LITD: Like I said on my profile, I've decided to start an Assassin's Creed fic because it's such a cool game. Also to those who don't know, since my laptop fucked up, my files have been lost so I can't update my previous fics.

Sorry to those who were reading them.

Disclaimer: I only own my OCs, nothing else…Awwww.


Where it all began…muahahahaha cough, cough

One thing to say about myself, I hate mornings. Especially really early mornings. I shuddered just thinking about them, but the annoying thing is, I have to get up at 6:30am every day for school until its Saturday which is my favourite day/my day of rest/everyone's favourite day…I hope.

But finally, the day has arrived. Grading to receiving a black belt. Dun dun DUN.

My alarm clock screamed at me to get up and switch it off, but I couldn't be bothered. My bed was too warm and comforting to stray away from, but sadly, like all days, you have to get up at one point. Urgh.

I groaned as I sat up, the cold air was the only thing that greeted me, except the stupid alarm. The technology that betrayed mankind…In my point of view anyway. Damn things.

Shuffling up to the alarm, I batted it off the table and it collided with the floor, switching it off. That was new.

The time was 8:30am, I had two hours to get ready for the session. I huffed. I could have just gone back to bed, but now that I was awake I wouldn't get back to sleep. So I changed into my white robe, uncomfortable, but it makes the fighting easier, and put my dark brown hair into a ponytail. Usually, I would leave it down so it is just below my shoulders, but, like I said, today isn't the usual day for me.

The door creaked loudly as I stumbled out of my room to proceed to the kitchen.

Fooooooooooooooooood.

Whatever was being made smelled delicious. "Please be pancakes" I chanted to myself when I got to the archway.

A grin appeared on my face. Pancakes.

"How did you know" I said dramatically to my mom as I sat beside my younger brother, Dylan, who was too content with his share to care that I was next to him.

My mom smiled, "Well, it is a big day so I thought it would be nice to have something different for a change."

The first pancake I had was eaten in about two seconds while the other two I had covered in maple syrup. Yummy.

By the time I had finished it was 9:01am. "So that means I have-" I counted with my fingers "-an hour and a half to go? Eh, I don't know" I know, I suck at maths and I'm 18.

"Yes, you do." mom answered for me, but frowned after she began again, "But I won't be able to drive you there because I have to take Dylan to the airport" Oh yeah, I forgot he was going to a basketball camp in New York.

"You will be back in time to watch me, right?" I said eagerly.

"Of course"

"That's fine then. Besides, it's only a twenty minute walk." I replied, setting my plate at the sink.

"Oh, that means you only have about an hour then." Dylan spluttered with his mouth full.

As I went back upstairs, I smirked. I still had time to play the Xbox 360.

My room was bombsite when I entered it again, but I didn't care since I could just clean it when I got back.

I switched the console on, eager to finish Assassin's Creed before I left. I only had one more guy to kill. Robert de… something, I can't remember his second name.

The first thing I did was kill a couple of archers, then, when I got bored, scaled a few view points which then lead me into saving a citizen, most of the time I want to leave them (because I'm sadistic that way) but then I don't get scholars or vigilantes. Oh well.

"I'll see you later, Keira!" shouted mom just before I heard the front door slam shut.

It took me a while to get through every task to retrieve information about the old dushbag.

Finally I jumped over buildings, killed another archer and fell through the roof into the assassin's bureau. Malik told me about the funeral and all that jazz before giving Altair the feather.

Yay! I get to kill an old man.

Sadly, I just happened to glance at my clock.

10:15am "…Ohhhhh Fuuuuuuuck" I screamed, switching off the Xbox and dashing out the door with my duffle bag.

For the first few minutes I sprinted down the streets, faster than I've ever ran before.

'I wish I was in Assassin's Creed, and then I could just jump over the buildings' I thought to myself.

I skidded to a halt and tripped over a fallen trashcan as I went through an alleyway.

Something clicked twice. "Hand over everything you have." A low voice growled behind me.

I turned my head slowly to find a hooded man pointing a gun at me. I let out an aggravated sigh "Oh, give me break for once in my life"

"Hurry up!" he shouted impatiently, shuffling towards me.

Folding my arms, I stuck my tongue out at the man. "Never"

He smirked. "You really shouldn't have said that" Before I knew what happened, the gun flashed and let out a deafening bang. I was too frozen in fear to even think about trying to move out of the way. My body went numb and then I crumpled to the floor, into the darkness.


"Wake up, please? Hello?" a random voice echoed through the black shroud. I walked aimlessly through the darkness, trying to find a way out. The voice still rang out and after a while, it really started to piss me off.

Now I was really freaked out.

"Shut up!" I screamed back at the voice, tears flowed down my face. My legs buckled under me. Cold and alone, I lay on my back and clamped my eyes shut.

However, when I opened my eyes again, I found three tanned children hovering over me. I groaned as I sat up, my head was thumping like a hammer against a door. The weird thing was the kids that had been staring at me were gone.

They had left me alone in an alleyway, but this one was different to the one I was attacked in, it was white and damn, was it hot.

To my dismay, I noticed my bag was gone, but my robe was still intact. The sound of people surrounded me and when I looked at the mouth of the alley, there were people walking past in robes! Some even had pots on their heads…Weird, but funny.

"Wow, they need to get some fashion sense." I muttered as I stood up from the floor. I never noticed the heat until I blew my bang out of the way. I was sweating buckets. Since I didn't have a clue where I was I thought that my best option was to explore.

I exited the alley to be greeted with the blistering sun, which almost blinded me, and, to my annoyance, stares from passing people.

I brushed them off and followed the nearest crowd until I came to a fountain and sat on the closest bench.

'Where the hell am I?' I wondered, dazed by the sudden thought that I wasn't home. Hell, I didn't even think that I was in the same world.

Another sound caught my attention, clattering metal. I glanced to my left to watch with wide eyes, a soldier stroll past, sword in hand, shouting, "Where are you?" in a familiar foreign accent.

"No, I can't be…can I?" Assassin's Creed?

I got up and walked the opposite way just in case he was looking for a fight. I fazed out, wondering how I got here.

Was it that man? Was it because I wished for it? 'Why the hell didn't I wish for a new bike instead?' I scolded myself.

I was too caught up in the argument with myself that I didn't notice a drunken man stumble up to me and barged past, causing me to plough into someone.

"Sorry I-"

"HERITIC! I'll have your head!" the soldier shouted and had drawn his sword before I could think of an excuse.

Run. Run as fast as you can, my mind kept telling me…in Donkey's voice. Go Shrek 2!

Before I knew it, two more men shuffled towards me, armed to kill. Great, I've only been here for two minute and already I've made enemies.

I turned and ran as fast as I could, pushing past random people that got in my way. The soldiers behind me were catching up so I turned right at the next corner.

Just my luck. Dead end. Sweatdrop.

Sadly, the soldiers blocked my path so I couldn't escape. I stuttered random words out of fear, searching for something to fight back with. "Err…um, hi…"

"We shall kill you for showing your face in our presence, assassin." the lead soldier said. I noticed that this commotion had drawn some attention.

Wait a minute. I glanced down at my attire. Hey, I did look like an assassin. Cool.

I mentally slapped myself. 'Of course it's not a good thing. These guys want to kill you.' Great, now my mind has betrayed me.

Out of desperation, I grabbed the nearest thing to me…which had to be a cucumber.

The guards gave me a weird look. I just shrugged, "Better than nothing"

I quickly looked around me to find a way out of this mess until I noticed a low pole. That's it, my plan was use the, uh, cucumber and run.

Simple.

My way of using the cucumber was throwing it at the nearest guard. I spun and ran towards the pole before grabbing it to pull myself up to the roof. When I glanced back, the guard that I had thrown the cucumber at was rolling around on the floor holding his groin.

My eyes widen and I tried, and failed, to hold in the laugh. Basically, I pissed myself. Metaphorically of course.

"Fear the cucumber of doom!" I called to them between breaths. My fun didn't last long, the rest of the men were already advancing on me. "Bye"

I ran in the first direction that I turned to; glancing back every so often to find more guards had joined the chase. 'Like cat and mouse' I thought to myself.

Suddenly, an arrow blurred past my face, literally missing me by an inch. It took me with such surprise that I stumble back towards the edge and gravity pulled me down. I crashed through a stall below, blowing up dust and debris from the impact.

To put it into words, it hurt like hell.

Without much time to think, a hand grabbed my collar and yanked my battered body out of the wreckage to come face to face with the guard I had hit cough in the balls.

"Did you think you could get away from us?" he spat at my face and threw me to the ground. By now escape was impossible for one reason.

I was surrounded by soldiers and, well what do you know, an audience.

"Well? What do you have to say?" he growled at me.

Even though I was in pain, I still found it hard trying not to laugh. "How's the nether regions?" I snickered. Even some of the others, guards and audience, chuckled with me.

His eyes narrowed. The next thing I knew was that his leg connected with my side, forcing me to cry out.

"I believe its time for you to die." He said darkly and lifted his sword.

Through the tear filled eyes, I watch as a white figure rose from the roof behind the soldiers and reached for his shoulder.

Could it be?

In a swift motion, a piece of metal was thrown and struck the man in the neck before he had the chance to strike me. People screamed in terror as the man fell lifeless to the floor while the rest of the guards turned to the one responsible for their leader's death.

The man in white leaped down from the rooftop and threw four more daggers, each dropping their targets as soon as they hit.

Without taking a breather, he had drawn his sword and stabbed an awe-stricken soldier in the stomach. When he removed his weapon, two more ganged up on him, one in front and one behind.

I was mesmerised, he made it look like a dance, blocking attacks and countering with swipes to the stomach before facing the rest of the group. My trance was broken when a soldier managed to slice my saviour's shoulder, staining his white robe red from the blood.

I couldn't just lie here and do nothing.

I scanned the ground, looking for something I could to help. "Come on, I managed to get away using a cucumber" I growled out loud.

Then it dawned on me. The dagger. I crawled towards the body of the one who kicked me. I didn't think, I reacted. The small dagger was thrown from my hand, not straight, but it hit a guard in the leg so that'll do.

"Take that asshole!" I screamed at him as he collapsed to the floor in agony.

By now, all of the group that had pursued me were dead.

It took me a few seconds to register that the man in white was standing over me, staring at me with confused eyes.

When I saw his face, I managed to put a name with his face and gasped when I realised what that name was.

"I think you better come with me" he said, helping me to my feet.

Altair.
