She was grabbed from behind so quickly she didnt know what hit her.
A hand forced an oily rag into her mouth and halfway down her throat,
the thrust of the knife entering her back pushed the air from her
lungs, she clutched at anything, her nails felt the side of the wall
and broke off, with another thrust the knife severed her spine,
the next stab penetrating her left lung and it was over.

  "Guess that means I dont owe you anymore Nabiki" he said as he
looked down at her brutalised body.

	(Hey! You forgot the ending!)

	Nabiki's limp and bloodied form lay in the alley as the as the
killer slipped out the alley.
	Then it moved.
	#I hate dying,# Nabiki thought absently as she pushed herself to
her feet, wincing as psychosomatic pain reminded her of where the lethal
wounds were seconds ago, #it _hurts_!#
	Clearing her thoughts with a quiet snort, the ex-corpse considered
sneaking into her home to dispose of her bloodstained garb and make
herself presentable; then discarded that idea with a slightly cruel smile. 
She knew that voice well, and knew a shortcut to it's owner's home even
better.  A quick stop at her _own_ stash on the way there, and that punk
would never welch on a debt to her again.

	Since when was stabbing unarmed women (or men for that matter) in 
the back a sign of being a "bad@$$"?

I feel like continuing this...

        Nabiki felt a cool hand touch her Shoulder.
        "Are you alright" Said a Young man.
        "Fine...You are a bit late, He who is my protector." Said Nabiki Flatly.
        "I was busy."
        "Sure you were."
        "Do you enjoy it? Death I mean? You seem to Die alot. I have been
stalking the planet for 3000 years, and I have met many who have become
addicted to the last moment before death."
        "But you were always Inmortal, If you die, you conventily find a
female host and are born again. Any you'r tens of tousands of years old, The
novelty has worn of."
        "Never shall I be used to death."
        "My Tyrant, I know so."
        They walk of together....
