"I do but it's kind of like rubber. Although sturdy is extremely flexible" I answer him. "Being flexible is one of the reasons why I'm the top assassin."
"What do you mean top assassin?" Ren asks.
"I'm the best assassin in the world. It's actually where I get most of my income from." I answer him.
"So that's why when you killed those people in the submarine you didn't seem fazed and conitnued to smile."
"Yes but then I've never really been fazed by dead people" I shrug my shoulders.
"When was your first kill?" Ren asks me.
"I don't remember but it was probably when I was about 1" I guess.
Ren keeps quiet when he hears my answer.
"Sorry but I don't know" I say with a bright smile but I'm far from happy. I walk out of the warehouse and Ren does the same. I lock up and turn around to see Ren already walking in the direction of our street. The smile on my face disappears and a cold and murderous look replaces it. I walk in the direction of the port.
'Don't think about it' Astrid voice fills my head. I stop thinking about how my older sister died and start to thinking about the ocean.
When I get to the port, I see that people are everywhere. I find a secluded spot and take off my jacket and storing it into my ring. I'm left in my singlet and small shorts. I jump off the edge and into the water.
I swim out of the port where there are a few boats around. I dive underwater so that they don't see me. I don't resurface but instead swim to the bottom of the ocean where all I can see is the bottom and the water. I stare at the endless colour of blue and green.
'If only I could stay down here forever' I think to myself. 'But I can't' I resurface and teleport back to the house.
"Holy cow!!" Killian falls off of the gaming chair when I appear. "My god Adira you scared me."
"Sorry" I say before going to the bathroom and taking a bath. I walk out of the bathroom in a black singlet and short high waisted lace up shorts. My outfit shows off my flawless skin and body. I tie my hair up in a messy bun.
"Adira my games lagging!" I hear Kai's voice shout from his room. I walk to his room to find all 4 boys are there. I walk over to the computer and press a few keys until the lagging stops.
"Ta-da! Done" I say when I'm finished. I walk out of the room and into the kitchen grabbing snacks.
"Those clothes are too revealing" Ren's voice says behind me. I turn back to see him staring at my body.
"But you seem to like it" I make my voice sound seductive. I walk up to him and run my hand across his cheek. He blushes. "Aiyah! You're just so cute" I pinch his cheeks making him blush more.
"L-like I-I said b-before those clothes are too r-revealing" Ren repeats his sentence stuttering.
"They aren't. I could walk around in the house with just underwear and a bra on if you'd like" I say smugly.
"Aren't you embarrased saying those words?" Ren gets fired up.
"Nope. I was taught to always be confident and proud about myself even if I have flaws" I say while walking past him.
"What flaws could you possibly have?" Ren doubts that I have any.
"I have a lot to be honest" I answer him. "Like this one" I pull my shirt and my bra up a little to reveal a black phoenix.
"When did you get that?" Ren leans in closer.
"Born with it" I walk back to my room.
"You were born with it?" Ren exclaims following.
"Yes all children in the royal family are born with a mark. Mine was a phoenix, my 2 younger brothers had an eagle and a fish. My older brother Oreo has a dragon and the rest of my older siblings had wolves in different poses" I exlpain.
"Okay"
"Here take a seat" Killian pats the space beside him. Ren thanks him and sits down. I sit in the gaming chair and log into the computer. "Don't play that too long" Killian tells me. I put my headphones on ignoring him.
I log into a fighting game and start to play.
'Strong cold has invited you to join in a raid.'
I accept the request and meet up with him in the boneyards. We meet the boss which starts to attack us.
"Qiang strike his left shoulder" I speak through the speaker.
"Got it" Qiang says back.
"Mind if we steal this from you?" Wei and Jun's voice speaks through the headphones. I turn my avatar around to see the two of them standing next to a skeleton.
"If you do I'll beat you up in the game and in reality" I threaten them.
Hot_Temper and Jun has joined the raid. The notification speaks.
"Big boss what we said before don't take it personal. Here we'll help you" Wei and Jun attitude takes a 180 degree turn.
"Good" I start attacking the boss with the help of the Li triplets. After a minute we are able to kill the boss. We share the goods among us before heading in different directions. I go to one of the main cities in the game and trade the goods I just got for money.
"You play too?" Ren asks when he sees what I'm playing.
"Yes I've been playing since it came out" I answer while fighting a boss in the forest.
"What's your name I'll add you" Ren says.
"Kara" I answer the name of the avatar I'm playing.
"Okay" Ren says remembering the username.
I kill the boss before saving my progress and logging off. I turn and send a fierce look in Ren's direction. "It's time for you to go."
"Adira don't be rude" Killian says.
"His mother is calling in 3....2....1" I count down. Ren's phone rings. He looks at the caller ID before looking at me.
"Bye" Ren leaves.
"Goodnight Kiki" I say to Killian before climbing up the loft and falling asleep.
***
The next day I wake up at 4:30 and do my usual routines of running, bathing and eating. I go to school and finish before walking to the warehouse.
"Chikara" Ren says when I come into view. He was leaning against the warehouse waiting for me.
"Let's go" I open the warehouse.
