Chapter 1

I shove my hands in my pockets, shivering as the cold wind whips my hair around my face. Reminding myself that my apartment is only half a block away, I push through the wind, letting the moonlight guide me.

I let out a breath of relief when I reach my apartment. Quickly, I run up the stairs, turning the key and pushing the door open, stepping into the room and slamming the door behind me.

"Kara, you home?" I call, placing my bag on the coffee table next to the door.

"In the kitchen" A small female voice calls back.

I remove my sneakers, placing them on the mat near the table and walk through the archway that leads to the kitchen.

My roomate, Kara, sits at the table, biting her pencil as she reads from her textbook.

"Long day?" She asks, wiping black hair out of her eyes as she looks up at me.

"Work stinks" I mutter, pulling my light brown hair out of a bun and letting my shoulder length hair fall into waves.

"Harth called, he said to meet him in the empty lot at five" She says, looking back down at the textbook.

"Tell him I'm tired" I mutter, exiting the room and entering the living room, collapsing on the couch.

"He says it's mandatory" Kara responds, appearing in the doorway.

I sigh, glancing at the clock below the T.V. The digital numbers read 4pm.

"I'll go" I murmur, flipping on the T.V. "Do you know what he wants now?"

"We have a new target" Kara's voice is distant as she re-enters the kitchen.

"Great" I say, rolling my eyes.

At quarter to five, I step out of Kara's car, slamming the door behind me and walking towards the middle of the lot. Kara's footsteps sounds behind me, quickly catching up to me. A man stands in the middle of the lot, his back facing us.

"You're early" He says as we approach him, not turning to face us.

"Better early than late" Kara responds, earning a nod.

"Glad you made it, this mission is very important. I will need both of you on it" He turns around to face us and I wince at the scar on the left side of his face, still not used to it. "Problem?" His dark eyes turn to look at me and I shake my head quickly.

"No, sir" I respond.

"Everytime you wince. I tell the story. You need it sunken into your brain so you understand why you take the risks that you do" His voice is stern and we both nod.

"Sir, there's n-" Kara starts.

"Don't" He turns towards Kara. "Contractors like you gave me this scar. I fought like the little warrior I was suppose to be and he came out of nowhere and swiped my face with a single silver dagger, causing me to lose sight in my eye" He sighs. "and when my family saw what had been done, they abandoned me in fear that my attacker would attack them too. Do you know what it's like to see your daughter for the last time? The last memory of her being her fear of you?" He asks, his voice lowering in both anger and sadness.

We shake our head.

"But good news" His mood quickly changes, not suprising us. "I found him! I found the one who ruined my life, my future" He pauses. "and I want you two to kill him" he holds a picture out and I grab it.

A man in a white mask stares back at me in the photo. A purple lightening bolt runs over his left eye which is glowing red in the photo.

"A contractor" I whisper and Kara peers over my shoulder, examining the photo.

"Do you know his actual identity?" Kara looks at Harth who shakes his head.

"Not quite yet. He is known as the Black Reaper. His messier code is BK-201" He sighs. "That's all I know.

I look back down on the photo.

"His abilities?"

"He can change matter on a molecular level" Harth answers.

"So...electricity and crap?" Kara asks.

"Basically... He is very fast and stronger than you may think. Be careful, he easily outsmarts people"

"When do we start?" I ask, looking up.

"Tonight" He responds.

I lay on the rooftop, biting into a granola bar. Kara sits beside me, watching the sky.

"What exactly are we looking for?" I ask and Kara looks down at me, sighing.

"Activity on BK-201's star" She responds.

"Oh" I finish my granola bar, shoving the wrapper into my bag.

"There it is!" She yells before covering her mouth.

"There's what?"

"His star... it's showing activity"

"That's cool, now how do we find him?" I ask and she sighs.

"I guess I should have thought this over" She mutters.

"Put your masks on" Harth's voice sounds through the earpiece I am wearing and I grab my bag, digging out my mask and placing it on my face.

My mask is a simple white mask with black diamonds that cross over the eye-holes. Black eyesbrows are painted on and black lines where my eyes are. It covers half my face and if I'm not in a hurry, I paint my lips black to add to the mystery.

Kara grabs the bag from me, taking her full face mask out that is covered in silver swirls. I press the button down on my earpiece.

"Masks on, what's next?" I ask.

"Sighting of the Reaper on Hirly Street, one mile south of your location" His voice sounds in response.

"What direction is he heading?" Kara asks into her own earpiece.

"North"

"What exactly is he doing?" I ask.

"Walking through alleyways... seems to have a target. Stay on the rooftop. When you catch sighting of him, split" He directs.

"Copy" Kara responds.

I dig into my bag, placing throwing knifes in my belt and tossing Kara her swords. She catches them, placing them in the case on her back for easy access. I pull on my black coat and pull my brown hair back into a loose ponytail.

"Ready?" I look over at Kara and she nods.

We both stand on opposite sides of the rooftop, glancing into the alleyways below us. We stay like this for about five minutes.

"Sighting of the Reaper heading North, walking slowly, Parker follow him along the rooftop, I'll climb down and walk behind him." Kara's voice sounds in the earpiece and I nod, taking off into a sprint to the edge of the rooftop.

Once at the edge, I push myself off the ground, lunging into the air. For a moment I am airbourne before I roll onto the roftop ten feet below and jog across it. Once at the edge of the rooftop, I get into a crouching position.

A black trench coat and white mask flashes into alley below me and I follow him along the roof. He pauses at the end of the alley and I crouch again, peering over the rooftop.

"Target has stopped moving" Kara whispers into the earpiece.

I stay silent, watching him, twenty feet below me. A cat meowing makes me jump and I turn my head to face a black cat. It hisses at me and I place my finger over my lips, hushing it.

When it meows again I glare at it behind my mask before looking back down into the alley to find it empty.

"Target has disapeared, any sightings Parker?" Kara's voice sounds and I sigh, pressing down on the earpiece.

"No sightings" I respond.

"Abort mission" Harth's voice sounds and I stand up, spinning around.

I jump when I spot the Reaper ten feet away from me on the rooftop.

"Parker, don't move, sighting of the reaper near you... do you respond?" Harth asks.

I reach my finger up, pressing the back-up button before quickly dodging a dagger.

I reach into my belt, grabbing a throwing knife and whipping it in his direction before charging at him. He catches the knife as I sweep his legs out from under him, causing him to fall onto his back.

"Almost there, hold him off" Kara's voice sounds as I grab another knife, bending down to stab it into him. His gloved hand grips my wrist as the knife is inches from his eye.

I yelp as he flips me onto my back, leaning on me. His eyes begin to turn red behind his mask and I quickly slide out from under him.

Once we are both in standing position, circling each other, Kara finally appears behind him, drawing her swords. I she swipes one at his back and he yells out in suprise, spinning around and knocking the sword from her hands, throwing her to the ground.

His hands wrap around her throat and I run towards him as a blue aura becomes visible around his body.

Kara cries out before I tackle him off of her, digging one of my knifes into his stomach. He falls limp for a moment and I get off him, running over to Kara who lays unconsious. I check her pulse, letting out a sigh of relief as I hear her steady heartbeat.

Fingers wrap around my neck, pulling me up and slamming me against a billboard ontop of the rooftop. I scratch at the fingers around my neck, coming face to face with the Reaper.

"Why did you follow me?" He asks, his voice threatening.

"Why should I tell you" I hiss at him and his grip tightens.

"Because I'll kill you if you don't" He responds.

"Hei, that's enough, let her go, we need to go now" A male voice sounds from behind us.

"One moment Mao, I'm going to finish this" The Reaper responds.

"Can we do this another time, you are needed at the moment"

"Shut up" Hei hisses. While he's distracted, I take advntage of the moment and knee him where the sun don't shine. He curses, doubling over in pain and releasing me.

I sprint across the rooftop, grabbing Kara's unconsious body and jumping into the alley below. My feet tingle from the impact of the fall but I quickly recover, throwing Kara over my shoulder and running. A car waits outside the alleyway and I open the door, throwing Kara in.

A dagger whips by my ear, digging into the roof of the car and I dive into it, slamming the door. The driver accelerates quickly, and I quickly reconize him as Harth.

"Not as easy as you thought?" He asks, glancing into the rearview mirror and I hiss in pain, ripping my jacket off.

"You sent us on a suicide mission" I mutter.

"Because I knew you could escape"

"Great, now are we done with him?"

"No, I gave you a mission and you need to complete it" His voice is stern.

"You want me dead, don't you?"

"Think of it as trainging. Speaking of training... it's tomorrow at 4... don't be late..."

I don't bother arguing. Laying my head against the cool glass of the window, I replay tonights events, thinking of ways it could have gone better and preparing my mind for our next encounter.

Trust me. Next time we meet. The Reaper will die.
