Oriental Assassin Heads West. 2. Miyuki could not get the thought of the incredible Shelly Cairns out of her head. Not only was she stunningly beautiful, her fighting skills were incredible, she despatched her sparring opponents so effortlessly that Miyuki thought that maybe she would be a worthy opponent for herself. Miki was fed up of hearing about her and was relieved when Watase contacted them to inform them that they had work to do. Meanwhile, Shelly Cairns was leading a secret life. Not only was she earning a living as a martial arts instructor for the LAPD, amongst others. She also had regular work as a female stunt double in one of the Hollywood studios. But secretly, she had been recruited by the FBI to work undercover in the fight against organised crime. The lovely Miyuki whom she had met a couple of nights previously, was suspected of being a lethal Yakuza assassin. Even though the Asian girl was in the dojo sparring with a couple of the guys, Shelly knew that she was only going through the motions. The dossier that she had seen made it very clear that both she and her travelling companion, Miki, were clinical killing machines. Shelly also realised that although she had never had a lesbian relationship in her entire life, there was a strong sexual chemistry between her and Miyuki. The task that Watase gave to Miyuki and Miki was a simple one. A violent gang of Hispanic thugs had been terrorising the prostitutes in West Hollywood and a couple of other areas where the girls brought in a lucrative income. The girls were now scared to go out on the streets, something had to be done. It was thought that a Mexican named Sanchez, who also brought in thousands of illegal immigrants and provided cheap labour throughout Southern California, controlled these thugs. He was based in Orange County and was making quite a name for himself. Miyuki and Miki decided to take a trip to Disneyland in Anaheim, they would blend in nicely with the throngs of tourists in the area. At night they drove around the area where Sanchez was thought to have his base. A house down a side street was the focus of a lot of activity, Miki kept the place under surveillance, sure enough, Sanchez was seen entering the building. The house was a fairly normal one, typical of the neighbourhood, neither expensive nor run-down. But the amount of activity was extremely unusual, they decided immediately that they would pay Mr Sanchez a visit. They returned in the early hours of the morning, both dressed completely in black, taking advantage of the dimly lit street. They split up and skirted the gardens of the house, when they met up again, they both reported no activity on the premises. Sanchez obviously thought he was completely safe and his security was extremely sloppy. Miyuki would enter the largest bedroom, they guessed that this would be where he slept. Miki would take care of anyone that got in the way. They picked the lock on the rear entrance and entered through the kitchen area, the house was quiet and peaceful. Miyuki identified the room where Sanchez would be, she had a few items in her pocket that she would need. She crept into the darkened room, her eyes had become accustomed to the dark. Sanchez lay snoring lightly in his bed, alone. Miyuki took out a ball- gag and some heavy-duty tape and approached his bed. She quickly forced the ball-gag into his mouth and chopped him across the throat with a swift movement of her hand. As he choked from her blow, she quickly and firmly applied the thick tape across his mouth. He then tried to struggle out of bed, a spinning back kick sent him crashing back down. Miyuki then swivelled and brought her black-clad right leg down with immense force, her heel crushing some of his ribs. A vicious elbow came down and struck his temple, her full weight behind the blow. Finally her stiffened knuckles shot out and connected with his larynx, the post-mortem would show this to be the killer blow. All this was done without waking anyone in the house, Miki was disappointed, she was hungry for some action, and she made a mental note to ravage Miyuki when they got back to the apartment. The following day, the FBI contacted Shelly to inform her of Sanchez' death, he had been widely suspected of escalating the violent crime in the area. A professional had done the job, no doubt about it. When the forensic information came through, it was shown that tiny particles of red nail polish were found on Sanchez throat, directly around the area where the deathblow had landed. Shelly knew that her suspicions were correct, only a person trained to the highest level could have done this, especially a female. From now on, she would make a point of getting to know the oriental assassin, maybe in more ways than one!
