Masked Assassin

2:

I pulled up in front of a small apartment and hopped off my motorcycle.

I unlocked the door to my apartment and threw my school bag aside. I took out my sweater and untied my checkered shirt from my waist. I put on a black muscle tank and tucked it in my black skinny jeans. I put on my long black cloak that reaches till the heels of my feet. The cloak had long sleeves and a hood. I wore my leather fingerless gloves and tied my blonde hair into a high ponytail.

I fixed my gun holder on my waist and put two guns there, hidden beneath the cloak. Then, I put one more small knife into each of my ankle boots. I opened one of the cabinet and took out a long box. I opened it slowly.

Inside was the most beautiful sword ever. It had flowers on it and my parents' initials were engraved on the handle : ' A+ J '. I was named after my mother. Sort of. Her name was Alayna and my father's name was Jeremiah.

This was the sword my father shoved at me before they died.

I gently picked it up, fighting to hold tears back. I put it behind my back.

I pulled open a drawer and picked a black mask. The mask covers my mouth and nose, but doesn't cover my light blue eyes. I put it on and looked into the mirror. I pulled on my hood and just nice, my left eye had the flame burning on it. The fire looked so real, but it doesn't hurt at all. I tucked loose strands of hair under the hood and grabbed my phone.

It showed 4pm on the screen and I knew that this was the time when werewolves go for hunting. I just had to find some rogues to kill. Rogues are always bad, evil, whatever you want to call it. No doubt in that. Yes, this means that I hunt for a living.

I pulled my mask higher and climbed out from a window, as right in front of it was a tree. I jumped onto the tree and looked for some rogues.

---

I jumped from tree to tree really quietly, waiting to hear something. Suddenly, there was a rustle beneath me. I stopped and peered down. My normal blue irises became a star as my eyesight became sharper. There, beneath me was two wolves, and from the looks of it they were rogues.

Jackpot.

I waited slowly for the perfect time to attack. I raised my right hand and gripped onto the handle of the sword tightly. I stood up on a thin branch and swiftly jumped down. I landed behind a brown wolf quietly and he didn't even realize I was there. My eyes went from the shape of a star to random swirly lines, and a flower in the center. I crept behind silently.

Before he knew it, I pulled out the sword and plunged it into his heart. His friend didn't even realize as he couldn't even make a sound before he died. I jumped back and hid behind a big tree as I saw the other rogue turn around and fear was definitely shown in his eyes. He looked as though he was about to howl for help. My eyes quickly changed to normal but with polka dots as my speed turned as fast as a vampire and werewolf combined. I quickly ran behind him and plunged it into his heart. He looked at me and recognition flickered across his eyes before he died.

I mouthed 'sorry' to their dead bodies while I carved a cursive capital letter 'A' on both their foreheads. This was to show that I killed them. I don't know how, but the Hunter Council always manages to find the bodies that we had killed and give us the money. The killing that I did would earn myself about two hundred and fifty dollars or more, since one of them is a little bigger than a normal rogue size.

And yes, my eyes changes when I'm in hunter mode. Star is for enhanced sight. Flower and swirly lines is for power. Polka dots is for speed and agility. And checkered is for sharp hearing.

I smiled and was just about to walk away when I heard something. A soft murmur. My eyes changed to blue checkered as I jumped up and flinged myself onto a big tree branch.
