A Hope in Hell [Metanoia/D&D]
Title: A Hope in Hell
Author: myeerah
Rating: worksafe
Prompt: Leelu and Star with the title, "A Hope in Hell"
Word Count: 100
Characters: Star Tyrian (Metanoia by Jesse Hajicek), Leelu (D&D)
Notes: I'm picturing Star in his early days in the business, just starting to grow his hair out. Leelu is my sociopathic rogue/assassin that I played from level five to fifteen over the course of four years in a D&D campaign. This is written under the influence of the funeral I attended this morning.
Summary: Poor guy doesn't have a chance.

“He’s mine,” the woman hissed. “I always complete my contracts.”
“Ditto,” Star said flatly.
They looked down at the man they’d both been hired to kill.
Star fished a coin from his pocket. “Flip you for him?”
The man curled tighter into his protective crouch and hoped they took enough time for witnesses to put in an appearance.
