Do you know what it's like to have thousands of people count on you without them even realizing it? To risk your life for people every day with not one thank you. As you probably noticed I didn't mention siblings and parents, that's because my family disappeared when I was younger, I was about 6 when it happened. I woke up one morning and everyone was gone. My mom, my dad, even my little brother. Surprisingly I didn't cry, I was just confused but, I knew they weren't dead. I have no idea what happened or where they are but I know that they are alive. One day I will find them but as of now, I'm a little busy saving the people of Rahasya. My name is April and I'm an assassin. I'm not your typical murder people for money kind of assassin. I help people who need it, whether it's being robbed, being held captive, or being devoured by something you can't explain. Rahasya is very strange city but I'll get into that later. Would you like to know how I became an assassin? Want to know my story?.
"I'm leaving now Shae, I'll be there in a few. Ok. Later." I hang up my phone and start walking to this club called Amnesia where my 16th birthday is being held, it's a club for teens. Honestly I'm not looking forward to the party. I never celebrate my birthday since I have no family or friends, I only have one friend and her name is Shaelee but, I call her Shae. She decided to throw me a party because its suppose to be my sweet 16. I just wanted to sit at home and watch movies on Netflix but, Shae was not having that. I love the girl we've been best friends since kindergarten but she gets on my nerves sometimes, especially when she has to get what she wants.
I turn into this dark alley between two buildings that's right across from Amnesia and two guys step in front of me. One is tall and slender but I can tell he has some muscle and the other is a little shorter and kind of husky I can see a hint of a tattoo under the short sleeve of his black t-shirt.
"Aye girl where you think you goin?" the taller one said. I can tell he was drunk because the smell of alcohol slapped me in the face as he spoke. He stumbled over to me and tried to put his hand on my arm and I jerked back and ran into the other guy, he was drunk as well he also smelled like cigarettes. I scrunched up my face and nearly scream as he wrapped his arms around me.
"Let go of me you smell like a liquor store exploded!" I yelled as I tried to wiggle out of his arms. He wouldn't let me go so I stomped on his foot and swung my head back and smirked as I heard a satisfying crunch. He howled in pain and let me go as he held is now bleeding nose.
"You stupid little brat!" I heard the taller one scream as he lunged at me. I ducked away and he stumbled into the building. He lunged at me again with his fist drawn back. I leaned back as his fist almost connected with my face I then grabbed his arm and twisted it back to where his fist was between his shoulder blades. I pinned him against the wall and turned around because I heard a rustle and saw his friend running towards us. I kick my foot up and kicked him right in the chest, knocking the breath out of him. I smile then realize I'm still holding the other guy. I look at him then lean in towards his ear and whisper "I could easily dislocate your shoulder if I wanted to..."
"No no no no please don't please don't!" he pleads interrupting me. I pull his arm harder and smirk as I hear him groan in pain. "Don't interrupt me! Now, as I was saying I could easily dislocate your shoulder but I won't because today is my 16th birthday so you better thank your lucky stars and I am not a brat by the way." I tell him calmly then pull him off the wall and push him towards his friend and laugh as I watch them run away.
"You sure know how to fight for such a small young lady." a strange deep voice said from behind making me scream. I turn around slowly trying to catch my breath from the utter shock I just received and see a man standing there. He's quite tall, he looks about 6'7 and he has caramel skin covered in tattoos. He's wearing a tight white t-shirt and black skinny jeans with converse. If you ask me he's pretty hot.
