What will be there to greet me?

Octavia lay on the floor, her broken hidden blade in front of her. A Templar captain walked behind her and kicked her awake. Two more ponies hoisted her up on their backs and started hauling her away. Octavia had flashbacks of her journey here. Her ride on the boat, the walk through the desert, and when she found out that the Templars had gotten to Masyaf castle before her. She fought half an army. In a brief moment, she caught a glimpse of the great Luna. Octavia looked for a second too long, and she was defeated.

Octavia was dragged to an open room. The captain, Commander Crysalis, waited with an evil smile on her face. Octavia shook free and started walking to the edge of the tower by herself. As she passed the commander, she glanced at her with the same evil sneer. As Octavia neared the end of the platform, she noticed Luna was walking next to her. She stopped at the edge. She felt her hood being grabbed, and then pulled off. Commander Crysalis put a noose around Octavia's neck. She just stared in front of her, waiting for the signal. An eagle screeched. She felt the noose tighten, and she turned around. Octavia punched, pulled the noose off, wrapped it around Crysalis, and jumped. She fell and fell, finally landing on a platform down below. She looked up to see how far she fell. With that done, she stood up and hid her face with her hood once more. "it is very hard to see down here." Octavia said to herself. She shivered. "Well, at least my cloak is warm." As she checked out her surroundings, she her yelling from above. "I WANT HER DEAD! Find her, and KILL THE BASTARD!" Octavia paid no attention as she followed the "ghost" of Luna. She hopped up onto wooden beams until she got to stone wall. She ran up the wall and held onto the ledge. She noticed a guard keeping watch right in front of her. She reached out and grabbed his hind legs, and dragged him over the edge. She climbed up and laughed to herself. "God, I love doing that"

She continued following Luna up the castle. In the distance she heard, "Did you find her? No?! Well keep looking! Nopony leaves until the assassin is dead!" Octavia rolled her eyes as she continued climbing. She was having an easy time, but then she saw a large gap between her and the next wooden bar. She bit her lip and pushed her whole body forward. She grabbed onto the ledge, but lost her grip in one hoof due to the icy bar. As he hung on with one hoof, she looked down. She gasped and stumbled onto the top of the post. It looked like a bottomless pit due to the frosty air and mist. She shook away her fear and continued on. She got to the top of a tower and gave a relived sigh. She took a quick breather and brushed off her robes. She grinned as she noticed a small room that held her weapons. Octavia put on her left hidden blade and tested it. Everything was working. She did the same with her right. When it popped out, only a nub was left. She frowned as she sheathed her sword. "Get ready Templars, I'm coming."

She walked out of a door and saw about 4 Templars standing around on a tower. Octavia silently walked behind the one watching the stairs. She unsheathed her sword and walked right up to his back. She stood up on two legs and held the sword in her right front hoof. She quickly plunged the sword right through his back. The other three guards took notice. They ran over and drew their own swords. The guards appeared too scared to do anything, judging by the glances they were giving each other. Octavia made an annoyed face and swung at the first guard. He deflected it but Octavia kept swinging. Another guard took this opportunity to attack. Octavia turned and knocked the sword out of his hands and stabbed him through. She almost instantly turned around and sliced the other guard's neck. She then turned her focus to the two other shivering guards. She jumped and sliced a guards neck. He fell to his knees in front of Octavia. He looked up and stared into her eyes. He started silently crying. Octavia's face was expressionless. He slowly fell to the ground, all the while clutching his bleeding neck. When he fell motionless in front of her, she slowly turned to the other guard. To his surprise, she sheathed her blade. The guard could not move due to shear fear. Octavia jumped suddenly. The guard screamed. He opened eyes. "Huh?!!" the assassin could not be seen. He calmed his beating heart. "Thank the lord..." he whispered. Octavia fell from the sky and plunged her hidden blade into his heart. She stood up and shook the blood of of the blade and "sheathed" it. She walked towards another tower, leaving the bodies of four Templars in her wake.

Unforgiving

Octavia climbed to the top of another tower. She thought about the fight she had just been in. Almost right on cue, she heard the screaming voice of Commander Chrysalis. "What the HELL happened here?!" Octavia smirked as she kept climbing. She swore she saw Luna smirk as well. When she got to the top, she walked to the edge. She peered down and nodded. "I hate getting my robes wet." She pushed an eagle statue off the tower and jumped after it. She fell for a solid three seconds before the statue burst through the ground. She dove into the water that was below the surface of the earth.

Octavia groaned as she pulled herself out of the water. She was greeted by a shaking Templar with his sword drawn. He had an apple in his hand. The guard looked at the half eaten apple. Feeling nothing else would help his situation, he threw it at Octavia. Octavia lifted her hoof and caught the apple without breaking eye contact. "really? Come on, did you REALLY think that would do anything?" With that, she chucked the apple back at him. It hit him in the face. He yelped and covered his eyes with his hooves. He stumbled around and fell into the water. Octavia just stood and watched with a face that read, "wow... Really?" after the guard didn't resurface, Octavia remembered that Templars wore heavy armor. It probably weighed him down, and he drowned. She face hoofed and continued on her way.

She navigated the prison-like cave. She came to a hole in the wall. Making sure to keep quiet, she peered through the wall. There was a big room with four more Templars, and what appeared to be a civilian. They were in front of.. "is that..." Octavia sighed happily to herself. "The door to Luna's library!" she concluded that she'd have to take out the four guards silently. Octavia positioned herself over a Templar. She pounced. Time seemed to go in slo-mo as she landed on the guard with her hidden blade suddenly in his back. Octavia slowly walked up to another guard. She stabbed him in the back, but she forgot something. She didn't cover the guards mouth! The Templar screamed, as the last two guards came over. Octavia mentally kicked herself, but ran and swung her hidden blade at a guard with a spear. He tried deflecting it, but to no avail. Octavia closed her eyes, and everything turned into a blur. She sliced the spear in half. While "sheathing" the blade, she grabbed both ends of the spear. She thrust the sharp end into the Templar standing next to her. She spun and threw the other half across the chamber, and into another guards chest.

Octavia stood up and opened her eyes. She turned towards the civilian as he cheered. "that was amazing! Thank you so much ma'am!" Octavia nodded. "your welcome. Did you find this?" she asked. "yes ma'am. It took me a year to find this chamber. I have been trying to get through for over 3 months!" the stallion looked down. "I wish I knew what was behind it." Octavia looked at the door before returning her gaze back towards the man. "There are artifacts worth more than all the gold in the world in there. I hope to get in as well." The stallion brightened. "maybe the book the guy has will help you!" Octavia looked confused. "What guy? What book?" the stallion got angry. "The ugly captain. He carries it around wherever he goes." Octavia threw the stallion a bag of coins. "Go home and work for honest men." the stallion caught the bag, but turned sad. "I would love to ma'am. But those ponies will murder me if I try." Octavia looked towards a door, then back to the stallion. "Pack your tools."

The Run

Octavia opened the door. She was in the main entrance of Masyaf Castle. As she walked through the entrance, she heard Commander Crysalis yelling. "Stay here and guard the gate. NO ONE LEAVES UNTIL THE ASSASSIN IS DEAD!!" With that, she turned around and the gates closed behind her. Octavia saw a group of four patrolling the courtyard. She unsheathed her hidden blade and ran up to the group. She jumped on the back of a Templar and stabbed. The other guards turned around, and didn't look as frightened as the other patrol did. Octavia drew her sword, as did the guards. One swung at her from behind. She deflected it and killed him with a downward slice. As another guard attacked, she rolled out of the way and plunged the sword into his back. The final Templar noticed he was alone, and started to tremble. Octavia once again sheathed her blade, and held out her hoof. The guard was totally confused. He thought she was offering peace, so he sheathed his blade. As soon as he did however, Octavia shot her hidden gun. The guard got hit in the face and flipped backwards. Octavia reloaded and moved on.

She saw that the main entrance was blocked, so she looked around for other options. She noticed a ladder leading up to the top of the wall, so she climbed it. When she got to the top, she saw four MORE guards. "Geez, what is with them and four?" Octavia thought. She once again ran up to them, not caring if they saw her. as she got to the group, she sliced upwards across a guards chest and then punched him into a wall. a Templar attacked, but it was deflected and he was run through. Octavia felt a pain in her back. She stumbled forward, and fell from the top of the tower. She fell a few stories and landed face down onto the snowy ground. The guards peered down and saw that she wasn't moving. They looked at each other and started to congratulate themselves. As they looked back down however, the assassin was nowhere to be found. "What?!" one Templar screamed. They started to walk backwards. All of a sudden, they each had a sword through them. Octavia let the guards fall to the ground. She put away her hidden blade and sheathed her sword. With that she climbed higher. As Octavia overlooked the town, she noticed Templar groups all over. She decided to be stealthy and follow them. She jumped off the tower and released a parachute, bringing her easily to the ground.

She stood a few yards away from a group of Templars, hidden in a crowd. As they walked, she walked. Hiding in the crowds and sitting down on a few benches. When she followed them to the bottom of the mountain, she saw Commander Chrisalis. "Stay here and watch for the assassin. Do NOT leave until she is dead." A guard looked right at Octavia. "Commander, it seems she has already found us!" Commander Chrisalis started to ride away in a cart pulled by some bulls. Octavia ran after and jumped onto a rope that was swinging behind it. "GO! GO!" The Commander screamed. As Octavia was being dragged behind the cart, she noticed it was starting to tear. She started to climb up the rope. She dogged rocks and bushes. Right as she was about to climb on, she hit a rock a slid back. she hurriedly climbed above the splitting part of the rope as soon as it snapped.

She climbed on board, but the Commander had jumped to another cart. Octavia grabbed the reins and rammed into the other cart. It swayed, but it kept going. The Templar on the other cart tried the same thing. He came over and rammed into Octavia's cart. They both moved away from each other, but the Templar's cart fell into a rocky ditch. It crashed as Octavia caught up with the Commander's cart. They engaged in the same fight as Octavia did before, but this time the cart she was fighting was bigger and tougher. Chrisalis rammed into Octavia. Both of the carts went reeling. They both fell into rocks, but they pulled out just in time. They raced onto a cliff. "DIE, YOU BASTARD!" Chryalis screamed as she hit Octavia's cart a final time. Octavia lost control and fell over the cliff. She hit her back on a rock, and it all went black.
