"Wake up" a gruff voice said.

I looked up.

A guard wearing chrome and black stared at me.

When my eyes met his they flashed black.

I got up and he dragged me to a training room.

The man from yesterday was their, so was Maddie.

"Axel!" she said running towards me.

We embraced.

"Your suits Mr and Mrs Cunningham.

"What." I said.

" They never told you did they" he said.

"Your siblings. That's why your parents don't have powers. Your adopted" he said.

I looked at Maddie.

The only sign of resemblance was her face. Her hair was still white and mine was black.

He hit a button which opened up a door to the suits.

My suit was black and chrome with a symbol in the middle.( see above on the right)

Maddie's suit was chrome and grey with a symbol in the middle.( see above on the left.)

"Wow" I said.

"You're Assassins." he said.

"The people who came and caught us weren't assassins. " I pointed out.

"They were poor and lonely people living on the streets. We did them a favor. We fed them 5 star meals and gave them suits." he said.

"Oh" I said.

A guard came telling us to train.

Professor trudged off, and I went to train.

I chose my weapon. Dual Swords. Nice.Maddie chose a naginata.

"What do you think of being villains" she chirped.

I looked at her seriously.

"We have to run away." I said glaring at her.

Her eyes widened. 

"Okay" she said thinking it through.

"Take your weapons and suit. Tomorrow we leave." I said.

I strudded towards my room, but stopped when I heard voices.

"The phoenix," they said. If we take his blood we can have his power. Then we'll just kill the girl."he said.

The next voice sounded like professor. " Why would we do that." he said."We must be nice and when the moment comes we will strike." he said.

"No, me must do it know while he's not powerful." he said sternly.

"You are stubborn. You always have been." Professor said.

I heard a knife being pulled out of it's sheath and somebody being sliced.

I bolted towards  my room and closed the door gently.

I heard the knife clatter to the floor. Followed by a body thumping down to the floor.

I ran to the sink and put water on my face. The door knob was turning and I jumped on my bed, looking at the ceiling.

"Mr Cunningham." he said.

"Your sister is still training" he said.

I still had my suit on and my swords were on the ground.   " I know but using my powers makes me feel like I'm going to pass out."

"Ok" he said closing the door gently.

"I know you know" he said looking at me meanly. 

It was like he never even left and he came back wearing an assassins suit but with a giant purple stripe going over his chest and instead of a hood he had a black face mask with a hint of silver that went over one of his eyes.

He smiled.

I backed away. He vibrated his hand and I had watched enough flash to know how this goes.

I backed away and grabbed my swords. He sped towards me in front of my face.

I fell backwards. 

"You  think your the holy grail. We took you're father Axel, he was the original. You are a hail mary, a last chance saloon,the eleventh hour." he said sternly.

His voice was raspy. I held out my sword threateningly.He smacked it to the floor.

My eyes burned again.

He grabbed me choking me .

My eyes were now flickering grey and white.

I was dropped to the floor.

Professor was on the ground.

Please don't be dead please don't be dead I thought.

I checked his pulse.

It's not beating!
