The warning.
"Wake up, you swine!", a soldier shouts in a makeshift prison inside a cave filled with dim candle lights in the corners of the dark.
" I said wake up!", the soldier shouts again as he bangs his iron club in the iron bar door and shines a torch towards the door. A dark human figure sits on the floor corner as his chained arms makes clinks against the floor. The dark figure raises his head and the soldier snarls,
"Someone is here to see....". Before he can finish, a knife slices through the soldiers left arm, and the torch falls along with the soldiers arm as blood spills on to the walls.
"Arghhhh!" screams the soldier in pain and turns around to find a black haired girl with a cold look and red eyes. She was dressed in a shabby plain cloak and held a sharp knife.
"You! My arm! How did you get here? I told you to wait outside!" The soldier shivers and shouts and grips his arm and cries in pain as he trembles on the floor stained with blood.
A continuous ringing bell is suddenly heard above them .
"Are we under attack?", the struggling soldier thinks as the girl moves forward and kicks the locked iron door down.
"My lord, I apologize for the delay!', the lady says as she bows. The dark figure gets up as he orders,"I thought I said no survivors!" and starts walking out as his chains continue to drag on the floor.
"Right away, my lord." The girl replies and walks towards the soldier who struggles to move as he cries in his own blood on the floor.
"Arghhh!!!!" The soldier screams as the lady stabs her knife on his leg to stop his from moving.
"Please do not kill me! I have a family! Please spare me!", the soldier cried as silence slowly creeps in.
"Ruby!" Shouts the prisoner as he walks out the door and reveals his cold dark blue eyes and shaggy long hair, parted from the middle and his shabby dress.
"Yes, my lord." Ruby answers as she holds firmly the soldier's forehead before cracking his head and ending his life.
They walk up the cave's stair way and reveal dead soldiers on the sideways leading to a dim corridor above the cave.
He comes out a dim room again ,and outside was a road which lead to a far away city.
As he finds a dozen dead soldiers in the room , four masked assassins appears before him and bends down shouting ,"my lord!'.
"This ones alive"! , Ruby continues looking towards a soldier struggling to breath with a stabbed abdomen. As she moves closer to end his life the shabby guy who was addressed as their lord stops her saying , " let him live!", and moves closer towards him and says , " its dawn soon , the alarm has been rung , reinforcements will be here soon , when they come and ask who did this?". He smiles and replies " tell them to leave this island back to their own lands or we will come for them, for the island's Elites fort!",
He laughs as he moves outside where a carriage awaits for him and enters it along with Ruby and rides off in a far away forests.
The assassins vanishes as the sun shines dim on the room and the alarms bells of the station fades away.
As the horses gallops with the carriage in a dense forests , Ruby asks her lord ," my lord ! Why..'
"Ruby , we're not in a mission now , you can now address me normally". Her lord interrupts who stared at the dark forest.
" I'm sorry ,Lord Den , " Ruby continues, " i just wondered why you left that soldier alive , we have never left anyone alive these past missions."
Den smiled and looked towards her and replies , " No more small works, from now on , the real mission begins. I left him a warning for the others. I left him a... " he pauses and stares at his huge mansion , which was about to reach , and continues , " challenge!".
