RoderiaXErwin (Snk fanfic)

Ready

Roderia was left alone for the rest of the day and the upcoming days. She gotten her armor from Guyson, and tried it on at the armory so he can teak some problems with the steel. It had breastplates that were held together by leather straps. They were snug around her body so that when she walked, she was quiet. Guyson gave her a sheath for her blades and knives when she was on the job. Roderia gulped as she assembled her armor and went to her room. The metal was burned black, the leather was dyed black, so she would be completely hidden when roaming at night. Roderia was practicing her sword play at the royal training grounds, when she was summoned. It was dusk, the sun slowly slipping down the wall like an egg yolk. The sky darkened fairly quickly, giving Roderia the creeps.

"The king has summoned you." A guard said as he stood near Roderia. She wiped her sweat from her forehead and nodded. The guard gave her a wax circle that has been stamped on. The kings symbol. It had the horses and roses with the scouting legion symbol in the background. Roderia grunted as she slowly put the was circle on her bed and stripped off her clothing. She put clothes on that weren't dirty but not clean either on and made her way to the kings Throne Room, Wax circle in hand. The door were shut tight with two guards standing in front who looked like they would like to go home and curse the king underneath their breath. Roderia handed the circle of was to the guards and they nodded her in, pushing the doors for her to walk through. Her father sat upon the throne, looking down at her from above. Roderia bowed slightly to him and stared at him, waiting to get an order.

"I have an assignment for you." The king started. " There is a certain person who is making a ruckus, and needs to be...picked off. This person hides in various spots, so I Expect you to find him in two days." Roderia stood still as he ordered her to kill someone. "His name is unknown, but some call him the дилер. Which is Russian for Dealer. Others may call him Glide, specifically because he always glides out of tough situations easily." The king held an irritated look as he remembered something.

"Is there a place that you have a lead on?" Roderia asked.

"Bring me Dmitri." He said to a guard on the left and he scurried away. A couple minutes later, A man stepped from the doors. He had short black hair that was curling slightly. His eyes were a mocha brown and he held a thin smile.

"Your majesty," He knelled for her father and waited until the king grunted to stand.

"Take this young woman and tell her the lead you have on Glide." He dismissed then and Dmitri looked at Roderia. He made a hand motion to follow and turned around to the door. Roderia jogged down the steps and ran after Dmitri, who was fast walking out of the throne room. He led her to a meeting room that had huge tables and chairs. A couple of other soldiers were around a map, pointing at a certain spot.

"He has to be here though, since last time, this is where he was last spotted." One of them said. They all turned towards Dmitri and Roderia, and gave her the evil eye. 

"This is the new assassin that the king hired." Dmitri gestured towards Roderia and sat on one of the chairs. Roderia slowly creeped up to one of the other chairs and sat down. She glanced at the map they had and recognized the area. It was where she was fostered, since the Queen made her run away. A nice man took her as his daughter, and loved her and cared for her better then the king. 

"So where exactly do i have to go." Roderia asked as she slid the map closer to her. One of the girls that was arguing with the men came to her side and pointed to a house. 

"He was last seen inside this building. That is all we really have, but these idiots think that there is another place where he is hiding right now." Roderia glanced up at the men, not including Dmitri, and looked back down at the map. 

"I believe it would be best to start where he was last seen." She said. She heard the men sigh in annoyance. The girl smiled at Roderia then laughed at the guys. "When do i start the mission?"

"Now if possible, since its dark outside." Dmitri said. "I will accompany you, to teach you what to look for and where to go. Get your suit on, we leave in twenty minutes." Roderia got off her chair and made her way back to her room and put her metal suit on. She grabbed her blades and knives and stuck them in her belt and sheath. She heard Dmitri's deep voice call out to her. She quickly looked out the window and thought of Erwin. She hopes she will be able to see him soon.
