If you were to describe an Assassin in one word, what would it be? Most people would say, heartless. But if you think about it carefully, even if they're taking lives, assassins have the strongest hearts. People can't stand the feeling if knowing they have a person's blood in their hands. Most can't even stand the feeling of even accidentally hurting an animal. In the world of assassins, they keep calm even with the blood of hundreds on their hands, and to add to that it's the blood of people.
If you walk down on the 4th Street in the abandoned city of Moscow, Russia, you will see the only building that is still standing. Step inside and you might see someone by the name of Lilith. However, there is a price to pay once you have stepped into that place. You will not have time to escape once she has set her eyes on you. She will not show you any mercy, emotion or pity. You will be killed mercilessly and for your family, it will be a Disaster. For Lillith it will just another person's blood that will taint her hand.
9th June 2008, Moscow City lock down,
Day 1.
News about the rebellion against communism was spreading like wildfire. There were many protests held. People were ranting and everyday they would be riling crowds and causing havoc in Moscow City. The elders knew they were just asking for trouble. But nothing could discourage the young generation. They didn't understand the consequences. All they thought about was their unruly living condition. There was no time to think about how much worse things could get if the government were to counter react.
When the government had sensed the rebellion that was building up in the city, the lock down was announced. Troops of soldiers were sent to raid the city, armed and ready to kill anyone that had attempted to escape. Many tried to flee before the troops arrived. While a handful succeeded ,most did not and that night alone, there were 700 deaths.
They performed the first weekly inspection, and that day there were, 1500 deaths. All homes that contained any sort of material that could be used for protests, were burned to ashes. All the people that carried megaphones, picket signs, banners and such, were shot immediately.
Senior citizens, adults, adolescents and children were all treated the same, like mere bugs.
15th June, 2008. Moscow City lock down,
Day 7.
Within the week there were 50 more deaths. Nobody had dared to step out of their homes. But some that were desperately in need of supplies were forced to leave their houses after curfew. There was not talk about anyone that had returned home safely, because if any soldiers found out, anyone and everyone related to the survivor would surely be killed.
The second weekly inspection was carried out. There were 300 more deaths. This lock down was what the citizens of the Moscow City called plague.
15th July, 2008. Moscow City lock down,
