Prologue- Enter the penguin.
PS: If you have a vivid imagination, this Fan-fic is Rated pg 17, well, the prologue at any rate.
Another day another job. This world truly has no shortage of trash, and I'm not talking about the kind that the garbage man picks up every other week, or the kind that you just toss into the chute on the side of the road. It's my job to take care of it. You could call me the cleaner.
Today's hit was just the typical crap I'd come to expect. Some foreign ambassador who's bringing with him an illegal slaving ring along for the ride. Using his title as an ambassador as a cover for his secret business, he specializes in kidnappings, and forced prostitution. He sends his thugs into the poor neighbourhoods looking for women they could use, forces them to sign contracts that they can't even read, offering them " a chance at a better life, free from poverty" he says. When he leaves a place, he always takes his entourage with him, and uses them in obscure brothels especially tailored for nobles with this kind of corrupt hobby, until they die. Today, he's been black feathered by a bereaved family who worked to the brink of death to scrape up just enough money for the hit. Today, the raven sings.

I tighten my headscarf as I run down the corridor, I identify three armed guards, swordsmen, common bandit leather armor, mid level 50s. Before they notice me, I jump onto the closest guard's exposed back, grab onto his shoulder and slit his throat with a thin knife hidden in my sleeve, before he could react. Before even the blood splatters could touch me, I jumped off his falling corpse spread my arms and flew(gliding) at the next guard.
Using both my hands I plunged my knife into his right eye. Using my knife as a handhold, I hold onto his face, as he screams and flails around, I get covered with blood and fluids, but that isn't my immediate concern. All the flailing and screaming attracted the attention of the third guard. While still clinging onto his face, I pull out a hand crossbow out of my mouth, preloaded with a poisoned flechette, and plugged it straight into the third's chest. I removed my knife from the second's face my kicking off of it, while holding onto my knife. He collapsed into a heap on the ground, and laid very, very still.
The guards are much weaker than the ambassador's normal daytime guards, since he can't exactly use government soldiers with his shady dealings. I reload my hand crossbow with another poisoned flechette, and stow it away. This one has a slow acting, excruciatingly painful, toxin laced in it's feathers. I'll be needing it for the fat pig that started all this.
I walk right up to the last room at the end of the corridor, up to the corrupt official's office, and I kicked the door open.
***
"SHOOT DAMMIT, WHAT THE HELL AM I PAYING YOU PEICES OF SHIT FOR?". When the door suddenly flew across the room, a row of bandit archers started shooting through the entrance. Whatever was on the other side would definitely have been torn to shreds from the countless arrows. However...
"What the shit! There's nothing there! You there, go check it out." The Corrupt Official gestured at the closest of the five archers and sent the disgruntled thug on his merry way, or so he thought....
***
As the unsuspecting fool wanders out of the room, I tear the knife I was using as a Climbing pick out of the ceiling and plunge it into the cranium of the idiot below me, using the force of my entire body. I rush into the room as the other archers quickly realize what just transpired, and start shooting arrows at me.
With their panicky shots, more than half weren't even close to hitting me. I pull two throwing knives out of my mouth and deflect two arrows that were aimed at my head, a third grazes my shoulder, and the fourth went wide. I Jump at the closest archer, and stick both knives into his eyes, and kick off of his face, using the momentum to send me rocketing towards the next archer, slashing his carotid artery as I pass by his face. When my feet touch the floor, I immediately do a back flip. Time slows down as I barely avoid two more arrows by a hairsbreadth, and still in mid-air I throw my two knives and sink them right into their leather bound foreheads. Five fountains blood erupt behind me.
I feel a disturbing movement in the air and tilt my head to the side, a heavy crossbow bolt cuts my cheek. I glare at the fatass ambassador, he squeaks, falls on his overinflated rear, and drops his crossbow. He wouldn't have had enough time to reload it anyways, BEFORE I BLOODY DESTROY HIM.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
As I walk towards him, the fatass ambassador backs away from me, until his back hits the wall. "N-no, I-I'll do anything, just dont kill me! Y-you're doing this for money r-right? I'll give you as much as you wan- AAAAAGGGGH." I take no pleasure in watching pigs sweat bullets, if anything I find taking these oinkers to the slaughter house quieting and relaxing.
He screams from the extreme pain my poisoned flechette."YOU LITTLE F***ER, IF I'm GOING DOWN I'M TAKING YOU WITH ME!" With his dying breaths he activated a hidden Magic circle and the Building started self destructing. There weren't any exits in the room so I ran back out into the corridor. Luckily I see a window on the opposite side of the hall, and run with all my might as explosions occur all around me. Just as I was about to leap for the window. an large explosion occurs behind me Blasting the wall into smithereens, with me along for the ride. Flying under the force of the explosion a chunk of the wall hits my head and my vision went white.....................

Cat and the some guys from Japtem team were running down an exploding alleyway, and boyfriend in hand, Cat yells at Vere "Geeze Vere, why'd you have to decide to go through THE ONE ALLEYWAY THAT STARTS BLOWING UP!".
Vere: "You were the one who told me to do something about those leechers chasing us! How was I supposed to know that THIS alleyway would go to hel-" *BOOM* Suddenly a very large explosion occurs right behind Cat and the other guys get caught in the blast.
"kYah!" -Cat
"WHAH!!!"-Haik
"Aaaaaagh"- Cat's Unnamed boyfriend(CUB), who shall forever remained unnamed because that's his "thing".
"THIS ISN'T MY FAULT!"-Vere
Picking herself off the ground, Cat takes a look around. The explosions seem to have subsided ,but she can't see any of the guys around. "Guys? Where'd you go? I think it's over now. Guy-"

Noticing that she was holding something very soft and squishy Cat looks at her hand.

Cat was holding onto an injured, bloodstained, battered, very-out-of-it-yet-still-extremely-badass-looking-penguin-with-a-headscarf. *Squee* "A PENGUIN!". *Glomps* Cat hugs the poor little guy, and literally crushes him. *Crack* Oh god, that was not a healthy sound.
*Strange Penguin's Hp deceases by 150*
*Groans* "Ugh...... Thought I was going to die. Hey Cat what are you doing, help me out here!"- Vere
Surprised, Cat looks up and tries to find the source of the voice. "Vere? Where are you? Are you dead? Are you talking to me from the afterlife? Please stop, you were annoying when you were still alive, having you haunt me would be an endless nightmare."
Suddenly a huge cloud of dust billows out from the pile of rubble, as Vere suddenly breaks out of his prison out of anger. " You Baka-Neko! We're trapped under the rubble! >=O"
As Vere and Cat start bickering a weak voice comes out from under the rubble. "....... guys........... We could .....use.... a bit of help............... I think Haik's unconscious....."-CUB
***
30 Minutes later*
Haik pats down his Priests' robe, with a cloud of dust coming off of them, and cleans his glasses like nothing ever happened. "I seriously thought I was going to die, between the crazy leechers and exploding welcome mat from hell. How did all this start anyways?" -Haik
"Well we were on our way to meet Masa, oh wait I'm pretty sure his name In game is Alf, or something like that."-CUB.
"Yeah where is Masa........"-Vere
