Chapter 1: Step one: go undercover
In these corridors the darkness was complete, but Jewel had a map in her mind. One that had so far proven correct, as Skye's maps tended to do. Jewel ran her hand along the cold metal walls and counted doors and passageways as she went. Turning to her left, Jewel finally found the opening that should contain a stairway leading down. She crouched and felt forward with her hands, feeling the sudden decline that meant she was on the right track.
Jewel slunk down the stairway. One left turn and three right turns, she heard voices as she entered a corridor that beamed white from the light of wide screened lights that sat at the end of the room. Across from the light was another corridor where, according to Skye, could be from two to ten guards standing watch before a certain database at the passageway's end.
This database was Jewels mission. It was for it that she had been sent here in the first place.
Jewel crept toward the light and the sound of laughter. She could stop and listen, to get a better sense at what she was dealing with, but there was no time. Jewel pulled her hood down low and swung around the corner.
She almost tripped over her first four victims, who were sitting on the floor across from each other, their backs against the wall and their legs splayed out carelessly. Jewel kicked and struck at temples and necks, and the four men lay slumped together on the floor before amazement had even registered in their eyes.
There was only one more guard, sitting before the currently turned off huge screened database at the end of the corridor. He scrambled to his feet and put his hands on the hilt of his gun. Jewel advanced towards him, knowing that the light from behind created a shadow that hid her face.
...And it didn't hurt that it made her look like a complete and legitimate badass.
She measured his size, the way he moved, the unsteadiness of the hand he would fire his gun with. "S-stop there! I will shoot you!" he shouted, probably attempting to be threatening, but completely failing.
Jewel kept her steady walk forward, not to slow to think she was teasing him, but not fast enough to where it was threatening. She could see the panick as she got closer toward the man, make that a boy, he couldn't possibly be but three to four years older that her. twenty-one, twenty-four tops. Jewel felt a small pang of sympathy for him. didn't Steel even train his men before throwing them into the job of protecting such a wanted database?
Of course not, James Steel was a heartless man who wanted only what was best for him. Which was why Jewel was here, to show Steel the consequences about making a deal with D.A.R.K. and not keeping your part of it.
"T-thats it, I warned you!" the guard yelled, and fired a, terribly aimed by Jewel's standards, bullet at Jewel. She dodged the bullet with ease and grace as she now sprinted at him and whirled her foot out, clipping his temple. He dropped to the ground. Stepping over the guard's unconscience body, Jewel walked over to the database, stuck a portable hardrive into a slot and began typing in codes and numbers.
After a couple of minutes, she was almost done with getting everything she needed . Take down the fire wall. Check. Shut off cameras. Check. Download needed files into the hardrive. Check. Delete everything else just to be a troll. Check.
Surprise eye scan?
Shit.
Jewel was too unprepared for that, although she knew she should have known better. Before she could blink or turn away, a beam of light went straight into her eye. A millisecond later the screen flashed red with "INTRUDER ALERT" blaring from sirens. Jewel looked around for an exit, spotting a different door than when she came in to her left. She grabbed the hardrive and took off.
The sound of the alarm still rang through her ears as she ran out of the long corridor. Jewel cursed under her breath, now they would find her any minute now.
"Silver Wolf, can you hear me?" Skye's voice buzzed through her earpiece.
"Loud and clear, Safe House."
"Good, do you have the objective?"
"Affirmative." Jewel stopped and took out the object that led her to this mission. It was the small hardrive, now filled with information about all of D.A.R.K.'s biggest and darkest secrets.
"There she is! Get her at all costs!" a group of guards burst behind her. Jewel placed the device back in her pocket and sprinted off to the exit she had planned to leave through. She ran as hard as she could, ducking when a bullet barely missed her head. There is was! The exit! She burst through the door only to be greeted by a large, buzzing, electric fence.' WHAT!? this isn't supposed to be here!' Jewel panicked.
"Trying to get somewhere, sweetheart?" Steel's icy voice sliced through the air. Jewel cleared her expression and changed it to to match his amused one.
"Actually I am. So if you wouldn't mind maybe turning that fence off. Id really appreciate it." Jewel said coolly.
Steel chuckled and shook his head, which made Jewel want to knock him out that much more. "Sorry, but not without that file. Either you can give to me and no-one gets hurt, or I'll be forced to take it the hard way. which will it be, sweetheart?"
Jewel growled and got in her fighting stance.
"Hard way it is. Boys! Get that file and show no mercy!" Steel yelled.
Guards came rushing at Jewel from all sides. The first few were no sweat, as she swung at necks and temples with ease. Never hitting hard enough to kill, but enough to knock them out cold. But it just seemed like more kept coming. She'd knock out one. Just for two to take his place. after 30 minutes or so, Jewel began to feel exhaustion seep into her body.
Finally a guard from behind struck her hard on her right side and felt it go across her to left hip, barely going underneath her vital stomach. but this was no strike, this was a sharp sudden stab. She began to feel warm blood trickle down her body.
Her ears picked up the light sound of something beating in the distance, Jewel gave a wicked grin. 'Just gotta hold out for a little longer...'
Jewel ignored the pain in her sides and the aching in her bones until she felt the wind pick up and loud chopping sound of air that signaled that her ride was here. She looked up to find a black helicopter swooping in on the scene, a long rope ladder descended downward.
Jewel sprinted her way over and gripped the ladder. she tugged on it and the ladder began to be pulled upward, towards safety.
The helicopter began to zoom away from Steel and his men, who were currently firing at Jewel, but missing epicly.
Jewel had a final chance to look back say something to Steel that he would remember forever. That would hang in the back of his mind as long as he lived. So she had to make this count. As she stood balancing on the ladder that was being lifted towards the inside the helicopter, Jewel chose the words she was going to say.
"Adios, mi Amigo!"
Nailed it.
She climbed into the inside of the helicopter to be greeted with helping hands pulling her onto one of the seats. She followed one of the hands up to their owner to be met by her best friend's goofy grin.
"Jewel that was so sick! How many guys did you take out? What was the inside like? How did-"
"Nero! that's enough questions right now, can't you see that shes hurt! She doesn't have the energy to answer!" Doc, their medic, scolded.
Nero immediately shut up and gave her an apologetic smile, while Doc came up to Jewel and started to assist to her wounds. He peeled up her now soaking black shirt to see fully the gash on her body while pulling out his medical kit. The adrenaline of th fight really helped Jewel then, but now that she was back to safety it was really starting to hurt.
"No. Doc, please Im fine! You dont have to do that." Jewel began, not wanting to be fussed over for her injury. She tried to squirm away, but you only have so much room in a helicopter.
"Yes I do, actually, it's my job. Now quit being like that and let me fix you up." Doc stated matter-of-factly.
Jewel gave a deep sigh of defeat and stopped moving. Allowing Doc to patch her up.
"Are you okay now? Is it okay to ask you questions now?" Nero asked innocently. His blue eyes full of concern and his blonde locks blowing around in the wind.
"Yes, my dear Nero. I will answer your questions before you explode from curiosity." Jewel said teasingly.
"Haha. You are so funny Jewel." Nero said drily. "As I was asking. How was the mission?" He looked down at Doc busy at work on her wound. "Besides getting shanked."
"It was fine, nothing I-" Jewel winced as Doc applied some iodine to disinfect to her huge cut.
"-Could'nt handle. Although I will say that y'all could have showed up a little earlier." Jewel said, still teasing her friend. So Jewel answered all of Nero's questions as they rode on home back to base. All th while Doc applying his medical skills to her.
Jewel and Nero walked into the base, Jewel leaning on Nero for some support. No one really paid them any attention. It wasn't a new sight to see them together, or Jewel hurt, for that matter. Although they did get the little 'are you okay?' every now and again. Jewel and Nero both just nodding and Jewel telling them not to worry, that she was fine.
"To your room?" Nero asked, wondering where he was supposed to take her probably.
"Nah, I gotta go give my report on the mission to Chief." Jewel felt her back pocket. "And the objective."
"Alright." He began to take her towards the Boardroom.
The Boardroom was a huge room filled with five huge screens that covered all but the back wall. In the center was a huge table that took up a majority of the space, and enough seats to sit a whole company.
Jewel stood leaning against the back of the biggest chair at the head of the table, alone. She faced the middle screen, which broadcasted the face of the head of D.A.R.K.'s main branch. They dealt with all of the official things that happened with D.A.R.K., they 'cleaned up' after D.A.R.K. finished with the 'dirty work.'
"Miss Reyes, Im pleased to hear the mission was a success, no?" He asked, his voice nothing but official.
"Yes Sir, and the objective is right here." Jewel replied, pulling out the hardrive.
"Perfect! Please insert it into our database and the information will be safe with us." Chief instructed.
"Oh! Let me get Skye to make sure there are no viruses that will be harmful." Jewel said, beginning to turn around.
"NO!" Chief barked, stopping Jewel. She turned back to him. He cleared his throat.
"That will be unnecessary Miss Reyes, but thank you for your concern. Now please," he looked nervous just for a second but then it vanished. "place the hardrive in the database."
'Jeez, is he touchy today or what?!" Jewel thought, doing as she was told.
"Thank you, now that that's over with. Were you seen or spotted on this mission?" Chief asked.
Jewel took a deep breath. Here comes the lecture. "Yes Sir, I was."
His face became hard. He clicked his tounge."Miss Reyes." He started. "How many times must we talk about this?"
Jewel remained silent and Chief continued.
"D.A.R.K. is the best of the best of the government's form of secret national government security. We handle of the governments most, tedious, affairs."
In other words we do all the work that the government thinks is too 'unpolitically correct' for them to do themselves.
"Your job, as an agent at D.A.R.K., is to follow through and make sure all of the missions we give to you are properly executed. My job ,at D.A.R.K., is once you are finished completing your mission to clear out and file all of your missions financially and officially."
I kill the people, you make it so they never existed. I steal the stuff, you say it was never there to begin with.
"And when you don't do your job right, like by being seen. It makes it very hard for me to do my job right. Understand?"
Jewel nodded.
"Good. You are dismissed."
Jewel turned and began to walk away.
"Oh yes! I almost forgot, agent Reyes!" Chief piped
"Yes Sir?"
"Make sure to pack your things, you leave tomorrow to Japan for your next mission!" He said nonchalantly.
What?! Japan! so many questions swirled through Jewels mind, but she pushed them back. "Yes Sir." and she walked away to her room.
Once in her room, Jewel packed up all of her things ready to leave the next day. What could be so important that they wanted to move her to Japan? Sure she had traveled lots of times before. From Brazil, where she was born and was first picked up into the program, to Spain, Mexico, and now here in America. She saved her questions for another time and tried to rest for the long journey ahead.
