It was now or never, and it couldn't be never. I drew my blade, the poison a purple hue, gleaming under the twin moons. I took a deep breath, and jumped, silently falling through the smooth night air. The only thing keeping me from my death was a thin silver rope.
Brynjolf -
Crack, the force of her feet landing on his shoulders broke his collar bone, but it didn't kill him, so she twisted his head until his neck snapped, and the light left his eyes.
I watched as the rope went tight, and then launched her into the air, she had broken the man's neck within half a second, but to me, it felt like an hour. She landed on the ledge next to me, steadying herself, then looked over and flashed me a wicked grin. Then she jumped again, but this time she jumped head first, I glanced over at kip, but he didn't seem surprised.
I looked back at Azure, and I saw her cloak fly off, revealing her mother's gift. She grabbed her target, and the rope launched them into the air, I saw Kip, lunge forward cutting the rope, now Azure had a silver rope dangling off her waist, if she didn't use her gift, she would die. Azure unfurled her dark ebony wings, looking like an angel of death.
She flapped he wings, bringing her and her target higher into the air, she dropped her target, but he grabbed onto the rope hanging off her. She smiled, she had been hoping for a challenge.
She tucked her wings in and dived, bringing her and her target very close to the ground, he hit the ground, letting go of the rope, his eyes rolled back in his head. She flew back over to us, but instead of stopping she flew over us, grabbing on to our leather harnesses that she made so she could hold on to us easier. She laughed as we rushed through the air, back to headquarters.

When the Dark Brotherhood and the Thieves Guild decided to join forces, I have to admit I was surprised. Astrid always made it seem that she wanted to be in charge, and Mercer seems to not like to share. But now, with the Thieves Guild in shambles and the Dark Brother Hood without a listener, it also made sense. We were still the Dark Brother Hood, and The Thieves Guild was still the Thieves Guild.
When Thane Sidjur of Solitude got mixed up in the events of the Goldenglow mission, we were sent to steal his seal ring (along with the ten thousand gold he kept in his safe) and then assassinate his business partners. So far we had the ring, and had two out of three of the targets were killed. It was what I called a good night.
I wasn't a thief, but I wasn't innocent, when you kill for a living, your soul will never be pure. It wasn't like I was ever going to go to Sovngarde. For one thing, I'm a Dark Elf, also my mother is Azura. I am half Daedra, half elf. I was born to go to Oblivion. And when I did, my mother would claim me, probably have a section of her palace for me, and would give me a throne to sit on right next to her. I had no reason to want go to Sovngarde when I would be Daedric Royalty when I passed on. In fact, my mother promised me that someday she would let me visit oblivion and stay in her palace for however long I want. She said my first visit would be on my seventeenth birthday, in three weeks.
"Who's your next target lass?" Brynjolf asked, ever since we met, he had decided to call me lass, he knew it annoyed me, that's why he does it, but I still wish he would stop.
"His name's Keirn Ygnyr, the chief of a bandit clan, and will you stop calling me lass!"
"Kerin the Destroyer? He's supposed to be unbeatable. You sure you can take him lass?" He said, putting an emphasis on lass. I rolled my eyes.
"Well then he hasn't fought me!" I said smugly, "Let's go kill a bandit chief!"
The first few chapters of this are really short, but get larger around the time when I hit double digits in chapters. Just a disclaimer.
