Azera the Assassian

Chapter 1-6

Chapter 1:The Assassin

My back slammed against the wall as she pressed herself against the front of my body. The knife’s edge flesh against my skin,I swallowed hard and felt the blade press even closer. The assassin said to me,”If you ever talk about my family like that again I will not hesitate to slice your pretty little throat open and let you bleed out”. Her teeth were clenched and her eyes glowed with an inner fire that I never knew existed.

But I was the princess,I knew she wouldn’t actually kill me, which is why I said what I said next. I said to the assassin

”Do it, I bit out.”I dare you. You already have a price on your head for being an assassin ,now you can have one for killing the crown princess”. “Try me”. The assassin blinked. I saw my opportunity and took it. Grabbing her arm,I pulled my own knife from the sheath on my thigh and spun her around so now her back was at the wall. I pressed the hard metal against the brown skin of her throat.

Much to my satisfaction,she looked surprised in the position she found herself in. “Try me.” I pressed the blade a little harder for emphasis, drawing a tiny drop of blood.

The assassin actually had the nerve to grin. “If you wanted to pin me against the wall,your highness,all you could do was ask”. I started getting closer to her with the blade making her bleed even more. I said to her,”Try me, are you even gonna kill me I thought you were an Assassin”.

The Assassin started to dash toward me and started choking me. She then said to me,”I want to kill you right now but I can't. I need your help”. She then let me go and I was trying to catch my breath. And I said to her,”Why would I want to help you, you're the person who’s trying to kill me”. She said to me,”Because if you don’t I will not hesitate to kill you with one little slice of my sharp blade right now”. I said,”FINE but what is it? It better be good”. The assassin said to me,”My enemy is trying to destroy my kingdom and your kingdom so we have to work together even if we’re enemies we need all the help we can get”!

I say to Ezra/The Assassin,”Okay but you have to make a promise that you won’t try to kill me during this “Mission” and put away your sharp blade”. Ezra slowly put her sword back into the case she then said to me seriously,”I promise but you have to put away your sharp blade so I don’t want you to kill me either during this so-called “Mission”. I put away my blade with a few splatters of blood back into the sheath on my thigh. I said,”We might as well be friends after this”. Ezra lost her temper and yelled at me saying,”NO THIS IS JUST FOR A MISSION”!

I covered my ears until she was done yelling,it was gonna be so hard to work with her. But at the same time it would be nice to see who she is in the first place. All I know is the first 2 letters of her name “A” &”Z”. I say to her,”Let's make a deal that after this we make a truce”. Ezra was silent for a minute thinking then she said to me,”It’s a deal i guess”. Now we had to work together to find this person or team who wants to take down Ezra’s Kingdom and my Kingdom.

Chapter 2:Working with the Assassin

I sigh the next morning and get up off my bed. I walked around my pretty mansion and got ready. I decided to meet at the courtyard since it's almost always where me and Ezra go when she tries to kill me as I’m the target for her next job. Well not anymore,now she has to work with me, the crowned princess, the target that she was gonna be paid millions of dollars to kill. I waited for a bit and Ezra finally came. She was different though this time,she was blushing around me and was grinning around me.

I thought it was strange but I just decided to ignore it anyway. I said to the Assassin,”That we should go to the nearest building and use our knife’s to try to aim and practice more,with angles and obstacles”. She said to me,”No, I already have years of experience, my highness”. She then bowed down to me,I was confused, I thought she hated me. Ezra paused, then said,”You can practice all you want and I will watch you and give you any tips”.

I purposely missed the tree/my target to see what Ezra would even do when she meant by “Tips”. She said to me,”Don’t throw it behind your back”. She then touched my hand and put the knife into my hand and not behind my back. I blushed,and gave her a smirk. I then started actually showing her my throwing skills for my sharp blade. Ezra said to me,”You’re ready, you're better than you think that you are my highness”. Ezra bowed down again. I asked Ezra,”I thought you hated me, why are you bowing to me being sweet and calling me highness”.

Ezra said to me kindly.``I don’t hate you but it’s just for respect after trying to kill you and everything of course and it’s nothing else ”. She was just blankly staring at me, not even looking away when I stared at her. We found this person, his name was Ronald Rund,we ran after him and pulled out our knives. Ezra put her sword right near Ronald’s throat and was about to kill him. But he pulled Ezra and had a sword behind his back he swung the knife right at Ezra.

Ezra screamed in pain as Ronald smiled and said,”The next time you see me Ezra I will kill you, got very lucky this time”. Before Ronald left I said to him,”I don’t care if you kill me but don’t hurt her”. Donald pulled out the knife and said to me daringly,”I wouldn’t kill you, your highness you're the queen”. Donald then walked away,I checked on Ezra and her arm was completely chopped off. I immediately called the hospital so she could get into the Ambulance. I said to her,”We should stop looking for Donald. I don't want you to get killed”. Ezra said to me,”No once I heal we will go follow him and stop him. I will not let him destroy my kingdom and your kingdom that easily”.

Chapter 3:Revenge

I cried waiting for Ezra even though she tried to kill me. I didn’t want her to just die,I mean it was kind of fun working with her. But we still had a lot to face,it seems like Donald had a DECADE worth of experience so he’s better then both of us combined. And that meant one thing,It was gonna be almost impossible. About a day after Ezra was at the hospital a nurse told me,”Ezra is okay but she’s still freaked out about everything and that’s completely normal for her to feel like that now go visit her”.

I saw her and asked Ezra immediately,``Why do you want to keep looking for Donald even after what happened to you”? Ezra said to me,”I’m not gonna surrender my kingdom that easily I want to protect until my whole last breath im not letting him destroy 2 kingdoms”!

I asked Ezra,”I know this is a bad time but what's your name even though you never told me”? Ezra says to me in a quiet tired voice,”My name is Ezra and sorry for not even telling you my name it was very impolite of me,your highness”.

I said to Ezra,”Don’t call me highness you’re working with me, call me by my first name”. Ezra said to me,”I don’t know your first name, can you tell me”. I said to Ezra,”My first name is Everly so just call me that please”. I decided to leave the hospital room to give her some time. I decided to do this mission without her. I didn't want her to get hurt again. I had to get this Donald dude dead no matter what it took for me to do. I knew where Donald would be,a few blocks from my Kingdom:Sunflower’s.

I was exactly right,I acted all innocent like he did nothing wrong,I then got out my sword/blade to kill him because I’m not gonna let him destroy my Kingdom that easily. Donald got out his sword too as I was about to kill him with my blade in his stomach. He started trying to get me but I kept dodging. And I hit him with my blade right on his stomach. Donald fell to the ground bleeding out and the last words Donald said were,”I will get my revenge you Murderer”.

I then got up as I saw that he was dead. I smiled and wondered on my day,I had killed someone before. This was my second kill,you’re probably wondering why I have killed two people. The first person I shot was my older sister so I could take the throne. Nobody in my kingdom knows that I killed her to get to the throne to be the princess and I’m happy with staying like that.

Every time I killed someone I went on my day thinking nothing about it. I planned to not tell Ezra that our Target Donald is dead. I want her to find out the hard way. A day later,Ezra got out of the hospital. I said to Ezra,”Let’s keep looking for Donald”. Ezra said to me,”Okay let’s go where we saw him last time,a few blocks away from your kingdom Eyerley” We went there and then Ezra was starstruck. Ezra said to me,”Donald’s dead, someone else killed him”. I pretended to look surprised but then we said,”We should work as a team still towards Danger ''.

Ezra grinned at me and said,” Why not I'm lonely anyways because it’s just me killing people for my job”. I asked Ezra randomly,” Do you wanna know how I’m a princess”? Ezra said to me,” Yes I do wanna know Princess Everley”. I said to Ezra grinning,” I killed my older sister so I could take the crown because I was a disappointment to my parents and my older sister was the “Big Miss Perfect”. Ezra’s Jaw drops, and says to me,” You have killed someone before I’m SHOCKED. I didn't think you would be capable of doing that”.

I smiled and said to Ezra,” Nobody else knows, don't tell my kingdom you’re the only one who does and I trust you enough to keep this secret of course”. Ezra said to me,” Of course, I will keep your secret princess Everley I wouldn’t tell anyone that”. I say to Ezra,” What do we do now my Assassin”? Ezra says to me,” How about you help me kill my 2 targets for my next job”

Chapter 4:Targets

The next day once Ezra’s boss/Lio told Ezra the 2 targets he told her the price and the names of the targets. Lio said to Ezra,” Your targets are Moni Plos and Konce Muy and you will get 2M dollars for each”. Ezra said to Lio,”Thank you I will get these targets killed as fast as I can”. Lio said to Ezra,”These two targets have a decade of skill, you're gonna need a partner”. Ezra says to Lio,”I’m gonna work with Princess Everley”. Lio says to Lio,”Are you insane she’s from the rival kingdom”!

Ezra says to Lio,”She’s killed someone and she has years of experience”. Lio then says to Ezra,”Fine you may but just be careful around her I don’t want you to get killed because you’re my best assassin”.

I sneaked in the room while they were talking to listen,Ezra saw me and I left but I still peaked by the door hearing every word. Ezra came out asking me,”Why were you in the room trying to hear everything”? I said to Ezra calmly, ``I wanted to know what you were talking about, I wanted to know who are the targets”.

I say to Ezra,”Now let’s go I know Moni and Konce. I can tell them to come into my kingdom and we can throw them down the stairs in a less painful way of death”. Ezra says to me,”No you should text them to come talk around the abandoned playground so you guys can “Talk”. Then we can kill them secretly and nobody would see us doing this”. I say to Ezra,”What a great idea I will text them right now and tell them to meet me there at the Abandoned Playground at sundown”.

Later that night Moni and Konce came to the Abandoned playground,While Ezra was hiding in the tree being dead silent she quietly pulled out her sword. I was talking to them normally,and saw they had nothing to defend themselves with. I paused, took out my sword and tried to cut Moni with the sword. Instead Moni blocked it mostly but her hand had a big deep wound instead. Konce tried to run away but Ezra came out and stabbed him with the sword about 5 times.

He fell down and said to me,”Why Everly why did you do this to me”? I say to him,”You betrayed me and lied to me now I’m getting revenge,bye bye Konce ''. I grinned,one down, one more to go. Me and Ezra started dueling with Moni but we kept missing. Moni kept dodging and dodging every little hit by the two of us.

We finally caught her and I held her back. She must have skills for defending herself because she threw me onto the ground. I cried in pain and quickly got back up because to me that was just a small little scratch.

Instead of us killing her,she fell down and didn’t get back up. I said to Ezra,”Let’s check to see if she’s still alive or not”. She breathed once then stopped,she was dead but not from us. We started heading back towards the Lining Headquarters to Lio. Once we got there he gave me 2M and gave Ezra 2M. To me,2,000,000 millions dollars isn’t much because when I was a kid my weekly allowance was 1 million dollars.

I smiled though and said,”Thanks” to Ezra’s boss for being nice and polite. My face turned into a frown as I realized…something was off. Ezra was acting strange. She said to me,”I gotta tell you something important”... I say to Ezra,”What is it that you want to tell me”? She says to me back and sighs,”You remind me of my old Assassin partner a few years ago,but she died on a mission sadly”. I say to her,”Oh I'm so sorry”.

Ezra said to me,”Don’t say sorry it was my whole fault I wasn’t even protecting her/Quinn and I have to live with it for the rest of my life that I didn’t save Quinn because I didn’t have enough time to”. I say to her,”How about we get your mind off of that and I’ll go get some ice-cream while you relax in your kingdom and when you hear me run as fast as you can back to the area”. Azera says to me,”That sounds lovely, get me 3 big scoops of Mint chocolate chip”.

Chapter 5:Ezra’s Point of View

I/Ezra smiled and laughed and thought to myself why would she really think that I could trust her. I laughed and texted to my boss,”Do you know the plan yet”? Lio texted me back,”I know what the plan is to meet me in 10 minutes in the Headquarters”. I text him back saying,”Okay I’ll start walking there”. I went there and said to Lio,”What’s the plan that you have?”. Lio says to me,”If you kill the little crowned princess you can be a queen/princess in your kingdom everybody in your kingdom wants to get rid of that stupid little blonde princess”.

I smiled and said to Lio,”I will gladly do that because I already wanted to kill her in the first place”. Lio says to her,”You have 3 days to kill her or I kill her myself. I'm not going to give you that much time because it’s an easier target”. I smiled and exited the headquarters as I dash back to my kingdom and wait by the steps to see Everley. I saw Everley with the ice cream. I ate the delicious Mint chocolate chip Ice cream as she finished and put the waffle cone into the trash.

I finished with mine then said to her,”Do you want to practice with me”? Everley said to me calmly,”Sure why not”. I then got out my sword as we both started practicing,I started getting closer to hitting her. Everley thought it was nothing of course,so I decided to take my chance and stabbed her with the blade. Everley said to me,”You're a traitor, you really stabbed me with your blade, you never even liked me, you just used me the whole time”. Everley breathed one more time as she lay down dead not moving nor breathing.

I laughed knowing that I would be the queen of my kingdom. But soon Everley got back up…and she revealed the corset that saved her life. She was running after me with her big old sword underneath her thigh in her flowy, bloody dress. Everley got me this time right in the stomach. I said to her and laughed,”It was always fun fighting with you”. I then had my last breath. Me/Everley was running; it wouldn't take long for them to find out what happened.

A few hours later, Everyone was talking about it and how Azera was dead. Officially the kingdom that had the assassin was so sad, but my kingdom was laughing and was so cheerful but things started going wrong the opposite way that I wanted it to go,I was caught and found out. Now the whole other kingdom was looking for me,I had to run away from the kingdom because I would be killed and I had to adjust to not living in a mansion.

But what I didn’t know was that in different states I was wanted because half of the states were in the same kingdom as the one that wanted me dead. I ran over to England knowing I would be safe there for sure of course. But the more time that I thought about it.. I started missing her. And I knew what to do next but it was about to be crazy.

Chapter 6:Seeing Azera

I was gonna turn myself into Ezra’s Kingdom for them to kill me so I could see her in the afterlife of course. Everything was going well. I got into the town and I told all of them calmly,” I’m turning myself in just kill me I regret it and it was my fault”. Bullets started coming right by me. I saw 20 bullets in my stomach and before I breathed for the last time I smiled.

The next moment I was somewhere. I didn’t know where I was though. I was standing on top of the cloud where I could see my whole kingdom. I walked around, I felt so safe and free. But then I heard someone with a pleasant sweet voice. This person said to me,”I heard that you wanted to see Azera again and I got just the thing for you”. She/Guardian of the Afterlife then brought Azera. I said to her,” I’m sorry I did that I know that you almost killed me but I still think of you as a freind”.

Azera said to me apologetically,”I get why you did that and my boss told me if I didn’t kill you then he would kill me”. I then hugged her and said,”Best freinds”?

Azera said to me,”For sure bestie”. I then pleaded to the guardian and said to her,”Please give the 2 of us one more chance we’re not even that old and I still have a life to live both of us are only 23 years old and we have accomplished nothing that we have wanted to do in our life yet”. The guardian smiled and said,”Of course young ones now good luck and I hope you live longer”. We then felt the cloud pushing us down back to our kingdoms.

I went into the kingdom as my family ran to me and cried their heart out. My mom said to me,”I thought you were gone sweetie".

She then burst into tears and hugged me super tightly. I smiled at her and said,” I’m glad I got to see you again to Mommy”. I then decided to live my life every day like it was my last day do all of my dream goals,have fun,write a story or actually spend time with my family for once in my life. I smiled at my mom as I said to her,”Well I’m here now and I won’t leave/abandon you like that ever again I promise”.

The end I know the ending sucks give me any ideas for stuff I should edit in this!
