Angelica, Henrietta, Claes, Rico,and Triela live in a large house paid for by the SWA. They get paid for their assassinations like normal workers,so they have many entertainment systems. (Ipods,laptops,cell phones ect.) Ever since Elsa was killed,they've anxiously waited for a letter that'll tell them to get a new recruit,which they receive. Now, they've rescued a girl from a brothel whereas the owner kidnaps girls to work there. Alex is the one they rescue, and she's instantly sent to be conditioned. Henrietta stays with Alex to explain everything,but gets a surprise when she wakes. So,they're driven back to their home where everyone gets the shocking news.
"WHAT!" cry Angelica,Claes,Rico and Triela. "What do you mean she can't speak! She's around our age!" argues Triela.
"I know,but she can't. Either that or she won't." calmly replies Henrietta patting Alex's head who was hiding behind her. "Can you talk?" asks Angelica. The girl just stares at her blankly before looking around at the other girls. "Oh my" she says, frowning. "Maybe she's a dud?" questions Rico.
"Well,for now lets get her a snack." pipes Henrieta. She dashes to the kitchen and grabs a few snack bags from the cabinet. She tosses one to each girl and in the tempo, accidentally beams one at Alex. At arm's length,Alex catches it commences to open the bag."Or not .. . " Rico says,mid chew. "I guess skills like that are needed in a brothel?" Angelica watches as Alex pops in handfuls before crumbling up the bag and finding a trashcan nearby. "Well,we know she's not a dud but I'm not eager to learn sign language so she's gonna have to learn to talk."
Claes kneeles down and playes some hand signs but Alex just watches dumbly. "huh" was all Claes said.
"Surely her captor communicated with her some way?
They try getting her to communicate but to no avail. It was like having a baby with them. During the few weeks though,they did find she was very capable of defending herself. Her reflexes were well honed and she was very strong. They sent her to hang out with her handler and after that she made noises and seemed eager to speak. "HAHAHA! That did the trick!" Triela laughed as she watched Henrietta teach Alex what a spoon was.
It took some time but Alex soon learned how to have polite conversations. They felt insults were an unnecessary lesson but she picked them up anyway from the petty arguments the girls occasionally had. "Alex" Henrietta calls Alex from the living room.
After Alex takes a seat,Henrietta asks some questions though she should have known the answers. "Nothing,unknown" All memories were gone. Finally,when Alex was taught fully how to talk,the girls asked her questions about her past. They found she didn't know her parents,or birth place,but she sometimes remembered her birthday. Then they taught her her place in the house and also,they shared the responsibility to teach her to cook,clean,fight,read and such book smarts,use guns and melee weapons,and many other things.
"All right,I guess there's nothing more to teach you." Triela spoke up,checking a list she made in the beginning of Alex's training. "Yes,I'm glad. Thank you all so much." retorts a very excited Alex,bowing to each girl. Then,the phone rang. Rico answered it then called Alex over.
"Hello Alex,I'm your boss and I just wanted to know if everyone's tought you everything you need to know."
"Yes,sir. Everything."
"Good. Because you're going on a mission. It's in Florida. There's a man goin' around molesting kids. He is a streamer of child pornography and uses the money to help support a currently unknown terrorist group. This missions'll be easy,so don't be nervous. Now put Treila on the phone, please"
"Yesir."
She called Treila over and the girl spoke to her boss for a while while the others researched Florida for it's laws,climate,and maps to print. "It's in Hollywood. Print out a couple of those and Miami too. Direct attack girls get the info and maps. Gun girls take care of your guns." Alex watched sadly as Henrietta walked away."It's okay." comforted Angelica,"She takes good care of her weapons after a misson,so she won't be long." Angelica smiled at her and after a smile back, Alex replied "That's nice to hear" After a few prints and suitcase packing,they devised a plan.
