It was 3:00 in the morning. Everything outside was still, and quite. There was no moon tonight, so no light was cast down on the dark shadow that moved along the streets at a quick pace.
The figure, was Kagome, a great assassin. She had received a call early that morning saying she needed to come to head-quarters, that they had a new assignment, and they needed her. More info was to be given when she arrived.
She moved quickly, stealthily, and quite. She ran down the streets and alleys, to avoid being seen by cars that might be traveling down the road. She also stayed clear of street-lights. Soon She was at the head-quarters.
She slowed her pace and walked up to the metal gates.
"Who goes there?" questioned one of the guards. He was new here, and did not know everybody.
"Kagome Higurashi, Dark Assassin." she stated calmly. As she watched the guard flip through the list of people who were allowed in she grew impatient.
'Why can't they hire smart and quick people she thought?' as she eyed the 19 year old boy.
"Oh! Yes you may go in." with that he spoke into his speaker, telling them to open the gates for Kagome.
They swung open and she walked up the dirt path. It began to pour, and thunder boomed, lighting flashed. But it did not scare her. She welcomed it, She found it gave her a clam feeling.
The path became muddy, so she began to walk on the grass.
Finally she reached the huge oak doors that lead inside. She turned the knob, and pushed. It swung open revealing the secret society to the outdoors.
From out side it looked like an ordinary mansion. But inside it was not. It had a cement flooring, and metal walls, with dimly lit lights. Cameras were placed at every corner, as were circular mirrors. There were stairs several yards from the door, that led up, to where the master, in charge of the whole place was.
She began walking toward them, ignoring the people that greeted her. She just walked past.
She reached the stairs and began to climb up. It was a long climb, but she got there.
At the top were 3 long hallways. One going left, another right, and one in the center. The center one was where she would find her master.
She walked quickly down the hallway, past the several doors to the sides of her. And reached the door at the end. On it was a golden plaque. It Read: "Master Shinsai." She let out a sigh and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" yelled a Muffled voice, through the thick oak doors. She opened them and stepped inside the room. In The Middle was a Desk, where her Master sat. and lining the room were cabnits filled with important documents, above those were pictures of the greatest assassin's that worked there. Hers was up, it had been up after her first assassination. It was also the hardest, as her Master had put it. That's why it was put up so quick.
"Ah, Kagome. I'm glad you could make it!" Said master Shinsai. "You Have been with us for 3 years now, correct?"
"Yes, Master Shinsai." she said nodding her head.
"Well Over the Years we have been giving you simple assassinations. But this next job is pretty hard. And so we want our best assassinator to take it." He stated smiling proudly
Kagome blushed, at being called great. It gave her a great feeling. All her Life she felt nothing near great, never called great. Now that she was in this business, it was a word she heard often.
"What is the Job?" she asked, looking at him. She was glad he was giving it to her, and so she didn't care how hard it was, just as long as she got it.
"Well, it's going to be a triple kill." he said, holding up 3 fingers. "They are some of the richest, and powerful people in this country, and we need and want to take them out." he said.
Kagome was a little confused. She only assassinated, she didn't care about the government. She didn't even watch the news. She only practiced her techniques and killed.
"Who are the 3?" she inquired.
"Ah!" he said. He walked over to one of the filing cabnits and flipped through the brightly colored folder's for a few minutes, muttering to himself before he found the right one. He pulled out a blue folder and flipped it open to search through it. He pulled out a few items, replaced the folder and walked back over to the desk.
"These 3." he said throwing down some pictures, and bios of each one. She stood up out of her seat and walked closer to the desk so she could get some information about them. There were 2 men around the ages of 21, and a woman around the age of 20. 2 of them were married to each other, the other was a close friend who lived with them. They lived a good 500 miles or so from where she was. But that was not a problem. Nothing was a problem for her.
"Miroku, Inu-yasha, and Sango." her Master said as she kept reading the bios.
"Do you think you can handle them, Kagome?" he said.
"Of course. But how should I get there?" she questioned as she stood up.
"That has been arranged. We knew you Would Take the Assignment, so we hired a private jet. But one of our own men will be flying you." he stated. He clamped a heavy hand on her shoulder.
She turned her head to look at it. It was a big, but gentle hand, it was soft and withery. She turned back to face her master, and that's when she realized how old he truly was, probably in his mid 60's. He had a warm smile on his face.
"When do you want me to leave?" she asked.
"That's the thing. They are going to be throwing a party for an occasion that we could not find out. But that means they will all be in the same room." he continued. "The Party is in 3 weeks, so for the first 2 we need you to practice hard, then 4 days before the party you leave. You understand?" he asked. He knew it was a difficult task, that was why he gave it to her, but he still worried, for she was the youngest, of age, 20 years old. Others at this company were 28 and above.
"Don't worry, I understand, And I will not fail you she said. And with that she turned around and left the room.
