Chapter 1 episode 3
I woke up groggily and sat in my sheets, connecting a few dots from last night. I stood grabbing a small briefcase off my tiny apartment table and clicking it open “whats this?…oh right that job..” i walked over to the kitchen and poured some coffee in a mug (3 cups) to wake me up. I sat down on the edge of my bed, coffee in hand while i observed the contents of the case.
A suit, jacket, tie, some sort of hybrid gun (which i don’t think they should’ve given to just anyone but whatever ) and a few more gadgets laid inside the briefcase. I was about to inspect them further when i got a knock on the door, i slinked over not bothering to fix my bead-head as i opened it “heyy-“ i shut the door immediately after seeing the werewolf girl from last night and turned on my heel “wait! Hey come on!” She pleaded as I heard the door nob rattle and was startled when it actually opened “what the- how did you even get a key-“ i sputtered as she stepped in wearing an identical suit to the one in the brief case, except it was unbuttoned at the top,un-cuffed and the jacket was draped over her with the gun and gadgets hung on her belt. She took a look at me “did you just get up?” She laughed a little and continued “its 1:03 pm, you should be dressed and ready by now.” I failed to come up with a response and sheepishly finished my coffee rinsing it in the sink. “Oh! I see you have already taken a look at your gear” she smiled pointing to the case “just get out so i can change..” i groaned and she did just that as i grabbed the outfit, “this is gonna be a long day..”
“So i know what i agreed to but like..I don’t? Can you give me a run down or something?” I said as she led me to an all black, roofless Mazda “sure! We got time before we get to HQ anyways so, ask away!” She started the ignition “hm, you are immortal correct?” I asked “no not yet, I’ve lived for a while as natural for a werewolf however i only gain immortality after i pass the council.” The wind blew her hair showing more of her face as we drove “hm, okay and how many other people will i be working with?” “4, including me of course.” She said giving me a slight smile but keeping her eyes on the road “theres, Dion, Delilah/lily and AJ, all pretty chill people, Dion is the responsible one of the group, Delilah is more shy, and AJ mostly chills and does whatever.” “Which one are you?” I asked she looked at me for a moment and gave me a toothy grin “the reckless one obviously”.
We pulled into the front of a tall building that looked almost like a company building. We got out as i still asked a few questions “how long have you been doing this?” I asked “a year so far but in company terms thats “not enough” so it’ll probably end up more than that” i thought on that for a moment before realizing “wait do we get paid for this or..?” “You and the others members do but the werewolves like me don’t since its for experience.” She looked a bit annoyed by that question while we got in an elevator next to a fancy looking lobby “so that means the other members in our group aren’t werewolves?” “No. I’ll introduce you to them when we get there but they are not werewolves like me.” She said when the elevator dinged loudly breaking my train of thought. “We’re here!”
