Spy AU, because why not?

Most people's words were shared. As soon as they appeared, people proudly paraded them around. Written in their soul mate's handwriting, it was like their compass for their life's companion.

Ally used to do that.

Now she can't.

It was dangerous, a liability, to have someone know her words now. Her profession sparked the anger of many, and if someone found out her mark, they could use it against her.

Which was why right now she was applying layers and layers of foundation, and setting it with equal amounts of powder. It needed to be enough so that the black script on the inside of her wrist was gone.

Make me.

A faint beep alerted her of an incoming message. She reached up to her ear and tapped her com. "Hello?"

"Car is by 47th. I hope you looked over the details."

"I've memorized them. I'll contact you when I'm done."

Information extraction at one of the most highly guarded places in the world?

She adjusted her bracelets, a disguised weapon which could shoot bits that would electrically shock people, and went out the door.

They should have assigned a new agent for this.

Easy peasy, as his best friend would say.

If only Dez knew what he did for a living.

Austin was whistled smugly as his gadget unlocked the safe. Beside him was the owner of the safe, unconscious thanks to another useful tool.

"Easy peasy."

Getting past the security took less time than it usually did. Usually, she would quietly stun the security with her bracelets, and continue on her way. Cameras were usually already disabled by the tech force of her organization. Get in, grab the file, and get out.

This time, it was too easy. All the guards were down. Her path was way too smooth. Of course, with a sinking feeling, she figured it out before she even got to the room.

There was already someone else there.

It was another spy, agent, or whatever you wanted to call it. He was not far from her age, with blond hair and if her eyes weren't tricking her, a lot of gadgets on him.

And he was going to get away with her file.

With his back turned to her, she made her move. He turned around just in time to block her punch.

This is going to be harder than I thought.

He struck back with trained efficiency, and she retreated and reciprocated. They traded blows back and forth, but they couldn't overcome one another. Both of them were highly trained, and armed with perfected reflexes.

Eventually, Ally feinted to the right. He went to deflect the nonexistent jab and that's when she made her move. Ally quickly swung out her leg, and the other spy toppled back. She finally had her advantage. Ally reached into her belt and aimed her stun gun at him. His eyes were wide as he became aware of his predicament. Inwardly, Ally smirked.

"Give me it."

"Make me." He smiled impishly, eyes holding a mischievous glint.

She was about to retort, but the exact words he uttered echoed in her mind.

Make me.

A flurry of emotions passed through her face. Shock, confusion, and disbelief. "Show me your wrist."

This is the worst way to find out.

"What?"

"Your wrist! Lift up your sleeve."

A few beats passed before his realization mirrored hers. "That's where my…wait, you said! You said the words!" His eyes traveled to the file, then her stun gun. "Well, this is awkward."

"Yeah. See you later." A charge of electricity struck him, and his body met the floor. She picked up the file and dusted it off. "Soulmate or not, I always finish my job."

When Austin came to, he found a note with a number on it. A few more words were underneath it.

No hard feelings, it's just business. Give me a call, hopefully when I'm off the job.

He peeled back his sleeve and compared the handwriting. "Exactly the same." He murmured. He glanced back at the empty safe. "And she made me fail a mission."

Thanks for reading and all your support! You guys seem to like the soul mate words idea, so I'm continuing this!

Let me know any other AU ideas or ideas in general of how they could meet ;)
