“What? Why would I turn ya away. You did your job.”

Lilith was caught off guard for a moment. Although she didn’t want to she gave this slim exactly what he wanted. He showed her hand as a novice and Slung was known to jump at the fresh meat of the underworld. A wide grin spread across his obese face.

“Don’t be so surprised. So you killed someone extra. You eliminated who I asked you too. I don’t care what it takes. Here’s the question though little one. Do you care that you killed that girl?"

Lilith still wasn’t sure how she felt. The first contact she had picked up in the Citadel underworld and she had managed to mess it up. Eliminate a cop that was acting up, arresting many important smugglers and dealers. It wasn’t a hard job, just one that Lilith knew she’d have to do carefully. So it had taken a couple days. Watching him from a distance as he went about his daily life. Learning where and when he went and what he usually did. Finally on the third day Lilith had gotten into position and utilizing her Ebony Bow had managed to take down the cop.

Just despite the distance being chosen to put her at enough of a distance to get away it had always proven to limit her sight. She hadn’t noticed that the cop was speaking to someone else in front of him. Was it her line of sight that had obscured the young girl her own age or was it her nervousness that had limited her? Either way her arrow of ki had pierced through the chest of the cop continuing forward and into the girl as well. It wasn’t her intention and Lilith had been forced to flee knowing that she hadn’t just made a mistake on her first contact as an assassin, but she’d also killed someone that no one wanted dead.

"It's as you say. The target was taken care of regardless."

She had thought that Slunge may be upset at her especially after the bartender had made it seem as such, but the grotesque crime boss didn’t seem to care. In fact the matter seemed completely beneath him now as he picked up a small container and tossed it over. Lilith reaches out and catches the package although Slunge really didn’t even try to make it reach her. Lilith knew that she had to keep her mouth shut right now, but this man really was pushing Lilith to the point that she felt an unbelievable urge to shoot him.

“Your payment from the last one is inside. You’ll find the next target’s information in there as well. This one I want taken out by tomorrow night at the latest. No more thinking about dipping your toes in the filthy water. You’ve killed for me now which means you are in the water of the underworld missy. So go get this done and your payment will be waiting again when you return should you succeed.”

Reaching the correct floor and finding his room didn’t take more than another twenty minutes although Lilith could feel the stress on his knees and thighs after climbing the hundred floors of stairs or so. She was in fit physical shape, but damn this building was tall. Lilith had a little issue though that she hadn’t thought about on the way here. The hallway she was in right now that her target stayed on, the lights were always kept on which meant that there was no darkness for her to utilize. For this reason Lilith wandered the hall going from one side to another and eventually found a layout. Thankfully what she sought was only on the floor below at the other end. Another few minutes and Lilith reached the circuit breaker room for the five floors above and below.

Although the door to the room was metal and tough after a few hits Lilith managed to break it down. She had to be quick now though as that made quite a bit of noise and no doubt the building staff would be altered soon. Getting inside Lilith found the breaker, opened the box and began to flip everything off. It took less than a full three seconds and afterwards she could feel the difference. The floor she was on accompanied by those above and below were all engulfed in darkness. Channeling her ki Lilith would sink down into the dark that laid upon the floor and transfer herself through all of the darkness that enveloped the floors.

Moving from one floor to the next with no sign of her physical body Lilith disobeyed the common laws of the universe as she directed herself directly into the room of her target. Seeming to almost pop out of the floor itself within his room Lilith looked around and could see the entrance to her target’s bedroom. This was her domain; the darkness hid nothing from her. Sending a small amount of ki into her pure eyes of dark ink Lilith gazed into the bedroom and could see her target sleeping. His ki was average, nothing special although his body gave off dozens of large black dots. She wasn’t ridding the universe of anything more than greed.

The darkness of the room clung to Lilith’s left arm as she channeled her ki and from the darkness a bow of ebony was formed. Rising her bow up in front of her Lilith held the weapon horizontally and began to pull back the string. An arrow as dark as space itself was formed and once it was pulled back to full draw it was released and so too was the life that this greedy sleaze clung too. A ki arrow delivered straight through the skull. Very few entities in the universe would be able to survive such a fate and this average pile of waste was not among them. Now the tricky part came though. Lilith searched for the next thirty minutes throughout this fools apartment trying to find any sort of tool that could store information.

Finally after nearly forty five minutes of constantly searching Lilith managed to find a small techno drive inside the mouth of her target. The small thin piece was insanely hard to find as it was designed to look like a razor and had been stuck to the roof of her target’s mouth. She had to go now though as the lights were back on and she could hear the staff in the hallway checking on all of the residents. Keeping the lights off in this room Lilith cleared her mind and after a moment could feel the presence of darkness below her. Merging into it once again Lilith dropped down into the room below and found that thankfully the resident had already left. Doing her best to stay quiet Lilith dismissed her bow and armor returning to her natural appearance. Taking off her shoes and exiting this room. Now all anyone would see is the facade of a young girl leaving after a night of fun and she would return to Slunge for her payment.
