The Assassin
(Haydn Page)
It is hammering down with rain. Clouds? You could not see them, the rain was so thick. There is a man on the side of the hill checking he his surroundings. A black sports bag sits next to him. He is lying in soaking wet bracken; he is just outside the forest line. He then looked through his black and white binoculars that he had hanging from his neck. You can hear the focusing of the binoculars; he looks through the binoculars. There is nothing. Except an old lonely house leading up to the house there was a sloppy path in mud. There are no feelings or emotions in the mans eyes while examining the house.
The house was grey with black stains on the left and right side of the building. There are four windows and a door at the front of the house. There is a toilet window it is a patterned and smaller in size compared to the rest. The windows are all wooden framed, with moss growing up them. The is the most well kept feature of the house, it is the bright white with one door handle about half way down, which also had a key incorporated into the door handle. The roof was made up of welsh slate it had a lot of chips in it with lichen. The roof also had disproportionate chimney, with extraordinarily thick black smoke pouring out that soon dispersed into the rain as it was still flowing fast. To the rear of the house is an overgrowing weed filled garden, it was more like a wild jungle it is much undomesticated. This is a man in his 60s home garden? Not what you would except from an old man you expect a neatly cut grass and neatly cut hedges.
