What would happen if an assassin got into the Sindrian palace? *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Yasmin perched outside on the balcony leading to an extravagant bedroom. As the silk white curtains blew with the cool night breeze, she leaned in and saw her target. There, lying in a large bed, was a purple haired man and next to him, a woman with pale skin and dark hair. King Sinbad and a woman he took to bed that night.

Yasmin remembered her orders from her lord, Prince Hakuryruu: "Find the target and kill them."
As quietly as she could, Yasmin stuck one foot off the balcony railing and placed it on the ground, then the other foot followed. She crouched down and crept towards the bed until she was right beside the sleeping couple. Yasmin stood up and drew her arms back, her geometric gold tassels with turquoise gems inside snaking around her, glinting in the moonlight, as she lifted her arms up, preparing to go in for the kill.
Until a kunai soared past her.
Whipping around, Yasmin saw a figure standing outside the bedroom door. She bit her lip. Since when did the door open? She didn't even hear a single thing. The figure stepped closer, revealing to be a man in robes with pale skin and freckles dotting his nose, grey eyes and white hair. His eyes were narrowed as he glared at Yasmin. "Just what are you doing to my king?" He spat.

Yasmin took a step back as the man stepped forward, drawing his kunai back. It turns out the short knife was attached to a wire that he wielded, wrapping around his arms. King Sinbad awoke. He yawned and sat up, rubbing his eyes. "Ja'far?" He mumbled. "What are you doing here?"
Seeing the opportunity, Yasmin leapt backwards and off the balcony, free-falling for a short moment before landing in a crouched position like a cat. An alarm rang through the palace and Yasmin spotted a torch lighting the outside corridor and she grabbed it, turning around and looking for the most populated area she could target.
Until she remembered her next order. "Make sure no one besides the target dies."
She gritted her teeth and turned and saw a weapons shed. Yasmin threw the torch and the shed caught fire, burning. Yasmin turned and ran, hearing the guards yell that there was a fire.
