If I say that snowstorms don't usually happen around here then I would be lying the biggest lie. There's been a snowstorm for about weeks. Outside is covered by mountains of snow. I want to say it's pretty-when it stops raging. 'Sheesh, winter here is obnoxious. It's like the pent up air that never got out.' I was dressed like a ball with all the layers upon layers on me and the coal heater is blasted to the max. I struggled to move and not roll around like a ball. In short, it's hot and suffocating. 'A child's body is naturally warmer than an adult's body. I don't need this many layers!' I felt like an onion with all the layers.

I looked out the window and watched as the snow kept falling like rain. 'It's blurry out there but looks nice.' I looked around to find Hilana and Avia still not back. They went to get some new sheets and snacks. 'I wanna go outside and watch it happen. Just like an idiot!' This child's body may be affecting my brain. That's a bad thing just so we're clear. I peeled off as many layers of clothes as I can which is a very hard task! Simply put I struggled. "Jenjang(1)!" I let that slip out but it was fine since no one was in the room. I peeled off three layers and that was the most I can get off. 'It's good enough now time to head out.'

I got off the chair and crawled over to the door then placed my ear next to it listening for any sounds. 'It's really quiet outside.' I jumped grabbing the handle and kicked open my door. I peeked out and saw no guards. 'Wow, they must be on break or something. No that wouldn't be right. I have never seen them away from their post before. I wonder what happened.' There was a mystery to be solved but I was too lazy for that. 'Must be running late. I have those times to and all those times got me nearly killed...Wonderful days...I have a love-hate relationship with my job.' Anyway, this was my chance. I quickly sneaked out of my room and outside was cold but I'm hot.

I wandered around still not used to my new place which is the Harmon(2 )Palace. 'This place is a lot more tone down on the gold but the designs make up for it.' I looked out the window to see a figure quite a while away. I headed towards the nearest door and jumped with all the strength, grabbing the handle and kicking the door open. The door opened up and the snow came in uninvited with the extra wind. The figure was gone and nowhere to be seen so I closed the door. 'Am I being paranoid or am I seeing things?' I questioned my mental state and turned around to see a person in a black cloak. I jumped pretty badly. 'How the freaking heck did I not notice him!' This person is not normal-well no one here is normal. It will be weirder if they were. 'Ok-this-I-I should know-there human ri-I-I-I I wanna grow up so bad right now.' I hate babies.

"Well ain't this a surprise. I take care of business and I come back to see he has another one. He's got a lot of free time that boy. Well, at least your a cutie. Now, aren't you?" I get the hint of a bad person here. Then my body loved doing its thing and kicked his leg. Why must you disobey me?! I'm starting to think this is not my body. "Quite a violent one aren't you. I wonder if it's genetics?" 'I doubt that it's more like my body and mind refuse to cooperate which leads to this. If it is genetics then I call bull! I call unfairness!' "Well, thanks for letting me in. I'll repay you some other time princess." The guy then left. 'Can I say this is the strangest thing I've encountered so far other than my father's disappearing sword.' This place is a whole bunch of mess wrapped in one with a bow on top.

I crawled around for a bit longer and hurried back before anyone noticed me missing. I quietly shut the door to my room and worked on well a lot of things. For one, my speech which was is working in progress and I still don't know how to read. The reading part is very painful. I looked out the window and outside looked almost like a thunderstorm. Geez, winter here is truly terrifying.

May 14 XXXX

I was in the pouring rain and eyeing my target. Today was supposed to be my day off but I had a sudden request and it's not like I got anything better to do or turn down the request for that matter. Yep, life is cruel, and the rent keeps being higher. I was mixed in with the crowd and made sure to blend myself in. I wore a jacket with shorts and I held up my black umbrella. I watched as my target leave the host club drunk. I quietly followed avoiding anyone around me. I just wanted to finish this job fast so I can go home. I watched as the target sat down near a shop. 'What a wasted drunk.' I walked up close to him and pat the back of his neck interesting the poison needle then quickly taking it out. The target looked up confused but I was already past him by that point.
