As well as my Evie & Jacob one shots, I am also writing a modern Assassin's creed series

Previously in this series: After being framed for a crime, Jacob left the Order and the Assassin village. Five year later, the Young Assassin team meet Vex and enter into an agreement with him and his club.

After a bombing at the club, it is revealed that Shay Patrick Cormac has escaped the high security prison he was in…. and is now in the wind. Jacob however, is still in the wind after leaving his friends a letter

Please enjoy, and read and review J

There was a shocked silence as a familiar figure strode over to stand in front of the girls, acting as their protector.

"A street party…" Jacob smirked, "… and nobody invited me!"

Evie felt like her heart was sinking into her stomach at the familiar voice… and cheekiness that went with it. "Jacob…" she whispered, just as she heard Ezio call out his friend's name

"JACOB!"

"… oh my god…" she continued, leaning over the edge of the rooftop as though trying to get closer, "… Jacob!"

The rest of the assassins were also shocked by their friends' sudden appearance, with many breaking formations in order to get a better view.

Jared Alex, however, didn't recognise him and sneered. "Step aside at once!" he ordered, "You are causing unrest amongst the people, and I will not have a riot at my rally!"

"And yet you're willing to let your minions throw rocks at them? How very ancient history of you..."

"STEP DOWN!"

"I know I've been away for a few years, but I know that your views are out-dated! You can't treat people like this, and you can't let your minions treat people like this!"

"SILENCE!"

"FREEDOM!"

It was a little dramatic, but it had the desired effect… the crowd fell silent and Jared Alex was left gaping like a fool.

The two girls took advantage of the stunned silence, and escaped into the alleyway.

"Mark my words…" Jared Alex hissed, the words echoing throughout the entire courtyard due to the microphone, "… you will pay for this insolence!"

Jacob was clearly not fussed.

"Oh of course Your Highness!" He exclaimed in a mocking tone, bowing low and smirking, "How ever could I say bad things about the King of Fools and his pet clowns?!"

The crowd (aside from Jared's supporters) erupted into laughter at this, although it was very nervous sounding.

Jared Alex was not impressed at all, turning to Freddie. "Arrest him!"

Freddie, however, was still in shock…. Jacob was here… Jacob was actually here.

Whilst he was still some distance away, Freddie could still spot some key details about his… Jacob.

The ex-assassin was skinner than he had been, with the large coat practically hanging off him. It was clear that the years away from the Creed hadn't done Jacob any favours.

He still looked beautiful though.

"Sergeant Abberline!"

Freddie jumped slightly and turned to face the politician, who was glaring at him.

"Arrest. Him!"

Freddie sighed, bringing his hand up to his communicator. "Arrest Jacob Frye…" he ordered the lower officers, "… do not harm him."

/Ummmm Sir? Are you seriously suggesting we try and take down an ex-assassin? \\

Harry was his second-in-command and clearly remembered how good of an assassin Jacob was… and probably still was.

Despite their worries, the police slowly started to surround Jacob, who was smirking at them, almost daring them to come closer.

"So, let's see…" he began, "… one, two, three, four, five, six… so there's six of you, and one of me." He gasped in mock shock, "What am I ever going to do?!"

Pulling a hanky out of his pocket, Jacob sniffed and wiped away imaginary tears, before sneezing and disappearing with a cloud of black smoke.

Jared took several steps back in shock. "Assassin!" he hissed, spinning around as though trying to spot where Jacob might be.

A sharp whistle suddenly attracted everyone's attention, and everyone turned to the nearby car-park, where Jacob Frye was standing on top of a Land-rover…. Judging by the personalised number-plate, it was Jared Alex's personal vehicle.

"Over here officers!" Jacob taunted, "Come and get me if you can!"

The officers tried… oh god did they try, but Jacob led them on a merry goose chase all around the courtyard, using the excited crowd to his advantage as he ducked and weaved in between people, clambering up until he was balanced at the top of the local church spire… before falling backwards and vanishing with another cloud of smoke.

The crowd were clearly excited, all chattering to one another as they slowly began to disperse.

Jared Alex was not happy with that.

Evie, Ezio and the other young assassins weren't worried about that. They had all gathered around the church, looking for any sign of Jacob.

Nothing.

"I didn't imagine that did i?" asked a voice from behind them, soon revealing itself to belong to Freddie, who looked as though he was going to pass out from shock, "That was Jacob wasn't it?"

"Undeniably so…." Sighed Evie, "… but he didn't even acknowledge us… why?"

"Maybe he didn't know we were there?"

Ezio shook his head, "A big political rally like that? No… he knew we were there, he just chose to ignore us." He turned to his friends, "We need to find him."

"I agree Mister Assassin!"

Everyone turned around to see Jared Alex storming towards them, his face red with rage. "That boy made a fool out of me, and the police proved themselves to be as useless as humanly possible. You… Assassins are the best hope of finding him."

Freddie was slightly offended at his officers being referred to as useless, but chose not to say anything as Jared Alex continued to rant.

"I want him found alive and arrested. And then, I want to be there for his trial! He almost started a riot at my rally and I want him to be punished for this!"

The Assassins remained silent, both to let Freddie speak… and because none of them thought they would be able to stop themselves from saying something… insulting.

"Of course Sir…" Freddie straightened up, "…. The police and the Assassins will team up and catch the man."

"You'd better! This is a small town, and it would be a shame for it to lose its funding because eof one arrogant brat!"

The Assassins didn't even flinch at that, watching as the politician stormed away before all turning to Freddie.

"Is he aware that the town is funded mostly by contributions from the Upper Assassin families?" Conner asked, his dark eyes stony and cold.

"No…" Freddie sighed, "… but I couldn't care less about him. What are we going to do about Jacob?"

There was a brief silence, before Arno stepped forwards. "We should split up, he can't have gotten far, but there are a number of places he can hide. We'll have a better chance of finding him then."

The rest of the team nodded, their thoughts already thinking about what they'd even say if one of them did manage to corner Jacob.

I'm sorry?

Please come back?

We've missed you?

It all seemed so insignificant.

Before they split up, Evie pulled tapped her communicator with a deep sigh. "Father needs to know about this…" she whispered, "… the Council may need to get involved."

"What the fuck do you think you're doing?!"

"I think I was being awesome! It certainly caught Jared's attention."

"You are mean to be keeping a low cover"

"…. I wasn't just going to stand by and let those bastards hurt those girls… I guess I still have a little bit of hero in me."

The was a groan of sheer frustration, before "OW!" could be heard all around the alleyway.

"What was that for?!"

"You know what that was for!"

The sound of police sirens filled the air, causing the pair to panic.

"…. You need to kiss me!"

"What?!"

"Kiss me! As a distraction, you know! Nobody wants to watch PD-AAH!"

As the police rushed by, they paused briefly to watch as one figure punched the other in the face, before storming out of the alleyway, heading straight towards them.

"Sorry about that boys… he got a little handsy. Don't worry. I took care of it."
