Summary
The Old Guard take a job as a favour to Copley, a simple data extraction. Joe is tasked with leveraging the target's niece Isabella to gain access to the info.
But when this orphaned 22 year old student rises as the newest immortal with absolutely no skills for a life in this team, it's up to Joe and Nicky to get her combat ready.
What could possibly go wrong?

Isabella turns around from the bench to peer at him critically. She slowly puts down her coffee. Her lack of response draws Nicky’s attention and he turns to look at her. Isabella regards them both determinedly and in a flash of movement grabs the kitchen knife and stabs herself in the upper thigh. They both rush forward but she stops them with a fierce look.
“Unghh…” She grunts, staring them both down as she extracts the blade. Isabella breathes through the pain with one eyebrow raised. “Seems like I’m not the only one who needs to get used to the idea of my immortality?” she says smugly.
