The Archers Mark (on hold)

Miss Your Moment

In case this doesn't work for some reason, it's supposed to be Miss Your Moment.

Stars pov.

I craved and chopped at my arrows wood as my legs dangled from my window seal. Anything to keep my mind from wondering. Well I was failing. Like I do everyday. 

XXXXXXXXXXX

"I'm not, surprised that it was you that was sent after me. Little Star." General Versions stated as she straddle my midsection. Her sneer integrated in my memory forever. I watched terrified as she held her clean un used dagger just under my eye the tip barely pushing in to my skin..

"Shut up!" I yelled at her closing my eyes and turned my head quickly. I didn't know if the dagger would catch me but I didn't want to be under her anymore. But sure enough as I felt my skin tear and stinging on my left cheek increase I knew what I had done.

Suddenly to distract me from my stinging face, I felt Her knees dig in to my wrists where she had me pinned. I felt the pressure of her Haki on my bones, my own Haki trying desperately to help. But it was failing.

"Shhh.. Shhh Its okay." Whispered Versions as she pushed her knees down harder on my wrists, leaning in to me as I yelled in pain.

"That'll leave a nasty scar, I bet you wish you didn't fight me huh?" Her voice hauntingly ringing in my head. I opened my mouth as I stared at her to speak when she stopped me.

 " Now, now, We wouldn't want my hand to slip again now would we?" She asked. Holding up the knife to her eyes then readjusting it in her hand and brought it down towards my face.

"I will kill you." I growled. As I watched in fear as the Knife touched my skin.

Version 'tsked' me, each time taping the cold steel against my face. "I wouldn't want to ruin this beautiful face of yours now would I?"

I closed my eyes every time she hit my cheeks. Why did I do this? I stayed silent, she smiled. And hummed.

"Anyway. What was I saying? Oh yes. It had to be you. Chill was dead. (Cackle) Hell all the others were dead too. Hindsley is now, hand less. (giggled) Tera,, well lets not start on her. All my sisters are weak, Karen, to kind hearted, Comet, The strongest could not kill me, and Knives would just join with me. The other recruits...Or whats left. Couldn't dare even hope to become as strong as us, But you! Your naive belief in Family and loyalty? Ahh where couldn't you go wrong with that?"

I stared at her as she spoke, slowly lifting my legs waiting for the right moment. She pulled her knife back to speak some more. "Us? I am not like you!" I yelled quickly throwing my legs up and wrapping my calves around Versions neck.

"Wha?!"She asked in surprised.

Using the sudden surprised state of Versions, I forced my wrists free and pushed off the soft sand to flip us over and pin Versions. Sitting on her my legs slowly crushing her airflow.

I looked down at her with a smirk but that faded when she smiled wide and held her knife in her hand swinging back and forth.

I felt my skin as it ripped open, leaving yet another crimson trail from where it stung on my right temple to where I could see my cheek just missing my right eye.

I looked down at Versions my face twisted in horror and realization as I put a gloved hand to my bleeding face. I pulled back my hand and stared at the blood on my fingertips. It was such a quick movement I hadn't even registered it.
