This chapter introduces the bad guys, the villains, le mauvais garcon, mal character, bribón,contrabida, akutama…you know what I'm saying? (Those are seven ways you can say the word bad guy/villain….hehehe) Sorry, I didn't have my coffee yet so I'm kinda acting crazy. Anyways, thank you for the reviews. Keep 'em coming!
It's really short coz this is just an intro chapter for the bad guy, Michael...or is he? The next chapter will be longer with Matt and Mimi in it.
Chapter 3:
All prison telephone conversations were taped, so Michael Sheer had to learn to talk in codes so the censors wouldn't trace anything bad happening. But what did the little minds know about how the world really worked? They didn't understand he was selling defective merchandise to the enemy while working on the real thing for the Japanese government. Why shouldn't he profit from the enemy's greed?
"I'll need a new suit for court."
"Check."
That's what he liked about Jun Motomiya…her efficiency. With just those few words she'd know what to do. It wasn't that they were intimate. He hired her because he wasn't attracted to her. She's not what you can call a pretty woman, with a face like a scarecrow and delusional fantasies of being the next Lara Croft. But her mind was sharp enough to cut paper and she understood him. a vengeful woman was a force more fearsome than an atomic bomb, and he never wanted pleasure to interfere with business. No sex. No jealousy. No need to worry about female revenge. Jun got that. What she wanted form him wasn't sex or passion; she wanted adventure.
"Tell my tailor to make you a dress also." Michael pulled out the cigar he paid a small amount for.
"Really?" Jun's squeal of delight was real. In his generous understanding of her fantasy, he offered her the kind of assignment that would send someone like Jun un throes more satisfying than any orgasm. How often did she ask for more hands-on part in this game he was playing with his captors? Now she'd get to tackle the role of private investigator.
"Any word on the Belgian chocolates yet?" That was his code for Mimi Tachikawa. Mimi was sweeter and more deliciously than any candy, and Jun knew that. But Mimi escaped the box he put her in, and now he needed her back.
"You don't pay me enough for doing all this work." Jun pretended to whine.
There was a beep. The censors heard an overworked and underpaid assistant. But Jun knew the worth she brought him, and he paid her accordingly.
"I just gave you a designer dress." Out of fabric so secret, being caught wearing it would have her tried for treason.
"Um, so you did." She giggled like a schoolgirl, already anticipating the thrill of the hunt. He beamed at the knowledge that he hired the right person.
"Check the order confirmation and track down that chocolate. And make sure the contents aren't damaged." He blew out rings of smoke. As soon as he got what he needed from Mimi and erased her from the picture, he could get back to business. She already cost him almost a year of his life. He'd make her pay for all of her sins. "I want to celebrate my release in style."
"I'm on it, boss."
AN: Ok, for those who got confused with this chapter, Michael and Jun are talking on the phone and since prison telephones have censors, they have to talk in codes. The chocolate Michael was talking about is Mimi and he's asking Jun to find her and bring her back. Jun is this delusional girl who's always up for adventure and thinks that she's the next Lara Croft. Michael and Jun aren't together…they don't have any relationship whatsoever. Michael's only using her to get what he wants since he's in prison and he can't do nothing, while Jun only wants adventure and she thinks that this mission Michael gave her is perfect for her 'Lara Croft' image.
I hope I cleared any misunderstandings there. Chapter 4 will be up next week. Don't forget to review! Please!
