A month with the Midnight Shadows

6-3

I found it hard to get out of bed this morning. I'm still aching from yesterday, and I'm hungry.
Why can't we have breakfast?!
I'm just gonna wear what I wore yesterday, since I didn't think to pack any other clothing items besides underwear. Well, onto the training ring.

Okay, there's a guy in here with blue hair and pale skin (what is with the pale skin here?) and he seems fairly lean. The sign says that his name is Скорый Поезд. I asked someone what that meant, and they said it meant "Fast Train". Man, what is up with these names?
Well, here I go!

I won! This guy was quick (even though he didn't actually attack me), but I guess I was quicker.
First, he tried to circle me, but I just did a leg sweep and knocked him on his butt. He got up and circled me again, this time from a distance. I just kinda sat down and waited, as if I knew what he was up to. And sure enough! He had given up on getting me to attack, so he just straight up came to me. I just got up and did a simple roundhouse kick and he was knocked unconscious. I checked the timer and the match had taken about 47 seconds. I thought these expert guys were supposed to be hard, I mean, what gives?
Harley just came up to me and said that I need to go to hut #18.
Okay, then. She just walked off without even telling me where to go. I guess I'll just walk around until I find it.

Found it! It's large, with the number 18 (in gold, I'm guessing) on top of it. The building itself looks like one of those university buildings I've seen online or in movies. The door is so shiny, I'm almost afraid to touch it, but I just did anyway.

Yep, I am almost for sure that this is a university. It looks like one from what I'm seeing. There's bookshelves everywhere and a few benches in a few spots. I see a stairway in the left corner of the room (I'm gonna say this room is a library). Ok, now I see a woman putting up some books. She's got red hair, a mean look, and a black-and-white plaid dress. Looking at her, I'd say she's about 35.
She saw me, and she says I'm here to learn about the Midnight Shadows (she said the name in Russian, but I still can't remember how to say it). She also says I'm gonna learn Russian, since I'm "so behind" or whatever.

The Midnight Shadows is an ancient assassin group founded in 1363 by Alexei Fedorov, a man with amazing skills.
He was married to a woman named Svitlana Fedorov, who had helped him establish what is today called the Midnight Shadows.
The name was selected in 1364 when he was selecting only the best people to become assassins. He had established some rules, and two of the main ones were that the target was to be killed before the moon was at the center of the sky, and that the target could never see or know who their assassin was. It was these rules that had helped his and his wife name their assassin group what it is today.
Svitlana had suggested starting a naming system for all assassins to help protect their identities. Alexei thought this was brilliant, so they named all their assassins according to their appearances and/or personality.

I thought I was gonna write more than this, but this lady, whose name was Wise Deer (she told me the Russian word for it, but she saw my confusion and told me the English translation), said I "need only write what I need only use" (ok, then). I guess there's gonna be a test. Ok, she says I have more stuff to write.
