After school I went and picked Tanali up then went back to my apartment and did my homework.
After I was done with my home work it was around 5. I made some spaghetti and we sat at the table.
Silence.
Tanali kept shooting me knowing looks and skeptical glances. I just shrugged it off and ate.
Thunder boomed outside and lightning crackled across the sky every so often. Rain tapped against the window rhythmically.
I tucked her into bed, I was about to leave when I heard her tiny voice," Can you sleep with me tonight? I'm scared."
I nodded then grabbed my pj's and stumbled into the bathroom. I changed into them and went back to the bedroom. I curled into a ball under the covers. Tanali curled next to me. "Good night, Arabella."
"Good night, Tanali."
And with that I drifted off to sleep.

I woke up, daylight streaming threw the window. I attempted to rub the sleep from my eyes, but was greeted with the sound of chains clinking together.
My eyes shot open immediately and I scanned the room for danger. No one was there but me.
I now regretted getting a 4 post bed because I was chained to it with hand cuffs at the moment. My arms were held up behind me and my feet were outstretched in front of me.
I just hoped this wasn't a rape attempt.
I looked around the room for a key or something to help me. I sighed finding nothing useful.
Then I remembered my claws.
You see, my nails are longish and hard to break, making them the closest thing to a lock pick as I could find.
I turned my hand in a weird way and dug my nail into the key hole.
I smiled triumphantly when I heard the 'click' of the lock.
I pulled my now freed hand away from the bedpost. I set to work on my other hand. I unlocked it, then heard another click.
The door swung open and I tore the cuffs from the bedpost and tore the hinges off if them. Not gonna lock me up again bitches.
I turned and saw James standing there with an amused expression on his perfect face...wait a minute, stop thinking that Arabella he is looking at you while you're half chained to a bed. Focus.
I looked at him, then saw Tanali standing behind him, smirking.
"Well, well, well. Looks like the world best assassin has been captured."
I rolled my eyes then inched down to my feet. "Well, I wouldn't say I was the best, very good. But best? No." I smiled sweetly as the lock clicked open.
I took the hand cuff, one foot still locked to the bed, I swung around and grabbed James hand. I locked the hand cuff to his wrist then clamped the other one onto the bed post.
"Looks like we're both trapped now, but I have an advantage."
He cocked his head," Oh yeah? What's that?."
I unlocked the other handcuff and jumped off the bed, landing behind Tanali. "Claws."
I locked the other handcuff on his other wrist then onto Tanali's smaller wrist. "I would live to stick around, but you must see I need to leave."
I grabbed a bag from my closet, I kept food clothes money and necessities in there just incase of incidents like this one.
I put red lipstick on and kissed both of their cheeks, Tanali tried to hit me, but I dodged easily.
I injected her with a poison just as I had done to James at the park. She was out in a few moments.
I carved a heart into her arm. I know she is a child, but the child fell to be my victim by going against me.
"You'll never make it out of here, I have guards scattered around town and two guarding your front door. You're trapped." He said while holding Tanali up.
I smiled," Who said anything about the front door?" I climbed out the window and jumped to the other building.
I looked down the the ground and saw two guys standing near the front door. They looked like normal people, but their posture scream 'secret agent'.
I put my iPod on shuffle and put my headphones in. 'SOS' by Rihanna played.
I whistled and the two guys looked up to me. There faces went cold as they started up the fire escape.
I jumped to the next roof, then the next, then the next. I looked back to see only one guy.
Either one of them stayed behind or they went 'bye bye' permanently.
I jumped off the one story building and onto the pavement. I kept running till I got to the outskirts of the town. In the forest.
I ran, dodging threw the tree's. I ran up a tree, breaking the branches in the process. I looked down and saw a big tree, and a red faced agent panting, using the tree as a prop to keep him up.
I smiled, then he looked around, like he wasn't sure were I had gone.
I sighed, shame his life will end so soon. He looks pretty young, but still older then me.
I pulled a dagger my bag then whistled. He looked up hesitantly, he should be fearful of me. I'm like a loose cannon..maybe I should let them take me, let them tame the killer within me...nah. I threw the dagger, not letting the thought go any further. It landed right in the middle of his forehead. Bullseye.
I jumped out of the tree and grabbed my dagger. I pulled a leaf from a tree and cleaned the blood from it. Was it so hard to keep your blood to a minimum? I mean seriously, blood stains.
I put it back in my bag and ran again.
As the sun began to sink I scaled another tree, making sure to break the branches in the process, I didn't want anyone to get me as I slept.
I went all Katniss and pulled some rope from my bag and tied myself to the tree. I was about 20 feet up, so a ladder shouldn't be a me to reach me.
I hung my bag on a nearby branch and slept.
