The Assassin
I was running through the King's Garden, away from my parents and the king's guards. I stopped in a field of red roses, and sat down, looking around I heard footsteps and decided to ignore them and get caught.
"You there, what are you doing here?"I heard some one say from behind me. Who ever is behind me, they touch me I'm going kill them.
"Hiding from," I paused, "people."
"Who?" He asked.
"Take me to the king, I could be very useful to him."
"What is your name?" He asked.
I smiled, "Arabella."
"Now I may take you to the king, but first you must change into something more appropriate."
"What do you mean?" I asked him suddenly.
"You need something appropriate to wear infront of the king." the man said touching my arm as I stood up. I smiled wickedly, and grabbed his hand flipping him over me.
"Don't touch me again and no screaming or loud noises," I said letting go of his arm.
"Why?"
"I have delicate hearing, in other words, whispering is talking, talking is screaming, screaming kills my ears and high pitched noises do it to. I am super strong and fast. I have perfect sight and I fight perfectly."
"Come on then Arabella."
"I go by Bell."
"Bell, follow me," he said walking away. I walked behind him for awhile, till he stopped at a door and yelled "Princess we have a girl here who needs to borrow a dress!" I winced and covered my ears. "Sorry," he whispered
"Come in!" She said. I smiled as the door opened and I told her the exact thing I told the guard.
"What are your names?" I asked them.
"I am Dimitri," The guard said.
"Angelina, I go by Angel though."
"Nice to meet you Angel, Dimitri," I said.
"Come in and pick out a dress," Angel said as she led me into her room.
"Do you have any black dresses, short maybe?" I asked.
"Yes, here try these on," She said handing me two dresses.
I tried them on and picked the loose one that came to my knees. "Thanks Angel, maybe we could become good friends, if your father doesn't kill me," I said as I left, hearing Angel laugh.
Dimitri took me to King Caden and told him the same thing I told Dimitri and Angel "Now I may show you what I can do," I said and he motioned for a gaurd to take of his armor and come toward me. I smiled as he came close and told him to grab my neck.
"No!" He said firmly. I kicked him in the shin and when he bent over I kneed him in the forehead and he groaned.
"Now pick me up by the throat!" I said to him. He picked me up. I smiled, "Considering most people do this to kill their opponents so I came up with a trick to get out," I said as I kneed him again in the forehead. He nearly let go of my throat, so I put my hands on his shoulders, flipping myself over him. Then him over me landing him face first into the floor.
"TA-DA!" I said as I stood up.
"Bell, you are to be an assassin, for me."
"Thank you!" I said excitedly As I did a cartwheel and a back flip.
"You have to do something with your hair, though, cut it, make yourself look like a guy and where a wig around the market, but you don't have to wear one in the kingdom unless some one is here," King Caden said to me.
"Will I be staying at my old house?" I asked hoping he would say I needed to stay here.
"No you will be staying here, Dimitri show her to her room!" The king said, I smiled.
"Yes Dimitri show me my room," I said as I strutted up to him.
"Very well then, follow me!" He said beginning to walk toward very large double doors. I followed behind him for a while stopping every once in a while to look at some thing.
"So when did you become a guard?" I asked him walking toward a painting of a small family.
"I had just turned 18. I have lived here ever since I can remember, you are looking at my family."
"Wow, you all look so calm and worry free," I said running my hand along the painting memorizing it. "I wish my brother were still here."
"What do you mean?"
"My Father killed my brother when I was ten and him thirteen, I told him I would avenge his death and I will."
"Oh, that makes sense now,"
"Can you take me to my room?"
"Sure," He said opening a door, "Here is your room."
"This is so cool," I said walking into my new room. It was black with purple skulls, on the walls there were knives and swords every where, there were three doors, "What are the doors for?"
"Bathroom, closet, and your training room," Dimitri said.
"Cool."
"You there, what are you doing here?"I heard some one say from behind me. Who ever is behind me, they touch me I'm going kill them.
"Hiding from," I paused, "people."
"Who?" He asked.
"Take me to the king, I could be very useful to him."
