S.Q.U.I.R.R.E.L.
Just another day, yet another low class target. I am the world's finest assassin, trained from birth and genetically modified to be a super weapon of a man, and yet, I'm still constantly being sent after inconsequential people. I shouldn't complain, of course, it pays really well. I looked back at the mission information.
"Miah Solis, It's a shame she has to die, she's easy on the eyes" I said. I continued to look at the information, noting the important stuff. Usually people want it to look like an accident, and sometimes suicide. But on this one, there is a more specific request.
"She needs to go out quickly and quietly, and it needs to be obvious that it was murder. And leave the included item at the scene of the crime." The item in question was a metal badge of some sort, intricately designed and portraying what looked like a squirrel. Also included was her schedule and her address, it said she'd be home around this time, so I hopped into my light green Volkswagen beetle. I parked two blocks away and travelled by jumping from roof to roof until I got to her house. I dropped from her roof and picked the lock to her back door.
"She should be home any minute now" I whispered to myself, pulling out my knife. Just then, the front door opened. I hid myself in a side room, and cautiously peeked out, watching my target.
"I know you're here," she said. There is no way she knows I'm here, but I put my knife in its sheath just in case. I pulled out my silenced pistol, it's better to get the paranoid ones from a distance. I aimed down the sights, and just as I was about to pull the trigger, my gun flew out of my hands and got pinned to the doorframe of the room I was hiding in. I stared at it in shock, then I noticed the knife thrown expertly through the trigger guard and into the doorframe. I looked back at where my target was, but she wasn't there.
“That was the worst assassination attempt I’ve seen.” She said from behind me. I spun around, reaching for my knife, but it was gone.
"Do you at least have the item?" she said, idly twirling my knife. I decided to go along with her, she was in the advantageous position, after all
"The squirrel token?" I asked, reaching into my side bag for it
"That's not just a token, it's the only way into my organization" she responded. I pulled it out and looked it over.
"What's your organization, squirrel hunters?" I asked
"It's an acronym" she responded "we are an elite group of specialized assassins that protect the happiness of all people from the shadows" She flipped my knife around and handed it to me.
"I am the one who sent you this job" she said "It is our recruitment tactic. Although you need a lot more training" She reached a hand towards me,
"now come, I'll take you to your new home"
