After our conversation in the Wardens office, I was sent to the sleeping quarters to pick up my things. All the Erasers flinched as I walked in. Luxuriating in the fear being generated by my arrival, I slowly walked over to my bunk, the heels of my boots making light clicks every time they hit the ground. Reaching under the mattress with my still bound hands, I pulled out a small closed shoebox. Turning on my heel, I strode through the door.

I walked up the stairs to the roof with the helicopter landing pad, my Eraser guard accompanying me. We reached the helicopter just as the guy who called himself Father stepped onto it. Just before I got on, the Erasers came up to me and hesitantly deactivated the cuffs with a remote. During his hesitation I growled at him to hurry up. As soon as the cuffs were off, I punched the Eraser once in the nose, causing him to fall back down the stairs followed by a scream and a stream of blood. Hopping lightly onto the helicopter, I took my seat next to Father and stared out the window as we took off, my wings itching for me to take off.

I fell asleep on the way to the Organization (it was a really long flight!). After we landed, an Eraser guard came to lead me to the mess hall. The guard disappeared as I got to the door. Taking a deep breath, I opened the door and sauntered in. My immediate glance around the room revealed that most of the tables were filled up with Erasers. About three were empty, and one, I noticed, had two girls around my age sitting next to each other. Next, I saw the line for food. I walked over to it and got behind the last Eraser. Looking down, I saw the corner of something black that reeked of leather and paper. I used my slight of hand to snatch the wallet, smirking smugly to myself. As I took a step forward, I heard someone mutter "copy cat". Ignoring the mysterious mutterer, I followed the shrinking line of Erasers to the food. Or at least I thought it was food. It was a grey, oatmeal looking pile. Yummy. I grabbed tray, extending my claws through the plastic to scare the "Chef". Spinning on my heel, I searched for a place to sit. All the tables looked pretty full , except for the empty two and the one with just the two girls and a handful of jumpy looking Erasers (and I wasn't sitting by myelf on my first day). As I passed behind the two girls, I wrinkled my nose at the smell of blood and just plain unwashedness wafting from the taller girl. I walked up to the seat across from the two girls and started eating. "Tastes better than the other stuff, at least" I muttered to myself. "Better than what, exactly?", the smelly one said. Pausing, I looked up and said "Better than fodd that tastes horrible", the food at my branch had tasted like boiled cardboard. "So who are you?" the stinky one said. Ignoring her, I continued eating. "Tell me your name. That's an order from a higher ranked assassin!" I stopped eating, she had hit a nerve. I don't take orders well. I slowly reached down to my throwing knives. No one seemed to notice except for the smaller girl next to the Stinky One. The one with pale skin. I fingered the dragon design on the side of one of the knives. Just as the Stinky one opened her mouth again, I pushed the table back throwing tw knives at the same time, causing her to slam into three others on her way to the wall where she was pinned by the knives. I easily jumped the 20 feet between us, landing directly in front of her. As soon as I landed, I - "When do we engage the target?" the black-haired girl next to me asked. "Huh?" When Do We Engage?" she said again, slower. Glancing down, I stared into the caves we had just watched Shadows walk into. "The next time she comes out, I guess" I replied. "Ari's gonna be pissed were after his target." she stated. I shrugged "Does it look like I care?" Just then, an overwhelmingly strong sweet smell over came my senses. I looked down as I saw Shadows exiting the cave at the same time a pale-skinned male came running at her. "Aw, crap" I said as I jumped down, unsheathing my HF ninjato...
