”White Rose.” The man muttered underneath his breath. Staring at the black masked girl in front of him. Her red eyes penetrating him. No trace of emotion can be seen.It was only that pair of chillingly cold eyes that revealed killing intent. Fear crept to his very bones as his blood turned cold.

”Who sent you?”

”Who sent me? No one. There's only one thing I want.And that is your life.”

”Do you want money? I can give any prize.Just name it.” The man had no choice but to bring up money. But the woman was unmoved causing him to sweat even more.His lower half wanted to pee from fear but he stops himself.

”Money?” The woman laughed. Her laughed sent chills in his spine. She kept playing at the white rose in her hand.

”I have more than you have.” She said.Looking at him evilly.

”Then why are you here...to kill me?”

”'Cause this is fate.King Yama wants to meet you.”

Before the man could even react.A white rose suddenly flew towards him, slitting his throat. His body falls on the ground. Even in his death. His eyes reflected her figure.

Looking at the dead body below her. She revealed a smirk as he kicks his body on the side. The rose falls down in the dead man's pool of blood. Still, her smirk never faltered.

She looked up to see the moon shining brightly.The same moon who had witnessed her countless killings.

With a flick of her cloak, it fluttered as its hits the night breeze.

Morning has come.Many people surrounded an alley. They saw a dead man lying on the ground.Girls scream while parents covered their children's eyes.

Another one has died, with the same assassin...called White Rose.

This is the tenth man. Just like the others,he was one of the officials.

”General, what are we going to do? The killings had increase again.” A man stated to the handsome general.His serious face had a look of being troubled.

”We don't have any clue about the assassin besides the white rose.”

”General, if we don't catch the assassin. I'm afraid there would be more killings in the future.”

”Don't worry.We will catch the assassin.” He said reassuring his people.

He walks down through the street. Looking for any other clues but find none.

”General, the Emperor is calling for you.” One of his men said anxiously. They know why the general was called by the emperor.

”I will go now.Report to me if you have any clues.”

”Yes, General.”

The General walks in the Imperial Hall. He saw the Emperor waiting for him sitting in his throne.
