Once 'she' was alone again, 'she' turned around and faced the cherry blossom tree.
"I know you're there. You're breathing is too loud for my experienced ears."
"..."
"Still not coming out? Alright, you can do that. I'll just go up there and attack you."
"Alright, alright, I'll come down." A soft voice said.
A pretty girl jumped down from the tree.
She had dark hair and bright eyes. Her clear dark eyes looked at Han Lu Shi's new eyes.
"Why are you so... pale?" She asked.
"..."
"Are you sick?"
"..."
"Are you... on your... period?" She said, whispering the last part.
Han Lu Shi's face reddened.
"Oh..." She said in understanding, "It's ok. You'll be used to the cramps soon enough!" She said cheerily.
"What is your intention, Death Spy?"
The girl's clear black eyes widened. "How did you know?" She asked.
"What is you intention, Death Spy?" 'She' repeats.
"To retrieve someone who knows the Blood Arts like the back of their hand. I would've tried to get the Great General Han Lu Shi, but he's dead. I was about to give up, since he was the only one who knew it, but I suddenly came across you!!! Then, I thought I could retrieve you instead!!!"
*****
The Death Spies were an organization who would complete any mission given to them for the right price. However, they were extremely loyal to their master, because of a blood pact. If any thought of betraying their master came into their head, they would immediately burn up in white flames.

"Who gave you the mission?"
"You're supposed to meet him in person."
"I will not go with you." 'She' says.
"Alright, alright. It's someone called 'Mortifer' or something."
Han Lu Shi stopped.
"Say that again."
"Mortifer?"
"I'm coming with you."
"Alright?" She said, not sure what to make of it, "I have to cover your eyes, though."
