Due to my new-found interest in Assassin's Creed, I have decided to start taking prompts for the Frye Twins and their sibling relationship.
Some of these fics will have a corresponding gif set
I am always taking prompts and I hope you enjoy them :)
Prompt from Phoenix Brooke: I have a prompt, and I was wondering if you'd want to write it: Evie has a nightmare and Jacob helps her calm down. I understand if you're not interested, but I'm just curious :)
…
"EVIE!"
Evie glanced around frantically, "Jacob?"
"EVEI! HELP ME!"
The edge of a cliff seemed to suddenly appear in front of her, prompting her to glance over the side. Clinging to the rocks, barely holding on, was her younger twin brother.
"HELP ME!" he yelled, his feet skidding along the cliff face as he tried to pull himself up, "EVIE!"
"Hold on Jacob!" she screamed, reaching down to try and grab him, finding herself falling short.
As she continued to try and rescue her brother from the endless fall below, Evie heard a sinister laugh. Twisting her head around, she spotted a shadowed figure heading towards her, dark brown eyes staring at her.
Shaking her head, she leaned further over the edge to try and reach her brother. "Jacob…. Just a little bit farther!"
"Gotcha!"
Evie screamed when she felt a sharp blade stab through her wrist. At the other end of the blade, was the shadowed figure, a menacing grin on their face. "Trust me…." It hissed.
"Evie!"
Turning her attention back to Jacob, Evie was dismayed to see her twin slipping down the cliff face, his fingers desperately trying to hold on…. Until he fell.
"NO!" screamed Evie as her brother fell into the dark, bottomless pit below, his cries of fear echoing in her ears.
Fuelled with anger at the sinister chuckling behind her, Evie snarled at the figure. "Starrick!"
The figure continued to laugh, the sound growing more high-pitched as the shadows faded away…. to reveal herself.
"No…" Evie gasped, struggling to un-sheathe her own Assassin blade, "… No, please! What is this?!"
The figure didn't reply, only laughing as she wrenched the blade out of Evie's wrist and pushed her away, pushing her off the edge of the cliff.
Screaming as she fell, Evie thrashed mid-air when she heard someone calling her name.
"Evie…. Evie…. EVIE!"
Lashing out at whoever was shaking her shoulder, Evie awoke with a gasp and shot up into a seated position.
"Shit!" yelped someone from the floor, prompting her to glance over the side.
Lying on the floor, Jacob clutched at his cheek, rolling his jaw in order to test whether or not it was broken.
"Jacob…" Evie gasped, the nightmare still fresh in her memory, "… oh my god, Jacob are you alright?"
Jacob winced in pain, smiling up at his sister. "Well I hope you won against whoever you were fighting." He chuckled, his face quickly turning serious when he saw how pale his twin was, "You were screaming… I just wanted to try and wake you up, to try and help."
"I-I- " Evie buried her face in her hands, her shoulders starting to shake as the feelings of grief and fear caught up with her.
"Evie…. Oh god."
Gently, Jacob pulled her into a hug, softly ssshing her as she sobbed. After a couple of minutes, Evie pulled away, turning her head as she wiped away her tears.
"Do… do you want to talk about it?" Jacob asked, gently patting her on the back as she took deep breaths to try and calm down.
"Not… not really."
Jacob frowned, but decided not to push, instead choosing to silently comfort his sister.
It seemed like hours had passed, when in reality it was probably only a few minutes, before Evie finally managed to calm down enough.
"I'm okay you know."
Evie turned to Jacob in shock, staring at him as he shrugged sheepishly. "Sorry…. But you can't hide anything from me…. I'm not going to ask what happened, but I'm alright Evie… nothing's happened to me."
"H-how could you tell? How could you tell what I dreamed about?"
"… You didn't push me away." He smiled softly, "Whenever you usually have a nightmare, you push me away and go for a run… when something bad's happened to me in your dream, you stay put."
Evie flushed slightly, "I-I-I…. I didn't think you'd noticed that."
"You can't hide anything from me. Twins, remember?"
"Yeah… I never thought it would come back to haunt me."
Nudging Evie in the side, Jacob grinned. "And you said I have no observational skills!"
"You don't."
"Rude."
