Chapter 1 - chapter 1

I wake up hearing a faint knock on the door that's being to drownd out by the rain drops hitting my huts metal roof.

I got up and walked through my dirty little house and opened up the door for my boss a man with a black long coat on was standing in the rain outside.

He looked at me with his black eyes and said we got a job for you you'll pay off two hundred this time.

What's the details then.

With no words he just handed me a photo of some guy I have to get rid of.

He walked away and I closed the door and went back to sleep.

I had a dream a dream about the first day I remember I was five years old and in a cold and calm voice the guy said You're dad owned me a lot of money around... 120,000,000 so you'll have to pay it for me I can't remember anything else because what he is my live now.

I opened up my eyes and looked across the room and out the window and saw that the sun was shining through all the dust in the room.

I got up form my mattress rubbing the top of my head and looked in the mirror I rubbed my blue eyes and brushed my black hair. Then I put on some black and white shoes and a brown coat with some black pants and walked out the boor.

Outside was wet and cold even though the sun is out I walked down the road to makwill street I live on the top of the hill close to town. When I got to town I saw an old man with a white shirt, black pants, brown eyes and white hair called out to my asking for help with he's bags.

I didn't want to help him with he's bags but he couldn't stop shouting help an old man in need. So I went over there to help him. My with my very skinny arms can't handle one bag in was pure pain but we walked down the road to he's house. I bought the bags into the house and when it was done I was ready to leave but my stomach made a very strange sound and the old man headed it.

Do you want something to eat son.

No I'm fine thank you.

No said the old man you helped me and I'll help you sit down I'll make lunch.

I have to get rid of someone but I also have to eat something I mean I haven't eaten in days.

The old man went to the kitchen and started to make pasta I don't know what kind of pasta but he seems busy.

The old man landed out some ingredients 200g(7 oz), 100g (3.5 oz) pancetta (cured pork cheek), two large eggs yolks +1 whole egg, 50g 1 and a half cups of grated pecorino romano, some freshly ground black pepper and some salt for the pasta water.

The old man boiled the pasta in the salt water at the same time he stated to cook the pancetta in a skillet over medium heat it was cooked till crispy it was cooking for around 5-7 minutes. The old man mixed the the 3 egg yolks, the whole egg, cheese and black pepper. Then he add the drained pasta to the skillet with the pancetta over a low heat and added the cheese mixture, and some pasta water. Then the old man took out a lunch box and and put the hot pasta in it.

You look like your in a hurry so here you go.

The old man gave me the lunch box and I sided kicked him in the stomach but he stopped it I jumped over his head into the kitchen and grabbed a knife.

No the table the boy stood up and turned his head with a sad look on his face.

I came to kill you shadow hunter.

So that was there game this time said the hunter.

So this isn't the first time they've come for you said the assassin.

You don't want to do it.

Because you're crying you fool you don't have to do as they tell you to.

The assassin fell to his knees this old man is the only person that cared to give me food everyoneelse just look at me with ugly faces or the other kids laugh at me I can't kill the only person who help me.
