Chapter 2 - Darkness is Key

On the outskirts of the city night falls and darkness roamed around every corner, only a few lights were just enough to show if there was a person in front of you.

[step step step step]

Gracefully I run into an alleyway and smoothly jump over a high fence, running towards the entrance form one of the high-rise apartments.

Entering past the glass doors in a fashionable walk, I make my way towards the elevator, pressing button 'penthouse' the elevator goes up, I press mt watch and scramble the security footage, the little light on the security camera in the elevator goes dull.

Taking my glasses off and tying my long white hair up in a high ponytail, slipping my jacket off and turning it around and inside out as it went from red to black.

pressing the button on my watch again to unscramble the cameras only to finally reach the top floor, stepping out and towards the front door of the penthouse I gaze upon the muscular and big man of a door guard.

Guard: "sorry ma'am we cant let you in without confirmation."

Aimi: "Well of course, where are my manners, its right here!"

Rummaging through my purse I swipe out in one motion of my knife and slit the throat of the door guard as he falls, I catch his muscular body and lay him gently and quietly on the ground taking his key card. Swiping it down and entering the room I swiftly grab two ninja stars while bobbing from the fired bullets sent at me and I throw the two ninja stars right into the eyes of two guardsmen leaving them in pain just till I grabbed ahold of my knife and slit their throats.

Walking further into the penthouse I had killed about two more guards with my knife and was about to enter the main bedroom as a bullet hits the side of my arm sending a dark stain of red onto the black cloak, seeing the blood I stare at the wimpy guardsman and smirk.

Aimi: "what do we have here?"

[step step step]

Coming to a halt I stare at the trembling weakling with the gun in his hands as my smirk fades to an emotionless void leaning into the weakling I whisper in a cold and vague tone.

Aimi: "if you're not able to pull the trigger that firearm then don't hold what you're not capable of handling!"

With that I stick my knife right into the wimpy body, twisting my knife then retracting it as the small body falls down, I shake my head in discuss for what the world has turned into and make my way to the master bedroom door.

[Slam]

[BANG BANG]

Staring deeply into the eyes of this petty man, the main thing I hate about people like this is they make pother people stand up and protect them cause they cant be bothered to protect themself, but they still sleep like a baby thinking they are safe.

Every time I go to kill someone I always stare into their eyes, mostly I see fear, pain, mercy, and sometimes hate. I then look down at their body, they could be trembling, shaking, frozen in fear, but this one chose to get on his hands and knee to beg for his filthy life, how disgusting.

Aimi: "you dedicated your life to make yourself known by being wealthy but I'm more known than you and I'm just a humble person who knows how to play with a few toys."

Aimi: "oh and say hello to my parents when you get to hell!"

[Bang Bang]

My most favorite part when killing someone is seeing all the lifeless bodies around me, it's one of my most clear memories as a child.

Never show mercy for those that will kill you in an instant, this world is so cruel that if you're not strong enough then there is no point on trying to survive, or you will just end up like these people, dead, and had no significance in this world, wait for about a year and most would have forgotten them.

Aimi: "seeing all this blood, smelling the iron. its just too kind of you people"

[step step]

Walking out of the apartment building I make my way back to the same alleyway, pressing myself up against the wall and sliding down a little till I was sitting on the ground leaning against the wall.

Pulling out my phone as a vibration was emerging from the device so I slide the green button on the phone followed with a small 'beep'.

???: {"was it taken care of"}

Aimi: "yes boss!"

???: {"any witnesses?"}

Aimi: "I never leave witnesses! I'm not like you!"

???: {"very good, keep it that way. And remember! no leads!"}

[Beep~]

Aimi: "already taken care off"

*sigh*

Motioning to get up I notice a noise from another person in the alleyway and just continue to stand up as the mysterious person that was in the alleyway with me steps back, I sway back and forth until I was facing the figure.

Standing there staring at the mysterious figure, I lunge forward right as the figure starts running, as my fingers just missed the hem of the figures shirt.

As the figure disappeared into the darkness of the streets I put my knife away and walk out of the alleyway.

Walking down the dark and cold street I look up and see the same dark clouds, walking more faster, my footsteps are closer together with the slight tap sound that comes when my dark crimson red high heels hit the pavement.

feeling the chilly wind brush into my jacket I smile softly and look straight again as my movement comes to a stop, staring through the window of a clothes shop I see another glitchy figure, I stare at the figure as its short white hair moves slightly.

Stepping towards the glitchy figure and franticly looking around me but saw nobody, nothing. Everything all around me was just black as the glitchy little girl with a faint white mist covered her body stood there expressionless until she wiped a little trickle of blood off her cheek.
