This is simply an Introduction to the story if enough people like it I will continue on.

Time period- present day. Training starts at 10, picked in secret based on a test, and are trained until they are 18. Main headquarters is in Masyaf, Syria. Each year there is a tournament to see who of each region will go on to graduate early. Their enemies are called the Reevers whose goal is to take over the world. Every assassin and assassin in training has at least one hidden blade, some choose to modify it and or add another. Every region teaches at least English to their trainees.

Anastasia Falkenrath is a female assassin in training in the Germany division; she is at the top of her class. She is 17 with a lean build, pale skin, blue eyes, and blonde hair that she cuts short and pins back. She is extremely light on her feet which makes her very fast and excels in climbing and stealth. She is a master of throwing knives and swords. She struggles with any kind of fire arm unless it's heavily silenced but would rather use a bow first. She struggles with being in teams as she is used to having to prove her worth to others. She's headstrong and stubborn and is not afraid to hold her own even if she could be outmatched.

Arkady Shankov is a male assassin in training in the Russian division; he is at the top of his class. He is 17 with a muscled but lean build, tall, pale skinned, brown hair, and brown eyes. He is light and fast on his feet excels in climbing and fire arms. His favorite weapon is his sniper rifle and hasn't missed a shot since his recruitment. He struggles with his short sword and would rather use a gun. He wants very badly to graduate but struggles with getting along with those who are not Russian.

Leonardo Achetta is a male assassin in training in the Italian division where the assassin's first started. He is 17 with a muscled build, tanned skin, brown hair, and brown eyes. He is fast but struggles with climbing. He specializes in hand to hand combat. His favorite weapon is his two-handed broad sword. He struggles with long range weapons as he doesn't see the point. He's a bit of a ladies man, in the sense that he adores them and they usually adore him.

It's the annual tournament between the eight regions; Italy, USA, Germany, Russia, Caribbean, Brazil, South Africa, and Australia. Everyone arrives to the coliseum under the cover of darkness, the competitors, one man and one woman from each division and the leaders of each region. It's a time for the assassin's to gather, older veterans to see the new recruit and some even to bet on who will win and who will be out the soonest. The three favorites for this year are Leonardo Achetta of Italy-with the home field advantage-, Arkady Shankov of Russia, and Anastasia Falkenrath of Germany. Each has different styles and different personalities. Welcoming ceremonies that evening give everyone a chance to mingle, place final bets, and size up the competition. Styled to match something similar to the Olympics each competitor from the region carries its nation's flag and the regions seal to be hung with pride in the arena during the tournament. The only rules for the fights are no killing and no outside interference. One can back out at any time and go back to their regions base, but no one ever has at least not without a fantastic fight first. After the formal ceremony there is a dinner in which most of the competitors stay with who they traveled with. Arkady stuck with his Russian friends and fellow region assassins sneering at anyone who came close to him. Leonardo enjoyed the food and mingled with many of the others, mostly the women.

"Ciao atutti belli." He greeted to Anastasia as she looked at the food on the table. The German in turn glared at him grabbed a drink and sneered,

"Abstoßende Schwein." Before walking away with a roll of her eyes, making her region companion laugh. Leonardo shrugged and went after another as she came close to him. Anastasia walked close to Arkady and just shot him a glare which he returned equally as she left the building and jumped onto the roof of the building to drink in peace.

Ciao atutti belli- Hello there beautiful

Abstoßende Schwein- Repulsive pig
