The two assassins made their way to Virginia on their motorcycles. Leaving very early, they made there around noon.

"Simmons has a gala later." Hunter held up their fake invitations. "Let's access the area."

Reaper and her male partner split off in different directions. She made sure to cover any and all escape routes on the south and west side of the building where the gala was going to be held. Hunter took care of the north and east sides. Once they had the area covered, they checked into a hotel.

"I will go buy our outfits for this evening. Come up with a way for us to get close to Simmons."

Hunter nodded and went to work on his laptop.

...

Reaper came back to the hotel two hours later.

"What took you so long?"

"Bought us the best of the best. It took a while to tailor."

"Oh let me see."

"We have to get ready anyway. Gala starts in an hour. Didn't you get us a ride?"

"Dan is ready when you are Shadow."

"You haven't called me that in a long time Silver."

They chuckled and got ready. Hunter pulled out the outfit Reaper had picked for him. It was a black tailored suit, a black button down and a black tie. Once he finished putting the suit on, he walked to his weapons case and pull out a black and silver cane. He twisted the handle and pulled upward revealing the katana hidden inside. He snapped it shut and grabbed a belt that had a knife hidden in the buckle.

While her male partner was changing, he looked at the outfit she picked for herself. It was a short red dress that fit snug against her body while showing off her curves. She pulled her now black hair into a low side bun and clipped it. In her clutch, she put her set of shurikens that were in a case that looked like a compact mirror, her smoke bombs that were in a mint container, her small comb with a separating knife and rather dangerous lip stick and lip gloss. Both were toxic to anything it touched.

They walked outside to the limo that was waiting for them.

"How you got here so quickly is beyond me."

Dan chuckled at the male assassin's statement and close the door behind them. The two assassins began discussing their plans for the night. Hunter seem to think that it would be best if his partner would 'seduce' Simmons and try and get some 'alone time' with him. This way he could rigger some traps as a distraction. While Reaper was not too happy with this plan, it would work the best. Besides Simmons was a perverted womanizer, so it would be easier to use that against him.

Their driver opened the limo door once they got to the gala. Hunter being the gentleman helped 'his lady' put of the limo. They presented their invitations to the hostess by the door and easily got through security. The duo linked arms and grabbed a drink off a waiters tray as he passed by.

"Hello there gorgeous. I couldn't help but notice your radiance from across the hall."

The 'couple' turned at saw the man of the hour. Brent Simmons. Reaper inwardly smirked.

"Oh my." She quickly blushed. "I never thought I'd see the man of the hour himself."

Hunter mentally smiled at his partner's acting skills. If he didn't know they were here to kill, he'd believe her acting.

"Brent Simmons at your service. May I ask your name?" He kissed her hand.

She giggled. "Patricia Williams and this is my business partner Jack Jägers."

"Lovely to meet you. What type of business do you run?"

"We build homes orphanages in many third world countries. Jack and I have build a few charities over the years to help with medical research as well."

"How inspiring."

"Patricia would you like a drink?" 'Jack' asked her.

"That would be great. Thank you Jack." She smiled at her partner.

Hunter walked to get some drinks and plant a few smoke bombs around the hall. He got two dry martinis and headed back to 'Patricia'. The assassin looked at where Reaper was standing and noticed Simmons try to grope her. He try not to break the drinks in his hand.

"Here you go." 'Jack' smiled and handed over the drinks.

Brent forced a smile in Jack's direction while trying to figure out how to get the beautiful woman for himself. Oh the things he wants to do to her. Luckily for Simmons his female acquaintance walked up to the trio.

"Mr. Simmons. Nice to see you again." She turned to 'Jack' and gave a flirtatious smile. "Hello handsome. What's your name?"

"Jack Jägers ma'am. You look lovely tonight."

"Jack why don't you share some of your adventures. I'm sure the pretty lady would love to hear some."

"Of course." 'Jack' held out his arm. "Shall we?"

The woman blushed and grabbed his arm. They walked over to a table and began chatting. Brent inwardly smirked.

"I'd like to show you something gorgeous. If you don't mind."

"What is it?"

Simmons wrapped his arm around her waist dangerously close to her behind. Reaper was doing everything in her power not to strangle him in front of everyone. He led her to a private room in the back that was guarded with one bodyguard. The guard made eye contact with Simmons before leaving. The female assassin playing the clueless damsel gave Brent a questioning look. He just smiled at lead her inside.

'You will be mine tonight Gorgeous.'

Update! Finally. Sorry it took so long. This may be confusing to some people but Reaper changes her appearance a lot. It is part of the reason why SHIELD can't find her. But more on that later. Sorry for the crappy flirting. Clearly romance isn't my thing. Hope you enjoyed.

Til next time,
