"Do you remember your mission Kira?" Boss asked me.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFh0QAHiGb
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRJN2mymTN
"Yes," I replied. "Kill the prince and anyone who sees."491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLryK8Fma9
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkkgTsU1mw
"Good. Do you have your weapons?"491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3arVPvfh99
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Vw1fqx5w4
I felt the throwing knifes strapped to my waist and made sure my special sword was strapped to my back.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpi8kdCW9o
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fvFXOgBhc
"Yes."491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugANeNz408
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSfFYMvhHC
"Good. Remember, when you kill him, try to make sure that no one's watching. If anyone sees, kill on sight. Do you understand?"491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CErrASeit
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4nkiNUb9J
"Yes."491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs7FpfEbCu

"Now be on your way."491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqbu4jcGrE

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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilMb2LQq9Y
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUhGI96bfb
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEPKhJazmq
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw5YYs6pJF
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTzHCdysUu

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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCF1zt4nT5O
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJk26ytSFa6
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgowACkaRd
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLO1tnNh8R
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhreEmKI2l
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmund95g3Hl
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0UtIyWumz
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJt5CU3aqG3
"...attack the city and try to minimize casualties," I heard the prince say.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhIo0JJF01
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzn3fsVAFF
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExOXM21v75
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ww9HOzoWh
I looked down and saw blue boat shaped figures surrounding my countries connection to the ocean. Glad I wasn't there right now.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEestVqv83n
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3C7eG6WvVx
"Mr. Assassin," the prince said looking up at where I was, "how long are you going to listen in on this?"491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzImclEuD9
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMwgoMq1zA
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?491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD89oaHT1K
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIuoa8zLmS
"Mr. Assassin," he said, "please make this easy and just give up."491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0eBcGm0ko
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2LKDu9ASg
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELUmB9Pd9r
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCnGqPp9ro
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j7Ys0ACx7
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7H6F87FjT
"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."491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqV0WXC6T3
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lLStx7vyY
"I'm not here to listen to your war plans," I said.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWerCtJcecu
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYfyyU4WEA
They looked at me. They all seemed quite surprised by my voice. Apparently it was higher than they thought it would be.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFSg2y8Rlb
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQF7cQ5Une
"Umm Nao," the prince, "could you take our assassins hood off?"491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQBoCEN0z4
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡath3ucEWNo
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6a29IZuG4G
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUB5l93WCa
Everyone in the room, no matter how professional they may seem, lost their composure for a second after seeing a girl assassin.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqboJgmbEB
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxWpoN42zl
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5P9YXnvzl
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBCcaWy9KY
"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?"491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU3b9gf2dy
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmUVpkW7Bg
I nodded.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimZgRELtLH
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNWM9nyN5a
"That's what I thought," he said. "Nao, could you please bring her to the dungeon?"491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEM893KdOQV
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgRHrUVyxn
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx7J0jrIpe
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7vL9Ew794
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?491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkgGaGu8xv
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTaUtSAdjO
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNna2EsglRU
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsoJPV3S4x
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpCQaVnVka
491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFToVMpcLb
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.491Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUwpZGOCuB
