►Assassins creed imagines book two

►Arno imagine #2

summary: a blind assassin is always questioned about their skill but always shows who's best. After a young Arno is put in his place, he grows attached to his mentor.

On the streets of Paris everyone would look at me and thing I'm a poor blind begger. They were right about one thing.

Two years ago they would of just seen me as a begger, but behind the disguise I was making my way to my next kill. No one would suspect that a poor, innocent girl that was roaming the streets of Paris would actually reveal themselves as an assassin by assassinating her target with a hidden blade up her sleeve.

I was born with some type of a disease that the doctors couldn't identify but from this disease I have lived with poor vision for all of my life. At first it was a burden as I would always find myself walking into buildings, boxes, tables, chairs and people, whom didn't react well most of the time. But the next minute I'm a master assassin for the brotherhood. I was not the only one who was surprised by the outcome, many of the other assassins, including myself, were waiting for the day where I would be sent away as thanks to my poor vision I occasionally identified the wrong target.

Now I practically rule over the novices.

However my glory didn't last long. A year after becoming a master assassin I woke up one day and I couldn't see anything. I thought the rest of my life was over. I had gone completely blind and I thought I couldn't carry on doing what I loved most. I worried from the thought that I would get thrown out of the brotherhood then left to die on the streets. However I proved myself wrong again.

Rather than go on missions and assassinate targets I trained the new recruits that came along. Upon seeing that their mentor couldn't even see what they looked like of course they had their doubts, but I easily put them in their place. In the end I trained my recruits to be the best that they can, I really am I master.

Currently I stood outside one of the secret entrances to the brotherhood by the river. Before I went blind I got used to my surroundings round the brotherhood very well, so even though I no longer have my vision I could walk around freely. As I overlooked where the river was I remembered how the water would flow from under the bridge and down stream, and the way it sparkled on a summers day.

Out here it was quiet.

A little too quiet.

Behind me I could feel fingers hovering towards me, from force of habit, I turned my body slightly hopefully grabbing an arm. As I felt the limb, I tightly grasped onto it and flipped whoever I held onto over my shoulder to land flat on their back in front of me.

"I forgot you could do that, mom ami."

I let out a small sigh upon hearing the familiar voice below me.

"Hello Arno." I greeted the assassin."Trying to cause trouble again?"

Even without my vision I knew he had that smug grin on his face, looking up at me. I heard the sound of small stones crunching from underneath his feet as he stood up.

After all my time of training new recruits to the brotherhood Arno has been on of the more challenging ones. Originally he was Bellec's responsibility but whenever he went off on missions he dumped Arno on me to work with him for the day, despite already being busy with other recruits. Fun fact: out of all of the recruits I have trained, Arno was the first one to straight up question me on my abilities. Of course I didn't tolerate it.

In front of everyone I challenged him to show off his fighting skills. Arno, armed with a sword, took the first swing from behind. I, on the other hand, was not armed and easily dodged every attack he threw at me. He wasn't one to give up easily, after a couple more of failed attacks I disarmed Arno of his sword and flipped him to the ground with the blade of the sword resting delicately on his throat. Since then Arno's attitude changed miraculously and almost became a teachers pet.
