1D Meets the Assassin

The Confession-Zayn

I woke up to my phone ringing. I answered it.

"ZAYN! COME TO MY PLACE SO WE CAN EAT!!!" Niall yelled.

"Alright!" I muttered, hanging up on him.

I got up and got dressed. I lit a cigarette. Why could I not quit? I got in my car and headed for his place. When I got there, I opened the door and let myself in. Katara was in a corner, trailing her finger across something on her arm. Niall was begging her to go ahead and cook. She looked at me and gasped. She tried to back up, but her way was blocked by the wall.

"What?" I asked, coming within 5 feet of her. She stepped to where she was 1 foot away, turned to where her back was to me, and ran towards the wall. I thought she would run into it, but she ran up it, back-flipped over me, and sprinted towards the kitchen.

"Wonder what that was about." Niall muttered.

"I don't know." I said back.

"Can you come back in here?" He called.

She slowly walked out. She sent a terrified look my way. "Y-yea?" She asked, her voice barely a whisper.

"What's wrong? Why did you run off like that?" I asked.

She pointed at the cigarette in my mouth. "F-f-fire."

"You're scared of fire?" Niall asked, walking over to her.

"Y-yea."

"Why?" I asked.

"I-i-i'd rather n-not say." She stuttered.

She stared out into space for a minute, then she fell to her knees. She was whimpering and trembling. Niall went over to her and patted her back. She pushed him away. The door opened, but this time she didn't even look up. Harry and Louis walked in. They walked over to Niall and Katara.

"What's wrong?" Louis asked Katara.

"Zayne scared the crap out of her." Niall answered.

"How?"

"Apparantly something made her afraid of fire, and when he walked in the room with a cigarette in his mouth..." Niall trailed off.

"Oh." Louis said.

We all looked at her. I noticed several marks on her arm. One was two lines with swirls on the ends of each of them on her forearm just below her wrist, it looked strangley familiar. It looked like a tattoo. Most of them looked like burn marks. Others looked like she had knife or sword of somekind cuts. They didn't seem like they were accidents. She looked up at us with tear-filled eyes.

"Y-y-you g-guys hafe to kill me now." She whispered, handing Niall a knife. "Just make it quick please."

"Why would we kill you?" He asked.

"I-i-i b-broke my p-promise. I-i said I wouldn't l-leafe your sight, a-and I did."

"We are not going to kill you." Liam said.

When did he get here? Katara jumped up, and hugged him.

"Thank you." She whispered.

She grabbed his hand and dragged him into the kitchen. I followed them after putting out the cigarette. She was already cooking up a storm when I walked in.

"She said she couldn't leave our sight, so she grabbed the merciful one. At least, that's what she told me." Liam explained.

I could hear Niall complaining about wanting food. I smirked, he was such a pig! Harry and Louis were fighting over the T.V. again. It would be messy when we walked in again. 30 minutes later, there was alot of food on the table. It was also set for breakfast. There were only 5 plates though. She yelled for the others. Niall was the first in. Liam stared at his plate in horror. I looked over, and realized why. There was a spoon by his plate. I walked over to Katara.
