The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel's Disguise

Earlier in the mall when Ru’s ringtone caught her attention, it was like a wake-up call for her. It was a reminder!

She could smile with those three brothers, make lame jokes, or even pretend to indulge herself into sugary goods. But at the end of the day, she had to go back to her own world of darkness.

Reality had always been harsh. She didn’t belong with them.

The ringtone was actually an alarm. It was time to leave. She made her way out the mall hastily and met up with the members of Black Mist waiting outside.

"Did you bring a ride for me?" Jack immediately nodded and gave her the keys along with the helmet.

Soon, she revved the bike and lurched forward on the busy road. Earlier through her subordinates, she had found out that there was a container being shipped out of Imperial cargo port.

They needed to stop the container and she couldn’t leave this work just up to her subordinates. From their mistake of last time in Hong Kong, she had learned her lesson.

It took them more than thirty minutes to reach the port because of the heavy traffic of Imperial Capital. Rows and rows of Cargo Containers could be seen on the seemingly deserted port.

It was weird but there weren’t many people around. Ru and her group parked the bikes at a distance and pulled on their disguise of a cap and mask on their face.

"Master, I brought yours as well," Ru looked at Connor who pushed two Baretta 92 pistols in her hand along with a briefcase. Although she would always prefer not carrying this metal stuff, she didn’t refuse it. The situation called for it right now.

"Try to catch people alive. We don’t want extra trouble for now." Hearing her order, the group of five nodded and spread out.

"This is one step closer. Don’t you dare to look back, Ru!" After giving herself a pep-talk, she took a deep breath and with her nimble body, she jumped up on the cargo containers. It was quite a distance from the ground considering there were about four containers placed one above the other.

The golden hues of the sun were slowly fading away leaving a dim light. But Ru’s senses always sharpened in the darkness. She could still make silhouettes of men patrolling in the group carrying Assualt rifles.

She wasn’t worried about them. Her eyes were looking around to look for any snipers. That won’t be advantageous for her people. That’s why she pulled out her newest version of tiny drones and controlled them to find anything amiss.

Finding some hidden snipers as she had expected, Ru smirked under her mask. Opening the briefcase, she assembled her suppressed Sniper rifle and took her aims. The sound of the shot was muffled but every shot was taken accurately.

After making sure of her surroundings, she slowly made her way towards the group which she saw keep guard of a particular Container. Using the growing darkness to her advantage, she hid in the shadows avoiding the light by all means.

"They asked us to deliver the stuff tonight." She heard those men talking and stopped.

"Tonight? Weren’t they going to send someone to collect the stuff?" Another one asked piquing Ru’s interest.

Not planning on waiting any longer, she pulled out her silver needles; her treasure and lifesaver. As she always says, she might not always be able to save people with these little things but she certainly could take life easily with these.

Unfortunately, she had to obey her own orders. No killing people unless necessary. Sighing in disappointment, she aimed the needle directly towards their neck and one by one the group of ten people who were keeping guard laid on the stone cold ground lifelessly. Not dead but paralyzed for sure.

Dusting her hands she stood before the Container eyeing it with interest. The container door had a password lock on it. The men on the ground gave her a horrified look but none of them could utter a single word or move a single limb. The needles were obviously laced with poison that could obstruct their movements easily.

While she was eyeing the lock, two members of Black Mist came to her side. Seeing her inquiring gaze, they answered, "Everything is under control. The rest are bringing the ones we caught." Connor answered while he gave a pitiful look to those men.

"Put them on a side and open the door," Ru ordered and they got to work.

As the door of the Container opened, Ru heard a gasp. She didn’t know who gasped but her reaction wasn’t much different. Because of the sight before her, Ru’s eyes got clouded with a murderous glint.
