//Ty//
The giant genius whistled to himself as he set up three different screens. Each one was labelled according to which team it would show, in Ty's boyish hand. This as more to keep him from getting confused than anything else. He plugged wires into various slots, he pressed buttons and turned knobs. Their first meetings were about to begin. As always, Ty was excited to test his mettle. He had supplied his little sister with some very interesting goods, and had big plans for weaponary. He would not, of course, think to share them unless asked. Ty was just like that. Always had been. His mother, he knew, was busy not-hoving by being in her office. She was anxious.
Ty, in fact, felt slightly uneasy. He had broken the firewall. It had been difficult, it had taken him days, but he had found an opening. He should not have found any opening whatsoever. He was good, but the three people they were up against were better. He was suspicious. He kept his thoughts to himself. After all, nobody likes a party pooper.
He looked at the clock on the wall, and started. Ten minutes until broadcasting. He searched the room frantically for the intercom mike. He knew he'd put it somewhere! He riffled around for a minute or two, before finding the mike buried under piles of papers. He retrieved it, and with some difficulty switched it on.
We're live in five. All assassins to the control centre, please. Unless you want to miss out. Which is cool too.
Professional? Not really. But it would get the job done.

The airport was an excellent place to meet. People went in and out of airports. Lots of traffic. Lots of people to watch. Lots of suspicious workers who would notice new cameras or other detecting devices. In fact, the airport was an unlikely and brilliant spot for a meeting. This is what Bree had thought, and that was why she had organised for the first meeting to be held in Switzerland's bustling airport.
She sat in the small coffee shop where the three had decided to eat, looking nothing like Bree at all. She had dyed her thick hair honey blonde, and it would not usually suit her at all. Except, that wasn't the only change she had made. She was wearing dark brown contact lenses under fashionable sunglasses. She was wearing make-up, which made her look like a young adult rather than the teenager she was. She was dressed in a red trench coat, which sat on top of jeans and a blouse which served to give her plenty of curves. She was wearing high heels. Most astonishingly, she had gotten a tan, and thus looked a lot less like she was on death's door. Most bizarre of all, she had been working hard to put on weight in the week and two days which had passed since they had originally been given their task. Her efforts were paying off.
This is why, as she waits for Booker and Malberry, she is stuffing her face with a buttery, rich chocolate croissant.
Her name was, for the moment, Megan Carter. She was a British woman who was travelling for her boss, a well-known lawyer.
She had come to kill a man.
//Malicia//
In a dark, somber hotel room, a deadly woman makes a call. She does not to so from the hotel phone. She does not pick up a cellphone. She touches a small device to her lips, and speaks into it. Her voice is dry and harsh, and never raises above an almost-whisper. There is something about her which speaks of age and abuse and torment, both inflicted on her person and inflicted by her person. Her eyes flash, but there is no joy in her expression, only a naked, hungry cruelty. The mike flashes as it picks up her words, transmitting her orders into the listening ear of her newest employee.
They have arrived, she tells him.
They meet now. You will follow the team assigned to me. You will relay everything they say and do to me. You will not be caught, you will not be suspected. Is that understood?
From the bed in the hotel room, there is motion. A man, previously sprawled languidly across the bed, rises and props himself up on his elbows. He has the thin face of a man used to getting what he wants in every respect. His mouth is insolent. His eyes are haughtly.
Where is Flint? he asks, with the barest trace of a European accent on his words. Malicia does not look at him, but her mouth quirks up in a cruel parody of a smile.
It seems that our elaborate plans were for naught. Flint as found a most loyal informant to do his bidding. Family, it seems, has its uses.
