The day is cold but the streets are crowded nonetheless. Near the Northwest part of the city was a small building with guards posted regularly around it. The building had recently been taken into protection by the Warrior Guild. The Guild had been without leadership for quite some time now but with the adoption of this new organization promising to weed out Hashshashin fighters, they finally found someone qualified to temporarily take the position.
He was scheduled to take a journey to Adenwar to brief new operatives for their service in the Uncharted Territories. But first there were several matters he had to attend in Lebonwaith.
He would be speaking in public about their mission in hopes of gaining support from the people. But the Assassins are too smart to be left out of the loop. Their informants on the inside have relayed the agenda back to the Sanctuary. And in response, the Assassins have sent someone to deal with the matter. Now it's personal.

Dart had found the building that they were in easily enough. She passed by it as she walked with the crowds through the streets. She had only seen it out of the corner of her eye, a quick glance. But, by the guards outside it, it didn't take two looks to guess that was it. Not too far from the building she slipped into an alley. Her clock was turned inside out, one side being red and one being dark, almost black, the darker said made it easier for her to stick to any shadows there were as she made her way around and behind a few more buildings, back to the one that was guarded. She stayed back to watch it, makeing sure she was hidden. Getting into the building would be hard. IF she saw an opening she'd go for it. But, for now she'd wait and watch, a good chance would be sure to present itself.

Two guards were talking outside the front door. One was wondering what they were guarding now that the Warrior Guildmaster was in the center of the city, preparing for a speech. Dart knew it would be easier to take him down outside the building, even if it was in public.
Three men around on the side of the building were mounting horses. One said something about being called down to work security at the speech site. Maybe Dart could follow them to her mark.

She heard the guards, catching that her mark was already gone. She moved silently to a different spot as she heard the horses. They were getting ready to go somewhere, and she heard the destination a moment later. Of course she would probably be able to find where the speech was without following them, but it might take longer. Looking around, she made sure that she would be able to follow the horses without anyone noticing, then she waited until they started off. The second the horses had started with the men on their backs, she took off to follow, sticking to the alleys, shadows and roofs.

The safest route looked to be the roof. She had to shove to get through the crowds and follow the horses. It was becoming obvious she was following the horsemen so she climbed to the roof tops.
When they arrived, she crouched low on the roof of the Cathedral. The Guild Master she sought was dressed in full battle armor, preparing to give his orientation. Dart only had about ten minutes before things started. Then all eyes would be on him.

As she crouched on the roof, she let her eyes look over the area they were in. It wouldn't be long before her started talking, so she had to strike before he started. If she waited until after there was sure to be a lot of warriors, and a lot of angry people. She took out her dagger as she looked around.

She was above and behind a raised platform in the large open marketplace. There were three long yellow banners hanging from the building she was on which went all the way to the ground. There were guards on both far corners of the marketplace, one to the GM's right, and one to his far left. Behind him was mostly unoccupied but in front of him was a large mass of people.

Dart moved to the edge of the roof and grabbed onto one of the yellow banners, using it to slide to the ground easily. She waited only a few moments before she ran up to the platform, jumping up onto it then stabbing at the GM, her knife aimed for his neck.

Someone screamed and the guards turned. [yellow]"Hashshashin!"[/yellow] The Warrior Guild Master turned, wide eyed and reaching for his heavy sword.
Roll Agility Check: 8 Stab the Warrior Guild Master in the throat to kill him.

5 Agility + [dice=6] = 9
Her dagger stabbed deep into his neck. She waited for a moment to make sure he was dead before pulling the knife out and taking off running.[rand=64735901431536163640332680894646301225311222221466400502572803497]

The crowd went into a fenzy, tripping over eachother to flee from the marketplace. The guards shoved through the crowds to get to her but most of them were delayed too long and could not catch up to the chase. Dart was heading to the outskirts of the city, being tailed by at least two warriors. She had to lose them or risk confronting them.

When she looked over her should she saw two warriors still on her tail. She quickly turned into an alley and made her way onto the roof of a builiding, thinking she could lose them that way. She didn't wait to see though and just continued running, jumping to the next roof.

They watched her, doing their best to follow her. Suddenly there was a figure dressed in tight black wrappings right in front of her. It seemed to come out of nowhere. He yelled, thrusting a long curved dagger straight at her.

She skidded to a halt, trying to block his attack with her dagger.
2 Defense + 2 Weapon + 3 MP + [dice=6] = 11 total
Resolution Phase:
11 attack - 11 defense= 0 attack = 0 Damage Total
Dart HP: 20/20 MP: 7/10
Hunter HP: 20/20 MP: 8/10
Dart brings her dagger up and attempts to stab him in the shoulder.

Acting quickly, the hunter tries to parry the attack.
3 def + 1 Wpn + 3 MP + [dice=6] = 12
10 Atk - 12 Def = -2 (Blocked)
Dart HP: 20/20 MP: 5/10
Hunter HP: 20/20 MP: 5/10
He moved to attack a second time.
3 Attack + 1 Weapon + 2 MP + [dice=6] = 8 Total Attack [rand=8103801731457947343919829674229849900341153916957451161579987325]
