The Death

A few years later Ethan had created a number of designs for the company and as all the heads of the other companies were dead he easily took over the business in the country. He worked with the government on many new weapons. He still had the interest in weapons and over the years he liked to invent new types of weapons. His new weapons which were sold well in the market. He remained anonymous because he wanted to have a calm life. He gave his nephew the full reigns of his company.

His nephew had grown to be a successful businessman. He was successful in expanding the company to make it the biggest company in the world. But he still made Ethan the chairperson of the company because he felt that it was Ethan who made the company so it was him who deserves to have the highest authority.

Ethan didn't care much about the position. He was mostly interested in making better weapons. He went on to make many connections in the government because of his work.

He found out that the country was in threat from a terrorist organisation. They planted a few bombs in the country but luckily they were diffused with the help of their spies. The people in government thought it would cause a big problem for them if the terrorist organisation continued to be alive.

Ethan wanted to help the country but he didn't know how. He thought of helping intelligence services by making weapons. He had helped them in making a few modified versions of weapons that were needed for some specific projects.

Ethan was fascinated by their skills and wanted to learn for himself. He asked the leader of the intelligence services to teach him the skills. The person in the intelligence services had seen many people ask him before as well to teach them the skills but he never got that request from rich businessmen before.

He had a mission which needed someone like Ethan to accomplish so he decided on what to do.He told Ethan that he would be treated as any regular person if he really wanted to learn the skills. Ethan accepted immediately and he had to sign a form which said that he should not teach others the skills he learnt and also that he will be considered an agent of the intelligence services. So in the future he might be required to work for them.

Ethan found the conditions to be fair because the techniques were the things that were developed over the years to give advantage to the country over others so there was the need to have them made specifically such that it was hard for just anyone to learn them.

Ethan signed the contract and became a recruit of the intelligence services. So he trained under them for the various techniques which could be useful for him in case enemies try to ambush him or he needed to interrogate others. He had started learning fighting techniques, interrogation techniques, covert operation methods and hunting. He wanted to be prepared to defend himself if anyone were to come after his life.

He was told to hunt regularly as it would help him improve his shooting skills. He was given a specific place for shooting as well because even for hunting there was a need for regulating the type of animals that people killed. Only the ones in abundance in nature were allowed to be killed.

Ethan completed his course and was officially made the agent of the intelligence services. He was older than the regular agents so they would not need him as much as a regular agent. He was required to be ready for deployment if they needed him to but for the time being her could return to his regular life.

He returned back to designing weapons. He designed new weapons which would be more concentrated towards cover operations. After going through the training he got some ideas which helped him get inspiration for new types of weapons.

When the information on their enemy was found the leader of the intelligence services decided to select Ethan as it was the reason he had agreed to teach to Ethan in the first place.

A year later he was called for a mission in Japan. He was supposed to be a rich businessman who went there to construct a new hotel. He was sent to find out information about a business man who was supposed to be have links with the terrorists.

Ethan went and acted his part of the businessman and found a way to get near the person whom he was supposed to target. The man despised foreigners. So Ethan found it hard to meet him. Finally one day he got a chance to meet the person.

He challenged Ethan to a sword fight. He said that he would only acknowledge Ethan if he could defeat him. They used wooden swords to fight and he easily defeated Ethan and told him not to contact him unless he could give him a tough fight.

Ethan was disappointed as he knew that he would not be able to complete the mission anytime soon. He contacted the agency who told him to learn Kenjutsu which was traditional swordfighting method of Japan.

They had one person who was good at swordfighting in the agency but he was on another assignment. Ethan was told that if he could learn the swordfighting within the year he could continue with the mission. Otherwise they would sent the other agent after the year.

Ethan found a dojo where he trained for a year. He wanted to defeat the person regardless of whether he could complete the mission. He would practice daily till he became efficient with the sword.

He went to the person for a second match. This time the match went on for a lot of time and in the end Ethan won.

The person said "Congratulations on winning against me. In the recent years all my plans had been failing due to spies in the organization. So I planted some of my spies in my enemies agency. It took some time to recieve the information but last month I got the information of all the spies in the organization. Little did I know that the businessman from that company would also be a spy."

Saying that he had his people restrain Ethan and he picked a gun and aimed at him. he said "if only your agency was as dedicated at keeping the agents safe as you were at trying to defeat me this day would not have come. You can only blame your agency for your death." saying that he shot Ethan.
