Chapter 1: Just Two Assassins
You are having a nightmare involving your family, where your village is burning as you reached out to your sister before she is consumed by the flames.
You woke up and panted as you looked around and found yourself in a room that you rented last night. You looked at your arm and saw that another spot of metal has appeared while you were sleeping.
"Damn. I better get moving."
You got up and left the room, heading for an area in the market selling vehicles, where you bought a motorcycle and began heading outside of the gates as they open for other vehicles leaving.
"You leaving?" you heard a familiar voice ask.
You turned around to see Akame standing a few feet away from yourself.
"Yeah. The New Order won't be killing itself any time soon."
Akame: "Agreed. You also heading to Argus?"
"Yeah. It's the closest city, and I know New Order Commanders will be there for some depraved part."
Akame: "I'm on a mission that involves that party as well. Mind if I come?"
"If you got money to pay for fuel."
Akame: "I do."
You gestured to Akame to get on and before driving away. After a few hours, you eventually made it to a walled city.
Akame: "There's Argus. I know a hidden path in."
You followed Akame's instructions to get through an old tunnel system that lead both in and out of the city. You soon ended up in an abandoned underground station and hid the bike as you headed for above ground.
You stuck to the shadows and eventually got on top of a large building, where you looked and saw the large city of Argus that surrounded yourselves.
"Look at these people," you said. "They prefer to indulge in selfish desire. I don't condemn that, just how they prefer to go to such extremes."
Akame: "I understand. I have the same thought."
"Akame, I remember that name. There were a bunch of wanted posters and such."
Akame: "Yep. I'm part of a group called Night Raid. To put it simply, we're assassins that go after High-ranked targets. Maybe after the party, I could introduce your to them."
"I think I'd be interested in that," you chuckled.
The two of you jumped off the building and headed for a party where many of their targets will be gathered.
