A/N: The last chapter I wasn't sure to post. Here you go !

Chapter 4: Feelings!

"Why Danielle, why?"

"They said it was a test, an initiation if you will."

"Who passed?"

"Umm... You did?"

"Really? What do I get an award or permanent scars of my back for the rest of my life?"

"Well, you get to go from novice to...um... I think a rank under Master Assassin. Once you have been properly trained that is."

"Say what! I am a novice not an expert fighter!"

"Well you fought off all the guards with only a dagger which is only what a master can do."

" I was fighting for my life! I won't be able to do that again,"

There was a pause for a moment and Rachel screamed

"DUCK!"

They both ducked and a throwing was thrown through the open door behind them. On both sides of the doorway stood there masters; Altair and Malik.

"Why are you two in here? Want to cause me more pain?"

Malik then spoke up,

"Peace Rachel, we wanted to test your loyalty to your fellow peers and the brotherhood. We can't trust all our novices," He looked at Altiar as he said this. Altiar signed and said

"I passed this test and you know it," Malik shook his head and then Rachel said

"Saying sorry will never get rid of my scar's, neither will is the point of upgrading me to near a master assassin when I am not worth it. I am not as strong or as fast as either of you masters. I -" Altair put his hand up and interupted her by saying

"You could not have heard that throwing knive if not. Also fighting 3 full patrol's of guards with a laid open back and tired is a great feat for a novice like you,"

Rachel threw a glare at him and said "What of Danielle? I refuse to do mission's without her. I only trust you two and her. I will do no missions without her unless it is a solo mission. You are not about to let us go out of missions after this torture are you? I will not go out solo until I have honed my skills. You know that takes time, more than I have," She was now glaring at both of them who had closed the door and entered the room and were stood 10 paces away, weary of Rachel's vemonous bite.

"Peace, we had no intention of sending you out on missions yet and even then not on are not fool's Rachel. Altair and I are wiser than both of you, but together you could be a very crafty fox. Now both of you rest in your bed's. We will leave you in peace for the next couple of day's unless you come to find us. Farewell."

Malik bowed and exited. Altair lingered however and approached Rachel and said

"When I was younger when I was hunting the Templars for Al Muliam, I would have killed you for showing such insolence. You may not forgive us, not yet. Time will heal the wounds of the mind not the body." With that he stalked out of the room and left them alone. Rachel was red with anger and embrassment was due to Altiar being super close to her but her anger remained. She turned around walked to her bed and stripped herself of her gear and armour and robes. She underneath was wearing a simple tunic and some put her covers over her and fell asleep more-a-less instantously. Danielle did the same but she couldn't fall asleep due to what the man who had talked to her said to her. She shivered at the thought of his words and eventually she fell asleep.

Rachel woke up early and stretched her arms and yawned. Danielle was already awake and was sat in silence.

"Good Morning Rachel,"

"Morning Danielle. How long have you been up?"

"About an hour. I've been busy thinking."

"Thinking about what?"

Sarcasically Danielle said " You know what,"

As a reply, Rachel grumbled "It is certainly something to think about,"

" It is, but I was thinking about something else,"

"Georgina? Or something along those lines?"

"Yeh. Man,you know me well. Saying that, I know you quite well and I can say you are still pissed about last night aren't you?"

Rachel nodded and replied "Who wouldn't be still pissed, even after a good night sleep. My back feel's like it is on fire. Maybe we shouldn't have come, if that's how they treated their recruits,"

"It's a nessicerty to join the brotherhood. Both Altiar and Malik went through it as well. Well, I have a bad headache."

"Hmph."

"Come on you wanted to be here in the first place. I wouldn't have known what to do if I had appeared in Acre by myself. I probably would have gotten killed by the templars-"

"We nearly did get killed by the templars,"

"Yeh, that was hilarious. Wait- We did?"

"They were galloping behind us for about a mile when we left the city."

"Why?"

Rachel shrugged in response and flinched as it hurt her back. They both were silent after and neither made a move to get out of there beds or talk further.

A/N: Now that this part is finished it is time to get into the kinda-ish-main plot of the story. Spoilers :P
