chapter 2 yay!!

Foxx had taken the girl up onto the roof tops. She was worried that the girl would fall at first but miss oriental kept her balance better than Foxx did who usually tended to trip over her over own feet or slip on the wooden beams. They stopped on a random roof top, the guards had given up chasing them a while ago.

"why an I helping you…I don't even know your name…." Foxx said in-between gulps of air as she tried to catch her breath again. She never ran so fast before. Yeah she was fast generally any way, her thin build and lightweight, made her that way. But the speed the two of them went over the rooftops was just insane.

"Mei-Su" the oriental girl said as she looked at Foxx.

"my names Foxx. Your not from around here are you Mei?" Foxx asked the girl as she decided that sitting on a box would be a good idea. Mei shook her head and smiled. "I from land of dragons and ying-yang bears." her answer to the question was odd but Foxx nodded any way. The girls accent was something she had never before heard.

"I'll see you around sometime, if im ever allowed out of the house again…" Foxx said as she climbed down a ladder leading off the roof. She would be in deep trouble if she wasn't back at the bureau by sunset.

She was almost there when she was stopped by a noise behind her.

"new friend don't leave Mei in big city own her own." it was Mei who has spoken, she had followed Foxx from the roof tops.

"I have to I cant take you with me. Your worse than that stray dog that followed me home once. I wasn't allowed to keep it, so I doubt you'll be allowed to go with me." Foxx said looking at Mei who seemed upset. "Mei I cant….I'm sorry….I'd love to have someone my own age to talk to but, I'll be ok so Mei good bye!!" Foxx said stalking off in what ever direction she was originally going in. the last 3 words had sounded more spiteful than she had wanted them to, but at least the girl stopped following her.

"when we get back to Masyaf, im going to find someone with enough patience, to watch over you while im out on missions. Your not coming with me anymore." Altair said as he walked beside the black horse Foxx was currently sitting on. Foxx was listening but wasn't happy about it. She never was she hated staying in one place fer to long. But right now she was staring at the back of the horses head so she see if it tried to bite or head-butt her. she never liked horses, in-fact she hated them. They always tried to bite, stamp on, kick or head butt her when she got close enough for them to do so. So she was keeping a close eye on this one.

But it didn't do any of those things, rather it reared up causing Foxx to fall of it.

"I hate horses….." she shouted as she sat on the ground, before glaring at her father who was looking at her. " and I hate you even more!" she finished as she glared at him. "fine I'll take the horse and you can walk." Altair said as he mounted the horse and rode away. Leaving Foxx sitting in the dirt growling like… well a fox and glaring at the spot where her father and the horse once were. She was still growing and mumbling made up words to her self as she walked after them

Altair had stopped about 100 yards away, it was dark in the country side at night and wolves walked about looking for easy meals. he was not about to leave a 13 year old own her own. Even if she was training to be an assassin like him there was no way she could fend off a pack of starved wolves by herself.

After that it took half hour to persuade Foxx to sit in front of him on the horse, and ten minutes after she had agreed to, she had fallen asleep. He couldn't go very fast the horse would never gallop like it would normally any way with 2 people on its back. Altair didn't really mind though, just the arm he had round Foxx to stop her falling was going numb and he was also tired. They were almost home though, the gates to Masyaf could be seen in the distance.

"look there he goes over the hills and far away, on another mission again today, yet while dads away the fox will play, the games called how long will it take to make the carer go away…" Foxx rhymed as she watched her father leave. she sat on the window sill in her room that over looked the castle town. Foxx was also thinking of ways to annoy the carer to the point were they either gave up with looking after her or went to get someone else to do the seemingly impossible job.

"1234 now im walking to the door, now lets see who will win, me or the carer, so its time to let the fun begin." she sang as she got down from her window and headed to and out of her bedroom door.
