Silence.
Light clothes.
Sharp daggers.
Serious mindset.
These are things needed to be an Assassin.
Assassin Pillow got all of those, and more.
He would sometimes even become one with the shadows.

Normally, Pillow would finish missions gained from the Assassin’s guild’s clients, but ever since he left, he couldn’t do those anymore.
So this mission was different, this was the first mission Pillow had done in weeks.
Now he was standing in front of the most secure jail of all of Baghdad.
Abu Ghraib.
This prison had withstood hundreds of riots, and never lost an inmate, not even innocent ones.
Two weeks ago, Pillow heard a rumor that it served as a private jail to jail warden Utba Waheed.
That’s why Pillow had researched this name in the details and had discovered many things, such as hidden bodies, allies, enemies and much more.

Pillow jumped up to the nearest wall, avoiding the electrical wiring.
He could see mister Waheed’s office from here.
Pillow looked out for any guards, then jumped a gap between the wall and the building.
He opened the window slowly, as to not to make too many noise.
He grabbed his short daggers, and jumped down towards Utba Waheed.
But then something seemed to just appear there in between the two of them.
it seemed green at first, but then it seemed to be some window into another world.
Pillow couldn’t understand this magic, and blacked out due to the hard fall.

Theo sat down in the living room, watching a body-building contest.
He wasn’t sure why he was watching that, he was never really interested in bodybuilding, with his rather skinny half-Human, half-Dend body.
Maybe Logan would be interested in this stuff Theo thought.
Logan was his Dragoned friend, who he met in another adventure on Vemia, the planet orbiting Earth.

But now that he was back on earth for four years, he couldn’t be happier.
He had married two beautiful women, who he met on the same adventure, found some friends and started a lab that researched everything about space, together with Natalie, his first girlfriend and now wife.
Vemia had left quite the impression on him back when he was sixteen.
“Huh, never knew you were into body-building” He heard behind him.
“Oh hey Natalie, I’m honestly just zoning off looking at some random channel.” Theo told her, “I’ve honestly just been bored lately. Hey, should we go back into the field and research some more on Vemia? or maybe another planet?”
Natalie sighed. “I know you’re bored, but we can’t have Marie and Mathew home alone now that Marie’s pregnant. You’re gonna have to find another hobby.”
Then it was Theo’s time to sigh. “I just can’t find any fun ones, I like adventure”
“I know, but let’s celebrate your birthday first, okay?”
Then they heard a knock on the door.
“I’ll get that” Natalie said.

Natalie opened the door to see Logan and May standing at the doorstep.
They came in with all congratulations and extended it to Theo and everyone sat down.
“So, how are you doing with your twenty-one years of age?” Logan asked.
Theo said, “Bored, but other than that pretty good.”
Logan chuckled a bit.
“Yeah, not everyday is an adventure like Vemia”

“By the way, where is Maria?” May asked Natalie.
“She wasn’t feeling well, y’know, pregnancy cramps.” She answered.
Then a little boy entered the room.
“Hey there lil’ chump, how are you doing today?” Logan asked him.
“How did Mathew get out of his bed?” Theo wondered.
Natalie picked Mathew up and went upstairs, to put him back in bed.
When she came back down she couldn’t believe her eyes.
On top of the table was a portal, sucking everything in its vicinity.
She saw Logan and Theo hanging on to anything they could, May already being sucked into it.
Natalie hung onto the door, but she couldn’t hang on for long.
They all blacked out as they fell into the portal.
