A/N:Summary explains most... Alright... so just a random idea that came to mind. WARNING! There are two OC's in the story, and if you don't like reading stories w/ OC's, then I recommend you don't read this one... For everyone else: I do not own AC, as much as I wish I did... but I do own Rubi Uchiha (Don't ask... many years ago I created her... I'm stickin' w/ her.) And my friend owns Kanna Shizuka.
Oh, and I am really sorry if I have a few mistakes, I've caught myself a few times switching from third to first... ^^'... I try to read it over and over to make sure I don't have that problem, but if I missed one (or two, or [insert number]), I apologize. I normally don't do that, but this story's got it's quirks... LOL Enjoy! :D
Of Apples and Oranges
Arrival
Her eyes searched the new area, crossing from right to left, then left to right.
"Well?"
"And how in the HELL DID WE GET HERE?"
Rubi looked about. "I don't know."
Kanna growled, her muttering inaudible.
"Oh, come on. It's great!"
"No it's not. If you could take us anywhere, why Venice? Why not Paris? I mean, I know FRENCH! Not ITALIAN!"
"I dunno…" Rubi sighed. "Perhaps we could go?"
"YES!" Kanna spazzed.
Rubi held up the strange device she had found that transported the duo to Venice, Italy. Someone ran by and snatched it out of her hands. "What the? Hey! Get back here!"
Kanna glared at Rubi. "You're kidding, right?"
"What?"
"What year are we in? It looks like…" Kanna looked around. "Really old."
"I gotta get it back…" Rubi growled to herself, running after the thief.
"Roobs, stop. You're not getting it back."
"B-but! I have to!"
"We'll get it back, just not now. Now, work your Italian to find out what year it is."
"In the year of our lord, 1487…"
Rubi's ears perked as she heard a nearby herald. "Oh fuck…"
"Yep… I heard it too…" Kanna growled.
Realization came to Rubi as she looked around. "Fuck! C'mon! Let's go!"
"Go? Where?"
"Avanti!" Rubi growled as she yanked Kanna in the direction she was going.
"I don't know what you just said!"
After running through alleys and streets, Rubi and Kanna stopped at a portal. "Sangue di Giuda!"
"Eh?"
"Cazzo! I'm so nervous!" Rubi looked at her hands, shaking.
"What? What?" Kanna growled, confused.
"You'll like this…" Rubi knocked on the door.
"Wait! You don't even…"
"Eh, Maestro Da Vinci?"
A man, about thirty-four, came to the door. "Si? How may I be of service?"
"HOLY SHIT IT'S LEONARDO DA VINCI!" Kanna yelped.
Leonardo blinked, scared. "Va bene… who are you?"
"Ahem, I am Rubi Uchiha, and this is mio amico, Kanna Shizuka."
Kanna continued to smile wide.
Leonardo nodded. "And what business do I have with you?"
"Um… Well… Y-you see…" Rubi looked around. "We found this weird object and it transported us here. We're from the future…" She said, risking the look she was sure to receive.
"And they say I'm crazy…" Leonardo muttered. He looked past the duo. "If you'll excuse me, I have work to do." He shut the door.
"I JUST MET LEONARDO DA VINCI!"
Rubi sighed. "Alright, so…"
"SQUEEEEE!"
"Calma, calma!" Rubi shook Kanna's shoulders.
A man walked by the duo, a white hood over his head.
Rubi looked at the man as he turned to hide his face. Her eyes widened. "Merda! Holy shit!"
"What?" Kanna asked, calmed.
"He did exist…" She muttered to herself.
"Who? Oh… are you talking about-"
Rubi slapped her hand over Kanna's mouth. "Shh… don't say his name…"
Kanna growled, asking a question.
"Because… if you do, then he'll kill us."
"Oh…" Kanna made out bleakly.
"So, that means… oh shit…" She began towards the hooded man.
"Hey! Rubi!" Kanna yelled after her. "You said…"
Rubi stepped out in front of the hooded man. "Messer, I need your help."
The man roiled his brows and began walking away again.
"Per favore! I need your help! It's very important."
"What could be so important to bother me?"
"The Apple."
The man's eyes widened. "How do you know of the Apple?"
"Alright, you need to listen to me, and please understand me… My friend and I found an Apple of Eden during our time. Me, being ignorant, touched the damned thing, and it transported us to where we are now. When we arrived, I attempted to transport us back, but someone ran by and stole the Apple from me… I need your help to get it back before it falls in Templar hands!"
"You know of the Templars?"
"Si, I do."
The man smirked, laughing. "Alright, strangely dressed girl… Go on now…"
"But Ezio! Ezio Auditore da Firenze!"
The man's breath hitched. "How do…"
"No time for that!" Rubi growled. "Will you help me?"
Ezio nodded. "Va bene. I'll help. What did he look like?"
"He had on dark clothing, and a white rag on his… right arm. It looked like he was injured. He wasn't well dressed, but he could've been hired by the Borgia."
"You even know of Borgia?" Ezio gasped.
"Si."
"Sangue di Giuda!" Ezio raised his hands in the air.
Kanna came over to where Ezio and Rubi were. "What the hell does that mean?"
"Christ on a bicycle." Rubi said matter-of-factly.
"Ah…"
"And who are you two?"
"I'm Rubi Uchiha. And this is mio amico, Kanna Shizuka."
"Where are you from?"
"America." Kanna said.
"America? I've no idea where that is."
"It hasn't been rediscovered yet, Ezio." Rubi said quickly.
"Alright, you know way too much! You must be a Templar!" Ezio's hidden blade sprang out quickly, and within a second it was at her throat.
"WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH!" Kanna yelped, trying to calm the situation. "Don't kill her!"
"Ezio, if I was a Templar, I'd let the thief give it to the Templars… but I want to help you get it… Assassin."
Ezio released her, withdrawing the blade. "Are you an Assassin?"
"No… I'm not."
"Then how do you know of this?"
"I'll explain later."
"Alright… First, you need to get off the streets. Come. I'll introduce you to someone who you can take refuge with."
Rubi muttered to herself as she followed Ezio. "I think we already met him…"
