"Yeah, yeah, yeah. For the millionth time, fuck off." she said, standing up and walking out.
The building was huge, she never liked walking too far in unless she had to. She didn't really like that guy much either for that matter. He was too whiney. The organization she was working for dealt with delivering important items here and there, and collecting money. It was easy most of the time, yet boring, but it gave a good pay.
She walked past a couple men taking their breaks, heading to her office. She wore a shirt with an eye on it, surrounded by thorn vines, baggy gray pants and black sneakers. On her way, she saw Kiligan standing by her door. He wore a similar shirt, just with the sleeves cut off, which he got scolded for. He also wore blue tennis shoes and blue shorts. "Ey Vrisky" he said with a smile.
She punched him in the arm. "The hell'd I say about calling me that."
"Not ta. But ah like it."
She sighed. "There a reason you're at my door?"
"Yep. Boss gave me a mission."
"So?"
"Soo, yer goin' with." He grinned.
"Why the fuck am I doing that?"
Kiligan put a serious face on. "Cause who the target is."
Vriska looked at him confused. "Who is it."
Kiligan shook his head. "Discuss it later. Along with other.. 'details'."
Vriska nodded, understanding a bit. 'So the day has come, eh?' she thought."I'll see you later, then?"
Kiligan nodded and walked away from her office. She gave a small sigh and walked in, sitting in the chair behind her desk. She booted up her computer and started playing solitaire. It was boring, but it consumed some time. Hearing a knock on the door, she said "What?"
Kiligan walked in, smiling. "Yo."
"What now?"
"Alright if ah take you out to dinner?"
Vriska looked at him curiously. "Why?"
He smiled. "Why not?"
She sighed. She hated when he replied with that. "Fine, hope you can pay."
"O' course, else I wouldnta asked ya."
"Now get back to work or whatever."
"So harsh." He said. Then smiled. "I'll catchya lata then."
Kiligan walked out. Vriska looked at the door for a second. She never admitted it, not even to herself, but she liked him. It came as a surprise that he asked her to dinner, but she wasn't complaining.
A while later, she shut off her computer, and locked her office door, heading home to get ready. She walked outside of the building and walked to her motorcycle. Starting it up, she drove out of the parking lot and made her way home.
It had started to sprinkle as she made her way home. As always she drove fast, loving the speed and the air. Also as a usual, she drove slightly off course into an alley, heading for a ramp she always rode off. She got near the ramp, gunning the throttle and taking off on it, going high in the air. She landed going slightly downhill, as to not damage her motorcycle. The rest of the way was calm, and she opened her garage sliding into it, idling then turning off the vehicle.
Vriska gave a happy sigh as she hadn't died or gotten injured on the fast ride home. She walked inside, taking off her trenchcoat and tossing it into a basket she kept for these rainy days. She proceeded to take off her helmet, throwing it into the basket as well. Walking to the bathroom, she walked in and stripped of her wet clothing, proceeding to wrap a towel her to cover herself after drying her hair. She walked out and went into her bedroom, picking out some clothes for the dinner with Kiligan. Quickly she dressed herself, putting undergarments on, then a no sleeved light gray shirt with a pair of dark blue shorts that extended slightly past her knees. She looked herself over in a mirror, content with the look.
Vriska took out her phone to text Kiligan, but she already recieved a text from him.

Vriska hurriedly put on her socks and shoes and walked outside to see Kiligan leaning against his blue truck. The boy was obsessed with blue, she thought. Walking up to the truck, she said, "Where shall we be going?"
Kiligan smiled. "Get in and find out, if yer not chicken" he said, giving a wink.
He knew how to push her buttons. "You know I'm not a chicken!" she said sternly, getting into the truck.
"More like a rooster.." he said under his breath, smiling big.
"What was that?" Vriska asked.
"Nothin'." he replied.
Kiligan started his truck and drove off. 15 minutes later they were in front of the theatres in town. "So what happened to dinner?" Vriska asked.
"Decided this would be more fun" he replied with a smile.
She smiled as-well, getting out of the truck as they found a parking space. They both walked up to the ticket booth, looking at what was playing. "Watcha in the mood for?" Kiligan asked.
"Something scary.. If YOU'RE not chicken."
"You know I definitely, ain't no chicken."
Looking at the movies, Vriska saw one she wanted to watch. "How about we watch 'Night of the Living Garden Gnomes'?" she asked.
Kiligan looked at her oddly at the name. He shrugged then ordered the tickets and they walked in. As he handed the guy their tickets, he said, "That'll be theatre 3 to the left."
Kiligan nodded and walked on. "Want anything?" he asked Vriska as they walked near the concession stands.
She looked at everything and said, "Just get a large popcorn for us."
He smiled at her and went to order. He walked back with the paid popcorn and they walked to their theatre. Surprisingly there were quite a few people there. The couple walked to the top rows, and sat about 2 away from the top, near the middle. As it turned out, this movie was supposed to be a comedy too. Vriska and Kiligan laughed a couple times, as did others. At one point, when reaching for popcorn at the same time, their hands met, and were quickly pulled away as they felt each other, blushing. They continued watching the movie.
Finally, it was over, and they walked out of the theatres, heading back to his truck. "Mind if I take ya somewhere real fast?" Kiligan asked.
Vriska gave him a look, and said "Sure, why not?"
He smiled at her, they both got in the truck and started driving off. She stared out the window for most of the trip, asking where they were going, getting a reply of you'll see. For a bit, she was worried. "We're here." Kiligan said.
They got out and she looked around. All she saw were trees and a hill that was pretty high. Kiligan grabbed her hand and started walking. "I wanna show you something" he said.
She blushed and followed him. He took her to the top of the hill. As it turned out it was flat at the top, and the view of the sky was great. "What do ya think?" he asked.
"Of?"
"The view of the sky silly" he replied, laying down and staring up at the sky.
"Its pretty neat" she said, laying down too.
Honestly, she thought it was quite amazing. The stars were bright and lit up the sky wondrously. They layed there for about an hour or so, talking about random things, laughing a lot, and staring up at the sky. Finally, Kiligan got up. "Welp, ah should be getting ya home" he said.
She looked up at him then got up. "Yeah" she smiled at him and turned around to start walking.
Until she felt a hand grip her arm, turning her around. Hands gripped both her arms. Kiligan's head was faced towards hers. His lips had softly pushed against hers. She was shocked. Not knowing what to do or think. He pulled away from her. "I've been waiting to do that all night." he admitted.
Vriska saw his cute blush under the moonlight, the curls of his blonde hair, the shyness in his eyes, and the nervous tension in his body. She pushed herself against him, wrapping her arms around his neck, putting her lips back on his. It was his turn to become motionless, until he put his arms around her waist, deepening the kiss. Vriska felt joy on this night. The movie turned out pretty good, Kiligan was his goofy self, she saw a great view of the sky, and, best of all, they were kissing. They pulled away from each other, and just stared for a couple seconds. 'Look at her, so insanely beautiful, I can't believe I actually did that' Kiligan thought. 'I.. kissed.. him. I can't believe it. It was so.. amazing." Vriska thought.
After a couple moments they started heading back to the truck. They got in and Kiligan started it up, driving off.
"Sorry bout that" he said after a couple minutes.
"About what?"
"Ya know.. Kissin' ya."
Vriska smiled at him. "It's quite alright. I mean, I did kiss you right after."
Kiligan smiled. "That ya did."
They reached Vriska's home, and he walked her to the door. "Well, I'll see you at work tomorrow?" Vriska asked.
Kiligan nodded. "You know it."
He gave her a hug and walked back to his truck, driving off. Vriska stared for a bit, then unlocked her door and walked in her house.
Vriska woke to her normal alarm. The events of the night before flooded into her mind as she remembered. Smiling, she stood up and got ready for work, putting on the normal. She walked into her garage, opened it, pushed her motorcycle out, starting it up, and closing the garage. She drove off to work. When she got there, she parked in her usual spot near the front, as she usually got there a bit earlier than everyone else.
Turning off her motorcycle, she walked in the building,heading to her office when the douche from yesterday and all other mornings came by and told her a mandatory meeting was starting in an hour. She just rolled her eyes and kept walking. Her office door came into view, and she opened the door and walked inside, closing it. She sat at her desk, turned on her computer, and started making reports for the latest assignments that had been completed in the last week. She completed it all within 40 minutes, as she didn't have much to do. So, she decided to go to the meeting room a bit early.
Vriska left her office, closing the door behind her, and walked towards the meeting room. She walked slow, so she got there 5 minutes before it started. She walked in and saw most had shown up, and she took a seat near the back. She saw someone she didn't recognize in the very front. She stared at him for a couple minutes, then the douche coughed and said it was time to start.
"Alright everyone, settle the hell down! I have an announcement, first off. Our company is changing for the better! We will still deal with exchanges, AND, we shall also deal with.. assassinations."
Vriskas eyes widened at this. She knew most of the people she worked with were violent people that wanted to punch and beat everything they saw. Now that she thought about it, why the hell was she still working there? Oh yeah, the pay was great. Shitheads.
Murmuring spread across the room. "Silence!" Douchey said.
"Our boss's brother will be taking over the company. Sir Connor De La Pierre." He motioned for the guy Vriska didn't recognize to stand up.
Pierre stood up and faced the workers. "Now then, I'm sure we'll get along just fine. I am, indeed, George Carisole's brother, younger brother, in fact. And he has told me to take over his company, and to do what I see fits. And I've dealt with other assassination companies before, too, and I think I see potential from all of you." He bowed and walked out of the room.
"Don't just sit there, numbnuts and freezytwats, get back to work! Assignments will be handed out individually to those I, and he, sees fit."
Everyone got up and left the room. Vriska was the first out, stomping towards her office, pissed off. She knew the boss better than this, he wouldn't have handed over his position without letting us know personally. Besides, she hadn't seen him in a few days, which was very weird. She stopped to see Kiligan walking and shaking his head as he walked out of the room too. She walked over to him. "This is some bullshit!" she almost exploded.
"Yer tellin me bout it." he replied.
This Pierre guy walked up to the two at that moment. "I would like to see the two of you in 10 minutes back in the meeting room. Got it?" Kiligan and Vriska nodded and he walked away.
They saw he talked to very few others, telling them the same thing. So, they all walked back into the meeting room. They took seats, and waited for Pierre to start talking. "Now then, I called you all in here because of your skills." He nodded to a tall guy in the back. "Jaecks, you are immensely strong and are not to bad at handling weapons."
He looked at another group. "Damien, Jack, and Monica. You three are synched to each other, and can deal with each others strengths and weaknesses as if there are no weaknesses." The group gave a fist pump and a yell, all at the same time.
He looked at a girl sitting not too far from them. "Sierra. You have very, peculiar, powers. You can use a higher form of telekinesis, send things flying, then fix the surroundings as if it never happened, leaving the victims to go crazy. You also excell at illusions. " She nodded.
He looked at Vriska and Kiligan. "Vriska Serket, very skilled in several forms of martial arts. Kiligan Joules, very precise marksman, trained in a couple fighting styles, MMA champ 2 years, you have speed as well as strength on your side."
The two just stared at him as he named others. "I have called you all in here because, well, you seem to be the best around this shithole, and I'd like you all to take on the harder missions as well as train others." He paced the room.
"If anyone want to back out, do it now."
Jaecks looked unsure of what to do. Vriska had known him for years, and he may have been strong, but he wasn't as bloodthirsty as the lowest around, and seemed somewhat nice, if anything gentle. The girl was just fucking insane. The triplets were just as bad. The others, she didn't really give two shits about. She, however wasn't gonna agree. She was sure Kiligan was with her, too. She stood up. "With all due respect, or none at all, what the fuck ever, you can go suck a dick and die. I'm not doing this" she said, looking at Kiligan for support, but he just sat there.
"Kiligan?" she said, almost a whisper.
"I'm sticking around.." he said, looking down.
Her heart sank at the words. "You're joking... right?"
He shook his head and stood up. "Nope. I'm staying with the company."
She slapped him hard. "Please understand-"
"FUCK YOU!" She yelled, slapping him again.
"Vrisky-"
"DON'T EVER FUCKING CALL ME THAT AGAIN!" she said, storming off.
Kiligan stared as she left, rubbing his face, his nose and lip bleeding. He felt Pierre put his had on his shoulder. "Now, now, boy, we don't need her."
"You're right.. She'd just get in the way.." he said.
Vriska heard this, and ran out off the building, hopping on her motorcycle and racing home, crying the whole way, planning on packing her stuff and moving far, far away from this place.
