Mirabella's POV

      5 years ago...

"Knock knock" I heard someone say.

Where am I? How did I get here?
I heard the door open and close. "How much did he give her?"
The same person whispered sounding confused. "I'm u-up" I croaked out, my eyes fluttered open adjusting to the new light I was forced to be in.

I looked around the room, I was on a very nice bed with all white sheets and bed frame.

The North and South walls were black but had a white rug and couch that stood out. This was strange because the East and West walls were white.

The window on the East side had black curtains that were pulled back but there were clouds outside giving the room a dull look.

"W-where am I" I turned to face the unknown woman who was surprisingly beautiful, she had pale skin and hazel eyes with dark brown hair that went all the way to her mid back she was no more than 5"6.

"Medbay Assassins Academy " she said with a smile. I shot up and opened my eyes all the way.

"You were dropped off here by your former parents because they couldn't keep you anymore." She said her voice full of sympathy but her eyes were full of hate, not for me but for them.

I tried to think back to before I woke up maybe I could remember their faces.

"Don't, you probably won't ever remember what happened before you were brought here.

It's very normal but anyway I am Leah Willams, headmistress here,  I'm here to grade your test and make sure you settle in" a smile grew back on her face. "What do you mean t-test" I said more confused now.

"You'll take a pacer test to see exactly what skills you already have and what skills you don't. The test will determine what class you are in, from there you'll learn everything from different languages to how to kill someone for the next five years, kinda like a high school but for killing and gathering information. Other than that do you have any questions?"

She didn't even bat an eye when she spoke, almost as if she'd done this a million times...maybe she did. "Y-yes. I have t-two" I stopped to clear my throat.

"First, what happens if I say no? Second, What happens after I'm done with everything? Do I just go home...wherever that is" I whispered the last part. My head started hurting

"Ahh.. if you say no I'll kill you right here, can't let you leave knowing about this place." My eyes widened at her words.

" If you say yes you will compete and train to get to the top, every assassin has something they're good at, that determines your graduating rank.

There are 6 general ranks A,B,C,D,E, and S. A is hacking, B is torcher, C is blades or poisons, E is guns, and S is for the ones who can do it all.

Each class will only have 7 people graduate every year but the S class usually only has about two or three.

This means right now you're on year one along with 309 other students, only about 38 of you will make it to year 5. Last year only 22 students graduated. It's not a game it's a trial to find the best of the best.

There is no guarantee you will live even a few months here but if you do somehow make it to graduation big corporations like the CIA, MMA, SSI, and even mafias will bid to get personal assassins from us.

So with that information I just gave you.. are you in or out." Taking in everything she said, either way I might die and I probably won't see my parents again hell I don't even remember what they look like.

But I'll have to kill people I've never done that.... Maybe I can do it, it can't be that bad. I can make it into the top seven if I try hard enough 'what if you die?' 'You don't even remember your own name' 'you'll just fail.'

Before any more negative thoughts could get into my head- "Yes. I'm in, headmistress" I said with a smile.

"That's my girl!" She shouted happily.

"Okay so first I'll give you a partner to take the pacer test with. Most assassin work in a team of 2 or 3 just to make sure that assassinations and intel gathering are successful.
You're going to be paired with a girl a year older than you, you might get split up after or you might be together throughout your years here but come on let's go."

She started to walk towards the door but stopped and looked at me suggesting I follow. I got up and followed closely behind her.

When she opened the door there stood a girl that looked my age but she was so beautiful. She had tan skin, brown eyes, a sharp jawline, and black hair.

" There you are Elena, why didn't you knock? Nevermind ok so Mirabella, this is Elena, your partner she's 14 and also just got here today".

She's 14 so I must be 13...Mirabella sounds Italian, great I'm probably the only Italian with red hair. "Well let's go" the headmistress said to us knocking me out of my thoughts.

"yes ma'am" Elena and I said at the same time.

"Hi"
Elena said as we walked, before I could say it back she whispered "we're gonna be best friends and get through this together deal?" she looked at me smiling.

"Deal best friends forever" I said with a smile equally as big.

It grew silent, not an awkward one but a comfortable one, as we followed the headmistress down the nice hallway that seemed more like a big house rather than a school.
I couldn't help but smile again, well Mirabella I guess is our new life.
