Assassin's Creed: Remnant

Chapter 25

Y/n POV

Port and Oobleck continued the matches while the guards kept an eye on them and me. I tried multiple times to escape but that only resulted in getting pistol whipped or whacked with an electrified baton.

Y/n: Why do I have to be here exactly?

Templar 1: Because you will help us achieve our goal.

Y/n: Overrunning Beacon and killing every teacher there?

Templar 2: And every student. You will be an example when the time comes.

Y/n: That would just attract Grimm.

Templar 2: That's the point. The more Grimm that come, the more deaths there will be.

Y/n: You're sick.

Templar 1: We are only looking for something we've been searching for non stop for generations.

Y/n: What? A fuckin' glowing ball or something?

They both glare at me and one of them takes out the baton again and hits me in my abdomen and holds the baton there electrocuting me causing me to yell out in pain. I feel the heat of the electricity on my abdomen before they take it off. I pant heavily as smoke rose from where they hit me.

Templar 1: You've talked enough.

Y/n: *pant* You *pant* thing I'll be quiet that easily?

The other one takes out his baton and starts beating me with it causing the electricity to spread across my whole body with every hit and with every hit I yell out in pain as they both beat me with their electrified batons. One stops beating me and pistol whips me in the head causing me to black out. When I wake up with my head pounding I see it's nightfall outside and I'm still tied to the chair. The two guards were still in the room and stood beside Port and Oobleck with their pistols out.  I groan due to my head aching from the pistol whip which catches the attention of both the Templars.

Templar 1: You're finally awake.

Templar 2: Thought I might've killed ya with that one.

Y/n: *groan* I'm a tough motherfucker.

Templar 2: You're tough, but not unbreakable.

Y/n: *sigh* Before we get to the next beating, what's the time?

Templar 1: It's 12 at night. A couple minutes left before the Iron Man comes back.

Y/n: You mean General Ironwood? What does he get out of this anyway?

Templar 1: Why would we tell you our goals?

Y/n: Villain monologue? Have you even seen any movies?

Templar 2: Some but-

Templar 1: You're proving his point!

The Templar whacks me with the baton again but before he could strike me again Ironwood walked through the door causing them both to freeze in their spots.

Ironwood: I hope you boys have been kind to our guests.

Y/n: Mostly.

Ironwood walked to where Port and Oobleck were and grabbed the microphone off them as all the screens in the arena turned to the Templar cross instead of the battle that was being played out.

Ironwood: Hello, everyone. Most of you know me as General Ironwood, but many know me by another name. The Iron Man.

One of the Templars take out a camera and point it at me and I see my face on the screens instead of the Templar cross.

Y/n: Huh, ain't he a handsome devil, hehe-

I was silence by an electric baton to the abdomen causing me to yell out in pain as it was held on my abdomen.

Ironwood: Mr. Branwen has kindly 'offered' to be an example of what the Templars plans are for Beacon. The first execution.

Y/n: *strained and in pain* That's if you are successful- AHH!!

The Templar pushes harder with the baton causing me to yell out louder.

Ironwood: I have Templar soldiers all across Beacon and Vale. Once I make an example of Mr. Branwen, an attack will commence that can't be stopped.

Ironwood takes out a pistol and slowly starts walking toward me but another Templar runs in seeming panicked.

Templar soldier: Sir, there's an assassin within the building!

Ironwood sighs and hands the soldier the gun and tells him to finish me off before walking out. I look at the Templar who holds the pistol at me and all I can think is what kind of life I had. From one turned to shit turned to one I will always cherish. I close my eyes waiting for the bullet until I heard two gunshots. I open my eyes and see both the Templars dead, the camera broken on the floor and the third one changing into a familiar face.

Y/n: That's a face I wanted to see before I die.

Altaïr: Yeah, yeah. Grab your things.

Altaïr cuts me out of the chair I was bonded to before we both run out of the commentators booth. We run through the halls and into the locker room where we see my team all gearing up so I run to my locker and get my weapons out and my assassin robes.

Ezio: Well, at least we know where you were for about six hours.

Y/n: Yeah, got tortured for a few hours but we've got a job to do.

Edward: That, we can agree on.

Once everyone had their gear ready we turn around and see team RWBY and JNPR starring at us. We were all frozen as not sure who was going to speak first. But I was surprised when I had Ruby and Yang run up to me and tightly hug me while crying into my robes. I was surprised by this but hug them back before looking up at Pyrrha who was on the verge of tears.

Y/n: You waiting for an invitation?

She ran over and joined the hug, hugging me tighter than the other two but not too tight as to suffocate me. Once everyone lets me go the others walk into the room.

Jaune: Are you alright, man?

Y/n: Yeah, my team and I just need to get out there and stop this.

Nora: We can help!

Y/n: This is a decades old war between Templars and Assassins. If you get involved, it will only put a target on your teams backs and all your friends.

Ren: There has to be some way we can help.

???: We wanna help too!

I look behind Ren and see team CVFY, NDGO and every other team that competed in the tournament. I sigh and pull my hood down as did my team.

Y/n: Alright, fine. You all can help but this is your one and only chance to back out. If you want to leave, no one will blame you.

Flint: Where's the fun in that? I'm stayin'!

Nebula: So are we!

Everyone else agreed to stay and defend Beacon and Vale at the risk of their lives. I smile at the dedication of the students.

Y/n: Alright. I need half of you to go to Vale and defend it. There will be other Assassins there so do not open fire on them, you will be joined by Kassandra and Alexios. The other half will join the rest of my team at Beacon.

The students where quick to assign themselves to where they were going. Kassandra and Alexios ran off with half the group to defend Vale while the half that was coming with my team and I starred at me. I pull my hood up as did my team before quickly loading Ebony and Ivory.

Y/n: Let's fill the Iron Man with dust.
