Deadly Wit

== Prologue ==
Once upon a time...no, that makes this sound like a fairy tale. In fact, this story is the farthest you could get from a fairy tale. This, dear reader, is a story of crime. A story of death. A story of a murderous duo - partners in crime, if you please. Now, dear reader, would you like to meet this elusive duo? They've been waiting to see you.
== Chapter 1: Wit and Rat ==
We find our criminal friends in a dark alley - the cliche hiding place of killers. Of course, they have chosen it because it is cliche. No one expects cliches. But on with it.
Ann and Peter, our killer and her lackey are waiting for someone. They were told a description, a codename, and a code phrase. This person was meant to be an ally. They were an assassin who went by the name of Deathbringer. (Our duo had been codenamed Wit and Rat respectively.)
They were lurking in the shadows when a man stepped out of the shadows right next to them. Peter jumped.
Ann, unflinching as always, said: "Take me to the desert palace."
He responded, "Who are you?"
She told him, "I'm Wit and this is Rat. Hello, Murderbasket. We've been sent to help you."
"It's Deathbringer, not Murderbasket. Who sent you?"
"Asajj."
"She's the boss. What do we need to do?"
"We need to take out some politicians. Boring business."
"I'll handle it. I'm the trained assassin here."
"And I'm just a murderer?"
"Yes," Murderbasket remembered that Peter was still standing there. "What does Rat do?"
"He just cleans up after me. He owes me a debt for sparing his life. He's honorable. He's no sneak-in-the-night assassin." This last bit was clearly meant as an insult to Murderbasket.
"Hey, ouch! Nothing wrong with being an assassin."
