Agent for a Cause

"Amen." Chantry said quietly in response.

Galloway's lips quirked up slightly, "Catchy tune anyway. Wish I had written it." He said as he listened to the theme song replay through a headset he'd put on.

It was after one o'clock when I crossed the litter strewn street towards the innocuous looking door of the nightclub. Maria and her team were already inside and everything was set. I had no doubt that they would come in handy, but in some ways I would be alone in the packed club.

Even now Flint and several other agents were infiltrating into the Iron Wills headquarters building, which was directly adjoined to the nightclub. I strode past the tattooed, barely clad, youth standing in line waiting to get inside.

The muscle bound bouncer grasped my arm hard. I let my eyes trace up the restraining hand to directly stare into the brute's eyes. He must not have liked something he saw there because he let go, as if his hold on me had become too hot to handle any longer.

"Have a pleasant night, Sir."

I gave him my most chilling smile as I tipped the corner of my hat to him. He stepped back as I moved past him into the nightclub.

A tattooed floozy gave me an interested go over before indicating that I had to pass through a body scanner, which I complied with. Her lascivious eyes flew from me to her screen as it beeped out at her warningly. I watched her eyes grow wide with shock, as she turned from the screen to gaze up at me.

I held up one finger to my lips, "Shhhh!"

She screamed.

Oh well it had been worth a shot. Two enforcers from opposite corners ahead stepped toward us as their hands reached inside their jackets. My favored pistols slipped into my hands as I cross drawled them out from my shoulder harnesses under the coat.

They each puffed once their silencers among the quietest available on the black market. As the two men fell I have turned and one gun puffed again at the man who had stepped out from a security booth in the wall near the door.

Turning back to the petrified woman cowering down in her seat beside me, I shook my head as if to say, "Should've been quiet."

I tipped my hat up to look at the security camera that was focused in on me. I put a bullet square into the little red flashing light. Now the enemy would both know that I was here and who I was, but more importantly Flint now had the go-ahead to start busting doors down in search of Kevin, because the party was coming to me.
