Chapter 11 Angel of Death: Part 2
It was unusually quiet that night. Rogue could feel the warm breezes course through her hair as she knelt upon the edge of Marius Bordreaux's roof. She was wearing her traditional uniform with a long black leather jacket. Lifting her head so she could catch the embrace the gentle wind, Rogue's attention became grasped by the sound of voices below her. Looking down, she saw two men. Shifting backwards so she that she was hidden by the wispy flows of the bayou trees, she listened intently to the men's conversation. Rogue noticed that one of the men , who's hair was a peculiar shade of gray, appeared to be overly nervous.
" De y' get de elixir, T'addeus?"
" Oui.. But.."
" But what?"
" Y' breakin' de rules of de guild's compromise."
" And?"
" Well.."
" Listen 'ere T'addeus, dis elixir gon' help mah son com back t' normal. "
" Mon Dieu Marius, Y' breakin' what little peace be left inbetween bot' de guilds!"
Their conversation was interrupted by a swooshing noise. Whipping around, they were greeted by a woman.
" Don' worry ya little heads 'bout de guilds."
" Que est es ce?" ( What is this? : could be translated as)
The woman merely stared at Marius. He observed her as she casually glided over to them, leather coat billowing in the wind Her long auburn hair was pulled into a tight ponytail, leaving several dashing white streaks to fall carelessly across her face. Emerald eyes glared at him coldly as she stopped a few feet away from them.
" There is no need for ya ta know who ah am, Marius Bordreaux."
" An' how do y' know mah name?"
The woman shifted her body weight unceremoniously. Raising her head up to the sky, she breathed in deeply before turning her attention back to Marius. The other man, whose name was obviously Thaddeus watched her with unease. When she did face Marius, her face had lacked all emotion whatsoever. It looked almost evil.
" It is time, Marius Bordreaux."
" Time fo' what?"
" Ya fate will be decided."
A small gasp escaped Thaddeus's throat. Marius glared at the woman fiercely.
" How dare y'!"
Unbeknownst to Marius, Thaddeus had already high tailed it out of there leaving Marius alone with the woman. Cocking her head slowly to her left, she seemed to be contemplating something. Then, she gracefully whipped her coat off and carefully laid across the grass. Marius's eyes darted to her bare shoulders and stepped back shocked. The scale tattoo that she had on her left arm was moving. The two dragons that were wrapped around it's base seemed to be staring at him, then they slid up to the top and hissed loudly. The woman turned her gaze back at him.
" Time ta see ya sins."
Marius backed way from her slowly as she watched numerous little silver balls fall onto the opposite sides of the scale. At first it weighed out evenly, then it dramatically fell as more and more silver balls fell onto the scale. The two dragon's once more moved to the base of the scale and hissed at him before turning inanimate upon her skin once more.
Rogue smiled wickedly to herself. The man lost the game of life. Turning her head to gaze at her right shoulder, she saw the skull and crossbones glowing provocatively at her. The longer it glowed, the more it burned into her skin. Whipping her head to look at Marius, she saw that his face had gone pale with fright.
" Y' … y're not real. "
She merely smiled sweetly at him.
" Afraid ah am.."
" Non.."
" Goodbye."
Before Marius had a chance to run or scream, Rogue whipped out a long sword from behind her. With one swift flip of her wrist, she had managed to slice through his neck. As he fell to the ground struggling to breath, Rogue leaned over him and kissed him softly on the forehead. Then whispered into his ear.
" Death be swift."
Instantly, Rogue plunged the sword between his eyes with precision. Quickly wiping the blade off on his clothes, she turned to look around. Aware that the other man had escaped, she began to calculate how far he might've made. She still had time. Glancing back down at the lifeless corpse at her foot, she smiled.
" And an angel gets her wings."
Then she turned and gracefully leapt upon the balcony. Scanning for the man named Thaddeus, she managed to catch sight of his scurrying body. Diving off the balcony she silently crept up behind him. His senses caught on to her at last minute as she whipped out her sword again.
Thaddeus's eyes pleaded with her. Rogue merely smiled sympathetically before speaking.
" Goodbye."
" Wait..no, please..I had nut'in t' do wit dis..please don' kill me!"
Rogue paused for a slight second.
" Ya've seen mah face."
Thaddeus's body began to involuntarily tremble in fear. His eyes were wide with desperation and his face was pale.
" I promise I won' tell nobody!"
" Je suis Desole, Thaddeus… Death be swift."
She killed him quickly and darted into the shadows of the alleys. Not even looking back, she allowed for a single tear to roll down her face. Returning her sword to it's sheath, she began to return to the base.
" A sins correction is another person's defection."
And with this she turned down the street and walked back home whistling a slow tune.
