I was just about to leave the Guild and go back home, until the door opened open and Jacob came in panting for air. "You alright Jacob?" I asked him walking over to him.

"Arthur's in trouble." Jacob said still panting for air. What Arthur's in trouble?

"What how and how did you get in here?" I asked him concerned.

"I don't know I got word from Arthur that the Guild and the Brotherhood were gone no one was around. The whole place was empty and messed up with. And I followed people in." When Jacob said that I started to worry.

"I must return home by tomorrow." I told him.

"We'll leave immediately." Jacob told I nodded before grabbing my blades and placing against my amour. We both walked out of the room and started to walk down the hall we started to walk until we saw a door that leaded to the outside. We opened the door and James was facing us.

"Who is this?" James asked looking at Jacob, Jacob stood there with his eyes open wide.

"This is the captain that brought me here." I gestured to Jacob making James nod still confused why Jacob was here."

"I need to get back to London." I told James.

"Why?" James asked me.

"Arthur said that Liz and Sparrow are in trouble, so I need to go back." I told him. James was shocked when he heard his brothers name mentioned.

"Let me come with you." James said I shook my head and walked past him with Jacob following behind me.

"No you're staying here." I turned around to face James. "It's not safe for you to return especially now." I told him, I told him about the war between the Thieves' and Assassin's.

"I don't care I want to see London again and see my brother." James tried to persuade me. No I won't put his life at risk, what would Eleanor say if she found out about this.

"No your life is not worth the risk. Stay here and look after your family." I told him my final say. James just sighed.

"Jacob. Come on." Jacob nodded before walking towards the stables and getting on the horse that was close to him. I walked over to him and he helped me into the horse by pulling me up. I looked over to the door and saw James standing there looking at me, I smiled at him. He returned the smile, before Jacob kicked the horses side before the the horses left the Guild's hideout and we galloped towards the docks. I'm coming back Arthur.
