"So, this is it huh Sailas?" Felix asked.

"Yes, we find the Grand Master, kill every Templar, and bring peace." I answered.

"Isn't killing him what he wants?" Adam asked.

"Yes, but I can't have him going after my family." I answered.

We stood on a rooftop and saw a building with guards, weapons, and the Grand Master himself. This was it, I was gonna kill him for peace.

"It's time." I said.

I dropped in front of him, drawing out my swords.

"Where are--" He asked.

"Your guards? The Assassins are dealing with them. I have some questions before we end this, if you don't mind?" I asked.

"Go ahead." He answered sitting down on a chair.

"Why kill my family? What's this 'potential' have to do with anything?" I asked.

"To unleash the Devil inside you, Black Beard said that your ancestor, Edward 'fought like a Devil, but was dressed as a man.' You're the same way, only the Devil is more.... dangerous." He explained.

"I will bring you peace." I said and we clashed.

I paid very close attention to his moves, but all I could do was block. He was too fast, strong, I couldn't hit him. He slashed my shoulder, kicked my swords out of my hands, jammed his sword into my knee, and bolted me to the ground. He kept punching me. My vision was getting blurry. I guess this is it.

"See? Just like you father, mother, and sister, you're too soft. After I'm done with you, I'm going after that kid and woman. And then, control will be in our grasps. You hear me Saias!? WE, THE TEMPLARS WIN!!!!" He explained.

"Sailas...." Said a voice so familiar I cried.

"Dad?" I asked.

"Yes my son. I need you to unleash that power deep inside." He answered.

"But isn't that what he wants?" I asked.

"No, you control the Devil not him. You're part pirate and my son. You can do this." He said and disappeared.

Then, I unleashed the Devil. I pushed him back to a wall and got up. I grabbed my swords, guns, and charged. He tried to hit me, but I dodge and slash his leg.

"That was for Dea." I said.

He reached for a throwing knife, but I quickly shot him in the shoulder.

"That was for going after my family!" I said.

He tried to get up, but I ran just in time.

"AND THIS IS FOR MY PARENTS!!!!!!" I yelled as I jumped, activated my hidden blade and stabbed him.

"I-I'm impressed Sailas." He said.

"It's over. With all of the things you've done I did not kill you for revenge. I killed you for peace. May the world you wanted be a good one. Rest in peace." I said.

With the Grand Master dead we finally had peace.

My name is Sailas. I am an Assassin.
