• the first sword to reach flesh
    the metallic splice of the sword
    the blood
    it ran down the blade
    like a river of red
    and the man made noises
    as a bubble of blood formed
    in his throat and popped
    as he pulled his blade out
    the man made one more
    unhappy gurgle and gave in
    he died
    the assassin made a happy escape
