Tanya
I was still shocked to see Tristan and some other people in the room. I thought for a moment about why I was called cause I'm sure it is not for a mission. It is not as if I don't go for a mission,I do go well but Edwardo doesn't put me and Tristan together because of the familiarity between us.
"You called for me boss."I said after regaining my composure.
"I thought you were going to keep looking around like a barbarian." Edwardo said, glaring at me.
"I'm sorry boss,"I apologized with a bow.
"Join them,"He commanded, looking back at the table.
I stood beside Tristan cause he is the only one I interact with and he smiled at me faintly before returning his gaze back to the table.
"The man will be inside the club with his guys and the briefcase would be very close to him because he wouldn't want it to be out of sight, so check well.''Edwardo started addressing us and I paid keen attention.
He continued speaking; "Now,this is how you go about it. Since the man is a lover of women,Tanya,you would be the one around the man because of your smartness. Seduce the man first and take the bag from him." I couldn't help but chuckle when he said that and he frowned.
"Does this look like a joke to you?"He was visibly angry.
"Not at all sir." I quickly apologize before proceeding to explain. "I just feel it's quite impossible to take the bag just like that,the man won't be easily carried away,I suggest we use something stronger to knock him out."I said,he kept quiet for a while probably thinking about what I just said.
"She is the right boss, it won't be an easy task to take something precious to someone like that so easily. He would definitely have a lot of people watching over it and he won't be asleep as well," Tristan supported.
"So what do you suggest we do?" Edwardo asked.
"Let's drug him, it would be easier that way." I suggested.
"That is a great idea. So how do you plan on distracting the guards because they would also be at alert if anything should happen to their boss. So tell me how do you plan on distracting them?"Edwardo asked, leaning forward to look at me.
"We fight them off and scare them away if possible. We can't be this much and just sit down idly." I said with seriousness.
"Fight them off, does that mean killing people? "Mia asked fearfully.
"Of course not, we don't kill, we steal and fight only," I replied with a soft smile at the end.
"Do you all agree to that?"He asked, looking at everyone.
"As long as it doesn't involve the cops,then it's okay," Tristan said.
"That would be impossible because other people would be there and they would want to call the cops,"Edwardo said.
"To keep us safe from the cops,we have to buy the whole of the club or better still do it silently and we will know how to take care of everything else by ourselves," Tristan said calmly. It's like he was born for this.
"Just make sure you guys deliver the goods in the bag to me,that is all that I'm after," Edwardo said greedily as always.
"When are we going boss?"One of the guys in the room asked.
"You all have less than one hour to prepare,and note this down. There are surveillance cameras in the club,be extra careful," Edwardo said.
"We will need more weapons depending on how things would be over there,I think we should take some along with us,"Tristan said.
"I have no problem with that,just remember this,Tanya should be with the man to seduce him,if possible get the bag without any confrontation but if he acts too stubborn,drug him with this." Edwardo said, placing a tablet on the table.
"One pill of this would make him sleep for two straight days. Two pills would make him sleep twice."
"And three pills?" Mia asked curiously.
"Well let's say three pills would send the bastárd to the heavens pretty early," he smiled somewhat evilly and Mia swallowed.
Edwardo continued addressing us.
"Mia would be there to assist you but she won't be part of the fight. Give her the bag immediately you retrieve it from the target's hand so she can bring it outside. I would be waiting for her outside to take the bag and her. I don't want her to risk her life because she is still new." He said then turned to face Tristan.
"Tristan, you are leading the mission. You are the leader of this operation and why I am making you the leader is because of the experiences you have had don't let me and yourself down,okay?" He said and Tristan only nodded with a serious face.
"Good. I will be hanging around to take her, make sure she comes out with the bag on time and you guys should also be careful when coming out," Edwardo said.
"We will but I thought of something now won't we look suspicious if we all go in there at the same time?'' Tristan said, making everyone quiet with different thoughts running in our heads.
"Yeah,you are right Tristan,I think some of us should be outside while some of us go in, maybe two or three people should be inside." One of the guys said.
"Exactly what I'm also thinking," Tristan said in approval of what the guys said.
Edwardo was about to talk when one of his personal guards came in to whisper something into his ears.
"I have to go now, I have to attend to something urgent. You guys should plan out the rest,take whatever you want from the weapon room and remember you have less than twenty minutes to get yourselves prepared, do not delay." He sounded the final warning before walking out.
"Let's get to work and be fast about it," Tristan ordered, then he walked out.
We all walked out of Edwardo's room to our separate rooms to get prepared...
"Are you okay? "I asked Mia when I noticed how nervous she looked.
"I don't think so. I'm scared, I have never done something like this before, it feels strange," She said fearfully.
"You don't have to be Mia. I want you to see it as something you have to start doing, something you love doing. Everyone of us started from somewhere and it's normal for you or anyone to get scared, this is your first, but don't worry you will get over it. Learn to fight your fears and don't let your fears fight you, this is what I call survival," I said tenderly and she nodded.
"Now take a deep breath and see this as a fight to survive and you will surely survive because I trust and believe in you," I added.
"Thanks sis, I'm very calm now, and please watch after me." She pleaded cutely.
"Of course, I will. You should just trust me and do whatever I ask you to, okay?" I said and she nodded.
"Good, now let's get dressed," I said, getting up from the bed where we both sat.
.
TRISTAN
"We are ready." I said to Edward as we all stood before him.
"That is good, I wish you all the best and I will join you there later in the next twenty to thirty minutes," He said, sipping from his expensive wine.
"Alright boss."
We all walked to the car which was meant to take us to the club, each of us were dressed casually apart from Tanya and Mia who were dressed like prostitute. It annoys me to see Tanya dressed that way but there is nothing I can do about it. We all have no choice, we are doing what we love doing best. Tanya stared at me and flashed me a smile as our eyes locked. I also returned it happily, this is the first mission we would be doing together.
"We are here,"The driver announced.
I kissed my necklace which is my lucky charm before coming down from the vehicle.
Ready for action.
