Aura Assassin

Chapter 1

A man was sitting in his desk, trying to force his thoughts away from what he thought was truly inevitable. "No!" The man exclaimed at himself fiercely. I have taken every precaution, I will not fail as the others have. "I am the leader of the most powerful organization in the world. I am invincible!" Sure, the organization had had some set-backs, but all organizations did at one time or another, right? They would bounce back from this, he would find new generals he could place his trust in, they would re-build their bases, they would come back stronger and better than ever.

The man had finally convinced himself of the fact and leaned back, relaxing into his chair more completely. His thoughts turned to all his generals and other high-ranking officials they had had in the organization. It started about a year ago. They were becoming more powerful by the minute, recruiting hundreds of people on a weekly basis, the ex-members of teams that had once graced the regions, as well as other criminals from lowly thugs to high-stake bank robber's and then some. People streamed into the new organization with incredible speed.

Recently however, there had been far too many set-backs. Men killed, bases destroyed, operations that had been planned out for months being stopped with little to no effort, as if the enemy had known what they had planned from the start. It was far from simply being bad luck, and no matter how hard he tried, he simply could not push the rumors out of his head. The man sighed in frustration, his view on things taking a complete U-turn as he continued where he left off earlier, brooding over all the mishaps and setbacks.

The rumors where something to consider. The more he thought about it the more unreal it seemed, but at the same time, it could be one of the only explanations. Rumors such as this one had been started before, never any real proof to them, but always at times where things happening made them just believable enough to spread.

A knock on the door brought the man out of his thoughts quickly, he jumped in his seat and his hand automatically went to where a small dagger was hidden on his belt. He searched the room for a few moments before realizing it was only an intern, bringing him his morning coffee. His hand relaxed as he moved it away from the hidden dagger on his belt.

How perfect his own personal headquarters were. Based in an office in a tall business building, a business in which even he did not even know the name of. The office had been vacant for several months, and in such a big business he had been able to move into the office without stirring up any questions. They few people who noticed would simply assume he worked for the business, having no reason to believe otherwise. The true headquarters of his organization would be simply too obvious. Having a secret office in a place no one would ever expect a leader of a large organization to be was simply perfect.

His enemies would never find him there, they would never even spare a thought to him being outside of his giant base. His enemies... Those damn Aura Guardians. They would always interfere with his plans. They would strut around believing they were a gift to mankind. Interfering in things that had absolutely nothing to do with them. Sticking their noses where they didn't belong. The man took a deep breath, the Aura Guardians would fall like all the rest that stood in his way. No one could stop him, and no one would.

Shaking his head, he walked towards the door, another bonus of working in a large business building, the interns brought him drinks, food, and mostly whatever he wanted while he was busy working.

Unlocking the door, and opening it, he put on his best face, doing his best to keep up the facade that he was a simple business man. "Hello there young man, how are you doing this beautiful morning?" he asked the intern in a voice that could make most anyone believe that he actually cared.

"I'm doing good Sir. I brought you your morning coffee. Is there anything else you need?" the young intern asked, after handing the freshly made, hot cup of coffee over to the man.

"Oh, no thank you son, lots of work to do, afraid a coffee is all I'll have time for this morning."

"Of course Sir." The young man smiled slightly at being dismissed, and without another thought, turned on his heel and walked away, dreams of rising in the business and having boys bring him coffee dancing in his head.

The man closed the door and took a sip of the coffee. "Yukk!" he spat, spitting the coffee in his mouth straight into the garbage. He observed the liquid closely, finally deciding that no matter how hard he tried, he would never like coffee, he sat the mug on his desk.

He felt a cool breeze and looked over toward the window, realizing that it was slightly opened. He stared at it for awhile before he quickly scanned every inch of the room, he searched every corner, under his desk, behind the ugly plant that had been there when he moved in. He found nothing and shook off the feeling, muttering something about being paranoid.

He walked over to the window, looking out he could see the entire city below him. He was on the eighty-ninth floor, the thought of that easily erasing any thought of an intruder, "Damn wind." he muttered as he closed the window.

Turning around he took a step back towards his desk, not knowing that in his incredibly thorough search of the room, he had made a mistake that so many people make, not knowing that when he neglected to look up, he had lost the game, and not knowing that the step he just took towards his desk, would be his last.

Not a sound was made as the man fell backward, a blade protruding from his neck, and a cloaked figure, who had been hanging from the tall chandelier, on top of him, the blade protruding from his neck, was also the one that was coming from the cloaked figures wrist. The man's last thoughts were of how the rumors had been true, an Aura Assassin had come, and how years of his hard work and sweat, was now gone.

The cloaked figure stared at the man's unmoving body, the strange blue blade, whose origin came from the cloaked figures wrist, disapeared in an instant, the only proof it had been there at all was the hole that went through the dead man's neck.

The figure got off the man and pulled out a device from his pocket, after pressing a few buttons in quick succession he held the device to his ear.

"Riley." The voice on the other end of the device answered.

"It's done." Was all the cloaked figure said.

"Good, good," the voice on the other end seemed to be deep in thought. "meet me at the island. We have much to discuss."

The cloaked firgure closed the device and without a backwards glance, he opened the window. Staring at the horizon, where the sun was just coming into full view, he crouched on the sill of the window.

As quickly as he had gotten onto the ledge, he stood up, arms spread wide, and allowed himself to fall forward. Away from the office with the body, which would be removed before anyone would notice, and away from the last person on a long list that had been set to end a war before it even started. The war against the quickly growing, and extremely dangerous organization was over. He had to wonder what that would mean for him.

As he fell further, gravity working with him as he hurdled closer and closer to the earth, the only thoughts on his mind were about his future.

So? I know, short, but its's first chapter, and i thought this would be the best way to start it :D
