In the shadows

(3rd person pov)

Hopping along the trees silently and gracefully a shadowy figure could be seen zooming through the moonlight night at speeds the human eye would barely be able to track. The shadows looked as if they melded with each step the figure took as it went forward towards its destination in a blur.

Soon enough after enough time traveling the sound of an owl could be heard not far away and the figure stops in its tracks just standing motionlessly on a tree branch, a dim light could be seen flashing 5 times over 10 seconds and then the figure vanishes from sight and reappears near the origin of the light.

The figure comes into light near the edge of a hastily set up and crude camp that's only illuminated by the moon's rays. A man wearing all black, his buff, bulky and imposing figure being seen through the skin-tight mat black suit, walks up to the smaller almost child-sized figure that was lured here by the light.

"You S3?" the large figure questions in a masked voice that could not be decerned as either male nor female, even though his stature clearly makes him male. The shorter figure merely nods silently and the large man simply turns around and heads deeper into the camp where 5 other people could be seen wearing the same suit with the shorter figure following behind closely.

After a couple of minutes, the two make it to the center of the camp where the rest of the black figures are making Idle conversation. As the sound of the large man's footsteps near their location gains the attention of the men, one of the smaller figures sitting on a log looks over and calls out to him "Oi Captain! where did you go? Finally finish dropping that brick?" he asks in a clearly male voice that earns some snickers from the other people in the camp.

"Shut the hell up Kai! And why is your voice modulation skill not active!? We were told to keep our identities hidden you idiot." he reprimands the now named Kai with a stern voice, his own voice modulation skill failing.

"Oi, do you even see anyone but us around here? it's fine if we just relax for now boss chill out man," he says in a lax tone the rest of the camp nodding their heads in agreement.

"Well tough shit!" he says as he gets in front of them all "Cuz the one the church sent is here so shape the fuck up men!" he reveals and the previous relaxed attitude turns heavy as they all stand up rather quickly, backs straight and a bead of sweat can be seen running down the brows of a couple of them.

The leader then stands aside and the shorter figure is exposed to the men, and their previous intimidated state is now replaced by confusion as they look at who appears to be nothing but a mere kid.

"Oi boss, what's a brat doing here?" the one named Kai asked.

"Watch it Kai" He warns "This agent was sent by the pope himself"

"S-seriously?" Kai gulps

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

"N-no sir"

All the figures turn their attention to the short one who merely looks at them behind his black face covering and then without a word the figure turns around and vanishes from sight.

"H-he's gone!"

"What the hell was that speed? I couldn't even keep up!"

"Its pitch black you idiot, of course, you can't"

"Ahhh!? The fuck did you just say to me?!"

"I called you an idiot! You Idiot!"

"You wanna go Punk?!"

"Fine, Let's go Bitch!"

"Knock it off!!!!"

"Fuck you, Captain!"

"The hell did you just say to me!?"

"No, wait I'm sorry!"

As the camp descends into a brawl in the night the short figure appears on a tree overlooking the area, the figure sits down on a branch with its back leaning against the trunk, it looks at the commotion going down below it and gives a low sigh while letting its head rest against the tree.

A small plant on the branch can be seen leaning towards the figure as it all fades to black.
