Elizabeth P.O.V_
"Lets get going!" Liz whispered urgently.
"Wait! We need to get my supplies!" Will whispered back.
"Fine. But do it quickly."
Will rummaged through some barrels and found his weapons, armor, and assassins jacket.
"lets go!" He whispered after he'd slipped on his stuff.
They scrambled through corridors quickly and silently. They were at the door when six guards heavily armed with pikes, rifles, and thick, black, iron, armor slipped out of the shadows.
"STOP!" The guard in the center command echoed through the hallways, slowly losing volume as it moved.
"Oh...No." Will Muttered angrily.
"These guys are no problem, Will." Liz said "Watch and learn."
Liz scrambled up a wall grabbed a handhold and started to scale the wall. after she got about 20 feet up she leaped from the wall and landed on a beam going from one side of the room to the other.
"COME DOWN HERE!" The middle guard said.
Will could make out a red strip of cloth wrapped around the middle guards arm marking him as the captain.
"GET DOWN NOW!" The chief screamed as he readied his rifle.
Liz pulled a cylinder of string out of her pocket, cut off a long length of it, wrapped one end around her hand, and another end around a rock, and hurled it at the guards.
The guard chuckled "HA! THAT TRICK WON'T WORK!" As he said it he aimed his gun at the rock and fired splitting the rock in half and ricocheting into liz's calf.
Liz yelped in pain as she fell off of the rafter.
"No! Liz!" Will screamed. He caught her right before she hit the ground, causing him and Liz to go tumbling backwards, Liz ending up lying half on top of Will.
Will scooped up Liz and screamed at the guards,"MALEDETTO BASTARDO!" (You bloody bastard in italian.) "YOU WILL PAY!"
William P.O.V
Will bolted down the barracks corridor holding Liz in his arms crying silently, "Why... Why."
"It's okay... Im fine." Liz muttered. Her words were filled with pain.
"Don't try to talk." Will commanded.
Will scanned the corridor for an exit. after a bit of running up and down hallways, testing exits doubling back, he found a doorway into a courtyard leading to the market he bolted through it. He almost dropped Liz when he saw a bloody corpse with a red robe and a crown and two huge knife holes in its neck. Then he remembered the events of the morning. It made him sob a little harder.
"Why did I take this mission!?"he muttered regretfully.
"That's not the question Will, it's Why did WE take this mission." Liz said.
"We need to get you to a doctor." Will said.
Liz winced and blood started to trickle from the side of her mouth.
"Oh Gods." Will said nervously "I think that bullet was poisoned!"
Will sprinted, as quickly as he could carrying a poisoned girl in his arms, to a doctor.
When they got to the doctor he saw the state of pain Liz was in and immediately began to pull out tools. Will laid her gently onto a table and the doctor went to work. After a few minutes Will saw the doctor pulling out the bullet, Liz started moaning in pain and coughing causing more blood to come out of her mouth. After a few more minutes the wound was wrapped in a bandage and treated with medicine. As Liz began to get up Will realized the real problem: There was an arrow point in her back!
"Oh no" He said.
"What?" The doctor said.
Will pointed at her back "An arrow must have hit her as she fell."
"Darn." The doctor said as he began another procedure.
After the procedure was finished Will tossed the doctor a pouch full of at least 1000 florins
"Here, you've just saved a life." Will said
"Maybe a few generations, coming from the way you look at her." The doctor said with a grin.
