Winter-1760
A woman was stumbling through the snow; she was covered in blood as she grasped a small child in her arms. Tears were striking her cheeks as she pushed herself to move faster, she could hear the red coats behind her. The woman looked back and saw the horse's getting closer to her, she ignored the burning pain in her legs then he hid behind a tree. The Women placed her child on the snow and kneeled in front of her child. "My dear you must run…run and don't look back….I love you Brooke…never forget that."
The young girl looked up at her mother threw the white hood and shook her head. "No Mama…I'm not I'm not"
The woman gritted her teeth the pushed her daughter gently down the hill then watched her tumbled lightly down it, She shook her head then went off running in a different direction but was soon stopped by horses surrounding her. The woman glared up at the man upon the horse. "Haytham Kenway…"she spat his name out. "How could you go against the brotherhood…to become a Templar …you may have killed my husband, but my daughter will come back…she will become an assassin and ki-" Charles Lee wiped the blood off his blade as the woman body fell to the ground, her blood started to saturate the snow as Charles looked up at Haytham. "I am sorry about that but this woman wore my patience thin…but what of the child sir…?"
Haytham pulled on his horses rein shaking his head. "That child will die…she will not last in is cold...let's be off."
Charles nodded and got back onto his horse and looked down at the dead assassins body then rode off with the rest of the Templars.
The young girl shook the snow off her body, she heard the men's voice's fade .She whimpered lightly knowing she won't forget the men the killed her father and chased after herself and her mother. A small gasp left her lip's that started to turn blue. "Mommy!" She made her way to the hill where her mother pushed her. She squinted her eyes hoping she would find her mother but it was started to get dark. The young girl walked slightly further until she saw a figure in the snow. She ran over to the figure but tripped from her long wool jacket.
"Mama!...Mama…." she came up to her mother's body. "Mama" She placed her small hands on her mother's back and shook her." Wake up Mama…wakeup pleas..!" she started to cry more as she curled against her mother. She shivered as it started to get dark and a cold wind started to blow, the little girl's eyes started to blur, she then saw a snowy figure of a wolf walk to her until she passed out.
-Morning- 1760
Ratonhnhaké:ton saw his friends standing at the entrance of the hut. "Hey Ratonhnhaké:ton…lets go play." Kanen'tó:kon said laughing lightly.
Ratonhnhaké:ton nodded and grabbed his warm furs ,wrapping it around his body and followed his friends. Kaniehti:io saw her son leave with the other children.
"Be careful Ratonhnhaké:ton….dont stay to long in the cold." she shouted to him as he left.
Ratonhnhaké:ton trudged threw the snow and looked behind him as his friends trailed behind him. Kanen'tó:kon panted for a moment as he placed his hands on his knees, he glanced up at his friend and a worried look crossed his face. "Ratonhnhaké:ton we are not allowed to leave this area!." Ratonhnhaké:ton waved his hand back at him then continued on, he finally made it to the top of a hill and noticed a small movement in the snow, he quickly removed the small knife from his belt and slowly walked to the lump.
Ratonhnhaké:ton was about to plunged the knife down until he noticed the blood, he quickly looked around thinking it was another's kill. He then dusted the snow off, what he suspected to be a carcass of an animal was in fact a young girl wrapped in a wool coat. He looked closer to see she was clutched on to the body of a woman. Ratonhnhaké:ton shook his head then placed his hand on the girls cheek and found that she was cold to the touch. He was about to stand up but yelped as a cold hand grabbed his wrist, he looked down into wide blue eyes of the young girl and found that she was still alive.
Ratonhnhaké:ton knew that if she was alive now she might not live any longer . "Shh I will help you..I will take you to my village ." The young girl looked up at him in confusion but she then went limp again. He picked the girl in his arms then took one more glance at the dead woman, he started to make his way down the hill as Kanen'tó:kon groaned as he was almost up the hill as he saw his friend come down.
"Ratonhnhaké:ton!" Kanen'tó:kon was about to complain until he saw the girl in his arms, from what he saw she was not one of his people, she looked to be like the light skinned people.
Kanen'tó:kon didn't know why his friend was carry her but his self and the other's decided to follow him back.
Ratonhnhaké:ton walked back into his village and quickly made it to where his mother was. "Mother!...help."! He saw his mother make her way over to him as he placed her onto the ground. He frowned then played with his hands. " What do we do mother….her mother is dead!" He looked down then nodded as his mother told him to get the medicine man, he took one glance of the young girl then ran off.
Kaniehti:io watched her son leave then walked over to where the child laid on the animal's fur. She took the wool off of her body and saw that she appeared to be around her son's age. Kaniehti:io also noticed that there was a small insignia burned onto her finger, she picked the girls small hand up to take a closer look at the mark. Not knowing what it was she placed her hand back down and put blankets over her to warm her body up, Kaniehti:io then smoothed the young girls blonde hair as she waited to the medicine man to come in.
It took a week for the young girl to recover and it wasn't long until Kaniehti:io took her in to raise her and now three months later the young girl was settled in, she was slowly starting to learn their speech. Kaniehti:io got close to the new girl as she stated her name was Brooke Williams and she hailed from Boston Massachusetts. When she asked why they were running and why she was in New York ,Brooke said bad men were chasing them, Brooke then replied that those men killed her father in front of her. Kaniehti:io dropped the topic after that.
Kaniehti:io walked out of the hut and saw Brooke trail behind her son, she smiled lightly then frowned for a moment. As she watched Ratonhnhaké:ton, Brooke , and Kanen'tó:kon interact with each other. Kaniehti:io then let her gaze focus on her son. "My greatest fear is that one day I shall look into the face of my son and see the same dark hunger."
