Broken and Alone

Chapter 1: Running away

My name is Kimiko Tetsuya. I shouldn't write about my life incase I endanger my family but I felt like I should write to let it all out and then maybe I will be able to learn to forgive myself. My story started out like this, I was born into a family of assassins. My whole family is an expert assassin even the girls in our family are trained to be professionals since they could walk and I was no exception. Ever since I started training I knew I didn't want to be an assassin. I don't like to hurt people or seeing people get hurt because of me. But I had know choice its either I train or be tortured everyday and believe me you don't want to know what kind of torture my mom has in store for those who break our family rules. What is ironic is that even though I'm the most reluctant one to be an assassin I am the most skilled one of the family. Even when I still a small child about 5 years old I already surpassed by older brother and sister when they were my age and did far better than my mother had anticipated. My mother calls me the child prodigy. Because of my natural skills she said "it is such a waste for her to wait until she is older to get a job". So she sends me on my first mission when I was 8 even though the rest of my family objected to the idea. She insisted that I was ready to handle a job. So she gives me the easiest job there was. Even though it was the easiest job it was meant for teenagers at the age of 13 at the very least. The ones who objected the most was my brother and sister I thought they did it out of concern but I found out later that they were jealous of me for being my mother's favorite.

Anyway I was on my way home from a mission and I was feeling depressed when I finally decided to escape this hell hole of life. When I reached home through the back door I saw my mother standing near the door with an expected look. "Well" her voice heavy with annoyance. I shook with fear but kept a cold expression on my face."I'm sorry for being late I got caught up". She slapped me across the face and growled "better not be late again or else you go to the room do you understand?" I just nodded. "Now hurry up and get dressed your fiancé does not like to be kept waiting" she demanded I just nodded again and left to my room. I quickly put my plan in action. After gathering all the necessary things I quickly and quietly as possible jump through my window.

The last thing she got from me was a letter saying "Goodbye mother and everyone else try finding me if you can."

I'm new at this so don't judge me. i hope you liked it and sorry for any spelling and grammar error.
