Assassin's Creed: Remnant

Chapter 24

Y/n POV

[Qrow and Winter's fight plays out the same]

As Winter walks away with Ironwood I notice a symbol on her shoulder. The Templar cross. I narrow my eyes but turn to Qrow.

Y/n: Took you long enough.

Qrow: Hey, I was busy.

Y/n: Drinking?

???: What else would he be doing?

I turn around and see mum walking out from behind a tree. I walk over and hug her as my team walks over. mum and I break the hug and walk over to the rest of my team.

Kassandra: Hello, Raven.

Raven: Kassandra, Alexios. Beacon been treating you well?

Alexios: For the most part. How are things back home?

Raven: They're good. Everyone's just been placing bets on who's winning the tournament and so far you guys have most of the votes.

Ezio: Not surprised. We are the best team here after all.

Raven: Not surprised.

???: You shouldn't be.

We all turn around and see Ozpin and Goodwitch walking toward us and Ozpin has that damned coffee mug again.

Edward: I'm starting to think you have a coffee addiction.

Ozpin: Is it any worse then you and Qrow's drinking addition?

Qrow: Edward's basically a pirate and I drink for the hell of it.

Goodwitch: The three of you have issues.

Y/n: There's something you should know about Winter.

Ozpin: And that is...?

Qrow: She's a Templar. I saw the cross on her shoulder.

Y/n: Same.

Ozpin: Templars within Atlas ranks? That is most concerning.

Y/n: You think Ironwood is this Iron Man?

Altaïr: We have multiple points that could prove Ironwood to be this Iron Man.

Ozpin: Maybe, but the leader of the Templars could also be smart enough to point us toward Ironwood as a diversion.

Qrow: Either way I think we should keep a close eye on Jimmy.

Goodwitch: The first smart thing you've said in ages.

Qrow: I'll take that as a compliment.

I hear people walking toward us, when we all turn around we see Ruby and Yang standing nervously.

Ruby: H-hey, Aunt Raven and Uncle Qrow...

Yang: Hey mum...

Raven: I am not your mother, Yang. Not after what you did to Y/n. He may have forgiven but I can't.

Qrow: I haven't decided if I want to or don't want to.

Y/n: Can we move past this topic?

Raven: *sigh* Yes, we can.

Edward: Rum anyone-

Goodwitch: For the love of Oum, stop drinking for two minutes!

Edward: You heard Qrow!

Y/n: *sigh* For fuck sakes, let's just all get some rest for tomorrow. The doubles start then and my team still needs to figure out who we're sending in as our executioners.

Ozpin: Interesting way of phrasing.

Y/n: But it's basically true.

Qrow: The kid ain't wrong, Oz.

Goodwitch: Of course you defend him.

Everyone leaves to their dorm rooms. When my team and I return to ours, Qrow and mum decided to join us. They both slept in the living room on the two couches while my team slept in their rooms. We had decided Ezio and Altaïr will be going into the doubles.

[time skip]

My team and I were watching a match between Emerald and Mercury against Coco and  Yatsuhashi. The match started with Emerald and Mercury backing into the savannah biomes tall grass which prompted Coco to use her minigun as a lawn mower. It was revealed that neither of them were in the savannah until Mercury suddenly dropped down from above and gives Coco and Yastu a beating of a lifetime. Once he's finished his beating, a chain flies out from the forest and wraps around Coco's waist and pulls her into the forest.

Edward: Is that kidnapping?

Y/n: Well, they're all kids.

Ezio: So technically no?

Altaïr: I would say it's kidnapping. I mean, Coco literally got taken away.

Ezio: But is it kidnapping if they're all kids?

Y/n: Oum, are we just questioning our own questions?

Edward: Are we?

Y/n: *sigh* Imma kill myself.

Ezio: But will you truly?

Y/n: Nevermind, I'm gonna kill you and Ed THEN kill myself.

We go back to watching the match which consists of Yastu getting his ass handed to him by Mercury and Coco fighting Emerald. The fight seems to shift to Mercury and Emeralds favour as they quickly gain the upper hand and win their battle. Something felt off though, like the air just shifted. I try brush off the feeling but can't so I excuse myself and walk out. I walk to the men's bathroom and splash some water on my face but when I look up in the mirror I see a Templar with a gun pointed to my head so I put my hands up.

Templar: Don't move.

Y/n: I won't.

Templar: What's your name?

Y/n: Y/n Branwen

Templar: Well, Mr. Branwen, if you cooperate then I might let you live.

Y/n: What do I have to do?

Templar: First, we go to the announcer booth. My leader is waiting.

I put my hands down and start walking with the Templar behind me. I could feel him pressing the gun against my lower back. We continue to walk until we reach the commentator booth where I see Ironwood along with Port and Oobleck with two Templars with guns to their head.

Ironwood: You both continue the matches until midnight.

Port: Y-yes, General Ironwood.

The Templar behind me pushes me toward Ironwood. He grabbed me and looked surprised.

Ironwood: Y/n, you're the last person I expected to be stupid enough to come here.

Y/n: Why are you taking us hostage?

Ironwood: Why would I tell you? Why would I go on and on about my plan just for you to fuck it up?

Y/n: Have the movies taught you nothing?

Ironwood: They taught me to be one. Step. Ahead.

He grabs my shoulder and pushes me onto a chair where a Templar ties me.

Templar: Now you, stay quiet or we will silence you.

The Templar walks out along with Ironwood except the two who had guns out. They stood behind Oobleck and Port but also occasionally checking on me to make sure I wasn't trying anything. Man, I really got myself into a difficult situation.
