Mercury got a knock on his apartment door. When he opened it he saw a small 8 year old girl. Her hair a familiar green but her eyes similar to his own. She held up a note to him as she looked down. The note read “dear deadbeat! I have to go on a mission. This is your daughter. ‘Yes im sure shes yours!’ Ill be back for her in a day or two. - signed Emerald.
The only words that could come to his mind when he finished reading the mint haired thief's letter, were: 'What. The. Fuck'. He glanced several times from the letter to the little girl, from the girl to the letter. She looked a lot like him and Emerald, no matter how hard he tried to look at her, the resemblance between them was undeniable. A hand ran throught silver locks, his mind racing with thoughts as he tried to process everything that was going on. "Damn it Em.." A final sigh escaped Mercury's lips before he opened the door fully for the small child to come in, without another word from him, which she shyly did. She had been probably told by her mother, or his former partner, that he was trust worthy. If not, the kid probably wouldn't be there. He never imagined meeting his first daughter like this. In fact, the assassin was still getting used to the fact that he had one.
