The Saharan night swallowed the oasis in silence, save for the haunting melody drifting from the water's edge. Simon 'Ghost' Riley moved like a shadow, his skull mask reflecting the moonlight as he closed in on the target. There she stood, draped in scarlet silk, oblivious to the predator stalking her.

Just the quiet click of the mechanism and the hiss of the dart slicing through the humid air, aimed true at her exposed back.
