Bounty Hunter Carmine slowly crept on the tree trunk. His target, a male pig, walked happily below. He was a big gambler, and always won. Some of the wealthier wanted him gone. That's where Carmine came in. It was his job to make sure some people disappeared. Forever. He always carried three things on him: A large, deadly, and very accurate pistol, and two large hunting knives. He carefully cocked the pistol and aimed carefully.
"Oh, oops." He said quietly. He screwed a silencer on to the pistol, and fired. The pig collapsed, and blood splatter decorated the tree behind him.
"Target Eliminated" He said with a smirk. He ducked behind the tree, and took a short nap, after collecting a small sample of evidence of the pigs death. He awoke to raised voices.
"Dammit!!! It's Carmine again."
"How can we know?"
"Just look!!!! No other assassin carves their initials next to their victim!!!"
Carmine chuckled, and silently crept out. As soon as he was out of earshot of them, he dashed away with his incredible cheetah speed. He walked into a gambling room, and dropped the pigs head on the table.
"I just couldn't believe the look on his face priceless! So I brought it with me." Said Carmine.
His employer rolled his eyes. "Very well, Bounty Hunter, take your Gold and go"
"Actually......I can't."
"Don't want the gold? Fine, I'll keep it"
"No, no, that's not it. See,someone else actually wants YOU dead. I kill you, I get their money, and ALL of your money."
All the color drained from his employers face. "You wouldn't-"
Carrmine rushed forward, and slashed at his throat with his knife.
"Pleasure doing business with you, and I trust I'll meet you again in The Digestion someday."
