The Scene Opens on To Henry on a roof of a saloon as Richmond, Virginia September 21 1860 sprawls across the screen and Henry Stamos, 21 years old below it he then runs across the roofs following the African-American Women as she runs across the rooftops Henry following behind her
" So the final test and we officially become part of the brotherhood, Excited ", The African American women said stopping waiting for him to catch up
" I suppose ", Henry said looking down at the civilians
" You suppose, what is that supposed to mean ", The Women said looking back at him
" It's not that I'm not looking forward to officially becoming a member, I'm more looking forward to no longer being a trainee, The only reason i joined in the first place was to find my brother and kill the men responsible for killing for my father and i'm not waiting any longer to do that ", Henry said catching up to her
" So you're just going to leave walk away from the brotherhood to go on a witch hunt for your brother who you don't even know if he is alive or not ", The Women said
" The Templars are many things but they wouldn't murder a child without a valid reason ", Henry said
" Didn't one shoot you ", The Women said running and jumping to another building
" Shoot not kill ", Henry said jumping behind her
" So you're just going to leave ", The Woman said shaking her head
" I don't need a lecture Katrina, I'm making my own path ", Henry running and jumping ahead of her
" If you say so, just don't end up dead ", Katrina said standing there for a second
" I'll be fine ", Henry said looking at her .
" Let's just stop talking about this let's just go get this bastard ", Katrina said jumping across starting to run ahead
" Sounds like a plan ", Henry said following her
Eventually Henry and Katrina reached The Paxton Slave Plantation, Slaves working everywhere Katrina looks pissed off trying to hold back all her anger
" My people shouldn't still be enslaved like this looked at as animals the only reason for their lives being hard labor ", Katrina said as she scowled
Henry put his hand on her shoulder
" We'll free them Katrina ", Henry said
" Yeah that's what Adam says, but I don't see any push towards it ", Katrina said clenching her fist
" If you want it to change go your own way don't wait for Adam to decide what is important ", Henry said
" I can't do that I'll never do it by myself, and you can't find your brother by yourself ", Katrina said looking back at him
" Katrina we are not taking this discussion any further ", Henry snapped as Katrina sighed and looked back and shaked her head
" You take out Lucas Paxton ill get the documents and try to get as much people out of here as I can ", Katrina Said
" You sure ", Henry said kneeling down next to her
" You're better at stealth than I am you can quickly go in kill him and avoid his guards if I get caught I don't have the risk of our Target getting away ", Katrina said scanning the area.
" Of course, task me with the hard job why don't you ", Henry said jokingly
" Well I am a poor defenseless women ", Katrina said overdramatically
" Says the girl who's broken multiple bones in my body " Henry said laughing
" Get down there before I break another bone ", Katrina said kneeling down again
" Yes Ma'am " Henry said getting up
Henry jumped off the building and into a pile of hay waiting for the bodyguards who check the slaves pass by as he quickly ran silently into the bushes looking around to see if anyone is there
He quickly ran towards the mansion on the plantation
Two guards started to walk up to the plantation right by him
Henry quickly ran and hid up against a tree he stayed there for a while but then ran up and climbed the tree running silently across the treetops
He finally gets to the top of the mansion he kicks out a windows entire frame and catches it to avoid the it crashing down and making noise
He entered silently into Paxton's master bedroom silently walking he hid behind the wall next to door opening it slightly and looked out to a hallway with multiple doors on the left and the right voices can be heard downstairs
" You dare turn your back on use Paxton ", Said a Gruff sounding man with a thick southern accent
Henry slowly creeped out the door crouching down slowly going towards the voices
" I never said i was out of the order ", Paxton said
" You disobeyed a direct order from the Grandmaster ", The Man said filled with rage
" I'm not doing something like that ", Paxton said trying to calm him down
" And now you are actually considering letting all these good for nothing negros go free, What the hell are you thinking Lucas ", The Man said
" I'm Not going to abstain from what i think is right just because you are stuck in your ways Randall ", Paxton said
" Your father built this place from the ground up and you are just going to tear it down, What has made you change your mind ", The Man named Randall yelled
" Daisy! ", Paxton yelled
A African American servant walked in the room and curtseyed
" Yes master ", Daisy said
" Show Mr. Delkin out of the property, We are done talking ", Paxton said walking off as Daisy nodded
" This way sir "
Delkin followed Daisy out the door grunting in disgust
Henry quickly jumped off the balcony and rolled down on the floor once he was alone
Paxton didn't seem to hear him sitting down in a chair putting on reading glasses and signing documents
Henry walking up to him slowly taking out his hidden blade, Paxton stopped writing and listened closely as Henry walked closer to him
Paxton slowly turned around
He turned around and all he can see was Henry hidden blade out, who quickly stabbed him in the neck
The World around Henry started to fall apart slowly into a light blue purgatory with computer code everywear as Paxton started holding his neck and attempted to get up but fell on to the ground when he attempted to walk away
" Your life is over Templar ", Henry said as he walked around the room looking down at him
Paxton coughed violently and sat himself up a bit
" So it is "
" Overheard your conversation with your friend there, why let your slaves go ", Henry said kneeling down next to him
" I spent all my life controlling people, realized i was wrong ", Paxton said coughing
" So now all of the sudden you decide to let them go that's it, You just woke up one day and decided to clear your conscience huh ", Henry said laughing shaking his head
" That Necklace of the people that came before us it showed me things, showed me how wrong i was and how i can change it and clear my conscience ", Paxton said
" Alright, you are clearly losing blood fast ", Henry said chuckling
" I wouldn't expect you too, you're too simple minded, The Documents in the safe of my servants quarters are documents saying that every one of the people that have served me are free, The Document on my desk says the mansion belongs to an elderly servant named Wallace, the man served my father and me for years he deserves an award ", Paxton said coughing
" Why give your mansion away, The man would certainly die before you if this didn't happen ", Henry said confused
" It also told me the future, told me what day my death would happen, how and who, You're Jonah Stamos's kid, Henry right ", Paxton said
Henry's face grew shocked
" Were you responsible for his death was Delkin ", Henry said getting up close in his face
" All the Templars took part in it ", Paxton said starting to shut his his eyes
" Who!, What are their names, What about My Brother, is he still alive, Answer me dammit! ", Henry said taking Paxton by his shirt collar and shaking him
Paxton was dead his eyes rolled in the back of his head, Henry threw his body down
" God Dammit "
Henry paced around his body taking his hood off his face red from rage he took two deep breaths and walked to Paxton's body and looked closely at a templar necklace he ripped it off and looked at it he then stuffed it in his coat pocket got up and walked off as the screen faded to black
The Scene comes back in and shows Katrina sitting on the roof reading the documents looking baffled as Henry walked up to her he took out the Templar necklace
" He's dead ", Henry said
" Did we make a mistake ", Katrina said looking back at him
" You read the documents ", Henry said sitting next to her
" All these people are free, he freed all these people ", Katrina said standing up
" He also gave his mansion to one of his slaves ", Henry said holding up to document
" Adam wanted us to burn all of these ", Katrina said looking shocked
" We don't have to "
" We aren't going to, we are going back in there and placing all these documents on his desk and leave them there for them to find ", Katrina said
" Katrina ", Henry said
" No ,stay back here i'll be right back ", Katrina said jumping off the building with the documents
Some time later Katrina climbed back on top of the building
" Let's get back to Adam ", Katrina said
" You ok ", Henry said putting his hand on her shoulder
" I'm fine Henry let's just go ", Katrina said as she started jumping back to the Assassin Hidout
Henry and Katrina made it to a giant mansion with a giant farm where there were Assassin Recruits training with Mentors everywhere as a middle aged female assassin stepped out of the mansion
" You're back i assume the mission went well ", The Women said
Henry took out the Templar necklace
" Lucas Paxton is no more "
The Women Hugged Katrina and Henry
" Good, you two did exactly what i thought you would do, i'm proud ", The Women said smiling
" Olivia we need to talk ", Katrina said
" Later, Now, now it's time to officially welcome you to our order", The Women said leading Henry and Katrina to the mansion
It shows a 50 something year old man in Assassin Robes standing on a stage other Assassins in the room
" The wisdom of our creed is revealed through these words. We work in the dark to serve the light. We are assassins. Nothing is true everything is permitted.", The Man's voice boomed through the room
" Nothing is true everything is permitted ", Every Assassin in the room including Katrina and Henry said as Olivia burned a mark on both of their ring fingers
" Even though for years we have felt like you two were part of the family it's official you are Assassin's ", The Man said
" Thank You Mentor ", Both Henry and Katrina said bowing
The Man stepped of the stage and walked towards Henry
" Congratulations you two ", The Man said
" Thank you Adam ", Katrina said
" And you burned the documents as I asked " , Adam said
" Yes sir ", Henry said looking at Katrina who just scowled
" Good well Henry now that you're officially-"
" I'm leaving ", Henry quickly interrupted
Adam's eyes widened the emotion on his face a mix of shock and rage
" What ", Adam said
" The Only reason I joined this order was to find my brother and get revenge on the people that killed my father and mother, I only stayed this long because I wanted to make sure i had to skills to do those exact things and now i am confident i do ", Henry said
" You can't just walk away from me ", Adam said
" Yes i can ", Henry said starting to get a little mad
" No you can't ", Adam said getting in his face
" Watch Me ", Henry said as he turned around and starting walking towards the exit
" Henry, wait ", Katrina said trying to stop him
" Katrina i'm going and nothing is going to stop me, I'm finding my brother ", Henry said as he quickly walked out the door
It shows all the Assassins looking at each other as Katrina sighed and the screen freezes and the world breaks down into a blue purgatory
