Assassin's Creed: Secrets

Chapter 6

I felt my body get picked up but I couldn't move or see since I was tired from losing too much blood I could feel my robe lightly sticking to my shoulder and chest where my blood was leaking.

Soon though I slipped into unconsciousness. The dream was strange and yet was very familiar. I had had the dream ever since I was a little girl though then and now I still don't understand it.

I would hear a soft voice in my ear telling me to stay strong and that she would always be with me. Though she called me by a name that wasn't mine, Altaïr. I recognized the name as an ancient assassin I had heard about why would she call me that?

"Lilliana...." I heard a comfortingly familiar male whisper softly in my ear.

"Lilliana, mi amour it's time to wake up..." I heard him continue before he gently kissed my forehead. I slowly opened my eyes squinting a bit trying to adjust to the lighting. I smiled lightly seeing Arno smiling down at me before he pecked my lips.

"Welcome back mi amour. If your feeling better the head assassin's want to speak with you." He said softly helping me sit up. I noticed I was wearing a new assassins robe and was bandaged up.

I slowly got up whining lightly as a stab of pain ran through my entire body coming from the bandaged wound in my shoulder. Arno flinched a bit to support me just invade I fell over.

"Don't push yourself too hard. I know you think your really tough but everyone has their limits. So I'll help" Arno said with a smile before carefully picking me up bridal style and began to carry me out of the building. Which I figured was not the assassin's hideout but it was rather the town doctors home.

When we walked out the doctor said goodbye and for me to take it easy before we left heading wherever the hideout was. "What were you dreaming of mi amour?" He asked looking down at me for a moment as he continued to walk.

"Oh I guess it's just a memory from when I was young. I don't remember much of anything about it and I don't know what it means. All I can tell from it is that there is a woman who always talks to me and toward the end the sound of guards yelling at her makes me feel sad...and I don't know why...I don't even know her I don't think..." I said softly lightly laying my head in Arno's neck closing my eyes.

"Maybe we'll figure it out one day but for now just rest and we will be back at the hideout in no time." He said kissing my forehead and I lightly felt the prickles of his very short beard lightly rub my soft skin.

I nodded a bit before acting like I was sleeping in his arms. I didn't want to sleep cause I didn't want to have the dream again. It always made me sad and frustrated and I really don't need something like that on my mind. I have more important things to worry about...right?
