Hi everyone! Here's another chapter! Enjoy! Also, I may not be able to update this coming weekend. Sorry!
Shout Outs/Replies:
Emo Chick 66 – Maybe Ezio is a bad guy, maybe he isn't. It will be revealed soon! Also, here is the new chapter! I'm happy that you liked the jealous scene, and don't worry, this is a Bra-Kayla story, not an Ezio/Mikayla one. As for the fight scene, I agree that TheMysteriousWatcher is very good at writing them.
Katie787 – I'm happy you liked it!
KatieMusicLuvr177 – Ezio may be a good guy, he may be a bad guy! The truth will be revealed soon! As for him being based off of the Ezio in Assassin's Creed, he is loosely based off of the one in Assassin's Creed. Here's your update!
TheMysteriousWatcher – Thank you so much! I love your OC Ezio that you sent me, and I loved the fight scene description! Thanks for your help!
Awesome girl – Thank you.
Maya – I'm sorry for the long wait between updates, but I can only update about once a week, and most of my free time is on the weekends. Also, as for the POK season, the new episodes are going to be at the end of February. The story still has a few more chapters to go!
Disclaimer: I own nothing except for my OCs Tate and Indigo. Ezio belongs to TheMysteriousWatcher.
Brady POV
I sighed as I finished practice with Boomer and Boz. Even though I am usually a very good fighter, I just wasn't on my A game ever since that Ezio guy showed up. While I was slightly upset that he was with my Mikayla, there was something else about him that was bugging me, something rather suspicious.
"Hey Brady, we're going to go take a nap." I was pulled out of my thoughts by my brothers' voices. I nodded. "Alright guys. We've done enough training for today." Both of my brothers nodded before they turned and left the plaza. Mikayla had left a few minutes earlier, saying she was tired from her patrol. That just leaves me to deal with the situation on hand.
I quickly glanced around to make sure no one else was in the plaza before I sprinted into the forest, intent on finding Ezio. I rushed through the forest as fast as I could, my eyes scanning every detail, no matter how small. A broken twig, some crushed leaves, anything that could lead me to Ezio.
Finally I came upon a cave area that resembled the Lady of the Cave's area. As soon as I entered the rock walls I smirked to myself. Walking around the area was the person I had been searching for. He moved quietly, but he left some tracks behind. I watched as Ezio continued walking until he reached the wall before quickly scaling it as if it was nothing. Not bad. I followed suit, happy that Mr. Mason had taught me how to climb rock walls as well.
I then quietly followed Ezio, sticking to the shadows to stay hidden. Said man quietly walked through the jungle, occasionally stopping to look around, as if he knew I was following him. I tried to stay as quiet as I could as well because I didn't want to alert Ezio of my presence.
Together we continued, him leading while I was following him, until he stopped suddenly. I stopped as well, confused on the sudden pause in the journey. "Spider!" Ezio screamed like a small girl before he dove into a bush. I then noticed what he had been running from. It was a little baby spider. Some hero. I mentally scoffed. Said 'hero' continued to hide in the bush until the baby spider scurried away, into the bush Ezio was hiding in. Said man screamed before running out of the bush, brushing himself off like a mad man.
After a few more minutes of hopping around, Ezio finally calmed himself down. I was trying hard to hold in the laughter from watching him jump up and down like crazy. However, I was too busy trying not to laugh that I stepped on a small twig, cracking it immediately. This caused Ezio and I both to freeze where we were. So much for being sneaky. I mentally scolded myself for not being more careful. "Who's there?" Ezio called out as he spun around, his eyes glancing around wildly. I quietly slid behind a tree before scaling it, making as little noise as I possibly could.
"I said who's there?" Ezio growled as he walked around the area until he stopped right under my tree. I held my breath and hoped he wouldn't think about climbing the tree and find me. Ezio stood still for a moment, examining his surroundings before he started walking again, his senses on high alert. I continued to watch him until he was a safe distance away before I silently dropped out of my tree and followed him.
We continued through the forest until we came upon the cave that I had stayed at when I first came back to Kinkow. However, Ezio continued walking and did not even spare a glance at the cave. Where is he going? A bird cawed out from somewhere above me, breaking my focus on Ezio. I scanned above me for a quick second before shifting my gaze back to Ezio only to find him gone. Dang it! First rule taught by Mr. Mason: Don't take your eyes off the enemy.
"So you're the one who's been following me." I whirled around already unsheathing my sword. "What are you up to?" I growled. Ezio just smirked. "That's for me to know and you not to." This annoyed me greatly and Ezio noticed too. "Hmm. You would think for someone who is so good at fighting you would be able to mask your emotions. I mean, you did leave the island for a year after all, and you were no fighter before you left, so it isn't too hard to put two pieces together. After all, you did leave to learn how to be a better king, no? Oh wait, it was because of the pretty guard girl wasn't it? You left because you knew she would never in a thousand years, if not more, ever fall for you, and she still won't."
Now he was just pushing my buttons. How does he know about all of this? Only Boomer, Boz, Mikayla, Lanny, and Mason knew about why I left and what happened while I was gone. As if reading my thoughts, Ezio spoke up. "Wondering how I know, hmm? Let's just say that I am very good at staying still for long periods of time, and find the most unique places to hide and spy on people." No wonder that before I left I always felt like I was being watched.
"So why chose now to make an appearance?" I questioned, my grip on my sword relaxing ever so slightly. "Well, I figured that the guard girl could use some help, and I wanted to bug her so I followed her to the castle." Ezio replied. I nodded. "What about you? Why are you back here on Kinkow?" Ezio stepped towards me. I still stood my ground though. Deciding to bug him, I used his response from earlier. "That's for me to know and you not to." Ezio stared at me for a moment before he smiled.
"You are something else, aren't you King Brady? Guard girl must like you for that." I stared at him, confused on what he meant. Ezio must have noticed because he laughed. "Please, I see the way you two were looking at each other. I'm just surprised no one else has noticed." My mouth opened slightly in amazement. How does he know? Mikayla and I have been so good at hiding it.
Ezio stepped towards me once more, causing me to tighten my grip on my sword and to back up slightly. I opened my mouth to speak when we both heard screams. Our heads snapped to the sound and we pulled up our hoods before we both took off running towards the noise.
Together Ezio and I burst into a clearing only to find my brothers, Mikayla, and Mason surrounded by about twenty Tarantula People. The Makoolas were weaponless and they were all trapped. "No." I whispered under my breath. "Look, we have to work together in order to save your friends and family. We can go back to not trusting each other later, but for now we have to help each other." Ezio whispered. I stared at him for a moment. "Fine." Ezio nodded before he silently motioned that he would take the right while I took the left.
Together we quietly split up, both of our weapons drawn. The Tarantula People were too distracted by my friends and family to notice the two warriors sneaking around. Ezio and I both climbed a tree on opposite sides of the clearing before he used his daggers to reflect the light of the sun, giving me the signal to attack. I used my sword to signal I was ready as well. We both counted to three until we launched ourselves out of the trees and onto the Tarantula People. I landed on one's shoulders and stood up on him while he tried to shake me off.
Chaos broke in the clearing. The Tarantula People were trying to figure out what was attacking them while Ezio and I were trying not to get killed. Boomer and Boz were hiding behind a tree while the Makoolas were trying to fight the best they could.
I quickly used my sword to behead the Tarantula Person I was standing on before leaping onto another. Ezio was doing the same as me. Together we leapt from Tarantula Person to Tarantula Person, killing them all. The clearing was beginning to be stained red from all of the blood.
I continued my fighting strategy before I miss judged the distance between two Tarantula People and fell onto the ground. I landed on my feet but I was instantly surrounded by all of the new Tarantula People who were spilling into the clearing in waves. There's so many of them. How can we defeat all of them if it's just Ezio and I fighting? I then had an idea. "Mikayla, Mason, the weapons!" I screamed out before launching myself at two of the Tarantula People who were surrounding me, not even bothering to check if the two Makoolas were following my command.
I fought mercilessly. If it was a Tarantula Person then it met its end. I used every single fighting technique I had ever learned just to try and live. I sliced off the head and other body parts of one whilst sweeping my leg under another Tarantula Person to knock him down before driving the sword into his heart. My movements were quick, sharp, and precise. I always hit my target where I wanted to.
Ezio was moving around the same pace as I was, driving his daggers into the necks of other Tarantula People while slashing across their skin, leaving long red lines that began to bleed furiously. Ezio was continuously on the move, hopping from warrior to the next while taking out anything in his way.
There was soon dead bodies littering the ground, and the grass that was once green was now a deep red. There was also a metallic smell in the air as well. Boomer and Boz had come out from behind their tree and were now working together to defeat Tarantula People one at a time. The Makoolas were back to back and were fighting the best that they could in the small space with weapons that they had picked up from the ground.
I continued to fight until Ezio and I were back to back. "Duck." I hissed as a Tarantula Person threw a dagger towards us. We both ducked down, the dagger missing us by inches. "We need to end this, fast." Ezio hissed in response. "And how do you think we should do that?" I replied sarcastically as I blocked two attacks at the same time, all three of the weapons clanging together. "Well, we could stop fighting and see what they do to us,"
"Yes, I could see that ending well." I muttered under my breath. Ignoring my comment Ezio continued to talk. "We could all team up together and try to fight them like that." I shook my head. "That would give them one big target and the ability to surround all of us at the same time." Ezio nodded. "Finally, we could-" Ezio stopped mid-sentence as all the Tarantula People began to back away from us and runaway into the jungle.
We both stood up straight and looked around only to find the others still in the clearing, looking around confused as well. "Guys, what's going on?" Boz questioned as he stepped forward, Boomer, Mason, and Mikayla following behind him. "Maybe they were scared of us so they left?" Boomer spoke up. Everyone relaxed, thinking the Tarantula People were gone, but I stayed on high alert, Ezio doing the same. "This can't be right. They wouldn't just give up like that." I muttered, walking around the clearing. "I hate to say it, but King Brady is right. This doesn't make sense." Ezio spoke up before a dark mist began to fill the clearing. My eyes trained on the center of the mist where I could make out a human form.
We all watched as a man walked up towards us. He was fairly tall, about Mason's height, and had solid black hair that was cut about the same length as Mason's was. His eyes were an onyx black color. Behind us, Mikayla gasped quietly. "Bravo, you've managed to fight off a few Tarantula People." The man clapped sarcastically as he spoke with a cold tone of voice that chilled me to the bone. "Who are you?" I questioned as I walked forward, ready to fight at any moment should the need arise. "You don't know who I am? What have they been teaching you?"
"Enough to know you aren't any good." Ezio growled as he stepped up beside me. The man laughed in response, a deep laugh that could drive fear into the heart of anyone. "Well, aren't you a tough one?" The man flicked his wrist, sending Ezio flying through the air before he crashed against a tree, a cry of pain escaping him. All of us turned back to the man. "Who are you?" I growled as I took a step towards the man.
"I wouldn't come any closer unless you want to end up like your friend, King Brady. As for who I am, my name is King Blackfire. You may have never heard about me because I was lost at sea when I was a baby, leaving my brothers, Kalaki and Malaki to rule Kinkow. I was the forgotten one; the one who everyone thought was dead, much like your brother Boz hmm?" King Blackfire shifted his attention so that his gaze was on Boz who squirmed under the pressure of his gaze.
"You see though, I was always closer to Kalaki then I was to Malaki, and once Kalaki fled to the other side of the island and created the dark side I swore that I would help him take down the light side when I returned, and now I'm here to complete my mission. I will succeed where my brother failed. Kinkow is doomed, and so are you!" He smirked before he disappeared in a cloud of grey smoke. I turned to the others, Ezio included as he had come to stand beside Mason. "It looks like we are going to have a war on our hands." Everyone nodded. Please let me be able to save the island.
There you guys go! What do you think of King Blackfire? I will add him onto my profile under the My OCs section! Thanks for reading!
Lots of Hugs,
