Chapter 2 : Changing life

Later in the past...

After you and Sano lived with each other you began to trust each other more and Hao taught you about shamans and more about your purpose in life. You got more familiar with the rules in your new life. Until, one day on your 7th birthday, would change your life and way of thinking, Forever.

(Still in the past)

The second day you had the gloves, Hao told you to put them on. You obeyed. Then he told you to consentrate on getting Sano with you. It took you a little while to get the hang of it, but Sano knew exactly what to do.

Later in life, you and Sano began working together.

In your earlier years you spent time training for what Hao called your destiny. He taught you how to use your gloves to kill people and how to do it without being noticed.

But on your seventh birthday, Hao told you he had a test for you. Not knowing really what a test was, because you never had one before, you asked, "You mean a game?"
"Sort of..." said Hao with a smirk. He pulls out a box with about a million files in it. He grabs a random one and shows you a picture. "See him?" he asks you.
"Yes.." you answer quietly. Them man in the picture was chubby and had a long beard, he was balding and had sort of brown and gray hair.
"I want you to find this man." Hao orders you. You nod. "I want you to bring Sano with you." You nod again. "Remember all that training we've been doing so you can do what you were born to do."
"Yes." You put your hand in your jacket pocket and grip your wooden memorial tablet. Hao knows what your doing and he nods. "But I can't kill someone..." you object without thinking.
"Oh yes you can." Hao chuckles. "And you will!" He adds on, louder still. "You will find him today. He will be an easy target for you. He's old, slow, and going blind."
"What if I get caught?" you ask.
"Who could catch you?" asks Hao.
(Somehow you knew what you were going to do was wrong...even though everything you had ever been taught had led up to this.) "I don't know..." you trail off.
"Good. Then you will start looking for him today." smiles Hao. He then dismisses you, and you go off to your room and grab your gloves from your bed. You put them in your jacket pocket. You go back out to Hao. "I don't know if I can do this..." you say nervously.
"I raised you! Put meat on your bones! Saved you from humans! And you can't even repay me?" he shouts. Then he closes his eyes briefly, calming down. "You are even more selfish then I thought."
"I'm sorry...lord Hao. Please forgive me" you say apologetically.
"That's right," says Hao smirking again. He gives you the photograph and points to the door. You Summon Sano and you both walk out the door while you slip on your gloves. You and Sano walk for a long time, maybe 3 hours. You follow the directions that say where you can usually find the man. And the, you spot him. He is wearing a brown coat and a brown hat. You look at Sano and he nods at you. "That's the one..." you whisper to yourself.
"Lets do it," Sano mutters.
You integrate him with your gloves and your heart begins to race.
