Assassin of Crimson

Anna started to walk towards the bed and sat beside her body

'Should I just return to my body?' She thought

She thought about it for a few moments. Soon, however, she sighed and shook her head.

'No... Not yet...'

She finally decided to wait for few minutes and find out as much information she can from Damien and others

As she was deep in thought suddenly she felt something strange

'Huh? What's going on?'

Suddenly, she felt empowered,. as if a weight had been lifted off her.. She felt stronger. As she was pondering what she was feeling, she suddenly sensed some strange force within the environment but what caused her to be shocked was that the strange force suddenly started to move towards her and enter her body

Anna was shocked out of her mind when she saw that

'W-what's going on?'

She tried to think of things it could be however it was impossible to come to a conclusion with the little amount of the information she had, Which made her decision of delaying the return to her body all that concrete

Just as she was thinking about it she heard a strange noise

"Hss..."

Anna turned towards the direction the noise came from and flew out of her window there she saw a person stealthily making his way towards her window via the roof..

'Oh! Assassins' Anna said as she looked at the hooded figures following him

'Hmm.. he must be the leader of the group' Anna said while nodding her head

'They want to make sure, I am dead huh' Anna looked at the assassins with a cold and ruthless gaze

Suddenly, The leader of the group stopped and placed his hands on the ground

[Sound Barrier]

A blue translucent dome was created from the place he had placed his hands on which soon disappeared.

Then one of the 3 hooded figures walked forward and took out a mouse from a small cage.

[Animal Puppetry]

The hooded figure's eyes turned black and the mouse's eyes turned the same as that of the hooded figure. ( yellow )

Another hooded figure walked forward and pointed his hand towards the mouse.

[Telekinesis]

A very weak yellow glow started to illuminate from the mouse as it started to float in the air, The hooded figure then moved his arms in different ways to send the mouse inside the window

Soon the mouse was inside Anna's room and started to walk around.. he looked at all corners first then he moved towards the bed. There he saw a shiny light blue haired girl sleeping on the bed.. After Making sure that there was no one other than the girl inside the room the mouse's eyes returned to its initial colour as the hooded figure broke its connection from the mouse

"Only 1 person and that's the girl" Said the hooded figure who had controlled the mouse

"Hmm… Let's move then" Said the leader of the assassins

They all moved towards the last hooded figure and placed their hands on his shoulders

[Quick Flight]

All of the hooded figures took flight together and started to fly towards the window.

Anna who was standing beside them had an excited and shocking look on her face.

'Midnighters really exist… huh?!'

'W-wait but why do they want to kill me?'

As she was thinking of that she suddenly remembered Damien's words.

'But what if… they hurt her instead? After all she is a Starborne too…'

'Is it because I am a Starborne?'

'But why do they want to kill me for just being a Starborne?'

Anna didn't know what to do so she just started to follow the group of assassins

Soon the assassins reached her window and entered her room through it.. Just as the leader's eyes fell on Anna's sleeping body he commanded

"You two move towards the door" The leader said as he pointed at two of the hooded figures

"Mandy.. Use your pets to check the outside" The leader said to the hooded figure who had controlled the mouse.

"Okay.."

The leader walked towards the bed Anna was lying on and looked at her.

"Hah… it's the most important thing" He took a vial containing greenish-blue liquid and started to move towards Anna's head.
