"Your changing Iris" My 11 year old sister Daisy tells me as I'm walking into my room.

"So is the rest of the world" I say closing my door

I can never tell them the truth. EVER.

 I sigh walking over to my vanity in the corner of my bedroom and I roll up my sleeve of my dress to clean my cut on my right arm. 

Shit it's getting infected....

I grab a cloth from the bathroom and start to clean it grinding my teeth.

oww oww oww.

"Open up Iris!" Daisy calls from the other side of the door.

Maybe if I ignore her she will go away? Oh well if she finds out.. I could make up a lie.. But then she would be the only one I trust with this secret...

No such luck Daisy walks in. She looks around then her eyes land on my cut. It's a long cut from my wrist to my elbow really deep too. Almost to the muscle.

'What the heck did you do?" She half whispers. She walks in closing the door behind her.

"I... Cut it when I was walking in the forest" I lie I'm such a bad liar

"Uh huh sure" She says walking closer taking a long look at it. "If I have to guess it came from a knife. Not a kitchen knife but a dagger" 

Why is she so smart?

"Do you really want the truth?" I ask narrowing my eyes at her.

"I have since I caught that knife in your hand when I was 9" She says with a smile.

"Damn I forgot about that" I say with a smile of my own. "Ok.. So the truth.. I'm part of the Night Stalkers" 

"Wait.. Like the Night Stalkers from like 100 years ago?" Daisy says. I can see the gears turning in her head.

"Ya.. They never disassembled" I tell her. "They were always around"

"Huh. When I first saw the knife my first thought was Serial killer" She says laughing.

"I mean you were close enough" I note " I do kill people.."

"Well I'm sure there's a reason" Daisy says.

"Ya there is." I say getting up and walk to the corner of my room and lift up the floor panel inside is a huge hole filled with my assassin black clothes, knives, guns and medical stuff. I grab the medical kit then put the floor panel back on. 

I walk back to the vanity and put disinfect on it.

"Good enough" I mutter

"No Iris it's not! If you do that it will never heal!" Daisy complains grabbing my arm and grabbing stitches.

"What are you doing?"

"Stitching it up so it heals" She says threading the needle.

"How do you know what your doing?" I ask

"I just do" She says starting to stitch it up. I hiss in pain.

"ow ow ow" I complain.

"Oh shut up if you can do what ever you do on your secret missions you can handle stitches" after about 20 minutes shes done.

"How did you do that?" I ask running my finger down the stitches. " You barely left a mark." 

"Magic" She sasses. I roll my eyes closing the medical kit putting back in its place under the floor boards. "So The Night Stalkers? And how did the princess get into them?" 

"Well come sit down and Ill tell you the tale" I say dramatically tapping  my king sized 4 poster bed it has beautiful brown poles and frame but white silk curtains with white sheets, pillows and blankets. She walks over and sits down beside me her yellow dress everywhere. I look her in her baby blue eyes. All three of us, Me, Daisy and our 4 year old sister Rosie. Daisy and I also have blond, blond hair like bleach blond whereas Rosie has more of a dirty blond.

"Ok so the story begins when I was 15. I was walking through the forest like any day. When I saw a man getting attacked by some gang of people The dude who was getting attacked was almost dead he looked me in the eyes and I swear he mouthed the word help. I panicked. So I grabbed the knife from in one of the gang men's pocket I still don't know how he didn't notice and then i stabbed him in the arm. He screamed so the rest of his gang members turned one guy walked up to me and had a knife in his hand he took mine so I again panicked and...Kicked him.. In the gut......." 

Daisy laughs. "Seriously?"

"Yes now shhh or I cant finish the story" Daisy's quite " after I kicked him the rest of the guys started to gang up on me I grabbed the knife from the dude I kicked and stabbed one guy in the arm, one in the leg, and knocked a guy unconscious with my fist. After they were all on the ground I ran to the other dude the half dead dude. I helped him up and he gave me instructions to his place. He brought me to the Night Stalkers hide out. The nurse took him away and the NS boss took me to questioning I answered all his questions and then the dude who was beat up answered some when they found out I knocked out a gang of 5 men they asked me to join them they told me about themselves I agreed." 

"Damn!" She says. I just smile.

"Ok now tell me about how you can stitch up so fast!" I say

"I've been practicing" Is all she tells me.

"And you call me secretive!" I laugh. "How about this.. Is it dangerous?"

" No. I don't think so" 

"Ok.... Well if it gets dangerous come tell me"

"Alright deal. Also you might want to change out of your dress... It's a little bloody.."

I look down at the dress it is bloody especially the sleeve. "Oh opps" is all I say walking over to my closet grabbing the first long sleeve dress I could find. A red one with a white tips at the sleeves it's also flaired.

"ow" I say because it pulled all the stitches.

"Here I'll do it" Daisy says taking the hair brush from me and gently brushes the tangles out. After the tangles are gone she puts my hair in a bun at the base of my neck.

"Thanks" I say when she's finished.

"I wish you would have told me sooner" She mumbles. 

"I wanted to" I assure her. 

"How did you manage with all of those cuts? I am sure you have more than that one." Daisy points to the cut.

"Actually that's my worst one yet." I tell her.

"Wow" 

"Yup. Well you better get ready for supper." I tell her.

"Alright." She looks down a little sad...

"Whats the matter?" I ask

"Nothing" She says quickly. But keeps her head lowish

"Head up princess or the crown slips" I tell her rearranging her yellow tiara so its back on her head, She smiles doing the same to me fixing my black tiara. 

"Ill do if you do" She says opening my door.

"You got yourself a deal" I answer as she walks out with a nod.
