Both the bosses entered the room and reached their agents. "I see you've met Ash already. She will be working with you for this mission." She shook hands with Mr. Arthur and gave a professional smile. The radiant look that she gave didn't seem as she was made for the dangerous world. Mr. Arthur led them all to the presentation room. Everyone took a seat. The lights went out and a screen appeared from the darkness.
"The emergence of evil on Earth." These words were seen on the screen as Mr. Arthur stood up and begin explaining.31Please respect copyright.PENANAIrDnlPFoD0
"We all know how hard we have worked to maintain the balance between purity and evil on the Earth. Moneto has always been in competition with us and it has faced almost the same problems as we did. It overcame it with quite brilliance as well. But unfortunately, now," he said with a pause, "we have encountered such a creature that is, sadly, out of our area of expertise. Both of us, Moneto and I, decided to pick our best agents for this case, in such a manner that it might become easier. 'Easier' in the terms that, without a professional's help, it will be impossible to overcome it. I hope it's clear till now?"31Please respect copyright.PENANAJkS4LKq6ck
Everyone nodded.
"Good Enough." A picture of humans emerged on the screen. "This is Morvath." He said, pointing at the humans. Ash and Ace exchanged disputed looks. "Sir, those are humans..." Ace gave a questioned look. "I know, Ace. It's kind of complicated as I tell u that the ability of Morvath is to can transform into any human on the Earth, whenever he wants." Our eyes widened. Any???? Human??? How do they expect us to catch him then??? "I know you both are doubtful at the moment, but it does have a weak point." Ash got focused to his words. "A mirror can reveal its true form. It can't look at reflections of itself." Ace scoffed, "Do u want us to point a mirror at everyone now?" 31Please respect copyright.PENANA5LRIJdSorc
"Ace, that is not the point. This has been our research so far. In addition, we also know that he wants to find one of the people of his kind who fled to Earth. The researchers will find the location of that creature by the evening. So, that is going to be where you start. Any questions?"
Ash shook her head. "I'll read the case thoroughly and think over it first. Then, questions." Arthur nodded, "As you wish." he turned to Ace, "you?" He gave Arthur a rather disappointed look and said, "I'd like to read the details first." Arthur nodded. "You can take Ash to your cabin. It'll help you both work things out between each other." Ace looked at Ash. Thought for a moment. He got up and moved to the door as he gestured her to follow him. She did so. A disgusted look appeared on her face. He made his way to the cabin. As Ash entered after he did, she confronted him.
"All because I am at your company and we are going to work together, does not mean you get to boss me around, okay?" She pinned him to the wall. "I'm not someone who follows orders . Neither do I like instructions. You could've led me to your office like a gentleman but you, men, have to reassure your masculinity thinking a woman will accompany you around. But keep in mind, not this woman. Now if your ego is satisfied, can we get to work?" He was astonished. "Okay my independent co-agent." Ace smirked and leaned in to her. "If you're done, should we work on the case?" He gestured to her arm that pinned him against the wall. She eased him. There was an awkward silence. Ash grabbed her file and sat on the sofa while Ace made his way to his office chair as he opened the document. They began scrutinizing.
