PRELOUGUE


Zetes had never been in such a hard fight. He had to use all the skill he had in just dodging the blows of his opponent. And what was worse was that they were now on the edge of the skyscraper. A well aimed kick from his opponent would have let Zetes fly and meet his maker. But Zetes just grabbed the leg with both of his hands just in time to prevent any damage to his body. His opponent smiled and tried to use the situation as leverage for a higher kick. Only to have Zetes flip the leg causing his opponent to land on the floor. they booth stood apart. Just then the overcast Grey skies let forth a thunderous roar and let rain come down. They both stood at the ready waiting for the right moment to strike at there opponent
“ hey you two freeze.”
they turned around to see the guards coming out of the stairways. They looked at each other nodding and jumped of the roof. The guards could not believe what they saw while they looked down the roof. The two individuals dressed like ninjas where actually fighting while falling. There seemed to be no rope on them as they ran down the walls punching and kicking each other. At the last moment for a kick Zetes back flipped landing behind his opponent his feet landing leaving cracks on the windows. He stayed still for a second then let go of the walls and fell head straight towards his opponent who was running back facing the ground as she kept falling. when they met the sounds of metal touching metal could be heard. There movements where quick and precise. Each time there blades met they tried to go for another punch or kick, after another assault on his opponent booth of them used there blades to slow there decent by plunging them into the windows after a few floors there decent slowed enough for them to break a window below them and enter it.
Booth the guards on the roof and the people down below who caught this spectacle where left opened mouthed. The whole thing could not have lasted more then two minutes, a few lucky people remembered there cellphones and some tourist there video cameras, that day on the Internet the many novice videos where seen by millions of people who could not believe that what they saw was not planed.
The next day the newspapers headlines read. 'two ninjas fight while falling from the sky.'

His eyes opened when he heard the signal to go. It was the dead of night even tough there where many lights no one ever noticed the shadow on top of the bridge. With one step he fell from the top and with the grace of a professional he landed on metal with the smallest of sounds. He stood up looking around as the ship traveled the length of the bridge to his target. As his stop was coming close he let his hands run trough his slicked back hair. He threw a blade at the building and jumped of the boat he landed on the bank and began to climb using a rope that was tied to his blade.
The guards where looking out of the the balcony. It was a crisp summer night and they enjoyed the cool breeze coming in from the river. They heard the sound of something hitting the outside walls so they went to the balcony looking booth up and down they saw nothing. as they turned around all they saw was the arm enveloping there heads and heard the crack of there necks being snapped. The intruder looked at the guards making a sing of the cross on there bodies. he touched the device on his ear.
“ base this is son 3 clean up two dead. Necks snapped for warning to others.”
“son 3 this is father,you have green light continue with your operation. And be careful we just received Intel that there might be hostiles type d on the prowl.”
“understood, continuing mission father.”
he let go and walked into the building. He walked right trough most of the guards who payed no attention to him. As he got into the elevator he fixed the tie of his suit. He pressed the button that would take him to the top floor.

The president of the company was in his office looking at the reports of his scientist when he heard the ding of the elevator reaching his floor. He touched a blue button on his desk. The screen on his computer showed him the hallway that lead to his office. He raised an eyebrow as he saw only one person safely walking to his door and knocking on it
“come in.”
the door opened to reveal a man in a black suit with matching fedora hat with a white feather on it. His shirt was white and he had on a white and dark red silk tie. The man sat down on the seat for visitors.
“ who might you be sir?”
“ for now that is not important all that should matter to you is that I have come here to offer you an ultimatum.”
“and what might this ultimatum be?”
The stranger laughed, he took of his hat and smoothed his black hair. His hazel eyes seemed to smile kindly as did his whole person. “ as you might be aware the military is interested in some of the projects that your company is either founding or producing I would suggest that you turn them down.”
“ suggest?” the president look incredulously at the person in front of him.
“ yes it is a suggestion because you could turn it down. But such experiments as the ones you are running could endanger the safety of not only mankind but of other living organisms”
“ what the hell are you talking about.”
“ we know that you have some super soldiers. As we speak they are probably finding the bombs I placed on your building. If you agree to stop and do as you are told you will continue to live a peaceful life. you may contact this number for legal concerns.”
The man stood up and left a card in his desk as he left. As soon as he closed the door of the president office he saw many paramilitary dressed troops in his way.
“ ah I see so you think you can stop me?” he smiled as he put his fedora hat on. Once the hat was on his head the command came out.
“ fire at will”

The president could not believe what he was seeing the strange man had somehow survived the barrage of bullets long enough to get close to the team of super soldiers he had developed. He cut trough the group as an arrow tears trough the air. None where left alive as he made it to the elevator The president laid back on his chair. He looked at the card that was left for him. it was for a lawyer
“ what the hell is going on?”
as he said this he heard the sounds of a jet on his roof he got out unto the balcony of his office to see the man laying on the tail of a pure black fighter jet as it flew of into the night sky.
“ by the great gods.... what did I get into?”
