ALIYD shorts (cuz why not?)

An Alternate Universe away

Please take into consideration that Sabre is around the start of Puberty during this and didn't have anyone to be a moral compass as he grew up
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sound of rushed footsteps could be heard through the many trees of the forest as a teen runs down a path, breathing heavily with how fast he is running while holding his right hand over the bleeding wound going down his left arm.

"Find him! He can't have gone far!" The teen hides behind a wide dark oak tree as a squad of knights with strangely flamed torches run past the spot he was hiding behind, the teen took a moment to catch his breath before pulling his hood down to reveal a young Sabre during his time in the assassin's creed world.

Unlike the original timeline, Sabre's dad survived the stab wound for a good few years, just enough to help Sabre learn to control his Shinwa powers before Alaric was killed in front of Sabre (officially this time) and the person who did it stole Sabre's powers, unfortunately the bastard didn't take into consideration that you can't use a Shinwa's powers unless the Shinwa who you stole the powers from were dead, cause the powers would eventually but slowly return to the Shinwa.

Sabre took that advantage when the men's knights were about to toss him to the side and made a run for it as they got the order to kill Sabre.

Sabre had finally taken in what just happened and out of anger punched a part of the dark oak tree, causing some of the tree to become singed and burn with pitch black flames "those.. Bastards!! I'll make them pay for taking mama and papa!" Sabre yelled as a few tears fell down his face becoming the color of the purest black before he himself blacked out.

*a few hours later*

Sabre woke up to see a leafy canopy above him and sat up rubbing his head from the massive headache.

"How's your head?" A deep and older voice asked as Sabre jumped from the question and looked over to see a man in the same knightly attire looking at him with a stern but soft and caring expression, this startled Sabre who backed away from the man "w-who are you?!" "I wouldn't back up anymore if I was you kid" the man said as Sabre glanced behind him for a second to see they were at the very top of a jungle tree, making the teen yelp and move away from the edge in fear of falling off.

"You're lucky I was close by last night, if it were any other knight you would've been killed" Sabre didn't want to believe the man so he tried to summon something so he can get down and run only for his powers to not answer his pleas "w-what the?" "oh yeah, your powers nearly went berserk so I had to temporarily seal them before you lost control and killed everything in sight" the man moved to sit in front of Sabre and put his right hand over where his heart would be.

"Why don't we start over, my name is Darius Whimspore, I was sent to spy on Sebastian Whitaben, the man whose knights you were running from to get some dirt on him and get him arrested when I saw that you were a Shinwa.. That changed the direction of my plan and I knew I had to get you away before your powers were taken and exploited" the man now known as Darius said as he pulled out some bread and held it out to Sabre whose mouth watered at the sight before he shook his head and did not make a move to take the bread.

"Relax kid, I didn't poison it, plus if you don't eat then you'll die of starvation" Sabre looks at Darius and then the bread before he hesitantly took it from Darius and took a bite from the bread before his eyes light up with sparkles and Sabre immediately horks down the bread, making Darius chuckle from the action and passes Sabre a bottle of water.

"Slow down there kid or you'll choke on the bread" Sabre hesitates on drinking the water but takes it anyways and drinks it all, helping his sore throat from yelling his lungs out the previous night 'my god, you are a tiny thing for a child but you downed the bread and water in one fell swoop, I fear for how long you had to go without the proper food to make you strong' Darius thought to himself as Sabre gently placed the bottle down.
