The Scene opens to Washington DC people all around walking around the city it pans all around until we see Henry on top of a building looking down at the people he seems extremely frustrated and tired as a voice over begins after November 2nd 1860 appears on screen
" After leaving the guidance of Adam and the rest of the Assassin Brotherhood i began to hunt down the man Randall Delkin and after 10 long days I've finally heard a rumour going around he was in Washington DC for reasons unknown to me at the moment but I mean to find out and hopefully find more of his Templar Brothers"
Henry got up and jumped off the building rolling on the the floor and took of his hood to look relatively normal he then stopped to look around at the town, It was huge, shops and banks everywhere and over the hill he could see the capital he smiled astonished by the huge city
" Wow ", Henry said smiling
Then a man shoved him he looked at his watch he looked back at Henry like he was going to say sorry but he just kept going
" Jerk ", Henry said straightening his cloak
Henry started walking looking around still taking in all of the people men in gray uniforms were standing on the sidewalk people he could only assume we're the lawmen of the city he then saw two men talking he looks at them closely and relizes one of them is Delkin
" Oh shoot ", Henry said walking quickly in between two men
" Hey we were talking ", One Man exclaimed
" Shut up will ya ", Henry whispered watching Delkin closely
" The Southern states are already threatening to leave ", Delkin said
" And we got Davis on that if anything happens ", Said the man next to him a bald man in his 60s and suit
" But if Lincoln gets elected we lose control of the northern states and The Sooner the Southern states leave ", Delkin said
" So ", Said the old man but Delkin interrupts him
" So!, A war is inevitable and millions lives will be lost and If he wins he'll release all the slaves In the entire god Damn country and you know we can't let that happen ", Deklin said getting in his face
The Old man put his hands on his shoulders speaking softly
" Randall, we control the election every single time and if there is even possibility he gets elected we will make him see our cause "
" You're sure that this will happen ", Delkin said extremely frustrated
" It's three of our puppets against one man ", Said the man
" But do you have any idea how many supporters this cocksuker has and he doesn't seem like the man who would pledge himself to our cause " Delkin said getting in the old man's face
Both men walked past Henry as he moved from the two men and started following them
" I do but do you know how many supporters Breckinridge, Douglas and Bell have we won't lose our position of power ", The Old Man said staying calm
" You say that but you can't see the future if there's even a chance that this man wins the election we have to do something about it ", Delkin said stopping in his tracks
" Then kill the poor man then Randall if you really feel that is necessary ", The Old Man said putting his hands behind his back
Delkin nods his head putting his hand to his chin
" If Lincoln is dead we for sure remain in power ", Delkin said pacing around the old man
" Randall ", The Old man said shaking his head
" Shut up I'm thinking ", Delkin shouted
" I'll go to Springfield kill him in his sleep actually i- " Delkin then stopped and looked right at Henry
" We're being followed "
" What ", The Old Man said spinning around
" It's an Assassin, we have to go ", Delkin said pulling the shirt if the Old man starting to run
" Well shit ", Henry said starting to push people out of the way running towards the two men
" Move "
Henry starting sprinting towards the two men them getting on a carriage that was waiting for them it quickly went off getting out of Henry's sight
" Shit,Shit,Shit,SHIT! ", Henry shouted kicking the ground he then looked to his right at two kids who were just staring at his.
" What are you looking at, Go home "
The two kids ran off as Henry sweat running down his face shaked his head and ran towards the train station
He got to the train station and went up to the man handing out the tickets
" Uh..Do you have any tickets to Springfield left ", Henry said his mind going a million miles a minute
" Hm..let me see ", The Man said checking a book
" Yes Actually and you're just in time too we only have one ticket left ", The man said handing him a ticket
Henry took the ticket and gave him some coins
" Keep the change ", He said as he started running to the train he was supposed to go on he quickly jumped on the train and it started heading to Illinois as the scene fades to black
The Scene then opens to a train entering the city of Springfield, Illinois as November 3rd 1860 appears on screen the train comes to a stop as Henry quickly gets off he looks around the city Two Women stared at him he smiled at them they scoffed and quickly walked away, Henry started asking people if they knew where Lincoln lived he saw a newsboy handing out newspapers
" Extra Ex- " The Little Boy shouted before being interrupted by Henry
" Hey Kid do you know where Abraham Lincoln lives ", Henry said panting
" Why ", The Little boy said
" He's a friend and I need to find him ", Henry said kneeling down to his level
" That's cool ", The Little Boy Said smiling big
" And he's in trouble so you kinda need to tell me now so I can help him ", Henry said
" I think I do I'll lead you to him ", The Kid said Smiling
" Kid that isn't necessary ", Henry said shaking his head
" No, No if is in trouble I want to help " The Kid said extending out his hand
" Peter Bradly, Nice to meet you, What's your name "
Henry shaked his head sighed and
" Henry Stamos ", Henry said shaking his hand
" Follow me ", Peter said starting to head towards the city
Henry got up and reluctantly followed him worried on how he would but then realized he murders people all the time so he really didn't care he started following the kid
" How old are you Peter ", Henry said
" 9 years old, How old are you ", Peter said looking back at him
" Uh..20 ", Henry said
" What do you do "
" What *
" For like a job I mean "
" I don't really have a job I just uh..travel around ", Henry said.
" Huh, when i'm not being a newsboy i usually work on my Pa's farm ", Peter said looking back at him and smiling
" That's cool you father's putting you to work making you a man ", Henry said smiling
" I guess, i don't know it's really hard i wish i can just go ", Peter said
" Cherish all the time you have with your family, they might not always be there ", Henry said saddened
" What's wrong :, Peter said looking at him
Henry chuckled
" Nothing you need to worry about kid "
Peter stopped near a white two story house in a regular neighborhood Henry looked Puzzled
" Are you sure this is where he lives "
Peter nodded
" Yes sir "
" Doesn't really look like a house for a Presidential Candidate ", Henry said stroking his chin
Peter shrugged
" From what i know this is it, I should really be getting back to where i'm supposed to be "
Peter started heading off but Henry interrupted him
" Hey Kid "
Peter turned back as Henry tossed a bag over to him Peter opened it and it was filled with American coins and dollars
" Um...Thank you Mr. Stamos this will help my family a lot "
" You seem like a good kid, so don't mention it ", Henry said smiling and waving as Peter ran off
" Now let's see if this guy is home "
Henry marched up to the front door and knocked on it several times before looking into the window
" Aw Jesus fucking christ no one's home, God damnit "
Just then there came a voice from behind him
" You seem lost my friend "
Henry turned around and saw a tall, gangly, skinny man in a suit and a tall hat with a women and two little boys
" You looking for someone "
Henry stood there mouth agape looked back at the house and at him
" Um…...You ", Henry said scratching the back of his head
The Tall man stepped up to Henry, smiling taking off his tall hat
" In the flesh, are you friend or foe because if you are foe i might just have to kill you "
Henry looked at him slightly put off as Lincoln then chuckled and put a hand on his shoulder
" I'm just playing boy, Now what i would really like to know what it is you are doing here "
He looked down at Henry's ring finger and his necklace
" Do the Assassins require anything of me "
Henry stood there dumbfounded wondering how the heck this man knew of The Assassin order Lincoln saw the expression and reacted
" Hmm, You must be new they didn't tell you about me, Well that is very tragic i guess Jonah's memory isn't well these Days but it has been some 20 odd years since i have seen him "
" Jonah as in Jonah Stamos ", Henry said
" Yes as in The Leader of your order ", Lincoln said
" Jonah Stamos is dead, Mr. Lincoln has been for over 10 years ", Henry said getting choked up
Lincoln's smile faded as a melancholic expression slowly formed across his face
" I'm his son, Henry "
Lincoln slowly nodded his head holding his hat in his hands
" Yes he mentioned you in a letter after you were born you were the best thing that ever happened to him he said "
He quickly wiped away a single tear
" I'm sorry for your loss Mr. Stamos, He was also a dear, dear friend of mine and frankly i don't know why it took over ten years for his adult son to tell me himself that he was dead but no use dreading over it that doesn't get anything done so Henry what do i owe the honor "
" Mr. Lincoln a Man Randall Delkin is planning to kill you ", Henry said
" Kill me ", Lincoln said
" Yes and i came here to stop him and- ", Henry said
" Henry i may not look all that strong but i can handle myself ", Lincoln said
" Abraham who is that ", The Women said holding her two children close
Lincoln looked at his wife and stepped down to her gesturing for Henry to come over
" Henry this is Mary Todd my wonderful and beautiful wife and Mary Todd this is Henry the son of a very good friend of mine, Jonah Stamos i've told you about Jonah haven't I "
Mary Todd nodded
" Abe what's going on is something wrong "
" No,No, No everything will be fine ", Lincoln said gently putting his hands on her shoulders
" And these are my two sons Tad and William, Tad, William this is my new friend Henry Stamos ", Lincoln said
" Hello Mr. Stamos ", One of the boys said
" Uh….Hi ", Henry said confused
Lincoln goes towards Henry and put his hands on his shoulders
" I know we just met Henry but i can tell you and me are going to great friends Henry "
Lincoln smiled and goes towards the front door
" Come inside Henry, We have much to talk about "
Lincoln went inside as Mary Todd and the kids followed their mother inside but the younger boy stopped
" Why do you wear that "
Henry smiled
" It's Comfortable "
Henry went inside Lincoln's house to talk to him
