“I swear it was for the Order’s outmost interest-- there’s a snake!It.. It’s not me”, the cry that seems to be inaudible to the the cold-blooded and emotionless executioner that was dispatched by the High Order. Towering the respected grey haired man who is on his knees is a shadow seems to be unmoved. The strong wind and the storm overwhelms the scream and plea of the man with tears flowing from the amethyst orb that was once an epitome of strength, unmoved and always decisive , now goggling with fear for his life; a trembling body that can’t seek the strength to stand up against the shadow.

‘I.. I didn't do anything against the order,, I just...'

The trembling voice that hopes for salvation but the shadow just stared at him .Right Eyes as cold as the color of the ocean at summer time, lifeless almost souless that it didn't bat a lash, just blankly gawking at the person who it considers as insignificant.

“The o-order i..is--”, he stopped pleading when he noticed the left eye of the shadow, it was like the color of a rose soaked in blood. He then knew that the person they sent for his head was the Order’s killing machine. A phantom who long time ago abandoned all emotions. The last strand of hope that he was holding on snapped. If only a Valkyrie is towering him and not the puppet of the organization there could've been a chance of escape for him to plead for a trial or mercy. He then just resigned to whatever fate has stored for him, regretting the trust that he gave to one of the gods.

The assassin didn’t give a damn for whatever the last words of a lifeless puppet and just swiftly cut the throat of the assignment. Orders are orders, not that it cared but it’s an instinct to be followed, no need to think but just kill. The shadow just whispered with a cold apathetic voice through the covered mouth “A marionette doesn't go against its puppeteer"

As the shadow hurried to the window where it entered, it jumped from the third floor of the mansion feeling nothing of the accomplishment for mission but just wanted to return to Gehenna, the place of peace and the only place in this world that the shadow belonged. In the darkness of misery ,in the cold room that is home.
