“Heard you had an interesting night last night?” Agent Castle said as agent Knight was released into his custody.
“You could say that.” She said, someone had sent to girls to take her out last night luckily for her they weren’t trained killers, just two biker chicks with previous priors who had been in and out of the system a dozen times, they were both now in the hospital.
“Where is the locket?” He said looking at her.
“The locket is safe, though it might be a couple of days before I can return it.” She smirked. She had swallowed it in back of the police car to keep it safe since the detective could have easily have gotten it from personal belongings.
“I see.” He said with a grin.
“Took you long enough.” She said as she gathered up the rest of her stuff. She knew that the second she had gone through booking her finger prints
“The boss wanted you to sit for a bit until the rest of the team could get here. He didn’t think someone would try to kill you in there.” The general was funny like that.
“Any luck tracking down Sihn?” She as she followed him out.
“He was smart enough to stay clean out his bank account and clear out his place but he did stay at an upscale hotel last night.” Agent Castle said. He might have not shown up on radar if he had gone to some small hotel without cameras that they could run facial recognition through. “We found the briefcase but it was empty.” Fuck they couldn’t catch a break she thought. They would no doubt have the apartment covered waiting for him to return.
“What about the addresses I sent you.” Knowing that would be the next best move. To acquire the rest of the imprints.
“We got teams of two heading for each location.” Agent Castle said. That meant Special Forces trained in Imprint retrieval but they didn’t carry Imprints like the agents. There bullets would be useless against shin but they were trained to deal with threats they couldn’t kill, they would have to go to flash bangs and tazers.
“We have been ordered to take him out.” Agent Castle said coldly.
“What he’s not a bad guy, he could have killed me when he had the chance.” She wasn’t a killer, she had done it from time to time when she had to but not unless she had to. She wasn’t as easily corrupted by the artifacts as others who had gone power mad after getting them she still had a soul and she would try her best to bring Shin in alive if she could no matter her orders.
“One of the names you sent us, the police found several dead bodies and the guy who bought the ring dead, we don’t know if it was your detective but combine that with Edward Jewels Imprint and you have two level ones in play. We can’t take any chances.” He said.
