Toshi Yoshida trailed Cameron Campbell along the rooftops, his black ninja garb blending in with the darkness.
He had a Tanto knife in hand and this would be his hundredth job.
He dropped from the roof when Cameron stopped, landing right behind the man.
His tanto flashed out for the target's spine, cleaving through his vest and-
Thunk!
The blade hit something stronger than flesh and was repelled.
Toshi knew he'd made a serious mistake.
Cameron Campbell whirled around, far faster than he looked, his right-hand slicing through the air.
A backhand with brass knuckles is what destroyed Toshi.
It broke his jaw on impact and caved in most of his face, his neck snapping to one side instantly.
Toshi bounced off the wall and lay there in an uncoordinated heap.
Cameron stared down at the body before putting his hands back inside his vest pockets.
"Ninja's…really?"
He eyed Toshi for a few more seconds, clearly expecting more out of the young man.
Toshi just wheezed out a tortured breath, unable to even move.
Campbell continued walking, heading for the nearby bus station.
