A fatal shadow with stealth movements.

Japanese castles with cherry blossoms,

drifting in snow.

The sounds of  wolves,

howling in a forest of bamboo.

With smells of burnt wood,

as I follow their tracks. 

Enemies unknown with limited options.

Preceding my surroundings with caution.

My life is not my own.

I am my master's blade.

I have no voice and only one chance.

I live in the darkness.

You will never know i am here.

Spills of crimson as cold steel taste flesh.

The only sound you will hear,

is your last dying breath.

I am...

The angel of death

and I've come for your life.
