Kensi POV
I was on a mission to take out Ilsa Faust. But in order to do that I needed to pretend to go rogue, join the syndicate, gain their trust, find Ilsa and kill her. Or... I could just find Ilsa and kill her then go after the man too. It seemed like a pretty solid plan, plus I was really good at my job. I'd just go with the flow. I knew their next play was to kill the Chancellor of Austria, I knew Ilsas position and how she was going to go about her plan. I quietly but quickly walked up the stairs to my perch. I spied Ethan out of the corner of my eye but I don't think he noticed me. What the hell was he doing here? I thought, as I saw Benji too. What the hell?! This was my fight! Ok, think logically, maybe Ethan caught onto the syndicate. Maybe this was his predetermined mission. Yeah that was probably it. He was smart enough to know what to do. The opera was beginning, I started moving a little quicker towards my place. I was up high, I liked it up there, easy to see all my targets and of course the Chancellor of Austria. I was trying to keep an eye on too many people, I got a little distracted and choose to watch Ethan for a good amount of my time. I had completely lost Benji he was probably in a closet running facial recognition on us all. God I missed them all so much. I noticed Ethan was watching a man but at the same time was also watching Ilsa as she climbed up to her spot. Unfortunately I couldn't kill her just yet. I pulled out one of the rifles that was stashed for the syndicate, I followed Ethan with my sights set on the man he was following, the gun being already loaded. I saw he was in trouble when the man he was following noticed his presence, he was a good height, a bit taller than Ethan, stronger too. It turned into a fist fight. I waited for a little while and took the shot. He dropped. Ethan looked around confused but decided to set his sights back on Ilsa. On another account I saw the guard I walked by on the way in, he was part of the plot to assassinate the Chancellor too. God they really don't trust their people to get the job done. I changed my view to watch Ethan who had also noticed. He grabbed the gun the man had dropped when I shot him. He didn't know where to aim at, but neither did I. Two people were trying to kill the Chancellor. I watched him to make sure who I knew to shoot. Ethan chose to take a shot at the Chancellor, making sure it was only a flesh wound. I sighed but kept my sight on the guard who was in the lighting booth. Benji had rushed in and started a fist fight with the guard. I quickly choose to aim, however before I could pull the trigger he dropped.. I looked back over to Ilsa, she was gone. I quickly discarded my weapon and started off to get out as fast as possible knowing that they would be sealing off the exits because the Chancellor had been shot. I ran out with the crowd, somehow slipping by the guards. I quickly called Benji.
"Hello?" He answered sounding annoyed and confused about why someone would be calling him at this particular moment.
"Benji, it's Kensi. I know the Chancellor of Austria was just shot, save your questions and just give me your location." I stated.
"Parking garage 3rd level." He said sounding out of breath.
"I'll be there in 15."
"Minutes?"
"Seconds." I said and laughed a little out of breath myself. I quickly pulled open the passenger door looked at the astounded look on Benjis face and laughed a little. Then we drove off to find Ethan and Ilsa walking casually. The Chancellors car just exploded as we were driving up.
"HOLY SHIT" I cursed.
"Get in." Benji said as we drove up. Neither Ethan or Ilsa complained just hopped in and we drove off.
"Kensi?!" Ethan sounded super surprised. I waved a little.
"YOU!" Ilsa exclaimed.
"Yes, hello to you too Ilsa." I said my voice clipped.
"You have to get going." I told her, she nodded. Ethan and Benji disagreed.
"NO"
"Ethan, Benji I know you need to know whats going on. But she has to leave so they don't suspect anything."
"I need some answers first." Ethan said. I sighed a little.
"Ilsa Faust." Ilsa introduced herself.
"British Intelligence?" Ethan asked but also told.
"Yes, I was here to kill the Chancellor, but I was just going through the motions. Saving you in London put me in a tight spot." They knew each other? I was lost.
"Those other two idiots who were there were to make sure you got the job done." I added in.
"You took them out?" She asked me. I didn't say anything.
"One man was there to kill the chancellor, the other to kill you... A test." Ethan stated, talking to Ilsa,.
"Second one I've failed, thanks to you." She shot back at him.
"The car bomb was insurance." He said putting the pieces together.
"Hey, they don't know me yet." I said, although I had known them really really well, I did my research.
"What're you suggesting?" She asked me.
"A new face, a new potential agent." I offered up.
"Might not be a terrible idea, I should take you with me." She said.
"My original idea was just to kill you, but I wasn't expecting Ethan or Benji to show up." I glared at them all. She laughed a little.
"We have a tail" Benji said out of nowhere.
"Ok, if you want to take down the syndicate you have to let me and ... I'm sorry, I don't know your name." She offered me to fill in the blank
"Kensi." I said.
"You're going to have to let me and Kensi go. We're after the same thing though, and maybe I can convince you not to kill me." She directed that last part at me.
"This has to look like an escape so you just throw us out anywhere." She said. Ethan pulled out his phone with the picture of the man who shot me on it. I was still so confused.
"Tell me who he is."
"Ethan now is not the best time for this but he's on my hit list too." I spoke up. There were gunshots all around the car.
"CHANGE OF PLANS THROW THEM OUT!" Benji yelled. Ethan opened the door and threw us both out into the night.
