Deviation Actions
Literature Text
As Samantha leaves the Owl Café, a mysterious figure decides to secretly follow her, which made things a little suspicious. She can’t help but hear light stomps from behind, which made her run the moment she faces to her left. When her stalker runs to that direction, she was greeted by cyclers riding in vast stamina, which becomes a distraction since her prey isn’t in around anymore.
“Damn it! I lost her… What a waste, she looked rich too.”
From Samantha’s view from the 3rd floor of the backstairs, her little stalker is a female Asian in her teens. Her route happens to have stairs and terraces at the left, which is used as an advantage in distracting her with a parade of cyclers.
“Why is a teenager stalking someone like me in the daylight? That’s really weird.”
Meanwhile in the Owl Café, Jack sharpens his bayonet knife in a crude mood as loud slams from the storage door are banging in his ears.
“Will you shut it, Dave?!”
“I will, you didn’t have to jail me in here!”
“You preposterous fellow… Making a joke with your pointy machete is not a good idea! What if the local police see you?! You bastard! You’ll have to reflect to your sins, and you can’t achieve anything with that banging since that door isn’t even breaking either way.”
“Fine, so who’s that redheaded-chick with you?”
Jack just sighs as he leaves the counter due to asking more unnecessary questions. Dave hears footsteps, which is hinted that Jack is going to ditch him.
“Jack, where are you going?”
“Leaving, I’m really tired of your trash.”
“Don’t leave me here!”
Jack opens the door to exist, along with looking back with a smirk.
“Watch me.”
After a while, Samantha arrives home to her apartment, which made Natalie spring out of the couch and opens the door for her. Letting her in, she just removes her boots as she tiredly sits on her couch. Natalie gets her some water from the refrigerator as she sees Samantha sighing, which makes her sit near her.
“Hey Sam, you came back early, what’s the problem?”
Samantha just crosses her arms as she sighs in an upset manner.
“I got attacked in the cafe, and some stranger stalked me.”
“Well I guess I should’ve gone with you then, but I might sabotage the whole café if I did.”
“Maybe, so nothing urgent came up while I’m gone?”
Natalie shakes her head, along with lying on her lap lazily.”
“Nope, all I did were sending messages and clarifying stuff with Damian.”
“Oh, you mean those previous missions?”
“Yeah, that’s pretty much it.”
In the train stations of Russia, the girl who was stalking Samantha is observing the surroundings in order to look for a target. Her name is Kim Silhaeng, a 17 year old teenager who makes a hard living using the act of stealing money. She quietly puts her hands in her trench coat as she waits for the whole station to be crowded.
“This is taking a while, but to think I lost my prey like that. She looked rich and all too, but that’s kind of automatic when you try to do it in broad daylight."
Just then, a moderate amount of civilians arrived from Harbin, China, which is a 7 hour trip. As the station is starting to be crowded, Silhaeng dives in swiftly in order to find people with wallets in their pockets. Squeezing in the crowds, she manages to take 5-6 wallets without being noticed. Securely inserting all of the wallets in the pockets of her trench coat, she hears people moaning in disbelief the moment she withdraws from the crowd.
“Where’s my wallet?!”
“Damn these crooks, taking my money like this!”
“My wallet!”
Even thought she got a good catch, she can’t help but feel hurt inside. Leaving the scene like it’s nothing, the security cameras got footage of her snatching the wallets in the crowd, which was announced two hours later. By that time, Samantha and Natalie are done eating lunch when the television is on. Natalie is washing the dishes when Samantha is watching the local news. One of them headlines caught her attention, which is almost a coincidence.
“A snatcher stole at least 6 wallets in a station located in the heart of Russia, which is on Moscow. The security cameras within the station depicted a girl in her teens stealing the wallets in a swift manner. If you seen this thief, please dial us in this hotline that we will be displaying in this screen.”
Samantha can’t help but write it down as Natalie heads to the living room. Natalie notices Samantha writing down some numbers on the screen, along with a photo of the thief from the footage.
“What you writing down?”
“Ah this… If you see an image of that girl on the screen, she’s the same stranger that stalked me when I left the café.”
“That’s quite a coincidence, and it’s rare to see an Asian in this type of country.”
Natalie chills casually near Samantha as she brings out her smartphone. It seems that she’s turning her attention on a map application, along with typing a phrase with the word “clubs” in the search box. Samantha gives off a suspicious look as she scrolls down the locations.
“Nat, what are you plotting this time?”
“Oh, I just thought that I might try tracking her down, I know some clubs that become hangouts to thieves like her. I don’t like that she’s messing with you.”
Samantha just pats her back with a sigh.
“I’ll grant you permission for that, I just hope you don’t destroy any stuff there.”
“And if I did, I’ll put it on my tab, alright?”
As the dark sky arrives, Silhaeng heads to a nearby club to look for new ways of getting loot. Upon entering, all she smells is nothing but booze and cigarettes, which she tries to endure. Since Asians have lusciously smooth and flawless skin, the men can’t help but state since her outfit consists of a red hoodie with black denim booty shorts and a pair of sneakers. As she finds a secluded place to sit, a group of 3 men walked in front of her.
“Oh, well if it isn’t Silhaeng, you know what we came for right?”
It appears that she is expecting this kind of situation since her other ways of getting money is prostitution. With just a nod, one of the men decided to grope her, and when he really attempts to, the only thing she heard was some bones breaking from his palm. It seems that Natalie arrived at the scene, along with breaking a few bones from a presumed grab..
“Hello there, you don’t mind if I borrow her for a while?”
“No way, we’re here for this Asian right here!”
Letting out a laugh, Natalie decided to look at them with her murderous smile, along with pulling out a grenade from her pocket.
“Please? And if you tell someone about this, I’ll let you know when I’ll pay you guys a nice beating.”
The men have their eyes opened as they silently walked out of the club since Natalie is armed. Without a second, Natalie pulls the teen to the second floor by force.
“Hey! Let me go!”
“No way in hell, I got business to settle with you for stalking my friend…”
“Oh…”
She just shuts her mouth since she forgot that she’s armed with a grenade. Silhaeng quietly sits on a sofa set for two as Natalie returns with a Pina Colada Cocktail for herself. Sitting face to face, Natalie takes a sip, along with tossing a grenade on her hand.
“Is that a real grenade?”
“You mean this toy? Nope, I only brought it out here for fun. You’re quite a popular face in the news today.”
Silhaeng looks at her in a serious face.
“Let’s cut this to a chase, what do you want with me? And who are you?”
“You can call me Nat, kiddo. I should be asking that since kids like you should be at home and not selling your body for money.”
“I got no job with this age of mine… You should mind your business.”
“But we are at business, since you tried to plot on my friend…”
Silhaeng can’t help but look away in disbelief since she’s right about it.
“Fine, I’ll try not to escape from you. I’m Kim Silhaeng, but call me Syl for short.”
“I see, nice to meet you then. I’m surprised the police haven’t caught you yet.”
Natalie finishes her Pina Colada as Silhaeng watches her.
“So, what task am I going to do to make up for my schemes?”
Natalie has her fingers entwined, thus resting her chin on it.
“You’ll be my errand girl for the night.”
