Songs that I think fit characters, ships, oc’s etc (pt.1???)

(As you can tell, I’m very bored)

Iwaoi-Jenny by The Studio Killers

-this is pretty self explanatory if you know the lyrics. They have been best friends since childhood. When it says “why I never like your new boyfriends, oh, your love for them won’t last long”. I can definitely imagine Oikawa not understanding why Iwaizumi doesn’t like his new girlfriend. She’s incredibly nice, why wouldn’t anyone like her? Oikawa brushes it off as he just dismissed as Iwa being his grumpy-self, little does he know, his best friend has been in love with him for the longest time.

Philip Graves-Ick by Lay Bankz

-Graves slander till I DIE

The Frye Twins-3005 by Childish Gambino

-I’m pretty sure Childish Gambino actually did write this song about he and his sister! Anyway, I could definitely see this song from Jacob’s pov, as his twin seemed so much more “established” in life, while he is “falling behind”. Yet, he loves his sister and she’s the only family he’s got left. He doesn’t want her to leave for India but wants her to be happy.

Emily Denning (ac syndicate oc)-Hazy Miss Daisy by Kid Bloom

-for a bit of context, Emily was an assassin raised thief that became indebted to the Blighters. She originally was an antagonist towards the Frye twins before joining them (after they showed her evidence that could send her to prison) and picking up the blade again. Hazy Miss Daisy talks about Daisy, who is struggling with various emotions and learning that her actions truly have consequences. Emily is forced to deal how much damage her working for the blighters caused.

The Bad Batch-A L I E N S by Coldplay

-The Bad Batch themselves have been forced to run from the empire. You could argue that the clones feel like “Aliens”, out of place, as they’ve never really had a “set” identity. Their “home” isn’t necessarily a real place, it’s just peace that they can never really find, due to being “property” and born of the empire.

Kei Tsukishima-Alien Boy by Oliver Tree

One lyric I’d definitely like to emphasize is “I fell down to earth, from a hundred miles away, and somehow, I still make it work, but it’s overrated and somehow, played out”. Tsukishima was once a happy little kid until he “fell down to earth” when he realized his brother was a fraud. He still joins the volleyball team obviously but he believes it’s “overrated” and pretends not to care.

Shoyo Hinata-What Was I Made For? by Billie Eilish

I immediately thought of Hinata calling himself “the new tiny giant” as he pursues his own character in the series. After Karasuno looses against Kamomedai, against “the new tiny giant” he is despondent. It’s only when Takeda has his talk with him that Hinata truly has to question who he really wants to be.

Lionel Poussin x Georgette Chevrolet(Ac Unity Oc’s)-Cooler Than Me by Mike Posner

-to put it plainly, Lionel is a shameless flirt+reckless while Georgette is very uptight+cautious. Georgette is basically forced to babysit Lionel (who is a lower rank than she is) and he is definitely not mad about being paired with a pretty swordswoman. You can read more about them in my fic Cœr d’acier 👀 (pinned at the top of my page!)

Aya of Alexandria and Bayek of Siwa-Always Forever by Cults (I love them so much you have no idea)

-you absolutely know they still loved each other, even when they had to part. Even when they had to split up, you KNOW either would come running of the other was in trouble. “You know you’ve got me in your pocket, you don’t just have to wait around”. And Ubisoft if you see this give us a Bayek sequel rn

I was thinking about Aya and Bayek

I was listening to Utada Hikaru’s One Last Kiss it reminds of their relationship over the course of the game.

Assassin's reactions to you trying to learn their native language?

Sure thing!

altair

He’s standing in the doorway when he hears you practicing some words in Arabic. He does commend your efforts for learning but let the master show you how. He is a patient tutor, and he thinks it’s cute when you learn ‘habibi’

edward

I know he speaks English but he is from Wales

If you speak Welsh, it feels like “coming home” for him. A familiar feeling that he feels comfortable with, you two carrying on full conversations in Welsh sometimes.

shay

Kinda same thing for Shay

Speaking Irish Gaeilge/Gaelic is a “safe, familiar” feeling for him, and he’s more than eager to help teach you if you’re curious.

yusuf

Learning Turkish in your spare time is an endeavor but he’s so sweet about it, commending you for learning a new language and eagerly sets aside time for study lessons

ezio

He’s so flattered you’re learning Italian and he’s more into it than you are in trying to learn. But he’s also the super flirty one trying to teach you all the affectionate terms

connor

You’ve always been curious about him and figured a good way to know about him is to study his language. He heard you practicing one day when he comes to the Homestead, and swears his heart started to flutter. Sure he says he’s just trying to help, as if he’s not looking for a way to be closer to you.

aya and bayek

You a new recruit from a different region, and you knew said Founders were adamant about having skills. That being said, Aya commends you for learning the Egyptian dialect and Bayek is such a patient teacher.

arno

He’s going all in when you’re starting to learn French, thinking it sounds so cute when you’re trying to pronounce words and yes, teaches you the flirty ones first

kassandra

It’s nice to have such an accomplished tutor with Kassandra, and learning Greek just seems more fun when she teaches you. That and the other hundreds of dialects shes picked up over the centuries

eivor

Learning Nordic is not easy but whenever Eivor teaches you, it just sounds more melodic with how smooth their voice is you get lost in it

basim

I’d like to think he’d take a more direct approach in teaching you Arabic, dropping a few dialects he’s picked up in Baghdad or in the House of Knowledge.

Bonus

If you speak a different language around Jacob and Evie, I’d imagine they would be curious about learning a new dialect and would even drop a few new learned words around you

I would LOVE to see a crossover between demon slayer & assassin’s creed , like it was something that I’m dying to see ever since I got back into the AC franchise in October.

Also I think you should know about Edward, Shay, and Evie JPN VA’s , BC HOLY SHIT

Kenjiro Tsuda is Edward and NOBODY talks about it and the man is a LEGEND along with the other legends! I relate Edward and Kishibe from CSM bc they both love booze and women. Evie voices Annie from AOT and Shay does Caesar from JJBA battle tendency

(This is kinda an offshoot of this 'what if AC and Demon Slayer characters with the same jp voices meet' idea)

Alright, before we go gushing over the jp voices of the other main characters, let’s first talk about an Assassin’s Creed x Demon Slayer Crossover.

This… will have spoilers for Demon Slayer so Imma put it in a Read More. This will take the backstory of both Demon Slayer and coat it in Assassin’s Creed Isu Bullshit to make this more on the side of ‘two series getting blended together with Isu ice’ crossover than a ‘these characters appear in this series’ crossover.

Game?

Okay, let’s do this.

(sidenote, my fingers are so used to typing Desmond that whenever I want to write Demon, it usually goes “Desmon” so if I missed any Desmon misspelling, let me know XD)

So, Muzan’s experimental treatment happened during the Heian period (794 to 1185) and we won’t get into that much detail about this time but the year is important because this is smack dab (1090) in the middle of the year the Assassin Brotherhood was created (or had transitioned from the Hidden Ones).

So, in this crossover, the experimental treatment that was supposed to save Muzan was created using a failed Isu experiment that an off-branch of the Order of the Ancients have found and were doing human experiments to check if it was possible to use it to prolong their lives like the legends of the misthios who was still hunting them down.

Now, we are using the Order of the Ancients in this one for one simple reason: the Templar Order is still building its presence from the ashes of the Order of the Ancients’ main branch in England and is currently under the ideology of King Aelfred. They’re too busy preparing for their ‘grand entrance’ to do human experiments at the moment (and many members would consider such thing beneath them or against their personal interpretation of the Order of which the Templar Order was meant to usher in).

So, Muzan is gets turned into a demon by this experiment and the Order of the Ancients became his first victims and he tortured + experimented on them to learn the truth. By the time Kassandra gets there, it was already too late. Muzan has created his first few demons to create that specific demon that might ‘cure’ him. Kassandra’s high Isu genes meant that she could do feats that normal humans cannot do and these skills gave her an edge in fighting the demons together with the hidden blade she now possessed.

She managed to take down the demons Muzan created (which was a good thing because they were about to tell Muzan about the Isus) and she fought Muzan as well. Unfortunately, she was unable to defeat him and Muzan tries to turn her into a demon as well… to enslave her to him.

The Isu ‘tech’ that was used to make Muzan into a demon reacted to Kassandra differently though and instead she seemingly died after having a severe seizure.

Muzan left disappointed but an hour later, Kassandra gasps as she opened her eyes.

She doesn’t know what happened and if the Staff had been the one to save her or not but she retreats for now, knowing it would be futile to take Muzan alone.

She needed allies…

From Heian Period to The Third Crusades/Kamakura period:

Kassandra makes contact with the Ubuyashiki family and helps in the creation of the Demon Slayer Corps (more as a secret co-conspirator because she knows Muzan would hunt her and the Ubuyashiki family if he learns she lived)

She tried to contact the Hidden Ones as well but learned that the Hidden Ones are no more, having been absorbed by the Assassin Brotherhood who are currently ‘unavailable’ so Kassandra is on her own at the moment.

Kassandra would leave Japan to finally contact the Assassin Brotherhood once she was sure that the Demon Slayer Corps could handle their own. She meets with their current mentor, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, to talk about the demon problem in Japan.

Altaïr joins her in Japan to check the situation himself, leaving the Brotherhood to Malik Al-Sayf, and they learn that the Apple cannot control them at all yet they could be misled by the Apple’s illusions. It’s thru Altaïr’s studies with the Apple that they learn why Kassandra survived Muzan trying to turn her into a demon. Those with high concentrated Isu genes have varying immunity to being turned into demons and there is a defense mechanism in play in certain individuals to keep them from turning into demons. Altaïr says that this mechanism is only in certain people and, if they drink blood from either Muzan or Kassandra (who has been ‘infected’ in a sense), they would gain a similar immortality that Kassandra possessed.

Things happened, the demons attack, Altaïr is wounded saving the current Oyakata-sama and Kassandra berates him for being reckless. Altaïr tells her that his wounds are too severe so Kassandra agrees to let him drink her blood. Altaïr doesn’t turn into a demon but is revived as effectively an immortal like Kassandra (although the infection made the Staff’s immortality setup moot, making both Kassandra and Altaïr not age but be able to die if their body takes too much damage). Altaïr returns to Masyaf to make preparation to branch out the Brotherhood before it became clear he was no longer aging.

Once everything is done, Altaïr relinquishes his title to Malik and tells everyone that he will create a Brotherhood in Japan. The Japanese Brotherhood would look after Templar activities (which seemed to be in the bud at the moment) while helping the Demon Slayer Corp in their endeavours to kill demons and find and take out Muzan once and for all.

Unfortunately, Kassandra and Altaïr’s appearances made Muzan realize that, if he wants to survive and reach his goal, keeping his plans in Japan is not the way to go.

They hear rumors that Muzan left Japan and now Kassandra and Altaïr go their separate ways to try and find Muzan.

Sidebar: Altaïr definitely went to the Island of Tsushima to fight off the Mongols and he reunites with his oldest son Darim there who told him that Sef is now the mentor. Altaïr gives Darim his Armor of Altaïr (that’s not the original name, Altaïr named it the Sunlight Armor but… uuhhh… the name got changed later on due to… time) and the eagle sword forged in Scarlet Crimson Iron Sand and Scarlet Ore. He has his own nichirin sword and he warns Darim that if they were ever faced with an enemy that seemed unworldly, use his sword or their hidden blades.

The original hidden blades used by the Hidden Ones (most of which were used by the Assassins in Alamut and Masyaf) were forged from Scarlet Crimson Iron Sand and Scarlet Ore as well. It’s unclear where the Hidden Ones got the ores and sands but Kassandra has an inkling it’s connected to a mysterious merchant ally of the Hidden Ones that she only heard the name of “Thousand Eyes”. Altaïr had requested that more hidden blades be created for the Brotherhood in Japan and that they ship a few of them to the other branches to give them a chance in case a demon gets there.

Renaissance Italy/Muromachi(Sengoku) Period:

Altaïr gets to Italy because he learns of an Apple being transported into Venice. By the time he gets there, the Apple is in the hands of Ezio Auditore who had retaken it from the Templars after an epic punch out in the Vatican. He managed to get to the Italian Brotherhood’s main headquarters, Monteriggioni, just in time to warn them about the army he saw on his way to them.

A lot of people do a doubletake because, yeah, he looks a lot like the statue of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad but he just waves it off as him being a descendant because there’s no way he was going to say ‘yeah, I’m the real deal and I’m sorta immortal at the moment because there is a much larger problem than Templars right now.’

He helps them protect the town but they knew that they had to leave. The Papal Army will return with more soldiers and they wouldn’t bat an eye razing the entire town into the ground just to ‘clean’ the taste of defeat from their mouth.

They all go to Rome with many of the civilians joining them and Altaïr gets sucked into the whole ‘let’s get all of Rome against the Borgias!’ plan.

He and Ezio become friends and he also becomes a close advisor to Ezio’s early years as a mentor, just to help him get to his feet and figure out by himself what kind of mentor he wants to be.

Ezio also lets Altaïr study the Apple and the two Apples resonant with one another, showing Altaïr and Ezio a blurry vision of someone. Ezio believes that person is the one the goddess call Desmond. Altaïr doesn’t understand why but he also believes that Ezio is right. That person is Desmond…

Cesare still poisons his father and runs away, Ezio and Altaïr chase after him but Altaïr is distracted by the appearance of three demons who tried to kill him while Ezio continued to chase after Cesare. Feeling dread in the pits of his stomach, Altaïr takes care of the three demons and tried to find Ezio and Cesare.

He’s just in time to see Cesare pierce Ezio’s stomach and it was clear that Cesare had become a demon, Ezio didn’t let that deter him, using the sword Altaïr had given to Darim all those years before to behead Cesare. As his head and body fell to the cliff below as it disintegrated, Ezio falls to his knees.

Altaïr gives him his blood before he dies because he knows, something inside him knows, that Ezio is one of the people with the defense mechanism. Ezio is revived and he returns to Italy with Altaïr.

After he was sure the Brotherhood would be okay even if he was no longer the mentor, Ezio joined Altaïr in traveling to Masyaf because Ezio had a vision when he was turned of a castle that, when he described it to Altaïr, sounded a lot like Masyaf. Although Altaïr has no idea what this supposed door underneath Masyaf was meant to be. There was no door there before.

The Ezio-Sofia thing happens in the background and it takes them longer to find the memory seals (which now contain memories of Sef). The last memory seal they find is actually in Sef’s resting place in Alexandria and Sef directly talks to Altaïr, “Father, I know you’re out there somewhere. I made all of these because of a dream I had. I cannot truly explain it but… there is something in Masyaf that must be kept a secret until you return. Once you see it… you will understand what must be done to keep the world safe from the darkness crueler than the Templars will ever be.”

When they finally entered the underground ‘garden’ (as legends go, it was a garden that Sef had tended every day), it’s dark but they could see something blue glowing at the center. Once they were close enough, they realize it was a flower bed of blue spider lilies.

And, in the center of the flower bed, a man was sleeping. No. He wasn’t moving at all.

Was he dead?

They cautiously stepped closer and the moment Ezio and Altaïr were by the edge of the flower bed, the slightly glowing blue spider lilies glowed brightly before slowly losing all colors, turning into white spider lilies. It started from the edge then slowly moved inward until the last blue spider lilies to lose their color were the ones underneath the man.

A second pass…

And the man gasped as he sat up.

He turned to look at the two men staring at him and blinked as he called out, “Altaïr? Ezio?”

They don’t know how or why but both of them answered, “Desmond…”

Dun dun dun!

Yup. Ending it there at the moment because this was getting looonngg. I’ll continue with the Kenway family drama another time (and, this time, we get Kassandra and Edward duking it out in naval combat).

I am thinking if we should make Haytham and Shay immortals OR, let’s add lots of Kenway family drama in this one (as well as Dorian-Cormac feud) by making them both demons instead (and they’ll be part of the Twelve Kizukis). I’m honestly leaning toward the latter XD.

Sorry if this was light on the Demon Slayer characters but the main characters of Demon Slayer won’t be born until the Taisho Era (1910ish) but, at that point, you bet the story would be much more different since there’s gonna be butterfly effects.

Other than that, yes, we are making Desmond the living embodiment of the blue spider lilies that Muzan was looking for because I show my love to Desmond by making his life complicated XD

========================

Now, let’s gush over the JP voices of the other AC main characters.

Before anything else…

Desmond Miles is voiced by Hiroki Tōchi

Who voices as a lot of older men types (Malik from Tales, General Cross from D.Gray-man, Ovan from .hack, Mael from Seven Deadly Sins and Klaus from Valkyria Chronicles) which I find funny. He’s also the jp voice of Gavin Reed (Detroit Become Human), Chris Redfield (RE) and Nathan Drake (Uncharted).

Funny thing? He voiced Toki from Fist in the North Star in the 2010 anime adaptation BUT Tomokazu Seki (EZIO) took over for the 2010 and 2013 video games.

AND to make things even funnier, Haytham is voiced by Kenyu Horiuchi who voiced Toki in the 2023 Fitness Boxing game and the Legend of Raoh anime. XD

(honestly, there’s a lot of Fist of the North Star voice actors in Assassin’s Creed with Altaïr’s voice actor being one of the go-to voices of Kenshiro XD)

Edward Kenway is voiced by Kenjiro Tsuda (yeeesss, he’s definitely a Legend! He’s freaking Seto Kaiba!)

He also voiced Gris/Gregory from Fire Emblem, Luis Sera from the RE4 remake, Zeke from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Zaveid from Tales, CHIKAGE from Hakuoki, FIRE EMBLEM from Tiger & Bunny, TATSU from The Way of the Househusband, NANAMI from Jujutsu Kaisen, Overhaul from MHA/BNHA, and have I already said that he voiced Seto Kaiba from YuGiOh? Yeah? Well, he voiced Seto Kaiba from YuGiOh. I think the best part is that he voiced Hannes from AOT. Hhhmmmm… parental figure to a main character that has dirty blond hair and is using alcohol to cope with the bad shit in his life only to die in front of said main character? Lollollol (also, also, Kishibe, Hannes, and Edward would definitely try to drink each other under the table)

Evie Frye is voiced by Yu Shimamura

As @ullyaboo has already said, voiced Annie in AOT, she’s also the voice of Zelda in TOTK, Mature in 2018 King of Fighters game (who was usually voiced by Hiroko Tsuji), Cindy from FFXV, Shinobu from JoJo, and Ilina from Chaika.

Once more, Rogue’s voice actors are not in Behind the Voice Actors so I had to doublecheck with the jp wiki. XD

Shay Cormac’s voice actor is Takuya Satou

Who voices CAEEESSAAARRRR in JoJo (sidenote: Old man Joseph is voiced by Unshō Ishizuka who voices William Miles XD), Machias from Trails, Albert James Moriarty from Moriarty, Conrad and Abel from Fire Emblem, and Alphen in Tales.

Crossover Universe – The Lonely Eagle

Summary: Altaïr's life and losing his beloved before he entered into Crossover Universe… Trigger Warnings: Violence, death and depression

I just want to point out that Altaïr is from an AU took place before the AC1 events (which eventually won't happen), Adha is not the Chalice, and Umar cared for his son as much as he could because of Al Mualim's ban love. And I don't know how to describe the fights well and the ending kinda sucks. Sorry... 😅

Enjoy! 💗

The sun was setting behind the walls of Damascus, the sun's rays were slowly being absorbed by the shadow. In the bureau, the young Master Assassin brought Rafiq a bloody feather as proof of the target being killed.

"Excellent work, Altaïr," playful Rafiq complimented, "You can rest here so you can gain your strength to return to Masyaf tomorrow."

Altaïr waved his hand, "I don't need to," he replied, "I'd rather go." "But it's getting dark." "You don't have to be worried. It's not my first, nor last journey. Safety and peace, Rafiq." Rafiq nodded, bid him farewell and continued his work.

Altaïr left the bureau and ran across the rooftops until he reached near the gate of the city in the Rich District. But he had no plans to go there. Instead, he jumped into one of the balconies where a young woman was arranging flowers. She noticed his shadow and looked behind.

"Safety and peace, Adha," Altaïr smiled warmly, and the woman ran in excitement towards him and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Altaïr! You've arrived!" "I promised, remember?" he laughed softly and returned her hug, "I always keep my promises." They stayed in a long embrace until Adha kissed his scarred lips. Altaïr glady kissed her back.

The two first met a few years ago on a Damascus street. Adha was harassed by a drunken guard and Altaïr saved her from him. Since then, they liked to meet each other secretly, even Altaïr trained her to defend herself and eventually they fell in love.

After the kiss, they took a breath and looked into each other's eyes. "Let's go inside," Adha suggested, "It's getting cold."

Altaïr happily followed her into her bedroom. He took off his weapons, gloves, and hood so he could lay on the pillows and cuddle with her. The couple started making out and showed so much love and passion to each other.

"I love you, habibi," Adha whispered these sweet words that caressed Altaïr's heart and he played with her beautiful long black hair while gazing at her gorgeous face. "I love you too, habibti."

As they snuggled together, Altaïr wondered if he could change his life. He had never felt happier than when he was with Adha. Would he take her into Masyaf so they could live there together? But what would Al Mualim say about it? He was opposed to love. He always told Altaïr and the rest of brothers that love, both parental and romantic, is a weakness and a distraction to emotions from focus and logic.

Altaïr never understood why because he felt being stronger thinking about Adha and his late father Umar. He remembered when he was eight years old boy, once he was playing with Malik and Kadar and accidentally dropped a pile of papers from the table. It angered the master and wanted to punish him by beating him. Thankfully, Umar stopped Al Mualim at the right time and took Altaïr away from him. His father only reprimanded Altaïr, but still he knew he was only a child and hugged him comfortingly.

However, after his father's death, Altaïr experienced physical punishments from Al Mualim more frequently when he said something inappropriate or disobeyed his master. It got worse when Abbas turned his back on him and began to hate him because of the truth about his father's suicide, thinking Altaïr wanted to shame him in front of the whole brotherhood. And later Altaïr was running back and forth on missions like an obedient dog, even though he had attained the rank of Master Assassin. He was getting mentally tired and had enough of the killing.

He wondered if he had not been born into a brotherhood, but if he had been born as a merchant or a farmer. If since childhood he would have held a mattock instead of a sword. Instead of fighting to the death, he would have plowed the fields and sold goods. What would it be like to live as an ordinary civilian living a peaceful life with his family? He had never known this life, but it fascinated him.

"Altaïr?" Adha's voice roused him from his thoughts, "Are you alright? You're quiet." She kissed his cheek and he smiled softly. "I'm sorry, dear. I was just… Thinking…" "About what?" Her curious sweet voice tickled his ears and she snuggled against his chest while Altaïr petted her head.

"Whether I would… I would I leave the brotherhood and live with you forever." Adha's smile disappeared and she was unpleasantly surprised. "What? But you can't just tell your Mentor you're going to leave! He won't let you!"

"I know. And that's why we'd rather run away from the Holy Land together." "But they will pursue and kill us for treason!" Altaïr cupped her cheeks and kissed her forehead to comfort her.

"You don't have to panic, my love," he whispered with a smile, "I have a plan… The next time I have another mission in Damascus, I will complete it, then come to you and we will escape together at night." "But where?"

He thought for a moment while cuddling his beloved. Then an idea hit him: "We'll go south to Alexandria and find a new home there."

"And aren't there assassins as well?" "Yes, but they won't recognize me." "And what if they notice your ring finger is missing?" "I'll tell them I lost my finger while fighting a bandit."

Adha became sad, tears appeared in her eyes. "What's wrong?" Altaïr asked concerned. "Sorry Altaïr," Adha sniffled, "I'm only worried about us. I never went so far from home-" "Shh… You don't have to worry, habibti. I will protect you. I promise."

Adha calmed down as Altaïr snuggled closer and kissed her. "As you wish, Altaïr. I'll follow you to Alexandria." "Trust me, Adha. Next time I come to you, we'll leave the Holy Land and start over. We'll have a beautiful life together…"

One month later, Altaïr was given the mission in Damascus, packed his most valuable belongings and took one last look at Al Mualim and Abbas with a frown. Then he walked slowly through Masyaf like saying goodbye to his home. He jumped on his horse and looked at Masyaf Castle for the last time.

"Ma'a salama…" he quietly said farewell and galloped away. He reached Damascus after less than two days, then he completed the mission and in the evening went to Adha. He knocked on the balcony door and she opened it.

"Altaïr…" They hugged again and kissed each other's lips. "So are we leaving today?" Adha inquisitively asked. He nodded and stared lovingly at his beloved while she started packing. "Let me help you, dear," Altaïr asserted and helped her find the important things, which made Adha giggle. Later together they left Damascus at night.

Both of them traveled through deserts for several days. They have managed to avoid conflicts and bandits. They arrived at Tyre, where they boarded a ship bound for Alexandria. Altaïr hoped that no Assassins or Templars had found and followed them. Fortunately, everything went according to his plan and he relaxed.

The ship sailed on the Mediterranean Sea under the night sky, while the passengers slept in the berth. Altaïr sat while hugging the sleeping Adha, keeping an eye on everyone around them, ready to defend his beloved. Adha murmed something quietly and opened her eyes.

"Is everything alright, Adha?" Altaïr breathed with slight concern. "And you're not sleeping?" muttered Adha playfully. "I'm just guarding you. I don't trust anyone here." "I understand, but you could use some sleep." Altaïr chuckled and kissed her cheek. "I'll sleep later, don't worry about me." "By the way, Altaïr?" "Yes, love?"

Adha placed her hands on his cheeks and gazed into his mysterious golden eyes. "When you told me you always keep promises… Promise me one thing: if something happens to one of us, we'll find someone else to be happy with.''

Altaïr didn't understand what she meant by this. "Why? I love only you, Adha. Nobody else!" "Don't worry, I love only you as well, but if-" "No if, dear. Nothing bad is going to happen to us, alright?"

Adha sighed and cuddled closer to him. "Alright. Sorry." "Don't apologize, habibti. I know you're just scared," Altaïr smiled warmly, "Tomorrow we will be in Alexandria and we will begin a new beautiful life. Trust me."

Later in the early morning before dawn, Altaïr and Adha slept together with the other passengers. They were suddenly awakened by a scream from outside.

"The crusaders! The crusaders are attacking!" shouted one panicked passenger. Altaïr didn't hesitate and pulled out his dagger. "Shit… Templars must have found us!" he cussed, "Adha! Hide!" Adha fearfully attended at him and quickly kissed him hard on the lips passionately.

He kissed her back and they immediately stared at each other. "Please… Be careful…" Adha spoken in low voice and then hid. Altaïr heard the screams of the slain passengers and the clanging of metals. Hiding in the shadows, he waited for his prey.

The three crusaders were heading to the berth and that's when Altaïr struck, stabbing one of them in the neck. "An assassin! Kill him!" and the fight began. Altaïr taunted the crusaders confidently, fighting agaist two was a piece of cake for him.

He deflected their swords away with his dagger and stabbed another man several times in the chest. The last younger crusader started to panic, which gave Altaïr an advantage.

But the young crusader began to shout: "Help! Assassin is here! He wants to kill me!" Altaïr could not afford it and was about to kill him, but three more crusaders caught up and the fight continued. Being an experienced fighter, Altaïr was now at a disadvantage. One of the taller crusaders punched him into face until he fell to the ground.

The enemy was about to give him a fatal blow, but Adha jumped up and stabbed with a sword that belonged to the slain foe. "Adha!" Altaïr panicked, quickly getting to his feet and fighting on, now side by side with his beloved. "I can't let you fight alone!" she screamed. Altaïr focused on the fight and killed another crusader. The last two remained and managed to defeat them.

The couple looked at each other, panting from exhaustion, and proudly smiled. Suddenly, Adha stiffened, the young crusader was about to stab Altaïr from behind. "Altaïr! Behind you!" she yelled. Altaïr dodged but the crusader managed to stab Adha into chest.

"ADHA! NO!" Altaïr cried, knocking the crusader to the side and holding his beloved in his arms. "Adha! Don't worry! I'll get you out of this somehow-"

"Altaïr…" Adha stopped him, "It's the end of me…" she coughed up blood and was breathing heavily. Altaïr shook his head in disbelief, tears started streaming from his eyes. "No… NO! Don't leave me, Adha! Please! Stay with me, my love!" Adha weakly placed her left hand on his cheek, her thumb gently caressing his lip scar. "I love you, Altaïr…" she whispered weakly with a sad smile. Then her hand fell to the ground and her soul departed with a final sigh.

More Altaïr's tears slid down his cheeks. He was looking into her now dead eyes. He couldn't believe it was reality… He has lost his beloved forever… Just like he lost his parents forever… With an aching heart, he gently closed her eyes with his fingers, hugged her body tightly and cried.

"Adha… I'm so sorry… This wasn't supposed to happen… It's all my fault… Please forgive me… My love…"

As he mourned, he heard the wounded young crusader crawling across the floor. Altaïr's face changed from sadness to rage. He raised his dagger and lunged at him. "You… Will… SUFFER!" he growled viciously and began stabbing the crusader's shoulder several times, causing his victim to scream in pain until he died.

Altaïr left the berth and went outside. The ship became a deadly battleground. He ran and bloodthirsty killed every crusader he saw. However, rage blinded his perception of his surroundings. One brute ran at him and hit him so hard that Altaïr fell overboard into the sea.

He could use the rest of his strength to swim up, but he lost the motivation…

There was nothing to fight for anymore…

He slowly closed his eyes and accepted his fate…

Adha…

My love…

I failed to protect you…

My plan was a terrible idea…

Darkness…

Silence…

Only darkness and silence…

Is it the end?

Am I in the afterlife?

Is there finally peace?

If so, please forgive me when we meet again…

Please…

Forgive me, habibti…

Wait a minute?

I'm breathing…

No water?

Wait?

The voices?

I don't understand a word, but I can hear them…

I'm starting to understand them now…

I must open my eyes…

Altaïr slowly opened his eyes, seeing the room in a blur. "Look! He's waking up!" an unknown female voice heard. He noticed two people in front of him, but couldn't see them properly.

"You're alive, neb!" the man's voice rejoiced. Altaïr blinked and finally saw the persons much better: a middle-aged man and woman, both with similarly long black dreadlocks and wearing robes and weapons. They realized they were assassins, but they didn't seem to be from the Levantine Brotherhood. He had no idea if it was the afterlife or a dream or they saved him and made it to Alexandria.

The first thing he asked was: "Where is Adha?" Pain could be heard in his voice. The couple looked at each other incomprehension. "Where is Adha!?" he cried plaintively, "Where is my beloved?!"

The woman grabbed his shoulders, "Calm down! Breathe!" Altaïr took a deep breath and exhaled, to calm himself down. "What is your name, young man?" she asked him.

"Al… Altaïr…" he introduced himself wearily, "Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad." The older pair couldn't believe their ears, "That famous Mentor Altaïr?" the man asked in disbelief. "What?" Altaïr didn't understand, "No, not a Mentor. I'm only a Master Assassin… Or was… And who are you?"

"My name is Bayek of Siwa and this is Amunet," an older man introduced, "We are the Mentors of the Assassin Brotherhood." "Wait? Amunet? Shouldn't you live a thousand years ago?!" Altaïr was shocked. He heard about her in the legends, how she killed Cleopatra thanks to the cobra.

"That's not possible… This is just a dream! It's all just a dream! I must wake up!" "It's not a dream, Altaïr," Amunet replied sadly. "So I'm actually dead?" "Not even this," Bayek shook his head, "Our scouts found you lying unconscious on the beach near the hideout."

"And Adha?" Altaïr asked with hope. "Only you, neb," Bayek added glumly, "We're so sorry about your lost." Altaïr's heart ached from his words and he felt hollow. "Then… Where am I?"

"You are now in Accipiteria, in the Island of Eagle," Amunet answered, "In other words, in the island of Assassins." "Never heard about it before," Altaïr said confused.

"Because this isn't Earth, this is Thansuokria," Bayek continued, "A planet where several alternate timelines and worlds merge into a single universe."

"What is this sorcery?! Impossible!" Altaïr trembled, "I don't belong here! I have to go back!"

Bayek and Amunet just stared pitifully at the poor Master Assassin. "None of us belong here as well. We were also stunned when we found ourselves on this world," Bayek said trying to encourage him, "But we are Assassins who always stick together and stop Templars from at least defiling this world. Join us, brother… And let's make the world a better place." Altaïr knew he had no other choice and agreed with a shaking hand.

Later, Altaïr rested in bed as he was slightly injured from the fight. He kept thinking about Adha and his soul felt empty. He looked up at his robes, which had originally belonged to his father, remembering the first time he had put them on himself, thus bearing the honor of Umar. This made him feel ashamed and turned to other way.

He kept replaying the scene in his mind of him losing Adha, which made his heart break. What would happen if he didn't dodge? He should have stabbed that bastard with a hidden blade. But instead, he let his beloved being stabbed by a Templar.

Now Altaïr was in another brotherhood of assassins, where several assassins were from different time periods. He had the feeling that this was all a punishment for trying leaving his Order. Tears stung his eyes and he sobbed quietly into the pillow, constantly whispering Adha's name and apologies.

And since then, he decided never to fall in love, so no one else would lose their life because of him. He became much colder and crueler, devoting himself to the Creed fully.

And that's why the Assassins called Altaïr: The Lonely Eagle…
