Author's Note: After several weeks of contemplating, planning, stress, and bugging the hell out of my friend, Ana, I finally got this written down. *phew* Sufficed to say, I'm quite pleased with myself. Review please!

Time Frame: I don't know. I guess somewhere around the middle of the series.





Chapter 1 Zwei Kaetzchen




It was late in the day, and many small shops that lined the streets of Tokyo were closing. The sun was setting, the smaller roads were clearing, and everything was normal.

A girl, somewhere around the age of eighteen, with chin-length, dark brown (almost black) hair and bluish-green eyes stood outside of on particular shop called Koneko no Sumu Ie. The girl had a look of mystery upon her face as she looked at the small slip of paper in her hand.

It read:


Koneko no Sumu Ie. 6:35 P.M.

Manx sent you.


The girl looked at her watch. 6:33 P.M. She was a little early. She straightened her black T-shirt and made her way across the street. The shop had not yet been closed, and there was only one person inside. He looked fairly young, with rather large blue eyes and blondish-gold hair. He looked up at her.

"Kombanwa! How may I help you?"

The girl tried to remember some of her Japanese. "A woman sent me here. She called herself Manx."

The young boy's expression changed immediately. It went from one of extreme happiness to one of extreme seriousness. "Manx? Okay. Help me close up then, and I will get the others."

The girl was confused about who the others were, but nodded anyway. The boy went to the shop door and locked it as the girl pulled down the shutters.

When they had finished, the boy took off the green apron he was wearing and hung it on a small peg in the back. He turned to the girl. "My name it Tsukiyono Omi, by the way." Omi held out his hand so she could shake it.

"Tory Hayes," the girl said, not accepting the gesture. This boy, Omi, was far to cheerful for his own good.

Omi led her out of the shop and down some stairs into a larger room. It had a couch and several chairs set up in it, with a large T.V. in the middle. Several young men were already seated.

One with longish blonde hair that was pulled into ponytail looked up to Tory and Omi. He pushed his sunglasses up to the bridge of his nose, only to have them slip down again. "Who'd you bring down with you, Omittichi? and is she over eighteen?"

Tory gave him a mean glare.

He laughed. "Uh oh, looks like we'll have another Aya running around, won't we?"

Omi frowned. "Cut it out Yohji! This is Tory. Manx sent her, so I'm guessing she's the newest member of Weiss. Tory, that's Kudou Yohji," he said, pointing to the blonde man," That's Fujimiya Aya," pointing to a red-haired man, leaning against a wall, wearing an expression much like Tory's,"And that's Hidaka Ken." The last was a brunette sitting in a chair resting his foot on a soccer ball.

"Now, Ken," said Yohji,"No beating up this new member, okay?"

Ken scowled at Yohji and turned quite red.

"It's good to see you all getting along so well," said a new voice.

Everyone looked up to see a red haired woman in a very red outfit and large heels standing at the top of the stairs.

"'Evening, Manx," said Yohji. "You doing anything tonight?"

She smirked. "Shut up, Balinese. I see you've all met Cymric?"

Everyone looked at Tory. The nodded. "Good," Manx said. "Let me introduce another member. This is Shona Blackwood, Mau."

She stepped aside to reveal a girl a little older than Tory with brownish-red hair with blue streaks that was tied back into two low ponytails and grey-blue eyes. Her outfit was not almost all black like Tory's was, but was quite punk. Her expression was quite sad, not angry like Cymric's.

"Mau and Cymric are train-ees," Manx continued. "You will train them to be asassins as you are. They will only be here for three months, and by the end of that time, Persia expects them to be the best."

All eyes focused on the two new members. The two newest asassins.

It was a welcoming to a dark life.




~ End Zwei Kaetzchen ~


Yes, I know, short and stupid. This is just to get a start off for the story. The next couple of chapters should be longer, as they have a plot to them. Forgive me, this is my first try at a decent fanfiction! ^_^* R & R please

(Next chapter we learn the pasts of Mau and Cymric.)
