Operation: Threads of Connection

Sacrifice

Loid's POV:

Yor was knitting in the living room, she had started practicing ever since the incident with Anya's penguin. With much determination she has gotten a lot better. Last Christmas her co workers gifted her a book full of different knitting concepts. What has intrigued Yor the most; baby socks. She began to experiment with Bond, making him red booties for his paws. Unfortunately,Bond didn't know how to react and he would begin running all over the house, but ended up slipping most of the time -knocking down a vase or two.

I thought I would be able to finally relax today. It has been ages since Yor and I had a Saturday day off. As always luck was not on my side, it seems Handler contacted Yor early in the morning to take a mission. I would've slammed the phone down as soon as I heard Handler's voice...

I stood there dumbfounded at my decisions: 1: I could convince Yor to stay with me, but she probably will be mad at me, therefore leaving me in a state where I would have to work to get back on her good side. Just as I successfully execute my honey trap, I am close to winning her over again. Suddenly, Yuri will probably make an appearance, and then I will have to deal with him the entire afternoon and night. Or option 2: I go with Yor, complete this mission, and I am left with a happy boss and most importantly a happy wife. For some reason, my decision to go to work seemed a bit more doable.

Anya had left with Damian to the beach. I couldn't help myself as I watched from the window, my daughter getting on a motorcycle! What! Calm down Twilight, Damian Desmond is a responsible boy... or is he? What were his intentions with my daughter? Does he know about his fathers plans? Is he part of these plans? Can I trust him to protect Anya? With Franky having to take care of Bond today there was no one to watch Anya. I just hope Desmond doesn't try anything funny...

Yor and I were getting ready for the mission. We had to infiltrate a high-security facility to retrieve critical information regarding Project Eclipse. The mission was risky, but it was crucial for maintaining Anya's safety. I glanced over at Yor, who was meticulously checking her equipment. Her focus and determination were palpable, and it gave me a sense of reassurance.

"Ready?" I asked, adjusting my earpiece.

Yor nodded, a steely resolve in her eyes. "Let's do this."

We left the safe house under the cover of darkness, moving swiftly through the city's shadowed streets. Our target was a heavily guarded research facility known for its advanced security measures. The intel suggested that a crucial piece of technology was being developed there—something that could tip the balance of power if it fell into the wrong hands.

As we approached the perimeter, I signaled for Yor to take her position. She effortlessly scaled the outer wall, her agility and strength making it look easy. I followed suit, using a grappling hook to reach the top. Once over, we landed silently in the courtyard, sticking to the shadows.The facility was impressive, with guards patrolling in pairs and security cameras covering every angle. We had planned for this, and I used a jammer to disrupt the camera feeds temporarily. Yor dispatched the nearest guards with precision, her movements quick and lethal.

We navigated through the complex, avoiding detection and neutralizing threats as we went. Yor's skills as an assassin were invaluable, and I couldn't help but admire her efficiency. As we reached the inner sanctum, where the data was stored, we encountered a series of advanced security systems.

"Loid, I've got this," Yor said, pulling out a set of tools. She began working on the security panel, her fingers moving deftly.

I kept watch, my senses heightened. Time was of the essence, and every second counted. Finally, the door clicked open, and we slipped inside.
