I'm Stronger Than You Think
Chapter 1: No Focus
I admired him from afar. He seemed so close yet so out of my reach. What would someone like me have to do to be with someone like him. An Auditore. It's hard for assassins to fall in love. Mostly out of fear of dying and leaving behind a grief stricken family. Always going on missions; unsure if you'll return. It's a life too stressful for most spouses to handle.
"Lia, what are you doing?" Ezio said suddenly behind me. I jumped. How did he get behind me? "Uh, nothing sir." I hope he didn't realize I was watching him. "Hmmm..." Yup he figured it out! "Well instead of spying on me how about you start your training." He said smiling. Damn it, nothing gets past him. "Yes sir." I said blushing. I ran to the other end of the courtyard to meet with my mentor, Dante. Ezio only trained people who had 'true potential', whatever. I have potential...don't I?
"Lia, you're late." Dante yelled at me. "So." I replied, defiantly not in the mood for a lecture. I tried to focus on training with Dante but I couldn't help constantly glancing over at Ezio and his pupil, Diego. Diego was so lucky to be able to train under Ezio. Just as I turned my attention back to Dante he punched me (pretty hard) in the face. I hit the ground and blacked out.
I slowly opened my eyes; my vision still a bit blurry. Once I regained full consciousness I realized it was Ezio kneeling over me. "Are you alright, Lia?" He asked me. His beautiful golden eyes full of worry. "Oh, yes I'm fine." I replied and quickly sat up, which made me a bit dizzy. Dante and Diego were kneeling on either side of Ezio. "Why did you hit me that hard, jerk!?" I yelled at Dante. "That's what you get for paying more attention to Ezio than me." Dante replied with a smirk. I glared at him, my cheeks burning.
Ezio helped me up and we all walked back to the villa for a break.
Hope you enjoyed; more chapters to come.
