AN: Hello! This is Tangledfire, and yes i am once again attempting to enter the world of fanfiction writing! Currently I am obsessed with Assassin's Creed, particularly Ezio and Leonardo. this fanfiction is actually a bit of a co op between Ivy and myself. (but I all the actual writing she just reads it then gives it a stamp of approval!) This is the first fanfic in a series that I am starting. Each story will be based in a different Assassin's Creed game and will incorporate my OTP from each game! So I hope you will enjoy!
I will update weekly, every Friday, unless I am gone, in which case I will inform you all.
Disclaimer: I do not own Assassin's Creed, I do however own Lovino and Rosetta the OCs.
Chapter 1
It was nice day sunny, warm, but still with a hint of winter due to the cold breeze and the lack of any leaves on the few trees. most of Venice's residents were using the warm weather to their advantage, by scurrying about to and fro shopping, fishing, or just socializing.
However, there was one resident who was not taking advantage of the oddly springlike weather. No instead he was shut up in his workshop busy painting away completely unaware of the world outside.
In fact Leonardo da Vinci was so unaware of the outside world that he almost did not hear the knock at his door. Fortunately the knock came just as he was taking a pause in painting to admire the work he had done so far. At the sound of three sharp knocks the artist, turned to the door, wondering who it could be. Setting \ his brushes and palate on top of one of the tables already over flowing with objects, he rushed across the wood floor toward the entrance of his workshop.
Rapidly attempting to fix his cloths and hair, encase it was a wealthy costumer, he opened the door.
Instead of a wealthy costumer, he found two woman dressed in familiar white robes.
"Ah, ciao?" he greeted them with a nervous smile.
"Ciao," the taller of the two greeted kindly. While the other shoved past Leonardo and into his work shop.
"Danm you are messy,"
Turing to glare at her, he put his hands on his hips. "Excuse me?"
From behind him the other girl sighed, "I am sorry Mr. Leonardo, my friend does not have the best manners,"
"I can see that," he turned back to the more polite girl who was still standing in the door way. "Who are you?"
"Ah well I'm Rosetta Verde and-" the rude girl interrupted her as she picked up one of the many papers on the floor and looked at it. "And, I am Lovino Incendio,"
"That is a boys name," Leonardo stated, confused.
"I know!" Lovino growled, "Anyways, Rosetta and I require a place to stay while we are here, seeing as Antonio says he has no room at the thieves guild, he suggested we try you, sense apparently you are friends with us assassins," she put the paper in her hands down on the table.
"We can pay for logging, or we could help clean," said Rosetta from behind him.
"And by the looks of it you could really use help with the whole cleaning thing," Lovino snickered.
"Well," the artist shook his blond head, "seeing as you have no where else to stay, I can not just turn you away, how long will you be staying?"
"Until our work here is done," Lovino had moved and was not taking in the painting, that Leonardo had been working on before the two had interrupted him. "This is quite good," she pointed at it.
From behind him Rosetta finally entered the work shop, pulling her white hood off of her head as she did so. Her brunette hair fell in waves down her back from where it had been trapped by the hood. Smiling she turned her blue eyes, that had earlier been concealed by her hood, to Leonardo's own. "Thank you so much for this,"
"It is no problem," he smiled back. After all Leonardo enjoyed being kind to others, and as assassins they where friends of Ezio, and Ezio's friends where his friends.
Rosetta joined her smaller friend in admiring the artists masterpiece, while she ran her eyes over the painting she reached up and yanked down Lovino's hood as she gave a squeak of surprise.
"Hey! What was that for?!"
Rosetta laughed. "It's rude to wear a hood in doors,"
"But now he knows what I look like," she glared at Leonardo, and ran a hand through her messy durty blond hair. "I was trying to keep up a facade of mystery,"
Her friend just raised a skeptical eye brow while smirking.
"If it makes you feel better," Leonardo spoke up. "I am still feeling rather mystified,"
With a sideways smirk, Lovino turned her dark eyes to him. He watched sparks of mischief flash through her eyes. "Good, let's keep it that way,"
