Fatale, fifteen years of age
Jonothan, twenty-six years of age
Of course I missed Nikki. I wrote him every day, but I never sent him the letters. I was too embarrassed to tell him that I had run away. After all, I looked up to Nikki, the way he didn't show any weakness, how he could always remain strong, even in the toughest situations.
But I ran away for good reasons. I not only ran away because of what Sinistre was doing, but because she had another child. Black hair, green eyes. She no longer needed me. I could tell, because after I ran away, she never came searching for me. Talk about a heartbreak.
Jonothan cared about me, though. He got me anything I asked for, as long as I killed for him. That was no problem for me. Within two months of staying with Jonothan, I became the top assassin of the region. That was saying a lot, considering people were still enrolling children into my mother's school.
One evening, as Jonothan and I were plotting another "mission", we heard a heavy, demanding and sharp knock on the door. Jonothan stood up to answer it. "May I help you?" he asked.
"I believe there's a young girl named Fatale staying here."
I immediately recognized the voice. Aunt Aurora. Had Sinistre sent her? If not, why was she here? "I'm not here to take her away from you," continued Aurora, "but I am here to stay as long as she does. I'm her tutor." Surprisingly, Jonothan stepped inside, and in walked Aurora.
Aurora, age unknown
After that, my life changed forever.
