"Do you remember your mission Kira?" Boss asked me.552Please respect copyright.PENANAPvvajqw5hY
552Please respect copyright.PENANAx9hGijZrQf
"Yes," I replied. "Kill the prince and anyone who sees."552Please respect copyright.PENANAnzK0PjmOpA
552Please respect copyright.PENANAaTWgpeeN2i
"Good. Do you have your weapons?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAJCqmPWvuol
552Please respect copyright.PENANAd7ZpkoJIyM
I felt the throwing knifes strapped to my waist and made sure my special sword was strapped to my back.552Please respect copyright.PENANAIIbIVC02uk
552Please respect copyright.PENANAfrVJKGjTcf
"Yes."552Please respect copyright.PENANAohQ53YquLN
552Please respect copyright.PENANAPRkroZ3kE9
"Good. Remember, when you kill him, try to make sure that no one's watching. If anyone sees, kill on sight. Do you understand?"552Please respect copyright.PENANACvn6x5y3cN
552Please respect copyright.PENANAZRSlmdW87s
"Yes."552Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0EKUlukYs
552Please respect copyright.PENANAaKTMu5k64N
"Now be on your way."552Please respect copyright.PENANAzU5XLm8QZB
552Please respect copyright.PENANAtnQbTvZ74i
I walked out of the room. I was headed to the neighboring country of Hikari, which literally means light. The people of my country, Kurai, which means dark, had been at war with them for years. My job was to kill the prince of Hikari before he was crowned king. I could personally care less about saving our country, I was just obeying orders.552Please respect copyright.PENANApQjOPW4X8M
552Please respect copyright.PENANAmI7qFxsqlG
The people of each country had specific markings that set them apart from other countries. For example the people of Kurai have dark eyes. The people of Hikari all have brightly colored eyes. My eyes are red, which are rare but only appear in my country.552Please respect copyright.PENANAOXJg8ND2fR
552Please respect copyright.PENANAnUJFbduesc
The trip to Hikari would take 3 days by boat. I boarded my boat. We were lucky to get me on this boat. After the war started, most boats stopped taking people to Hikari. Actually, the boat I was on was a pirate ship that had agreed to take me for a cheap price. It had been a while since I had been on a boat. I went to my room. It was a small room bellow deck. Boss didn't bother paying extra to get me a big room because he knew I didn't really care where I slept. He was right, I could care less.552Please respect copyright.PENANAEtan9P4ouv
552Please respect copyright.PENANA0ToQY74frv
I slept through the first night pretty well. I only woke up once when I was sent flying off my bed by a huge wave. Other than that I slept fine.552Please respect copyright.PENANAfRsJRKZMzO
552Please respect copyright.PENANALEJlKbFtGH
The next morning, I went up to waste some time on deck. The pirates pretty much ignored me and just went on with whatever it is they do. I don't think it was that they didn't care I was there, I think it was just that Boss had told the captain that I was an assassin. I think that none of them wanted to mess with a cold blooded killer.552Please respect copyright.PENANALUGjlsAqlO
552Please respect copyright.PENANAWxfXErfrIB
After the 3 days were over, they dropped me off in the Capitol city, Suta, or star. I pulled my hood over my head and kept it tilted down so nobody could see my eyes and black hair, which was an unnatural color here. It was rather easy to sneak into the Capitol building. I went in through one of the air circulators on the side of the building. I found the prince in a war meeting discussing his battle plans with 6 other men, probably his war advisors.552Please respect copyright.PENANA3e3kjlSKsF
552Please respect copyright.PENANASae5BgIXO2
I decided to listen in. I didn't really care what happened to the rest of my country, I just wanted to know where I would be the safest if I was ever there during the attack. I looked in and saw a map lying on the floor. It showed the country of Hikari and the country of Kurai. It showed blue figures, representing his country, and red figures representing mine.552Please respect copyright.PENANAR3QNVyqyNY
552Please respect copyright.PENANAE75v2i4oNQ
"...attack the city and try to minimize casualties," I heard the prince say.552Please respect copyright.PENANAW5WEdlt6ln
552Please respect copyright.PENANA6wV7vuE97H
Why would he care about another countries casualties? This country was so messed up. I guess mine was too, they also cared about other people. I guess moat people are like that. Weird.552Please respect copyright.PENANAgdQ93f5sMo
552Please respect copyright.PENANAD4IxTwdsKS
I looked down and saw blue boat shaped figures surrounding my countries connection to the ocean. Glad I wasn't there right now.552Please respect copyright.PENANAcEYEsmHvRN
552Please respect copyright.PENANAPKXx3NzIFw
"Mr. Assassin," the prince said looking up at where I was, "how long are you going to listen in on this?"552Please respect copyright.PENANABFdSqQocTx
552Please respect copyright.PENANAwyhKEWUqVH
How did he notice me? I quickly turned around and tried to run away. But it was too late. There was one of the men from the meeting sitting right in front of me. I glanced down into the small room and saw that he was no longer at his spot next to the prince. How'd he get here so fast? How didn't I notice?552Please respect copyright.PENANA9gnLjNXlPw
552Please respect copyright.PENANA7GEWzAmP3g
"Mr. Assassin," he said, "please make this easy and just give up."552Please respect copyright.PENANAPgwNPPCZaA
552Please respect copyright.PENANAYEtHRNssA7
Why did they keep calling me Mr. Assassin? Ohh. I still had my hood on. And I guess this business wasn't exactly one for a girl in this day and age.552Please respect copyright.PENANAqXUdftPpJY
552Please respect copyright.PENANAgLDoood6nr
I decided it would just be easier if I just gave up. It would be easier to escape once they saw that I was a girl and let their guard down. The man brought me down to the small meeting room. He held tightly onto my wrists behind my back.552Please respect copyright.PENANAgHYKHun7Lv
552Please respect copyright.PENANAMHcBq2Rem2
"Let me guess," the prince said. "Your from Kurai and you here to listen in on our plans for the next attack. Sorry, but it's too late the attacks already begun. But don't get to worried, I'm trying to avoid as many casualties as possible."552Please respect copyright.PENANAD9QmkOgJUT
552Please respect copyright.PENANAuNbUpklEgH
"I'm not here to listen to your war plans," I said.552Please respect copyright.PENANAMTiLUl7T3a
552Please respect copyright.PENANArlgXUv57jK
They looked at me. They all seemed quite surprised by my voice. Apparently it was higher than they thought it would be.552Please respect copyright.PENANApxbSwyWoI0
552Please respect copyright.PENANAxIdhJzrQ6r
"Umm Nao," the prince, "could you take our assassins hood off?"552Please respect copyright.PENANA5of6i6PYRg
552Please respect copyright.PENANAGasZPjXdg8
The man holding my wrist let go with one hand but still held on a little to tightly for me to escape with the other. He pulled the hood of my head.552Please respect copyright.PENANA2QjFP5ZHbR
552Please respect copyright.PENANAAjC8exySry
Everyone in the room, no matter how professional they may seem, lost their composure for a second after seeing a girl assassin.552Please respect copyright.PENANAcL95xiaN1q
552Please respect copyright.PENANAgOpnomB65W
The man holding my wrist immediately relaxed his grip on my wrists, probably without even realizing it. Now I just had to wait for the right moment to escape.552Please respect copyright.PENANAitDtResla9
552Please respect copyright.PENANAOb71yFJnMK
"Okay Mr. I mean Miss Assassin," the prince said, "if your not here to listen in on our conversation, then I'm guessing you're here to kill me. Right?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAkyAe5Db5AY
552Please respect copyright.PENANAnPAhaIzBl8
I nodded.552Please respect copyright.PENANA7RnjdGpjC1
552Please respect copyright.PENANApnyM02XHl0
"That's what I thought," he said. "Nao, could you please bring her to the dungeon?"552Please respect copyright.PENANA7IWJOhI7DL
552Please respect copyright.PENANA1eyhTslERe
This was my chance. I broke one of my wrists free from his grip and grabbed 3 kunai. I used one to stab the person behind me in the shoulder and the other 2 I threw at the prince. Before they could both reach him, one of his men stuck his arm in the way of the path of the knife. He took one of them in the arm, but only managed to change the direction of the other. It curved slightly and, instead of hitting him in the neck like where it was aimed, it hit him on his left arm. He let out a hiss and pain and I made my escape.552Please respect copyright.PENANATrPqSbuFLS
552Please respect copyright.PENANAhozqFV2XvQ
I ran down the halls and heard voices yelling behind me. To bad for them, I was faster than anyone is ever met. I made it out of the building, and ran into the forest out of the back. Crap. I suddenly remembered that I forgot to kill all the people who saw me. Suddenly everything went quiet. I looked back and saw that no one was chasing me. Why'd they stop?552Please respect copyright.PENANAz12iAjfh4e
552Please respect copyright.PENANAQrr0iPiApH
I kept running forward and was almost caught by a trap. That's why they weren't chasing me. They figured that these traps would get me. I have to admit, their use of old traps was smart, but it was too old fashioned to catch me.552Please respect copyright.PENANAcT5YtjGENO
552Please respect copyright.PENANAsTUM9h0xon
I jumped over hidden wholes in the ground and avoided nets that suddenly shot up in front of me. So many traps! When does this end? I was getting tired. I got caught in one of the nets. It was too cramped to move and grab any of my kunai or the sword strapped to my back.552Please respect copyright.PENANAXMY3LCdwKw
552Please respect copyright.PENANA6PHkEsdFvD
I was probably going to be trapped there until they came to get me in the morning or they'd leave me there forever. Either way I was going to die pretty soon. Oh well after the life I've lived, death was probably the only good thing I had coming. I decided to just sleep until morning.552Please respect copyright.PENANAqNwgdHdGTh
