As he thought about it and his thought was broken by Octavia coming home with a bledding leg and got reddrick attention and worried and rush to her.
As he help her inside and getting her into a bed he panic and not knowing what to do, Octavia Laugh.
''don't worry reddrick is just a flesh wound'' Tavi said revealing her wound that was fatal.
As reddrick try find medical supplies around the cabin he heard two pony guards outside the cabin.

''HEY GUYS I FOUND A BLOOD TRAIL AND IT LEAD TO THAT HOUSE'' the guard buddy screamed.
As reddrick look out the windowof the cabin he saw three pony guards and saw tavi outcold in the bed bleeding out he was panicking and didn't know what to do, he close his eyes and heard a voice ''Open your eyes young one.'' As he opened his eyes his vision was different he got scared at first but the calmed down when saw Octavia body In A Color of A Light Blue and then look behind him and saw the guards that was coming close to the cabin a color red but he was impress cause he could see them threw the wall.
As he looked to his right he saw a wall but this wall was color yellow he got close to it and wonder why is this wall yellow until he heard tavi voice.
''Pull the leaver reddrick there is a underground basement take me there'' Tavi said with a weak voice.
As reddrick pulled the leaver he saw the wall opening and saw stair that went down,without taking anychances he grab Octavia and pulled her downstairs and closing behind the secret entrance. He was in a secret basement that he never knew, he close his eyes and his vision returned to normal.
He was confuse what happen but didn't had time to think while he heard voices coming from upstairs.
''Have you found anything'' the guard said that was searching the whole cabin
''No not really, she mighty of escape'' the guard friend said.
''Damn it, well let go inform king Julies'' the guard comented and hearing hoof step exiting the cabin.
As he heard them going away he open the secret passage and inspect if no one around to see if the coast is clear. He then grab Octavia and put her in the bed and realize she was hurt pretty badly in her legs. Reddrick found medical kits in the caminit from the kitchen and patch up Octavia.

Reddrick smiled and felt relive that tavi alright but also in question of what is going on, as he stood up and walk away from Octavia and was still confuse about something, what was that vision he had and what meant the colors he saw in the guards,Octavia and the wall, he was in deep thought but the thought was broken when he saw a logo in Octavia uniform, making him realize that he saw that logo before. As he was about to touch it he heard the secret basement opening.
At first he was scared but curious whats going on, as he look at Octavia that she was still resting he walk tore the stairs and went down, as he went down ,he heard the same voice contacting him ''Theres a candle in your right my boy use it and then follow the light.'' As reddrick saw the candle and light it he saw a shelf in the end of the room. He went closer and closer andsaw that their was something on top of the shelf, as he finally got close he saw a book that shows the same logo and at the bottom saying The Brother hood with curious he open the book and read it.
On the same day Octavia woke up in the morning and got up and realize she was in bed and injured then saw the basement entrance was open , as she tries to get up she couldn't stand up well and saw reddrick coming out the basement entrance with the book, she saw reddrick eyes and it seems he read everything about the brotherhood and sisterhood of the assassins.
''My Father he was one?'' Reddrick question Octavia , making stood silent and sigh at herself.
''Yes Young your father wsa one of us and It seems that he held a great secret that held the weakness of the templars'' Octavia answer, Making reddrick look at the book and look at Octavia as he walk tore tavi and gave her the book and then just walk outside, she felt that he was in a lot of pain as she tries to walk downstairs to the basement she put the book in its place and also she hung her outfit next to making her walk upstair and look back at her duties. ''Im getting too old for this all I really wanted was to play instruments not become part of this.'' She said in her thoughts closing the door and looking at reddrick and seems that he was in deep thoughts.
Two years later
Reddrick seems to grown to a teenage stallion and also helping Octavia around the house, reddrick realize she was like a mother figure to him now all does days she took care of him and raise him like her own and giving up the brotherhood until one day. Reddrick was cleaning outsided the cabin and saw two married couple with their daughter. As he smiled Octavia came back from ponyville getting some groceries.
''Hey there reddrick can you come and help me with these'' tavi said while breaking reddrick thoughts and helping Octavia.
''Sorry tavi I was looking at those two ponies and their daughter they seem quite happy'' reddrick said while helping the groceries.
''Ah yes ,I bump into them in the village and talk to them with a tea and told me their daughter wanted be a musician one day'' tavia said while saw the family walking and smiling.
As reddrick smiled and continue helping Octavia , he felt something in his chest that something was about to happen but he ignored it and heard tavi saying she needs help organizing her bookshelf.
On the fateful night reddrick and Octavia was sleeping and then reddrick couldn't sleep of a mysterious light as reddrick woke up and got up from his bed and look outside reveling flames not far from their cabin, reddrick panick and realize the family that walk past tavi and him live not far from there. Without thinking he ran outside and went tore the place that was on fire. As he arrive in the scene honestly he was too late he saw flames burning houses and ponies getting burned and screams everywhere making him remember his dark past of losing his family until he heard laughter not far where he standing.
He ran tore the laugh and saw three guards with red crosses in their chest, and reddrick saw they family from earlier. As he was about to stop them he was stop by Octavia and tackle him form behind.
''What the?, tavi please we need to help'' reddrick said
''Shush reddrick we aren't suppose to be here and im in no condition to fight them'' tavi said while she looks at the family that they are hostage.
''But-'' reddrick got cut off when he heard a scream and witness the father of the family getting stab.
As reddrick witness the tragedy that was going on Octavia held a hoof in his mouth so he wont make a sound, as he saw one by one getting murder he had a vision of his own family getting murdered the same, the guards laugh and left the scene.
The fire went out and reddrick saw the three bodies infront of him, whileoctavia was behind him. As he remember why they did this he look to the skies and saw the beautiful night and the smell of smoke ,he turn around and walk tore tavi.
''Give them a proper burial please'' Reddricksaid while leaving the scene and returning to his cabin.
Octavia turn around and look at him and saw that he was in pain she did what he wanted given them a burial, as Octavia grab their bodies and buried them one next to the other she close her eyes and said few words.
'' Requiscat in Pace(Rest in Peace)'' Octavia said while leaving the area.
As Octavia got close to her cabin she saw the basement door open,as she saw it open she went inside and went downstairs and saw reddrick touching her outfit.
''Why are is there murders that aren't necessary and they take innocent life away without them living their life, that filly was brought to this world for what. To been taken away not knowing what life is in equestria'' reddrick said when tears came down in his cheek making Octavia knowing what he meant by those words.
''Reddrick I couldn't help them cause the condition of how my legs is'' tavi said while reddrick smiled and kept crying.
''I Know tavi it wasent your fault'' Reddrick said while walking away from the uniform but was stop by Octavia.
''I.. I Can train you but it wont be easy you need to carry on my work as a assassin and be loyal to the brotherhood'' tavi said while she looks into reddrick eyes.
''But why you want to train me?'' Reddrick questions

While he look outside and still see smoke from the small village that the family was murder he look back at Octavia and knowing it would be dangerous along the way but also wanting no pony to suffer of a love one.
''When can we get started'' reddrick said while tavi reveal a smile on her face.
