I stand beside Haytham as we both watch Connor walk towards all the destroyed crates, well... what is left of the crates, he leans down to take a closer look before getting up and turning towards us.
"There were rations inside the crates. Medical supplies and clothing as well," Connor announces before gesturing us to follow him, we walk up the snow covered path, walking past some other destroyed crates.
We walk for a few minutes until Connor suddenly stops, obviously finding another clue which looks like tracks to me, what you could see, all the snow that had fallen had covered the once revealing tracks.
Even though I could see the tracks now, there is no way I would be able to follow them but thankfully Connor could and he told us that there were tracks, clarrifying that I was seeing them. Haytham and I follow Connor up the road.
Until we get to the midpoint of the pathway, I look down the road to see carriage which is stuck in the snow, possibly with a broken wheel due to how thick the snow is. I look up at Haytham to see he wasn't looking.
I stand next to Connor, "I think that's one of Church's men," I whisper so Haytham wouldn't hear, I needed to act like I despised him. Ever since I was a youngster, I would basically get told off for being kind towards an Assassin but I just can't help it, I can't see anything wrong with Assassin's but everyone else who is involved with the Templars doesn't see it my way.
Connor nods and walked towards the man who is crouched down by the wheel. "Just my luck... Going to freeze to death if I don't get this fixed..." I hear the man say to himself as we sneak up behind him as he paces by the carriage.
"Are you Ben Church's man?" Connor asks, with such a calm and polite tone which caused me to smile. Even though he acted innocent, Connor still scared. I watch as the man turns to look at Connor with a nervous expression before he hurried off up the snow path.
I chuckle at the man, it's kind of weird that I see this man who are scary to other, a kind and gentle man... towards me anyway. Connor turns to look over his shoulder, looking at Haytham and I with an annoyed look on his face which I knew he was trying to hide.
"Well played," Haytham says to him before Connor takes off running, chasing after to bloke. I knew Connor was fast but not that fast, it took him less than a minute to catch up to him. By the time Haytham and I got to the area he had gone to, Connor had the man pinned against a tree.
"It was not wise to run," Connor say to the man, who was breathing a bit heavily showing that he is scared of Connor, "W-what do you want?" The man stutters as he looks behind Connor to look at Haytham, then me.
"Where is Benjamin Church?" Connor questions and the man answers almost instantly and did not stutter this time around, hoping that his 'confession' would allow him to walk a free man. "I don't know! We was riding for a camp just north of here," The man starts to say as Haytham walks away to stand near the man.
I shake my head as he clenches his gun in his hand but not bringing it out into view, "It's where we normally unload the cargo. Maybe you'll find him th-," The man was cut off from what he was telling Connor by a bullet hitting him straight in the temple.
Connor quickly drops him and moves away, sort of shocked that his father had done this. Connor walks towards me, I look up at him in worry, wondering if he is alright and he proves he is once he snaps at his father.
"You did not have to kill him," Connor walks away from me and towards his father, I stay back refusing to get involved whilst the two men basically argued over the man's death. "Let's not waste time with all this pointless banter. You two," Haytham says pointing to me and then Connor before ordering us to go catch up with Church's men.
"What about you?" Connor asks. I stop from walking up the hill once I heard Connor's question, I've noticed he really likes to ask questions but I sort of understand why. "Never you mind. Just do as I ask," Haytham tells him before walking off.
I look at Connor as he carries on staring at Haytham, properly glaring at him. I walk down towards him before lightly grabbing his biceps, making him turn to me. "Come on, let's go. The faster we find him, the faster we can find the rations," I say to him with a smile.
Connor walks beside me as we walk up the hill, I'm surprised that Haytham actually allowed me with Connor, he doesn't really like to get involved things now. That might be way that he brought me to find Church but I don't care, I'm just glad I can actually spend a bit of time with Connor, even though I know it is wrong.
