AUTHORS NOTE: So, let's do another big story! I've been pumping the stories daily, but expect a slow process with school starting up again. The idea for this story came from Ringmaster118, who has been my biggest supporter since my first story. I really want to thank him, and to everyone else who has supported me. I've put out this first chapter, and I'll see how you guys like it, and if I should continue. Let's do this!
Athena Cykes ran as fast as she could.
The police heard that old man scream when he was stabbed, and they were hunting her down. That was kill number 109.
Athena Cykes was a murderer
Her job is simple- receive a request of a target, and take them out. The money will be transferred to her account if the target was killed.
Assuming she doesn't get arrested right now.
She was a Most Wanted criminal, and the police were hot on her tail at all times.
Like right now for instance.
She ran into an alleyway, and hid behind a corner, letting the cars and patrols go past. She spoke into Widget
"Apollo, get to the alleyway, next to the restaurant. Quick"
She wasn't alone in this criminal life. Apollo Justice was her partner. They first met when they were hired on a job together, and have worked together since.
Athena looked around the corner. It seemed all of the remaining cops had gone
"Hands in the fucking air. Now"
Athena froze. She heard the unmistakable sound of a pistol being aimed directly at her. She raised her hands slowly. The cop behind her went for the cuffs, but in doing so, took his eyes off Athena for a split second.
That was all she needed.
Athena grabbed the cops wrist with the gun in it, and pointed it in the air. She turned around, and punched the man in the throat. He grabbed his neck gasping for air. Athena delivered the final blow by striking him in the head with her elbow, knocking him out cold. She kneeled down, and grabbed the gun. It was pretty basic, nothing she needed. She emptied the clip, and grabbed all the ammo inside.
Athena heard someone whistle, obviously impressed
"Nice job, Tiger"
Athena smirked
"Could've gotten here sooner, Apollo"
Apollo walked up to her
"You got a picture of the body to send in?" Apollo asked. Athena turned on Widget, and it showed off a picture of the dead body. It had a knife sticking out of its back, and marks around its neck
"Bit violent there, Athena" Apollo commented. Athena sighed
"The old shit put up a good fight" Athena said, pulling up her shirt to show a big bruise on her back
"Ouch. You gonna be alright?" Apollo asked
"Fine. Let's get outta here before more pigs show up"
Apollo and Athena started walking towards the car.
"What the.. Oh shit, it's them! Guys, it's-" a cop behind the two of them was silenced when a gunshot rang through the alleyway. Athena turned to Apollo, who had shot the guy without even looking
"Show off" Athena smirked
"Not my fault I got an ability to shoot, and shoot well" Apollo teased, spinning the gun in his finger before putting it back in the holster. They got in the car, and sped off. Apollo held the steering wheel with one hand, while he tuned the radio with the other hand. He eventually stopped at a station playing Gold On The Ceiling by The Black Keys.
Athena tagged the photo in a message sent to their contractor, before switching off Widget
"How much was he paying us again?" Athena asked
Apollo thought
"It was around $10,000 for both of us, so it's a $5,000 split between us" Apollo said.
"That's a bit overpriced for an old guy" Athena said with curiosity in her voice. Apollo looked at Athena with shock
"You didn't know? That was the ex-detective, Tyrell Badd, I think it was. He was actually part of the Yatagarasu, so the bounty on his head was big" Apollo explained. Athena shrugged
"Never heard of him. He fought fucking hard that's for sure. Took a goddamn statue to my back. I think it did something to my kidney" Athena said, wincing in pain.
Apollo looked at her, worried.
"You'll probably get some blood in your urine next couple of days, but like a skin wound, it'll heal and scab over" Apollo explained.
Athena raised one eyebrow
"Impressive knowledge, Apollo. You been studying?" Athena asked. Apollo chuckled
"Nah, I just read it in a book"
Widget flashed, and Athena booted it up.
"See that, Apollo? $10,000. Right there" Athena grinned. Apollo slapped Athena on the back
"Good work, Tiger"

Trucy Wright saw the blue diamond. It was sitting in a red pillow. She tipped her hat down to avoid being seen, and slipped out a key through her sleeve. She fiddled with the lock, before getting it to open. She casually walked away. She needed to make sure no one else was in the room. She walked over to the fire alarm, and silently switched it on
VROOOOM VROOOOM VROOOOM
Everyone in the building started evacuating immediately. Guards started running past, when one saw the casual looking blue cape and hat tipped down walking
"Miss! There's a fire, you need to move!" The guard screamed. Trucy looked up, and flashed a smile
"Is there, officer? I wasn't aware" She said in a cute tone.
"What the hell are you talking about?! There's sirens going off all around!" The guard screamed.
Trucy snickered
"Oh I can hear them. I can't smell a fire though. You find these sirens annoying?" Trucy asked, reaching into her pocket
"What the- Why are you asking me that?" The guard yelled
"If you find the sirens annoying, I can stop them. You see, there is no fire" Trucy squeaked out
The guard was confused out of his mind
"Little girl, you can't stop these sirens" the guard said in disbelief.
"Yes you can. Like this!" Trucy jumped up and stabbed the guard in the throat. Blood hit Trucy's face, but the guard eventually fell and died. Trucy pulled the knife out of the guards throat, before walking back to the diamond ring. She opened the case, and gawked at it. Over $1,000,000. She grabbed it with her gloved hands, inspecting it. Then she felt someone grab her from behind.
"Got you, bitch!"
One of the guards held her by the chest, squeezing. She wriggled and kicked, but couldn't escape his grip. Suddenly, she was thrown at a wall, and her back hit it hard. She fell over winded, with the diamond ring in her hand. The guard walked over to her, pulling out his pistol
"I finally bring the thief and murderer, Trucy Wright, to death!" The guard exclaimed, aiming the pistol at her. Trucy simply smiled, with blood from the other guard still on her face.
"Nuh-uh! Not yet!" Trucy said. On cue, a man grabbed the guard by the throat, and started choking the guard. The man eventually snapped the guards neck.
"You got the ring, Trucy?" The man asked
Trucy flashed the diamond ring
"Right here, Daddy!" Trucy yelped.
Phoenix grinned
"Good! Now let's get out before more of these fucks show up" Phoenix grunted. He pulled out a rope, and broke the window to the back alleyway with his elbow. He chucked the rope down, and started sliding down it. When Trucy got on the rope, police burst into the room
"There she is! Kill her" The chief yelled, before his squad opened fire on the girl. She slid down the rope, and followed Phoenix to a getaway car.
"Let's go, Truce" Phoenix said, getting in. Phoenix started the engine, and slammed the accelerator, slamming the gates out of the alleyway and getting them on the street. They drove casually to avoid all contact.
"Still got that thief skill, Truce! You did good" Phoenix cheered. Trucy pulled out the ring
"Where we selling this?" She asked
"Probably to Tim Sheppard. He will defiantly pay up" Phoenix explained.
(O)
Trucy and Phoenix Wright were the most wanted thieves and murderers. The Father/Daughter couple everyone feared. Trucy always got the expensive piece, in any ways possible. Phoenix Wright was extremely fit, and had some gadgets handy for his job.
Apollo Justice and Athena Cykes were the two biggest murderers of all time. They had killed 110 and possibly more people. They always got a contract done, and always got away. Athena Cykes could hack into anything technological, and see around corners with her friend, Widget. She was also trained in martial arts. Apollo Justice was an excellent driver for any vehicle, and the best shooter in the world. He has never missed a shot. Not once. These 4 criminals have been hunted for years, but never caught.
(O)
"Very nice, very nice. You two did well"
Tim Sheppard was inspecting the diamond ring.
"All real, perfect match. I say you've earned yourself the money" Tim said.
Trucy beamed up
"Not yet, though. I have one more job you need to do"
Phoenix and Trucy slumped forward.
"You two can't do this alone, no no no, you need more people. That's why I've called in these two"
Phoenix and Trucy turned around to see the infamous Apollo Justice and Athena Cykes.
"What the fuck do we need them for?" Phoenix asked. Tim pointed to the seats
"Sit down, I'll explain"
The four of them sat down, and Tim handed them a file
"Have any of you heard of that famous spirit medium, Maya Fey?" Tim asked
Phoenix flipped open the document and saw a picture of a girl with weird, long hair. She had purple robes on and seemed to have a massive bow tie on her clothes.
"She's pretty famous for contacting the dead but that's not what I need her for"
Tim leaned in
"I need her spiritual powers for some testing. You have any idea how useful they'd be in crime?" Tim explained.
Phoenix was still staring at this girl. He had never seen her before.
"Here's what you need to do"
Tim pulled out a map of what seemed to be a manor
"You need to get inside this manor, I recommend taking a boat to drop you off at the cliffs on the side. We'll supply you with some hook guns to use. Guards are marked on the map, as well as their patrol. Taking the back way is the safest way. Make it into her room. You'll use this dart to put her to sleep for a bit, enough time to get out of there with her. If your boat is destroyed, Apollo, you'll take one of the cars or vans there. Unfortunately, a drive back here will be long. About a week, I suppose. The reward will be well worth it"
Tim pulled out a suitcase with a bunch of money in it
"Not only that, I can supply you with gadgets, guns, anything. Just get that girl to me. A boat is waiting at the harbor behind this building. It's the red one, medium sized. Should take you about 4 hours to get to her manor, navigations has been set up in the GPS unit"
Tim leaned back in his chair
"Y'all accept?" He asked.
Phoenix looked at Trucy, and she nodded
"Trucy and I are in. You two?"
Apollo and Athena whispered to each other for a bit
"We accept" Athena said. Tim clapped his hands together
"Excellent! You can get your boat going! I'll see you in a week!"
Phoenix, Trucy, Apollo and Athena walked out, supplied with a silenced pistol, hook guns, and Phoenix supplied with a dart gun. They all got on the boat, and Phoenix started it up, starting to move towards the location.
The objective was simple
Kidnap Maya Fey.
