CHAPTER 3- KILLERS CLOSE IN

"Damn it, DAMN IT" 47 cursed out a loud, he had been searching for a file Cameron had given him concerning a local mob boss, he still had a whole pile of research to do on many other mafia individuals in the neighborhood but he hadn't made a start yet because he was still searching for the same missing file.

"Where in the hell did I put the goddamn thing?" He cursed once more throwing aside another bunch of folders.

"Ohhhhh Christ". He paused suddenly, "I must've left it at Cameron's office", "Well" He thought to himself "At least it's an excuse to go out again". Quickly 47 called Cameron, asked him to prepare the file, put on his suit once more, grabbed a tomato from out of the fridge and left the villa.

Stepping out of a cool shower Christie wrapped a robe around herself and stepped out of the bathroom moving into her bedroom. Lately she had started using a gym built into one of the lower levels of the building which housed the law firm which Cameron owned and run. Members of the public were theoretically viable to gain membership to the gym but in truth the only people outside of the law firm that ever got membership were those who had some other connection to Cameron, in this case Christie was a longtime friend of Cameron so she easily got a membership and despite the gym's immense size and range of equipment barely anyone who actually worked at the law firm used it so Christie often found she was able to work out for hours without any interruptions. After getting dressed Christie stepped out onto her balcony to close and lock the French doors, then suddenly out of the corner of her eye she noticed someone familiar, "My god, is that..it is..it's him again" Christie whispered to herself. On the opposite side of the street a relatively slim, bald man of around 6' or so feet tall wearing a black suit and red tie was casually walking along the pavement, one hand in his pocket the other holding a tomato that he was munching on. "Well he seems to like tomato's...guess I've got something in common with him". Christie watched as the man made his way down the street and turned a corner, disappearing from view, yet she stared for a few moments longer before turning back inside "Honestly Christie you have to stop deluding yourself" she whispered under her breath. Gathering the rest of her things Christie finished locking up the villa apartment and left.

After deciding to take the long, scenic route 47 finally arrived at "C-Law inc." Passing through the large automated doors 47 strolled down a corridor and arrived at a reception desk "I'm Romero I'm here to see Cameron" 47 said bluntly to the receptionist, flipping through an office organizer for a few seconds she looked back up at 47 and replied "Oh yes Mr. Romero, Cameron has had you listed as a company VIP, we are under instruction to allow you to come and go as you please". 47's blank expression slowly moved to a mild yet sincere half smile "Company VIP, and I don't even work here" 47 laughed in his thoughts before replying with a simple "thank you" and continuing down the corridor.

47 had only been in Cameron's building once, which was a few weeks ago yet he distinctly remembered every internal detail, the floor he was currently on contained mostly health and beauty facilities set up as perks to any lawyers who worked for the firm, there were beauty salons, health spas, massage parlors, swimming pools, a gym/dojo among other things. 47 was amazed at just how much of all this stuff Cameron had managed to fit into the place for his employees yet they mainly seemed to use everything but the gym and dojo. As 47 neared the end of the corridor he noticed movement out of the corner of his eye, someone was using the dojo. Turning his head for a better look 47 suddenly froze, never before had anything made 47 freeze like this, he had been trained to remain perfectly calm even if a gun were being pointed straight at his head, but for all his training he could never have been prepared for this. Right in front of him the most beautiful woman he had ever seen was training in an empty dojo, though 47 was in plain view and staring directly at her she seemed not to notice him at all, the wall was a one way mirror (which 47 figured out relatively soon) people on the outside could see into the dojo but people inside the dojo saw only their reflection. The woman's platinum hair was fashioned in a very unique way, it was parted at the front and the individual strands were grouped together to form spikes which pointed downward to her shoulders. She appeared tall (for a woman anyway) around 5'10, she had a figure which was slender and lithe but at the same time curvaceous, every part of her seemingly heavenly body seemed to be built perfectly, tight sinewy muscle was lightly covered by smooth, soft skin of exactly the perfect tone not too light or pale but at the same time not too dark or bronzed. The woman wore only white, skintight, spandex leggings and a matching sports bra. As she moved her body flowed in line with pure grace. She was definitely training in some form of kung fu style, the open palm stance and movements were a dead give away, 47 himself had been trained from a young age in several fighting styles, "Is it mantis?" he thought to himself

"No, the palms are entirely flat not curved like claws, it must be a snake style"

"Hey Romero, what are you doing here?"

"Huh Wha oh uhhh" Completely transfixed by the platinum haired beauty he didn't see Cameron coming down the hallway

"I uhhhhh, I think I left the uhhhh the Pachinsky file in your office" 47 replied whilst still half mesmerized by the beautiful woman in the dojo

"The Pachinsky file? Oh yeah you did leave it here it's in my office I'll go get it, oh I see you've finally laid eyes on Christie in there I told you you'd like her"

"Told me.wh, what are you..oh, oh jesus, that's Christie"

"Yeah, want me to introduce you to her"

"wh, what? God no, not now I'm not prepared, just..give me the file and..tell her I'll see her soon or something.

WELL That wraps up the 3rd chapter, I'm truly sorry about the overlong delay but I was busy with University and other things, I've got a bit more time on my hands now though so I intend to update this story more often, don't forget to review this chapter if you happen to read it. SEEYA
