• I stood on the top of the building, waiting for my target to appear. It would be a while before she appeared. I saw a glint of metal. It was a mirror, so to pass some time I observed myself. I was of medium height, short, messy auburn hair, hazel eyes. I wasn't exactly handsome, but I wasn't ugly. I was wearing a tight black shirt with my number, twelve, emblazoned in small gray letters on the front. I didn't exactly have a name. My organization, Shiro, had erased my memories, made my real identity legally dead, and put me to work.

    She appeared. Long golden hair, dark sunglasses, designer clothes. It made me sick. Her name, or stage name, rather, was Ami. She was a superstar. She sold out concerts like I tied my shoes. I went over my mission in my head once more. At 15:07, she was to exit the building. At 15:09, I was to unload a bullet into her head. I checked my watch. It was only 15:00. She was probably only out here for a breath of air. She was filming her new drama, which I didn't exactly care to find the name of. Apparently the drama would be a giant hit.

    I was correct. After about a minute, she walked back inside the building. My muscles relaxed. I inhaled, then exhaled. Inhale, exhale. In, out. I waited another couple of minutes. I glanced at my watch. 15:05. Only two minutes left. I sighed. This was the first time I wanted to kill a target.

    She deserved to die. A diva, having never done an ounce of work in her life. She had angered the Boss's son, which automatically made her my enemy. I checked my watch again. 15:06. What seemed to be a lifetime had only been about a minute.

    She walked out. She was talking on her cellphone, waiting for her chaffeur. She seemed to be yelling at the person she was on the phone with. Whatever. My assingment was to kill this skank, not to care about her problems. I glanced at my watch one last time. 15:09. Everything was perfect. She was in the position I needed her to be in, my gun was fully loaded, just perfect. I raised my gun and pulled the trigger.
