It's not a job Julianna took pleasure in taking. She never liked breaking the law. This was mainly because of her morals but the fact that her friend and landlord was an Orc cop, Darkaknock, didn't help. Simply put, things aren't pretty should he get angry. Thankfully for Julianna, he often looked the other way on illegal activity if it was done for the greater good; and sometimes when it was not done for the greater good but instead happened to be done by a certain person by the name of 'Julianna.'
So, here she was, doing a job of an illegal nature, for a person who went simply by the title: 'The Bullet.' Julianna had no idea of his affiliations nor questioned them at the time. She didn't even know the man. however. her reputation as a Free Agent Shadow Reaper got around enough to be approached by the shady figure. So why did she accept the job? Well, her gut was telling her it was a bad idea, but she was short on jobs recently. While she was staying with a compassionate Orc who would never let her starve, her good conscience wouldn't allow herself not to do everything she could to hold her own. She hated relying on others. Afterall, she couldn't trust them as far as she could throw them and she never was all that good at feats of strength.
The cool night made her shiver; or was it her conscious? She pulled the hood of her black cloak up over her red hair; her face masked by the shadows of night. "In and out. Piece of cake," she told herself. "All I have to do is get in, find a dusty old gun, get out, and pass it off at the meeting place." Julianna usually didn't get these pre-job jitters; at least not to this extent, but something just felt off about this one. It was the fact that she couldn't place what it was though that had her bothered.
Ahead of time, she had done her research. She handled her jobs solo. No one ever wanted to work beside a Shadow Reaper anyway; always afraid of a knife in the back. Because of this, she had to be thorough. She knew to expect the stationed guards, dogs, and even the two cameras outside. Inside was guarded equally well. Cameras, inside, were placed recording the main entrances, stairwell, and a couple important hallways, just to name a few. This was not to mention the night guards that guarded and patrolled the halls. The number of night guards was not something she could find mentioned anywhere; even in their own database when she hacked in for additional information before the job. However, she knew to expect twenty-four thanks to her employer, 'The Bullet.' Julianna had asked how he knew, to which he had simply replied that it was none of her concern.
Julianna pulled out her laptop and began to hack back into their system once again. She was nearby the property, but just out of sight. Lucky for her, everything was connected to one mainframe. Cameras, security doors, alarm systems were all accessible without attempting to hack into each individual thing. With a few taps of her keyboard, she flickered the lights on and off in a large room adjacent to the rear entryway. The night guards in the rear of the complex noticed the flickering light and began talking. After a moment, one reached for a walkie-talkie and radioed inside. Julianna could see a person walk into the room by the shadow they cast on the window. The outside guard appeared to converse with the handheld device as the shadow left the window. Julianna smirked as she repeated the flickering. Now, it seemed the person who cast the shadow turned back and instructed through the walkie-talkie for assistance. The two outside guards shared a few words before the one grasping the talkie headed for the rear entryway; leaving the one guard and the dog still at post. This was just what she was waiting for.
Julianna snapped her laptop shut, flinging it into her backpack and zipping it, she then briskly snuck up to the black fence surrounding the perimeter of the property; keeping to the shadows. The darkness was her best friend. Once she made it, as close as locked gates allowed, she shifted into the shadows of the night. Now, nothing more than a thick, dark grey smoke, she moved through the fence with ease. She kept her distance from the remaining guard and dog, as, otherwise, the dog might have caught a scent and started to bark. She drifted rapidly toward the entrance and as the guard opened the door, she was at his heels, pressing herself flat against the floor; melding completely into his shadow as he entered.
The guard closed the door behind him and headed for the large room to the right. Julianna peeled off, sliding up a wall to the ceiling to stay out of camera sight as much as possible. She knew exactly where to go. She had memorized the layout of the building. Thankfully, normal interior doors had gaps underneath. She proceeded down a couple halls before slipping down between two stationed guards and under a door to the security room. Inside were two men monitoring live security footage. Julianna shifted back into her dark hooded form behind them as they chatted about a cook-out one had planned for next weekend. Pulling prepared cloths from her pockets she quietly stepped forward between them before snapping both her hands over their noses and mouths. Before any sound could come out, they slumped in their chairs; knocked out. Chloroform wasn't a standard that she brought to her jobs. It had been provided to her by her employer as he stressed to her the importance of doing her entire task completely unnoticed.
Julianna smirked as she gazed at the security screens, she hunched over the keyboard, cracked her knuckles and proceeded.
