Hey guys! For those of you who are waiting for me to update my fanfiction The Adventure Continues, sit tight. I'll be updating soon...hopefully. I was actually writing the next chapter this morning in school. :) Anyway I'm rambling now so I'll let you start reading this new story.
Summery:Ulrich's an assassin. Yumi's a spy sent to take him down. But who would've guessed she'd fall head over heels for him instead? Rated M for swearing and ocasional sexual situations. Possibly a LEMON, not decided yet, but probably not.
Yumi's POV
Yumi shut the door to her car, and looked up at the eighty-odd story building. There was no sign across it, no name of a company, no, it was just a building. It could be an icecream store for all antbody knew.
But she knew exactly what it was. It was a cover. The HQ of an organization so secret it didn't even have initional's or a name. And she was one of their best agents.
Stepping through the large double doors she made her way to the elevator across the lobby. Stepping inside she pressed the button for the top floor. The doors closed and a panel opened to reveal a retnal and fingerprint scanner. She pressed her finger to it as the scanner read her eye. They turned green, and another set of buttones appeared from the wall. She pressed one of them as the elevator began moving down.
After several seconds the doors opened to reveal a large office building with people bustling around carrying papers, and files, and going about their business. She navigated her way through the throng of people until she reached the room she was looking for.
Knocking, she heard a voice say, "Come in." and walked into the briefing room. Inside was a single man sitting at a large rectangular table with a host of open files and papers on it. He looked up as she entered. It was the director.
"Ah Yumi" he said, "Perfect timing. Take a seat." She walked over to the table and took a seat in one of the chairs. "You want some coffee?" he asked gesturing to a coffee pot on the table.
"I hope you brought me here for more than coffee." she said. He pushed a file towards her.
"Straight to business then. Fine." he said. She opened the file reading it's contents.
"The ghost?" she said. "Who's he?" He shrugged.
"We don't know. There are no records, or any known photo's of him. He is literaly a ghost." Yumi closed the file.
"So what DO we know about him?" she asked. He dropped a baggie on the table. Inside was a silver shuriken.
"He's an assassin. He's killed all over the world, and no one has ever beat or caught him." he said.
"And you want me to." She said bluntly. He nodded.
"Yes, we would like that very much." he said to her.
"How do I find him?" she asked. He turned to the tv screen against the wall. It turned on showing a satelite view of what looked like paris.
"He's in paris for a short amount of time." he said as a news report of the assassination of a local drug lord came up on the screen. "John Matock. A drug lord we've been after for quite a while now was killed in his own building a few days ago." Yumi nodded.
"I saw the news report on it. They said a rival gang came in and took out everyone in sight. But they didn't find any bullets, or guns, or any weapons at all." she said making the connection. "The Ghost?" He nodded.
"The Ghost is nothing if not thorogh." he said, "He never leaves any evidence or weapons behind. He never leaves fingerprints, or any other form of identification." He pointed at the shuriken. "We found this one by chance." Yumi studied the weapon closely. "His weapon set is unique. No guns, just blades. He goes up against people with machine guns with only knives, and walks away without a scratch." Yumi looked up at him.
"He's well trained." she said. "How do you konw he's still in paris?" He pointed at the screen.
"The drug lord he killed was working for a gang boss who calls himself Xana. There were two people involved in the deal. The one the Ghost killed, and some high ranking businessman who's secretly a mob boss."
"So you think the Ghost is trying to draw Xana out by killing his men?" she asked. He shook his head.
"The Ghost works for Xana as well, and whatever the two drug lords were doing failed." Yumi's eyes lit up in realization.
"So Xana's tying up loose ends." she said. He nodded.
"We have reason to believe the Ghost will go after the other bussiness man tomarrow afternoon. That'll be your chance to take him." he said. Yumi stood up.
"Anything else I should know about him?" she asked picking up the file.
"He likes Japanese food." he said. Yumi grinned.
"That why you picked me? Japanese." He smiled.
"No. I picked you because the Ghost has a specific skill set almost the same as yours. You use knives and you have those fans of yours." he said. Yumi made the connection.
"Instead of fighting him with guns your fighting him with his own weapon style." she said. He nodded. Suddenly he was very serious.
"Yumi we've sent six agents after this man in the past year, and none of them came back alive if at all. This man is dangerous. He's a killer, and he will be hard to beat." he said. "Be careful." she nodded.
"Your gear's already packed and ready in your car." he said. She nodded and walked out and back to the elevator. She left the building, and got back into her car. She saw the bag of equipment in the back seat.
Sometimes she questions why she joined the spy bussiness, and then she sees the toys and gagets and thinks, 'Oh yeah, That's why.'
She started the car and drove off.
