with a purpose, heading towards the building's entrance and her home.
AN
So this is a story I've been toying around with for a while and I think it has potential. Just to clarify anything that is in bold in the story that is NOT an A/N is a file on the person being introduced so the first is Elise's file and the second is her mother Katrina, anything not in bold is the story/dialogue portion.
Anyway let me know what you think so far
