Light The Way

Sierra walked carefully on the roof tiles. With the cool night breeze blowing against her skin, a smile formed on her face. It had been a while since she was able to enjoy the beauty of the night. 

She leaped across the roof of another building before making her way down to the ground level. Before she left her room, she picked up the mask she had worn during the ball. Under the shadows of the nearby trees, she put on the mask before continuing to make her way around. 

She carefully avoided the patrolling guards as she made her way toward the dungeon. Feeling confident, she took a right turn without checking, running straight into a group of four patrol guards.

"Dang it," she cursed beneath her breath. 

They noticed her instantly. But before they even had the chance to say anything, Sierra made quick work of them. With precision, she hit each of them on the side of the neck. One by one the men dropped to the ground like flies, passed out.
