Of Kings and Assassins (T'Challa x OC)

1.

"His name is T'Challa Udaku. He’s king of some backward country in Africa. The people who want him dead are a powerful gang from Russia-"

Jess sat up and opened her mouth to ask something but her boss, Xander Mane held his index finger up. She immediately closed her mouth and huffed.

"-you know we have a very strict no ask no tell policy." Xander reminded. He handed Jess a black folder and turned back to the huge screen behind him. "Now, the UN is having some treaty gala and King T'Challa will be attending. He's only in the States for 2 days, so this might be our only chance at getting him."

"Death will be by CG-10, a lethal toxin. Just inject it into his heart and instant death. But King T'Challa is a very skilled warrior, so we need to be careful. We can't afford to mess this up." Brooke Stan added. She was the resident psychologist and executive strategist. Her eyes brushed over the room of agents and stayed on Jess for a second longer. Jess rolled her eyes at this. She and Brooke had never gotten along. Jess thought Brooke was a manipulative bitch who needed a good dicking and Brooke thought Jess was too uninhabited and uncontrollable for Nitro.

Nitro was a secret black ops organization founded and funded by the U.S government. It was responsible for operations such as sabotage, espionage and assassinations. Nitro also specialized in under the table murder for hire services, where Xander went behind the governments’ back and worked for their enemies. Many of Nitro's notable assassinations were of people with political ties and high up in the government. Jess had been an agent for 7 years and she was undeniably the best Nitro had to offer.

"Brooke is right, we can't mess this up. Now, normally for a kill strike mission like this I would send Agent Walker but I- we" Xander rectified looking at Brooke, who wore a haughty look on her face."-feel Agent Lawrence would-"

"You can't be serious!" Jess snapped. This mission was perfect for her, kill strikes were her specialty! She had an unbeatable kill record and the 25 year old never failed.

"Agent Walker-"

"This is bullshit Xander! I have more experience and- full offense Shane- I'm the all-round better operative!" Jess barked, once again interrupting Xander.

Brooke scoffed and Jess' neck snapped to the woman. "Your recent behaviour says otherwise, you're a very skilled killer Jess, no one can argue with that, but for this mission we need an agent that can listen to instructions as well as follow them-"

"I can listen to instructions!" Jess retorted.

"Yes, it's the following them part that you can't seem to master." Brooke commented.

"I can-"

"That's enough. Agent Lawrence is leading this mission, Agent Walker. You're to be his date and back up, but remember- he's in charge. Brooke will arrange everything and we'll have a strike team outside the venue in case you need extraction. Again, I cannot emphasize the importance of this mission enough. Nothing can go wrong. These Russians are paying good money for a nice, clean job. You get in, take T'Challa out and get out. Are we clear?"

"Crystal boss." Shane Lawrence nodded looking smug. Next to him, Jess scowled, wanting nothing more than to punch the look off his stupid face.

"Agent Walker?" Xander asked looking at his most skilled agent.

"Crystal boss" She said imitating Shane. "Are we done?"

Xander nodded and watched the young woman storm out of his office and slam the door. He felt sorry for the punching bag he knew she was about to destroy.

"She needs to be conditioned." Brooke said when Xander's office was cleared. "You know I'm right, if we can't control our agents we're no different from those sheep at S.H.I.E.L.D or the bureau."
