Adopted Soldier

Richter who was in his room looking at different monitors that showed the different areas of the base. While he was watching he noticed that something was going on outside the base. When he looked closer he smiled and made an announcement to the whole base.

"Attention everyone, our guest has finally arrived. I hope you give her a warm welcome. Also can someone check the package she left behind at the front entrance."

Daryl who was the nearest to the entrance went out and took what was left there. It was a huge package, Samuel took a look of what was inside the package and saw the chopped body parts of a human. He wasn't that surprised to see it, but then he noticed another smaller package and in it was Henry's head.

Daryl knew what to do, and pointed the head towards the security camera. When Richter saw what was done to his subordinate he couldn't help but smile a bit.

'This girl is of a better class than both Rachel and Evangeline. I really want her as my in-law, but she doesn't like Alex the same way Rachel and Evangeline does... Well, the other party's input is of little consequence to me. The three of them can all become Alex's wives.'

Richter decided all that in his head, before he once again speaking to all his subordinates.

"Our guest has started a game of hide and seek. All of you play with her a little, and once she's done and happy bring her to me."

That was all Richter said, but they all knew what he truly meant. He wanted them to quickly find the guest and force her to head to him.

...

Sayaka who used the opening Daryl made to get into the Shadow Mercenaries base, also heard the announcement and clicked her tongue.

'Tsk, That must be Alex's granddad he's going to be a hard one to deal with. Still now that everyone's on high alert, being able to get out safely, with everyone in tow is going to be a bit hard. Well it's not like I wasn't prepared for this to happen, after showing them the mutilated corpse of their friend.'

Sayaka was currently inside the Shadow Mercenaries HQ, and was walking inside the base like she was one of them. Right now Sayaka was wearing a disguise, and she took the identity of what seem to be a top member of the organization.

'Okay first order of business, I got to find out where they're keeping Oliver and the others.' While Sayaka was thinking about what to do next, she suddenly swayed her body to dodge left and right, as two darts flew past her.

Sayaka then ducked her head as a hand with long finger nails that had hidden blades underneath them passed by and almost decapitated her head. Sayaka then took some distance from the woman who suddenly attacked without any provocation.

"Why did you suddenly attack?" Sayaka asked confused, was her cover blown? That can't be it, her disguise was perfect, she even had the height down to a millimeter.

"Oh, so you really aren't Daryl. Then that must mean you're Sayaka Mutsu. What an honor to meet someone from the famous Mutsu clan. Among all the assassin clans yours is the oldest and most well received. I hope to play with you a little, but the leader isn't really that patient."

"What the hell are you talking about? Have you finally broke?" Even in this situation Sayaka didn't give in, and kept on playing the role of Daryl.

"Still keeping up appearances are we? As expected of someone trained by the Mutsu clan. Even though your disguise has already been seen through, you're still trying to continue the act." Amica smiled as she lowered her stance.

"The hell are you talking about woman? If you're talking about the guest, then you better look elsewhere cause that isn't me. Now that I think about it, your acting really suspicious, maybe your our guest in disguise?" When Sayaka said this she took out a dagger from her waist.

"Oh, now your doing that, how lame? Anyone who sees the two of us fighting will quickly figure out you're the fake."

Sayaka who took out her dagger was confused, why was this woman so sure that she was a fake. Since the start she saw right through her, which made Sayaka really confused. It would seem that unlike Henry who was the weakest of those on the top, this woman was on a different level.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I just need to beat you up, and bring you to the leader."

"You really think that you'll be able to do that? At this point you already made three mistakes. First you didn't learn about the relationships we have on this team. Second you didn't even check what kind of weapon Daryl uses. Finally, your ultimate mistake was bumping into me."

When Amica said this, she bursted forward. Sayaka saw the blades of Amica's finger nails were about to pierce her eyes, but before they were able to reach her, she once again ducked her head and countered with the dagger she was holding. Amica backed away evading the dagger strike.

"Relationships? What the hell are you talking about? Also you can always change the weapon your using depending on the situation. Why do I need to use my good weapons on you?" Sayaka made an irritated face using Daryl's looks.

When Amica saw that, she finally calmed down.

"Oh, so its really you, Daryl. I really thought you were the Mutsu girl... How disappointing... Well whatever, I'll just go around and see who she disguised herself as." Once she was done saying what she wanted to say, Amica dashed off.

Sayaka who was left alone sighed in her head.

'That whole thing was just a ruse to get me to slip up. Good thing I didn't let up and continued the act. I guess it wasn't a good idea using this guy's face. Got to find someone less important that he wouldn't attract too much attention, and at the same time important enough that he could walk around some restricted areas.'

Once she decided what to do next, Sayaka took off the mask she was wearing and hid herself within the shadows.
