"Ah! There you are, son!" Said Giovanni upon seeing Ezio arrive. "I have some errands I'd like you to assist me with."

"Big brother! Big brother! Did you find anymore feathers on your way here!?" Asked the youngest Auditore as he ran up to his older brother.

"Don't pester him, Petruccio, he's probably been... busy lately." Suggested Federico, "A visit with Cristina, am I right?"

When they looked back at Ezio the looks on thier faces became that of concern, "Son? What's wrong?" Asked Giovanni.

Federico put a hand on his shoulder, "Are you alright baby brother?"

Ezio swiped the hand off and backed away, staring wide-eyed with a look of pain and horror on his face. A single tear trailed down his cheek as he looked from one ghost to the next. "No, I'm not alright." He said and fell to his knees, "I'm not..."
