A bright light blinded his vision followed by the sounds of birds chirping throughout his ears, making him jolt upwards to find he's not dead. He glanced around his surroundings, unfamiliar to its contents. A dark, sickly forest was sitting right in front of him, daring him to explore its dreadful boundaries. He shifted his head behind him to see the ghostly portal, floating there. Grunting, he sat up to face the portal but before he could do that, he felt something jab between his gut making him kneel down in pain.

He looked at the source of the pain to find out that a small wound was there, blood gashing out from it. He hear something approaching him fast as the sound of yelling could be heard from behind him. He reacted swiftly as he glanced to to find out the Templars rushed out of the portal.

One of the Templars dashed to him, armed with a nightstick. Countering his attack, the young assassin grabbed a hold of the nightstick as he wrapped his arm around his arm before hitting it a couple of times. The Templar fell to the ground dazed from the attack as Robert digged his hidden blade into the Templar's neck, coating the grass with his blood.

Two more Templars charged at him but before they could strike, he dodged them as they fell to the ground. They immediately gained their balance as one of them tried to again attack but was interrupted by the assassin's blade digging into chin. The Templar tried to make the bleeding stop but with no effort as he fell to the ground gagging on his own blood.

The other one pulled out a long blade as he charged at him, full of hatred for killing his fellow agents. But before he could strike, he was toppled over by the young assassin as he drove his hidden blade into his chest, making him grunt in pain before dying a slow painful death.

The young assassin glanced around, the blood that he spilled on this unmarked land. This land that was clean from any conflict, now stained with Templar blood by one simple assassin. He is the only human being that remained on this unknown land, this unknown planet. He killed the only human beings but only because they were trying to kill him, he has no grudge against these men but they had intended to kill him so he only prevented his untimely death.

He took one last look at the scene before departing from this bloodbath that he created. Usually this would bother the other recruits but when his mentor showed him the true ways of the assassin's, it changed him, it turned him into a true assassin that he was wanting to be. It taught him, that nothing is true, do not believe anything that anyone says. It also taught him to work in the dark to serve the light, the darkness is your true friend, it will serve you well. And It also taught him to strike swiftly and quietly, do not reveal your true self to anyone at all cost.
