"Look into my eyes," I whispered, and she did as I told her. I held her gaze making sure she was looking at me and only at me.
"Now what I'm about to do might hurt a little, but don't worry ok," I spoke still whispering. She nodded; that was when I knew I had her where I wanted her. Carefully I reached inside my clock and pulled out my dagger, while still making sure she held my gaze.

Suddenly she dropped my focus, but by then it was too late, for I had already plunged my knife into her chest.
Lily (that was her name) fell screaming to the floor in a pool of her own blood. It was such a shame, but then again she had seen too much. I knew Lilly was just a child, but if I didn't get rid of her, others would know my secrets, if I had let her go, I would have found her and killed her anyway, so either way she had to die. Lilly Edwards blood was quiet literally on my hands.

I looked down at Lily's lifeless body shaking my head, they always fall for it in the end, I had promised her a home a family if she got what I wanted, and of cause she did, they always do every single child I have used fell for my false promises of a better life and By now you would of realized I always kill then once I get what I need. I hired Lilly because she was an orphan just like the others, so it wouldn't exactly matter if they disappeared nobody would really care about one less orphan in the world. Anyway I hired her because I needed someone to get close to her certain person, who lets say needed to be taken care of. To my surprise Lilly got all the information I needed including a little extra, or example I knew exactly where they would be, at the exact time and the exact moment they would be alone, so I could do my job.

I walked out of the old abandoned warehouse leaving it and the body of the deceased Lilly Edwards behind as I slipped into the shadows of the night, maybe that was why they called me the shadow haunter, for with the slightest movement I could be lost within the darkness that haunted the world at night.
