Dinner was undisturbed as they chatted back and forth. The meal came to an end and the two looked at each other and smiled. Magnus was about to speak when his cell phone rang, "Magnus! Syndicate troops are storming headquarters! You and Konoko are needed ASAP!"Magnus frowned, "We got work; HQ is under attack,"

Konoko nodded and grabbed her purse. Magnus walked up to the owner and explained the situation. The two got in the car and drove off. Konoko climbed into the back seat. Magnus raised an eyebrow, "Not that I'm complaining, but why are you undressing in the back seat?"

She glared, "I keep a uniform in the back seat, just in case,"

He simply nodded and focused on driving. The Shelby motor Roared to life as the speed increased. The Garage's assault doors were closing as he sped under them. The car skidded to a stop as the wall approached. A half dressed Konoko spilled over the front seat as the vehicle screeched to a rest. Magnus looked away out of respect. He climbed out and opened the trunk. He removed his tie from his neck and a modified mercury bow from the trunk. He slipped his nice jacket off and pulled out his black mirror shades. He put two pistols in his belt and waited for Konoko.

Konoko finished changing and pulled out two pistols. She looked at her partner, "You look like a young punk version of James Bond,"

He just smiled, "I could use a Martini too. Do I get the girl at the end?"

She smiled, "We'll see. Let's show them what happens when they mess with us,"

A feral grin crossed his face, "Cocked, locked, and ready to rock. Time to bust some heads," he said as he ran for the door.

Konoko followed suit and charged behind him. Heavy resistance was everywhere. Bullets flew and explosives went off. Strikers and Tankers were everywhere. They fought tooth and nail to their destination. They made it to the roof; they found a chopper with Shinatama. Magnus analyzed the situation and didn't like it. He was out of ammo and was winded. Konoko had a full clip and a pistol half full. The helicopter was taking off and a unit of enemies was in their way. Magnus reached for his boot. He drew out a long knife, and everyone took a step back. Magnus took a menacing stance. He growled and leaped into the fray. Konoko charged for the chopper, "Shinatama!"

Magnus broke the last Tanker in time to see Konoko fighting a large opponent, "Now that's not very nice, SAVE SOME FOR ME!" he said as he rushed in.

Magnus made several quick slashes as Konoko stepped back to take a breath. "So, the two top agents of the TCTF against me. I'm honored, but I did my job so see ya,"

The big man leapt from the top of the building. Magnus turned towards Konoko, "You ok?"

Konoko said nothing as she walked inside the building. Magnus slouched as his tail hung low, "Was it something I said?"

Magnus found Konoko in the Chief's office yelling about something. She was going agiast the chief's orders and going after Shinatama. When she came out she found Magnus waiting, "If you honestly think I'm going to let you do this alone, you are out of your damn mind!"

She smiled, "Thanks, but you do this, you will be hunted,"

A malicious sneer came over his face, "I am never hunted,"

She loaded her pistol, "Then let's grab our equipment while it's free,"
