Destiny [YiZhan FF]

Chapter 1 - The Order

 "Assassin, are you ready for a new order?"

"Yes sir."

"Good, then I hereby give you your new assignment. You will join a group of men who are to set out tomorrow morning to scout a suddenly discovered tunnel. We have reason to believe that this tunnel may lead to other new artifacts. Your task will be to get the other men out of the way, bring the artifacts up to you, and deliver them to us. Do you understand your mission and are you ready?"

"Yes sir. I understand everything."

"Very well. Then get on your way now. My assistant has already prepared everything for you so you can be on your way immediately."

"Thank you sir."

"Oh, and assassin?"

"Yes sir?"

"No survivors!"

"Of course not sir. I'll be on my way now then."

"Good, I'll see you back here in a few days then." The Assassin nodded and left the office.

The 24 year old assassin Wang Yibo, described as one of the best in his field, walked up to his principal's assistant and was given a backpack with his usual necessities. His weapons, clothes and false papers, a night vision device and other important and useful things.

For 6 years now he has been working for the man, named "Sigma", whose real name is known to only two people. Sigma himself and Wang Yibo, Sigma's nephew. But although the two are related and even live together in the same house, they treat each other like strangers. Client and executor, nothing more.

For Yibo, who had been trained as an assassin by his father and mother since he was four years old, it is better that he not form any emotional bonds. After all, these could hinder him in his work. As an assassin, he must be cold and unattached. Because, after all, that's how he learned it from his parents.

Neither Yibo, nor his big brother have ever known a normal family life. They were never asked if they wanted to become assassins. They only exist because their parents needed them as replacements, a new generation of assassins, to carry on the bloodline of the strong Wang assassins.

As soon as they were 4 years old, they began their hard and very strict training to become assassins. It was a hard life for the two of them. While other children of their age made friends, went to school together and played, they learned to fight and handle weapons. This was especially hard for Yibo's big brother. Because he would have liked to be just a normal boy, with a normal family and normal friends.

To prevent Yibo from becoming as soft-hearted as his big brother, his parents were especially hard on him. The only joy his parents allowed him were small white rabbits that he raised. They were his friends. He talked to them when he felt lonely or discouraged.

Then, when Yibo was 14 years old, his parents sent him to a training camp where he was trained for four years to become a perfect assassin. During those four years, he had no contact with his family. This was supposed to help cut the emotional bond between them. But Yibo had never really established an emotional connection with his family. Therefore, it was not difficult for him not to have any contact with them.

No sooner was he 18 years old and fully trained than he was put into Sigma's service. Yibo's uncle, who himself was once an excellent assassin. But since he fell from a roof during a fight and has been paraplegic ever since, he has acted only as a client and mouthpiece for the great unknowns of the assassin squad.

After Yibo took his backpack, he went outside to his motorcycle and immediately set off for the job location. He would have to drive all night. But that doesn't bother him. He loves those moments when he can ride his motorcycle through the streets undisturbed. In these moments, Yibo feels free.
