A.N. This is going to fluctuate between bloody and gory stuff to romantic mushy and gushy stuff. More towards romantic, but there will be a fair share of gory stuff in here (depending on the mood).

A quiet night.
No moon.
The perfect night for murder.
The assassin carefully moved through the trees, going towards the spot where they knew their target would be located.
'So predictable!' The murderer stopped a few feet away from the spot, observing how many men the person had with them.
The assassin smiled as he remembered the note that was delivered to him.
'Bloody Blossom,
There is a man that is very dangerous to the world and especially the lives of the village. He knows things that could prove to be the demise of everyone. I beg you, please kill him. He will be in the clearing of the woods at exactly midnight. Enclosed is a handsome sum and a picture of what the man looks like.
Signed,
X"
Typical. No one ever signed the notes, and as long as the job was accomplished, they were never heard of again. Of course, the notes were always typed, and if she accomplished the job right the first time, she could get a bonus from her payer. She never messed up.
The assassin smiled, recalling the picture that had been sent with the note: a fat, ugly bad guy. Again, how typical!
She surveyed the man's area. 'Nope. No one else which means that he's alone. Perfect.' Moving in slowly, Bloody Blossom drew a knife, slowly drawing closer. The man had no idea what kind of danger was coming towards him.

"Poor bastard. Didn't see that his end was drawing near." She murmured, shaking her head. "Sorry, but you had to go."
Drawing the knife against the ground, wiping the blood away so as not to mess up her art work, the blade was again put against the man's chest, and the Bloody Blossom began carving….

The next morning, the murder was all over the news. News reporters all over the world were broadcasting the untimely death of the business man, whose image was well loved by family and his friends.
"Looks like the Bloody Blossom strikes again!" one announced. "You definitely know that because of the cherry blossom over his heart. What workmanship! It's flawless beauty is astounding to observe, yet it sickens me because of how gruesome it is. Ironic, eh? A 'cherry' blossom…how fitting!"
The television flicked off, and the viewer smiled. "Perfect."
