Chapter Five: Looks can be deceiving
Shizuka read through the file at an amazing speed and tossed it casually behind her. Myou finished moments later, also throwing the file behind her, and they re-started their interrupted conversation. Durgil hadn't even looked at it yet, and was still finishing her book. Tobias was reading his, and Maurilla finished hers. She walked over to Nich's door and pulled her arm back, flinging the file at the door as hard as she could. "You. Miserable. ASS! We all almost just got killed and what does he do? Gives us files! Doesn't even ask if anyone is okay!" She walked back over to her suitcase, planning on getting a change of clothes and showering. She pulled out a pair of black pants and a red spaghetti strap shirt. She headed towards the bathroom, stepping over the now unconscious kicking bag. She looked back at everyone, and then proceeded towards the shower.
Tynstara Espisito, more commonly called Star, swayed back and forth with the music pouring from her piano. Her fingers danced across the keys the way water flows down a stream, smooth and graceful. For the moment, she was in her own little world where nothing was ever wrong. It was all as it should have been.
Her mother wasn't dead.
She wasn't a witch, just a normal girl.
Her family hadn't been harassed because of her and her brother's powers.
Her mother wasn't dead....
Once that though repeated itself, she came back to reality. The song she was playing ended, but she still sat for a few more moments, contemplating the many reasons that would come up, especially at a time like this. She was so lost in her thoughts, that she never heard her father come up behind her.
"Lost again?" Star spun around, nearly falling off her stool.
"Father! When did you get here?" He smiled and walked over, sitting next to her on the stool.
"Only a few moments ago. I was in town and decided to drop by to see how you were doing." He paused for a moment, and then sighed. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out an envelope and handed it to her. "Also, it seems that whoever sent you this doesn't know your actual address, because it came in the mail at our house." Star looked at the envelope critically.
'Hmmm...no return address...odd...' She looked up from the envelope to see her father staring expectantly at her. Apparently, he had been speaking to her, and she had not noticed. "Oh! I'm sorry father, were you saying something?" Her father laughed and shook his head.
"Only saying good-bye dear, and I'll call and check in with you later." Star smiled and stood, placing the envelope down on her piano. She hugged her father and watched him walk out with a sad smile on her face. Turning to push in the seat, she remembered the envelope picked it up, carrying it with her to the kitchen. After grabbing a cup of tea, she sat at the table and opened it, slowly pulling out the paper and reading it. It said…
Dear Miss Espisito,
Greetings! My name is Nichel Telkner, and I am writing to you to request your assistance. Would you be so kind as to meet myself and my associates at the McDonalds on the corner of 6th and Iowa street on Tuesday, April 6th at 6:00 p.m.? There is no need to respond to this letter, all you need to do is either show up, or not. Thanks you for your time!
Sincerely,
Nichel Telkner
Star turned the letter over in her hands, but saw nothing else. She began to talk to herself, something she'd always done when trying to figure something out. "Oh Man...April 6th? That's today! No other useful information...I don't even know why he and his associates want to meet me. I'm not getting any negative vibes from the letter though, and assuming
he wrote it, then I suppose there will be no harm..." She set the letter down and looked at her clock. Realizing that it was already 4:30, she ran off to her room to shower and prepare for this...meeting.
Linc looked up from his newly acquired files, an evil looking grin playing across his features. He stood slowly and walked over to his closet, pulling out a brown trench coat. Grabbing the files and grinning once more, he walked out of his private office and headed for the conference room. Upon arriving, he scanned the room, noticing that everyone he'd written to had arrived. 'This will go easier than planned!' he thought to himself. Motioning to his guards to lock the door, he took his place at the head of the table. Instead of sitting though, he merely placed the files down and began pacing the room. Everyone else watched him nervously, wondering what was happening. They got their answer when he stopped pacing and pointed to a location on the large map on the wall behind him. "Assuming you are all reasonably intelligent, I don't really need to inform you of where exactly we are. I will however, inform you of where we are going." At this he pointed to another location on the map. "Washington D.C. There is a meeting of World Leaders and Diplomats at the White House on April 23rd. This, my friends, is where the scum of the earth will be. The richest currently living people will be there. These people don't need this money! All they want to do is promote 'World Peace and Unity'. They don't care about the common peoples interest." He sat down finally and passed a file to each person. "After our last...excursion, and what happened there, I took the liberty of tracking down our uninvited guests. Maurilla Igantus and Shizuka Takai are well known to many people, and seeing as how they are not on our side...well, that leaves us at a rather large block on the path to World Domination. I give no thought to this Durgil woman, and I suggest you don't either. Myou Naito, Tynstara Espisito and Tobias Maxwell could prove to be a threat as well. I am requesting that each of you send one of your best assassins to take care of them."
"Mr. Syam?"
"Yes Mr. Dormous?" Jaken Dormous smiled and motioned to the door guard to go fetch something.
"We thought of that already, and would like to introduce you to the best of the best that we have." At this, the door opened once more and the guard re-entered, followed by six people, four men and two women. They stood in a line next to the table. Jaken stood and walked over to Linc and handed him a stack of files as well. He then walked over to the
line of people and waited for Linc to finish reading the names to himself. Jaken motioned to a short Japanese looking man. "This is Kazuki Minoru, the Japanese Mob's best assassin, rivaled only by Shizuka Takai herself." Jaken motioned to a pretty red haired woman. "The woman next to him is Tarah McQuinn." Jaken moved down the line, next to two boys who looked as though they were barely eighteen. "These two are Ata and Atsu Mandel, twin assassins. Next to them" he said as he motioned to a rather tall man with black hair and piercing ice blue eyes, "is Ro Shen, he's half human and half earth demon. And finally, this raven-haired beauty next to him is Sakura Michi. And these six are the absolute best we have. They're all yours to command Linc." Linc gave a sinister smile and nodded, but at the door guard. At than, the guard opened the door again, and five more guards came in. The people at the table and Jaken all looked around, alarmed. "Mr. Syam, what is going on here?"
"Well, Mr. Dormous, I figured you would know that by now. Since you have turned your assassins over to me, there is no need for you." Linc held a handgun up to the middle of Jaken's forehead. "Farewell, old friend."
All that could be heard from outside were screams.
