Mission: Retrieve the Contract and assassinate the target
~*~
As I sped off to retrieve the contract, I wondered why it wasn't given to me while I was in the village to save me a lot of wasted time travelling into the Land of Earth. But as I looked at the parchment attached to the hawk's leg, I realised why. My assignment was to assassinate a corrupt official of the Leaf Village while he was off vacationing in the hot springs of the Hidden Stone. I was often tasked with doing the village's dirty work and I didn't mind. I'd been doing it long enough anyway.
So as to cleaning up the village's mess, I got right to work. For a whole day I shadowed him while keeping a watchful eye on the ANBU guarding him. If a corrupt official had an ANBU captain in his pocket then everyone under him was in their pocket as well. In truth, the ANBU were as dysfunctional as anything else. Perhaps even more so. And just as corrupt as any money hungry official. It didn't matter that I was their sister in arms, those men would cut me down without hesitation.
On a regular basis the target dismissed his guards briefly to partake in some rather rough sex with unsuspecting prostitutes. I kept track of who was his favourite and took her place. Transformed into her likeness, knocked her out briefly, and waited for her to be summoned. Men were such simple creatures. He wouldn't even notice the difference.
And it's true, he didn't. While I danced for him the hem of his kimono began forming a tent. Quite a low tent too. He was thoroughly distracted and he wouldn't notice if the rough petting suddenly turned into a lethal situation. For him.
When he finally decided that dancing wasn't enough for him and he put his hand on my thigh. Despite how gross it felt on my skin that actually put his goods right within reach. With a coy smirk I dug my heel into his jewels and kicked him onto his back with my other foot. He was wincing and crying a bit and looking utterly confused all at the same time since I hadn't let up on my heel. Oh how it pleased me.
I dissipated the illusion and pulled out my blade from- somewhere you don't need to hear. Knowing his life was in imminent danger he started to beg for his life. Offering me money, power, whatever he thought would sway my decision. But it was hopeless. The Succubus of the Leaf would take out yet another target. And this one surely deserved it. Using his power as an excuse to mistreat women and belittle the people who work for him. I saw him scream at the geisha's who danced for him several times in my surveillance for being sluts. He was a shitty man and his life would soon come to a bloody end.
Slicing his throat ear to ear, I waited until he stopped choking on his own blood to lean down and take off my mask. I knew this man. I'd serviced him once upon a time. Several times. But then I was known as Nanase. His eyes reflected the recognition and before he passed I leaned down and while kissing his cheek, leaving a blood red kiss mark, I sucked out every drop of his chakra. Leaving him a shriveled corpse in a pool of his own blood. The calling card of the Succubus. Putting my mask back in place I quickly vanished from the scene. Giving the girl who I had masqueraded as the entire amount of the man's coin purse and instructing her to get the hell out of there. He was technically last seen with her though I doubt the village would pursue her. They'd just sweep his murder under the rug and release the news when it was most convenient for them.
But with that my mission was finished and I headed back to the village.
Mission Accomplished
This is my mission from a couple weeks ago. Just finished the post. A little crude but I wanted to do something.
