Okay, im really sorry I haven't been writing a lot I do hate to procrastinate but please forgive me and thank you for reading haha now enjoy cause this one might interest you!
I wake up naked and next to Connor blushing at how we had gotten into this state. I sit up and search for my scattered clothes along with Connors and munch on food. Im much hungrier then usual but then I remember I probably didn't eat enough last night. Once I clean up around the camp and pack up Connor starts to stir and finally wakes up after I nudge him enough, "Up." I say.
After annoying him and poking him he gets dressed and stretches, "Im going to see if Haytham has contacted the assassins, you can come with me." He says while getting a piece of meat.
I was just about to reply when I felt sick and quickly ran over behind a tree to vomit. Connor comes over to me with concern, "I-Im fine I think the meat went bad." I wipe my mouth and walk ahead of Connor. We tread through the snow which was tiring and I had to struggle because Connor was fast. Once we got to the tavern we found our horses and headed to Boston.
Connor and I wait outside until a man runs up to Connor and starts talking I was too distracted with my thoughts to listen, "Will I run or stay to continue being an assassin?" my heart wanted to stay but the rest of me wanted to run and restart my life and to leave everything behind.
I was startled when Connor said my name and once I turned around he began to talk, "Benjamin church's compound in new York is where we need to retrieve the supplies and find Church, we'll meet up with Haytham near there."
I nod, "When do we meet up?" I mount my horse
Connor mounts his horse, "We need supplies before anything so let's get some at the shop and by then well be ready to leave."I don't object and follow Connor with a feeling of worry and panic.
Once we get to the store I look for herbs and medicines while Connor gets ammo, arrows and clothes for tonight after that we head off to New York with me feeling more unusual. Once we get to New York we change in to our new clothes an can help but glance at the half naked beautiful man and I feel him glance at me causing me to blush. I follow Connor careful not to bring attention to ourselves and move with stealth. We Find Haytham who I instinctively scowl at and he just chuckles as he informs Connor of the plan.
Once we get inside Haytham runs up to a door, "It's locked give me a moment." He begins to lock pick it and I try to find another way around when I can't help but eavesdrop on their conversation.
"Must be strange for you discovering my existence as you have." Im surprised to hear Connor so calm around a templar.
"I'm actually curious to know what your mother might have said about me. I always wondered what life might have been like had she and I stayed together. How is she by the way?" Haytham asks.
Connors voice comes out broken and threatening, "Dead, murdered."
"What? I am sorry to hear that."I hear real sadness in Haythams tone.
Connors voice gets shaky with sadness, "Oh, you're sorry? I found my mother burning alive. Ill never forget her face as she sent me away. Charles lee is responsible for her death by your order. And you're sorry" I knew I had to intervene before this got worse.
"Done with that lock yet?" I say acting as if I didn't hear anything but they ignore me.
Haytham is the first to talk," That's impossible. I gave no such order. I spoke the opposite, in fact-I told them to give up the search for the precursor site. We were to focus on more practical pursuits…"
Connor looked at me and back at Haytham, "It is done, I'm all out of forgiveness."
The door opens and Connor goes in first and I get a quick glance at Haytham only to see real sorrow and guilt in his eyes. I walk beside Connor who ignores me and scowls in thought when find Benjamin church, "Benjamin Church. You stand Accused of betraying the templar order and abandoning our principles in pursuit of personal gain. In consideration of your crime, I hereby sentence you to death." Haytham unsheathes his blade.
It wasn't Benjamin church it was an impostor and we were ambushed, "I knew this was going to go bad." I say stabbing an attacker in the heart.
"You're too late. Church and the cargo are long gone. And im afraid you won't be I any condition to follow…"the impostor taunts us.
I get distracted and a blade catches my side filling me with rage and anger I slice the mans head off. I feel it again the monster wants out and im keeping it in with all my strength causing me to become slow and distracted, "Ah, ugh help!" im stabbed in the leg and side but I still stand. Haytham looks over at me and kills the two attackers much to my annoyance, "Thanks." He smiles and continues fighting.
"We've chosen to stand with the victor. It's Britain who'll win this war!" the impostor rambles and I take my chance to take him down.
He pulls out a gun and prepares to shoot when I take a knife and throw it in his side while the bullet grazes my shoulder, "You stupid man, you are lucky I don't tear you to shreds right here with my hands UGHHHH!" he scrambles away and I hold him by his neck trying to keep myself from frenzy.
Connor and Haytham meet me and both hold the man while I stumble off in pain and anger, "Where is Church?" Connor shakes the man.
"I'll tell you. Anything you want. Only promise that you'll let me live."
Connor nods, "You have my word."
"He left yesterday for Martinique. Took passage on a trading sloop called the welcome. Loaded half its hold with the supplies he stole from the patriots. That's all I know. I swear."Haytham stabs the little man in the gut, "You promised…"
Haytham smirks, "And he kept his word. Now let us be off." We make our exit when men fire their weapons causing the building to be engulfed in flames.
I panic and shake, "Go. I'm wounded I'll slow you down." I feel a sudden pain.
Connor comes to my side, "No. I'm not leaving you now lets go." He half drags half carries me as the smoke and fire grow.
Haytham rushes and clears a path but the ceiling collapses causing me to be separated from the two, "Connor!" I shout coughing there was no question I am going to die here whether from being burned alive or suffocated by the smoke.
I hear them shout my name and dig through the rubble as I start to lose consciousness. A strong pair of arms picks me up and I look up to see who I thought was Connor to be Haytham, "Don't close your eyes."I hear mumbling and a sudden jerk sends us flying into the water and me into painful darkness.
