Altair walked into Al Mualim's office. It was no different than the last time he went in. The office was smaller than his. Altair looked around. In the office there was a bookshelf full of old books he knew Al Mualim liked to read. Altair sat down quietly. "So Maria told me you needed to see me?" Altair said.

"Yes there is something I like to talk about." Al Mualim said.

"And what would that be?" Altair asked.

"Well if you didn't know..recently your cousin Arno's adopted father had died."

For a moment it was quiet. Altair's cousin Arno he hasn't spoken in a while since he left L.A to live in France was only 8 when his real father died. Altair thought about the whole thing. He wondered what and why Al Mualim was telling him this. "Listen Altair I want you to take a trip up to France for awhile. After all you haven't seen your cousin Arno for a while have you? Either way I think you should take him in. He's still 16 and needs a place to stay unless he chooses to stay with his French Relatives." Altair nodded at what Al Mualim said. He thought about taking Arno in before when his real Father died until Arno's father's close friend took him in instead.

"I guess I can do that, but what about my brothers? Ezio and Desmond. Would they come along as well? I don't think I should leave them alone."

"There's no need to bring them along, and why don't you want to leave them alone you done it before when you filmed movies this past year."

Altair nodded once again. "Yes I know that, but..."

"It shouldn't be a problem then."

Altair just stared at Al Mualim. Besides that Altair wondered how awkward it would be just going to France and seeing his cousin in how long again? He knew he probably should go up to France and check on Arno. If he also remembered correctly he knew Arno had a adopted sister named Elise. "I guess I'll go up to France. He's in Paris corrected?" Altair asked.

"Indeed he is in Paris." Al Mualim said opening up a folder that said Trip to Paris. Al Mualim handed Altair a paper with Arno's address and a ticket to France. Altair took a look at it. He then got up and went over to the door to exit the office.
