"So, does he fulfil your requirements." She had proceed to ask the figure. It had stepped out of the darkness to reveal Deadshot.

"Yes, and remember a full education for my daughter." Deadshot had demanded.

"You are really crazy lady." Deadshot had continiued.

"Consider this your parole Mr Floyd," She had replied.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Loki was in an helicopter at the moment along with Deadshot. The Helicopter was moving over the sea. Loki was still in his Tobi getup. As agreed, he had been given his first mission. Their task was to infiltrate and bring information back from a compound that had been found.

"Remember kid, we need to be quiet. We don't want to be loud. We are just the guys going into get some information. The cavalry will arrive afterwards." Deadshot had reminded Loki just in case.

Deadshot was assembling and disassembling his gun. There were a few gadgets that he had requested to be made as well.

"So, why are you here. Last, I heard you were a mercenary for hire."

Deadshot had a reputation of being one of the most deadliest assassins ever. A person who would work for the most highest paying buyer. In one moment, he would be hired to assassinate someone and if that guy on his deathbed offered him even more to kill the person wh originally hired him. He would agree in a heartbeat. This same fact had repeated a few times before people had taken the hint, and had found ways to hire him in secret. Giving him dead drops and assignments through unrelated couriers. A third party if you will. He had been hired at one point to assassinate batman. An action that he had failed in and the cost was simple. He had landed in Blackgate prison.

Home to some of Gotham's most criminally insane. That was true, until he had been approached by Amanda Waller and given a choice. A new lease of life or he could keep on repeating the same actions again and again. He had agreed and proceeded to work with her. As insurance, he was given information that they knew about his daughter. He had agreed to work with Amanda in exchange for a stable life for his daughter. Let's not forget the chip that he was implanted with that could inject a dosage of cyanide into his bloodstream. A quick death it had been called, should he decide to be a problem.

The Quinjet was fast and silent. Usually used for reconnaissance missions. Assembling his gun one last time. There was an obvious change from the normal Quinjets used by shield. The Quinjets that they were using had a steel wall between the passenger area and the pilot compartment. Three knocks were heard from the pilot compartment. They were here.

The Quinjet landed and they stepped out. Antarctica, the freezing cold assaulted them both. Loki due to having the ice release bloodline was not effected. To be honest, he could be naked here and still be fine. Deadshot pressed a few buttons on his suit and it turned whire.

"Cool, does it come in orange as well." Loki had asked him.

"Don't know. Would have to ask Waller." Deadshot had replied to him. "Now, stay silent. Don't wanna let people know we are here."

And so they had begun to make their way silently to the target. Their steps a little laboured due to the deep snow reaching up to their ankles. Atleast that was the case for deadshot. Loki had just used his kamui to move through the snow. His body not effected.

"So, why do they call you Deadshot."

"Because, I kill in a single shot." Loki had been answered. Loki began to touch himself all over from his head to his toes. "No, that can't be right. I am still alive." Loki had answered him.

"You were being tested. That's why." Deadshot had answered him.

Loki had adopted a thinking pose. "Hmm, and what about Batman." He said appearing to be thinking hard. Afterall, it was a fact that batman had been the one responsible for apprehending Deadshot.

"He is batman." Deadshot had answered him.

Loki had snickered to himself. What a fitting answer.

"Down, we are here." Deadshot had told him. As they were in view of the compound. As far as Deadshot could tell, the compound looked empty and abandoned,

"Well do your trick." He had told Loki. The ability to burrow underground. Loki had used his hiding like a mole technique to move towards the compound. He could sense no one inside. He could sense no life force inside as well. Both of these acts were concerning. Loki had popped up within the facility and had found it empty and devoid of life. There was something seriously wrong with the mission. Already, the intel provided to them had been proven to be faulty.

"Nothings here" He had proceeded to tell on the comms. On a watch he had gotten.

"Are you sure." Another question had been asked.

"Yeah." Loki had answered.

"Open the door."

And so Loki had gone back and opened the door. He had waved excitedly at Floyd who had proceeded to hit his face. Both of them had made their way inside and Deadshot began to make sure of that fact.

Amanda who was present on the comms began to feel that something was wrong in this mission. Both Deadshot and Tobi were part of a trial run so she had not informed anyone in shield about who they were. The only people aware of her project were The President of the USA and the Security General of the UN. She began to get the distinct feeling that shield may have been led into a trap.

She quickly went over the mission plans for Shield and had proceeded to send the coordinates to Deadshot.

"Get here quickly now. You are on support." She had proceeded to tell them. "There may be an ambush waiting for the main shield team. Proceed with caution"

Getting up, she had proceeded to go and order one of her technician.

"Get me Fury now." That technician had panicked. He began to work on the display until he could contact agent Hill.

"High priority communication for Director Fury."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deadshot and Loki had proceeded to run towards the location they were given. Loki was moving within the trees, jumping from one branch to another.

Until they could see a Quinjet landing. Loki had proceeded to tell Deadshot. "I can sense some things within the trees there."

"We can see an ambush located at 3'o clock from the Quinjet" Deadshot had proceeded to tell on the radio.

"You are clear to engage." Amanda had answered them

Deadshot had proceeded to assemble a Sniper Rifle and had aimed it. He could see the distinctive characters of the camouflage and had fired. A shot had rung out, their was a spark accompanied with the falling down of a figure from the trees. Deadshot could see it from the scope on his sniper rifle clearly. It looked like an android.

"One hostile down, believed to be a robot." He had informed Amanda on the comms.

During this time, Loki had disappeared. He showed up behing one of the other machines and proceeded to stab it in the back. One of the other androids carrying a rifle had aimed its gun at him. He had used the body of the android he had just stabbed to block the path of the bullet. There was another shot and the androids head exploded. Loki sand into the ground once more as he began to go for the next target. Loki sensed that these androids had turned their guns towards Deadshot's location and had begun to fire there.

Loki had gone to the back of the group and had shown up once more, he had stabbed one more of these androids. Taking out a few kunai, he imbued them with the power of wind chakra to increase their penetration power. He let them go towards two more of these androids and they went down as well.

The last android was shot in the head and was eliminated.

"Mission accomplished." Deadshot had contacted Amanda on the Radio.

"You may retreat to the designated extraction point." Amanda had said. "Tobi, your gold bars will be waiting for you at the designated area."

"Then, I shall take my leave." Loki had answered her. Loki was sucked into one of his eyes.

That was a giant relief. The trial mission had gone off without a hitch. Loki now would be able to take a few of the lucrative missions.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Nick Fury was sitting in anger. One of his missions had been compromised. The guy responsible for the mission had been killed off in some mysterious circumstances. He would have lost an entire squad of his own people. So, Amanda was proceeding with her own ideas.

Nick realized that soon normal Humans may not be enough to stop what is coming.

Project Overwatch may need to be accelerated right now. He had a dossier prepared for perspective recruits as well. As he had previously agreed with Amanda, Tobi would work with both of their people. For now he had to report to Adam Pierce.
