"I'm Ezio Auditore... And you are bleeding." Ezio spoke with a trait of concern in his voice, he had noticed the woman's accent was French but she was able to speak Italian fluently. With the clothing she was wearing it was obvious she was an assassin, French maybe.
"I know...Idiot... I am not blind to the blood staining my clothing.." She spoke with a harsh tone as she looked up at him, She had pale blue eyes that was close to sliver. Her mouth had set into a flat line as her face was emotionless, although she had her looks she was not as beautiful as some of the other women Ezio had seen. "Do not even compare me to other women.." she spoke as she turned on her heels.
"Wait... You need to see a Doctor" Ezio spoke as he grabbed the woman's left shoulder, little did he expect her to turn and grasp his wrist with her right hand and twist it sharply towards her. Ezio stumbled towards her as she dipped under his left arm then she bent it backwards pulling it to behind his back.
"Thank you.." she spoke as she pushed him away with a kick to the backside. She turned once more and mounted her stallion. She then spurred the horse into a gallop. Once Ezio had managed to get his footing he looked back up to see she was already ahead of him. He let out a frustrated sigh, as he whistled for his horse.
The mare trotted up to Ezio, with a slight stroke of her neck Ezio mounted her and set off for Tiber Island. Hopefully La Volpe or Machiavelli could shed light upon this female assassin. She seemed to be rather harsh and able to hold her own in a fight, Ezio carried on at the slow trot the mare paced at until he heard his name.
"Ezio...Pst.. Ezio...Pst" The voice called to him but it was obviously trying to keep quiet. Ezio pulled the reins on the mare and looked around, there seemed to be no borgia guards around here. He dismounted and lead his horse to water when the voice called to him again, much louder this time in volume. "Pst... Ezio over here.." Ezio looked in the direction of the voice and tilted his head slightly, he cautiously walked towards the voice. When he turned the corner he was glad to see it was Leonardo.
"Leonardo..How good it is to see you my old friend." He extended his arms out and stepped forward to hug his closest friend, Leonardo gladly accepted the friendly hug then spoke up.
"Ezio.. I have some more information about the sword..." Leonardo spoke softly, he seemed to be overly cautious and constantly overlooking his own shoulder. He shakily passed over a book to Ezio "I am sorry my friend I cannot stay and chat.. Cesare is visiting me for the plans of the war machine.. If he finds this information about the sword we are all in trouble.." Leonardo turned and waved to his friend. "I must go. Bye Ezio." With that Leonardo had already mounted his horse and left.
Ezio briefly looked over Leonardo's notes, thankfully Leonardo had written them in Italian instead of his normal gibberish. After looking through brief sketches and references to the sword in accounts from France around 1430, it seemed this sword of Eden was more than just a tall tale. Sadly.
Evelyn Arrived at Tiber island, she had heard there was a Doctor around so with the Florins she had lifted from Ezio she got her reopened wound checked out, after a brief set of instructions that she did not listen to she exchanged the money and she was back on the street feeling a little light-headed from the smelling salts. She shook her head and sat on a bench she looked around when she saw an assassin do a leap of faith from the top of a building.
'That is the brotherhood's home in Italy then..' she thought as she stood up, she debated on climbing but the stitched wound on her chest suggested that was not the best idea. she walked around the building you? until she saw the entrance at street level, she cautiously walked up making sure no one had followed her with that she took a hold of the door knob and twisted it to the right. The door clicked open and she pulled the heavy door open and walked inside allowing the door to close by its own. she walked up the steps up to the main room.
"Ezio is that you?" La Volpe spoke as he looked to the doorway, when he saw it was not him but a female assassin instead he drew his dagger. Machiavelli looked towards the female with distrust he did not recognise her straight away.
"Who are you?" Machiavelli questioned and looked towards La Volpe and nodded. La Volpe looked back and relaxed a little but his knife was still drawn. The female assassin smirked a bit before pulling down her hood, she was paler than Machiavelli remembered but her hair had grown longer and a few stray strands had fallen on her face. "Impossible..." Machiavelli spoke rather dumbfounded as he gazed upon the female assassin, his eyes where naturally drawn to the large blood stain and tear in her assassin attire.
"Is this how to greet an old friend?" Evelyn spoke softly with a smile. She stepped further into the room, La Volpe did not sheath his weapon instead he seemed more weary of her with each step she took. She stopped and looked towards La Volpe. "We haven't met before have we?" she questioned him then looked at Machiavelli. "Well.. Introduce us then." she suggested to him just as Ezio walked in, Ezio walked in with his focus in the book when he closed it to look up he found La Volpe to be holding a knife and the female assassin that he met earlier to be stood there.
"Introduce who?" Ezio questioned as he looked at female before turning back to Machiavelli. Machiavelli shook his head slightly then nodded.
"Ezio, La Volpe. This is Evelyn Iris Green, She is Mentor of the French Brotherhood." Machiavelli spoke.
