You ambush Ginchiyo

After an unsuccessful invasion against her neighbour land, the lady of lighting Ginchiyo falls back with what little troops she has to her own castle. Being bested in combat never put her in the best of moods and as such she quickly retreats into her castle room to think about the battle leaving her ministers to sort out rebuilding her army.

"Blast how could they have seen my ambush troops? I swear we dealt with all their spies" the lighting warrior said to herself as she paces up and down her bedroom. Dressed in her full battle armour as she wonders nobody would expect an **** attempt after such a battle left both sides tired and out of men yet for you this was the perfect opportunity. As a ninja without a master you made your living taking out **** contracts with any lord you could especially ones that just had a major battle like Ginchiyo's last target who happy took you up on your offer of dealing with her.

Of course saying and doing is two different things as a result you had to take great care as you make you way into the castle of the lighting warrior as well no matter how many troops are lost in battle you knew no lord would leave their castle without guards. So first getting into the castle took a simple disguise of a merchant come to offer his goods to the lord, next the foolish guard that let you in gets a taste of your weapon before you and him switch clothes giving you access to the whole castle.

A neat trick and one that would lead you to take over from the troop guarding her room telling him that one of the minister has ordered he rest as night shifts will be more common now. The troop accept this answer leaving you finally alone with your target as you hear her pace up and down the room giving you time to work out the direction she was facing thanks to how loud the footstep are when she is near the door.

Using this to your advantage you await the time she is walking away from the door before you sneak in and dive behind her bed near the door. This of course with the noise of armour hitting the floor cause the lighting women to turn around to see her door open asking what is going on?

She marches over ready to leave when you pounce, your small dagger at her throat you order her to shut the door and say nothing which she does with a grunt before you make your next demand of her.
