    Plot

    Lynn and her sister Sue are computer hackers, assassins and espionage specialists who use their late father's secret satellite technology to gain an advantage over their rivals and law enforcement agents. At the beginning of the film, they infiltrate a high security building and assassinate Chow Lui, the chairman of a top company in Hong Kong.

    After their successful mission, a police inspector named Kong Yat-hung is assigned to investigate the case and she manages to track down the assassins. In the meantime, Chow Lui's younger brother Chow Nung, who hired Lynn and Sue to kill his brother so that he can become the chairman, wants to kill the assassins to silence them. The cat-and-mouse chase becomes more complicated as both the police and the thugs are out to get Lynn and Sue.

    So Close

    by: Libbie Schrader

    You sit here beside me
    At the corner of my eye
    If you move just a little
    We'll be touching that line
    All that you've given
    All that you've done
    Could still be forgiven
    If you were found out
    And you bring me here so close
    To the single thing that I want the most
    But it's just a ghost
    It won't be given
    You play me so sweet
    Does she know that you come to me
    While her light is burning late for you?
    The words that you've spoken
    Only to me
    Still haven't broken
    That promise that you keep
    But you bring me here so close
    To the single thing that I want the most
    And it's just a ghost
    It won't be given
    You play me so sweet
    Does she know that you come to me
    While her light is burning late for you?
    You play me so sweet
    And I start to forget that she's
    Got her light burning late for you
    So you lead me here this far
    But you'll be recognized now for what you are
    Close, but still too far
    For what I'm wishing
    Oh, you play me so sweet
    Does she know that you come to me
    While her light is burning late for you?
    You play me oh so sweet
    I don't know what you want from me
