The Last Rose Petal.
"They say the past defines us for who we are in the future. I've seen the horror of this world, the loss of parents, and the death of love ones. Waking up one morning to realize it can become the worst day of your life. I will find the people who ruined my life but in someway changed me into a person that I never thought I would become. They didn't only change my future but my whole life. I am Robin Colombera, and I am an assassin."
Chapter One –The Beginning.
I wake up with a shiver down my spine, my breathing is heavy "Mio dio" I whisper to myself as I gently touch my chest. It's weird I've been having the same dream for about a month now. A man In a white robe with red scarf around his waist. In the middle is a symbol but it's nothing I've never seen before. He smiles down at me and offers his hand, when I take his hand I see my life flash in front of my eyes. I see me as a baby and my mother dying slowly after my birth, the day I meet the closet friends that I will ever meet, then blood and death. It's just a horrible dream a nightmare is more like it. But always in end of the dream I see two people standing next to each other in the same outfit but somehow different. A woman and a man. I run my hand through my hair "What does this all mean" I lay back down on my bed and grab onto my pillow and try to fall back to sleep. As I was about to fall asleep from another restless night I hear someone knocking on my door "Robin it's time to wake up caro" I hear my father say through the door.
I rub my eyes "Yes father I'll be down in a second" I say back as I yawn. I hear his footsteps go down the stairs. I stretch and walk towards my window to let the sunshine hit my face. I look out to see the city of Florence. The sound of people laughing and the drama of couples. I smile as I take a deep inhale of the smell of todays beautiful day, "Ah Robin finally you are up!" I hear someone call my name. I look around but I see know one but that voice sounds so familiar "I think she's sleeping walking fratello" then I hear the laughter of the two brothers that I could never forget. I look down to see the Auditore brothers, Federico and Ezio smilling widely at me "Buongiorno pigrizia" they yell at me. I rest my chin in my hand "Burongirno, here to make my morning like always?" I say mocking them with a. Federico places his hand over his heart "Oh you shot me right in my heart mio caro" pretending to be hurt. Ezio fans his face "Oh no Penso che potrei svenire la cattura di me fratello!" he falls into his older brothers arms pretending to weep. I roll my eyes "Is their a reason why you two are so jolly?" they both nudge each other "Ah Vieri is gonna get a taste of his own medicine" Ezio says with an evil smile. Federico winks at me "Andiamo Robin" I always had a soft spot for Federico ever since we met when we were young.
Ezio on the other hand seeing the way he treats women I can never fall for that. He's too much of a flirt. I run back into my room and I quickly get dressed. I put on my white blouse with my blue blue vest. Yes I don't dress like a typical lady in Florence, but hey that's what you get when you're raised up with your friends being two boys. I slip on my brown pants with my black boots and I run down the stairs. My father grabs my arm " In un Robin fretta?" he asks me. I quickly peck him on the cheek "Si bye padre" I wave as I run out the front door. As I step out the front door, I'm greeted with two roses. One from Ezio and the other from Federico, "Grazie" I say smiling. I put both roses in my pocket to keep them safe. Federico pecks me on the cheek and puts his arm around my shoulder "Robin I don't think you should take part of this rumble" he says concern. I huff "That bastardo has been bashing my best friends family and saying nasty things about me. You honestly think I'm gonna let him go without me punching him nella sua brutta faccia?"
Ezio nods "Si, Federico we've grown up with her she can handle a fight. I mean she is practically a boy. But a very cute one." He says with a wink. I point my middle finger at him. He laughs and holds out his hand "I'm kidding now lets go!" I take his hand and look at Federico "You coming?" He shrugs "Si but I'll come later." he grabs my neck gently and kisses my forehead "Be safe" and he nods at his younger brother and walks away. Ezio pats me on the back "Ready?" I smile and nod. We run quickly through the crowd of people, I start to climb up up a house to the roof but as I look up I see Ezio has already beaten me. He may be a faster climber but I'm a better runner. He helps me up and we meet up with his friends. He gathers them up in a circle "My friends! Today we are gonna teach that Pazzi gang the true power of the Auditore's. Noi non ci arrendiamo fino a quando non arrendersi!" he yells with proud. We all yell "Per l'Auditore!" then a rock is thrown at my shoe. I look to see that the Pazzi's are here with Vieri leading them. Ezio turns around and smiles "Well I thought the Pazzi's let others do their dirty work. I grab onto his shirt "Ezio keep your mouth shut you'll only make it worse" I beg him.
Vieri starts to laugh "Si listen to her grullo, ah Robin nice seeing you here why not after I beat your dear friend why don't I show you how a Pazzi is in bed" his friends start to whistle at me. I feel my veins flare with anger. Before I can say anything Ezio puts his hand around my shoulder "Trust me Vieri, Ezio Auditore already shows her enough loving" he says with a kiss on my cheek. I can't help but feel my cheeks heat up with embarrassment. Vieri laughs "Well lets see how you handle this fight bastardo!" Ezio chuckles "Well your sister seemed quite satisfied with the handling I have her earlier" He says laughing with his friends. What an idiot "By the way Vieri from the rumors that I hear from my friends I don't think I would ever get in bed with a boy with such a pene piccolo" I use my fingers to show how small it is. I can hear Ezio laughing so hard behind me, I blow a kiss at Vieri. Vieri growls and yells at his friends "Uccidetelo!" and they begin to through rocks at us. I dodge them but Ezio isn't so lucky one of the rocks hits his lip. He begins to gush blood, I rip off a piece of my shirt to stop the blood for now "Idiota I warned you" I say shaking my head. He smiles weakly "What would I do without you?" I shrug "Onestamente non lo so" He chuckles softly "Lets go get them." I smile "Si" we join the rumble.
Two men run at me with their fists ready, I trip the first one, I use his back to pounce onto the other one onto the floor. I look over to see Ezio doing pretty well but that short moment of not focusing three men grab me. I begin to kick and punch but I can't escape they got complete control ever me. I scream " Lasciami andare bastari" they all laugh at my weakness. I smile as I take the advantage of their detraction to kick the one who is holding my legs, and bite the one who is holding my arms. They fall onto the floor, but before I can say I have the upper hand the third one grabs both my arms and puts a knife against my throat. I whimper as I can feel his hot breath against my neck. Then I hear him groan In pain with a thud and he falls to the floor. I gasp as I turn around to see Federico with a huge smile on his face "Told you to be carful" I can't help but jump into his arms. We both laugh like we are 8 years old again. He sets me down on my feet "Where is my baby brother?" I point over to Ezio who is having a bit of a tough time. We ran over, Federico grabbed one of the men and punched him straight him in the jaw. Ezio smiles when he see's his bother "So you finally came" Federico chuckles "Well I wanted to see if my little brother could handle a fight" when he says that Ezio headbutts the Pazzi member to the ground "And?" Federico smiles and places a hand on Ezio's shoulder "You have style, but endurance is what counts. Lets see how many you can ruin before they get the best of you" with that the brothers do what they know best. I giggle "Boys will be boys" Vieri screams "Fall back! Fall back! " with that everyone is gone but us and the men on the floor groaning in agony. Ezio is about to run after Vieri but Federico stops him "Hold on" Ezio glares at him "What? We almost won this!" his older brother rolls his eyes "Your lip" Ezio shrugs and touches his cut lip, I can tell he is in pain but doesn't want to say "It's just a scratch" I huff.
I stand beside Federico "Let the doctor decide" I nod in agreement "Ezio it could infected, plus it's two against one you must go" Federico grins and wraps his arm around my waist. Ezio wines "I have no money for this doctor of yours" his brother shakes his head "Wasted it on woman and wine eh?" I feel a sting of jealousy I mean I know Ezio sleeps with a lot of women but why must they disgust it in front of me. Ezio chuckles "I hardly call it wasting, lend me some florins then.. or have you done the same?" Federico smiles "Hardly anymore Brother" I give him the death glare. I have every right to get jealous over Federico, just something about him that smile of his just makes me happy to be around him. Ezio catches on and ruffles my hair with a wink "Aw is little Robin jealous" I growl at him "Chiudi quella bocca dei vostri" they know my limits. When I get mad it's really frighting sight to behold. Federico purrs in my ear "Nothing to be jealous of mio caro" I nudge him lightly in the rip. I sigh" Check them, they have to have some coins in their pockets" with that we all begin to search for enough florins to see the doctor. After we find enough coins so that Ezio can get his lip fixed we begin to walk towards the doctor. Federico and Ezio decide scale off buildings , I deicide to walk towards the doctor alone to think. I take out the two roses and I smile, I'm not complaining about my life or anything but I want to feel wanted by someone. In a romantic kind of way. Yes I do have a soft spot for Federico now but when we were younger me and Ezio use to be so close, that was until other girls became more important then me.
Without noticing I bump into someone dropping one of the roses. I start to panic but I don't see it anywhere. Then I hear Federico call my name to hurry up. I quickly jog over to the doctor "Ah Robin how's that arm of yours" I hiss at the doctor. Ezio and Federico both raise an eyebrow at me "Uh bene thanks for asking.." I say shyly knowing my spot was blown. Then the doctor turns his attention "Ah fratelli Auditore why am I not surprised" he grabs Ezio's chin to examine "You made quite a mess of yourself young man" Ezio rolls his eyes "It's nothing really" Federico puts his hands together "You must help him, that pretty face is his only asset" I can't help but giggle when he says that. Ezio glares at his brother "Fortti" swearing at his older brother. The doctor quickly fixes Ezio's lip with an ease "Their was are, now get out of here!" he says shooing them away. "Grazie" Ezio says and pays him. I yawn as I put my arms behind my head "Well today was something new eh?" Ezio nods in agreement as he puts his arm around my shoulder "Indeed, I wish they were all like this.. wait they are!" we all through back our heads and laugh. I look up to see that it's beginning to get late "Ah E tardi, I better start to get home" they offer to take me home but I shake my head "No you boys should start to head home. You don't want a lecture from your father" they both shake their heads with wide eyes.
Federico claps his hands together "Up to a little race before we go home brother? Care to join us Robin?" he asks with puppy eyes. I shake my head with a small smile "No maybe some other night, buonanotte boys. And Ezio try not to sneak into Cristina's yet again. I don't want to wake up yet again to her father screaming that he's gonna have your pene okay?" Ezio chuckles "That I can not promise" I roll my eyes "Only you Ezio would be so stupid" The younger brother puts his arm around Federico "You hear her saying I can't sneak into a beautiful woman home, then why don't I try your house instead?" he says with that devilish grin that would melt any girls heart. Federico chuckles slightly "Stick to one girl okay baby brother?" with that I give them both hugs, but Ezio grabs my hand and whispers something my ear "The offer is still up you know" with that he ears a knee into the area no man never wants to be hit. He falls to the ground with a groan "Good night then" he says looking at the floor with a wave. As I walk away I can hear the laughter from the two brothers as they enjoy their race. If only life was like this always.
