I was sitting in my chamber
Sipping quietly my tea
When she came bursting through the door
Loudly asking for me
I don't know what she wanted
I didn't even to know her name
With each step that I took towards her
The angrier she became
I asked her what her name was
But she did not reply
She told me that was not important
And that very soon I would die
She reached behind her back
And pulled out a sharp knife
It was then I realized her goal
She was here to end my life
With one quick move
I was on the floor
She turned around, laughing,
And walked out the door
And my breaths draw slow and ragged
I know why she had come
She's a ruthless, heartless mercenary
And I had met my doom....
