She was just like him. Well, maybe he had led a better life than hers. She had led a cold life. She herself was cold, almost emotionless. The only emotion she really felt was anger. Her parents had died when she was only a baby…much like Rider. The only difference was that her parents had been killed by M16, and his killed by Scorpia. When her parents died, she was in her house in Australia with a nanny. A member from Scorpia took her away and gave the nanny responsibility to look after the house. An unusually kind act by the organization.
By the by, she grew up to be very beautiful. With thick, luxuriant black hair with emerald green eyes, ivory skin, she really was a beauty. Too bad she didn't realize, too bad that she would crop her hair with kitchen scissors just above her chin. Many males found her so attractive and she would get angry when the wolf-whistled or when they tried to touch her or chat her up. They would obviously get injured in ten seconds…max.
How she would injure them in just seconds? Well, her job qualifications were rather…interesting. You may wonder, why am I talking about her as if she's dead? Well, she is dead…kind of, in a sense where she doesn't…never mind, you'll find out.
Like Alex Rider, she was trained from a very early age to become an, in her case, assassin.
When she was just two, she started learning how to swim. By the age of three, she was perfecting her English.
By the age of four, she started Tae Kwon Do and Ballet. Along with her Ballet lessons she would pick up phrases of French, her carers realizing this, would talk to her in French and teach her to read and write.
By the age of six, she could speak French, English, Korean, and Spanish. She was already known as a very talented ballet dancer.
By the age of sixteen she was already a black belt, two degree in Tae Kwon Do. She was a qualified Kendo fighter. She could speak English (obviously), French, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Russian, Indonesian, Mandarin, Cantonese and Austrian and Hungarian. She had the gift of learning languages very quickly. She had already completed, for piano, all students levels and master levels. In violin and flute she was just one exam away in achieving that. She played the harp so beautifully that lessons were given to her for free by the best harpist in the world. She was what they called a virtuoso in music.
But the most important of all skills was that she was a master shooter. She could shoot a target from miles away, whether it be an acorn, she would get it. She was talented in archery as well.
This girl does sound unbelievable, when I heard of her I was just stunned and thought she didn't even exist. I found it so hard to believe.
Well, then I thought, Alex Rider will have some tough competition.
