Enemies... or is it?
Ember and Scarlet have been enemies for months. They hate each other's guts. Ember is a secret agent who takes down villains. Scarlet is the smartest scariest villain on the entire continent. This is their origin and the beginning of the loathing.
~Scarlet's POV~
One of my minions seem a little dubious and she has for days. She keeps following me everywhere I go, despite her orders to work on the complete other side of the factory. I've been giving her really crappy jobs on purpose in the hopes that she'll learn her lesson. Today I decide I'll follow her around the factory to make sure she does what she's told.
"Amber would you be a dear and put that box into the transport truck?"
"Yes ma'am," she answers me and does as she's told for once.
"Amber please clean this disgusting stain on the floor," I demand.
"Yes ma'am."
The entire day she follows my orders so I decide that come tommorow I'll take it easy on her.
~Ember's POV~
I worry Scarlet might be onto me. Why else would she follow me around? My cover is blown, but I can't give up yet. I don't know her next evil plan and there's a chance she doesn't know. I am one of the best spies in my league.
The next day is a lot less stressful for my role, however I flinch at every single tap on the floor, just waiting for her to find out. She walks over to me and I mentally prepare myself to battle.
"Hi Amber," she says to me.
"Oh, hi boss," I reply.
"I just wanted to say good job on doing what you were supposed to yesterday. Also thanks for following my orders while I was right by you. Maybe you could follow orders more often so I don't have to stand next to you while you work?"
"Yes ma'am I'll try."
"Good. Since that's that I'm going to check on the other minions. Remember just do what I tell you and we're good, Amber." She walks away and I take a big breath of air.
Scarlet still keeps an eye on me all the time, but as long as I follow her orders she doesn't say anything. I decide it'd be fun if I ignore her orders so I can talk to her. Maybe I can get information. My bosses at the agency are dissapointed I haven't figured out what she's making yet and stopped her.
~Scarlet's POV~
I see Amber putting a box in the wrong spot. It's supposed to go on the complete other side of the factory. I walk toward her. "Amber! What do you think you're doing with the boxes?" I ask.
"I thought they went here." She gestures innocently to where she put them.
"They most certainly do not. You've been working here for 2 weeks, you know where stuff goes by now."
"What even are the boxes for?"
"They hold parts that my most trusted minions who build stuff for me."
"How would one get there?"
"Follow orders and put stuff where it belongs. Please fix this and put the boxes in right spot this time," I request then walk away.
~Ember's POV~
I find it funny how they say she is the smartest villain, yet she is playing right into my hands unknowingly. She's not the worst villain morally speaking, but she keeps acting up so often that I must keep an eye on her.
~2 weeks of manipulation later~
Scarlet has decided to let me into her little club of construction minions since I've even so good at following her rules. There's nothing incriminating that I can tell yet.
After a few more weeks I realize she's trying to create brainwashing devices to have the world bend to her will. I report her to my bosses at the spy organization and remain undercover for the mean time.
~Scarlet's POV~
"There is a rat among us," I say to all my minions. I have ordered a meeting to figure out who is the mole. "Someone decided to tell some spy organization about my plans and they are trying to stop me. Whoever this spy is, must still be here undercover. If you come forward and reveal yourself, I will take sympathy upon you and your punishment will be tolerable. If you stay hidden and continue to rat us out, I will find you and you will know true pain."
The crowd of minions seems intimidated except for a few, the ones who have worked with me since the beginning. They know they're safe. Everyone else seems to doubt theirselves. I dimsiss them then try to make some form of data to find the culprit.
~Ember's POV~
How did she find out? I hand delivered the letter once I got out of work. That must mean someone from the agency is...
