1) We were on the move to the home of the only friend to the brotherhood. I knocked on the door a woman opened and greeted us with hospitality. As we walked in we removed our hoods and cloth masks and she closed the door behind us. "My name is Bemia and you are?". We each gave our names as she directed us to the table. "Bemia was the husband of a master assassin in Alexandria but after his death we relocated her to a safe place" Malum said to me. "I know why your here, and you can use my home for a base for the new brotherhood" Bemia said with such enthusiasm."

2) she left us in the home as she went to the market to gather supplies for the recruitment processes once our assignment was over. We waited a few hours till It became dusk. "it's close to the shift change. remember, don't hurt the city guards unless you truly must" Aden said to us. we exited the home and ran to the temple where William was located at. we climbed the building next to it and scouted the area for guards. "there's only 10 city guards and the rest are templars" Malum said as he crouched with his crossbow drawn.

3) never the less we proceeded to quietly knock out the guards around the temple, but nothing ever goes to plan. the last guard saw me running at him and of course he yelled. I had no choice, he was to far to silence so I threw a blade at his neck. I did what needed to be done to bad I wasn't quiet enough. as expected everyone knew we were there. so we surrounded the place, I took the right entrance while Aden took the main entrance and Meren to the left entrance while Malum was on a building adjacent to the temple.

4) Malum kept shooting cross bolts and nailing every one he aimed at. I drew my sword and blocked a strike the grabbed my dagger and ran him threw. I kicked down the long wooden seats that made up the temple as the showered the area with arrows. "apparently they have archers" Aden yelled with enjoyment. He liked a challenge. "do you honestly believe you can kill me, I knew you were coming, who do you think sent the ship's to stop you." William yelled. "You didn't do a good job since we're here" Meren laughed with confidence.

5) I threw a smoke bomb in there general location as best I could seeing as how I was in cover. my back was against the wall and I had my sword in my right and my short blade in my left. I jumped over the long wooded seat and ran across the other seats till I got closer. Aden was throwing every knife he had to get me and Meren closer. Malum joined in the fight jumping threw the plate glass window that was above the front entrance landing behind Aden while shooting at the enemy.

6) there were so many Templars. " there is no way a ignorant group of assassins can even dream of killing me" he mocked. I peaked over cover and threw a blade at him, he dogged, but I took an arrow in my right shoulder. Aden and Malum were stuck behind cover while Meren was slowly moving towards them chopping down Templars guards with his axe. I Needed to think. I broke the arrow lodged in my shoulder and pushed the wooded seats forward. the cover was helpfull but I still needed to kill William and his guards.

7) Malum slid his crossbow and bundle of cross bolts to Aden and told him to cover me while he tied his smoke bombs to his throwing blades. Malum threw the makeshift weapon at the ones with the bows and blinded them with a cloud of smoke. we pushed foward and we were dropping them one by one. I could see the look on Williams face. he was disgusted and walked to the exit as if nothing was happening. "Follow him then kill him" Aden yelled at me, I ran.
