Disconnected (For Chris ONLY O.O)

[Kitten]

Lighting a cigarette, Madison knocked on the large oak door. A deep, husky voice came from beyond the door, beckoning her in. As the 22 year old opened up the door, she was greeted by three men. One man sat behind a very large desk. He was all in black, his ebony hair was greased back and not an item of clothing was out of place. His dark brown eyes watched as the young woman entered his office. The two men either side of the important looking one were also wearing black suits. Their hair was slicked back the exact same way, but these two men wore dark shades. Their legs were shoulder width apart and their arms behind their back. Even though they were wearing shades, Madison could feel their cold eyes upon her. Madison kept her steel grey eyes upon the important looking man. His hands were now folded neatly on the desk, resting gently ontop of a small pile of papers. Madison sat down in the large leather chair infront of the desk. She crossed her legs and leant forward, "You rang?" She said in a ghoulish voice.

"I have a job for you Madison" Said the important looking man, lifting his hands up and sliding the papers over to her.

Madison read the papers then looked up to the important looking man, "You're kidding right?" She said in her strong British accent before taking a puff from her cigarette. "You want me dead don't you?" She complained as she stood up from her seat, slamming her hands down upon the desk.

The important man didn't even flinch, "Madison...sit down....please...." He replied calmly. "I assigned this to you because you are the best. The very best," He said, "This man is a threat to us," He sifted through the papers and found a picture of another very important looking man. He was the Don of another mafia group. Madison had heard of and seen this man plenty of times before. She had always tried to keep a very low profile with the other mafia groups in the city.

"Hmm...This is going to be a tough one though Sir...he's going to be protected 24/7. I will do my very best though..." She looked to her boss.

"I don't want you to do your best Madison...i want this man dead!" He ordered.

"I will do my best..." She growled as she stood up once more, taking the papers from her boss, turning on her heel and vacating the room. Once Madison had left the building she had gone back to her appartment across town on her motorbike. Once she was inside her appartment, she studied the case she was given. It seemed that the man she was after was training a new addition to his family. She would have to be warey of him. But to this date, Madison was undefeated. She was always the hunter, never the hunted.

Madison knew everything about everyone she'd ever hunted. She knew exactly where this man would wine and dine, she even knew which dry cleaners he would go to. She knew all the bars he would go to. This would be a perfect place to start. She knew that he would be at the Dragon Bar from 11pm onwards. This is where her mission would begin.

Madison slipped herself into a slinky black dress that went well with her waist length ebony black hair. She put on a cute pair of heels and tied her hair back. She never saw the point in putting a disguise on because she was never caught. Madison made her way down to the Dragon Bar and took a seat at the bar where she could get a perfect view of the entire bar. Even though it was dimly lit she was able to define each individual face. She checked her watch, it read 23:15. Just as she looked up, in he walked with four other men. They all made their way to the bar and sat down. Madison managed to catch eyes with one of the younger looking men. That must be who her case was training up. He didn't look too threatening. Maybe this job was going to be too easy? Madison took out another cigarette and lit it, sipping her red wine and glancing over at her case and his cronies every now and then.

((I hope this is okay Chris...i really wasn't sure how to end the post so if you want me to change anything just say and i will okay?!))

(it was perfect, hope ya like mine)

Don Tony was at the club that night with three of his henchmen, his two private guards Ralph & Jons, and his newest addition, Slick. While Ralph and Jons went about carrying on their normal bnusiness, the Don said something to Slick and pointed to the bar, probably to go get drinks, and so Slick got up and headed that way. Once Slick left the Don and his two cronies huddled together and started talking a little more silently than before, about that time a man with a tropical shirt sporting the "classic tourist" look sat down next to Madison and started talking right away.

"You know I couldn't help but see that you're sitting all alone and I thought I'd come keep ya company, espacially with those rather bad fellows over there..."

The man said pointing to the mobsters. This man had a thick mustache and looked to be in his late thirty's with slightly bright brown hair.

"Not that I'm saying that you'd need protecting from the big bad mafia man, but they say he's followed by a man who is the greatest assassin of all time, or at least that's what he's being trained to do, they say he's going to be the ultimate killer and take down any opposition in this city that stands in his boss's way, god could you imagine? They say this ultimate killer guy was found as an orphan and raised by the mob, sorta like the "raised by wolves" story ya know? And since he was raised from birth into the mob with no other family, they say this guy has no remorse, pity, or fear of anything, I mean hell he has nothing to lose really...wow...let that sink in and it'll make ya go crazy, a killer with nothing to look forward to and nothing to lose."

In the midst of this man yammering on quite fast at the mouth, Slick had disappeared from sight, and even though madison didn't seem to want company, this slightly tipsy strange man was talking to her about killing and the mob of all things.

Madison's eyes never left the four men now they were settled. She scanned from one man to the next. Her steel eyes finally resting upon the youngest looking man of the group. The Don had pointed to the bar and the young man went off. She then saw the Don and his two other henchmen talking between themselves. If only she could get a little closer to hear what they were saying.

Just as Madison was about to get up, a man in a bright tropical shirt came her way and sat down next to her. She groaned to herself and lit another cigarette, resting her head in her other hand whilst the slightly drunk man begun to natter away at her. His words went in one ear and out the other. This was until he mentioned the man that the Don had been training. She sat up and looked to the man. For the first time since the drunken man had sat down, Madison looked at him with the slightest bit of interest. "Hmm...he sounds like my kinda guy," Madison said puffing away on her cigarette. She downed her wine and kept her eyes upon the Don and his cronies. The man with the brightly coloured shirt was still talking away but Madison had now switched off from his mindless drone.

After about ten minutes, she sighed and looked to him, "Do you ever stop talking?" She asked as she stood up and slipped off her chair, moving to a more private part of the bar. She hadn't seen the young man for a while now and she had wondered whether he had disappeared to a more private area as well. Where Madison was now sat, she had a perfect view od the Don and was able to hear almost every single word that he spoke. Casually, Madison lit another cigarette and ordered another glass of wine. It seemed that she was going to be there for quite a while.

Don Tony was in the middle of saying something when Madison moved to hear his words.

Tony: Yeah have you had that new cotton candy?

Ralph: You mean that blueberry-strawberry blend?

Jons: Oh that stuff is awesome.

Tony: Simply delicious, simply superb.

"Amazing huh? You move in to get closer and now they talk about mindless babble."

It was the man from before again, this time there was something weird about his voice, he didn't sound the slightest bit drunk anymore and he was talking normal now.

"What's even more amazing..."

The man continued in a younger sounding more natural voice as he took off his tropical shirt to reveal a black long sleeve button up shirt.

"Is that you sacrificed visual to hear them better..."

The man took off his mustache now, it had been a fake one, and then ran his hands through his hair and shook out the coloring to revealing his darker hair.

Slick: And now here I sit...having drinks with my enemy...care to dance?

[Kitten]

Madison frowned ever so slightly when all she could hear was mindless banter about candyfloss. She hadn't realised that she'd already smoked her cigarette down to the butt. She took out yet another one and lit it when, from the corner of her eye, she noticed the man in the tropical shirt closing in once more. She was about to shoo him off when he started talking in the soberest of manners. She turned her head slightly and looked up to him. Her eyes widened as he took off what turned out to be a disguise. Madison smirked and turned back to her glass of wine, "Clever boy," She said in a dark voice as she took a deep sip of her wine. "I was beginning to wonder where you'd got off to," She stated, almost honestly. "But...i'm sorry, i don't dance with strange men," Madison replied with a wink, downing her wine and standing up. "You'd best watch that cute back of yours. It'd be ashame to mess up such a beautiful creation...." She said, her voice drifting off as she begun to make her way out of the bar...

[OrderOfTheBlackGuard]

As she turned to walk off Slick was now in front of her, a glance back at the table would show that he was there also, but he was only human as she was, how was that possible. The slick in front of her grinned and began to talk.

Slick#2: Do you know what it's like...being raised by wolves?

He was advancing towards her slowly swirling a curved knife in his hand, inching her back towards the table where the other slick was and began to talk.

Slick#1: You know it's rude to walk away in the midst of a conversation...but as I was going to say, I'm not a stranger at all, you do have details files on me, and in this day and age that counts as knowing someone.

Slick#1 sipped on a scotch as he watched for Madison's reaction, then he noticed.

Slick: Oh yes, the cool thing about being someone's right hand man that's important is that you get body doubles.

The "Slick#2" laughed as he walked into a streak of light in the club and up close he didn't really resemble Slick that much. The body double bowed as if to a performance and walked away.

Slick: So we gonna tango or not?

[Kitten]

Madison caught glimpse of the small knife that Slick#2 had and begun to slowly inch back to the table where the original Slick was sat. She knew that he wouldn't hurt her. It was too much of a public place to do so. And besides if he was going to do it, he would've already! "Hmm...i can only imagine what it's like being raised by wolves...but becoming the wolf itself? Well...now that's another story..." Madison replied philisophically. When her backside touched the table she turned around and leant her hand on it. "You wanna tango?" Madison growled, grabbing his hand, "I'll show you how to tango mister," She pulled Slick up and literally yanked him onto the dancefloor. She placed on hand upon his shoulder and held his other hand tightly. "You know my boss warned me about you...he said you were the slippery type. His words haven't let me down as of yet..." Madison's steel grey eyes caught gaze of Slick's for a moment, her cheeks going ever so slightly red and she looked away again.

[OrderOfTheBlackGuard]

Slick looked at the DJ playing the music and some snazzy music started to play that filled the club with life almost, Slick dipped and twirled Madison like a professional dancer and laughed as she spoke of her boss.

Slick: Well I hate to tell you but if I were slippery you would have trouble dancing with me now wouldn't you?

He asked as he gripped one of her hands and slung her a few feet away and brought her back into his arms.

Slick: So in essence, he has already let you down hasn't he?

Slick slid back a couple feet from Madison and drew a long barreled silver revolver like the cowboys in the wild west used. It was as if everyone in the club didn't even care someone had drew a gun, they just kept partying.

Slick: Sorry to spoil your fun miss, but it's time to get down to business, how much is your boss paying and who is he paying you to kill exactly? All four of us? Just Tony? All of the city's wise guys?

[Kitten]

Madison spun and twirrled and danced like there was no tomorrow. She flew in and out of Slicks arms like they were two professional dancers. "Mmmm no no, he's still pretty on the ball so far i would say," Madison said disagreeing with Slick entirely. As Slick stepped back a few feet and drew a gun, Madison didn't even bat an eye lid. She'd looked down the barrel of many guns before. This wasn't the first nor would it be the last. She tilted her head slightly and looked to Slick, lighting yet another cigarette, "Hmm...why don't you put your little toy down Slick? You and i both know that i wouldn't reveal that information...." She turned on her heel but looked back at him, "Thanks for the dance sweetcheeks...but for now....i have bigger fish to fry," She winked at Slick once more and disappeared into the mass crowd of people who hadn't even noticed the fact that Slick had drawn a gun. She knew that he would follow her out of the bar. But if he didn't follow her then, she knew that he would trace her down and seek her out eventually.

Madison slowly made her way down the street, the darkness of the early morning air overwhelmed the streets into pure blackness.
