Chapter 1
It was a clear moonlit night in Viridian City. A gentle breeze blew in the town echoing up through the sky skyscrapers and blowing back the hair of a lone agent perched high above the bustling streets. Her whole body was motionless, save for her brown-cat like eyes that scanned the skyline. Through her night-vision goggles she could see her final destination only about two building rooftops away. Lucky for her, the building tops were fairly flat and she wouldn't have to do things the hard way. She reached for her utility belt when suddenly...
*BEEP**BEEP**BEEP*
She froze, the whole canyon of buildings rumbled with the sound of the small little beeper.
"Damn it, why don't you just tell the whole world where I am positioned?"
She fumbled through her fanny pack trying to find the small little object that had caused her so much grief. After what seemed like forever, she found it and tired to check who in the hell had beeped her, of all times, on one of her most important missions ever. She half expected it to be her pesky administrator, Sherry Austin, paging her over some trivial manner that could have been easily rectified if Sherry wasn't so incompetent. She smiled in half amusement, but her smile turned to a frown when she found out the real reason she had been paged.
*Message Text*
Message 4574
To: All Viridian Based Rocket Agents
From: The Boss
Back To Base.
Immediately.
Though the message was short and curt she understood. All Rockets understood. A recall message from the Boss usually meant there was trouble. However, this message was recall of all personal and obviously this was of the utmost urgency.
She turned around and walked to the other side of the building. Once on the other side she took out a gun like object and aimed at the other building. Surprisingly, there was only a slight pop as a hook latched on to the other building ledge. The hook was attached to a rope that was now suspended between the two buildings. She then clicked a metal safety clasp to the rope, and with her back facing the ground, she pulled herself effortlessly along the rope. Once across the rope, she went to the other side and did this again for the next gap. She kept doing this until she reached a building marked "Viridian Textile Factory." She walked swiftly towards a door only marked with a small red R. About three yards away from the door she stopped....
Something didn't feel right...
Someone was watching her....
She sunk down behind a crumbling smokestack and waited for the assailant to show himself.
"Leiko," a soft voice echoed amongst the smokestacks and rubble.
"Leiko," the voice came from another direction but was louder, but just as sweet as the last time, almost as if it was teasing her. The voice repeated her name over and over again each time from a different direction and each time getting louder. But Leiko just crouched there waiting for her stalker to come to her. She knew that voice all to well. After a couple moments, the owner of the voice landed in front of Leiko. Leiko drew herself up to her full height to face to face with her follower. It was almost as if she was looking into a mirror, for every feature on her matched Leiko's exactly save for the deadly smirk on her twin's face.
"So we meet again Leiko. It's been a while."
"Not long enough. I thought you were gone for good. I didn't think you were that foolish to return here. Hardly any traitors escape from the team alive." Leiko was now the one with the smirk on her face. Leiko loved to taunt her younger sister of five minutes, which was much more emotional and irrational. Lena usually made quick, rash decisions, which cost her dearly especially in her line of work.
"You know very well why I'm here. Revenge is a dish best served cold."
"If you mean get me back for killing him there's no need. You know as well as I that you and Daray were failures as well as traitors."
"Enough stalling, its time you paid for your crime!" Lena exclaimed as she threw a punch. Missing her target, she threw another and another. But Leiko just dodged it by moving from side to side.
"Flailing will get you no where," Leiko remarked as she simply kneed Lena in the stomach.
"Damn you...." Lena gasped clutching her stomach as she gasped for air, "but I will not go down that easy." Lena charged at Leiko like a tiger, teeth clenched, eyes flashing with fury. Lena was fast but Leiko was faster. Leiko leaped effortlessly out of the way sending Lena flying into a pile of rubble.
"There you go again letting your rage blind you. I really thought you would be more of a challenge. You're pathetic. "
"Shut up you arrogant wench," Lena cried, punching blindly in the air. Amazingly one of her punches connected with Leiko sending a trickle of blood out of her mouth. Lena used this opportunity and kicked Leiko of balance and pinned her to the ground.
"Well Leiko," Lena grinned as she sat on Leiko's back, "the tables have turned." Lena took out a knife and held it inches away Leiko's throat,
"And now I will finally have my revenge."
Author Notes: Ok- That was part one revised. Its pretty much the same from the original except I spelled checked and changed some details. Expect a major change in the next part because my writers block concerning this story has been finally lifted.
~eek!~
