The boy let out a sigh as he stepped off the plane and into Seoul's largest airport. Despite never being to his home's sister nation, an instant wave of relief swooped over him like a wave. North Korea, as dangerous as it was, was always a sense of comfort for the dark haired student. Despite the hardships in the later months of his life there, fond memories still clung to the nation's name and always made him nostalgic.
South Korea seemed no different, minus the impending threat of government that always hung over his shoulder. With a proud smile, the teen walked forward, his eyes scanning for their driver. Even though he wished he could explore the country freely, a job needed to be done.
It was surprising seeing Korean names posted on the bulletin board that held all available missions. A special position for those fluent in Korean was saved on that particular posting, one that had been sitting empty for weeks. With only a few days left and no takers, James scribbled his name down despite having no idea what this job entailed. A small girl named Piper came along beside him; a short, petite, pale girl with white hair and blue eyes - a stark opposite to him. She didn't seem to approachable at first, but he had no problem making small talk to satisfy his outgoing needs.
Out of the corner of his eye he spotted their two names neatly written on a board held by a nice looking gentleman. After greeting him with a bow, the driver led them to a sleek black car. Inside were two fine, black suits, earpieces, and even guns with their holsters. A small bulletproof vest rested against one of the seats. The students' employer was well aware of their abilities and knew a vest for James would be moot. The boy let out a sigh and grabbed the items laid out for him, shoving them into one of his bags.
"You may get dressed inside the closest bathrooms. Please return to the car as soon as possible." the driver spoke in Korean. Piper would be stuck without him here.
"Time to get dressed," James hummed. Hopefully they would not need to use their guns.
