A/N: Well ... after a certain someone - who shall remain nameless for the moment - reminded me that I never finished this story ... I decided to just delete the whole thing and start all over, hopefully this time it will be updated again before another year passes. _

Prologue: Angels In Action

Take the prisoner to room 314. A deep voice bellowed out from the elevator speakers, as two men dragged a lifeless blonde into the shaft. They jumped at the presence of the voice, but quickly followed the orders. Once the door beeped signaling the arrival of their floor, they grabbed their prisoner and began dragging her through a labyrinth of hallways, occasionally catching her arm or head as they turned corners. The only noises in the hall came from the clinking of metal as the shackles and chains around the blonde's ankles and wrists rattled against the cement floor, until they finally stopped at a large black door. Next to it was a small plaque reading 314. Pulling the blonde into the room they immediately fastened another chain around her ankles, raising her high enough that her dangling arms were far above the ground. Suddenly, something fell onto the floor with a hard clunk!, causing both men to look down. What's that there? One guard asked, as his partner picked it up to examine it more closely. It appeared to be a small firearm, though it seemed way to small to be packing any bullets.

That would be mine. Both guards spun around at the sound of a low husky voice, almost as shocked as they were in the elevator lift. She whipped the chain around her wrists to encircle the man's hand holding her gun' and twisted it, causing him to scream in pain as his bones felt like they were about to break. The small silver object flew into the air and she caught it with her free hand and quickly fired two darts from it; both hit the guards in the neck causing both of them to slump onto the ground. Looking around for the keys to release her, she rolled both men over, finding a set inside one of their pockets.



What the hell!? One guard mumbled, as his eyes came to focus he realized that he was hanging upside down next to his partner. He suddenly spotted the blonde they were dragging earlier in front of him, changing into his own uniform. Who do you think you are!? Someone's going to find us!

The blonde rolled her eyes as she zipped up the jacket and pulled the hat lower to hide her face, before lashing out and punching him in square in the nose. That's for hitting me on the first corner. She then whipped around and roundhouse kicked him, knocking him out unconscious. And that's for hitting me on the second one. Exiting the room she made sure to lock it, when she pulled out a small black cellphone. I'm in.

Great ... I'm picking up your coordinates ... now. A deep voice replied. Head straight down, and take the third left. Take the elevator to the 38th floor. It'll be the second door on the right. The blonde nodded and put away her cellphone, following the directions quickly. As she waited in the lift, several people came in and out, and she remained calm and focused. Once out on her floor she made sure no one was looking before she entered the room.

In the center of the room was a small black box surrounded by red, motion-detection lasers. Pulling her cell back out she hit redial' in a frenzy, You didn't say there were going to be lasers, Setsuna!! The woman hissed into the phone.

They weren't in the schematics Michiru brought back!! The woman named Setsuna replied; frantic typing on the keyboards could be heard through the phone. Haruka, are you sure you're in the right room!?

The blonde huffed and rolled her eyes, Unless you directed me to the wrong one, NO! She sighed and took a deep breath. Tell Michiru to rendezvous with me at the alpha point.

You're not going to do what I think you're going to do, are you!?

Well ... unless you can think of another way!

You are so stupi-- Her words were cut short as she hung up the phone and put it back in her pocket, cricking her neck to the side and taking a few deep breaths. This is soooo stupid ... She mumbled to herself, before running right through the lasers and grabbing the box, immediately jumping out of the room. Sirens went off and several guards bursted through the doors opening fire at the runaway. The elevator doors suddenly opened as a scientist stepped out, when he was bowled over by the blonde as she slid into the doors, hitting the close button frantically. Ok ... so that went better than planned ... She thought to herself, as she opened the top hatch panel climbing out. Ensuring that the box was tucked safely inside her pocket, she grabbed the cable tightly and pulled out a gun, firing at the hook that it was connected to. She immediately shot upwards as the lift plummeted down the shaft, and smashed through a set of wooden planks onto the roof of the building.

Hitting the ground with a hard thud, she rolled onto her stomach and pulled her cell phone out again, I'm on the roof. Michiru better be in position, and you're dead when we get back to the agency. She grumbled as she jumped to her feet and headed towards the edge of the building. Out of nowhere, a half dozen guards busted out of the roof door, all pointing their guns at the blonde. YOU HAVE NOWHERE TO RUN TO! One shouted at Haruka, SURRENDER NOW!

Who said I had to use a door to leave? The blonde asked innocently, stepping up onto the ledge of the roof.

Don't even try it mister!

Hey! I'm a woman!! Haruka shouted back, sounding slightly offended. She looked down at her watch and grinned, Now if you'll excuse me, I have some earlier engagements I must be attending. She turned around and dived off the roof, the guards all charging forward. She jumped! The guard shouted into his comm device, slamming his fist on the railing. As they looked downwards, a black parachute opened up, camouflaging her into the dark night. There's gonna be hell to pay for this ...


An aqua haired woman hit a small green button next to the radio as she drove a jeep through the deserted road.

Yeah ... I'm in position. But where the hell are you!?

Right here. Haruka grinned as she released her parachute and climbed over, taking a seat next to Michiru.

You always have to make an entrance. The aqua haired girl teased, keeping her eyes on the road.

The blonde smirked as she pulled out the small black box, carefully placing it into a briefcase and snapping it shut. You should've seen my exit. Now this ought to make the clients happy. She removed her hat and jacket, throwing it into the back, And by the way, when we get back to the agency, Setsuna's dead.
