When I awoke the next morning I noticed that the voices were loud meaning that it was busy. I just hope that the guy from last night wasn't there. I stretched before I got up and got dressed. "Connor?" I called as he appeared in the opening of the rooms.
"You are awake, are you ready to leave?" He asked.
"I am." I answered before I walked down the stairs.

I took a seat at a table while I waited for Connor.
"Kiera?" I heard a voice question. I turned around to see a somewhat familiar face.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Nicholas, we played games together when we were little." He sat down next to me.
I gave him a smile,"It's nice to see you again." I told him.
"I wish I came here for a chat but I'm here for business. This is for you." He handed me an envelope with the insignia that I knew too well. I looked up at him before he got up and left. I opened it slowly as I was anticipating what it said inside.

I took out the letter and started to read the words one by one as I was putting it all together.
"What is that?" Connor asked me as I closed it.
"Nothing." I said in a strong manner. I got up and looked at him. Then I heard the front door open and I saw two red coats. My eyes widened as I stuck the letter in Connor's pocket because I knew that I would loose it. I waited patiently as I overheard that they were looking for a girl with red hair. At that moment I took it as a partial distraction so Connor and I could escape. I tugged at his arm as I started to walk out.
"Why do they want you?" He asked me.
"No time for this." I said as I got on my horse as he did the same.
"Oi! Stop!" I heard the red coats ell.
"Sorry but I have a previous engagement." I yelled as I took off, with Connor not far behind me.
"Why do they want you?" He asked me.
"I'm not sure." I lied as I knew the exact reason why. My father must want me in his custody to learn of Connor's past or something.

We slowed down once we were safe from the red coats but I needed to get back home to show Achilles the letter.

It took a little while before we reached the homestead once more. I jumped off of Patches as we were near the stables. I looked to Connor before I put my hand out. It took him a second but he gave me the letter that I grab him. I ran inside and looked to see that Achilles was in the study.

"I see that you are back. How was Boston?" He asked me.
"Pleasant but I got this from an old childhood friend." I gave him the letter,"it's from my father." I continued before Connor entered the house.
"Connor, Could you go get something for me, Norris knows where it is." He looked to Connor before he was off.
"How did e know that you were staying there?" He asked me.
"Charles Lee saw us last night along with this man who claimed that I was his daughter. Someone must f set word to him." I explained as I sat down.
"Did the Red Coats come after you this morning?" He asked.
"They did but I do not feel comfortable with Connor knowing this. I have to ask that this stays between us, until it gets to that point." I requested.
"Of course, but you are the one who will tell him." He looked at me as he was reading over the letter.
"I am going to go out for a bit." I smiled as Hunter came dashing in and almost knocked me over.
"Hi boy." I smiled as I petted him. "I will be back." I smiled at Hunter, he let out a bark and started wagging his tail. "Then you meet me by the lake." I smiled as I went out the back door with Hunter following. "Now go down by the lake." I smiled as he started running. I myself was planning to run and jump off of the cliff into the water. I took of my hat and started running before I jumped and dove into the lake. I swam to the shore to be met by Hunter and Connor.
"Your back quickly." I smile at him.
"I couldn't find Norris, I will go back later. What are you doing?" He asked me.
"I'm swimming. Going for a nice swim is always relaxing." I looked at him before I splashed him.
"Don't you ever have any fun?" I asked him. No answer. I got up out of the water and started walking towards him.
"There is no time for fun." He said.
"When you get married you are going to bore your wife to death." I retorted. He raised his eyebrows before he started to walk away. That gave me the opportunity to run and tackle him but he turned around in a swift moment and grabbed me before I could tackle him to the ground. I saw him smile a bit and I looked at him.
"You have to be a but more quiet than that to sneak up on me." He laughed. Challenged Accepted.

During the week I tried to sneak up on Connor but I kept failing miserably. This time Connor was sharping his tomahawk and I was siting in a nearby tree as I waited for the right moment to pounce.
"Ratonhnhaké:ton! Ratonhnhaké:ton!" Connor's friend who I didn't know the name of came towards us out of breath. As Connor stepped away from his hatchet I saw that opportunity to take him out. Though his friend looked at me and Connor caught me as he spun around.
"Connor I will get you." I told him before he set me down. He turned back to his friend as I stayed silent.

"Kanen'tó:kon? Why are you here? Has something happened?" Connor asked, worried.

"William Johnson has returned - with all the money required to buy our land. He meets with the elders as we speak. I have begged them to resist. But I fear he shall have his way unless you intervene." He told his friend.

"Please, you have to stop him." He pleaded.

"Of course. Can you tell me where they are meeting?"

We followed Kanen'to:ken on horseback to a cliff overlooking a lake.

"Johnson Hall is just across the river, but the water is heavily guarded." Kanen'to:kon pointed to a dock with guards there.

I started to walk forward but Connor stepped in front of me.
"You will stay here." He instructed me. I crossed my arms before I ran past him and tried to jump off the cliff into the lake but Connor grabbed my arm. "It is too dangerous for you to go." He looked at me.
"I can take care of myself." I looked to him as I tried to get out of his grasp. "I will only follow you." I added.

"I will go that way, you just be quiet and take out the guards silently." He told me before he started to run through the trees, I on the other hand dove into the water and swam over to the docks. I took out both guards before I scaled the rocks. I hid in the bushes as I saw Connor at the top of Johnson Hall. I watched him as he leaped and stabbed Johnson. That was my cue to start fighting the Red Coats off as Connor was listing to his last words. Once that was done Connor looked to me. I started running towards the cliff and dived in. Connor followed after me. We started swimming to tell Connor's friend the good news.

When we arrived back at the manner is was twilight. I had changed into my night gown and was outside sitting on the balcony.
"So is this we're you've been hiding?" Achilles asked me.
"I guess you could say that." I smiled to him.
"Are you worried about your father?" He asked me. I looked to him and nodded.
"I don't know why but the thought thy he knows I'm still alive and that he is looking for me worries me." I sighed.
"Don't worry Keira, Connor and I will protect you along with Sam Adams." He reassured me.
"Thank you Achilles." I smiled before I looked up at the sky.
"Though I do suggest that once this is over please find a suitable husband." He smiled as he took his leave.
"Will do." I chuckled softly to myself as I looked up at the sky.
