Yes, it was a colonial dress that I was now wearing. The aqua blue glowed brightly in the bright sun that streamed through the evergreen trees.
"Gosh! Not so -," I coughed, trying to take in as much air as I could," tight!"
I glared out the window as the female helper was tightening the stay I had to wear. A few neatly curled pieces of my dark brown hair pushed past my ear and to the front of my face.
"Not to worry, we're finally done."
I sighed and lifted the upper half of my body so I could return to my straight position. The female then moved to the chair that kept my dress from touching the gown. I shifted my body uncomfortably. I'd always wanted to wear big, puffy dresses from back in the days, but I had never imagined them to be this uncomfortable!
"Just raise your arms for me please dear."
I did as she requested and felt the blue dress slip over my stay and petticoat. Once she was finally finished fixing my dress, I steadily and as elegantly as possible walked towards the mirror near the door. My hair had been curled and to my surprise, looked rather nice. The female helper had taught me how to look as though I were from the colonial age makeup wise. I will admit, the blue dress was pretty on me, especially since I was rather tall and it didn't look fake or cheap.
Glancing back at the helper, I asked," What now?"
"Now, you will eat breakfast with your classmates."
"Do you have any idea why that lady has us here? Why she's doing this to us? Why she has us in these random clothes?"
The lady looked straight into my eyes with a longing look.
"You will find out in due time dear child. Your purpose is greater than you had ever anticipated."
I watched her as she neared the door. She turned and motioned with her hand for me to follow her. I did so and walked alongside her down the lengthy hallway. Finally, a large room painted a forest green color with a dining table and several people around it appeared. I could see the bottom of my aqua blue dress begin to light up as I walk into the room. I was soon completely blinded by the sun shining through. Quietly, I walked to a seat aware of eyes staring at me. After sitting down, the eagle lady walked into the room and sat towards the end of the table.
"Let us begin, shall we?"
A long, quiet silence passed on.
"Well? Haven't you ever believed in greeting someone in the morning?"
In unison, we all said good morning to her.
" I have you all here today, in these outfits too, to train you. I wouldn't be surprised if you have all played this game." The eagle lady reached down beside her and brought back up a small case. She stared at it for a while then threw it towards the middle of the table where everyone could see it. Korben, who was across from me stared down at it smiling. I looked to my left and right at Anastasia and Katy, the two other girls in my class. Anastasia was wearing a yellow dress with small red designs. Katy was wearing a deep, dark red dress with a small plate looking hat. Both had familiar looking faces yet slightly confused. I finally took a peek at what was laying before me: Assassin's Creed 3. I looked over at the eagle lady as she examined everyone's expression until she met eyes with me. She smirked and stood up, walking around her chair and bracing herself lightly against it.
"Yes, it is Assassin's Creed 3. Many people believe it is just a game, however it isn't. It is the absolute truth. That is why you guys are here. We of the Assassin order believe something is missing from Connor's past. A woman to be exact. We tried to look into it as much as possible and have used many other people that could have had a connection with Connor and this these trials, we found that this person has British in their bloodline, as well as some sort of Hispanic ethnicity." She looked over at me; everyone's gaze followed. I looked down at the table nervously." However we can be wrong. It's just a risky bet. We all will be training you guys to use the animus and how to be an assassin. I will be training the females, and Sir Drake will be training the guys."
"Pardon my question, but what do we have to do with all of this?" I looked over at Brendon. Brendon had bright brown hair with beautiful green eyes. I will say... He is pretty cute however his attitude could easily turn someone off. As the ringleader of the class, everyone nodded at what he said.
"I will need all of you to at some point assist whomever I decide to send back to the 1700s. Mmm now I do believe I will take the girls with me. Ladies," she looked over at us," return to your rooms at once. You will find your training gear and outfit in your room."
(I know it's slow but stick with me. It's going to get exciting! :) )
