Why he was doing this, he still wasn't sure. He could have shattered the window, jump in, slit her throat, and be out in a few minutes. Or even better, he could have waited for the target, a hunter, to go out hunting, and killed her in the forest. But noooo. His employer wanted to make an impact. He had to sneak in, and kill her in a way that made it appear that the house hadn't been broken into.
Which was why he was on his knees, trying to use a newly bought set of thief's tools. He had a general idea of how to use them, but theory and practice were very different. He shifted, and tried again, this time applying more force in a different direction. He was rewarded with a click.
Smirking, he slipped the pick back into his pocket, and opened the door slowly. He paused as it creaked, and froze, worried. Luckily, no one came. He slipped in, and closed the door behind him.
Certain that his target was not waiting with a pan to hit him on the head, he stripped off his clothes, and shifted into his Dhani form.
He hissed softly in relief as he slipped back into his natural form. How he loved this form. Looking around, he could smell the woman in her bed. He smirked, and headed off towards the bedroom.
