Coming home

_Steiners_

"Jeesh Lara, that was too cruel" I can't help to point out

"Cruel?" she said, sounding confuse

"The way you killed them!"

"Im an assassin, all ways of killing are cruel"

"But you should have save, his secretary, she's innocent"

"She's kissing her boss, that doesn't sound innocent at all"

"But still!"

"Ayers!!!" she shouted at me...that means I need to shut up, she's the boss after all

"Im sorry" I muttered Leo and Ashley stared at us

"...No...Im sorry,... your right, Im just not in the mood back then... I need to finish it quick" she spoke

"......No way!...am I hearing right? Lara Steiner is apologising...." Ashley giggled

"..you want me to change my mind?"

"No!" the three of us chorus, she smirk and looked at the window, did I mention, we are in a high class hotel that the Steiners owned, and we are on the top floor and its night and you can see the lights in the buildings, its really nice if you think about it.......

"Um, Lara...are you really...sincere?" ashley manage to asked her

she didn't move from her position

"Ok...how about a dare!" Ashley added, really no one would think, this girl is an assassin, Lara faced us and stared, a signal that she's listening

"Ok how about.........uhmmm" Ashley said thinking

"To not kill your next target" Leo continued

"what?"  Ashley and I duet

"Well, at least not as cruel as you did to your last target, let him leave for let's see a week"

"What? Leo are you crazy?that would be foolish!" I argued

"No! Leo is right, if you really want to prove that you can control yourself, do the dare!" Ashley agreed, well not on me

..............Silence............... waiting for her answer

".........fine"

Ashley smiled and Leo continued reading the newspaper, while on the other hand scratched my head....

"Are you sure about this, Lara?" she didn't answer, i sighed and  turned my attention my computer...well let's see, email.......

"Hey, Lara Your father sent a message" they turned their gaze on me, I opened the message and a hologram came up...what part of being a techno geek, did you not understand?

"Greetings, Sector Z!, your team have done an excellent job in New York and you will be rewarded hansomely, but there is nothing left for you to do their now, the main base needs your assistance more and it is time for you to come home, Since your training is done and now you are ready, you will take the first flight to California tomorrow, the company will be waiting for you!... this message will be deleted in 5, 4,3,2, deleted"

"............................................................"

"Looks like, were coming home" I sighed

"And I grow to love this place" Ashley sighed

"What do you think Lara?" All eyes are turned to Lara, she is the heir to the company and yet no one knows her, except us of course, no one knows that the Steiners has a child not even the Leradines, Steiners like surprises and probably this is one of them, they kept Lara as a secret,maybe that's why Lara is cold and sometimes cruel, she never had a parent, she receives gifts but she barely know them and she never had a friend...besides us and ....Rave...and since he's gone....she was never like before..... and now they'll introduce her to their world..........

"That's the order, we'll live first thing tomorrow" she said
