Of Thieves And Assassins! ( A Cicero and Brynjolf Story)

Of Theives And Assassins! ( A Cicero and Brynjolf Story)

A girl by the name of Elizabeth Summers was driving home from her job as clerk at a little bookstore. Today was Friday and she was excited to get home and start enjoying her three-day weekend, seeing how she didn’t have work on Monday. Elizabeth or Lizzy for short was going to do nothing but sit in her big red comfy chair and play her favorite game, Skyrim.

Pulling into her driveway she put her car in park and turned off the machine. Then she lazily walked to her front door digging around in her purse for her house keys. When she finally found them she stuck them in the lock and twisted. Entering her small two-bedroom house she was greeted by her medium sized black dog named Ceaser. He jumped at her excitedly wagging his tail in excitement.

"Ok. Ok. Ceaser I know you want out." She said to her dog as she patted his head. Ceaser barked happily running to the back door waiting for his owner to open the door. Letting Ceaser out into the back fenced in yard, she took the time to go upstairs to her room and get changed out of her work uniform and into her pajamas.

When she came back downstairs in her matching Tinker Bell pajamas and her fluffy rainbow slippers she heard her dog whining and scratching the back door wanting in.

After letting Ceaser in she walked into the kitchen and poked around her refrigerator for something to eat for dinner. Being her lazy self she decided that eggs and bacon would be a good dinner so she took them out and proceeded to cook them.

After her dinner she went to the living room, leaving her dishes to be washed later in the sink. Plopping down on her red chair she sighed happily, happy to finally be off her feet. Grabbing her xbox controller and her TV remote from the table beside her chair she proceed to turn both electronics on.

When the main screen of Skyrim started to play the opening song she hummed along. She waited patently for her game to load Ceaser curled up beside the chair sleeping peacefully. When her game started she couldn’t help but smile happily this was her all time favorite game and thanks to her sister who got her the game for her birthday, she was in Heaven.

After the game loaded she saw her Breton. Lizzy chose a Breton because they were the shorter race, and she herself is short. She played her game for a couple hours, she was doing the Guild quests. She had to admit that both Brynjolf and Mercer were very cute. Laughing to herself at thinking a guy that wasn’t even real was cute. But, if she was honest with herself they seemed a hell of a lot better most guys she has met in real life. Most guys she had dated or has gone on dates with were either no good or jerks. She remembered her last boyfriend James. He seemed like a good guy at first but when they got comfortable with each other he started treating her like a slave, and when they got into a pretty heated argument one day he hit her. When he hit her they were arguing about something stupid, probably about putting too many creamers in his coffee. After the strike to her face, Lizzy remembers being emotionally hurt but more pissed off then anything. She remembered turning away from him going up to her room grabbing all of his things and stuffing them into a trash bag still half way full of trash, and walking back into the living room where he was sitting watching TV like nothing had happened, like he didn’t just strike her. Throwing the bag on his lap she stepped back and waited for him to get off the sofa. Jumping from the couch he yelled angrily at her.

"What the hell is this!" She remembers him yelling. Lizzy gave him a blank look from her green eyes.

"Your things. Get Out!" She snapped. James glared at the brown haired girl angrily.

"The hell I am leaving, this is my house!"

"This is not your house it is mine, my name is on the deed. If you do not leave I will call the police then I will call my father." Lizzy’s father was not someone you wanted to mess with. He was an ex-general of the U.S Military and one protective father. James looked at Lizzy in shock as she walked to her phone and picked it up threatening her fingers hovered dangerously over the numbers. James glared heatedly at Lizzy but she didn’t care she had enough. He walked over to the door grabbed his shoes and left slamming the door behind him but not before calling her almost every name in the book.

Elizabeth snapped out of her thoughts just thinking of that night made her sad. Deciding that she was not going to let that night ruin her weekend she shook her head from side to side and clapped her hands in determination.

"Alright! Lizzy you are going to have the best weekend ever and not think of that jerk!" She told herself giggling after when she realized she was talking to herself. Getting back to her game she sighed happily.

An hour past and she was still playing her game. A loud boom from out side scared the brown haired girl. Hearing soft pings against the windows she calmed down realizing it was just a thunderstorm. Ceaser deciding that he didn’t want to be on the floor anymore he jumped into the chair with his owner and curled up on the fold out part and fell back asleep. Elizabeth didn’t think anything of the storm as she played her game. She had just gotten to the part where her character and Mercer entered Snow Veil Sanctum. Getting through the different rooms they finally came to the final door, the puzzle door. Mercer started talking, but Elizabeth wasn’t listening. Her head was spinning and she thought she was going to pass out. Her lights flickered on and off. The game however was unaffected. Lizzy put a hand on her head trying to stop the dizziness it didn’t work. Blood started poring out of the girl’s nose, and the final thing Elizabeth saw before her world went dark was Mercer standing over her game character with his sword drawn. Elizabeth passed out.
