Zara's pov

i walked out of the restaurant late at night. my watch said it was about 10 at night. i was walking back home from a date with Adam. it was dark out and i was about a mile away from home. i had a sudden feeling of being watched. i looked behind me. no one was there. i started walking faster. suddenly i heard thunder off in the distance. i started panicking. i wasn't looking where i was walking and tripped on a rock and fell over scraping my knee. i saw a shadow off in the distance. i stood up and tried to run but fell over again. i looked back. the guy was walking towards me. i stood up but fell over in pain. suddenly it started storming. the guy was close to me. i still couldn't see him. suddenly a bang rang through the air and the guy dropped forward into the floor. i was shaking. suddenly another man come running at me. i curled into a tiny ball and whimpered. he stopped in front of me and kneeled down. "are you okay?" he asked. 

he was carrying a Sniper Rifle. i nodded slightly. he stuck his hand out. i grabbed it and he helped me up. i yelped slightly when my knee bent. " well that's great." i sighed. " what's your name?" he asked. " Zara." i responded. he looked around. " i can walk with you for a little while but i have to go eventually." he said. i nodded. we started walking. i was limping a little bit. we got to the street i lived on. Rue Vaneau in Paris. " i think this is where we part ways." he said. i nodded. " will i ever see you again?" i asked. he shrugged. " maybe." he turned around and ran. i walked to my apartment and got inside. Adam was waiting for me. " welcome home Mon Cheri." he said. i smiled. " what did you do to your knee?!" he said and ran over to me. " i tripped and fell a few times while walking. i guess I'm not used to high heels." i said. he sighed. " let's get you cleaned up." he said. he led me into the bathroom and helped clean my knee and cover it up with a Bandage. he helped me to the bed. 

Laurent's pov

i snuck onto a roof across the street from Zara's apartment. i was drawn to her.  i put up my rifle and lined my scope up with her room. a guy led her to her bed. her leg was patched up. he couldn't help but feel jealous that another guy was taking care of her. he kept his calm though. he was to professional for this. he couldn't let feelings get in the way. she would get hurt or even worse killed if he got with her. he kept a watch on her though. she fell asleep and her boyfriend looked at her and sighed. he grabbed his phone. i zoomed in on his phone. he called another girl. he smiled and started talking to the other girl. i growled and threw my sniper on the roof of the building i was on. she didn't deserve this! i had just given myself a new job. find out who this girl he's cheating on her with and kill him. i grabbed my Rifle and ran.

Zara's pov Morning

i woke up. Adam was next to me. i leaned up careful of my knee and stood up. i started making waffles. when i finished i put them on the table and went to wake up Adam. " hey, Wake up." i said shaking him. he groaned. " I'm up, I'm up." he said. he  sat up, yawned, and stretched. " breakfast is ready." i said. he nodded. we both sat down at the table and started eating. " so, i have work till 5 tonight." he said. " why are you always working late hours?" i asked. he shrugged. " i have to pay rent you know." he said. i nodded. he got up after eating and got into a tuxedo. he walked out rather quickly. i sighed and started cleaning up. when i was finished i got changed.

i ran out to the same spot from yesterday when i almost got attacked and met that guy. i waited for a little while before i saw him on the roof. i looked around for a ladder. i found one and started climbing. when i got on top of the roof i looked for him again. my knee hurt slightly but i was fine for now. i saw him running and jumping roof to roof. i started running. jumping the roofs was hard and sadly i eventually lost him. i jumped one last roof and stopped panting for breath. suddenly i heard a thump behind me. i turn around. he was behind me in the same suit from yesterday. " how'd you find me?" he asked. " i didn't. i thought i lost you." i said. he looked behind him. " you're pretty good at jumping roofs. even while injured." he said. i realized the slight pain in my knee. i winced and sat down. " you okay?" he asked. he pulled out a bandage out of a pocket and rolled up my pant leg to get the old one off. he helped me wrap the new one on. i yelped slightly when his thumb brushed against the wound slightly. " sorry." he said. he finished wrapping it after about 5 minutes. " so, why'd you try and find me?" he asked. " I'm bored." i said. he kinda stared at me. " you do realize what i am right?" he asked. i nodded. " like a ninja." i said. he nodded slightly. " you could say that." he said. he let out a light laugh. " are you on a mission right now?" i asked. he nodded and his eyes hardened. " who are you searching for?" i asked. " that's none of your business." he said. " i don't even know your name." i said. he paused for a second. " Laurent. " he said plainly. i nodded. he put his hand to his ear. " got it." he said. he reached for his rifle and pulled it off his shoulder. " ready?" he asked. i nodded. " good." he said. he started running. i started running with him. we jumped a few roofs and then when we stopped i felt like my lungs were collapsing. he kneeled down and positioned his sniper. there was a girl over there. suddenly a man walks out. he looked familiar. i squinted my eyes. that couldn't be. Laurent looked at me. " want to look through?" he asked. i took the sniper carefully and looked through the scope. the man went up to the girl and wrapped his arms around her waist. he kissed her and smiled. i felt tears falling from my eyes. that was Adam.
