Chapter Two: The Assassin
+
In the dark office, Sakura sat in her large leather chair hidden in the shadows staring at the papers before her. Her emerald eyes scanned through the pages quickly taking in all its information. A frown then appeared on her face as she sighed slamming the papers on her desk. “Damn it!” she cried out in frustration.
She got up from her chair and stood before that large window behind her watched the city lights glow below her and the miniscule looking cars drove away.
It truly was a breathtaking site, to be here on the second tallest building in Japan. Her hand and her forehead both rested on the glass as she closed her eyes, “Damn it…” she whispered.
With the sudden ringing of her Phone, she sat back into her chair and answered it, “Yes?” she asked.
`You have some guests.' The male's voice on the other line said.
“Send them in.” Sakura's eyes flashed slightly as a sly smirk appeared on her face.
Putting the phone down, she leaned back in her chair and twirled around awaiting the arrival of her guests.
As her nearing guests came, she heard bits of their conversation.
“An Assassin? There's obviously something wrong with you're head!”
“What do you call yourself then? You've killed countless of people… so have an Assassin.”
The door opened and their conversation die.
Sakura, still hidden in the shadows smirked, “What do I owe the pleasure in seeing you here Kouga?” she asked as Kouga and two others took a seat.
“It's been a while hasn't it?” Kouga chuckled.
Sakura giggled slightly, “Yes, it has… it's good to know that time has been good to you.”
Kouga laughed, “Yes, time has been very nice to me indeed…”
“What can I do for you?” she asked as she eyed the other two smirking.
Kouga smiled, “Well, to put it simply, we need… your expertise…” he motioned towards Syaoran, “He is-”
“The New leader of Shadow Hunters, and the other is the second in command if anything happens to Li… I know.”
Kouga chuckled.
Sakura frowned slightly, “I know what you're going to ask, and I don't do gangs, and before you ask Hiiragizawa, yes, I know your names, I know your positions in the gang, and no Li, I am not a telepath.” She giggled slightly, “its just intuition.”
Syaoran growled glaring her way but unfortunately for him, it didn't seem to affect her, “You don't do gangs? Aren't you a part of one?” he asked.
“Unless it's possible for a gang to contain only 10 members then fine… but no… I am not in a gang, this is simply… a family business.”
There was a pregnant pause, before Kouga began to speak.
“Sakura… I know you've never really trusted gangs from you're experience… but think of it as a chance…”
“You mean she's the assassin you want to get?!” Syaoran cried out as he finally realized what was happening.
Kouga gave him a look, “Of course she, if she wasn't, what are we doing here?”
“But…” Syaoran began.
“Syaoran, Give her a chance… Just because she's a girl doesn't mean she can't do it… Look at Tomoyo and Meiling.” Eriol said.
Sakura smiled his way, “Kouga, I've taken a liking to most of you're members…”
Kouga chucked, “Yes well, Eriol always is a charmer.”
Eriol smirked, as Syaoran glared.
“Obviously, it's too bad that Daidouji girl snagged him… Don't worry Hiiragizawa I'm not that type of girl… I won't go killing you're girlfriend.” Sakura said seeing a flash of worry in his eyes, “Now back to business, you mention that with me, being in you're gang, will be a chance… I'm guessing you're problem is with the Bloods.”
Before any of the three could reply Sakura continued, “Implying isn't you Kouga… nor is blackmail.” She sighed.
“Whoever said I was implying?” he asked, “You assume, that just because I mention the word chance, I'm implying that you can get your revenge?”
Sakura smirked, “No, to assume, is to make an ass out of you and me… I just simply made you confess without realizing…”
“I-” Kouga stopped and chuckled, “always the fast one.”
Eriol smirked and Syaoran blinked.
Another sigh was heard, “You know what Kouga? Fine… I'll do this little thing for you, but you'll owe me… also, just because I'll be a part of your gang doesn't mean you'll still be getting any special treatment from me, any Shadow Hunter who gets in my way is as good as dead.”
Kouga nodded understanding, “Fine.”
Syaoran saw a flash of emerald from the moonlight as the chair twirled back and forth flashing in the moon from time to time. He looked in Eriol's way who simply shrugged.
“One more thing… When I have my training sessions, make sure nobody bothers me. You know how I get.” She said.
“Kouga!” began Syaoran as he let all the information sink in, “You're actually going to let this little girl in when she threatened the gang?”
Kouga glared at him, “Stop being a hypocrite Syaoran, I know very well that if a Shadow Hunter got in your way, or bothered you during your early morning training they'd be dead before they could say Bye.”
Eriol chuckled slightly, “It's true you know Syaoran.”
Syaoran growled angrily.
Sakura giggled slightly earning another glare.
Sakura stepped into the light, causing Syaoran and Eriol to see her for the first time that night, “You!”
Sakura let her head fall slightly to the side before grinning, “Yes… me.”
Kouga looked from Syaoran to Eriol to Sakura, “You know each other?”
“We go to the same school.” Syaoran replied.
“I didn't know you went to Tokyo Heights Sakura… Syaoran, Eriol you never told me you knew Kinomoto Sakura!” Kouga said.
Sakura laughed, “Kouga are you kidding me? They didn't know a thing about me… I tend to lay low at this school.”
The three of them walked out of her office, “You? Lay Low at school? Since when?” Kouga asked.
“Since I transferred… you know, Tokyo isn't the same as Tomoeda… I like it better there… it's where all the action is at.” Sakura laughed.
Syaoran glared at her not understanding what they were talking about, While Eriol chuckled seeing Syaoran not taking this shocker all too well.
Kouga chuckled, “I guess Tokyo Heights is too posh for you huh Sakura.”
Sakura shrugged.
They took the Elevator down to the fifth floor.
“What are we doing here?” asked Syaoran still clearly angry.
Sakura rolled her eyes, “Unless you want me to wear the same outfit everyday, I have to get some clothes.” She said.
Once the elevator door opened, it revealed a large room with clothes.
“Why is you're closet here? Do you live in this building or something?” asked Syaoran.
Sakura shrugged as she packed up her clothes, “Well, if you're too busy with work, we can't exactly go home to change so we have extras here, and I didn't plan on showing you all where I live so… this is where I'm getting my clothes.”
Eriol and Syaoran raised a brow but didn't say anything.
Once she was done they took the elevator again and Sakura greeted the guard.
“Evening Kai-san.” She smiled brightly at him.
Syaoran frowned, this girl seemed too innocent to be an assassin…
“Good Evening Sakura-sama.”
Sakura stopped walking, “Is Touya back?” she asked.
“Yes, they all arrived just a few moments ago, you just missed him.”
Sakura thought for a moment, “Alright, thanks! Oh… and if he asks, tell him I'm going to be away for a while, if he's his usual self, just tell him to call my phone before he plans on beating the closest person to him to a pulp.” She said as she waved bye.
Kouga chuckled as he led them back to the car and they were off.
They headed towards Shadow Hunters HQ where high ranked stayed and slept in.
Syaoran walked in first leaving Sakura giggling, “Doesn't seem to like me much ne?” she asked Eriol.
“Don't worry, he'll get used to you…”
Sakura nodded as she followed behind Kouga inside with Eriol by her side.
“Oi! Kouga who's the chick?” one member named Riku said, he's red eyes flashed with mischief.
Sakura glared as she shot a look at Kouga before looking up at Riku.
Sakura walked up to him looking him in the eye, “Listen here Ling Riku, yes, I know who you are, I know who everyone is in this mansion, and want all you males in this room to spread this around to every other male who lives in this household who is not present. I'm not interested in any of you, I'm here to work, and if you get in my way, I'll be sure to make you and your pride…” she pointed downwards with the knife that had suddenly appeared in her hand before continuing, “Are cut off… literally.”
“Alright! Alright!” he said as he backed away.
Sakura stepped away from him and smiled brightly putting the knife away, “Good.”
Kouga motioned her to follow him and once she was gone, whispers erupted.
“That was crazy! Did you see how fast she had that knife come out of her sleeve?”
“Did you see that deadly look in her eye?”
“So that's… the assassin? She's a babe.”
More comments were exchanged as Syaoran sighed while Eriol chuckled.
“I didn't know she had it in her.” He said.
Tomoyo giggled, “Neither did I… come to think of it, she's kinda cute! Do you think she'll wear my designs?”
“For the assassin's sake, I hope not.” Meiling muttered under her breath.
“What was that?” Tomoyo asked sweetly.
Meiling stuttered, “N-nothing!”
“Oi! Syaoran! Eriol! What is she like?” some people asked.
Syaoran was about to reply when the girl in question and Kouga walked downstairs again.
“Thanks.” They heard her say.
Kouga nodded as he turned towards all the Shadow Hunters.
“Everyone… I would like you all to meet, Kinomoto Sakura, the assassin.”
Sakura smiled innocently, “Hi.” She greeted.
Tomoyo broke out, “CUTE!!” Tomoyo ran up to her, “Ne, Kinomoto-san, gomen ne for not noticing you in the halls, demo, you are too cute! Please let me design you your gear!”
Sakura unfazed by the outburst grinned, “Sure… I've seen your designs. They're flawless…”
Tomoyo cheered in glee, it was almost a wonder how these two seemingly innocent can be so deadly.
Meiling sighed, “and the torture begins.”
“Let Tomoyo have her fun.” Eriol said.
Before any more could be said by anyone, a loud high-pitched ringing interrupted everything.
“Ops…” Sakura said as she took out her cell phone, her emerald eyes glanced over the number, answering it quickly with a `Yeah?' she held it far from her ear as yelling was heard on the other side.
`Where the hell are you?! Didn't you read those damned papers? What happened to that brain of yours?? Oh wait… YOU NEVER HAD ONE!! NOW GET BACK HERE BEFORE-'
Sakura hung up as she shot an apologetic look at Kouga who merely smiled.
Sakura stepped out of the room as her phone began to ring again and shouting could be heard from door that was only half way closed.
“Touya! Touya!! TOUYA JUST SHUT THE HELL UP! How many times do I have to tell you to calm down? Now, If you hurt Kai in any way, I'll be sure to inflict that pain right back to you! If you're going to be so immature and treating me like a 5 year old, pass me to Yukito and I'll explain everything to him instead!”
There was a pause before the shouting continued, “I don't care about that stupid report! If you actually thought before you act you might actually realize I'M WORKING ON IT! Why the hell do you think I'm gone?!”
Every Hunter winced as the shouting continued and Syaoran wondered what the hell was happening.
“You can't do that!! That isn't fair! Touya you're being stupid! I have connections you know, I'll get those assignment even if you don't give them to me! If I'm so slow how come I just learnt something new?! IT'S CALLED HANGING UP!”
With that, she hung up and came out of the room, anger flashed in her eye daring anyone to mess with her at the moment, with a sigh she looked up and noticed everyone staring at her, “Oh… Sorry…” she said laughing nervously, “Family problems?” she said unsure is that could cover it.
Kouga chuckled along with some Hunters at Sakura's innocence in her reply.
This was defiantly going to be an interesting experience.
