We drove around some small, one way streets of New Orleans, until we finally reached some apartments that were full of people who like our covers were "dancers". Solomon said we were the door on the far end, first floor. We went in with Solomon close on our heels and walked into where we'd be living until the mission was completed.
The apartment was nice for the "dancer" salary that we were supposedly living on so I could see how this would work. The walls were all beige with one bathroom, two bedrooms, kitchen, and living room. The furniture came with the apartment and could barely be considered furniture but it would have to do I guess since we were supposed to have enough money to buy new furniture. After a quick survey of the apartment (house) we'd be living in for a while, Solomon came up and told us he knew that the house was mediocre and definitely not somewhere Elektra would ever dream of living. After saying this, he told us that since the CIA secretly owned this apartment that they had some renovations and that we need to go see. He led us to my bedroom closet and told me to go push the secret button on the top left of the closet. When I did the half of the floor of my closet folded under leaving a staircase downward in the hole. Elektra and I went down and found a small palace like place underground. I was amazing and like nothing I had ever seen. Solomon told us this would be our real home but the apartment had to be our cover. Next he pushed a panel and a closet much like the one at Gallagher appeared, he said he was going to personally help us become our covers and that was when all the fun started.
About an hour later Elektra had light brown, long strait hair, with blonde and red highlights; while I had brown, long curly hair, with blonde highlights. Next we were showed our "closest with the dancer clothes", fake noses that all we had to do was attach and they would stay on for a year or if we needed them to come off then there was a special solution, and we were also given colored contacts, gold for me, and green for her. By the end of our transformation Elektra and I looked like supermodels; even Elektra who always looks amazing was surprised at how she looked so different yet just as beautiful. Since he had now helped all he could and showed us were everything was, including weapons, he left and said just ask through the comms units if we needed anything. Before he left, he also told us that he would contact us in the morning and give us our assignment for the day and he would give us some more background for when I went to apply for a job as a dancer for Scorpion.
The next day we woke up at 0500 to get our covers firmly in place and so Elektra could do my make up…yuck! About an hour later, and lots of arguments I definitely looked the part of a dancer. I looked like someone who was gorgeous loved to show off her best traits and was untouchable to most. I looked like someone Scorpion would want on his private staff; I turned and thought I looked good until I saw a glimpse of Elektra in the mirror, she looked amazing. Damon aka Eric was going to flip out over her in about 45 minutes.
"Girls, I assume you are up and ready."
"Yes, and we can hear you loud and clear."
"Good. Now your mission for today Emily is to go and entice Scorpion until he thinks he has to have you. Then you need to take this as any other mission and inflentrate his place, get close, but Emily remember be careful and try not to let your emotions for him affect your decision. He is changed! Now Elektra, you will go to Damon's today and start your first day of work. You are his personal dancer and will spend most of the day with him and some of it with just him. We are 98.9% sure he is good so you should be safe with him. Good luck!"
"Ok, we're starting out the door now and we're going to walk the 3 blocks until the clubs."
"Ok."
Now that our assignment/mission was told to us in short we left for the clubs and arrived around 0700. I quickly went into the club and asked for Scorpion; they sent me around the corner and that was when I came face to face with him, the person I probably loved the most. Unfortunately even from just glancing at him I could tell that he had changed. He eyes were cold, calculated, methodical, and absolutely the eyes of someone who wasn't afraid to kill. He was clean but much thinner from stress (you could see the bags under his eyes) and lot strong as if they kept him on a strict regime for exercise. Solomon was right, he wasn't they Zach I knew, he was definitely Scorpion in everyway; willing or not he was now someone I didn't know and I started to wonder if I had every really known him. In that second I wondered how he could have betrayed me, Solomon, and his friends that easily and then I remembered maybe the most important thing, he was a spy and utterly deadly; someone not to be trifled with.
AN: In the next few chapters I will be switching Macey aka Elektra and Cammie aka Jenny/Emily's points of view so check below the - that I will try to make to help this maybe seem less confusing. Also it will say or so I hope this will also help.
