Plot- Your guy has been training for years to climb rank and get into the well-known and infamous Blood Brother's guild. Now are 18 they are finally accepted with a few others to go through the tests to see if you are good enough for the guild. Well, the test master is the one and only, Death's Hand. The founder and leader of the BB and your guy's crush, so can your guy impress them and get in, or will they fail and be nothing to Death's Hand?
Cage Anderson- (Assassin) (Death's Hand)
Cage is Asian, born from a Chinese woman and man. He spent his early childhood in China. When he was 8, Cage was taken from his home and familiar surrounds- by a slaver group, to the black markets in Russia. Before he reached his 9th birthday Cage had done… unspeakable things. It changed him, made him hard but, also stronger and it made it worth the pain. A faint scar now is upon his face, cutting down his left eye to stop on his upper lip. His soot black hair is haphazardly cut, rumored to have been cut with just a knife. While in fact it was cut by his own dagger when it gets what he thinks is too long. Also, dagger and knife, two totally different things. Well, to Cage it is. Cage’s eyes are dark brown, almost black. They hold little to no emotion. He does not see emotions as a weakness like so many do he just prefers to keep his emotions under a wrap. During the spell in Russia, he gained many tattoos, most of which are on his chest and back and are different words and names. He has yet to explain what all the various words and names mean to him, f anything at all. The assassin was rescued from Russia when he was 11. Still young but, always very… dark. Most assassins saw him as broken at first and wondered why they bothered rescuing him. Cage gave them their answer soon after he heard of their objections. In what manner? Well, those louder ones have still yet to turn up. Since he came to the agency he has risen quickly in rank and so respect. When it comes to Cage’s personality… It’s surprisingly warm, for being everybody's worst nightmare. But it is true. He encourages the younger recruits and shows clear respect towards other older assassins. The reason? Contacts. Cage can change his outward attitude to match pretty much anyone he meets. It is huge for assassins to have great contacts and for this reason, Cage works to have the very best at his disposal. Interestingly, he is rather patient about it too. However, like all assassins, he had an icy side. A side no one dares touch. For that side usually, ends up with the targets vanishing into thin air.

Tobias Robin Henning
Doesn't particularly like his first name so he usually goes by Robin. He is a fair skinned man and stands at 6'0". He has an athletic build, which is somewhat needed if he wants to improve his rank. He has dark green eyes, which you can only tell are green if you get close enough. He has straight dark brown hair that he tries to keep short and out of his face. He has an oval face shape, a narrow nose and a defined jaw line. His face stays smooth despite his attempts at growing facial hair. He has a faint scar on his lower lip and a tattoo of a robin on his back at his shoulder. He very badly wants to climb rank and be in the Blood Brother's guild. He is a bit vain and can be impulsive. Is people oriented. Can be a little insensitive at times and only really cares for people that he close to. (Not really sure on his personality so it could change)

This group of trainees was special. That was what he was told and so here he was, looking for himself. However, being here over three hours he had not seen anything particularly... unique. Yes, they all were talented and naturally talented at that, but that wasn't enough for him to personally test them. No, there needed to be something more. As of now, Death's Hand was disappointed in the report he got from one of his high up assassins. Sighing, he turned to leave when his sharp almost black eyes caught into a group of trainees. 'Four against one? This should be mildly entertaining.' He thought with a shrug to himself. Then he moved closer to the railing of the balcony and watched the fair skinned man with dark eyes go up against four other assassins.

Tobias stood back and eyed the other trainees carefully. It was four against one, which wasn't exactly a fair fight, but he was confident that he could take them all. He shifted his feet slightly and got into a fighting stance and waited for one of the other trainees to make the first move. One of the other trainees rushed at him and he took them down easily enough. He dodged their attack and used their weight and momentum against them to take them to the ground. He turned to the other trainees and smirked slightly, he always liked a good fight, even if it was just training. He blocked and dodged attacks the other trainees threw at him. He did get himself hit a few times, but in the end he was the one still standing while all the others were on the ground. Tobias was breathing heavily from the fighting and he glanced around at the other trainees, a slight grin of victory on his face. He looked around some more and he noticed the Death's Hand watching from a nearby balcony. The Death's Hand just watched him win that fight. He sure was lucky.

Cage nodded to himself. Impressive. He took them out swiftly and with little trouble. Maybe these trainees were all so boring after all. But, there was only one way to see for himself. With little difficulty, he launched himself over the railing and fell to the ground. Landing in a kneeling position, he ignored the looks and claps as he stood and dusted himself off. Moving forward, he nodded to a couple of the teacher Assassin's and then reached the one he was most interested in. "Greetings assassin," he drawled, eyes giving him a glance over. The form was good, could, of course, use a bit of adjusting but he was a natural. "I'm Death's Hand. You are...?" he questioned warmly. Cage was just slightly off his rocker, per say. He tended to be very warm which threw most people off until they realized that his warmth was a facade to cover his dead heart. Or at least, that was what rumors said. Death wasn't one to interact with other Assassin's outside of training most of the time. So no one really knew what he was like to those he actually liked.

"Woah..." Tobias muttered under his breath as he watched Cage make his way down from the railing and onto the training grounds. He really was a very impressive assassin. He shifted his footing as Cage started to make his way over to him, and he felt a small wave of nervousness wash over him. What would Death's Hand want with him? He knew he was an impressive trainee but he didn't think that Test Master of the guild would come down to greet him personally. He swallowed down the lump in his throat before he answered. "Robin, it's a pleasure to meet you sir." he said to him with a slight bow of his head. He kept his greeting formal, he didn't want to disrespect Death's Hand by greeting him any other way.

Arching an eyebrow for a moment, the man nodded slightly. "I see. It's nice to meet you, Robin," he said warmly. Then he glanced around and frowned, people were just standing there staring. "Need something?" he spoke sharply and quickly they returned to their practice. Returning his attention to the male in front of him, he nodded to himself once more. Yes, he would definitely interested in this young man. "You are training for the Blood Brother's guild correct?"

Robin nodded and smiled slightly at Cage's warm greeting, something you wouldn't really expect an assassin to say. His smile faded and he blinked in surprise when the man in front of him snapped at the others around them. He glanced around as the others went back to their training then looked back to Cage as he started to speak again. "Yes, yes I am." he answered with an affirmative nod.

"Good. You have a natural talent. However I'd like to see for myself what you can do," Death said voice becoming cold and hard. Turning he took a few steps away from the other before turning to face him once again. "Attack me. Don't hold anything back. I want to see how your strength in your attacks are," he explained, eyes hard and completely serious.
Shifting his stance into one ready to be attacked, he waited patiently for the other to get a hold of himself. No doubt somewhat frazzled by what he was telling him to do.

Now this he was definitely not expecting. He wanted him to attack him? Well alright then. This was a fight he was sure he couldn't win but he would he would at least try and do what he was told. "Okay." he said with a nod. He got into his fighting stance and took a deep breath as he sized him up, seeing where he should attack first. He watched him for a few seconds longer before he approached him and did what he was told and attacked him. He faked a hit right, but actually went left, but he was sure Death's Hand would be able to see through a move as simple as that.

As he waited and watched, Death was unsurprised when the first move was a fake and then a real attack. It was a common attack, common. Blah. With little effort, he ignored the fake and caught the left in his hand, grip tight. "You are fast. But you need to have more confidence in yourself. You need to attack me like you mean it," Cage began in an even tone. "Try not to do a fake as a first move maneuver. It's too common," he advised the other. Then he released the hand and nodded his thoughts moving quickly.
In one swift movement, he stepped back and then shot his leg out, aiming for the other side. All the while curling his hands into fists ready to strike with them as well.

Robin froze when Death caught his attack. He glanced up at him and listened to his advice and watched him carefully. He was expecting for him to take him to the ground since he had the upper hand and was a little surprised when he just let him go. He took his hand back then quickly took a step back away from him. He blocked his kick as best as he could, while trying not to get hurt to bad or fall over. He then moved forward again and aimed a couple quick jabs in his direction that he knew he would block before aiming a punch to his stomach.

He didn't manage to dodge the kick fully, but he took it well. Cage thought. Then he followed the others movement, easily dodging the quick attacks towards him. The other was moving faster which was better though. He had to give him credit for that. Then just as a jab to his stomach came at him, a voice could be heard all over the arena.
"Death!!!" A shrill female voice screeched, distracting him for a mere second. The hit was right on and not without power behind it. Letting out a gasp and stumbling back some, he doubled over and cursed. Of course. Her. Of all people, it had to be her. Hand on his stomach where he was just hit, he spun around and snarled at a red haired woman who stepped out of the crowd which gathered watching the sparring.

Robin had heard the voice as well, but it didn't distract him or his swing. He didn't actually think that he would be able get a hit in, he thought Death would either dodge or stop his attack like he was doing before so he was a little surprised when he made contact. He watched him as he stumbled back and doubled over. He felt a little bit bad for landing a powerful hit on Death's Hand, but it was his own fault for getting distracted during a sparring match. He just hoped he wouldn't be angry with him when he was done dealing with the red haired woman. He lowered his hands slightly as Death turned away and he glanced over at the red haired woman and the others watching. He was so caught up in the fight he had realized a crowd had even gathered.

The woman smirked, hands on her hips. "Well, look at who is getting distracted in the middle of a fight. You could have died if that was a knife," she scolded. Then she moved forward gracefully, turning her attention to the one who had landed the hit. "Well done. Very few people actually manage to hit Death's Hand," she praised him, smiling sweetly.
Cage ground his teeth together but chose not to say anything, as he was curious as to how this new recruit would react to praise from a witch. Erm, her. "Viper, don't get his head too big. He's only a trainee," he drawled out.

Robin watched as the woman made her way over to them and he took note of her interactions with Death's Hand. He wondered what kind of relationship they had with the way they talked to each other. "Thank you." he said to her with a small nod, accepting the praise from her. Although Death's next words made him kind of regret doing so.

Viper huffed but chose to not comment and then she became serious. "Death's Hand, there was a slight mishap on the mission. We need to talk-" she began but was then cut off by Death's Hand himself. "No. I am busy for one. But any mishaps are to be dealt by the mission leader. You in this sad case," Cage spoke firmly and almost angrily. It ticked him off that the mission he'd assigned to her had gone badly but whatever happened he was not the one to deal with it. It was the mission leader. Turning towards Robin he made a motion for the man to step closer to him, eyes hard. "Tell me the number one rule about missions, trainee."

Robin continued to watch and listen to the conversation happening between then looked to Death as he turned to him. He followed his orders and stepped closer to him. "All activities regarding a mission are to be carried out by the mission leader." he answered, although his answer was a little bit more of a question than a statement. He was sort of guessing, he has never been on a mission before so he only vaguely new the rules to one.

"Even the trainee understands. Now, leave!" Death snarled, his temper now rising and so his voice. Then he turned towards Robin again, eying his for a moment in silence. "I will see you tomorrow along with the few others to test," he spoke curtly, before turning and walking inside the building, having had enough of people for the moment.
Viper's eyes flash and she glared at Robin for a moment before turning and also leaving.
(Sorry, wasn't sure how to continue what I was doing. XDDD)

(It's okay c: )
Robin couldn't help but flinch slightly as Death rose his voice. He looked to the other assassin as he turned to him and he nodded at the news given to him. He was happy to hear that he would be taken in be tested for the guild. It would finally give him a chance to prove himself. He took a quick glance over at Viper before looking at the other trainees gathered around. "What are all you looking at?" he asked with a glare before walking away. (Want to skip?)

(Yeah, time skip to the first test.)
Death's hand stood in the area waiting, foot tapping lightly against the ground. The first test was simple but got your blood pumping. An obstacle course. Not an easy one at that. But for some, it wouldn't even faze them. Death was curious as to how it would affect Robin, if at all.

Robin made his way into the area with the obstacle course and smiled upon seeing it. "Piece of cake." he said with a grin as he cracked his knuckles. Then upon instruction he rushed into the obstacle course. Some of the obstacles almost got the better of him because he somewhat rushing and wasn't taking his time with some of them. He did make his way though it and out the other side without a scratch on him and a little bit out of breath.

Looking at the time, Death nodded in appreciation. "Robin was a top time. He's doing quite well," he muttered to himself. Then he strolled over to where he was now resting. "Well done. You got the quickest time. THough you can work on thinking before acting," the man praised with a smirk. He couldn't and wouldn't hide his approval of this young man. He seemed to be more unique than the others and so he would take him under his wing.

Robin was standing a bit off to the side and placed his hands on his hips as he caught his breath. Then he glanced over at Death as he approached then turned to him. "Thank you sir." he said in response to the praise and criticism. He was an impulsive young man so thinking before he acted wasn't really something he did often.
