The Magician

The lion may be the king of the jungle but even he fears the lioness.

Just to be clear, I’m Charlie and I’m the greatest assassin mage ever. The fact I’ve never taken a life is…

A technicality.

I’ve dreamt to be handpicked by my clan for a target so I can honor the memory of my parents. But even I wouldn’t pick me to kill the most powerful vampire in the world.

This screams of a setup from a mile away. In my mind I might be a deadly killer. In reality, I would probably trip and impale myself on my own magic.

However, what I lack in experience I make up in determination. If I have 24 hours to get the job done, the mother-sucker is going down in twelve.

I’ll choke him to death if I have to.

Wish me luck.
