Assassin's Creed:

Alliance Chapter 5

Abelino Corbett sat at the end of the long oak table of the meeting room. He entertained himself by twiddling his gloved thumbs while he waited. Soon, the door to the meeting room opened and two Templar guards dragged a man who looked more insane than sane into the room.

"Who is this?" Corbett asked.

One of the guards dropped the man on the floor. "The only survivor from you party, monsieur." the guard replied.

Corbett stood up and walked over to where the man was lying. He sat back on his haunches and looked at him.

"What is your name?" Corbett asked coldly.

The man sniffled before replying. "Gulliver." he said.

Corbett took a deep breath. "Well, Gulliver, why did you survive while the rest of my men died?"

Gulliver sniffed. "He spared me."

Corbett looked up at the guard, who just shrugged. "Who spared you? Quemar?"

Gulliver shook his head, making mud fly from his matted hair. "The savage." he said.

Corbett laughed. "Savages don't spare people."

"This one does, and he's coming for you." Gulliver said.

Corbett ran a hand through his black hair. "Fair enough." he said.

Corbett withdrew a knife and stuck it in Gulliver's heart, the man's eyes widened in surprise and his face turned white as snow. Corbett twisted the knife all around, sending new spurts of blood splattering on his clothes and face.

When Gulliver had breathed his last breath, Corbett stood up. He pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from his face.

"Seigneur (Lord) Corbett, what do we do with him?" the Templar guard asked.

"Take him and dump him in Cour de Miracles." then he turned to the other guard. "Spread the word to our agents throughout France, forget about Dorian. Find the savage and bring me his head!"
