Chapter 22-Death is Only the Beginning

A/N: I swear you guys are gonna hate me after you read this chapter 😭😭

Listen to Ezio's Family (Cover) by Taylor Davis on replay for extra feels :))

You woke up, feeling your head being placed on something soft yet firm. You shot up, feeling your head as a few spots of blood stains stained your hand. You felt someone gasp loudly, you turn around, groaning in pain, looking into those familiar blue-green eyes.

"It's a miracle!" Evie exclaims hugging you but immediately lets go due to your groans of pain that emitted from your head.

"Bollocks my head... H-How long was I out?" You ask quietly, Evie getting up from where she was and helping you in the process.

"A good half hour. Jacob was lucky to find you, (Y/N)." She says, grabbing your hand and pulling you away from where you were. Familiarizing yourself with the surroundings, you realize you're right outside the vault. You quickly shimmy away from Evie's grip, holding onto your head once more.

"Evie, we need to go back. Jacob's in trouble! Starrick is using the shroud against us which means Jacob is in danger!" You yell, looking back at the vault, feeling Evie approach from behind, you look at her as she nods silently. You both run inside the vault, climbing the walls and jumping down onto the vault floor until you both see a clear view of Starrick but this time, he has Jacob in his arms which made Evie scream his name and calling Crawford a monster. Starrick looked over and snarled at the both of you as you both ran towards him. He threw Jacob on the ground, making the painful rays hit his body and throw him to the back of the vault.

You nodded at Evie, running to Jacob, you hold him up, cupping his face to check for any severe wounds. You help him up, looking back at Evie to find her being choked by Starrick. You ran towards her, avoiding the Shroud's rays from hitting you, you engaged your hidden blades, stabbing his back as he throws Evie towards the rays, making them hit her and throw her like a rag doll. You felt like everyone was all over the place, you didn't know who to aid first, with your head trapped in your thoughts, Starrick kicks your foot, making you trip and fall to the ground. He steps on your throat, choking you as best as he can until Jacob uses his kurkri knives on Crawford, making him stumble back but charge at Jacob.

He punched Jacob and took out his gun, aiming right at him but once he pulled the trigger, Jacob dodged the bullet. You caught your breathe quickly, not realizing the rays close to you, you tumble backwards, so far yet so close for the rays to hit you. He smacked Jacob, causing him to stumble back, Starrick taking advantage of it, he grabbed Jacob's collar and placed him on the stone table, choking him fiercely.

"Drop this right now! Do you know how many lives you've destroyed because of your ignorance. You don't hear us fighting, you don't hear us running, you don't hear us!" You scorned at Crawford, he threw Jacob down and was thrown across the battle arena, Starrick looked at you with such anger and madness that emerged within his black soul. He grabbed you, smacking you across the face as he tried kicking you but you engaged your blade, slicing his arm. Punching him, he grabbed your fist, picking you up by the collar and threw you in back him, causing you to land over the stone table.

You glanced up, seeing Jacob and Evie running towards him, fighting with him like there was no tomorrow. Jacob using his kukri knives and Evie using her cane sword, they stabbed him all around but since the shroud was healing him it was impossible to hurt him, but it did weaken him. Smacking both the Frye twins and kicking Evie's face, he grabbed both of their necks, lifting them up as you looked into their hopeless but fearless eyes.
