The Nighthaunter was walking through
Mikdash ha'Sheket heading down towards the bottom levels as that is where he knew the Chaplain's office would be. He made sure to keep his wits about him, as he knew that any one of the initiates could decide to attempt to eliminate him in order to take out the competition. He could hear the screams of people dying horrible deaths in the halls as the initiates turned on one another in an attempt to eliminate opposition, or try and seize a token that one of them had pick pocketed. This was the first time he had seen such trials in action as his first and only recruit he had accepted in and trained personally. Kyri had been an exceptional candidate and due to the Nighthaunter's extremely high standards over forty candidates did not survive the personal training they received from the Nighthaunter, however Kyri performed exceptionally well. And this was who he was pursuing now, how quickly life flips things one ones head. He was sure that he would be happy to see him. All of a sudden he was snapped out of his daydreaming as he saw a gleaming vibro dagger through the the darkness heading straight towards his head. He immediately rolled to the side the dagger whistling harmlessly past him, he immediately flicked on infra red imaging on his HUD immediately spotting his assailant.
He was in hiding in the darkness of the hallway around about 35 feet in front of him, the outline showed a humanoid figure most likely male but he couldn't tell. He crouched behind a crate using it as make shift covers as he heard a thud as another throwing knife went into the crate.
"Kid listen to me I am going to give you one chance to back off, you don't know what you are dealing with." He said in a gruff intimidating voice.
He could feel the uncertainty in the person attacking him in that moment of silence before he responded, "I know you have a token and that you aren't an initiate, hand it over and we can both walk away." He said his voice cracking slightly.
Poor kid he was clearly one of the cannon fodder and did not have the skills to make it in the Silencers, The Nighthaunter sighed, "
Just remember... You wanted this." As he said this the initiate started shooting on his position the blaster bolts clattering against the crate, as this was happening he took out one his throwing stars and took a deep breath. He then looked out from behind the crate and threw the singular throwing star, there was then a loud thud and a scream.
The star had lodged deep in the wrist of his shooting arm, rupturing arteries and squirting blood everywhere. The initiates make shift dark armour now covered in his own red blood. The Nighthaunter stepped out from his cover and saw the poor initiate screaming as he looked at the blood squirting out of his arm. The initiate realized it was now or never he dropped his gun and used his left arm to pull out his dagger, as his right arms was now completely useless due to the severed tendons. The Nighthaunter pulled out his Katana,
'this was going to be fun.' He thought to himself, as he pulled out his Katana from his back just as the initiate swiped at him with the dagger. He ducked under it, his exoskeleton in his armour making his movements almost inhumanly fast he then smacked the initiate on the butt with the flat of his sword. He smiled beneath his mask as much as he could enjoy this he had work to do and needed to finish this quickly. As the bleeding initiative swiped at him again the Nighthaunter parried the strike with his blade and then slipped under his guard sliding the blade into his abdomen. There was a loud gasp from the initiate as the light left his pale blue eyes.
The Nighthaunter then slumped the boy to the side, looking down at him with some form of pity bit also contempt at such a poor performance. He then stripped the boy of his armour before taking out his dagger and writing the words, "DO NOT FOLLOW," into the boys abdomen as a warning to the other initiates to leave him alone. In order to make it more intimidating he removed the boy's eyes, tongue, nose and ears making him in sense faceless and unidentifiable. The sadistic Nighthaunter stepped back to admire his handiwork, and began walking down the hallway to find Kyri hoping no one would follow him.
