HAPPY V DAY!!
"(Name)? Is that you?" Ezio cried out to a figure ahead of him but there was no answer. He walked towards the figure. The person's features started to look alot like you. He got close but you walked away from him.
"(name)? Why are you-
"Don't act like you care now! You proposed to me only to run off for years?! Why did you even bother coming back?!" you said not even looking at him.
"What?"
He came to you in order to get you to look at him.
"Because-"
"Oh! Don't tell me its because you 'love me' right? You make me sick! You know what? Why should I even care any more?"
This can't be you. So angry and bitter.
"Caterina was right to dump you off"
Ezio was stunned. "What?"
"You only care about the brotherhood, so much that you left Cristina alone. And look what happened to her! You can have it then! I'm going back home to my own time Ezio. And I'm taking my baby too."
"Ba......Baby?"
"Yes.
"You.....You can't!" he yelled he can't lose his family....not again!
You walked away from him.
"(name)! Please! Don't do this!!" he said trying to grab you. His hand phased through like you were a ghost.
You started to fade away.
"Goodbye Ezio."
"(Name)!!"
Ezio woke up in a ship. He groaned holding his head early in the morning. He's been having nightmares alot lately, It made hard for him to sleep. Two years have gone ever since he left Rome.
Every night he thought about you. It tore him apart being away from you, but he knew that Cesare would never stop until he made him. He couldn't have a future with you with him alive.
He escaped from jail trying to gather his army again to attack. Every time he would arrive in a village Ezio would just miss him. He never knew it would take so long to find him.
He sighed and went to his bag. He pulled out his ink and some paper. He tried to write on the dry part of the wooden floor. When ever he could he would try to send you a letter. By bird or by any means necessary he would try to stay in contact especially with you. Before he started he pulled out a small metal ring. It was all he could afford. He caressed it thinking about you wearing it.
Dear (name),
I miss you terribly beloved. No words express how much I love you. I wish I can receive letters as well. I want nothing more than to return you and make you my wife. I swear as soon as I find Cesare I will return to you. I know I said that multiple times, but I will come back to you. I knew how strong you are-
The ship rocked hard to the left then the ink spilled all over the letter.
"Cazzo!" he said trying to hang on to something. For a couple of minutes he hung on. He slowly tried to move towards the opening to the top deck. He climbed the stairs to see an unwelcoming dark clouds heading his way.
"Not good!" he thought.
After an hour of swinging back and forth because of the storm Ezio finally made his destination. He immediately got off the ship, found a horse, and charged through the village.
The Village was in chaos. Guards killing left and right. Fires burning multiple houses. Women screaming and children running for their lives. Ezio was furious at what he saw. Angry that Cesare caused this. He was determine now more than ever to kill him.
A cannon ball threw Ezio off his horse. He had to huff it. He killed any guards that opposed him. When he got to a an enemy tower by a bridge he heard his voice.
"What are you idiots waiting for? Kill them!!" Cesare said in a cowardly fashion.
"Cesare. You will not escape from me." Ezio said as climbed the tower. Adrenaline boosting his every move.
At the top Cesare's men charged at him, Ezio went through them like paper. After cutting through multiple men he finally found him,
"Cesare the wall surrounds you there's no where to run!" Ezio said taking out his sword
"Come then Ezio. Fortuna will not fail me. I am the best fighter in all of Italy!!" He said doing the same.
Of Course he called his men in to help him fight Ezio off. Ezio easily fought them off and slowly began to chip away Cesare's armor.
Despite the poison he could still fight Ezio off but he was getting tired. Ezio knew this and kept on fighting until finally he had him on the ground.
"The throne was mine!" he said.
"Wanting it does not make it your right!" Ezio said.
"What do you know?!"
"I know that a true leader empowers the people he rules."
"I will lead mankind into a new world."
"May no one remember your name. Requiscat in pace."
"You think you've won? I may not have victory today but I had won against you!"
"Your position would say otherwise."
"I had eyes everywhere before you came into town. I saw that woman you grown attached to Ezio. (Name) I believe her name is."
Ezio growled.
"I have men following her everywhere assassin! If I die I make sure she will as well!" he said arrogantly.
"He could be lying so I could spare him." he thought.
For a moment Ezio was silent. He thought about it then remember that this man who killed his own family members for power so he'll say and do anything that will make things go in his favor.
"Even if what you said was true she can defend herself, and unlike you she has loyal allies to help her."
He was wide eyed. Cesare snapped.
"You can not kill me!! NO MAN CAN MURDER ME!!" he yelled.
"Then I will leave you in the hands of fate." he said pulling him up and dragged him to the edge. Then he let go. He quickly fell to the hard ground.
This time Ezio climb down to make sure he was dead. He won't make the same mistake like he did with Rodrigo. He arrive to seeCesare on the ground, dead, with his eyes opened blood splattered everywhere. Ezio squatted to close his body to close his eyes.
Then a thought came to his mind about his threat about (name). He still felt uneasy about it. Now that he had killed Cesare he can return to Rome. He didn't how he was going to get there with all this chaos around him but he hoped the ship he was on was still there.
"(name). I'm coming home. please wait for me."
You looked out your window seeing sites you recognized. You thought everything that happened to you. It seemed like a dream to you. Ezio, the creed, Italy, all like a fanfic. You drunk a glass of water and placed it on the table trying to center yourself.
Then you felt a tug on you. It was your little girl Alex. She was a mirror image of you except her eyes. She had Ezio's charm and your sense for adventure.
"Mama! Up!" she said reaching for you. You smiled and lifted Alex.
"Hello Alex!" You said kissing her. You twirled her around.
"Weeeee!" she said. You loved hearing her happy.
"Are you ready for your birthday tomorrow?" you asked her.
"YES!" she giggled.
"How old are you gonna be?"
"Uh....um....this old!" she said showing you two fingers.
"That's right! And what do you want for your birthday?"
" To see Daddy!" she said.
You froze. Ezio.
You hugged her close. You weren't sure Ezio would be here for her birthday. You prayed that somehow a miracle would come.
"(Name)? " a voice called.
You both turned to see who called.
"Mom."
"Grandma Maria!!"
You let Alex down. She ran to Maria with a smile and opened arms. She insisted that you called her mom.
"My darling!" she said picking her up.
You had no regrets for your choice. You smiled seeing both smiling and talking.
"I came to tell you that her party has unfortunately has been moved until the evening tomorrow. The Creed leaders would like a meeting about the aftermath of The Borgia's reign. They really want you to participate." Maria explained.
Your face changed. You sighed.
"I see. I'm disappointed about this. I wanted her to have the whole day to celebrate. After the meeting I'm spending the rest of my time with my daughter." You said to her.
Maria smiled. "I wouldn't want it any other way. I believe Bart and Pat will be arriving today. La Vope and Claudia will be here tomorrow for the meeting."
"Perfect. We should be back soon." you said taking Alex from her.
"Tell Leonardo I said hello!" you said.
"Uncle Leo! Uncle Leo!" Alex said being carried by you.
You knocked on the door. Waited for it to open.
"(Name)! Alex! Its my favorite ladies." Leo said.
"UNCLE LEO!" Alex shouted.
"Don't shout Alex."
"Its alright! I love visits with my favorite student."
"Raimundo won't be happy hearing that." you said
"Can't I have two top students?"
"No!" Alex said hugging Leo.
You both laughed.
"Please come in. Salai! Fetch our guests some fruit and bread." he said.
You heard him move from the study to the kitchen.
"I remembered when I was your assistant." you said.
"At least you don't spend my hard earn money on gambling."
"I heard that!!" a voice came from the back.
"Sally!! Sally!!" Alex said after Leo put her down. She ran to the kitchen to hug Salai.
"I hate it when she calls me that." he grumbled.
You and Leo laughed.
"Have you heard from Ezio?" he asked.
"No...."'
"He'll come back. He always does."
"When Leo? Its about two years. One more and I'm gone forever! The whole point of staying is that so I could be with him."
"(name) I know its hard but don't give up on him. I'm sure he's doing everything in his power to come back."
"I wanted to have a family with him in it. I should have known better."
"He'll be here (name) I know it."
"Momma! We got food!" Alex said with a plate with grapes.
"She kept asking me if she could help." Salai groaned carrying the rest of the food.
"I helped!!!" Alex said bouncing up and down spilling the grapes.
"Great a mess for me to clean." he thought.
"Alex sweety put the plate on the table please." you said.
She slammed the plate on the table.
You winced and looked at Leo. He waving his hand to you letting you know not to worry about it.
Alex sat next to you and was about to eat
"Alex what do you say to Uncle Leo and Salai?" you said
"Thank you."
"Good and remember to pray over your food."
"Yes mama."
She bowed her head and closed her eyes.
"Aaaaameeen!" then she started eating like slob.
"I gotta work on table manners." you groaned.
"She's adorable." Leo smiled.
"Thwank quo unkle lweo!" Alex said with her mouth full.
Ezio's charm alright.
After Lunch you both came back to the hideout. Isabel came to greet you.
"Hello Alex, (name). D'angleo is here with his wife." she said.
"Mommy! Can I see them please!!"she begged.
"Alright but after you say hi you have to go to your lessons with Isabel. Ok?"
"Ok..." She groaned. She thought her lesson were boring.
All three of you went inside the hideout. Everyone knew little Alex. Everyone said hi or patted her head. They were like family.
"ALEXANDRA AUDITORE!" a booming voice echoed.
"Uncle Bart! Auntie Pat!" she said running towards them.
Bart knelled down with open arms.Alex ran up to him and he lifted her up.
"YAY!"
"Oh. Your getting big little one!"he said hugging her.
"Auntie Pat! You look pweaty!" Alex said.
"Thank you that's so kind of you young lady." she said kissing her cheek.
Alex giggled.
"Alright Alex time for lessons." you said walking up to them.
"Aw man!" she said as Isabel came to take Alex.
"Its my birthday tomawo. Are you coming?" she asked before she left.
"A WAR OF ITALY ITSELF WOULDN'T KEEP US AWAY!"
"Yay!!" she said as she walked away.
"Adorable!" both said.
You smiled seeing them both.
"Its good to see you both."
"Any chance to see little Alex the great!" Bart said.
You smiled but then asked.
"I heard the Borgia still has a few lingering agents in the city trying to cause trouble." you said.
"Yes. We need to weed them out without causing problems for the recovering economy." Pat said.
"We can talk later! Bring on the food!" Bart said.
Ezio luckily got to his ship but he had no money after wards and he won't be able to afford fast transportation. Even Horse back will take forever. Even so he had to find something.
The stables barely had any horses and they were was undernourished and won't be able to move much less be able to ride.
"This is hopeless-"
Then suddenly a carriage came to a blacksmith to stop. The man left it unattended.
"Close enough." He said as he snuck to it. He sat down, grabbed the reins, and said "Hiya!!
The Horses neighed and went full force to any direction Ezio wants them too.
"Stop! Theif!" the man said.
"I can hopeful get there within a day's ride. Hiya!"
Next Day
In Rome a little girl was getting ready for her birthday party. It was getting darker.
Decoration was being spread all over a courtyard near the river. Tables were being set up. The cooks were preparing the food and cake.
Maria, Claudia, and Pat was helping with the coordination with the party. While they were planing the kids were playing inside the building. Isable had the day off so Salai was sent to babysit but the kids got away. Most assassins were away or on missions in the city.
Elena and Alex was playing tag inside the library while Raimondo was trying to read.
"Come on Ally! You can't catch me like that!" Elena teased running around the book shelves knocking books over as she did.
"Come back here!" Alex said chasing Elena.
Raimondo tried to tune them out. Every minute they got louder.
"You won't catch me!"
"Yes I will!"
Raimondo growled.
"GOTCHA!" Alex tackled her.
"Oh! No fair!"
Then Raimondo snapped.
"Shut up! Both of you!"
"You shut up fat head!" Elena countered.
"Guys don't fight!" Alex said.
Then Elena jumped on Raimundo and started pulling his hair.
"OW! Let go!" Rai said.
"What's wrong scarredy cat? Fight like a man!" she said pulling harder.
"Stop it guys!" Alex said scared.
You just happened to pass by the library hearing the commotion. You walked in on the two children fighting each other.
"WHAT'S GOING ON!" you said.
The children froze.
"Elena get down. You should know better than that!" you said.
"But He told up to shut up!"
"But they were making noises while I was trying to read!"
"That's no excuse for fighting!"
The two looked down.
"Does this mean they won't com to my party?" Alex asked.
They both looked at you with puppy dog eyes.
"No. They can come." you melted.
"YAY" they all said.
"AFTER you both clean this mess you made in this room." you said.
"AWW!"they said.
"Would you rather get a spanking from your mother?" you asked.
They rapidly shook their head "no".
"Alex, time to get ready." you said holding out your hand.
"But I don't like puffy dresses."
"You can wear it for one night honey."
"But I don't wanna!" stopping her feet whining loudly with crocodile tears coming.
"Alex...." you said in a motherly tone. "Your wearing the dress or you can't go to the party. Understand?"
"I don't want-"
You gave a motherly glare.
"Yes ma'm." she said defeated.
"Good girl." you said,
Salai came to You and said "Forgive me. They gave me the slip."
"Its ok you don't have to babysit anymore." No way you were trusting him with the kids again.
"Oh thank you!" he said walking away.
"I'll have Isabel watch them." you said to your self walking Alex to your room to get dressed.
That afternoon. At Leo's he was just getting ready for the party until he heard a banging against the door.
"Salai?" he thought as he went to the door.
"Did the children tricked you agai-"
It was Ezio!
"Ezio? How....What....Is that a carriage?"
"Where....is....(name)?" he said out of breathe.
"Easy my friend let's get you inside to rest."
"I do not....need....it. " he passed out.
"You think I be used to this." Leo said.
Thirty minutes later he came to.
"My head."
"Your gonna run your body ragged."
"I'll live." he said.
He sat up.
"Where is (Name)?"
Leo paused to try to break the news that he has a kid.
"She's at a meeting now, but she'll be at a party tonight if you want to surprise her." Leo thought of an idea About Alex.
"No. The last time I surprised someone at a party, it went poorly." Ezio remember the time he did the same to Cristina and it only made her hate him more.
"Trust me! This will be different, now this is what will do."
"The agents are everywhere we need to smoke them out." Bart said.
"My thieves have confirmed that a few can be killed easily. Only four of them are in major political positions." LA Vope said.
"Then we need to expose them before they change laws back to what they were." Claudia said.
"I propose that use spy against spy. We use our men to go undercover and expose each rat." You said.
"That will be risky but I support this idea." Mach said.
"We need to elect a member who can handle cover missions. After they get what they need we expose them all at the same time." Pat said.
"Are we all in agreement?" you asked.
"Aye!" everyone said.
"Motion passed. We meet back here in a month for a progress report If not use messenger birds for info. Meeting adjourn!" you said.
"(name)!" Claudia said.
"Yea?" you said.
"I had to admit. I was impressed that you held this meeting. The men would never say so but they felt the same way."
You blushed.
"Nah I just did what I thought was right." you said.
"Do not be modest. Ezio will be proud."
You felt your heart ache again.
"He will come back (name)."
"Everyone keeps saying that but I'm not so sure." yo said.
"What do you mean? You love him yes?
"Of course but its been almost two years,"
"Come on (Name) he was gone for twenty years and I still got to see my brother again. I think you can be a little more patient." she said.
"I know." you were scared that you wasted these three years. "This is my choice I should accept it and live on for Alex's sake." you told your self.
"Now I have to get the birthday girl."
"And I have to get those two out of the library. That was a bit rough punishment I think.
"Would you do what I did?"
She thought for a moment.
"No. I would have done much worse."
You both giggled.
Evening
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEXANDRA!!"
Alex was having the time of her life. She had colorful banners, multiple lanterns, and kid games while the adults eat. The cake was normal sized because the adults had their own side of desserts.
Before she blew the candle she said "My only wish is to see my daddy!" she wished silently. Then she blew. Everyone clapped.
Even The children of Pat an Bart came to celebrate. All five kids were playing games or eating cake making them really hyper. Alex had a pretty Pink dress with ribbons in her hair which she hated because she has to worry about getting them dirty.
"Time to play hide and go seek!" Alex said. Every kid ran to hide She untied one of the ribbons to lossen it. It made her head hurt because it was too tight. It blew out her hand. She tried to catch it but tripped.
"Ow! Mama!" she said tears about to fall.
"Come now little bella. Your face is far too beautiful to have tears on it." a smooth voice said. A man in the assassin's outfit. He kneeled down to give the girl her ribbon and pulled her up on her feet.
The girl stared at the handsome man with a scar on his lip in front of her. She knew him but how?
She remembered Maria showing her an old portrait of the family including Ezio's brothers and family. She described each person but stopped every other time to stop herself from crying.
Maria pointed and said "This young man's name is Ezio with a scar on his lip. He is your-"
"Papa!"
"Huh?"
"Papa! I Found you!!!" Alex hugged the man.
Man was of course stunned that she would call him that.
"Let's get you to your mother little one." he said. Alex pulled the man towards the adults.
"Alex? Its time for presents! Where are you?" you called for her. "What if someone took her? What if she's lost."
"Calm down (Name). Keep looking before you send a search party." you thought.
Every minute you didn't find her your heartbeat was increasing.
"Alex!" you yelled.
"Mama!" she called to you. She was running towards you.
"I found Daddy!" she said hugging you.
"Wait? What?" you said.
"He's right here!" she said pointed to a man cloaked in white.
"Is it really....?" you thought.
A tall man walked towards you. When he took off his hood you saw......
A 17 year old kid. There was a barley visible scar on his lip.
"Ah...I see. I'm so sorry young man. Thank you for finding her." You said to him.
"Your very welcome Madonna." he said walking away.
You sighed as you turned to Alex.
"Daddy?" she said saddly as the teenager walked away.
"Alex.....sweetheart I know you want to see your father, but you can't just point to any man and think that they're your daddy." you said.
"But I thought it was him." she said with tears in her eyes.
"Oh come here." you said picking her up and kissed her cheek and let her head lean on your chest. You both returned to the party.
Later on Leo and Ezio were on their way to the party.
Leo had a sneaky grin on him. He wanted the fact that Ezio's a father a surprise. Ezio of course was unsure that he should go. He thought it would go the same awful way that he tried to surprise Cristina. His nightmares didn't help either. He didn't want another love in his life angry at him.
"Leonardo. I know that you mean well but I think I should just go back to the hideout." Ezio said nervously scratching his head.
"Is the infamous lady lover nervous?" he teased poking him in the chest. Ezio growled and Leo stopped.
"I have reason to be. I would not be happy if she left for years after constantly telling me she would return but never does." he said.
"I agree. Expect some reckoning from (Name) but I think she will be happy your home." Leo said. "And a little girl too."
"You said something?"
"No."
The party was about over and some of the guests were leaving. Some recruits helped clean up.
You help pack up the toys she got while Alex ran up to you.
"Mommy?"
"Yes?"
"Can we play a little more before I go to bed?
You thought about it, and thought that it wouldn't hurt for another game for the birthday girl.
"Ok. What do you want to play?"
"Catch!"
"Catch? Are you sure?"
"Uh huh!"
"Alright go get your ball."
She ran to get the ball from the table. You positioned yourself to play.
"Got it!"
"Ok. Throw the ball honey!"
"Here....we....go!" Alex said throwing the ball as hard as she could over your head. You tried to catch it but failed.
"I'll get it mommy!" running to get the ball.
"Alex! Wait!"
"Now, I can look my daddy!" The little girl said running off.
Alex ran into town fighting the crowd with you hot on the trail. She tried to look at all the men and tried to match them with her memory of Ezio's face.
"Mommy's fast! I have to go faster to find daddy!" she said running.
"Alex get back here now!!" You yelled seeing her. You ran after her with all your might.
Alex got so scared of you yelling that she tripped and her ball escaped her fingers.
"My Ball!" she screamed.
The ball bumped into a boot. The boot's owner got the ball and went to Alex.
"Are you alright little one?" he said to her at eye level.
She looked at him and gasped. The face. His eyes. the scar on his lip! That has to be.....
"DADDY!" she scream hugging the man. The man froze as she hugged him.
"Daddy?" he said.
You caught up then sighed that she's doing this again.
"Not again! Excuse me. I apologize for-" You froze looking at the man before you.
"Oh my God." you said dropping to your knees.
"Its him mommy!"
"(Name)? Wait, Daddy?"
Leo came from behind and smiled.
"Ezio Auditore meet Alexandria (Middle name) Auditore." Leo introduced Alex.
"Ezio..." you sobbed. Tears blinded your vision so you wiped your eyes.
"Don't cry mommy! Daddy's home now!" Alex said.
"Alex why don't let mommy and daddy talk for a minute?" Leo said.
"No! I wanna stay with daddy!" she said.
You tried to compose yourself for Alex.
"Its ok sweetheart. We'll be right behind you. He's not going anywhere right?" you said eyeing him.
"Uh...." he said still in shock of everything.
"Is daddy sleeping with his eyes open?" Alex asked.
"Uh...Yes! He is! Let's go while your mother wakes him up. I'll take you home." Leo said.
"But-"
You gave the glare again.
"ok." she said defeated as Leo carried her back to the hideout.
An awkward silence filled you both despite the villagers passing by.
"Well? Say something!" You said.
"I....I...."
"And before you asked yes that's our daughter. That night in the inn....never mind! I wanted her to get to know you for at least her first year! I understand that you need to kill Cesare but did you have to go for so long!?" you yelled about to cry again.
Ezio said nothing unable to look at you. You walked up to him to slap him on the face.
"Don't you have anything to say for your self!" you shouted.
You immediately regretted slapping him as he stared at you with tears.
"I tried....Honestly. I wanted nothing more than to be with you.....I'm sorry. I'm so sorry......." he looked like a a helpless child. You hugged him.
"No, I'm sorry Ezio. I know you were trying to do what was right but I....I missed you so much! I only got three letters and I thought you were..."
Ezio then grabbed you and kissed you long and hard. Your tears still fell but you return the affection. You didn't know how long you both were in that position after you stopped it didn't seem like enough.
"(Name)! My beloved Wife I missed you so much I ached to see you everyday." he said holding you. Not letting you go for a second.
"I was so scared Ezio!" you sobbed.
"No more tears (Name) I killed the bastardo. I will not leave your side ever again." he said kissing you. You dreamed of this for so long. You were scared that this was another dream only to wake up alone but another fear crawled into you in that moment.
"But I might." you said.
"What?"
"MOM DAD!!"
It was Alex!!
"ALEX!" You said as you both charged to the direction that she screamed.
You both found Leo and Alex were cornered by 3 brown hooded men in a alley.
"By Order of Ceasare you both shall die!" A man said.
"Uncle....Leo...I'm scared." Alex said paralyzed with fear, shaking.
"Stay behind me Alex." Said Leo trying to protect her.
"My Baby!!" you thought.
You didn't think you just gabbed your hidden knife you always carried under your dress and charged for the men.
"GET AWAY FROM HER!!" You Yelled.
You grabbed a hooded man from behind. You aim your knife ready to kill him.
Ezio simply lifted his arm and whistle like a bird and in a instant the men were dead.
"I got here just in time! Damn you Ceasare trying to take my child!" he said running towards the others.
"Alex! Are you alright?!" you said in a panic manner. You checked her head to toe. Physically she was fine but mentally you didn't know. She was shaking and was terrified. She didn't speak but her eyes shouted fear.
"Those men chased after us into this alley after we left." Leo said.
You hugged her tight. You all thought it was best to head back. Alex eventually calmed down in your arms.
"Mommy..."
"Yes honey?"
"Why didn't you tell me that Daddy was a wizard?"
"A Wizard?"
"He raised his hand and made those men go to sleep. He used magic!" she said in awe. You both decided not to correct her.
"Daddy?"
"Yes love?"
"Um...Can you carry me?" she blushed not looking at Ezio.
"Of course love" he said with a sweet smile.
"Oh. So you want him to carry you from now on?" you faked a hurt voice.
"Yes! You always carry me no daddy can do it." she said reaching for him.
You both smiled as he carried her back.
At the hideout everyone was worried about you and Alex but you told them you went for a walk. Ezio said hi to everyone and went with you and Alex.
Alex talked Ezio ear off of what happened ever since her first breath. You smiled at the sight. You truly had the family you longed for with Ezio. Another thought popped in your mind. The men that came. You said ever since you were here that you never wanted to kill,but then you didn't care if you did as long as Alex was safe. You were stunned that you would do such a thing.
"I think our little birthday girl is sleepy." Ezio said holding a tired 2 year old.
"I loved my birth...day....I....got...my...wish..." Her eyes closed. He kissed her head.
"Mia principessa" he said.
You both put her to bed and made sure she was ok. You kissed her and said "Good night Alex." She smiled.
You closed the door.
You both went to Ezio's or now both of your room.
"I have a little girl. I'm.... a father!" he said.
"Shh! She's sleeping!" you said quietly.
"Sorry. I never been so happy. I'm married and now I'm a father I'm just so-"
"I was proposed to but I don't remember getting married good sir." you said.
He smiled as he was on one knee taking out his small humble ring.
You gasped holding your hand to your mouth.
"Its all I can afford but maybe later I can get a diamond-
"Its perfect!" you knocked him down hugging him. While you both were on the ground he slipped the ring on your finger.
"A promise is a promise." he said kissing your hand with the ring on it. He picked you up and placed you on the bed.
"Ezio I...Need to tell you something." you said holding his hand.
"What is it beloved?"
"I.....I saw Minerva again when I was pregnant with Alex."
"What happen?" he said in a serious tone.
"She said Making Alex was my purpose here. She also gave me a choice. To leave or stay with you only for 3 years." you said.
"I see. No wonder You were so angry with me leaving." he said.
"Now we just got a year."you said sad. You felt Ezio wrap his arms around you.
"Whether its a year,an hour or a minute I want to spend it with you and our daughter. I love you (Name)." he said kissing you.
You caressed his cheek "I love you too." you said.
Months later.....
You and Ezio stepped down from being the leader of the Brotherhood but would help if it was necessary. Mac took over most of the Brotherhood. They adjusted without the both of you.
You both had a small wedding. You didn't want anything big but you loved your (Fav color) wedding dress. Ezio was of course a handsome groom and everyone you knew here came to congratulate you. You had a outside wedding with close friends. You smiled as you looked at your husband and child with a smile.
"A beautiful day for a new life."
The year slowly went by as you Ezio and Alex were together. Ezio was a joy with Alex. He played with her with every chance he got he got a temporary job as a wine seller with his grapevine you help maintain the shop. The house was on the countryside of Rome. Maria and Claudia came often. You visited Leo as often as you could. Alex had her lessons while you worked with Ezio.
One night you read a bedtime story to Alex about a prince and his princess.
"Mom! Will I find someone like a prince to marry like this Princess did?" Alex said pointing to the book.
"Absolutely not!!" Ezio said coming into the room.
"Oh boy. I can't wait to see you when she get's older and interested in boys." you said.
Ezio chuckled and sat on the bed as you continued to read to her. She fell asleep, You decided to stay with her tonight. Ezio slept with you and Alex all in that tiny bed.
"My family." You couldn't imagine being so happy.
You smiled as you reached out to touch them both as they slept but your hand slips through them like a ghost.
"What?" you looked to see your self fading!
"No! Not now!!" You said but no one heard.
You felt yourself float away from the room as they both fade into darkness
"EZIO ALEX!!!" you screamed but no one heard. Everything faded to black again.
"NO!!" you said in tears. You were so happy that you didn't realize the year was up.
"Give me more time please! LET ME SAY GOODBYE!!" you begged.
"Your journey is done! Now Return to where you came." Minerva said.
You woke up in the living room. The tv still had that loading screen on it from the game.
"I'm home?" you thought. After being away for so long.
"(name) I told you to go to bed! Its too late for you to play games!" Your mom said.
"Mom? MOMMA!" you said running to hug her.
You mom looked at you confused.
"Mamma mi sei mancato così tanto!" you said
"Are you alright honey? Why are you talking like that?"
"Wait. I better remember this isn't Italy" You thought.
"Weren't you.....worried......about me while.......I..... was gone?"
"Gone? You were out cold for an hour. Now cut off that game and get ready for bed!" your mom said walking away.
"Are you serious? I was worried sick about my family and I never left this room the whole time!?!" you grumbled. You did as you were told. You took in the scene around you. Kitchen, the bathroom, showers,modern tec, you were back in the 21 century. Why does this feel strange?
It took you a while to remember what was what. You felt so out of place now. The room you had felt odd now. All the things you had and nostalgia was nice but felt different. You went to a new world and learned things so coming back to this was weird. The shower was great. It helped you relax. You still felt conflicted about Your family in Rome. What were they doing? Do they remember you? Are they alive?
"Where Do I belong?" you asked as you tried to go to sleep.
The next morning you were in the kitchen. You forgot how easy everything was in this time period. You felt almost cheated that you didn't do things the old fashion way because you felt like you earned it.
You were so out of it that you didn't notice a young man was at the door talking to your father about a job for you.
"(name) Get dressed there some man asking for you." your dad said.
"oh...ok" you said slowly going to your room. You saw shirts and pants in the dresser.
"Huh. I kind of miss pants."you said putting on (fav shirt) (fav pants).
You came the living room to the young man waiting for you.
"Hello (full name). My name is Eric." he said shaking your hand.
"Hello." you said.
"The reason I came today is to offer you a job." he said.
"I see."
Your dad watched you both.
"I'll show you on my phone what we do." he said showing his phone
It had the assassin's symbol on the screen.
You looked at him stunned and he winked.
"I...I see. I'm very interested in this job." you said.
After you both talked Eric explained to your parents a cover story of what you will be doing. They were more than happy with the position and they approved of you working for them.
The next day you were invited to the "Company" for a tour. It looked like a Computer creation factory on the outside but Eric showed you around the modern assassin's hideout that was under the huge factory. The top was normal then he went tp a elevator punched in a code. A second hidden elevator opened from the side. You were amazed by the hideout. Advance tec everywhere and testing weapons.
"We heard alot about you through Ezio memories and letters." Eric said showing you the archives.
"Letters?" you asked.
"Yes. Both Ezio and Alex had personal letters for you. That's how we knew where you lived." he said stopping at a preserved box. He opened it with thousands of letters.
"So many! What us gon do?!" you said.
"Pardon?"
"I mean is there more?"
He nodded.
"An here's one gift the famous Leonardo." he said. Lastly he showed a medieval portrait of you and your family together. You remembered the day You convinced Ezio to make one. You were almost in tears as you reached out and touch it. All of you were in a regal like attire. Ezio looked calm and collected standing behind you and you looked the same sitting in a chair but you loved how Alex couldn't help but smile.
"My family." you cried.
He showed you another on with only Alex and her family.
"Alexandria (middle name) Auditore. The first female leader of the brotherhood! She was a brave and noble soul. Lead Rome to a time of peace. married but husband died of illness. Three children. All boys."
"That's my girl." you said so proud of your little girl.
"When do you want to start?" Eric asked.
You looked at your mark on your hand the La Vope gave you.
"As soon as possible!" you said.
"Great I'll tell the boss wait here." Eric ran off
You looked at the letters and picked one out from Alex.
"From Alex age 16." you read.
"Dear mother,
I know your still watching me but I miss you. Especially now. I been having strange feelings lately over a boy. Its like butterflies in my stomach when ever he's around. We always trained together and we don't talk that much but lately I have been seeing him in a different way. I was wondering you felt like this for father. Of course I can't ask father about this because he scares of any men who look my way. He's impossible to talk to about boys. Even talking to you like this helps then argue with father about courting. I love you mother.
From your daughter,
Alexandria
Then you lifted a letter from Ezio.
"Dear (name),
I can not lie beloved. It has been hard for me to go on without you. Each day I could barley get out of bed. The only thing that makes me move is the face of our beautiful little girl. I must be honest it was hard to look at her and be sadden by the fact that it wasn't you. As time went by I figured out I was truly blessed. What I thought was a painful reminder was really a wonderful gift that apart of you will always be here with me. It had may have been one year together but I would not trade it for the world. But I fear for my daughter beloved. Once she becomes curious of BOYS I fear I will kill any who would try to come near her. I unfortunately knew what boys were doing at a certain age! No one will touch my little girl.
From your loving husband,
Ezio.
You cried holding the letters to yourself.
"What are we gonna do with them huh?" you said rubbing your belly.
"Miss (Name)? The boss would like a word." Eric said.
You nodded walking with him. You touch your belly again and thought to yourself that your next child if it doesn't want to join the brotherhood you be ok with that.
The legacy continues either way.
"I'm an assassin, I'm a solder. I'm also a wife and a mother! I am (Full name)!"
