A/n: Finally, the Easter holidays are here! bring on the chocolate! woot woot!

I let out a sigh, staring at the blank parchment in front of me, thinking of home, food, and most importantly, my x-box and bed. Ever since we had been kidnapped by that boss templar, Joesph, was it? Altair made damn sure to increase his security over us, and that meant we had to have a personal assassin with us at all times. Now I wouldn't have minded, but good god I couldn't even go to the loo without some assassin nearby, and to make it worse Altair was MY personal assassin. Kill me now. 'Hey Beth!, I have an idea, how about we make a zombie apocalypse team!' Courtney said, literally jumping in her chair. 'I'm the weapons expert!' I yelled smirking. 'And you can be the annoying douche who dies first'. Courtney scowled and replied with; 'Bitch please, do you know who I am?' She said, clicking her fingers. 'A gay best friend?' I countered. 'How dare you! I'll have you know, its not called being gay, its called being FABULOUS!'

A knock was heard at the door, and I screamed 'WELL SOMEBODY BETTER BE DYING!' and Altair peeped through the door with a classic example of a 'WHATDAFUQ?' face, Courtney laughed and I said 'What the hell do you wa-wait, are your robes pink?' I sniggered eyeing Altair's lovely robes. 'I must say, pink suits you nicely' Courtney laughed, making me laugh as well. 'This is a serious matter, that fool Ezio had mixed our red sashes and robes to result in this, I plan to humiliate him in the most unmannerly fashion, but I cannot seem to find the man' Altair said rather darkly, a shade of embarrassment touching his cheeks. 'This is where Daz comes in' Courtney giggled. 'No, Cilit bang does the job, BANG AND THE DIRT IS GONE, OR IN YOUR CASE THE PINKNESS' I argued. 'what is this 'Daz'?' Altair asked making Courtney facepalm. 'Nevermind' I sighed. 'Oh come on Alty, when can we g into the village or do something destructive!, I'm dying here!' I whined falling to my knees in a dramatic manner, Courtney joining me too. 'Are you both Idiots?! If you go outside of the castle there is more of a chance of those scum capturing you!' Altair said scolding us. 'Soz like, you don't have to go on a ten minute rant about it, jeez' Courtney said, getting off the ground. 'Do not behave so immature then I would have not scolded the both of you' Altair said, smirking slightly. I raised my eyebrows then said 'Hey Courtney darling, dont get so down, we can take a nice swim later because we can swim, cant we?' I deliberately emphasized the 'swim'. 'Oh yes, that sounds like a good idea, ya know, since we both can swim very well' Courtney agreed, watching me get back up.

'you two test my patience' Scoffed Altair as he turned around still in those pink robes, and stomped out. little did I know shit was about to go down.

A fee hours had passed and it was mid afternoon, Courtney said something about finding Ezio and Bro-fisting him and walked off to find him, so I stayed and make paper airplanes and throwing them down the balcony, hitting unsuspecting assassins. I had just finished folding another one when the door slammed open behind me causing me to jump and scream 'FOR THE LAST TIME I DON'T WANT SWIFTCOVER, GO COMPARE OR ANY OTHER GODDAMN INSURA-Oh, hello Malik, hows it hangin'?' I hid the paper plane behind me whistling suspiciously. 'Bethany, I need your help, Altair-he was sparring with Abbas and he purposely cornered him to the edge of the waterfall!' Malik said, out of breath. 'And I care because?' I sarcastically said. 'Abbas threw him in the river' Malik said. 'So?' I said, not getting him, but then I froze, and realization hit me like a fish slapping me across the face. I forgot. He cant swim. 'Oh' I said face palming, how could I have forgotten when a few hours ago I was joking about it? Idiot. 'Quickly, before he drowns!' Malik ran up to me and grabbed my arm and practically dragged me out of the room.

I scanned the area of the mock battle, there was a crowd of assassins surrounding an area and Abbas laughing, rather manically. 'Your not worthy of being our leader! ha! you cant even swim!' He laughed, pointing at the now panicking master assassin, who was trying his best to keep his head above the water. 'Why aren't the other assassins helping him? cant they swim too? and where's that italian twat?' I thought rushing through the worried crowd, squeezing through the killers. ''cuse me, coming through, NYPD, stands for knock your punk-ass down, move, Ill bite your big toe' I finally reached the crime scene and ran to the water now alarmed that there was bubbles where Altair should be. Hell no, I'm the one that's going to drown him in 6 inches of water, not a dude who's name sounds like a band form the 1970's.

I dove under blinking whilst my eyes got used to being underwater, looking for the jackass who was surprisingly stupid enough to fall in water, damn this dude and his pride. I saw a flash of light pink and reached for the bottom of Altair's robes, pulling it toward me, I could barely see the outline of Altair's face, but he had his eyes closed and mouth agape slightly, a bad sign. I wrapped my arms around his torso, and torpedoed up to the surface of the water, gasping for air when I came out of the waters depth. I swan to the riverbanks, and dragged Altair's unconscious body with me. I put his body safely out of the water and hugged the ground. 'I missed you too honey' I said, speaking to the earth.

I quickly sat up and checked Altair, he was still dead-looking, so I looked around for help, but the river made us go downstream far enough so that the castel and the assassins were a few miles away. 'Shit' I said, crawling to Altair. I put my hands to his chest and decided to do CPR, as this was an emergency, I pressed dow a couple of times, but he didn't respond. 'Goddamn it, I ain't doing mouth to mouth on you, you smug ass mofo' I said slapping his cheek but still no prevail, so I had no choice but to lower my head, tilt his chin, press my mouth against his slightly and breath in, all of this causing me to go red. I did it once and then I heard spluttering and coughing as the assassin came back to life. 'where is...Abbas?' Altair wheezed, letting me help him sit up. 'Further up the bank, you owe me, I just saved your wet ass' I smiled pushing my wet hair out of my face. 'The apple has corrupted him' Altair said, just about able to get up. 'no shit, he was laughing as insanely as me, and I'm pretty bloody insane' I said standing up too. eyeing Altair, making sure he didn't collapse again. 'Let's get back' I grinned, offering the master assassin a hand. 'Don't look at me like that, I'm just gonna make sure you don't do a 'OOOOOOH the floor looks nice, shall I say hello?' on me' I laughed. then Altair took my hand causing me a stop laughing. 'Is there something the matter?' Altair asked. 'Nahhh, I just got lost in thought, lets go!' I exclaimed before setting off for the castle.

When we arrived, Abbas was severely punished and was well banished from the creed, Courtney asked: 'Why are you soaking wet?' to which I replied with 'That's what she said', I went back into my room to change, and Malik was yet again still Malik. 'Oh look, our great master comes back, looking like a drown rat' Malik said, smirking at Altair's state. 'Oh, and where were you during this event Malik? Painting pictures of naked ladies?' I sneakily said. Mailk didn't reply.

I had just finished brushing my now dry hair when I heard a cry of an eagle with a breeze gently flowing past me, I spun around to see nothing. but then I nocied something on my desk. A letter? I ran to the desk and picked it up. It had a feather attached to it, which was quite pretty, I set it gently down on the wooden table and opened the scroll.

You have my thanks.

I placed the letter back down and smiled to myself.

A/N: there we go
