VA888, a civilian airliner flying from Country M to Country Z, was soaring through the rumbling thunder when it suddenly plunged head-first into the thick dark clouds.
Inside the cabin, a young, eighteen-year-old girl with beautiful long, black hair, sat quietly.
The beautiful young lady from the East had a tranquil air about her.
The young girl held an English newspaper in hand. Her bright dark eyes scanned the texts.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Loud gunfire suddenly broke the silence in the cabin.
The previously peaceful atmosphere unraveled.
Chaos ensued as bullets flew.
Before anyone could react, half a dozen men in black appeared in the front of the aircraft. Each of them carried an M10 submachine gun of their own.
"Nobody moves!" One of the men cried.
No one dared to make a sound lest they became collateral damage.
"Negative, sir."
There was no sign of the person they were looking for.
The hundreds of people on the plane were scared out of their wits.
The sweet lass from the East was probably the only one indifferent about the situation.
A peach had replaced her newspapers from earlier. She was enjoying the fruit as if the men in black were invisible.
She slowly ate her peach, indulging as sweetness filled her mouth with every bite.
The young lady was sitting near those men in black.
The leader's face darkened and he remained silent for a few moments before stating the purpose of this hijack.
"I never thought that the notorious Snake King would disguise himself as an ordinary civilian to sneak onto this flight."
"Show yourself, Snake King, and hand over the blood jade!"
"Otherwise we'll kill everyone here one by one until you do!"
Snake King?!
It was a familiar name indeed!
In just three years, her gut-wrenching methods of killing had haunted countless kingpins!
She had broken horrible records that numerous hired guns could only dream of breaking. She was the only assassin with a one hundred percent kill rate!
However, people knew very little about this infamous killer.
They only knew that she worked for Blood Shadow Organization.
The leader of the men in black, codenamed Tyrannosaurus.
As an assassin from the same organization, he knew Snake King's strength well. Therefore, he was on his guard at all times, even while talking, for fear that Snake King would suddenly launch a sneak attack on him.
Tyrannosaurus raised his hand, pulled the trigger, and without even blinking, put a bullet through a man's head.
Bright red blood spurted everywhere like a macabre rain.
"Ah!"
The crowd screamed.
Instead of panicking, that girl frowned.
"You've soiled my peaches." Headless of the looming danger around her, the young girl complained mildly.
The peach she was eating was stained with the dead man's blood.
The peach kernel in the young girl's hand transformed into a weapon.
The young girl tossed the peach kernel toward one of the men. A twinkle of silver flashed before the crowd's eyes.
With unerring accuracy, the peach kernel slipped into the man's mouth as he yawned.
The unsuspecting man collapsed with a loud thud. He was dead in less than a minute.
The young girl raised her eyes and threw Tyrannosaurus and his men a gracious look. She didn't look like someone who had just killed a grown man with a peach kernel.
She then gave Tyrannosaurus a huge, warm smile.
"I heard that you guys were looking for me."
