Chapter Three

"Sarah... Sarah..." I felt something poke my face. I buried myself deeper into the warm blanket.

"Sarah get up! We have a little problem." Parker insisted.

"Look if you girlfriend wants to dump you, it really isn't my problem." I muttered and tried to fall asleep again. Suddenly, Parker threw the pile of blankets off of me. I yelped as he pulled me by my legs and dragged me out of my room.

"Dude, what the heck is wrong with you?!" I screeched as I clawed at the carpet. Parker continued to drag me to the living room where the assassins and artist were sitting on the couch watching tv. They all stared at us as I kicked at Parker. I was definitely not a morning person. Parker picked me up by my arm pits and dumped me on the couch. I glanced at the clock on the table next to the couch. My sleepy eyes widened at the time.

"You woke me up at freaking 7:30 during summer vacation?!" I hurled a pillow at Parker as he dodged it with ease.

"Good morning to you too." Connor said. I yawned and went to kitchen. I grabbed an apple and bit it.

"So what's the problem?" I said walking back to the living room. All the assassins exchanged looks. Malik was the first to speak.

"The Pieces of Eden. They're gone." He said. I almost choked on my apple.

"What?!" I managed after much coughing.

"They're gone! Before we went to sleep we put them on the table and when we woke up, they weren't there!" Leonardo exclaimed looking on the verge of tears.

"I thought that since we came here because of them, we could go home using the Pieces but now..." Maria said quietly. I was still gagging on my Apple as they spoke nervously.

"What do we do?" Connor asked. I thought for a moment and stared at my feet.

"I dunno..." I muttered. "Wait and see what happens?"

"Genius..." Ezio said sarcastically.

"Hey don't judge me. I don't even know how or why you people are here! You guys are from a video game for god's sake!" I said a little too loudly. My day wasn't off to a good start.

"A what?" I looked at my brother with a shocked expression as I realized what I had just said. Parker stared back at me with the same face. Suddenly I blurted out, "You guys are from a game... As in you guys aren't supposed to be real."

"But we are. And what is a video game?" Altair asked. I looked at Parker again.

"Basically, a video game is this... game that you can play on the tv. Its kind of like movie, but you play as the main character." Altair scoffed at our explanation and rolled his eyes.

"Its true, we swear!" They all just looked at us as if we were lying. I grabbed our copy of Borderlands 2 and popped it into our Xbox. The screen flickered to life with our character standing with Claptrap screaming something about dub step songs. The assassins eyes widened in wonder. They all sat up like excited school children.

"So you just play a game? And we are in it?" Connor asked. I nodded and changed the Borderlands disk with the Assassin's Creed 3 disk. The screen changed to a white background with a blue assassin's symbol floating in the middle.

"Wait a minute..." Malik started. "This means that millions of people know the brotherhood's secrets..." The realization dawned on all their faces. Oh shit...

"No, no it's not like that, its like... crap." It was exactly like that, I thought.

"Ok think of it this way: you guys are in a story about your lives, so...yeah. And it's not like any of us are Templars." Parker explained.

"Yeah I don't think Templars even exist now." I added. That seemed to calm them down.

"I suppose that is a good thing." Aveline said after awhile. I grabbed a controller and tossed it at them, which Maria caught.

"So you guys want us to teach you how to play?" I asked while flopping down next to Connor.

"Um.. ok." I showed them the basic of the game, how to attack,walk and run. They seemed to amazed by the graphics it was almost hilarious. And every time they got killed half of the the group groaned while half held their breathes, as if they were really going to de. Soon, they got addicted to it. An hour passed before they stopped playing. I went on my computer and started Skyping with my best friend Jennifer, who had already ben developing a crush on Ezio.

"So... Sarah... Who's the hot guy behind you?" She ogled at Connor sitting me behind me. Should I tell her who he really was? I figured why not, I could explain to her later.

"Well, he's hot. Is he single?" She asked.

"Yeah I think so." Behind me Connor stood up to go to the kitchen.

"Hey Connor!" Jennifer called. He looked back at the computer screen with a little confusion.

"Is your dad a baker? Cuz you got a nice set of buns." Jennifer flirted while winking at me. I laid my head on the table and started giggling uncontrollably. Jennifer is such an idiot sometimes.

"No acutually my father was a-" Connor looked at me laughing my ass off, then at Jennifer giving him the 'if-you-know-what-i-mean' look, then back at me.

"Wait a minute..." He said.

"Buns... Wait a minute!" His cheeks reddened and he walked hasteingly to the kitchen. I started laughing so hard I fell out of my chair. Jennifer on the other hand started saying a bunch of sexual things. By the time I calmed down Jennifer had to go. I went back to the couch. They were still playing videogames. Connor came back and sat next to Aveline.

"Your friend is strange." He said.

"What happened?" Parker asked.

"She said I had nice buns." Connor said, his face reddening as the other assassins started laughing.

"I don't get it." Altair said. I just lost it there. Parker broke out in laughter too. My stomach started hurting after my laugh attack. In the tame we got to the cutscene where Connor kills Charles Lee.

"This is my favorite part." Connor said with a smirk.

"Obviously." Parker retorted. They were still amazed by the graphics of the game. We spent the entire day playing video games. It was almost 10 o' clock by the time they stopped. They played every single video game we had. Every. Single. Game. I had to wrestle the controller out of Malik and Ezio's hands to get them to stop.

"Hey!" Ezio protested.

"The controller is gonna die, we have to charge it." I placed them on the charger and changed the input back to the regular t.v shows. When the t.v changed the Walking Dead was on. Zombies limped around the grassy fields as the main characters took them out.

"Are those things real?" Leonardo asked with a quavering voice. He pointed at the walkers attacking people.

"No... they're people in costumes, I think." I answered. I laid down on the couch and continued to watch t.v. Sudden Aveline poked me. I sat up and faced her.

"What?"

"This may seem strange but... do you have a rag I can borrow?" She asked timidly.

"For what?" She looked down awkward.

"Oh. OH! We have something for that in the 21st century." I grabbed her hand and took her to my bathroom. I grabbed a pad and handed it to her.

"How is this little thing going to help?"

"Just stick it in there and it'll help. But you have to change it every so often." She nodded and I left the bathroom. That was the most awkward situation I have ever been in. I went back to the living room to see Malik and Altair yelling in Arabic at the t.v. Parker was playing Call of Duty online, and he seemed pretty pissed. Maria was pretty much not caring about all of this, while Connor and Ezio were staring at the screen excitedly. I heard someone scream on the microphone "FAAAG!" and Parker throw the controller across the room in frustration.

"Dude you suck at this." I laughed.

"It's not my fault I'm terrible at it!" He protested.

"Yeah well I'm sleepy so bye." I went to my room and sat on my bed. I pulled my fluffy covers over me and drifted off into a blissful video game like dream.

So yeah, basically the whole story is just gonna be them doing a bunch of random shit. Please review, favorite and follow. :)
