*Four Hours Later*

I park my bike at a small remote coffee shop named Gero which is a half hour away from Sicel a small city town located near mountains and forests
where Quantico the meeting place is located. I take off my helmet while keeping the duffel bag strap across my shoulders. After dismounting the bike

I spit out my gum on the cement ground while leaving my helmet hanging on the left sidebar handle of my bike knowing no one is stupid enough to steal from me. I walk to the Gero putting the bike keys in my back pocket as I hear the little bell on the top of the door ding when I open it,

"Dean!" says Ian a nineteen year kid with short black hair and blue eyes surprised in romanian. I hiss when the stinging smell of different perfumes overwhelms my senses. "Hey" I grumble in romanian out irritated drumming my fingers against the sides of my legs knowing my sense of smell will be off for at least an hour then I notice people start to whisper while looking at me. Ian notices me drumming my fingers "The usual right?' I hear him ask quickly in romanian.

I nod not trusting myself to open my mouth without telling everyone staring at me to look away unless they want to lose their eyes not that ripping out their eyes would be a problem for me being late for the job on the other hand would be. *Ten minutes later* Ian comes out with my coffee and bag of muffins. I pay him the usual $12.40 giving him a short wave bye as he tells me "Bye". I push open the door ready to get the hell out of there as I feel the people in Gero's eyes on me.

"Stupid small towns" I mutter as I rip open the bag of muffins and take out a muffin and eat it in one bite then I mutter again annoyed "I am not a fucking animal so don't stare at me. This isn't a fucking zoo." I finish the rest of the muffins and take a couple of sips of my coffee as I walk to my bike. I take out another piece of gum tear of the wrapper, I crumple it up and throw it on the ground as I pop the new piece of gum in my mouth.

I put on my helmet back on and restart the bike.I let out a grin as I feel hear the bike roar to life and vibrate under me then I put my coffee in the cup holder. I start heading towards Sicel about half an hour later I get to Sicel as I make my way through the town I notice the town people staring at me and hear whispers "He's back" grumbles a guy annoyed. "There goes my chance at getting a date for the festival" whispers another guy under his breath irritated. I let out a smirk chewing my gum as I drive past a couple stores when I hear the last guy's words.

I wince as my ears start to ring when I hear some brown haired girl shriek in excitement in then she lets out sigh mutters excited "Dean...". I pick up my speed to Quantico trying to save my ears before the town girls start screaming like banshees. *Ten minutes later* I finally make it to Quantico but my ears are still ringing from the screams those so called girls but are probably disguised as banshees let out.

I drive to the parking lot and park my bike. I take my helmet off and turn off the bike. I get off the bike while readjusting my duffel bag so that the strap is now on my shoulders grab my coffee from the cup holder and head inside Quantico. I feel the ringing in my ears stop as I look at the mass of busy people bumping into one another.

I let out a small chuckle thinking "Not a chance in hell" then I do a finger whistle everyone instantly freezes looking at me. I ignore them all chewing my gum as I make my way to the elevator as I press the elevator button I hear them all stay to mutter to each wondering why I'm back. After a couple of seconds the elevator opens with a ding I walk in the empty elevator and press the button for the second floor.

The elevator closes and starts to move I lean against the elevator walls waiting for to stop. The elevator finally makes it to the seconds floor then opens. I walk out the elevator looking around the redesigned independent contractors' HQ . "Being the only contractor hired here does have it's perks" I think to myself as I look around and notice all the lockers are gone. I see a huge monitor in the middle of the room. "What the hell?" I mutter as it turns on then in big letters in black

"Hello Dean welcome" appears on the screen. My eyes flash silver-blue as I jump back hissing. "Enemy?" I think to myself ready to let out my claws and destroyed whatever this thing is. "Please step forward to confirm your identity to scan your retina" "Fucking Technology" I mutter relaxing and stepping forward when I realize it's a security system of sorts a small red beam scans my eyes. "Identity confirmed" says the monitor in black letters then the monitor says "initializing room."

My hearing picks up a metal creaking noise my eyes quickly look over to the metal wall which is where I hear the noise. The metal wall slides open and I see a locker pop out and a bench rises from a panel on the floor then I hear around the room multiple parts of the walls slide open. I look around my eyes widening surprised and in shock as I see a semi big flat screen computer pop up and chair rise from the floor.

My eyes light up excited as I see the rest of the portions of the wall pop up showing weapon holders. I grin thinking to myself "Time to restock on weapons' I look back the screen it saying in black letters "Technology analyst will install security procedure." "If they last they long" I think to myself smirking as I walk to the locker.

I notice a fingerprint scanner on the locker in front of me. I put my left hand on it as I take off my duffel bag and set down my coffee on the bench. The locker beeps and then opens I take off my leather jacket and hang it in the locker. I bend down and zip open the duffel bag I take out my ID badge and gun. I zip up the duffel bag closed and put it in the locker then I shut the locker closed with my right hand as I check that the gun's safety is on.

I left up the back of shirt and put the gun in the back of my jeans I pull my shirt back down over the gun to hide it. I put my ID in my pocket as I pull out my phone and text the dog "I've arrived." About a minute later "10th floor " appears on my phone. "Tech floor?" I think to myself curiously as I put my phone away grab my coffee from off the bench. I spit out my now tasteless gum in the trashcan near my locker then take a sip of my coffee as I walk back to the elevator.
