Chapter 2
Imperial City
Present Day

It wasn’t long before Giovanni had returned to Lex. He was still looking over the body.

“Surely you have found enough Lex.” Giovanni said, but Lex wasn’t listening, he continued to look over the body.

“We must be missing something… Why the dark Brotherhood?” Lex asked

“Revenge, maybe the killers parents were murdered.” Giovanni shrugged.

“No, if it was revenge, the victim would be way more bruised because the killer would want to inflict pain… this was planned.”

“I still stand by that it was the Morag Tong…” Giovanni started, but was interrupted by Lex.

“And I’m telling you that it can’t be either one.” He yelled. Giovanni took a few steps back.

“I’m sorry Giovanni… I get carried away.” He returned to inspecting the body.

“You need not be sorry friend.” Giovanni said and Lex’s grim face turned into a smile. He then returned to the body, still looking for something else. He undid the Dunmer top and saw a mark on the chest, just above the breasts. It was a rough drawing of a knife. Colored in, but broken in half. He stood up and told a guard to take the body away; it was unlikely he would get anything else. Lex stood and ran after Giovanni, who had walked back into the city.


Belisarius Arius ran for his life. He had done many of his Dark Brotherhood duties today; he was on his way to the next when he was attacked. He escaped with only a few cuts, no severe ones. He was unsure if he was still being chased but he kept running anyway. He was close to the Imperial City and hiding in the sewers.

He dropped on the banks of the river and drunk some water, he was still in his Black Hand garb and he was sure that the attacker was still behind him. A dagger flew past him, confirming his suspicions as the chase began again. Belisarius didn’t get very far. The dagger pierced his back and the blade touched his heart. He fell to the floor and looked up to see a man.

“Morag Tong… You shall…Pay!” He said between deep breathes.

“That will make my job easier.” The killer said in a cocky voice. He bent down low pulled out his dagger, which he used to slit Belisarius’ throat. The killer then moved the body to just in front of the Imperial Jail Sewers and stuffed a Writ into the pocket of the dead assassin. A smile twisted onto the killers face and he ran away.

Lex and Giovanni returned to the Barracks. The guards were having a lively party, with Cyrodilic Brandy and other kinds of beverages all over the place. When the door opened, the men stopped their merrymaking, but continued when Giovanni nodded his head. Lex grabbed a bottle of Cyrodilic brandy, but it wasn’t long before a guard ran into the room.

“There’s been another murder!” The guard called, everyone stopped partying and ran outside. They ran out the front of the Market District, there was a man in Black Hand robes. He was part of the Dark Brotherhood.

Giovanni searched the body and found another Writ.

“It’s the same guy. How did he find this guy so fast?” Giovanni asked.

“I don’t know, but the body was killed very recently and was moved.” Lex said, he picked up the body and had a look at the victim’s back, which had a massive cut in it. He had a look at it more closely.

“He had been cut a few times but managed to escape; he had run for a very long time and had found some water, which he drunk. The dagger had hit him in the back while he was running and then his throat was slit… Elven dagger again.”

“How can you possibly know that?” Giovanni asked in disbelief.

“I know he had drunken water because his hands are wet and produce no smell. He had been running for ages because he was sweating. The back was cut before the neck because the wound has scabbed more then on the neck” Lex said, answering Giovanni’s question.

“Wow, this guy is good.” Giovanni said.

“And he’s targeting Dark brotherhood members…”

“Isn’t that a good thing?” Lex ignored the question and studied the body.

‘I’m going to catch this guy,’ He thought, ‘The grey fox will have to wait.’
