My heart was aching, I stared into the sky while the rain poured onto my face. My thoughts lingered towards the memories I was trying to forget, and I couldn't seem to shake the uncontrollable desire to take revenge on everyone in sight. Her blood still stained my clothes, and while it was slowly beginning to wash off my skin; the smell of it would never leave my thoughts. The moon was so bright, it was beautiful; yet all of it was tainted, with the idea of what had just happened. The overly eager new recruit in a local guild, had decided to take on a contract against me. His failure was the ending of his life, as well as the one I cared about the most. He had taken on more than he could handle, and I think the ones who had sent him knew this. It was my feeling that they didn't care much for him, taking him on just to get him to leave them alone. Why else would they have him come after me? It was my fault that she lay dead now though, I did not take all the precautions I should have; I also never expected for some one to come and attack me while I slept, to attack me in my home. His mistake, was that he attacked the wrong person. She lay in my bed that night, and I made the horrible choice to go and get something to surprise her with in the morning. When I walked into the room, the man stood above her body, his blade had fallen to the floor and he was grabbing his head unable to move; he did not expect this, he did not know what his out was after killing the wrong person. Of course he only had about two seconds to think after he had noticed I was in the room as well, and that two seconds would not be near enough time to save his own life. My sword was drawn, plunged into his body, and staring into his eyes. I could have made it quicker, but I chose to draw out his pain; since I would need to live with mine. All of this was flashing through my mind, as I stood there watching the stars in the rain; I felt lost, but I knew where I would be going next. Kicking the half dead mans body to wake him up, I ordered him to tell me the area where the guild was located and made him take me there to seek out my revenge. It was a long journey, and I made sure the pest who killed her would make it the whole way with me. A bit of a painstaking task keeping him on the verge of death, so after I knew where I was finally going; I took a dagger out of my pouch and stabbed it into his throat. My hello gift to his leaders once I made it to their hide out. Throwing the lifeless body onto their floor, I walked in with my weapons drawn and a large grin on my face. They weren't going to scare me, and when I made myself known; they came out screaming like little children, ready to come at me with everything they had. One down, two down, three... it wasn't long before I had taken care of all of them. They knew they were no match, I guess this was why they sent some one so new. Anyone who knew anything, would have known better. Once I was finished, I walked outside and was greeted by the rain once more. I looked up at it, I felt her near me as I stared up into the sky. It was time to make my journey down the long road back home, and while I would not be greeted by the smell of her perfume, or the smile on her face. This was for her... | |
