I never got caught and I never missed the target. 

That's why everyone hired me. I didn't care who I killed, as long as I got money for it. It was the only way for me to survive. 

No one would suspect me either, after all who would expect a sixteen year old girl to be a murderer.

Since I can remember, which isn't long, I was raised, trained and used by the  organization called Hydra, named after some Greek creature or something. 

I escaped them but I can't escape my past.

Now I'm an assassin for hire. I've been trained to kill without thinking but a tiny part of me denies that. Sometimes I'll only injure people, the good people, to put them under the radar while their allies wiped out the threat.

People call me the Huntress. Maybe people wonder why I keep being hired even when I didn't kill every person I was assigned and paid to. The reason is because I never miss and I'm stealthier than a ghost. 

I've never been caught and even if I was caught I would never be forced to talk. My training was too severe to allow for a mistake such as that. I guess people thought I was better to have as an ally or accomplice than an enemy.

I thought I'd always stay an assassin, stay a double agent like this. I was wrong. Today was the day that would change everything.
