I am running. I am running through city alleys in the middle of night and I hear those who follow me behind. My mentor did mention of not ticking them off and for a change that old geezer was right, but he did forget to mention that they are very athletic and like to use the spies they catch as pincushions, except that the pins are knives and unlike the cushion I feel pain.

Soon I notice that the turn I just took is a dead end, or so it would seem to anyone who isn't initiated in some of the secrets of this city. I press hidden button in my belt, hearing how my pursuers are closing rapidly, I know the time is cutting short. In the instant I press the button ground beneath my legs disappear and I fall and just before my pursuers turn in the dead end the ground appears again above me. I am in a small man fitting hole and I hear how the pursuers yell at each other's until they notice that a small door leading to the apartment complex is open and go through there.

I wait a while before pressing the button again and the hatch above me opens up, remembering my lessons I wait another moment before climbing out in case they left some one up there to watch if I'd have tricked them, which by the way I did. Once I'm up I press that button fourth time and hopefully the last time before I reach the safe house. The old geezer thinks using technology is a sign of weakness, but still admits it is better option than being caught. Seeing no one is around or at least not making any sound, I start moving towards what I've come to call as home.

I didn't notice any one following me in the time that took me to arrive in a building opposite to the library. I sent the elevator in to the seventh floor as precaution if someone was following me and rose to the third floor by stairs. I pressed my hand on the door that reads L & I Lumianit just below the peephole. If you listen closely you'd hear near silent machine voice and lock clicking as sign of opening. I push it aside silently and attempt to sneak to my room from there. However I forgot the old geezer is paranoid and more skilled in arts of silence than I am, I am reminded of that by receiving strong slap to back of my head and sound of door closing and lock activating again. Also a more than familiar voice starts speaking his usual calm and soft voice but this time his words sound like sharp knifes in my ears and back of my head.

"I knew you were a fool but this was pathetic act even from you. They almost caught you not to mention you had to use the distraction device." he says and as I am turning around to answer he taps my fore head with his finger tip.

"You also took more time than you were supposed to, and don't tell me you didn't get that what you were sent for."

"You should know that, mentor, as you were watching me the whole time." I pull a memory stick out of my sleeve and hand it to him "With all respect mentor, isn't only the fact that I was able to get that information and return it enough for a mission?"

He looks at me with his cold analytic eyes and takes the stick from my hand before answering "You've been my student for two years now and only things you've learned so far have been to move and act silently and use your own wit to some extent, but not well enough…" I stop listening because that is the same lecture I've heard every time I come from an errand and that is all praises I get from him. Though I know he avoids praising too much because he thinks pride makes men do foolish things and If I were to act foolishly all of his efforts would have been for nothing but waste.

"… And you still haven't learned enough respect for your elders." he takes a short break before continuing.  I give myself a compliment. He has become too predictable by his lessons.
"And that why we continue your training right now, you can sleep tomorrow." He gives out wide grin as he sees the surprise in my face and continues "See you even though I was predictable. Never let anyone lull you with routines, because after that you are easy to surprise. Wasn't that also one of the initiate tests?"

"Yes mentor, it was the third test." I answer as I think: Great now I hear of this for months unless he finds out something else to spike me.
Hands up anyone who though i stopped writing.

heres the idea. I am making this serie as my new work and this revolves around the mytics and secret societys in our age.
Location is earth year is 2010. if you guess what two societys i used in this you get a cookie.
