The grim reaper stood on top of the tallest building in their target area easily blending with the night in her black attire, she knew that she needed to stay alert because someone was always bound to make a mistake when on a mission. Raised in the Elite Assassin Academy, she knew how to execute well and had little to no room for sympathy when she had to take someone’s life. The Elite Assassin Academy was known for it is undying record of cleaning the streets of bad guys, so why would the grim reaper feel any pain while performing her duty.

“Captain, are you there?” Mica’s voice spoke through the grim reaper’s earpiece.

“I am here Mica, and I can see you. Just stay in position until I say otherwise.” The grim reaper responded as she clicked on her vision glasses to spot if their target was approaching.

“Anyone else feeling very hungry today?” O’Brian voiced, earning annoyed grants from everyone in the group.

“Aren’t you always hungry O’Brian?” Becca said as she sat behind black barells on the sidewalk in a full black outfit clickly quickly on her laptop.

“Can everyone just shut up.” Alexia’s said, clearly angry with their discussion.

“Alexia, the party pooper never misses having the last word in every dam discussion.” Grumpy Wyatt said.

“Ronda, your 12 o’clock now.” The grim reaper said as she fixed her sniper gun and laid flat on her stomach on the roof top, making sure to adjust the lenses properly for a clear shot.

“Roger that Captain.” Ronda said as she threw herself in front of the first black car and disaapeared instantly from view. The car came to a screeching stop to investigate the person that just landed on their vehicle. Behind the car, seven other cars stop as well. One man dressed in a black suit, stepped out of the front passenger seat from the first car and as he walked to examine the body, Alex on another roof top shot him straight in the head.

“Bingo.” Alex said boldly through his earpiece.

“Nice shot Alex, I let you take that one.” The grim reaper said as she shot straight through the windshield at the driver from the first car.

“I’m on the move Captain.” Ronda said as she pushed her body under the first car to plant the bomb, this was always the best job for her because she was the best arsonist.

“Keep a low profile this time please Ronda, we don’t want to scrape you from the floor.” Alexia said moving closer to the vehicles in the dark.

“Everyone just shut the hell up, focus and stand still.” The grim reaper said.

The men in the vehicles behind have all stepped out with guys in their hands. The target car remained in the centre with no movement. The reaper knew it was stupid to go charging in because it will only if them an open space to attack them, so she told her team to wait. The window rolled down from the car in the centre and she saw that was their target.

“What the fuck just happen Matthew?” The man from the open window said.

“I don’t know boss, the boys seemed to have knocked something, but I see that they have been shot and there is no body.” The man said.

“Are you ready to tango everyone? I don’t have to repeat the rules, do I?” The grim reaper spoke through her earpiece as she further adjusted her gun.

“We are ready.” The entire squad said through their earpiece.

“Game on.” The reaper said this and shot the man who came from speaking right in the heart. Ronda moved quickly and discreetly through the cars planting explosive and finally disappearing out of site.

“Captain check!” Ronda said as she speed down the ally as a gunshot was heard behind her. She blending with the dark walls to catch her breathe because the guns were finally blazing, and her job was done.

“Ronda meet up with Becca, she is at C4.” The grim reaper said as she continued to shot from the roof top. Alexia got closer to the cars and started fighting with six of the bodyguards and with the help of Wyatt they were kicking their asses.

“This doesn’t seem like a fair fight does it Alexia?” Wyatt said as he sent one of the bodyguards flying with a roundhouse kick.

“I think it’s fair enough we can manage six guys Wyatt.” Alexia said as she twisted the guy’s head.

“O’Brian, where the hell are you?” Mica asked.

“Right behind you.” He said as he shot the men that were circling Mica.

“It took you long enough.” Mica said annoyed at O’Brian’s late entrance.

“Alexia, Wyatt, Mica and O’Brian fall back now Alex and I will take it from here. Becca how is the security footage looking like?” The grim reaper said as she put her sniper gun in its case. She wore the case, hooked the zip line, and began to descend from the building. Alex on the other building did the same thing and they meet after 2 minutes.

“Roger that Captain.” The rest of them said in union as they fell back into the darkness of the night. Alex and the grim reaper took out their Glock 22 guns and began to shot the remaining mean until the reached the target car.

Alex shot both the driver and the second guard on the front passenger seat as the grim reaper opened the passenger seat and pulled the leader out.

“Mr Ravoli, a pleasure to meet you.” The grim reaper said smiling.

“What do you want from me? Who are you?” Mr Ravoli said looking weak as his eyes begged for mercy. One thing the man on the ground didn’t know about the grim reaper is that she doesn’t grant mercy, that’s just not who she is.

“Hey mister, why don’t you try begging?” Alex said as he smirked at the man.

“Please don’t kill me, I will give you all my money, I beg you.” Mr Ravoli cried. The grim reaper crouched and looked him in the eyes and shock her head.

“I don’t believe in mercy.” She stood back up, clicked her gun in place and shot him in the head and in the heart.

“Clean shot boss.” Alex said and starting turning to walk away.

“Everyone clear and meet at junction XD4.” The grim reaper said as she disappeared into the night.

“Roger that.” The entire squad said as they moved quickly into the night.

    Sofia awoke to the faint light of dawn creeping through the small window in her room, her body still aching but no longer burning with the searing pain from the capsule. The remnants of the drug lingered in her veins, leaving her weak, but she felt stronger than the night before. The haze that had clouded her mind had lifted, replaced by a sharp awareness of her surroundings.She shifted slightly in bed, her movements slow and deliberate. Her muscles protested with every effort, but she managed to sit up. As her eyes adjusted to the dim light, she noticed Alex sitting at the foot of her bed, slumped in a chair, his head resting against the wall. He must have stayed the entire night, she thought, her gaze softening for a brief moment.The exhaustion on his face was clear, even in his sleep. She didn’t want to wake him, but there were matters to attend to. They had lost precious time, and now they needed to prepare. Don Russo wasn’t going to wait for them to recover.With a quiet sigh,

    Alex kept his arm firmly around Sofia's waist as they made their way through the maze of corridors, his grip steady despite the turmoil swirling inside him. Sofia's breathing had become shallow, each step a clear strain as the effects of the capsule took full hold. She was trembling slightly, her body fighting against the drug that was sapping her strength.Sofia hated this. Every inch of her body ached with the betrayal of her own muscles, the burning sensation spreading like wildfire through her veins. She tried to focus on walking, to maintain some semblance of control, but each step felt heavier than the last. Her vision blurred, and she stumbled, her weight shifting precariously into Alex's arms."Easy," Alex murmured, tightening his grip to steady her. His voice was soft, but there was a tension there—worry he couldn’t hide."Don't... don't treat me like I'm helpless," Sofia muttered, her voice weaker than she intended. She didn’t want him, or anyone for that matter, to see her l

    The tension in the room was suffocating as Sofia struggled to maintain her composure. Her body was weakening quickly, but her mind was still sharp enough to catch the subtle glances and whispers among the assassins in the hall. She could feel the weight of their distrust bearing down on her. They were looking for a flaw, a crack in her defences that would confirm their suspicions.Alex stood close by, his arms crossed as he kept his eyes locked on Alexis. The venom in her gaze hadn’t lessened, and it was clear she wasn’t convinced that Sofia’s return was as simple as it appeared. The tension between them was palpable, an unspoken challenge hanging in the air, waiting for someone to make the first move.Master Carlos, sensing the brewing conflict, stood from his seat and walked toward Sofia. His expression was calm, but his eyes carried the weight of years spent leading assassins—he had seen betrayals, mistakes, and death far too often. He stopped just a few feet in front of her, his ga

    It was time for Alex and Sofia to depart and they were still not talking. Arthoro did not know how they would pull this off if they were still not talking to each other. He was standing outside to see them off because it felt like it would be the last time, he saw them.“Why are you seeing as off Arthoro?” Sofia asked with a frown on her face.“Is that bad? It can’t be as bad as you two not getting along” Arthoro replied with a bright smile.“Stop that.” Sofia frowned more while Alex just whined at the driver’s seat.“What are you talking about?” Arthoro said, playing dumb“Why are you smiling like that?” Sofia asked.“Time is very precious, so can we be on the road already? We don’t want someone spotting you here.” Alex finally spoke up. Arthoro kept his mouth shut and his lips formed a straight line.“Until we meet again.” Sofia muttered as she entered the car and Alex drove away. Alex’s car windows were tinted so nobody could see them as they drove through the streets.“How long?” S

    “What kind of allies are we talking?” Alexis asked as she finally sat down. “The kind that would back you back even if you have no hope left for the future.” Madam Lee said with another smirk. “Can you stop speaking in riddles and just tell me what you want already!” Alexis was upset and this conversation was nit helping her current state at all. “Why do you act like you are stupid Alexis? We will have a gathering with potential people soon because as far as I am concerned. You will not win this trial against Alex.” Madam Lee leaned back on her chair. “Why not?” Alexis asked, feeling a little offended. “Why do you think he was so bold to speak up today?” “Isn’t he always this bold?” Madam Lee sighed as she rose from the chair. “Do you really believe that is the only reason for his actions? Why are you behaving like you have no common sense at all?” Madam Lee added as she moved around the office. “I think it would be easier if you just told me what the problem really is instead o

    “Exactly what I mean Madam Lee. Sometimes Alexis doesn’t think with her head, so how can she lead a team of assassin’s with just a trait.” Alex said truthfully not just because this was Sofia’s plan, but he genuinely thought that she still had a long way before she could lead anyone. “Alex, you have never liked my presence in the team, and you are taking this opportunity to slander me.” Alexis said angrily. “I have to agree with Alex there, he is more of a right-hand man than you are to your captain Alexis.” Bianca said and everyone moved their head’s around to see where she was speaking from. “Thank you, Bianca.” Alex said and sat down. “From everyone’s observation of Alex, do you agree with his opinion?” Master Carlos asked the audience. “I have to agree with Alex too because we all saw that he was the best candidate for vice-captain but unfortunately Alexis stole that position.” Max the captain from the War Squad said confidently.

    Alex had finished his conversation with Sofia and had even watched her eat before leaving her in the car of Arthoro. He disliked the idea but right now only he could help her until she started feeling much better. As soon as he got far away from Sofia’s home and made sure no one would piece anything together, he turned back his tracker. Alex was speeding through the streets and transports until he finally reached the academy again.He scanned his hand so the door could open.“Access granted, welcome home Alex.” The computer-generated voice said before the door opened for him and he walked in. He was a little late for Alexis interrogation trial, but he knew that they would start with him. He wasn’t wrong there because it seemed like they, themselves were running late when he walked through the door of the trial room. His squad members seemed relieved to see him walk through the room because they had been calling him but because he d

    Giovanni was still very upset and the air around them was still very tense. Bernie felt like he was going to suffocate because Ava and Giovanni were glaring daggers at each other.To clear the air he coughed before speaking, “I will have to apologise on behalf of my partner, she is a little tense today.” Bernie said with a forced smile.“At least your partner has manners. Now, let us get right down to the reason you are actually here for. What do you want from me?” Giovanni said as he waited for one of the detectives to speak. Ava looked like she wanted to talk but Bernie decided he was going to beat her too it or else they wouldn’t get anywhere today.“Mr Russo, we want to ask you a few questions about what happened at the gala.” Bernie asked as he pulled out his small note pad.“Nothing special really.” Giovanni said and smirked purposefully as he directed it at Ava. “Answer

    Alex had already arrived at Sofia’s place, and he was sitting on the couch, watching her sleep soundly. For as long as he has known her she hardly slept so peaceful, so he decided to take this opportunity to admire her peaceful face. Alex was beyond relieved when Arthoro called last night to tell him that she was okay. Even though Sofia has rejected his affection for her countless of times, he still values her life more than anything. He knew for a fact that if she had not been found, he was going to make Alexis pay because she was the one who caused the mess in the first place. Sofia wined and groaned while her eyes were still closed, and Alex quickly stood up so he could see if she was in any kind of pain. He rushed onto the bed, trying his very best not to wake her but he failed miserably because she suddenly jolted from the bed, hand aiming at his throat, but he managed to stop her just in time. “I was so wrong about you sleeping peacefully. You almost ki
