POV 3rd (This will be the main POV until we hit a plot point)
Location Updated: ?
Raider walked the halls of the place he had been so many times, you could say it was like a second home to him. He passed many armed soldiers along the way, none of them really stood out.
As he made his way to his objective, he couldn't help but think of the situation he was in.
He wanted to think he was doing the right thing. That much was given. His targets had all been corrupt politicians, gang leaders, and the such. But he always was unsure. Well lucky him, today would be the day he understood his full role. At least, that's what some people want him to think…
He arrived at the briefing room. As he sat in a chair that was a little bit far away from the other's, Anonydeath walked in.
"Let's see…. It appears everyone is here." He said, looking out over the crowd of soldiers and underlings.
"Now onto today's assignment. Storming Planeptune's Basilicom." He said. A few people, including Raider, gave a puzzled look at the mech.
"Your mission is to create a distraction big enough to let, Raider our assassin here, enough time to do his job." Said Anonydeath. One underling spoke up. "And what is this mission exactly where we have to make a big enough distraction so that mr. assassin here can do, while we get the biggest chance at knowing Iris Heart personally?"
A couple of the foot soldiers agreed with the underling's logic. Anonydeath just chuckled before explaining.
"His mission is to assassinate the oracle of Planeptune, Histoire." He said. A hush fell over the Army. Raider looked like he was just slapped in the face by a fish. The only problem was is that he didn't understand why he felt angry at Anonydeath for giving him this mission.
"Now then, I will begin to explain how this will go." Said Anonydeath. He pointed to a map of Planeptune.
"Raider will go incognito, he will be waiting near the middle of Planeptune for the signal." He started. "You will know when to take the plan into action when the snowstorm hits."
Raider raised his hand. "Sir? I know it's Winter but, I don't believe Planeptune Get's Much snow, let alone a snowstorm." He said. Anonydeath nodded, before explaining.
"This snowstorm has been made artificially. We have spent a while making this seem like a normal storm. We will have ship's above the area creating the snowstorm. Then, we will airdrop the rest of you into the city to start the distraction. From there, Raider shall complete his mission and you will all meet at the rendezvous point outside the Nation." He elaborated.
He turned to look at raider. "And under no circumstance shall you make contact with any CPU."
"Got it." Raider said getting up.
"Everyone get into positions! If you'll excuse me I have to make sure my lovely Noire doesn't interfere." Said Anonydeath. Raider face-palmed.
He arrived at the dropship. He climbed in, and went through the mission plan in his head.
"Hey!" Said a voice to his left, cutting off his concentration. He turned to look at the newcomer.
"So… You're Raider?" She asked him. Raider nodded, Before asking, "What's with the attire?"
"Standard issue. At least I believe it is." She said the last part to herself. "Nice to meet you, most people call me underling, prefer they don't, I'm Linda."
"Nice to meet you Linda." Said Raider. She gave his outfit a once over.
"What's with your attire?" She asked him. Raider looked at his current outfit. His civilian outfit was what he wore if he needed to go Incognito.
His trademark Black Hoodie accompanied the outfit. His Plaid scarf that normally adorned his face was currently wrapped around like a scarf. His Assassin's Gauntlet (Syndicate) was in a throwaway bag (backpack) that adorned his back. And lastly, he wore a pair of Black and Green sunglasses that he found from one of his earlier missions.
"Made it myself." He said, as he said that the ship started to shake.
"Cut the chatter! Initiating drop sequence!" Said a voice from the cockpit.
"Maybe we can hang out sometime?" Said Raider at the open door. "That is, If you survive."
"I'd like that." Said Linda.
Raider smirked, before lifting the scarf over his mouth. He jumped out of the ship and went into freefall.
Raider landed a little bit outside the border, but thanks to some agents inside, he was able to get in scot free.
He walked around the city for a bit before finding himself at the basilicom. He leaned against the nearby wall and waited.
It took some time but eventually he saw a snowflake fall to the ground. And then more. Until the area was covered in a windy snowstorm hell.
He got up from his spot and removed his scarf. Re applying it so that his left eye wasn't visible, He grabbed his gauntlet and equipped it. The Snowstorm had been providing some excellent cover.
He looked at himself. Black hoodie, Scarf covering his face, Sunglasses underneath his face, and his Gloves. His gauntlet also was Mission ready.
He walked over to the area under the balcony, Before launching his Gauntlet's grapple at it.
He propelled himself up so that he was under the balcony. He looked out at the city and saw the troopers air dropping into the city firing at the people.
Raider thought to himself, this isn't right. Why do I feel this way. I shouldn't.
Raider then got the A-OK from the ground forces to head in. As he entered the area, he saw Histoire. He silently snuck up on her before extending his blade.

But that would be an awful place to end the chapter.
Instead before he could deal the finishing blow, Plutia tackled him to the ground.
He rolled off of the ground and got into a battle position until….
"What is this?" Asked Plutia looking at Raider's Locket. It had came off of his neck.
As Plutia went to pick it up, Raider reacted. He sprinted at it and leaped for it.
He grabbed it and Plutia grabbed the string holding it there.
They struggled for it. Plutia grabbed something from her pocket before Raider, Seeing as she was only using one hand, Tugged at the locket. He was victorious in obtaining the locket, however he also obtained what looked like a tiny key of sorts.
He then got a radio call, The ground forces were evacuating. He lept out the window into one of the drop ships. The mission had been a failure.
He returned to his apartment, He ripped of the scarf that adorned his face, he picked up the key that Plutia had dropped. He grabbed his locket. *Click* The key worked. He opened the Locket to find…
(POV 1ST)
"What?"
So… How you like them apples.
That's it for today. So until next time
