"The Kira case?" The girl asked curiously.
"Yes, apparently vampires all over the world have congregated under one who calls himself the God of the new world. They contact each other somehow and kill criminals in the masses to create a perfect world. We need you to kill as many as possible and hunt down and kill the one whom calls himself God."
"I understand Sir. Will this be a solo mission?"
"We find it best for it to be solo; we don't want a lot of Hunters on this. We want to make it seem like we caved to Kira's power. Therefore-"
"I must be discrete and kill vampires at random, not just Kira vampires."
"Exactly, though it is highly likely your mission will be found out try and prolong it. Also, this is extremely important that it is taken care of, meaning for this mission only we will lift the rule of Contact with Vampires."
"I see. When would you like for me to depart?"
"Tonight once it's dark. This will be a long mission, so pack well."
"Of course."
"You are dismissed." Nix nodded, finally breaking her completely still pose, having stood straight as she looked up at them. Turning she walked from the room and down the hallway, silent. Of course she was chosen for many long missions away from home. She was one of very few trusted to come back and follow rules to the T. Walking to her room she began to pack her clothes into a duffle bag, her sword and her scythe resting beside it. She had lots of spare time… so she decided to meditate.
Nix sat her legs crossed as she closed her eyes, evening her breathing and loosing herself in her subconscious mind. (AN: italics = thoughts. Bold/italics = flashback bold/(parentheses) = me talking to you! And bold = subconscious meditative sturf)
Nix looked around her happy place as many called it. It was her mental sanctuary. A beautiful wooded area lit by the full moon. Sitting around her was her other selves… her emotions. The ones she stopped feeling a long time ago. Happiness was bubbly and bouncing around. Lust was off in the corner fingering her, sadness was sobbing into her hand and anger was yelling at Lust and Sadness. It was amusing. Though it soon become boring as she stood. Nix walked out of the clearing into the trees… before falling.
~Flashback~
She was 13, fighting away her life as she looked into the glowing red eyes of the vampire whom stood above her. She hadn't earned her scythe yet, only fighting with her sword as they exchanged blows. The vampire striking out with claws and blade, suddenly the girl was struck in the head.
~End of first flashback, begin new flashback~
A three year old girl struggled, screaming and crying as her mommy and daddy were taken away from her. Her big turquoise eyes filled with tears as her mommy and daddy where tied to big wooden posted, covered in tires and doused in gasoline. Then… the flames spread and screams of agony filled the air. But one stood out amongst the others.
A simple scream of.
MOMMY
~End flashback, start new one~
"Mommy."
"Mommy."
"Mommy."
"Mommy."
A little girl, age five sat in the corner of a very dark room, her turquoise eyes wide and her pupils so big they made her eyes look black. She rocked back and forth on her bottom, hugging her knees to her chest…. She failed… she had failed the council and was being punished. It was so dark…
The girl shrieked when a blinding light flared through the room, blinding her as her extremely wide pupils took it in. Covering her eyes she shrieked in pain… then the light went away and she was left in darkness once more, her eyes readjusting… only to be assaulted again… and again… and again…
"Mommy." Came a quiet whimper.

Drip. Drip. Drip. Drip. Drip. Drip. Drip.
Chinese water torture.
It was the worst thing ever.
Especially, when you are merely 8 years old.
The child's eyes were losing their brightness, their life, being replaced with a dull, empty look.
Drip.
She was losing her ability to feel.
Drip.
Happiness went first.
Drip.
Anger next.
Drip.
Sadness.
Drip.
She lost who she was.
Drip.
Losing the ability to think independently.
Drip.
She'd remember all of this.
Drip.
But be taught it wasn't bad, it was real parenting…
Drip.
If only she knew.
Drip.
Drip.
Drip.
Drip.
Drip.
Drip.
~End flashback~
Nix's eyes opened and she stood in the clearing, her eyes slowly opening as she looked down at herself. She was covered in a white sheen, but underneath was a blackness… that leaked through. A inky blackness that consumed her soul, she was a dark being, wrathful and hate filled… but she hid that behind a thin shell… a white sheen showing what they wanted to see from her. They didn't want such blackness, such wrath… they wanted a robot… and the white sheen… she was a robot.
"But it doesn't have to be like that~" A sing songy voice echoed from the woods, her emotions having joined together, making an inky black fog around her feet that went to her ankle. Nix looked around the woods, frowning deeply as she watched for the owner of that voice.
"You don't have to be their robot." It came as a whisper right behind her, in her ear… she spun around quickly, but whoever was there was gone, leaving only upturned fog in their wake.
"Don't hide from me." She said in her normal monotone. There was a giggling.
"Why do you insist they are good people? Deep down you know their brainwashing didn't work. Because you're stronger, you know it was wrong. So why act like it isn't?"
"Because it isn't." she stated once again in monotone.
"That's the robot talking~ Oh Nixy, why don't you come and join us?" Nix blinked, before her eyes got wide, her precious wood began to catch fire… and out of the un-burning trees walking a familiar vampire. Nix got stiff, seeing V. And behind her…
Walked another Nix, one eye blood red and the other a brilliant gold color, she hand fangs that glinted in the firelight…
"No. No I will not join you!" Nix shouted, horrified that her beloved wood was burning away. Suddenly V was standing before her, her eyes burning a fierce bloody red as she tilting the shorter girls head up.
"Accept your fate." She hissed.
"NOOOO."
Nix's eyes snapped open and she panted hard, her eyes wide as she looked around her dorm… it was the same… I wiped the sweat off her brow, hanging her head. She sat like that for a long moment, catching her breath… before shaking her head and standing, her eyes back to their normal cold emotionless state. She pulled on a helmet, fastening it and fastening her sword and her scythe to her before grabbing her bag. It was time to go.
Nix hopped on her motor cycle, her scythe hanging over her head ominously as she started her bike, pulling out of the area and driving away.
Nix: Like I said. Way to much fun with this chapter. Follow, Favorite, and Review!
