102 Watch My Back [1]

After 20 minutes, they had arrived at Reen's house.

"Thank you very much for taking me home Aunt and Uncle."

"No problem kid, it was our pleasure." Hue said

"If you don't mind, would you like to come in for some tea and biscuits? It's the least I can do." She asked shyly.

"That's sweet of you. We'd-"

As he briefly glimpse at Wisteria he finally noticed Wisteria seating silently and alertly beside him, their eyes met and Hue suddenly became alert as well. Reen noticing the changed in their demeanor asked in concern.

"Uncle Hue? Aunt Wisteria? Is everything alright?"

"There's nothing wrong sweetie, we'd love to have some tea and biscuits but since it's kinda late now. Can we get a rain check on that offer [2]?" She winked at Reen

"Alright" She nodded

"Now… now… let's not make your mother wait any longer. Go on ahead and go inside"

"I'll go ahead then Uncle… Aunt…"

She waved goodbye at them as she jogged towards her house.

After making sure that Reen was inside their house, Hue and Wisteria each took their guns.

Hue was using a black beretta 92 with double-action semi auto pistol which employs an open-slide, short-recoil delayed locking-block system and yields a faster cycle time and delivers exceptional accuracy and reliability type of gun[3].

Wisteria used her FN Five-seveN pistol with its cold hammer-forged barrel that is chrome-lined. It was a single-action operation and had low felt recoil with 20-round magazine capacity. It is also equipped with an ambidextrous, forward-mounted manual safety [4].

They then steadily and alertly left the car doing the least noise as they can, they also wore an earpiece similar to what CIA agents wore for communication purposes.

They slowly circled around Reen's house. The back of the house was actually a small forest. Another reason why Reen's family got the house with a cheap price was because it was far away from the city and nearer the city's rural area.

With their back on the trees, Wisteria as she had more experience in this kind of thing signaled Hue to stand down and watch her back while she surveyed the area.

She walked slowly and it was at the same time that a big build man wearing a black suit coincidentally saw her. They aimed the guns at each other's body. Both had shock expressions on their faces.

"What the hell are you doing here Oliver?!" Wisteria said warily

"I would like to ask you the same miss..." The Oliver replied

They eyed each other tensely and look at each other like earthenware dogs [5] as a few more men had left their hiding places to gather near them. Seeing this Wisteria widen her eyes in shock, these people where her subordinates who were banished from their organization.

This group of men had killed without reason and murdered people that were displeasing to their eyes, as Wisteria upheld the idea of only retaliating when provoked or only kill when the mission dictates so she banished them and had never seen them again.
