(OOC: And so, with my relative absence, on both posting and the boards as a whole, I'm back. Made a promise to Lighter that I'll get things started between that last dead thread again this weekend, when all the test crap school threw at us was over. So, here I am, and without further ado, the continuation.)
The armored man stumbled his way back into the assassins town, looks of tire, annoyance, and grumpiness very apparent on his face. The encounter between him and his furture boss left marks and bruises, on his person at least. He found a nearby bench and sat down, his head hung in utter hopelessness. Even in the smallest of things, he could not find peace, he could not find a place in which to stop and catch his breath.
In a few short, brutal minutes, he had made the worst decisions of his life. And he had no idea on how to get himself out the crater he dug himself in...
He stood up, and walked towards his quarters within the main building. His thoughts began to stray. With this trial over, he would either be killed or kicked out. Or, by some amazing act, he would pass. Either way, he was sure he wouldn't be staying here for long. If he failed, he would be back to his hometown, and starting another life, and if he passed, then he would probably be sent on some assasssination mission or other. He looked around.
Stepping into his complex, the apartment was decent. Within was a small cooking area, a table, a bathroom, a guest room, and a spacious bedroom, complete with compartments for all his clothing, armor, and guns. A few windows gave a view to a sunny outside of the town center, plaza, the walls, and the forests beyond. The door had a painted steel look to it, while the walls were all white.
Better than the standard quarters back home. Kent thought. Then again, this isn't military I'm dealing with here. Nice to know there are some benefits to this.
It made leaving seem all the more difficult. It annoyed him. It was as if either outcome would make him miss something. Pushing these jaded thoughts aside, he made his way back to the plaza, expecting his employer. His eyes were looking in all possible directions, his mind thinking about all possibilities of attack, lest his boss decide to continue this stupid game of cat and mouse...
