Chapter 3
The New Job
Ziplining down from the office building, Ada Wong landed gracefully onto the next door abandoned building. She glanced back towards the buiding and smirked. "hm~"
Patting the dirt from her leather pants, Ada started to disarm her crossbow as she walked towards the stairway door. She pushed the door open and started to walk down the stairs. As he did so, something in her pocket started to ring. Ada pulled out a small clear cube. She pressed a button and it opened up showing a video call, "Did things go well?"
A man's voice came from the cube, and Ada just gave a faint nod, "Of course. It was too easy. Are you sure they're as dangerous as you said?"
Ada laughed a little as she spoke. This was all too easy. She was questioning why this man had paid her so much for this, "Oh yes. They are."
The asain woman's brow raised slightly as she heard this, "oh? How so?"
The man was silent for a moment, before he finally spoke again, "Trust me, when I say its best not to leave them alone."
"oh? Is that right~ hm." She wasn't all that convinced by his words; however, her current client was paying a LOT of money for rather easy information gathering, "Oh and one more thing."
Ada glanced back down at the cube as she walked down the stairs and towards the first floor, "Did you give the information to Mr. Muller?"
"Yes I did, but why only the information concerning their reasons for being in Moscow?"
There was more useful information than that. Ada wasn't quite sure her client was interested in Jake Muller, but she had a few guesses. She figured it was the blood he had, but Ada had a gut feeling that the reason wasn't that quite obvious, "Good, and why not check yourself?"
Ada smirked. Of course she was going to check for herself, good to know her client knew what kind of woman she was, "Why don't you just tell me yourself?"
She gave a playful tone to her question, but all she recieved was silence, "I'll send you your next assignment"
Ada gave a sigh of annoyance and disappointment, but she figured he wouldn't tell her. Can't blame a girl for trying though~
Alright~ Let me see what this is all about.
Plugging the memory card into the cube, Ada scrolled through the information looking for the bit she was told to give to Mr. Muller. As she glanced through it, she gave a smirk, "oh? this is rather interesting. Wonder why he's so interested in those two~"
Clicking send, she transfered the information to her client. Ada closed the cube and placed it back into her pocket.
Yeah, coffee is good. I'll see you tomorrow.
Jake
Smiling brighty as she read it, Sherry sat alone at a cafe enjoying a lovely breakfast. Dressed in a comfortable set of clothes, she relaxed in her chair. The coffee cup in front of her was steaming with hot cocoa.
I'm so excited. Its been forever. I wonder what we'll talk about. I hope he's been ok. Hopefully nothing bad has happened.
A lot of thoughts raced through Sherry's mind. Taking a sip of her coffee, Ms. Birkin quickly texted to location of the cafe to Jake. She clicked send hearing a beep from her phone, "oh! Must be Claire."
Answering the cell, Sherry smiled hearing a familiar voice, "Hi Sherry, having fun in Russia?"
Claire's voice seemed a bit tired, but Sherry could tell her friend was happy to talk with her, "yes! Its so beautiful here. Moscow is so much fun."
"That's great to hear. Also, I've been wondering. How are things going with Jake? Are you seeing him soon?"
Sherry almost laughed. OH jeeze, Claire definitely could read Sherry like a book. Then again, the last time they spoke Sherry had mentioned Jake, and most likely Sherry sounded excited.
"He is well, I'm going to have coffee with him either today or tomorrow."
Yup, Sherry sounded way too excited. Claire just giggled, "That's fantastic Sherry! Having someone you really like is such a lovely thing."
Sherry turned a bit red, "C-Claire. I told you, we're just friends."
Claire laughed, "Did I say otherwise?"
Sherry was silent for a moment, before she spoke again, "Is it that obvious?"
"Don't worry. Its not that bad. I'm just good at guessing these sorts of things"
Sherry scoffed a little bit. Not well enough to figure out Leon.
"What was that?" Claire asked not quite catching what the scoff meant.
"oh, nothing." Sherry glanced at her wrist watch and smiled.
"So Claire how are things?"
Sherry and Claire drifted into conversation as the morning went on.
