Two months it took, half a month for David to find a ship that would be going to Kingston, a quarter of a month for him to persuade the Captain to let him aboard and the remainder of the time to reach Kingston. David thanked the Captain and gave him the pouch of coins.
In the city of Kingston, David found the headquarters in Kingston rather quickly. He soon found himself talking to the bureau chief, Master Assassin Anto. David was delighted to know that Anto was an African from West Africa, just like himself.
"Greetings, Master Anto. I was a slave aboard the ship Experto Crede until it was liberated by the Assassin Adewale. I was interested in the way of the Assassin, thus he sent me here for you to teach me the way of the Assassin. Will you train me to be an Assassin?"
Anto considered for a while before telling David, "It would be harsh for me to just send you away, since you have no money and no home. Very well, I will take you in to train you."
One month later, David had become the apprentice of Anto. David was armed with a Brown Bess rifle he had gotten from a soldier he had killed, his Hidden Blade and a Dirk, which was a long dagger. He had just returned from killing a Templar who was the quartermaster of a Brig. David told Anto of his mission and he smiled, satisfied with David's work.
"Now, I want you to kill Laureano Antonio José, son of the late Templar Grand Master Laureano de Torres y Ayala. Antonio is a minor Templar, but since his father was the Templar Grand Master of the Caribbean Templars, Antonio may rise up to become a thorn to the Assassins. Antonio is currently in Kingston, but he hides in his ship for the fear that we Assassins might come and murder him."
That night, David spied on the ship from a nearby building. There were a few men on deck, armed with swords and knives of all kinds. Mercenaries, how low can Antonio stoop to for his safety? David thought. However, it made David's job easier. Mercenaries were mostly inexperienced.
Once he was done spying on the ship, David climbed down the building and made his way to the ship. Two fierce mercenaries stopped David. The first one told him, "State your name and business here. If not, get lost!"
David released his Hidden Blade and unsheathed his Dirk at the same time. He slashed a mercenary's throat with the Hidden Blade and thrust his Dirk into the other mercenary's chest. David watched both mercenaries collapse and kicked their bodies into the sea.
He jumped into the sea, climbing up the side of the ship. David was surprised no one had peered over the side. He climbed up onto the deck and took the five mercenaries on deck my surprise. David sliced the throat of the first mercenary, who was standing near the side, and threw his body into the waters.
The four mercenaries ran towards David, their weapons drawn. David ducked from a sword slash and rolled away from a vicious swipe. He got up and severed the head of the second mercenary with his Hidden Blade. David quickly sheathed his Dirk and took out his Brown Bess rifle. He shot the third mercenary in the forehead and whacked the last mercenary with the muzzle of the last mercenary. David thrust his Hidden Blade into the head of the unconscious fourth mercenary and killed him.
David made his way to the Captain's quarters of the ship. The door was locked, but then few Assassins had been stopped by a mere lock. Forcefully, David kicked the door open and aimed his Brown Bess at Antonio José. Antonio stood there, with fear on his face. He had raised his hands up. "Please, don't kill me. I have money, Assassin. Perhaps I can give you my money! Just, don't kill me!"
"I am sorry, Antonio. But a Templar you are, and a Templar you will always be if I do not kill you," David reloaded his rifle and fired a single shot at the throat of Antonio.
