Chapter 36: Assassin and spy
Tamakaro picked up her first client and start to work on the next day. She ended up spying first and see what her target is moving. When her target is at her own house, Tamakaro have everything ready to kill her. With all of the poisons on the food that is highly deadly if is inside a hylian's body. For a gerudo, they are acceptable to the desert and its poisons. Most of the hylian target take the food that has the poison and was sick for three seconds and Tamakaro waited until the poison killed the target. Tamakaro was successful. The target died and no one expects it was a gerudo assassin. Tamakaro was getting more and more clients. She was like this and getting more money. She even steals money from her clients when they are not looking. Also she stole things from her targets house. Tamakaro was becoming a rich Gerudo. Tamakaro also does some spying for her clients too. Many of the time she looks for things to stole as a way that she wanted it. Townspeople knows Tamakaro as the hiddensand. Tamakaro gets more recognizable and have tougher jobs as a year passed by. Soon one client want her to go to hyrule castle to kill the king of hyrule. Tamakaro was shocked but accept it. Sneaking past the guards was easy. It was getting tougher when it comes to my brother Salik. She manage to sneak pass him. Once Tamakaro got to the inside of the castle. She smell something she never smelled before. These people she smell did not smell like hylians, zoras, or gorons. These people has a different smell and Tamakaro was curious about them but tried not to leave her mission and target. She was almost in position to get ready to kill the target. Tamakaro felt a presence behind her. It was the weird smell of the people she smelled.
"I see you have a view here," said a male in his late twenties. Tamakaro only stood there and was ready to throw the person off and kill her target.
"And what if I am. I am here just for a reason," said Tamakaro not telling him what she really is.
"Ah I see. The only gerudo that is an assassin over a year. Hiddensand may I recall it," said the person. Tamakaro was shocked that this person knows who she is.
"Very clever however I do have a job that needs to be done," said Tamakaro. The guy was about to throw her down when the king arrives, instead Tamakaro ducked and the guy fell down. Tamakaro went back hiding. The guy got back up and find Tamakaro missing. The person was looking high over hill for Tamakaro. He found Tamakaro at a secluded place.
"You are very clever hiddensand. However I wont let you pass," said the guy. Tamakaro like this part of the deal.
"Well that means you want to dance with me. That is fine I will dance with you," said Tamakaro as she pulled her scimitars out. The two were fighting and Tamakaro was winning at first. The other person manage to beat her.
"Well not bad for hiddensand. You manage to attack well for a dual wielder, but your skills are not match for a sheikah," said the guy.
"Is that so," said Tamakaro. She went attacking again. The sheikah manage to tore her blindfold. The sheikah smirked and was waiting what she will do.
"Well it seems I have the advantage if I keep aftering your blindfold. If I ripped it off I will get to see those eyes," said the Sheikah.
"Strike one," said Tamakaro as she attack him some more faster than before. The sheikah yawn and keep up with Tamakaro but in bare motions. The sheikah was more impressed on how she manages to move quicker. He got another glance and got the blindfold again and the blindfold is almost out of her eyes.
"If this keeps up I will get your blindfold and I will see how the hiddensand deals with her distraction of her blindfold off," said the sheikah.
"Strike two," said Tamakaro. She become more precisions with her movement as well moving faster. The sheikah now move in his normal pace to keep up with her. Tamakaro was getting ready to get him again and he started to manage to get rid of her blindfold. To the sheikah surprised he see her golden eyes.
"Wow. The hiddensand has the most beautiful eyes I ever seen in a gerudo," said the Sheikah. Tamakaro knows her blindfold is out.
"Strike three," said Tamakaro as she starts to go berserk. The Sheikah and her were dancing with the swords. Both lost their weapons and the sheikah got her pinned.
"You do look very pretty for a gerudo," said the sheikah. Tamakaro is shocked and was hoping something was coming out of it. The sheikah kissed her and give her a proposition.
"If you killed the other person I will double it and go out with her date," said the Sheikah. Tamakaro was shocked is even more and take that proposition. The sheikah vanished and Tamakaro left.
