Summary: Elsa Morimoto was adopted at birth and trained to be a Yakuza Operative/Assassin. Elsa was sent on a mission to kidnap the daughter of a prominent pair of politicians. Elsa soon finds out that the target's nature is something that no training could have prepared her for.
One night in the middle of a large city in China there is a large estate with large grounds and gardens filled with plants. A tall wall surrounded the grounds and the house. In one of the estates gardens was a smallish bush that if you look at it you wouldn't see the small person crouched behind it. The person was covered from head to toe in a skin tight black outfit. Even the hair and face was covered, only the person eyes were exposed. Those vibrant blue eyes followed a man walking by the person's location.
Elsa was crouched next to an arborvitae plant that completely shadowed her location. Elsa's stealth suit made her look like the ancient ninja's of japan only her eyes were not covered. Elsa pulled out a knife and moved behind the roaming guard that was near her. Elsa plunged knife up to the hilt in the guards back at the level of the kidney. The guard went completely stiff and Elsa pulled him down into the bush that she was just hiding under.
Elsa made sure the body was disguised before she moved into the house. Elsa silently moved into the house hiding in small closets and corners as guards roamed around the house. Elsa knew the layout by heart and had every spot she could hide memorized. Soon Elsa could see the door that she needed to go through, the only problem was that it had two guards standing outside of it. Elsa knew that the time for secrecy was over and the only way past them was through them.
Elsa drew her Katana and pulled another knife out. Elsa turned the corner and was already at a full sprint. Elsa threw the knife and is sailed through the air burying itself in the farthest guard's neck. The other guard started to bring up his assault rifle, but he was far too slow for Elsa's training. Elsa kicked the weapon and thrust her sword through the man's chest. Two more guards dead without a sound.
Elsa opened the door and saw the target. An ageing Japanese man was sitting at a desk with a pen in one hand and he was furiously writing on paper. It looked like the man had been writing for a while because a lot of paper was stacked high on the table. When the man looked up his eye's dilated and he went completely pale.
Speaking in Japanese, "Please they have my family." Elsa pulled her head cover down exposing her white braid and face. If the man could have gone any whiter he did "The White Shadow."
Elsa walked forward bringing her blade up and the man started crying. In Japanese "Morimoto sends his regards," Elsa said just before she sliced the blade across the man's neck. Elsa's blade severed the man's head from his body in one slice. The man's tears were still dropped down his cheeks as Elsa wiped her blade on the man's shoulder before sheathing it. Elsa would give the sword a more proper cleaning after she was out of danger. Elsa covered her head again and moved out of the room down the hall to an adjacent room. This room had a window in it and the window faced away from Elsa's approach.
As expected Elsa saw guards moving towards the other side of the house were Elsa had hid a body of a guard. The alarms started sounding and the guards started moving to secure the house. Elsa moved out the window and down the house back into the heavily garden grounds. Elsa silently sprinted across the grounds to the wall that surrounded the compound. Lights started shining all over the place, but the lights were on the wall that Elsa was now beneath. Elsa had placed a small rope over the wall earlier and she quickly scaled over the wall.
Once over the wall Elsa moved across the street to where Elsa had left a bag and her guitar case. Elsa uncovered her hair and pulled out her braid. The bag had a long dress that Elsa pulled on over her suit and a pair of high heels. Elsa placed her Katana inside the guitar and closed up the case. Elsa then walked out of the alley like she had done every night for the past six weeks. The guards move out of the compound and around the wall. They had seen Elsa so many times that they just looked right past as she walked towards her small apartment not far from the compound.
Elsa stayed awake all night just in case someone somehow connected the blond musician with the killings. When Elsa saw the sun start to rise she knew that it was clear. So Elsa packed up her few things in a duffle bag, grabbed her guitar case and moved out of the apartment. Elsa walked towards the train station. Elsa waited until she was half way there and completely surrounded by people before pulling out the cell phone that was a prepaid phone and dialed.
"Mushi Mushi," the voice answered, Elsa knew the voice so well she had heard it for years growing up.
Continued in Japanese "It is finished," Elsa answered, as she continued to the train station.
"Are you clear?" the voice asked, with concern in his voice. Elsa had this conversation so many times before, that even the slightest change in the man's voice was clear as day.
"Yes, don't worry," Elsa replied, as these conversations were supposed to be all business.
"We have one last job before you will take a long vacation," the voice said and Elsa was totally confused.
"I don't need a vacation. Did I do something wrong?" Elsa couldn't help feeling nervous. If she had messed up one of her missions it wouldn't matter who her father was she would be dead.
"I was informed the other day that if you didn't get a vacation soon my mother would put an assassination order on me," Elsa had to smile and covered her mouth to hide the smile. Elsa didn't remember her birth parents or how she came to be with her adopted parents, but her adopted Grand-mother was very fond of Elsa. Gran was very much against Elsa's training and current profession.
"Tell her that I miss her too. What is the job?" Elsa asked. They still didn't use names or other information that could be used to track or identify who was talking. The precautions were necessary as the Chinese government listened to every cell phone conversation.
"Head to the capital and the hotel," Elsa knew which hotel since it was one of the few that the group that Elsa was associated with owned. "Get the package for you with your passport, plane tickets and locker key. Once you get to your location find the locker number that matched your birth year and all the other information on the job."
"Is it private, public or natural?" Elsa asked, the only question about the job that she was allowed to ask.
"None. It is a grab and hold," the voice answered, and Elsa was totally confused. That was not what Elsa was trained for, Elsa was trained to assassinate.
"I'm sure there is someone else better suited for that job," Elsa said, as she walked into the train station.
"You will see why we need to use your abilities when you read the specifics. Good luck and be safe," the voice then hung up. Elsa then closed the phone and snapped it in half and put one piece in the trash before she boarded the train. The other half went into the woman's bathroom trash on the train itself.
Elsa couldn't believe she just walked out of customs in San Francisco. Elsa had always heard that the US customs agents were the worst in the world, but that wasn't as bad North Korea at all. Elsa found the locker that matched her birth year and the key that she had unlocked it. Elsa pulled out the large duffel bag that weighed a lot heavier than her usual bags. Elsa just swung the bag over her shoulder and walked into the woman's restroom stall to open the bag. Elsa opened the bag and saw several large stacks of cash, paper clip with identification cards, a second bag inside with cloths in it and a key ring with several keys on it. Elsa picked up the ID and saw that her new name wasn't that far from her original name.
Elsa Queen San Jose California, an address, a school ID and a school schedule. Elsa was even more confused than she was before. Elsa had finished school four years early even on Japanese standards Elsa was way above everyone else. That was all Elsa was going to look at in the airport restroom so she packed up some money in a purse, threw in the identification, the key ring and then moved out of the stall. Elsa headed to the transportation hut and called for a cab. Elsa gave the cabby the address that was on Elsa's new ID. Elsa didn't say much because Elsa would need time to get rid of the Japanese accent.
The cab dropped Elsa off at the largest house Elsa had ever seen. In Japan even her family, that was associated with the organization, didn't have a house this large. Elsa walked up to the front door while pulling out the key ring and saw that the lock looked like a Baldwin lock. Elsa looked through the key ring and saw a very large fat key that matched the Baldwin lock. Elsa opened the door and saw that the house was disgustingly large. Elsa couldn't possibly keep this entire house secured and then Elsa saw a camera staring at her. Elsa looked around the entry way and saw a tablet on the table just next to the stairs. The tablet had a sticky note on it with a small note in Japanese that said Security system coded to anniversary.
Elsa picked up the tablet and coded in the anniversary of her adopted parents wedding. The tablet unlocked and showed that there were cameras all over the house. There was also a room that was titled PANIC. Elsa saw that the Panic room had a bed, desk, wardrobe and a bathroom off of it. Elsa knew that was the place she would spend most of her time in. Elsa ignored the upstairs and moved over to the master bedroom. That room had the Panic room off of it. Elsa opened the door and inspected the room. The room was going to be her base of operations. Elsa unpacked the rest of the duffel back and opened the large manila envelope to find out who her target was.
Elsa's target was the daughter of a pair of powerful politicians and she was to take the daughter. Elsa then realized why she was chosen as the daughter had several very large guards around her at all times except at school. The daughter went to an all-girls school and was the only time that it was suspected that she was vulnerable. Elsa was enrolled in the school and that was the school ID that she had. Elsa spent the rest of the day and night researching the target.
It was morning several days later at a very large building that was covered in windows. Outside the building cars were in a long line and men in black and white suits were standing next to many of those cars. Many of the men kept looking all around as they moved around the cars and opened a door of the cars. One car a man opened it and another man got out quickly followed by a high school student. The girl was dressed exactly the same as all the rest of the girls. Black skirts or pants with thin gold vertical stripes down them, a pure white button up shirt with a collar, a black neck tie with diagonal gold stripes repeating down the tie and most wore a gold coat. The girl had strawberry blond hair that looked like it was braided and then wrapped up around her head in a bun. The whole thing was held together with green and gold ribbons and only other distinct feature on the girl was the large gold watch around her wrist. The two men flanked the girl as she walked up to the large building.
Anna had her braids wrapped together around her head and was walking into school. The men that escorted Anna stopped at the door and Anna just ignored them as they were often rotated. So Anna didn't even try to get to know the men since they wouldn't be around more than three months. Anna checked her watch as she moved through the school and dropped her bag off at her locker before going to her home room. Anna then sensed someone standing behind her and Anna spun around quickly.
"You missed a great time at the mountain this weekend Anna," Aurora said, with a huge smile on her face. Aurora's golden hair was tied back in a ponytail with a pink and blue ribbons wrapped around her hair. Aurora didn't like wearing makeup even without it her red lips and flawless skin made her breath taking to look at. Why Aurora had been Anna's friend for so long was anyone's guess.
"Yea my parents needed me to go with them. I would have rather been skiing with you all," Anna answered, as she looked at Aurora with the dismay. "I had to dress up, wear high heels and got dirty looks for every little thing I ate. So by the end of the weekend my feet were killing me and I was starving," Anna explained, as she grabbed her book and folder out of the locker and left her bag.
"Tomorrow we will do some retail therapy after school," Aurora answered, as they walked towards their home-room.
"Hay did you guys hear," Anna and Aurora had to stop and turn to look at Belle as she walked up to them. Belle's long brown hair was tucked behind her ears today. Belle normally had her nose in a book, but even with her nose in a book Belle heard and listened to everything. Belle also didn't like wearing makeup because it made her break out. Belle's skin was also flawless as a marble statue, not covered in freckles like Anna. Belle had joined Anna and Aurora's small group when they came to high school. Belle went to a different private school for grade school, but she was a perfect fit with Anna and Aurora. "There is a new girl in school. I heard Alexis talking about it," the three of them moved towards their homeroom. "She is going to be in our homeroom and she has been going to school in Japan," Belle finished just as they turned into the room.
Just as Belle said there was a new girl sitting in the back of the room. Her hair was so blond that it looked white as snow. The girl didn't look up as the classroom filled. Instead she kept her eyes down at her notebook and she was writing something. With one hand she jotted notes the other hand was idly twisted her long white braid that draped over her shoulder. Anna took her chair a few seats up and one to the left of the new girl. Their homeroom teacher was always late to homeroom and today was no different.
As he walked in a sudden loud scrapping noise filled the room. Anna jumped at the noise as did everyone else as Anna looked at the sound and she saw that the new girl was standing. The noise was her chair scraping against the ground as she suddenly stood. The new girl's cheeks turned a shade of red as she looked down and returned to her seat. Everyone in the room laughed at the new girl, because they didn't know that in Japan schools it was expected to stand when a teacher entered the room.
"Enough. Well as you can all see we have a new student in our school," Mr. Mason spoke, and waved the new girl to stand. The girl stood at the teachers command "This is Elsa Queen. Everyone I want you to all make sure she feels welcome." Anna looked back and saw that Elsa had returned to her chair. Elsa was again writing in her note book. Anna wanted to see what she was writing, but Mr. Mason went right into the class.
Anna's day was filled with surprises as Elsa was in nearly every class. The only class that Elsa was absent in was Anna's last class her computer programming class. Anna collected her stuff, checked the time and moved towards the exit of school. Belle walked in step with Anna, her nose in a book reading as they headed towards the exit. Aurora met Anna and Belle at the door and smiled at them.
"So the new girl was in my final choir class," Aurora started, as she opened the door for Anna. Anna use to be in choir with Aurora, but her parents didn't think choir was a good way to spend her time in school. So Anna dropped choir for computer programming, which her parents thought was more appropriate then singing.
"I thought that class was audition only?" Anna asked as they moved out into the schools main yard that was filled with students or guards. Anna wasn't the only girl in school that had a security detail, Aurora also had a guard waiting for her.
"It is that was why Mr. Schmidt made her sing an audition in front of the class," Aurora explained. Anna tilted her head as she went to ask how that went, but Aurora interrupted "She grabbed a guitar and sang the most beautiful song I have heard in a long time." Anna envied Elsa a little as Anna loved to sing and wished she could have been there.
Anna's guards flanked her and started escorted Anna towards the car. "Tomorrow we will go to the mall and shop your woes away," Aurora called out, as she was escorted towards her car by her own guard.
"I can't wait," Belle called out as she moved towards her own car. Belle's father stood at the curb and hugged Belle as they got in the car. Anna couldn't help feeling a little jealous of Belle's relationship with her parents. Anna's mother hadn't picked Anna up from school since second grade. Anna looked over her shoulder to get into the car and saw the Elsa walked away from school. No one was there to greet her, no guards and no parents. Elsa had her head down and her braid draped over her shoulder as she moved across the street towards where ever her house was.
Seeing Elsa walk with her head down and hearing everyone laugh as she stood up as the teachers entered the room all day made Anna feel bad about not taking the time to talk to Elsa today. Anna would have talked to Elsa at lunch, but instead the three of them got food and went to the library to do homework. Tomorrow Anna was going to talk to the new girl and make her feel welcome.
"Ma'am," one of her guards got her attention as they were holding the door open for Anna and Anna stood at the edge of the car. Anna looked away from Elsa and slid into the car.
I'm always looking to improve my writing abilities. If you find some bad grammar or sentence structure you could always message me. Just let me know what I did wrong and how to fix it would be wonderful, so I can learn and get better.
