It was midnight, along with heavy rain 🌧️ , the atmosphere was looking very tense ,
Meanwhile neon lights were reflecting on the roads , expensive cars were passing by, sirens of police cars could be heard from a distance. City was under tight control today
...
City looked alive but someone is about to die !
And now , in a luxurious mansion, guards were everywhere around mansion holding rifles and guns , CCTV camera around each corner , even motion sensors for unusual activity, dangerous guard dogs with sharp teeths and laser alarms for extra security.
Guard 1 :- Hurry up!
Guard 2 :- nobody could possibly get inside today!!
Someone was looking at them and smirking,
Unknown:- they really think they can stop me. Hah ! How stupid!
A black gloved hand lands silently on roof top no name no face ,only a shadow ...
Unknown:- I will have to find an entrance to get inside. The security here is very tight. Enough to stop anyone but they dunno I'm exceptional ( smirks )
He started analysing them
Unknown:- guard A smokes every 12 minute...noted
Guard B leave his position to use the washroom.. he won't come for sometime..noted
And this camera rotates every 8 second to corner ..noted
And my play begins NOW!!
He removes his shoes so they won't notice him by sound and waited for the right time. As soon as Guard A starts lighting his cigerette and camera rotated away from him he got his chance of it to the other side . He jumped and catched the balcony.
He silently climbed using drain pipes . Started for searching something when he got at top.
Unknown:- where is it? I need it. .
He got a glass cutter and use it to cut the window glass. Then silently got inside the mansion . Hides behind a wall. Hears some footsteps.
Guard 1:- is everything fine till now?
Another Guard:- yes sir! Everything is under our control!
Guard1:- any suspicious activity?
Another Guard:- No sir .
Guard 1 :- okay . Let's go.
They went from there and unknown person releases his breath he was holding.He was about to went outside but suddenly a maid walks past him. He was stunned but she ignored him and moved further.
Unknown:- I have to be careful.i must not get caught.
Then he moved further, hiding from everyone's gaze , silently just like a breeze.
Finally, he stopped in front of a room . It was a luxurious room and was on 6th floor.
He cracked the password and silently went inside .
An old billionaire was sleeping peacefully.
Unknown person looked everywhere in the room analysing everything. Luxury everywhere, paintings, red wine, golden decorations, statues and all other things.
He represented greed
Meanwhile old man was unaware of all activities , Sleeping peacefully
Unknown:- sleep peacefully, this is going to be your last sleep.
He quietly walk past him . Slowly just like a python who is silently coming to his prey. But his foot collided with the table and lo ! Wine bottle broke.
With the clashing sound billionaire woke and seeing someone in front of him , reached for his gun , but it was too late because someone like our assassin had already took up the gun and was currently just beside him.
But instead of begging old man said :- so they finally send you.... intresting....laughs
" You are just like your father, one day you'll realise that..."
Boom
Unknown:- you talk too much, rest in peace.
Mission completed!
Suddenly alarms started ringing, there was rush in all mansion, guards rushed towards billionaire's room but discovered a dead body with bullet on his head . Dogs started barking, bullets fly but our assassin had already predicted this , He escaped through rooftops . Everyone inside the mansion was shocked that despite this much high security how someone manage it to get inside and assassinated the billionaire.
Meanwhile our assassin had already flew they tried to follow him but he disappeared and rain hide the footprint.
**"""""""""""""""""""**
He arrived at a place , it was not a house, it was not even a mansion, it's front contained huge iron gates and armed guards, luxury mixed anger . It was a hidden headquarters.
And then he arrives ,
All armed guards bowed
Nobody smile
Nobody jokes
Just everybody feels fear .
He carried a whole mysterious and dominating aura , looking majestic and alone was looking more superior than whole force .
Some guards whispered among themselves
Guard 1:- finished another mission successfully!
Guard 2:- He's really terrifying
Guard 3 :- And of all he's only twenty two
All :- truly a MONSTER!!
The heavy doors of the headquarters closed behind him with a dull thud.
The guards lowered their heads as he walked past without acknowledging anyone. His footsteps echoed through the silent corridors until he stopped before a pair of black doors.
Knock.
"Come in."
He stepped inside.
The office was dimly lit. His father sat behind a massive desk, reading a file without looking up.
"You completed the mission."
"It was done twenty-three minutes ago."
"I know."
Silence filled the room.
His father finally closed the file and looked at him.
"Any complications?"
"None."
"Witnesses?"
"None."
His father gave a small nod.
"Good."
He waited, expressionless. He had long learned that praise never existed in this room.
His father reached into a drawer and placed another black file on the desk.
"Your next assignment."
He picked it up and opened it.
There was only a single photograph inside.
A girl.
She looked no older than eighteen. Ordinary clothes. Gentle eyes. A faint smile that didn't belong in a criminal dossier.
He frowned.
"This file is incomplete."
"It isn't."
"Where are her crimes?"
"There are none."
He looked up.
"Is she connected to a rival organization?"
"No."
"A government agent?"
"No."
"Then why is she our target?"
His father leaned back in his chair, his face unreadable.
"You don't need to know."
"I want to know who I'm killing."
"Not this time."
He asked:- but why ?
His father's voice was colder than ice.
"That girl is the greatest threat this organization will ever face."
His grip tightened around the file.
"What exactly is she?"
His father slowly stood and glared at him
"Your mission is not to ask questions."
He walked to the window, staring at the rain outside.
"It is to carry out orders"
A heavy silence settled between them before his father uttered the words that shattered every expectation.
"Find her... and kill her."

.. End of ch 1 ..
Please like my work and comment too for next chapter.
The door clicked shut behind him.
Silence returned to the corridor.
Without sparing a glance at the guards standing on either side, he walked toward his private office. His footsteps echoed through the marble hallway, measured and unhurried. Every employee he passed instinctively stepped aside, lowering their heads until he was gone.
No one dared to speak.
A few moments later, the heavy steel door of his office slid open.
The room overlooked the glittering city below, but he paid the skyline no attention. He removed his black leather gloves, placed them neatly on the desk, and set the thin mission file beside them.
His eyes lingered on it.
Victor:- isn't it too thin ?
A faint crease formed between his brows.
Victor :- "Strange..."
He flipped open the file.
The first page contained only a photograph.
A young teenager girl.
Calm eyes.
An unreadable smile.
He turned the page.
Name :- ROSE
Age :- 18
Last known location :- juvillen
Nothing more
.
He flipped another page.
Blank.
Another.
Blank.
His expression remained unchanged, but his fingers stopped moving.
Victor :- "Impossible."
Every target left behind a history—school records, bank transactions, family members, medical reports, travel logs. Even ghosts left footprints.
She had none.
He pressed the intercom button on his desk.
"Send Director Adrian to my office."
"Yes, sir."
Less than a minute later, a knock echoed through the room.
"Enter."
A middle-aged man in a dark suit stepped inside and bowed respectfully.
"You called for me, sir?"
Assassin slid the file across the desk.
"I want everything about her ."
The director opened it, scanning the few pages inside.
His confident expression slowly faded.
Adrian :- "...Is this all?"
Victor :- "That's what concerns me."
The director looked up.
"I'll have the Intelligence Division search every database we control."
"Not every database
He rose from his chair and buttoned his coat.
"Every database in the world."
The director hesitated.
"Sir... if someone erased her identity deliberately, this investigation could alert whoever is hiding her."
A brief silence settled over the room.
Then the assassin picked up the photograph again.
"If they're hiding her..."
His cold gaze rested on the girl's face.
"...then they've just given me a reason to find her."
He placed the photograph back into the file.
"Prepare the Intelligence Division."
"Yes, sir."
As the director hurried from the office, the protagonist looked once more at the closed file. The lights in the Intelligence Division dimmed as the largest monitor flickered to life.
Now ,Rows of analysts sat motionless, waiting.
The chief analyst adjusted his glasses before speaking.
"Sir, we've searched government records, financial databases, hospitals, universities, immigration logs... nothing."
Victor :-folded his arms.
"Nothing?"
"Yes, sir. It's as if she never existed."
Silence filled the room.
An analyst suddenly raised his hand.
"Wait... I found something."
Every pair of eyes turned toward him.
Victor:- Hurry up and show it !
"It's an old CCTV recording from three months ago. The quality is poor, but the facial recognition system returned a seventy-eight percent match."
Victor :-"Play it."
The footage appeared on the screen.
A quiet street.
The girl walked alone beneath the glow of the streetlights, carrying a backpack over one shoulder.
One analyst frowned.
"She looks... ordinary."
Seconds later, three masked men stepped into the alley, blocking her path.
Another analyst leaned forward.
"They're armed."
Victor:- let's see further
The room became completely silent.
One of the men reached toward her.
Then...
The screen glitched.
Static covered the monitor for barely two seconds.
When the picture returned...
All three men were lying on the ground.
"One clutched his shoulder."
"Another struggled to breathe."
"The third was unconscious".
And...
The girl was gone.
Everyone was too shocked to react .
The assassin kept his eyes fixed on the screen.
"Replay."
The footage played again.
He watched every frame.
"Pause."
The analyst froze the image just before the glitch.
The protagonist stepped closer.
"Zoom in."
The pixels sharpened just enough to reveal the girl's posture.
A faint smile crossed his lips.
"Interesting..."
The chief analyst looked confused.
"What did you notice, sir?"
"She wasn't surprised."
The room fell silent again.
He continued,
"She saw them before they surrounded her."
Another analyst swallowed nervously.
"So... she was trained?"
The protagonist's gaze never left the screen.
"No."
He paused.
"She was expecting them."
The analysts exchanged uneasy glances.
The chief analyst finally asked,
"Should we continue searching?"
The protagonist turned away from the monitor.
"Yes."
"For her?"
He picked up the mission file.
"Yes "
The last monitor went dark.
Silence settled over the Intelligence Division.
The protagonist picked up the file and closed it with a quiet snap.
"Continue digging," he ordered.
The chief analyst nodded. "Yes, sir."
"If anyone accesses this file..."
He paused.
"...report to me immediately."
"No one else."
"Understood."
Without another word, he turned and walked toward the exit.
The automatic doors slid open.
His bodyguard was already waiting outside.
"The car is ready, sir."
He slipped the file into his coat.
"Good."
The bodyguard hesitated to ask
"Where are we going?"
The assassin looked at the photograph one last time before closing the file.
"Her last known location."
"You intend to eliminate the target personally?"
A faint smile—cold and unreadable—appeared on his lips.
"I intend to find out why she's worth killing."
The elevator doors opened.
He stepped inside.
As the doors slowly closed, his eyes never left the photograph.
Far away, completely unaware...
The girl continued living her ordinary life.
She had no idea...
The deadliest man in the underworld was already on his way to find her.
