Taka saw his target distracted with beating the child and decided to make his move. He slipped into the room like a silent nightmare and his target dropped to the floor lifeless before he could deliver another blow. Taka stood over the lifeless body but his eyes were focused on the child before him. He couldn't just leave the boy here, who knew when some one would discover the boy's lifeless master.

Taka was an assassin though, a killer not a nurturer. What was he going to do with a child? Perhaps he could find a home for the child. He grabbed the child swiftly, covering the boy's mouth before he could make a sound. "If you want to live and possibly find a better life, don't utter a sound." Taka whispered the words into the boy's ear.

Not even waiting for an answer, Taka scooped up the child and was out the window in a flash. He hardly noticed the weight of the child as he moved stealthily but swiftly away from his target's home. He didn't even slow until he found a dark corner of the woods, more than a mile from the boy's old home. Only once they were hidden in the shadows, did Taka set the child down.
