As the clock strikes two in the morning the party is still going strong. All around the dance floor walk men in tuxedos and women in ridiculously frilly dresses. One woman stands in a darkened alcove towards the side slowly sipping a coke can. This is completely boring her. from behind sunglasses she looks first to her partner standing in equal discomfort. Her gaze then shifts to the balcony above the dance floor. She sees a quick movement. It is time.She stealthily moves to a stair case. As she moves up the stairs and through the hall the music from the party all but disappears. The hallway is lit only by soft lights.As she nears her destination two guards suddenly appear. They are both armed. They ask her "what are you doing so far from the party?" Suddenly from the folds of her dress come two katana swords. They now know they are dealing with blademanster of team Mongoose. They gulp and slowly lower their weapons. They are soon tied up in a nearby closet. She soon reaches her destination. There are her two partners there. One is dressed in black ninja garb. The other is still dressed in a stiff tuxedo. One asks "any trouble getting here?" "Nope" she answers slicing open the safe. Her teammates begin photographing the safes contents. As they depart out the windows blademaster sets a tube of lipstick on the masterminds' bedside table with a note saying "something to remember me by S."

ReplyDeleteYour style was real good; it made me want to know what was gonna happen. But don't forget to link the post to Magpie Tales.
you are so smart! I was disappointed when nobody got what the post was about. I guess you now think I am totally obsessed with that novel. well, it's so amazing, and when something touches me like that, I tend to put it in my own words and connect with my own feelings.
You can also contribute in Theme Thursday; I so wanna read what you are gonna write in this one :)

Dear Beaty: The Spy genre has just found the next Ian Fleming of 007 fame! I like how you set the scene for the action to take place. Action packed!
ReplyDeleteVery intriguing and gripping, great story-telling, well done! Welcome to Magpie Tales, wonderful take on the photo prompt.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! You are very talented. I could never do that. Honest.

SAY WHAT?
Happy Friday!

Love the mood of intrigue and the "Bond-esque" feel to her!
ReplyDeleteS? If you knew Susie, like I knew Susie . . . naaahhh, I guess not. I prefer blademaster anyway. Good job, J.P.
ReplyDeleteNicely done! I could read more and more.
ReplyDeleteI like "stiff tuxedo". Well done. Welcome to Magpie!
ReplyDeleteVery cool. That read like an episode of Alias. Jennifer Garner with swords and lipstick!
ReplyDeleteAction packed! That much trouble can a small tube of lipstick raise.
ReplyDeleteAnd once again the foe falls prey to the Blademaster of team Mongoose!
ReplyDeletecool,
ReplyDeleteyou have put action in the end, which makes it exciting!
Ah great fun! I'd have lowered my sword too!
ReplyDeleteHmmm – I think her name is Selah. But what do I know? I LOVE spy stuff – it wouldn’t hurt my feelings if you had a spy story every week.
