He sent me a letter, seeking my service. I met him in the night on the bridge on Southern Koguryo. \ \ ----l~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* / / <b>----------------------------------------------------------- "She is our target," he said to me softly, pointing to the shadowy figure at the bottom of the bridge, collecting some fresh water from the pure, clean river. "What do you need from her...?" -he knocks my head- "Her head dummy!" she might seem to be a fragile weak lady, but do not underestimate her. She will surprise you. -nods- <b>----------------------------------------------------------- Sneaking into the shadows, I crept slowly towards my target. This is my job, I had to do it. I had done this before, but it felt weird this time. Something was wrong. My heart beat faster than usual. "I am not supposed to be nervous... I am suppposed to be used to it..." I covered my face with my black mask, and quickened my steps towards my target. "Let's get this over and done with." Or so I thought. The lady's back was beautiful, her hair shone under the moonlight. I was mesmerized. I continued sneaking towards her, as she was filled her bucket with water from the river. As I went closer, the scent began familiar. It was this familiar fragrance, I smell every night, under the twinkling stars, at Dae shore. Suddenly, the lady turned around, and I was shocked. It was her, my fiance. Her eyes, were still as beautiful as ever. I was dumbfounded. "Why her?" <b>---------------------------------------------------------- "Who are you?" she shouted, retreating a few steps. I just stood there, with my eyes opened wide. I had nothing to say. My mind was in a twirl. This is my job, yet she is the woman I love... I had to make a choice.. Walking towards her, I took out my blade silently. With crystal-like tears in my eyes, I plunged the blade into her. Her eyes, were filled with hatred yet disappointment. She recongised me. "I'm sorry, rest well my love." I whispered in her eyes, removing the blade from her body. She collapsed onto the ground with a loud thud. Her hands pressing onto her wound, as she mumbled," I forgive you." My mind was twirling all this while, visions of the happy times we had together came into me. The tears that were hanging in my eyes, rolled down my cheeks. I turned around and headed back to the man. <b> -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- "My bag of money..?" I asked softly. Tossing a bag over , "Here. Well done and thank you." Catching the bag of gold, I took a peek inside. It was glittering gold nuggets. "Your welcome.." I replied, stabbing the blade into his body several times. -Laughing, I turned around and walked home- <B>"Trust no one.. my friend" <b>CoBBy Hyeon-San - Sin - | |
