Kira felt her pocket vibrate from her phone ringing. She answers it without looking at the number. "What is it?" "Hi there I have an assignment for you. Meet me at the Sakura Restraunt." She hangs up knowing that the person on the other line knows that she will be there. She gets up from the bench that she was sitting on in the park. This was supposed to be one the greatest parks in New York. Right now the restraunt was just a few blocks away. I got up and made my way to the restraunt. When I stepped inside a bodyguard escorted me to a dark corner of the restraunt to see his boss. This fool knew of me because he when he saw me he stiffened and the fear in his eyes was noticable. As he walked me to the booth he kept glancing at me and I could see his fear. It pratically rolled off of him in waves. I sat down in front of what most peole considered the most dangerous man alive. Dante Gonzalez. One of the biggest and dirtiest crime lords in Colombia and the USA. I sat down infront of this overweight man who smelled of marijuana and glowered at him.

Kira's POV

"Here's your assignment along with half of your payment and the other half when you have finished. I nod my head and I get up to leave. I notice that one of the bodyguards is undressing me with his eyes. 'Heh this dumbass must me new.' I smirk and in a blink of an eye I had a 6 inch blade pressed in between his rib bones. "I suggest you do not try that again if you value your life." "Yes ma'am" He said quaking with fear. "Good." I removed my blade and left the restraunt. I packed what I needed for this assignment. I looked at the the folder and saw that my new mark was going to be in a forest not that far from here. It would take at least an hour to get there. I looked at the folder again. According to this my mark was a 5 year old girl. I was supposed to discreetly kill her becuase her dad had not yet paid his debt to Dante. This was supposed to be a message to the man. The file said that she was going to be with her parents in a lodge in a secluded forest. 'Well that makes my job a hell of a lot easier.' I found the lodge and set myself and my sniper rifle in a tree. Now I had to play the waiting game. Finally their car pulled up and they made their way into the cabin. I waited until they were all together to strike so what other time than dinner time. I had a perfect view of their dinner table up in the tree so when they made their way there I got ready. I readjusted my ricfle and looked into the scope. I aimed at her heart for there have been known cases that someone will get shot in the head and still survive. I wasn't going to take that chance. I was about to pull the trigger when she turned around. She didn't see me but I saw her. She had blonde hair and the biggest and bluest eyes I had ever seen. They showed how happy she was. How innocent this little girl who barely started life truly was. For once I found myself struggling to pull the trigger. I shook my head to clear it out. 'Damnit I'm a feared assassin. I shouldn't be hesitating to kill a stupid kid! Granted I've never killed a kid though.' She then squeled as her dad gave her a hug and twirled her in the air.

-Flashback-

A young Kira was lifted and spun around by her father. Her happiness was reflected in her violet eyes. "Again daddy again!!" "You got it my little princess." She laughed as her father played airplane with her. She looked at the 36 year old man with his black hair and violet eyes which held so much love for his only child. She looked at him with as much love as 5 year old could have. "I love you daddy!" " I love you too Kira."

-End Flashback-

For once I felt myself tear up. I knew what it was like to have someone so precious taken away from you. I had been put through hell. I wasn't going to do that to this family especially for something so trivial as repaying money. I sighed and gathere up my stuff. I also wrote a note for these people. Once they fell asleep I snuck in and left the note there along with something else. I took off and drove to Maine just to have the file and Dante's payment, that he gave me, shipped to him. I watched as they took it and left.

The marks (the father's pov)

I woke up and looked at the alarm clock. I was shocked to find a wad of cash right next it when I knew that my wife and I didn't leave that there. I picked it up and there was a note underneath it:

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Fillizola,

Here is the amount of money that you owe Dante. I was supposed to give you a different kind of message the type that involved in killing your daughter. Don't worry she's safe but I warn you Dante is serious and he wants his money back, hence the wad of cash that you found. Dante hired me to kill your daughter. If I find out that YOU told Dante that I let her live, I will come back. DO NOT MAKE ME REGRET MY DECISION. DO NOT ASK OR CONFRONT DANTE ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I WILL FIND OUT AND I WILL DEAL WITH YOU. When you go to pay Dante, which you better do or else you can say good-bye to Trisha, just give him the money and say that you had been saving it in order to pay him back. There's a little extra for interest. DON'T BORROW ANYMORE MONEY FROM HIM OR YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF IN THIS SITUATION AGAIN ONLY THAT TIME I WILL NOT BE THERE TO SAVE YOUR SORRY ASS.

-Assassin

P.S Burn this message as soon as you finish reading it.

I was shocked. I turned to my wife and woke her up. She read the letter and started crying and saying things like how we were so lucky to have Trisha spared. Trisha came running in and I hid the letter. We hugged like there was no tomorrow and told her that we loved her over and over again. Whoever this assassin was I thank him or her for letting my daughter live.

2 Days later with Kira (somewhere in Michigan)

My phone vibrated. This was my private line and only one person had this number. " What?" I answered. "Shadow what did you do?!" Shadow was my codename. No one knew who my real name was. Some did but they are all dead. "Explain." "Dante is pissed!! He's put a hit on you for a very hefty reward." I knew this would happened. "Thanks for the warning. Get rid of anything and everything that might have even the slightest connection to me. Including this number. Bye Gizmo." I walked to a nearby lake abd threw the phone in. I got in a car and drove to Idaho. When I finally got there I bought hair dye and dyed my once black hair was now blonde. I bought a ticket for Port Angeles, Washington and paid in cash. This way there would be a little bit more of challenge in tracking me. I got on the plane and contemplated why I was going to Washington. Well my mom, when she used to be alive, that she was Quileute and she came from an idian reservation called La Push. That's where I was headed. After the flight I would take a car all the way into La Push and pass through Forks. I remeber my mom mentioning someone named Billy Black. Oh well.

With Dante 2 days ago

I recieved a letter and took out the contents. There was no return address so I'm guessing it was from Shadow. In it was the assignment I gave the to Shadow and the money. 'That bitch!! She chickened out!!' "Guards!" "Yes sir." "Tell them there's a hit out for an assassin called Shadow. Two and a half million for her capture and proof of death. Go now!!" "Yes sir!" My guards left. 'You will regret messing with me Shadow!'
