~*~Attempt 1~*~

                You look up at the open window with raised eyebrow. It seemed almost too inviting. You walk up the wall, stopping to peer into the room. Doflamingo was snoring softly in his bed. You climb into the room, careful not to cast a shadow on him. Once in side, you went over and carefully lock his door. You didn't want anyone barging in while you were in the process of killing him. You turn and stealthily head over to the bed. Something catches your eye, making you freeze.
               Were those threads that webbed around his bed? 'You're kidding...' You think, going around the bed to find the other sides were covered. Keeping in the growl that scratched at your throat, you jump up and stick your boots to the ceiling. You walk over until you're standing above him. You looking down at his sleeping body, his muscles ripple with each breath. 'There are even threads above him,' You realize. Carefully unsheathing your dagger, you throw it at his heart.
                 Something happens the surprises you, and makes your heart skip a beat. You jump back, landing on the floor in front of the window. He sits up, holding the knife that was an inch away from his heart. "That was close," He comments, eyes flickering to you. 'Holy shit,' You think uneasily, touching the hilt of your short sword. "It's been a while since someone tried to kill me in my sleep... Tell me, what grudge do you have against me?" He rumbles, getting out of bed and walking to the front of his bed. You shift uneasily, and rush him. You slash with one arm,swiftly spinning behind him as you pull your seastone wire out your pocket and swing it around his throat and crossing it behind his neck.
                You wrap your legs around his torso, tightening the wire. "It's nothing personal Mr.Doflamingo, I'm just doing my job," You murmur in his ear. "Though, this would have been a lot quicker if you had just stayed asleep," You growl, more to yourself than him. You hated resorting to the wire, it was too personal. You tighten the wire some more and he lets out a soft breath. You hear shuffling in the hall then and tense. You force his body to turn to the door just as it is kicked open. "Young Master!" They gasp. 'Shit,' You think, shifting your legs to his back.
                  You release him, kicking him toward the group and diving through the other, closed window. Landing painfully, you jump over the cliff and dive into the water. You swim around the island, finding a cave to hide in midway to your ship. You crawl out of the water, collapsing in the cave. You were breathing heavily, and your shoulder was bleeding. You look over at the gash and grimaced. "Should've made sure the other window was open," You growl.
                   You sit up, taking your bandana and wrapping it around the gash. You'd have to wait in this cave for a bit until they stopped looking for you. 'I really underestimated him,' You think uneasily. Looking around, you stand up and peer around the cave. It seemed to angle up to the surface. A shadow appears from the surface. You pause, backing up toward the sea. "Found you," A familiar voice chuckles as a shape appears. 'This, really isn't my night,' You think, staring at Doflamingo warily. He rubs at the small scratch on his neck.
                     "You're quicker than I expected," He comments. His sunglasses glint as you take another step back, getting ready to dive again. "Did you hurt yourself going out the window?" He asks, raising an eyebrow at your arm. You shift warily, "Is my target concerned about me?" You huff. He pauses, "Relax, I'm just curious about who hired you," He replies, not bothering to answer your question. "Don't know them, they make a request and hand over the beri, I don't make contact with them, other than that," You tell him, turning slightly.
                       You glance toward the sea and get ready to dive. Before you can move, something wraps around your arm. You look back swiftly to see thread. "Won't you stay a bit longer?" He asks in an alluring voice. You unsheath your knife and cut the thread before diving into the water. You look back from below the waves as he crouches at the mouth of the cave with a slight frown. He extends a hand toward you. 'This is really bad,' You think, swimming away. You reach your ship, and pull yourself onto the deck. You go below deck, and tend to your arm.
                        'I've been spotted, they're aware of me...' You thought uneasily. "I should leave... But...." You debated and let out a sigh. You needed to finish the job. With a frown, you finish bandaging your arm. You crawl into your hammock, not wanting to risk getting caught heading back to the inn.
