An assassins pride

Chapter 3: the small town of shallen

Error pov: I woke up shivering. I breathed and I watched as white, cold air blew from my mouth. My cloths and hammock sat soaked, the cold water pooled into my old hanging bed from the storm the night before. I slowly crawled out of the wet tomb and slowly walked down the concrete stairs. I took off my when scarf and slowly took off the multiple layers of clothing I wore, all of which where soaked. I grabbed one of the blankets from the small bean bag and used it to dry Any remaining water off of me. I rung out my cloths to the best of my ability and spread them out on the floor in order to allow the beaming sun above me to dry them. I wrapped myself in another blanket I had and curled up on the beanbag. Due to the fact that that beanbag was in the corner, not under the vast hole in the ceiling, it was dry. I looked up at the bright blue sky, Not a cloud in sight, as the sun threatens to blind me. I couldnt stop thinking of last night.

I had to kill ink but..

Blue..

He trusts me and I cant tell him anything.. Nightmare will have my head if anyone finds out about what his plans are.. why does he even want inm dead!? What did he do to him?? Inks a good leader. Especially compared to all the cruel, older kings..

I'm not afraid to die. I deserve it after all the lives I've took. But blue..? I cant let him die..! Even if he hates me afterwards....!

I looked at the dirty satchel that sat soaking wet by my clothing, opening the dirty bag to look inside at everything.

My daggers, a pocket knife, a small bag of gold, a small bag of bread and carrots, a lock pick, and a few fabrics. Everything was soaked. I emptied everything and layed it out, hoping that it would dry quickly.

I reached behind the bean bag and grabbed the grapple that I didnt bring yesterday. A huge mistake on my part. At least it wasnt wet.

Maybe I could make another bag while that one dries..? I think as I look back at the sewing and knitting suplies peaking out from under the bean bag.

No.

I dont have time.

I have to think of how I would take down the king. For blue... Sorry blue, but you told me to be safe, And this is the safest option for the both of us.

I grab the dirty, wet dagger that I had used to harm so many others. My old friend.

Well ol' girl, Let's get to work..

Ink Pov: I felt my eyes flutter open as the morning sun welcomed me to the vast world of sunrises. The comfort of silk sheets and a large comforter covered me. A comfortable mattress lay under me as I slowly sit up, yawning audibly. A royal yellow ceiling sat far above me as a large chandelier sat shining brightly. I must have forgot to turn off the lights. I stood up as a comfortable carpet welcomed my feet. White walls sat hidden behind multiple paintings that littered my room. A large window sat opened as the sunlight shined past the navy blue and gold curtains. I opened the large window door and was welcomed to warm autumn air as I stepped out onto the marble balcony. White, thick railings sat strong as I leaned on them, looking down at my kingdom and its streets.

I saw citizens rush up and down the streets and children run and scream with joy. Merchants yelled as they sold their goods, florists handed out beautiful bouquets, and farmers gave away their fresh crops. I looked down to see my maids and butlers tending to the flower garden, far below my skyline balcony. The bright colors of lillies, Rose's, dandilions, daffodils, and thousands of other flowers made me smile. I walked back into my vast room and slipped off my red and silver robe, dropping it to the floor as I walked over to my large wardrobe, opening it and grabbing my outfit, slowly putting it on.

I stepped infront of my mirror to look at myself, smiling and happy. A brown, slit neck turtle neck sat under a red vest. Blue scarf sat around my waist and black Jean's with white swirls at the bottom complimented my black shoes. Gold jewelry sat at my neck and hands. A bright gold crown sat on my head with jewels the color of the rainbow circling its brim. Lastly, I set a necklace around my neck, its rainbow pendant shining brightly. I set a small pin on my shirt. The pin held a marking of a globe, splattered in gold and drawn by a paintbrush. It was the label of my kingdom. The kingdom of 'new worlds' i called it. I smiled as my reflection smiled back. My blue and yellow eye glistened as my pale face with black, splattered paint on my cheek formed a smile. Black swirl tattoos peaked out from the slit turtleneck and added a little bit of variety to the colorful outfit I wore. I took a deep breath as I walked out of my room through the large door, and was welcomed to a long hallway.
