Infiltration

Chapter 1

Sweat ran down my thighs as I kept up the pace.
"Come on, Rouge, hurry up, you still have the whole floor to do." Erika demanded, gesturing to the rooms around me.
I groaned in response. Ugh I can't believe the police force dispatched me to this place and for what a playboy and his henchmen.
"Rouge, quit daydreaming!!" I sensed Erika getting more and more impatient with me and sighed. Every single day this bitch doesn't leave me alone. Its fine the sooner i finish the mission, the sooner i can get out of here. I ambled down the halls, going in and out of rooms, cleaning them inch from inch until i had finished the whole floor.
My legs felt like they were going to crash at any point but i continued moving on until i got back to the main hall. Mr Kenzaki was waiting near the hotel desk for all his staff to join him. I swear that man never ages, eved since i came here three years ago, he's looked the same.
"Rouge, You know the Vip's are having another party, right?" Sakiko, one of my "work" friends, walked next to me.
"Another one?" Ugh That idiot playboy's always having parties.
"Yup, third one thid month."
I was about to respond but as soon as a limo pulled up in the drive way all i heard were screams.
"Eisuke Ichinomiya!!! Can I get Your Autograph?"
"Oh Eisuke!!"
There's the playboy, finally showing his face and shoving past everyone else, is his groupies. Boy, I do not envy him.
Mr Ichinomiya, in all honesty was kind of attractive but definitely not my type. He just seems like a spoiled child to me.
"Oof!" Some dark haired woman shoved into me causing me to trip. "I'm so sorry." I looked uo and froze, oh shit, I could get fired for this.
"Get Off Me." Ichinomiya removed my hands from his shoulders and let me drop to the ground.
Well Fuck you too. "I'm So sorry, Mr Ichinomiya." I kept my voice gentle and acted genuinely sorry, I don't want to loose this job, my dad would slaughter me if i lost this case.
All his groupies started throwing insults at me in jealousy and i had to supress a laugh, at least i got closer to him than the rest of them would have.
"Ah, You look like the perfect date." A stranger took my hand and guided me to the stairs.
"Excuse me, Sir, I work here." I tried to see his face but all i saw was light brown hair and a red fedora.
"That's fine, I'm sure your boss wouldn't mind."
His hand held onto mine tightly even as we got into the elevator.
The mysterious guy looked at me, his eyes looked welcoming and warm with a glint of mischief.
He was smiling and for some reason, I felt at ease around him.
"You've never been to the IVC before, have you?"
"No, I haven't."
"Well, I hope you'll have fun."
The elevator doors opened with a sharp ping and the guy left me standing there.
"Wait, i never got your..." I sighed, intaking the sights around me. This is impressive even for a spoiled child.
The amount of people here is nerve wracking, what if i fall over or accidentally spill a drink on-
"Oi, Watch it!" Balding middle aged man barked at me as i realised i had ambled straight into his chest and caused him to spill his drink.
"I'm Sorry! I'll do anything to make it up to you."
"Oh Anything? Then Why don't we go somewhere more private and you could pay me back."
"He's already taken." I felt a hand on my shoulder and the guy glanced at the hand on my shoulder.
"I'm Sorry, Mr Kisaki."
"That's Alright, my pet likes getting away from me."
Mr Kisaki? Isn't that the famous artist?
Once the guy had dissapeared, i turned around and was facing Ota Kisaki.
"Thank you, Mr Kisaki."
"No sweat but you owe me a drink."
"Aren't the drinks free here?" My eyebrow rised in confusion.
"Exactly, but you're the one that has to get it."
"Fine." I went over to the table and grabbed a drink and brought back over to Mr Kisaki.
"Thanks Pet." That buffoon of an artist giggled and then walked into the crowd.
Now i have to get out of here. But how?
My eyes danced around the room in search for an exit, the elevator was being used and the only other exit is a place where only certain members of a club can enter. Guess I'm going that way, stupid really but that's my only option if i don't really want to get harrassed again.
I casually slipped out of the noisy mass of people and into a cool dark hallway where only light voices could be heard.
Some mandarin drifted into my ears and i shivered at the tone of the speaker's voice. It was deep and he sounded angry.
Cautiously, I went up to the door that concealed the mandarin speaker. Inside of the room were three men transporting items from shelves and placing them in boxes, wait are the items going up for auction?
My mind ran wild with thoughts but they stopped after my foot caught the door as it opened more and a tall, slightly intimidating man came up to me and i fell on the floor.
"One word about this and I will end you." Oh that must be the mandarin speaker, why did he have to be so attractive.
Even though, my life was on the line, it was like i was more turned on than scared.
Damn it.
"I won't speak a word of this, I promise." I refused to look him in the eye, knowing it would only spur the heat to continue more viciously.
He had his gun resting against my forehead In an instance, as if sensing my hesitance. I gathered courage to look at him and realised i was dealing with a man from the mafia.
At least now, I have more dirt on Ichinomiya.
"Well, Get lost then." The guy slithered away and slammed the door behind him and i was once again left alone in the hallway.
I decided to keep walking, keeping my wits about me. Remember the training, Rouge.
"No weakness." I heard my father's voice at the back of my skull and inwardly shivered. No weakness.

When i entered the hallway, i didn't realise how long it was and how dark. The darkness wasn't something i was a fan of and anxiety knawed at me, almost making it harder to keep going and then a door opened and i ran into what i thought was an empty storage room.
"What was that?" A gruff voice drifted from over the corner of the room.
I paused before, hiding behind a shelf.
"I don't know, Give me the torch, I'll investigate."
Oh shit, he's coming over here.
I stepped back and ended up knocking something off the shelf.
Fuck.
"Hey!"
"You'll pay for that!!"
I started sprinting to get to ths door but i wasn't fast enough.
Something cold and sharp entered my neck and i was knocked out within a second.
