Leah whistled a light tune as she walked down the streets of Rose Garden, anybody watching her demeanor would take her for a normal tourist that had come to participate in the Midsummer festivities. With her long black hair tied back in a braid, the sheen of her hair almost red in the bright glows of the lacrima lampposts, Leah didn’t look like she posed a threat. She made no attempt to steer clear of anyone as she walked down the street, bumping shoulders and elbows. It drew a few angry looks but upon looking at her, most would then ignore it and continue on their way. In their eyes, they only saw a young innocent girl. Unlikely to be a threat, and would leave a bad aftertaste if they were to bully her.
The number of people began to grow as she neared the plaza in Rose Garden, where a carnival had been set up for the people of Rose Garden and other places to enjoy the longest night of the year. Despite being an assassin, she wasn’t at all detached to life and its happenings, be it sad or happy. She smiled as she watched the parents with their children, dating couples, aged husbands and wives, or just groups of friends enjoying themselves at the various stands and booths. A lady with her daughter walked past her, the young girl probably five years old and holding a cotton candy stick in her right hand as she skipped along, her other hand held tight in her mother’s grasp.
A shadow loomed above them, and Leah tilted her head back to see what was it. And she moved swiftly in the next second. She immediately moved into action, lunging at the lady and her daughter, pushing the mother away while Leah wrapped her arms around the young girl and rolled to one side. Behind her, a fireball was shot into the ground, charring the area around its area of impact. Leah groaned, having used her body to protect the young girl’s, saving her from any damage. The mother came over to pull them both up, dusting her daughter before asking if Leah was alright. But when she turned around, the petit assassin was already gone.
The female assassin was already climbing up a wall, which involved running at full speed towards it, and making a vertical run before pulling herself up the ledge. On the roof, above the crowd, Leah could see trouble brewing as a portal of green and yellow lights appeared out of nowhere above the carnival.
“That fireball was definitely not part of the show,” Leah mumbled to herself as she went nearer, moving across the rooftops.
