So after finally completing Assassin's creed black flag I have one thing to say
What an amazing game.
I love every moment of the story and I personally find it my fav one out of the lot. I didn't like the modern day story but that kind of died for me after the 3rd game anyways but the story of Edward was utterly amazing.
I loved Mary/James she was my fav character and I loved the idea of Edward and her together and it was so upsetting to see her die =(
So this is where this came from, I know its been done a few times but I wanted to write my own, so I hope you all enjoy and if you could please leave a review and any mistakes of criticism please pm me as I prefer that and im sorry its short but i promise it will get longer. Thank you and enjoy =)
Spoilers ahead if you havnt played the game but to be honest I don't know why you would read it is you havnt.
disclaimer: i own nothing, everything belongs to ubisoft and whoever else who makes these incrediable games
He couldn't believe what was happening, he said her name as she closed her eyes and she managed to look at him once more
"I'll be with you Kenway. I will"
He watched as she closed her eyes shut open last time, shock was written all over his face. She couldn't be gone, not now. His mouth was open in shock and he could feel his heart breaking. He loved her, even though he never admitted it but after all the years no one knew him better than her, not even his wife. He would always love Caroline but he knew within his heart that his future would never be back home in England, no matter how much he tried convincing himself. She left him when he needed her the most.
Mary believed in him when no one else did, she tried to make him see sense and tried to guide him, she couldn't leave him now, and he needed her more than ever. Even when she used her disguise as Kidd, she was always there helping him along. The amount of times he just thought of coin than loyalty and honour. He hated himself for it.
He placed his hand on her shoulder while lowering his head as his silent sorrow began, but it didn't last long as he started hearing the guard's voices. He looked to where they were coming from knowing that it wouldn't be long before they reached his location. He looked back at Mary and picked her up in his arms, refusing to leave her behind.
He held her close to his chest and started running as fast as he could. His heartbeat was frantic but he managed to remain undetected even with the longer time it took. The cries of guards kept him being careful and agile but anger was also in his mind and if it wasn't for taking Mary away from this place he would turn around and kill every last guard. He would return no matter what, they killed her and took her child he would make sure every last one of them would suffer.
After a few more close calls and more hiding spots he saw Ah Tabai's boat and started walking, knowing he was safe from the guards. He heard Anne's cries of pain as another contraction hit her. He looked at Mary wondering if she had this much pain but no matter what losing her child would have been even more painful, he hoped she at least got to see her before being taken away.
As he focused on her he had to suddenly stop, he was only a few steps away but he noticed something that he hadn't before. Since his heart was beating so fast from the adrenaline he couldn't feel it before. Against his own chest he could feel a small weak thumping, he raised his hand to her neck and checked her pulse, he let out a shaky breath of happiness as he could feel her heat still beating, It was faint but it was there.
He walked the few more steps and lowered her carefully into the boat anne saw him and saw the limp body of her friend
"whats happened to mary? Whats wrong?"
"is she gone?"
He cupped her cheek once more before letting out a huge grin and bent to kiss her forehead
"no shes alive, her hearts faint but its there. Take her to my cove in Great Inagua. I have medicine stashed there. Take care of her until I return please."
Ah tabai nodded his head and reached into the boat taking out Edwards armour
" here Edward, you might not have earned these but they suit you"
He took them happily and turned to start walking away, he stopped when he heard the boat being moved back out into the water and looked back once more. Seeing the boat start to row further away from him hurt as he was far away from her, but he had a purpose and needed information before he could return to her side.
He would be with her soon, since Mary Read was alive.
