~The Assassin's Tale~
The job was a riddiculously easy one. A lot easier than most of the assignments he had been getting lately...
For the last couple of months he had been given one difficult job after another. A few of them almost cost him his life. Of course, it never happened, but there were a few really close calls. Fortunately, he was better at this than anyone else so he always got out alive. Yet, despite the obvious danger, the Council had just kept on handing him these strange assignments. They were not even all that important. Just very, very difficult to complete. It was almost as if the Council had been testing him until now, making sure he was capable of dealing with any situation. And he was, of course, though the Councilors seemed to have a hard time grasping that fact. They just kept sending him out on one impossible assignment after another. It was almost as if they were preparing him for something big. Something really big.
Then, finally, the day came and the door had been unlocked and he had been called into the Council Chambers. He had been ready for it, more than ready, in fact, and he had held his head high as he walked through the dark halls. Soon enough he had been standing before the raised seats of the people who had enslaved him. He had waited impatiently as the old men went through all of their formal nonsense, anticipation building inside of him.
...and now this? All of that ceremony just to send him up to the surface to abduct a child? A child! Of the child was a Prince, but that hardly mattered. These surfacers probably wouldn’t even notice that the boy was missing until they were long gone. It was so easy it was insulting.
The cloaked man looked up at the big castle and sighed, his red eyes narrowing slightly. No matter how much he thought this was beneath him, he had to do it. It was the King’s orders, after all... and Orion could do nothing but obey.
