A/N: After a long while, I'm here updating once again. I'm sorry for the long wait but I lost the inspiration for this story. But last week I had this awesome plot twist for it, that I'm all eager to write it down.
You can also note my writing style have changed as well so I decide to go back to the first chapter and rewrite but that will be another day, not today. I'll notify you when it is done but for now enjoy this chapter.
Monday -00:23-
A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, lighting his way for only a split second but is enough to light up the two-engine heavy lift helicopter with a loading ramp flying through the heavy rain. Its sound echoing in the heavens– startling a young raven boy aboard said helicopter.
The boy sighed in relief– knowing they were out of danger for now."That was way too close for my taste." He still didn't approve the idea to go to a mission in the middle frigging of a thunderstorm. Who is crazy enough to do something like that? Well for what it seems– he leader was.
Beside him, sitting comfortably– was a light-haired man who laughed seeing his friend's scared face. The expression was priceless. "Don't tell me you're scared of some light,Sogeking."
The raven boy twists himself to glare dagger at his comrade in show of defiance."As if you aren't scared," he returned– still glaring him. "Kuro Ashi." He almost– almost, call him by his real name. They're already in enemy territory; he couldn't let something as their name slip out. The last time he did such mistake– it almost costs the team's lives. That alone was a scary experience, but he has learned his lesson.
The blonde-haired man chuckled, taking a long drag of his stick cancer and releasing the smoke into the air. "Not to thunderbolt, though." He had to admit it; this missing have him unnerved. They were going to infiltrate one of the government's top facility– noting they have done before.
"So you're scared!"
A green-haired man, who has been hearing the conversation from the beginning, snorted. "I knew you were a coward."
Knowing the insult was directed to him, the blonde flicks his gaze from the young boy to the man across from him, narrowing his eyes. "Shut it, Kaizoku Gari."
The scarred man laughed harder and stared the man who last address him; a sadist smirks playing on his lips. "Heh, did I hit a nerve? Kuro Ashi," he further mocks; enjoying it all.
The blonde man growled and folded his arm– still not moving his gazes from the green-haired man. "You wish." He wanted to give a 'proper' return but he knows it isn't a good idea for the moment for it.
As if reading his though, the green-haired man grunts in response and flicks his gazes to stare through the window into the dark, rainy night– signalling the end of their small discussion.
The raven boys sigh wearily; flicking his gazes to watch how the rainfall outside– yet again.
Across from him, a black-haired woman flicks his gaze from the book she was reading to the cockpit door. "Dorobo-san has yet returned," she wondered out loud– catching the others' attention and breaking the eerie silence. "I wonder is something is wrong." Isn't as she doubted her skill; she only wanted to break this unease silence has fallen over them.
The green-haired man shook his head in disapproval. "I doubt it. She most be giving the last coordinates, that is all."
The women hummed in responses; deep in though.
As is being called, the cockpit door open and through it came an orange-haired girl along with a small walking reindeer.
The girl nods toward the reindeer's way and the small reindeer trots to the back of the helicopter; pushing a button on the floor close to the back wall and stepping back.
Sounds echoed through the cabin as a screen slid from the floor; turning on and showing a map with a headline reading 'Enies Lobby'.
The redhead girl walked toward the screen and stood at its side; her long wavy hair held up in a high ponytail. "Okay, guys! This is our destination," she states the obvious while signaling at the map. "As you can note I– along with Arche, have divided the building into section and named them by letters. We're going in on pairs and each group have different mission– so no failure is accepted."
The green-haired man snorted. "As if we ever failed any of our past jobs." It wasn't a lie. They haven't failed not even once in their mission. There was only one mission who they almost– almost, fail it but yet they manages to fulfil it.
"Akuma-san is you're kind enough," the redhead girl address to the raven woman with a kind smile.
The woman nods. "Of course," she crosses her arms, copy of them appearing closes to her comrades; handing them the folders containing all the information needed. "As always, in there is the information you need to know, the mission you got, your partner and the section you should investigate."
The redhead nods. "According to your mission; you should go well prepared. After all, we are intruding one of the most secured facility of the government."
The blonde-haired man chuckled. "I'm going to enjoy their faces seen us there; their enemy so close yet they are unable to stop us. That will be priceless."
The raven boy nods slowly. "Maybe isn't going to be a tough mission at all."
The redhead girl shrugged. "Who knows..." It all depends of their ability. If the plan goes according as the girl have planned– it will be an easy mission. If not, bad stuff will happen. But something tells her everything will go according to the plan. "But remember the top priority of our mission are; gain information, the last develop armament, render their security system, delete any file involving us, and the more important ones–" she smiles and stick out her tongue in a playful manner. "–Cause a ruckus and have a lot of fun. The weather is on our side."
Monday -5:04-
A groaning Luffy walked beside her brother to the chief's office. She wore the regular black full-body suit– the only different it only reached her mid thigh and black combat boots with her hair held in a high pony tail, her straw hat resting on her back. "Couldn't they call others than us?" Beside her, Sabo– for an unknown reason, was still wearing the same clothes as before. She has her suspicion he stayed all night getting up to date of the agency's movements.
"We're the top agent and it seems an attack occurred to one of the government's facility."
Luffy looked perplex at him. "Someone actually has the balls to attack a government facility?!" she exclaim in disbelief not believing his words at all. From the long time she has been working along the government, she has never heard someone attack them directly. The only time was back then. But that has been over fifteen years ago, already.
"And not any one– the Enies Lobby, precisely."
"...They most be dumb."
Sabo chuckled at her comment. "More like crazy– like always."
Confusion filled Luffy as she gazes at his way– waving at some people they passed through as they greet them. "What do you mean?"
Sabo stared ahead of him, deep in thought. "It was their doing, after all."
Luffy's eyes widen in disbelief. "It can't be..." Only one group he could be referring but she doubted they were THAT crazy to attack them directly.
Sabo nodded. "This is their doing– the group known as 'The Pirates' have struck once again."
A/N: This is very short, I know but is an update. I'm still getting the hang of writing this 'agent' style story. But I like the results. I will be away for a week or so, so no update from me for the time being, however, since I'm very pumped with this story and Everything Begins on School along with Is this the future or the past? and Pirates Warriors , I plan to update them at the same time since most of the chapters are written down.
About A mysterious relationship and The time to reunite has arrived well unknown when I'm going to update them. 'till next time and don't forget to review.
