Assassin

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One minute I was in school and the next, I'm in this dark room. I slowly regain conscious and shift my head up.

"Where am I?" I say. I turn my head from left to right, focusing if a window has been opened. None.

"Mornin' love!" I hear a voice say. My mind hasn't regained conscious cause I have a hard time focusing on the voice. A few minutes later, No respond. I sigh and hear a groan behind me. I slowly turn my head and see a hint of dirty blonde hair behind me. William?

As his head raised, He accidentally head butted. I curse under my breath as I feel William trying to get out of the ropes.

"STOP." I say, annoyed. I was focusing on how to escape the ropes and I felt something poking my side. All I had on my side was my backpack. I felt the squirming stop and I reach for the bag, having a fairly hard time considering how tight we were.

As I decided to use my legs to reach the bag, I see something on it. A shuriken?! When I was young, Mr. Chan had me memorized a few throwing weapons. The kunai, which I have PLENTY in my bags, and a dagger, the one stuck in my bag. There's also a throw dagger, but I'm more into kunai.

I take the shuriken out and start dragging it up and down on the rope. I feel William's head slump down and I roll my eyes. It takes a few minutes for the rope to fall apart. I stand up and stretched myself out.

I turn around to see William behind me, about 5 inches away from me. He takes a step forward as I take a step back, falling on a bed. He starts coming closer and I grabbed the nearest sharpest thing, A broken glass.

"Zarina...I-I miss you." He says. I push him back and scoff. He just stands there, with his head low.

"Miss me? You don't even like me!" I yell. I covered my ears while trying to look for window. I focused my hearing on the hard wind. All I hear are pitter patters. It's raining!

I start focusing hard on the pitter patter and touch a rather cold surface. This will surely be the window. I knock on it and hear the response. It is glass. I look for an opening whatsoever. None.

I sigh and stretch my arms. I was gonna have to break through either ways. I take my stance and charge to the window. I hear the glass break and fall 2 stories down. I've been trained for this. I flip myself, doing a 30° angle and land on my feet.

I look up to see William, his face all sad and weary. I was too distracted to even notice my right hand was bleeding. I rip a part of my dress and wrapped it tightly on my hand. I reluctantly speed off, not recognizing the neighborhood.

I hear footsteps behind me to see William. He looks at me with such despair and I have no idea why. He catches up with me and keeps a distance.

"We're in an abandoned neighborhood." He says with his voice breaking a little. I nod and look out. "Why have you been avoiding me?"

I look at him suddenly and turn my attention back to the road. "Why do you care? How far are we?"

"We're about a few yards away." He says. I sigh and kept walking. Can this conversation get any awkward? I feel a pair of eyes on me and I was sure it wasn't William. It was like boring through my soul from behind. I turn and see nothing.

"I like you." I hear him say.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Sensei? Why should I-" As I was almost on the point brink of yelling, he runs away. I would chase after him if I wasn't too stiff and in deep pain. I sigh and look at a knocked out flat William. I shook him a little bit.

He groaned a bit and rolled over. This guy is seriously pissing me off. I analyze him up and down and smirk. Won't mind getting dragged on this crumbly road, will ya' William? I debated on whether stepping on his stomach oh so suddenly.

"Sorry..." I say. As I was readying myself up, Foot hovering over his body, his eyes flutter open. I immediately backed up and whistled casually.

"How long was I out and where's the guy?!" He rushed. I shook my head and he looked down. Now that I know it's not William that tried to kill me, Then I can like him again, Right? WRONG. I'm still suppose to kill him.

And then something nearly came shooting through my head like a bullet. I replayed what had happened before he showed up. WILLIAM CONFESSED TO ME!!

Inside I was fan girling, but I HAD to keep my cool. I take a quick glance at him to see he was walking 500 feet away from me. The heck is wrong with him?!

I run to him and grab his shoulders. He turns and looks at me with cold eyes. I step back a bit and was terrified. What had I done to make him look at me with such strange eyes?!

__William's POV__

My eyes open slowly to see Zarina whistling a few feet away from me, whistling. It takes a few seconds for me to realize what had happen.

"How long was I out and where's the guy?!" I say really fast. Zarina shakes her head and I look down. How could I be so weak?! My father trained me the arts of Ancient Kung Fu and yet, I was knocked out just like that?!

There's something suspicious. Zarina, Was she spared or did she fight him? There's something about Zarina that I don't know. As Zarina stood there, I took the time to walk away.

Zarina Robyn. Something is up and I plan to find out. I'm sorry, but I have to give you the cold shoulder until then. Robyn is a familiar last name. Maybe father knows.

I felt Zarina's hand on my shoulder and turn around. I'm sorry for what I'm about to do Zarina. I look at her with the most coldest stare I've ever given someone. She takes a step back and I turn on my heel and walk off.

Zarina Robyn. Beware

 

Just wait. Yes ma'am.
