The moon is bright tonight. I look at it from where I perch upon the rooftop of district two. I have a job to do but something is distracting my mind. It's been about a week now since Mason and I got together and so far, I've managed to keep it secret from my possessive ass-hole of a Boy-friend Nick. I frown, realizing I won't be able to keep it from him for much longer. Perhaps, when he finds out, I can watch Mason and Nick fight it out but I know that Mason will probably win, he's physically stronger and smarter than Nick. I let the smile creep back over my childish face and stand, preparing myself to run along the rooftops, a method of transport I've discovered to be quite convenient over the years. My heart quickens slightly in anticipation as I begin to run lightly over the roof towards the edge and I propel myself over the gap, landing safely on the next roof. A slight thrill runs through my body as I feel the wind rush past me, pulling my bun out and allowing my night black hair to fan out behind me. There is nothing quite like this feeling, this feeling of being so alive and free but I am not free, I will never be free as long as I am under my uncles orders. The number of times I have contemplated leaving, something always draws me back to that monster, I don't know why I am so compelled to stay but I am.
Since I met Mason a few months ago, I've noticed a change within myself. No longer am I so heartless or cold (Mind you, I still have no issues slitting someone's throat) nor am I uncaring. The walls I had built up over the years, he's somehow managed to bring some of them crumbling down around me but I like this feeling, this cared for, loving feeling that fills my chest every time I'm with him. We haven't gone all the way yet, I know that that's coming soon but for now, I'm content to just be with him. I can imagine the look on Nicks face when he finds out I'm with Mason, I imagine him being really pissed but not doing anything until later, although, the idea of what he could do to me sends chills up my spine. I push the thoughts of Mason out of my head and focus on what I have to do. I've been sent to kill someone by the name of Flare Fern, apparently, he owes my uncle a lot of money. He won't be expecting me to be a girl. I leap down from the roof, landing lightly on the balls of my feet and pull out Caido. The house I stand before is a run down building that is in desperate need of maintenance. A few of the windows are broken and boarded up while the door is all but missing. I silently slip through the door and enter the building, keeping my eyes open for movement.
Out of the corner of my eye, I spot the man I'm looking for crouched by a meager fire and trying to keep warm. Pity stabs my heart but I push it down, I cannot afford to feel pity for this man. Being as silent as I possibly can, I approach him, at least until I step on a piece of broken glass and it breaks beneath my boot. I curse and the man jumps, rising from his crouched position. He turns to look at me and I smile coldly. "Wh-who are y-you?" he stutters. I grin. "Death" I hiss before leaping at him. It is over in a moment, my dagger sliding across his throat before he falls limp to the floor. I hoist him up so that I'm half carrying half dragging him out to the back of the building. Ripred, what the hell does he eat? I wonder, dumping him unceremoniously on the ground. He falls and I look down at myself, realizing I'm a mess. I have blood on my shirt and skirt plus my hands are red and Caido is red too. I climb up onto the roof swiftly run towards my place on the outskirts of the district. Just as I am jumping down, I come face to face with the last person I expected to see at this time of day. "Mason?"
