No One Can Help You

CH3: Blood On My Hands

I'm glad that school is over. Now I can take a nap and eat as much food as I can. I fall on my bed in relief.

Then I hear a knock on my door, I groan knowing that it must be Travis wanting something. Probably one of the games I have.

"Big sis?" Even though he's 9 he still calls me that. I try to keep him as innocent as I can. He's like my own kid since I kinda raised him on my own.

"What is it Travis? Do you need another game to play?" I ask him. He shakes his head no. Then what does he want?

"I can't sleep." Usually he takes naps when he gets home from school. I sigh and get up from my bed. Goodbye bed, I'll miss you!!

I follow him to his room which is next to mine. He lays down while I tuck him in.

"So, what shall I do? Bedtime story? Lullaby? Any ideas Travis?" He thinks about it and says he wants me to sing for him. I'm not that good at singing but everyone seems to think so.

"Fine but on one condition. You have to eat your vegetables for dinner,"

"But-"

"At least try to eat one even if it is corn." He doesn't like to eat his vegetables. I can see why. Like for me, when I was a kid I always wanted to eat a tomato but I guess I grown to dislike them.

"Okay, I'll try. Only for you." I smile softly, sometimes I wonder what life would be like if our parents were still alive.

"Well what do you want me to sing then?"

"Uh..the one you always sing." I gave him a confused look.

"I always hear you singing it." Oh now I know what's he talking about. Actually its just my chanting that I do. He knows that I do this but doesn't understand it, so he doesn't bother me about it.

I was about to start when my phone started ringing, "Sorry Travis I have to take this." He pouted and I giggled of his silliness.

"Hello?"

"You have another one. Do it immediately."

"What? Now? I'm trying to spend time with my little brother."

"Just do it. You'll get paid extra if you do it in person. Let me know when its done."

I sighed and agreed to the mission, I kinda kill people for a job. It's just in case if our grandparents die and can't support us anymore. When my boss says in person he means like I go to their house. Usually I use a sniper rifle so use throwing knives.

"I'm sorry Travis but the big mean boss wants me to do another job. I'll see you later." I patted his head and he frowned, making me feel guilty.

"Don't fret Travis, I'll be back. How about if I cast a protective spell?" He got excited wanting to see my magic.

"Yeah! Yes please!" He plead.

"Alright alright just settle down. Just relax." He calmed down but I could see the excitement in his eyes.

I started saying the chant. Black, red, green swirls going around him while he just looked shocked and amazed.

"There! Now go to sleep, if I get back in time I'll make breakfast for you." He gets comfortable and lays back. I kissed his forehead and said goodnight. And then left the house.

The victim is in another town not very far from here so this should be fun. I hear its a dangerous town to be in but safe at the same time. I think they mean that its dangerous at night, well of course its dangerous at night!

But it won't be dangerous for me. I know how to handle myself. I guess I'll use my trusty old knife. I'll make their death a slow painful and messy one. Just for the hell of it.

Lets hope this mission goes smoothly. Time to get blood on my hands.
