Note: thanks Dragon Fly for noticing my mistake in the last chapter. I will try to fix that problem in this chapter. Also, sorry for the delay, it's just I have been busy with school, (along with laziness) to update this fics in time.

"I repeat again…where is the cargo?" the inquirer asked as he jammed the front barrel of the gun to the man's head. "Don't make asked again." He said again, this time his patience wearing thin.
"I swear to God! I don't know what you are talking about!" the frightened man replied. "This is only a civilian merchant ship, there's no cargo that you're looking for here!"
"Don't fucking lie to me you piece of shit!" John yelled as he cocked the weapon. "I know for sure the cargo was shipped on this ship. Box number AM-01. Ring any bell?"
The interrogated man's brain suddenly went into working mode. "Y-yes, I remember that name." The man shakily replied.
"Good. I'm glad that you remember…now I asked again, where is the cargo."
"Ok! Ok! I'll tell you!" the man replied. "I-if you go down the staircase on to your right, travel down 2 floors, turn left, then you will get to the cargo."
"Why thank you. Now that wasn't so hard was it?" the man asked.
"No-no… so since I told you what you needed. You're going to let me go right?"
"That's right." John replied as he released the grip on the man's head. "You did tell you what I needed. Now get out of here…but I do trust you not to tell anyone about this?"
"N-no…" the man shakily replied. "I won't tell anyone."
"Excellent. Now, get out of here before I change my mind." John ordered the frightened man. With nothing said, the man hastily ran off. As he traveled 10 meters away from the captor, John raised his gun and aim it at the fleeing man. "Now, I said I let him go, but I never said for how long." He said and then pulled the trigger.

Exact location unknown.
Walking slowly to his office, the man's mere prescience bring an aura to the people around him. Arriving at the office, he was greeted by the beautiful doctor.
"Afternoon, sir." The doc commented, it seems that she is now in a very enlighten mood.
"You too, doctor." The officer replied. "Do you have reports for me doctor?" he asked the woman.
"Yes, sir." The lady replied as she handed her boss the files. "As you can see sir, Agent 47 has successfully completed his mission. The intended target, Mr. Romanov died from poison, sir."
"Very good. As I had told you doctor, having Agent 47 sent onto his first mission wasn't going to be as bad as you thought it was going to be." The officer said, "In the report you gave me, there was no inclination of any trouble."
"Actually sir, there was one slight problem that he had encounter." The doctor remarked.
"Problem? What is this problem you are talking about doctor? Would you please share it to me?" the commander asked.
"Well sir, I know that you will not like the in formations that I am about to tell you." She said as the she handed to him another file. "Well it seems, during the mission, part of 47's glove were torn. And we might think that his fingerprints were at the scene of the crime."
"FINGERPRINTS!" the man yelled as he slammed his fists onto the desk. "Fingerprints! How the hell did 47 were able to left his fingerprints. It's the main thing we taught him at the beginning of the training, there's no way that should have happened!"
"I know sir… but I think this will not hinders our plans very much." The doctor said weakly, scared of what would happened to her if the commander get any madder.
"Hmm. It better not, or your life is on the line. Are we clear on that doctor?" the man questioned.
"Crystal clear, sir." The beautiful lady replied.
"Have you at least try to erase all of 47's fingerprints at the hotel?" the commander asked the doctor again.
"Unfortunately, no sir." She answered. "We tried to send some of the men to do the job, but with all the things going on, our men couldn't enter the building undetected."
Upon hearing this, the man mood darkened. He was not indeed happy. If the origin and identify of 47 is found out, there's no say to what would happened to the scenario. Everything he had worked and plan out for may be lay to waste because of this incident. He decided to change the subject.
"What about 47 doctor? What is he doing right now?" he asked.
"After finishing the mission, I have sent him to resume his training." She replied. "He is now on the rifle simulations program. Do you want to watch?"
"No." he replied. "I don't think it will be necessary doctor. I think your job here is done, you can leave now." Hearing this, the doctor walked out of the man's view, going to the abyss that is her lab.

Nerv Headquarter
Deep into the corridors of Nerv's command center, stood two figures in a dark room debating over the events that had just taken place.
"I take it you have heard what just happen, Gendo?" Professor Futyutsuki asked his old student.
"Yes I have heard." He replied. "What is indicate in the report is very interesting indeed. It seems someone have stage an assassination on our dear "friend", Mr. Romanov."
"Yes, if by "interesting" you mean beneficial to our plan, then yes. Who would have thought that one of greatest rivals are taken out of the picture. You and I surely know how well this is going to help us. Since Romanov is out of the pictures, Seele's intelligence capability is cut in half." The professor said.
"You may think Romanov's death may be a good think professor, but I do not agree with you on that." Gendo remarked, with his hands still covering those eyes of his.
"Oh?" the professor pondered. "Care to share with me you institutions?"
"Think about it professor, think what will happened to us if Seele assumed that Nerv was responsible for the assassination. That would give the old men excuses for a pre-emptive strike toward us." The commander said. "And you and I both know we cannot win against an all out war with them. The loss of Unit-1's pilot has hindered our fighting capability greatly. Not only that, the 2nd child's mental stability are not very good either. So tell me professor, do think Romanov's death is a good thing now?"
"No…" Fuyutsuki replied. "But Gendo, do you think this Seele's doing?"
"It could be possibility." He replied. "It all makes sense, for the last 2 month, our defense budget have been drastically drop. On top of that, the 3rd child is missing; so therefore Unit-01 out of commission. And now, the assassination of Romanov is the last piece of the puzzle. Those stupid old men now have a "legitimate" reason to launch a full-scale attack on Nerv.. Things couldn't have been worse Fuyutsuki sensei."
"Yes, it could have been worse." The old man replied. "But Gendo, there could be another piece of the puzzle."
"Oh?" Gendo pondered, what ever the sensei was about to say was very interesting to him.
"Yes, this could have been the doing of a 3rd party. They're probably planning all this to trick both Seele and us into a war. But…there's seemed to be many possibilities at this point. We cannot exactly know what is going on here. We could only wait for whatever horrific events are going to come. "
I think this will be all for this chapter. I will continue to add more later in the future. Be sure to review! _Daelus
