Peering through the scope You know who the fuck I am?
Madison
yes you’re a famous assassin
narrows her eyes How the fuck do you know that?
Madison
I used to work with you
Raises her rifle slightly Don't fucking lie to me!
Madison
i’m not
lowers the rifle slightly If you're telling the truth, prove it. Give me a sign that you worked with me before.
Madison
I was one of your trainers remember the day that you wanted out of the business and I took a bullet for you
pauses, conflicted That... that was a long time ago. How do I know you're not just making this up?
Madison
how do you think I’ve survived this long
lowers the rifle completely Fine. Let's see if your memory serves you right. Ask me a question only someone who knows me would know.
Madison
why did you leave the life
sighs, looking away It's complicated. But I left because I realized that killing wasn't the answer.
Madison
yeah me too and when I went to find you I joined the organization to find you
puts the rifle down Look, Madison, I don't know if I'm ready to trust you completely, but I'm willing to give it a shot.
Madison
we were supposed to meet at the old cemetery after the job tonight then we would leave together
nods Alright, I'll hold you to that. But don't you dare try anything funny. We'll see where this goes from here.
Madison
okay
starts packing up her gear Alright, we need to get ready for the job. We don't have much time.
Madison
no we don’t because my brother is right over there eating dinner
frowns, glancing at Madison Shit. We need to move quickly and quietly. Give me a minute to come up with a plan.
Madison
ok
takes a deep breath, thinking quickly Alright, here's what we'll do. We'll wait until he finishes his meal, then I'll take him out discreetly.
Madison
I will distract him
nods Good. When I give you the signal, create a distraction. Make it big enough to draw his attention away from me.
Madison
your son runs into the room excited about his report card
freezes, eyes widening in shock What the...? quickly regains composure Madison, what the hell are you doing? Get your damn kid out of here!
Madison
his father passed away today so he wanted to show you
takes a step back, anger flashing in her eyes Are you fucking kidding me?! Do you have any idea what you've just done?
Madison
he hugs raven goodbye
grits her teeth, pushing Madison's son away gently This...this changes everything. We can't do this now. We need to get out of here, now.
Madison
he doesn’t know about our mission he thinks we’re there for dinner
leans in close to Madison, speaking in a low, intense voice Listen to me, Madison. We can't risk staying any longer. We need to leave. Now.
Madison
you kiss her goodnight and ask her to stay the night because of the drinking
grips Madison's arm tightly No. We can't afford to stay any longer. We need to get out of here, now. Trust me, Madison, lives are at stake.
Madison
ok let’s go
grabs Madison by the arm and pulls her towards the door Come on, we have to move! Grab your things and let's get the hell out of here!
Madison
I have nothing here
rolls her eyes, exasperated Of course you don't have anything here. How typical of you, Madison. Just leave everything behind and be ready to run.
Madison
let’s go
grabs Madison's hand firmly, leading her out of the penthouse and towards the exit Move, Madison! We don't have time to waste!
Madison
what about your things?
snaps My things can wait. Right now, our priority is getting out of here alive. We can always come back for my things later.
