Thanks for the reviews already!

Klee.v: I honestly am not so sure right now, I had plans for her to both meet the Cullens or the Volturi first and not sure which plan I like better. I don't want to spoil anything but Alec, Demetri and 298 are going to officially meet later in the story. Although they might cross paths a few times earlier ;)

Nahanna: Thank You! Was she born a sociopath or just a girl with an unfortunate upbringing...Idk? You'll have to wait and see :)

polly2010: Thank you for the review!

It's ironic how the place I feel the most safe is also the place that I've experienced the most pain. However it's not that surprising, pain is such a frequent feeling for me that it almost seems comforting.

I have spent my whole life in the training area, at first getting beat up and eventually, beating other people up. The all too familiar sweat and blood smell and the sickening crack of bones along with the owner's agonizing scream somehow relaxes me. It makes me feel safe because it reminds me of what I've been through, and it's my past that grants me the ability to protect myself. No one can hurt me now. I ignore the new recruits as I make my way to my dorm. Unlike most of the recruits, I was raised here, being taught how to fight before knowing the all the letters in the alphabet. As a result, fighting is like second nature to me. Being here so early also strengthens my place in the Shadow Government, I know almost everyone and everyone knows me, the girl who was born to kill.

My dorm is not fancy, nor is it cozy. You'd think after living in the same room for 16 years I would have done something to make it more personal. So far, the only indication that this room belongs to me are the 23 little lines on the metal wall in far left bottom corner that I scratched on a long time ago. Each line represents a single life I took. However the idea just became ridiculous to me after I turned 8 because some later missions required killing hundreds and thousands of people at the same time so there is no way to keep track, and also because I just stopped caring. I'd like to think I was not born to be such a heartless monster, that I can be compassionate and kind. However when you realize that being kind is not going to save your ass when someone puts a gun to your head, your entire perspective changes. Kill or be killed, that's always been the rule here.

'Home sweet home aye?' An all too familiar voice interrupt my thoughts. I turn around to face the owner to the voice that I haven't seen in 10 months. 259 is leaning on the frame of my door, her arms crossed and a broad smile on her face.

'Good to know you are still alive, sis.' She is not really my sister, in fact, close attachment between the agents are strictly prohibited which is why we only use the term when no one is around. However, she is just like a sister to me, well what I imagine a sister is supposed to be like. It all started when we were assigned an undercover mission and had to play the role of sisters. I was 6 at the time and she was 8, our targets were the lovely couple that made the mistake of adopting us. 259 played the role well, caring for me and protecting me, leaving others no doubt that we are really sisters. Like the recent case with David, it was also a very long mission, almost a whole year of us going undercover as two innocent orphan sisters. That mission was one of my most memorable ones, not only because it was my first mission, but because our adoptive parents cared for us well and that along with my sister's act, I almost believed that I had a loving family. 259 had to drag me out of the house the night we were told to leak the gas because I had forgotten about the mission. The days after that I was traumatized, it actually felt like I did lost my entire family despite the fact that the whole thing was an act and I was supposed to kill them. Yet I couldn't forget the way they made me feel: safe, loved and accepted. Losing them was bad enough, but being the cause of losing them is a lot worse.

That mission changed things for me. The next time I ran into 259 was at training, she was still protective of me just like a sister although the mission was finished, helping me in the unfair fights against boys twice my size. Ever since then, there was an unspoken sister bond between us that none of us wants to wipe away. I guess we just both crave that momentary feeling of having a family.

The mission also changed me, I recognize that becoming too attached to the victim is only going to hurt me. There is no way for the Shadow Government to cancel a mission just because a mere agent is emotionally attached to them. So what is the best thing you can do that save trouble for everyone? Don't use real emotions and don't become attached.

'I was worried you know, a 10 month mission.' She takes a seat next to me on the bed. We all know she's thinking about our first mission.

'I was young and weak back then.' I defend. It's true though, I did not choke once during this mission.

'How was it by the way? Did you...'She let her question trail off.

'No, I did not become attached to David at all. He was the target all along and I know better than actually letting myself fall for him.' I quickly answer her question. She give me a brittle smile and let out a small sigh.

'I don't know what's worse, feeling too much or feeling too little.' I raise my eyebrow at her, don't you dare say it. 'Is it really that bad to just care for once?' I quickly cover her mouth with my hand, afraid of what she will blab out next. She looks down, shoulders slump, hinting me that she's given up with whatever she was implying. I carefully put my hand down.

'What was your latest mission?' I ask her warily. She widens her eyes, contemplating whether or not to actually tell me.

'You know it's against the rules to talk too much about your mission to people who are not directly involved in it.' Pathetic excuse.

'Don't give me that bullshit, it didn't stop you from asking about my mission.' I pause for a moment before continuing in a much lower but dangerous tone.

'In that case, who was your latest mission?' Realizing that I'm onto something, she finally decides to spill.

'I was assigned to a mission in Italy, where I met this guy. He was not involved in the mission at all so I didn't have to worry about killing him.' That's at least a little bit better than falling in love with the person you have to kill. She glance at my face and decide to continue after seeing my neutral expression. 'He was beautiful, inhumanly beautiful.'

'And they say it's the personality that counts.' I tease her inability to find a better description. She give me funny look.

'Wow, marriage changed you.'She bit back. I immediately shut up, waiting for her to continue. 'Before you rudely accused me of being shallow, I was just about to say how he's also charming and funny. I have never felt that way about anyone before.' She pause before staring at me right in the eye, letting the danger of the situation settle in for both of us. 'And i'm scared.'

A knock on the door interrupts our conversation, we immediately re position ourselves, all evidence of emotion gone from 259's eyes.

'Come in.'

'259, 298 you two are requested to meet with Harrison in his office regarding your new mission.' The man announces before exiting the room.

'Well, you heard him. Let's go.' I motion for her to exit the room. She roll her eyes at me before adding a sarcastic remark.

'I wonder who's going to die now.'

'Both of you, have a seat.' Harrison orders without looking up from the computer. 259 and I wordlessly sit down. '259, do you remember your latest mission in Florence, Italy?'

'Yes, sir.'

'Well it's not officially finished, we just received reports today that the government official you assassinated, Peter, was not alone. In fact, he's only the puppet. Since you went undercover as the assistant for the daughter of Anderson Marinucci, the owner of all the Marinucci corporate, we have decided to assign you a partner to make the identity more believable.' Harrison turns to me. '298.'

'Yes sir.'

'Your cover for this mission is Angelina Marinucci. The daughter of the multi-billionare Anderson Marinucci. 259, also known as Georgia in this mission, will be your assistant and your field partner and you will assist her of finding out who was helping Peter. Now some brief information about you, you are 21 year old and is spoilt from your family's wealth. Your first language is Italian but you can speak little English here and there.'

'Yes sir.'

'You two will be leaving tomorrow, I will send the files containing the details. You are dismissed.'

As we leave the room, I notice 259's dramatic improvement in her mood. A part of me worries about this mysterious guy, who is he, and how did he manage to capture her heart so quickly. Something the Shadow Government has been successful at preventing for almost 16 years. All I know is that if he somehow hurts her, directly or non-directly. Physically or emotionally. I will kill him.

Vampires are known for their beauty, and with that beauty comes a lot of admiration from the humans. The Volturi does not interfere with how the vampires, typically male ones, make a use of their charm. As long as they don't break the law and clean after themselves, no one gets hurt. Heck, even their own Demetri is known for being a casanova of life, breaking female vampires' hearts and female humans' necks. However this nomad vampire has been stiring up quite some trouble, which means the Volturi has no choice but to intervene.

'He does not know how to keep a low profile, almost everyone's been talking about the mysterious, handsome stranger that somehow is associated with quite a few females that have gone missing. Even the police are on it.' Aro explains this information to his beloved guards 'He's located in Florence and I want him... contained.' he continues while giving Jane a knowing look. Jane immediately understands, on the way out, stops Demetri and Felix.

'Aro wants him dead.' She announces stiffly. Demetri and Felix did not look convinced.

'What? I thought we just had to warn him. He did not openly break any law.' Demetri argues.

'Wouldn't it look bad on the Volturi if we eliminate him without a valid reason.' Felix defends.

Jane is not happy about being doubt, and she makes it clear by the glare she is giving the two, silently threatening to using her power at any given second now. 'Aro's decisions are being watched, that's why you kill him on a low profile.' Jane hisses 'are you two hesitant about killing him because you two and him share similar activities? Let this be a warning for the both of you then.' She sees Alec join them and turns to face him, voice softening: 'Do you mind joining this mission and keep an eye on Demetri and Felix, it's easier for you to blend in with those two than me.'

'Of course, sister.'
