Watch me fly... You know I'll crash...
|
Serenity walked down the path used by most travellers, her pace slow for she was in absolutely no hurry. Her client, who happened to be another one of those dark hooded people she have been getting a lot lately, had given her a task which she had to complete within a week, but it was fairly simple and easy that she would be able to complete it in a few hours. For she had only to send a letter to someone in a village not to far away from Trevena. So nothing's bound to go wrong... Right? |

Having someone else deliver the ransom reply was a smart thing to do, Onasen thought. By having someone else do it, not only could she remain unseen (and perhaps undamaged in her weakened state if things got out of hand), she could stake the place and wait for her visitor. Someone back at the tavern mentioned a young girl who often did random jobs such as delivery. What made this young girl an even better choice was her supposed skills in assassination. Now, Onasen was not looking to have her visitor killed by hands other than her own, but knowing how to kill someone would come in handy for this young girl if things got out of control at the drop. And quite frankly, Onasen was not the type to jump in and do the saving; she preferred working from the shadows. She was no hero, either. Walking the stone alleyway, Onasen peeked from under her hood to the open area ahead. She saw a female fitting the description of her delivery girl. Onasen examined the girl. She saw no reason to assume this was a setup and stepped out of the shadows onto the open walkway. She made her way over to the girl. Meeting the other's gaze, Onasen tilted her chin. Her eyes tailed downward in a once over, yet again. "Well. . ." she began, "you're a puny one, aren't ya? Woman after my own taste." |

Something didn't feel right to Serenity, as she walked down the streets of this town full of thievery, murder and any other heinous activities. Her hand close to her dagger in case some amatuer of a thief decided to take a shot at her. The Lycan wondered why her client would want to bring her to this town, which she had heard many rumours(not good ones) from taverns she hung out in, though no plausible answer came in mind. Serenity halted to a stop, she strained her ears, listening for the slightest of slight sounds. There was no mistake, someone was here, but before she could yell out for the person to show themselves, she stepped out of the shadows. Her first impression on the woman was that she was just another woman, but the aura pulsing out of the woman was another personality compared to her appearence. "Well. . . you're a puny one, aren't ya? Woman after my own taste." Serenity couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the woman when she called her puny, despite being smaller than most adults she was much taller for fifteen years and despite the fact she had the build of any fifteen year old girl, she had the strength and agility of a wolf. "Are you the person I'm suppose to meet?" |

Onasen could see that the delivery girl was caught off guard and confused over the comment made. She chuckled, although slightly disappointed. But whatever; she was allowing her personal interest to distract her from the task at hand. Dismissing her thoughts for now, Onasen ran a bony finger over her lower lip and chin while clearing her throat. She couldn't release too much information, especially not upon first contact. And it was quite clear to her that this girl was wiser than her appearance; something was off. "Obviously," she replied with an air of arrogance, "so let's skip the chatter. First, I need to know if I can trust you. Would you mind showing me the back of ya neck?" Pausing or a moment, Onasen smirked. She ran a sharp, long, red nail across her mid neck saying, "Promise not to." "What d'you say, shake on it?" |

Serenity couldn't help but be wary in the woman's presence, not that she wans't always wary around these clients, but her aura but her in more unease. She couldn't identify the race of the woman, for she had never come across such an aura in her lifetime, but she could smell out the human part of the woman, concluding that she was a hybrid of some sort. But, she couldn't help but be caught of guard by her first question. "You can't..." The Lycan said, though this was an oppotunity for her to gain a few coins, it didn't mean she was going to be trustworthy to her client, most of them tend to hide dark secrets. "And why would you need to see that back of my neck?" |

"And why would you need to see that back of my neck?" Onasen clenched her teeth and frowned. Why did this girl have to be so god damned nosy. Though she could understand the other's lack of trust entirely, the girl's being uncooperative was really getting in the way of business. Business that needed to be tended to immediately. Grinding her teeth, Onasen looked up at the darkened sky, as if asking the moon for advice. The thought of her once worshiped God brought a flash smile to her lips, which disappeared as quickly as it came. "Some God you turned out to be," Onasen whispered, so low no human ear could master. Humming, she turned back to the girl. Should she confide in the girl this small bit of information; why she needed to examine the back of her neck? If she did so, only more questions would arise. And not only that. . .by knowing the truth, the girl may very well turn down Onasen's "job." "I can't tell you that," she said flatly. "But you have me word that it does not involve physical harm to you, unless I find a'certain marking." |

Serenity felt the wave of annoyance radiate from the woman when she question her unusual request. It was not her fault she was cautious and uncooperative. But she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at what the woman whispered, her ears were sensitive enough to catch the sounds a human would miss, though she decided not to prod or poke on the matter. "I can't tell you that," The woman said. "But you have me word that it does not involve physical harm to you, unless I find a'certain marking." Reasonable enough... Serenity turned around, her back facing the woman. With one hand she flicked her hair to the side, exposing it to the woman's eyes. Her other hand was close to her dagger. Just incase the woman tried to do anything funny... |

With a silent sigh of relief, Onasen stepped closer to the girl and placed an icy hand against the base of her neck. She felt the girl's stiff and distrusting stance. Ignoring it, Onasen ran her fingers against the girl's skin. Nothing. Quickly, Onasen released the woman and jumped back a few steps. "Thank you," she muttered. "Now shall we discuss the matter at hand?" |

Serenity suppressed the urge to shudder as she felt the woman's icy hand touch her skin, but somehow she managed to stay put. It was over quickly, much to her relief, she didn't like the icy feeling along her skin. She turned around to face the woman. "Thank you. Now shall we discuss the matter at hand?" Finally... Serenity thought, almost muttering it. "Yes... What's the job?" |

Onasen took a moment to mull over how she should describe the job without going into such great detail that she told this girl everything about her person affairs. On the one hand, she could simply tell the girl that she had a note needing delivered to a village outside of Trevena. If she did this, she would not run the risk of getting personal. However . . .she could not just put this girl's life in complete danger by not advising her of the severity of who they were dealing with. Taking a deep breath, Onasen, out of habit, looked back to the moon. The stars were bright tonight, and the moon glowed through the midnight clouds. It truly was beautiful. The peaceful appearance gave Onasen's mind ease. Not wanting to make friends, but not wishing to possibly be the cause of someone's death, Onasen decided the best way to tell this girl her job. Closing her eyes and tilting her chin away from the sky, Onasen sighed sharply. "Ya job," she began, "should you choose to take it, is fairly simple, but runs the risk o'being dangerous. I wish for you to deliver a note to a small village outside of Trevena. You'll need to place the note between two books in the Herbal Section of the library. Once this's done, you will wait near by, so that you are visible to he whom will retrieve it." |

Serenity listened o her new errand, sounded easy and something she'd accomplish in a few hours at the least. Though through what she could sense, there was something this client was not telling her... Something that could jeopardize her life... But she kept her mouth shut, reasing an eye brow instead. "Easy enough..." |

"Easy enough. . ." Good, so the girl was in. Onasen felt at ease with her conscience, having at least told the girl that the job could be dangerous. And it probably would. In fact, Onasen was certain that Ying Yang would send one of his closest minions to retrieve this note. Because in the last one sent to her, Onasen was told to reveal herself; in other words, she was to go out into the open this time, rather than hiding in her shadows. Which was going to happen against her will, even had this girl turned down the job, seeing as Onasen had been stripped of all abilities. "Fucking rat bastard," Onasen mumbled. But thanks to this girl, Onasen herself could remain invisible. This was what she could not tell the girl. But regardless. . .this girl had agreed. What happened from here on out would not be faulted on Onasen. And so long as she didn't have to feel guilty, everything was okay with her. "Good," Onasen half grinned. "Have the letter delivered by sun-up tomorrow. When you are finished, I will meet you at the Horseshoe tavern in Trevena." Edited by Onasen, Jul 3 2009, 02:02 AM.

Serenity couldn't help but have a nagging feeling that the woman wasn't telling her something, and usually when her clients witheld any information from her about her job, it's usually something that would risk her life. But despite the fact she wanted to grab the woman by her shirt and shake her in to telling her what she was witholding, but she managed to stay put. She listened to the woman's instructions, it sounded easy enough for her to accomplish... But with the withheld info she was starting to grow a little suspicious... |

Onasen could sense the suspicion lurking in the girl. However, it seemed that the delivery girl was not about to question her, so Onasen grinned and, with a curtsy dismissal, turned her back to the girl and began walking away. As she walked back through the darkened alley, she raised her hand and voice slightly. "Remember to remain visible." And now Onasen would follow this girl and observe Ying Yang's next move. Hopefully all would progress smoothly and Onasen could simply meet the girl at the Horseshoe tavern after all was said and done. . . But she doubted anything would go as planned. |

Serenity blinked as the woman disappeared into the dark alley, then started to walk to the Library. She couldn't help but feel she was walking into a trap or something into those lines or other, the woman DID witheld information so she could be walking into a trap, but for some reason she had a feeling this trap wasn't for her... But it is a simple job... Isn't it? |
