Trisha D. Lockwood came from a very wealthy bloodline and had life handed to her on a silver platter. However, Trisha didn't want to be seen as a spoiled rich brat and made it a goal to befriend those that are normally picked on. It wasn't out of pitty or even trying to save those lesser than her. She simply didn't want to become one of the bullies that most rich kids in school become.
She also didn't like the idea of being helpless either. Especially after losing both her parents in a horrible accident. Trisha learned from the best martial arts teachers, among other self defense classes she could find. Also, she was secretly learning how to be a professional thief. After all, a girl needs to keep making a living somehow and since nothing out there peaked her fancy, she went in a different direction. It was the movies that inspired her the most and soon found someone to 'train' her in the craft.
Sadly, that 'trainer' happened to be the head of a high class mob in the area. Something she truly didn't wish to get involved with. Mobs were bad news and once you got in, it is nearly impossible to get out. Although, she did find some peace with them and did give them a cut of what she stole. Expect this last job she went on failed and she came close to getting caught by an unexpected trap.
Since she did not succeed in retrieving the item intended, Mr De Salles (the head mobster) became very disappointed. However, instead of punishing her in the old fashion he knew things about her than none of the others knew and came up with a special plan for her. The moment she stepped into his office, she knew right away that something isn't right. Especially after he gave her a diamond choker as a 'reward' for her efforts.
This diamond choker had multiple meanings behind it. For one, it couldn't be removed unless the true owner of it removed it himself. Secondly, it told this true owner that Trisha is a virgin. Of course, these are things that Trisha would never know, all except for not being able to remove it. That became obvious when she tried to take it off to reject the gift.
"I have a new job for you Trish. This item will require you to take my private helicopter far from here. It is a highly guarded castle, lots of traps. Do you think you can accept this job without failure?"
Trisha didn't like where this is going and glanced at the grinning henchmen standing behind him. If she refused, it could mean a punishment she wouldn't like and if she accepted, it allow her to prove to Mr De Salles that she isn't a failure. Not that she truly needed to prove herself to him, she is better than the thief that trained her.
"Yes Sir, I will accept this job. When do I leave?"
Mr De Salles grinned widened as she accepted and said "Right away."
Trisha barely had enough time to gather her gear before they escorted her to the secluded castle.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Once they landed she found herself a short distance away from the castle itself. They had to make it look like this is in fact a job for her. They even gave her the lay out of the land, the blue prints of the castle and everything she needed for the job. What they didn't mention is that the traps were not your everyday trap.
She spent one day out in the small cabin to examine everything she had to make this successful. That night, she waited until midnight before making her move and skirted her way through the darkness. She was surprised to find no security on the outside, at least none that could be seen.
Eventually she scaled up the side of a wall, hopping onto the first balcony she came to and crept into the dark room. The best she could hope for is that this room is vacant. The information she had been given told her that the owner lived alone with a few servants. This room is suppose to be empty from everything she had studied.
That was when the trap made itself known to her. The glass doors she came in, disappeared and turned into a solid wall. The door that should lead to the hallway disappeared as well, leaving her trapped in the room with no escape.
