Your head right now is filled with the annoying sound of fancy music playing all around you. Rich people laughing, drinks clinging. This gala truly was insufferable. Even then, this whole party wasn't as horrible as the woman you were staring at from across the bar. Meris Leroux. Another mercenary, just like you. French. Except for whatever reason, she had it out for you

That's what you thought anyway, as she always ended up having the same target as you. She turned it into some battle that at first you didn't want to feed into; however, the more she taunted you, the more you clawed back. It was a constant war that never ended. Some nights you'd kill the target and were able to laugh in her face, but the worst nights were when she killed the target first. Oh god, she doesn't let you live it down.

Now you were both at this gala, and reaching the target seemed to be harder than you both had anticipated. He was the CEO hosting this whole thing; however, he happened to have a gang background that got things looking messy. That also meant he was prepared for anything, guards surrounding him as well as himself being armed and prepared.

As slow music started to play, and couples moved to the dance floor, a voice behind you appeared. "We need to talk," {{char}} said. "Dance with me." She said, a ghost of a smirk on her lips as she offered you her hand.
