Despite the events that transpired that night, the young assassins were determined to see their training to the end.For the next 4 weeks, along with their usual assassin training, they were both tasked to kill one target every night. And despite the gruesome act, they actually realised that the more they did it, the easier it became.By the end of the session, they were now able to kill their targets without any visible reaction. Once their parents saw this, they decided to give Eli and Eva their first official assignment.Under the early evening, inside an expensive looking apartment… The elevator doors to the penthouse on the top floor slides open but there was no one in it.A few seconds later, two masked faces emerge from the sides of the elevator, their purple eyes searching the hallway which was empty.The elevator doors began to close but Eli and Eva both dressed in the signature assassin attire quickly slip through them. They continued to move through the hallways, evading r
After joining Gwen, Alex, Alice and their other family friends, they all enjoy did a bit of catching up before taking the written exams.Luckily, for most of them, the exams were easy especially considering their heritage and resulting training. After the exams, they went out to eat and hang out before eventually being taken home by their parents or guardians.By the same time the next day, a new height of excitement was in the air because it was the day of the physical exams made only for the tron students joining the school.After a quick registration and meet up, the group of friends move into the large exam hall where others candidates had already started the activities.“Finally! I’ve been looking forward to this part for months.” Gwen said with a confident smirk that makes Alice laugh.“Yeah. Books and words are always boring.” Alice mumbled and Alex frowns at his sister.“Not all of them.” Alex mumbled and another figure throws an arm over his shoulder.Alex turns to the simila
By the end of the class, Alice and Alex both groan in embarrassment as Hana wraps them in a tight bear hug. “Did you two really think you could escape from me?” She asked as she snuggles them tighter.“Mum.” The twins grumbled and Eva laughs along with the others.“Why didn’t you tell us you were going to be our teacher, Aunty Hana?” Gwen asked as Hana releases her children to face the others.“Because I wanted to surprise you guys. I had to beg your parents to keep a secret until now.” She said with a smile that makes Gwen laugh.“But what about the Task force?” Alex asked and Hana smiles.“As of two weeks ago, I retired from my captain duty and handed it over to Aunty Kate. I still help her once a while but my main focus now is you guys.” Hana said.“So you’ve been planning this for some time?” Molly asked and Hana laughs.“More than just ‘some’ time. I actually applied for a teaching role when the school was still just an idea. But it was only until a few months ago, that I found o
A week later... back at Giants’ Academy, the third year class 1 students watch with rapt attention during combat class as Eva and Eli circle each other with wooden swords in their hands. The two then stop, their purple eyes fixed on each other’s before instantly launching at each other with a sword clash that sends sparks into the air. The both grunt as they began to trade sword swings, their forms, speed and techniques leaving the class in complete awe. After a dozen more strikes, Eva grunts as she thrusts her sword at Eli who narrowly dodges with some strands of his hair sliced off. “Got you.” Eva grumbled as she changes her stance, swinging her sword towards Eli’s back… but without even looking, Eli blocks her strike with his sword before quickly swinging his blade which knocks the sword out of Eva’s hand. Before she could even recover, she finds Eli’s blade now pressed against your neck. Once she sees the cocky look in his eyes, she sighs. “Looks like I still can’t beat you i
The sounds of chaos and distress rings through the prestigious Giant’s Academy. The security guards, teachers and some students work to fight against the evaders but unknown to them, a small group of friends were fighting their own battle.Eva glances back at Zeke and Alice both writhing in pain from the bleeding wounds. “Alice.” Alex said as he crouches down beside his sister and notes her injuries.“I’m… fine. Just… get out of… here.” Alice grumbled as she sits up before wincing from the pain.“Let me try something.” Alex mumbled as he placed a hand over wound and focuses his red energy into it. Alice cries out in pain as she feels something move in her body. “I have something. Is it a bullet?”“No.” Alex turns to Zeke who holds up a hand, revealing the small bloody projectile. “Finger-bones.” Alex mumbled and Zeke nods before wincing as he looks down at his leg which finally pushes out the second bone to begin healing. The sound of clashes draws their attention to Eva and the oth
“Mum!” Alex said with tear-filled eyes as he runs over to his mother’s side and hugs her tightly.She frowns as she feels his trembling body before turning as Eli and Alice land by her, each holding an unconscious child.Once Hana’s eyes catch Alice’s wound in particular, her eyes glowed brighter as she intensifies her gear, putting more pressure on Valentina… who begins to laugh. “So this is the power of the rumoured Reaper. It’s amazing.” Hana’s eyes widen as Valentina begins to stand, despite the intense pressure on her body.Hana increases her power even more, causing the ground beneath Valentina’s feet to immediately become a small crater but Valentina manages to stand on both feet and turn to Hana.“I’m guessing you’re one of the parasites Levi told me about.” Hana grumbled and Valentina smirks with hands on her hips.“That’s right. I am Valentina.” She said and Hana narrows her eyes.“Then that makes you the Spider’s second child… The Sin of Lust.” Hana said and Valentina’s ey
About 2 hours after Valentina’s disappearance…… Eva’s body remains still on the bed of a hospital room.With a sudden gasp, Eva shoots up, chest heaving with her purple eyes wide. “Eva.” She turns and finds her mother standing up from the chair some metres away.“Mum.” Eva mumbled as Alana wraps her arms around her tightly.“It’s okay, baby. You’re safe.” Alana said as she gives Eva’s forehead a kiss.“I was so scared.” Eva whimpered as she hugs back, her hands trembling a little and Alana snuggles her closer. The two remain in silent embrace for a few more minutes before finally pulling away.“How are you feeling? Any pain?” Alana asked as she searches her daughter’s body for injured but Eva just stares at her with worried eyes. “What’s wrong?” Alana asked as she meets Eva’s eyes.“Those men… They said that I was their target… And that woman…” Eva shakes her head a little at the memory of Valentina. “…She kept calling me her sister.” Alana frowns at Eva’s words which makes Eva even m
As the other sat at the meeting table, Eva notices some couple of empty seats which quickly became filled by realistic holograms of some of the other guardians and some important Index personnel directly related to the new Tron task force… including the current Index chairman.MJ throws a bubble-gum in her mouth before noticing how tense Eva now seemed. “Relax, Eva. It’s just us.” MJ whispered and Eva sighs.“I know. It just feels… different.” Eva whispered back because even though these were the same people who used to visit and play with her since she was a baby, the serious looks on their faces now was a bit too intense for her.Once Jake assures that they were ready, he nods at the more matured Callum Griffon in his early twenties who intertwines his fingers together with elbows placed on the table as he speaks.“Good afternoon everyone and thank you for your time today. We’ll try to end this as quickly as possible so you return to your duties.”“I certainly hope so.” Erina, the n
