Assassin's journey through Remnant (RWBY x Female OC! Assassin)

Volume 1. Second Shot, Second Dead

"Crème Brûlée?" The Manager said.

"Yep, that is one of my many ideas."

"So you basically make pudding then torch the top?" Fumiha asked, in her uniform and wearing her extensions, even though we're closed.

"You are putting it lightly but yeah."

Éclair? Crêpe? What are these? And oh! Macaroons there's one I know."

"Fumiha... we're a French café, and you barely know any of the foods?"

Fumiha looked away from my eyes, and blushed a little.

"Forgive my daughter, she's not the best when it comes to food. She has her mother's genes." He laughs.

"Very funny dad!" She shouted.

"Mother? I don't think I've met your mother yet. Ne, Why is that?"

"..." Fumiha grew silent, then when upstairs to her bedroom.

"Sorry, her mother or my wife died a few years back. And she blames herself of her death." The Manager said.

"What happened to her, if you wouldn't mind sharing."

Damn a dead parental figure.

What kind of trauma does everyone I know have?!

"We... don't exactly know ourselves, but Fumiha-she got into a fight with her mother and refused to come a long with her to run an errand. But the next day—her mother was found dead."

"What..." To be honest that hurt me.

I didn't understand feeling a loved one die, after all I killed many—But Ely reminded me what death felt like. A corrupt society. Her sister gave me THE job, so that I could meet her. Prior I only lost someone similar to Fumiha's conditions.

"I... I'll go check on her." I said to the Manager, while he nodded and I headed upstairs.
________

I reached her door.

It was adorable as always, it had a pink name tag on the door-nob saying
'The Key To My Heart, Fumiha -Harin Chains.'

I knock on her door, "Hey Fumiha... can we talk?"

"..Sure... come in.." she said, while her voice sounding muffled.

I open her door, while she was sitting on her bed.

"How close where you with your mother?" I said, sitting beside her.

"Very close. My mother and I we—we were inseparable." She laughs.

"Then how did you... fight?"

"Heh.. she said, that I should choose my path in life, live something that isn't a family employee. A huntress, policewoman, anything that actually would make happy. To her I seemed like I didn't enjoy working here. We didn't have the talent that you or dad have for cooking, but mom really only taught me to just make a sandwich. And she taught me it. But— that fight came, I was selfish... I was scared of risking what I already had. But my shitty childish behaviour did make me lose a part of my world.. Dad tried to comfort me, and he did—we promised; we looked and looked through files. That's why I chose the job as an assassin."

"I... can understand you pain. Ne, I hated my mother, we fought on multiple occasions, she abused my sister. So I-I ran. My father left before I was even born. I've been alone ever since. I had to do everything myself, cook, live out in the world. Alone, cried alone. Until I was given an opportunity, to change. I of course took it, because I-I was just desperate, they act as a family gave me a school chance. My life fully changed, for a while. Ne, but it wasn't for me, I chose something that fit me. Playing someone else. I had a job in theatre, then once again... I ran from that family. I changed my name every once in a while. Then I met her. Ne, I met Ely and I fell. She was the one who fully changed my life. But after a few months I read an article, about my own sister and how she was beat to death. I knew at that moment, 'I will kill that BITCH!' And so with the help of Ely and own sister; I managed to kill my birth-mom. Then her sister hired me as her hitwoman, kill anyone who messes with her or Ely. But Ne... Ely died. So I almost lost all of my emotions for years. I kill as a job, I forgot about everything else. Then I. Died. It was fast. Everything came back, everything. I cried at the death of Ely. And smiled at my past in Theatre. But out of all emotions I didn't once feel the feeling of Regret. My-my heart.. am I even allowed to say I have a heart? I don't even know... It was never the same... but... Ne, lastly I really back then and now here I am." I said, while Fumiha looked at me with a shocked yet confusing look.
