The next day...
It was ten am and Melody had arrived at Arcadia to reunite with her fellow assassin's , she walked through the streets and weaved through one alley after another then stood still. A few moments later she looked around making sure she wasn't being watched and then walked onwards towards a group of buildings , Melody walked in between the group of buildings and then entered a small alleyway.
A moment later she entered the shop and headed towards the storage room , after entering the storage room she placed her foot onto a triangular shaped piece of wood behind a barrel. Seconds later a secret door had opened in the corner of the room , Melody walked down the staircase and deeper into the secret passage as torchlight illuminated the tunnel around her.
Several moments later Melody had reached a wall and knocked on it eight times in a specific pattern , then suddenly another secret door opened in front of her. A moment later Melody entered the hidden room to find her fellow assassin's inside , "ah Melody welcome back!" Said Arthur the leader of the assassin's , "it is good to see you" said Melody , "what brings you back to us?" Asked Paige.
"I have been dreaming about the war again" said Melody , "I remember the war , we all do , we lost a few friends that day" said Arthur as he straightened his tie. "I lost my brother that day" said Paige as she brushed her long black hair to the side and stared at the floor with her cold grey eyes , "however , we have had some new recruits since then , they're all full trained and ready to fight" said Arthur.
"I am sure you're not here just to remember old times" said Paige , "no I am here to find something that belonged to Pharios" said Melody. "What is it you seek?" Asked Arthur , "I want his dagger , mine was destroyed by one of the members of the Order of Romanus last month" said Melody as Arthur walked towards a shelf , moments later Arthur opened a metal box and opened it.
Arthur took Pharios's dagger from out of the box and handed it to Melody , the handle as black as night with a design made out of red coloured resin. "Thank you Arthur , maybe I can get justice using his dagger" said Melody as she attached it to her belt , "I must leave now , I have other plans that cannot be broken" said Melody , "oh what plans?" Asked Paige.
Melody rolled her eyes a little and said "I am meeting a friend.." , "ah I see , how long has it been going on?" Said Arthur as he smiled at her a little. "Almost a year now" said Melody , "does he know about us and what we do?" Asked Arthur , "yes I have told him , I trust him" said Melody , "what is his name?" Asked Paige , "his name is Lance , he lives in the town called Crystal Cove" said Melody.
"Well in that case you must go before you are late" said Paige , a few moments later Melody said goodbye to Arthur and Paige and left their base. Later that morning Melody had arrived at Crystal Cove and met Lance near the train station , "Ah there you are I was getting worried" said Lance as he held Melody's hand , then suddenly a police horse carriage sped towards them , "look out!" Said Melody.
Melody and Lance moved out of the way quickly and watched as the horse carriage continued to speed down the road , "I wonder where they are going in a hurry?" Said Lance. Moments later they saw a column of black smoke and flames just a couple of streets away , Lance and Melody ran towards the direction of the smoke and fire until they reached Arrow Street.
"Oh no....my house is on fire!!" Said Lance as the windows shattered , "I must go in there , my sister's jewellery box is in there" said Lance. "No it is to risky , you could die in there!" Said Melody , "it's all I have left of her , I must try" said Lance as he started to run towards his burning house , moments later he ran into his burning house and moved quickly through the rooms and towards his bedroom.
Lance quickly grabbed the jewellery box and made his way to the top of the stairs , then suddenly the roof caved in and large planks of wood and debris blocked his exit. Flames raged as smoke flooded the house and blackened the walls , "I'm trapped , I'm going to die in here..." Said Lance.
