Prologue

Kiyla prov

My name is Kiyla Sonya. My parents were killed when I was young, because of I was different. The other shapeshifters didn't believe in humans and shapeshifters being together so they they killed my family right in front of me. I was so scared and didn't no what to do. I got away with my life but only to end up alone and scared.

I've killed many people and I was only five years old. Like a crazed animal I killed everything that I came in contact with just to stay alive, but really all I wanted to do was die. I couldn't though if I did I would betray my parents. They gave up there life so I could live, but to live a life of pain.

I was different from the others. Stuck between worlds. Half shapeShifter half human. Rejected by both sides. My life was hell always alone and hated by all, till I was taken in by Lady Wolf. She was part of and assassins group called The Nights of Hell.

She found me alone and scared in an ally looking for food. She took me in and raised me as her own. tough me to fight and to change my anger into strength.

She would always to tell me I learned faster than any of the others she took in. I guessed it was caused by my will to live and to help the others who were mistreated cause they were different. I vowed that I would kill the people that killed my parents and any others that got in my way.

By the age of ten I was the best and strongest assassin in my group. I was even stronger than the oldest and strongest member of the group, the leader, Lady Wolf's mate, Alpha Bonzay.

Everyone called me 'Shadow', it was a nickname I picked up, because every kill I made no one knew how it happened. Not even the target saw me. I was just....A shadow in the night. Soundless and fasted with no fears of death.

I was a lone hunter of the night many fear me others hate me, but I don't care what they say and do. I work alone and never get close to anyone. I like it that way no one to care about no one to get hurt because of me, the was it should be.

Be scared very scared

Kiyla prov

I jump from building top to building top. My coal black hair that comes down to my lower back was in a fishtale braid. Eyes the color of sapphires always watching for an attacker. My natural tan skin hardly seen under my mask that only covers my nose and rose red lips. My bangs cover my eyes slightly. My leather black jumper clings to my slime curved body. My hug breast being squished by my suit but I don't care. My favorite sword tight in my grip. My nail at full length. Ears shifted to my panther ears to increase my hearing and my tail to help with balance.

I listen for my target who runs as fast as they can all they know is something is after them not who. I spot him at last, making the kill fast and easy. Blood goes everywhere his once blond hair turns red from the blood that is released from the crack in his head. He doesn't even get off a scream.

'Another east kill,' I think to my self. 'I wish it was just a little more of a challenge for me' but it never is. I head back to HQ to get my pay for the night. It's the same every night get my targets name where he or she is then strike. In only eleven years I have made my way to the top of the list of best assassin of my time at ten I was even better then Alpha Bonzay, the leader of the group.

Walking in to HQ everyone stairs manly the newbies. Pal a old guy with gray hair and a bird on his shoulder was talking about me to one of the new ones.

'Who is that,' the boy asked? 'Haven't you ever heard of the Shadow, boy'o?' Pal reply's in a question of his own. 'Yea, that's her? I thought it was a guy? Their's no way that's the Shadow. No way at all.' he said shaking his head. 'Well it is boy'o. I wouldn't mess with her if I was you just watch what happens.'

As I'm about to walk out someone puts a hand on my shoulder. That was something everyone who new me new to never do. A drunk and scratchy voice comes from behind me, "What the rosh ...hicp... sexyyy why down't you show ...hicp... me whats under that jumer you werring" His terrible language on top of the slurred words made me want to be sick.

I grabbed his arm and flip him over me and make him land on his back. Pinning him down with my knee I draw my sword and threaten to stab him with it, and trust me I would of if it was not for the fact that Lady Wolf walked into the room, her long brown hair pulled in to a ponytail and gray eyes and tall built stair at me in disapproval of what I did. I remove my knee from him and straighten. I give him one good kick in the stomach hoping it will bruise and turn and leave, putting away my sword as I go.

I've always hated when that happens, and it happens a lot. Lets just say they only do it once and they had enough of me. I keep things in check, when it's needed.

What Now

 

 

Lady Wolf prov.

I was working on the computer when I heard all the ruckus coming from outside by the bar area. I figured this would of happened tonight with all the newbies we have, and Kiyla being here tonight like always. They never learn to leave her alone do they. I told them not to mess with her, but they don't listen.

I get up knowing if I don't someone was going to get hurt bad and I know for sure it wont be Kiyla getting hurt ether. I walk out to find Kiyla with her knee on some guys chest suffocating him. With her sword ready to strike. She looks up at me and knows to stop.

She gets to her feet then kicks him in the side. I know then that he is going to be very bruised in the morning. I turn to everyone else who looks like they were in shock. I smile and say "it ok people he's fine. Go back to what y'all were doing."

I walk over to the guy and help him up saying "I told you and everyone else not to mess with her unless you want to get killed. Is that what you want?" He shook his head and stuttered "Thhh-aattss her? Are youuu... crazy having someone like... her here? She c-c-could have killed m-mee."

I grinned and say openly "I can't kick her out she is the best we have. She has also been here longer than you and she was five at your level. You want to now something else? Next time i'll let her kill you."

Letting him fall to the ground I turn to the rest of the group and yell "If you don't no who that was then learn. Ask a few people that have known her for a while they'll tell you some stories about her. Just to sum it up that was Kiyla Sonya also known as Shadow. Our best assassin you mess with her you die unless of course I stop her which I usually don't make it on time so just don't mess with her. Got it? Good."

 

School life

Kiyla prov.

Being an assassin at night and school during the day is a hard life, but it is my life. To most my life would be crazy, but I grew up in this life its apart of me. I walk through the school like a ghost or shadow as i am called by the other assassins. I live in a quiet town. No one knows who I am at school nor at the HQ! I like it that way so no one can figure out who I am!

I woke to my alarm clock going off its high pitch beep is so annoying. As I reach out to turn it off only to miss and fall of the bed. I know smart right. I head to the kitchen and start some coffee.

I headed to the shower my bathroom is normal for an apartment. Once i'm striped and in the shower i lathered my self in soup then washed off. I got out and got dressed in black ripped jeans a gray tank top with a black button up that was only buttoned half way. with my black and gray converses to mach. I braided my long black hair into a fish tail that goes down to the middle of my back.

Once dressed I grabbed some coffee three sugars and vanilla creamer, witch is my favorit. I headed out. I got to school just minutes before the bell. I pull up on my black and blue motorcycle that I bought a few years back with the money I got from a mission.

I got off my bike and took off my helmet and headed inside to my locker to put away my stuff and then to my first class only to find my seat
