After that fateful meeting with the assassin everything changed

I was blindfolded while being guided by the assassin to the headquarters, it felt like we were going around the city for hours, while we walked I tasted the air's saltiness and was able to also taste dirt which mixed together caused me to cough and wheeze "are you alright?" I heard his calm sweet voice and shyly said no nodding my head to the side. He stopped me and put sole thing to my lips "is it water?..." I asked sweetly "yes now drink." I did as I was told and started drinking some of the cold fresh water running through my throat making the taste of the air go away , I turned my head away from the bottle and wiped my mouth so as to not seem dirty and unmannered like a savage even if I did end up on the streets and worked for a selfish rich man who though I'd be ok on my own without even a blanket. Seconds later I felt his warm hands on my shoulders an he said to me kindly "if there is anything you need all you need to do is simply ask don't hold back ok?" I nodded at him and said "mind if I could use a jacket of some sort...that is if you have one.." I felt the warm embrace of a oversized jacket warm my body over like a blanket. "Thank you assassin.." I felt his warm hands onto my shoulder. He was so close to me to the point where I felt his warm breath almost on my cheek and felt his heart beat pound like crazy, I felt my feet start getting numb and more dirtier then they were before, my feet were starting to sting but I hadn't reacted like a pansy would to such cuts since I was so accustomed to it. I was stopped, I instantly felt a gush of cold air mixed with the sweet scent of flowers blooming in spring the likes of which I haven't smelled in a long time. After going inside and hearing the door shut I asked the man kindly "could I please remove the blindfold?" I left the blindfold being removed from my eyes as my eyes grew wide and I smiled then felt tears go down my cheek, I slowly started crying because of joy and sadness. The man reluctantly asked "are you ok nova?" His voice was soothing and caring as I nodded and looked him in the eyes " how do you know my name?"
"I used to know your father and mother and met you when you were only an infant so I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't remember me" he smiled a cocky smile and grabbed my hands, he slowly walked to me a huge room the size of a mansion there were torches all over the room enveloping the room with soft brightness and warmth, I gave the assassin his jacket back and smiled at him. There were pillars on all sides of the room and a humongous desk as long as two cottage houses which was enough to house 30 kids which contained the flag of the assassins. I looked at all 4 of the figures behind the desk, I stayed silent as the assassin I met talked for me "masters..I think this young girl should join the brotherhood, she is strong willed, brave in so many ways that you couldn't possibly imagine"

The figure in the middle took off his hood, he looked like that of an old white man with a white beard and white hair with grey streaks, he had a very deep heinous voice "nova how would you like to join the brotherhood? I also know of what happened to you all those years ago and if it'll help we as the brotherhood with spend time looking for the killer, we need more assassins and if your as strong as Kenway  says then we would love for you to join that is if you will?" The mans sad eyes looked into mine as I thought of so many questions in my head, my mind was racing, I looked at the man who brought me here, he took off his hood. He looked much older then me, his black hair and blue eyes were so mesmerizing that I looked at the old man " I will gladly...join the brotherhood" I said shyly
