The Angel of Darkness
Chapter 1: International War
A woman no older than twenty watched the Embassy Hotel from a distance. She finished tying her hair up and put on a platinum blonde wig. She pulled the gloves on and picked up the package labeled "FRAGILE." Smirking she stepped out and put on her sunglasses and began walking to the Embassy Hotel.
As she walked inside the massive hotel, eyes followed her. She wasn't a very sociable person, so she just kept walking right to the concierge.
"May I help you?"a snooty woman asked.
"I have a package for the Duke. It is imperative that he receive it immediately." The woman smiled and dropped the package off.
"All right. I will see that he gets it. Oh, here he comes now. Have a nice day." The woman said. The girl smiled and walked away.
Outside the hotel, the woman walked and took off her sunglasses. She turned around at the exact moment the building blew sky high. Smirking she got into her car and drove away.
Relena dodged the car and saw the woman with the platinum blonde wig on.
Elsewhere...
Heero watched the news.
"Now we return to our top story. Today, the centuries old hotel, The Embassy, was blown to pieces. It was took at least three thousand people along with it. In the hotel was the multi-millionaire, Duke Jonathan Franklin. He was killed. There are no suspects and no leads. All the police can say is that the building just blew. The Duke leaves his wife and baby boy, Julienne and Christopher Jonathan Franklin."
"That's funny," Heero groaned. Then his laptop began beeping to him. Looking toward it, he got up and sighed. He pushed a button and a woman with large glasses appeared. "Professor Kay. What a surprise," Heero said dryly. The professor glared at him with her glasses. Her hair was pulled tightly back.
"Don't sass me, Heero. I'm definitely not in the mood. Have you seen the news?" she asked. She sounded distressed. Heero nodded.
"Who hasn't, professor?" he said. Kay narrowed her eyes at him.
"Listen, Jay has started. We decided that you and Relena should work together on this next project."
"I work alone. I always have and I always will," Heero said, removing his shirt. Kay smirked slightly.
"I'm sure Relena feels the same way, Heero. Be at headquarters tomorrow at noon. You'll have a briefing of what is to come."
The next day...
Heero walked into the conference room. Relena sat with her legs up. The unbelievably short skirt she had on was teasing. She looked up at Heero. Pulling the red sucker out of her mouth seductively, she smirked.
"You must be Heero. It's been ten years," she said. Standing up, she pulled the skirt down a little. Kay and Jay walked in.
"Hello. Let's get to this, shall we?" Jay took a seat. Kay and the spies sat down. Relena grinned a little at Heero.
"What's this about, Jay?" Relena said with all the contempt in the world. Jay glared at her for a second, as if deciding whether or not to say something. He picked up his coffee and drank solemnly.
"Patience was never your strong point, Relena. Anyway, everyone please look forward." The lights dimmed and a screen rolled down. A picture of a woman frowning at the camera was there.
"Who's she?" Relena asked.
"That's the Countess of Rourke. She's very rich, powerful, influential, and evil. She is currently aiding whoever is causing this war."
"How do you know it isn't her that is this so-called maestro of war?" Relena asked, once again propping her feet up. Kay shook her head. Heero smirked.
"Just shut up and listen, Relena. As I was saying, the countess, Victoria, has a daughter who married Lord Une. He mysteriously dies, leaving the daughter with all of his money that she naturally takes and lives with her mother, forgetting about her in-laws. This woman's name is Lady Anne Une. She is a tight one as you can see." A picture popped up of a woman with her hair two braided ponytails that are wrapped around the base. She has glasses on and is a splitting image of her mother, only younger.
"So, what are we supposed to do?" Heero asked, getting bored.
" I'm haven't gotten there, Heero." Jay said.
" Bite me, Jay." Heero said. Jay started to get up, but Kay calmed him. Next a picture of the two women and a man appeared. Another woman was standing there, mugging the camera.
"This young fellow is Treize Khushrenada, Lady Une's current love interest. He sees other women, but I guess she is blinded. Serves her right."
"Who's the chick with the ugly mug on her face?" Relena stared hard, trying to remember where she'd seen that face before. Jay looked at the picture.
"I think that's Treize's bodyguard, Ming T'ai. She's a very not happy character," Kay said.
"Oh, he's really gay for having a woman protect him," Heero said. Relena and Kay glared at him.
"Anyway, why'd you ask, Relena?"
"I've seen the chick before. She had a blonde wig on at the time, but its her nonetheless. She was there when the hotel blew up. She almost ran me over and she broke my fucking nail. I'm mad as hell," Relena said. Heero smirked and snickered. "Blow me, Heero."
"Where and when, princess?" he retaliated. Jay and Kay shook their heads.
"Just gather as much info on these three that is possible. Relena, use your ways of persuasion. Heero, do whatever it is that you do to get the job done. Dismissed." Jay got up. He helped Kay up and they walked out.
