Chapter 21

Both me and Shay walk up to Fort William Henry. But then we see Jack Weeks sitting next to a campfire, moving the wood around with a stick. As we walk closer to him he sees us and he gets up from kneeling down on the ground.

"Shay, your a sight for sore eyes," Jack said as a joke of course, "And Kathryn, looking as lovely as ever," I mentally roll my eyes.

"Jack?" Shay had a serious tone to his voice. Jack sighs.

"Coronal Monroe surrendered to General Montcalm. The French and their Abenaki allies took Fort Henry," Jack tells us, "Johmson was supposed to bring reinforcements here...." Shay looks around.

"I don't see anyone else," Shay says. I look at both men.

"The Abenaki are restless. They don't understand the terms of surrender and refuse to heed Montcalm," Jack tells both me and Shay.

"So what your saying is that without the reinforcements Coronal Monroe is in some deep shite," I say. Jack nods.

"The Coronal and his men were released this morning. They're walking into an ambush!" Jack says urgently. Shay sighs.

"Wait here in case Johnson arrives," Shay tells Jack. Shay then points to himself and me, "We'll-We'll protect the Coronal," just before me and Shay leave Jack puts a hand on Shay's shoulder.

"Thank you," Jack says to us both. We nod at him and we search for Coronal Monroe.

"Maybe, I can finally repay the dept to him," Shay mumbles to himself. As we run through the forest in a hurry I see several bushes that the Abenaki could hide in.

I use my eagle vision and sure enough I saw an Abenaki in one of the bushes. Just waiting for someone to come near him.

I grab onto Shay's coat. He looks at me and I point to the bushes, "The Abenaki are hiding in the bushes," I tell him. He nods at me. Shay runs up to the Abenaki in the bushes and assassinates him.Shay then looks at me.

"I hope were not too late," Shay tells me. I caress his cheek.

"You and me both," Shay kisses my temple. Then we continue on through the safty of the trees until we reached the groud. I see a cart with a dead red coat lying next to it.

We then then hear thr clashing of the medal of swords. Me move closer to the sound and then we see the Coronal and his men trying to fight off the Abenaki.

Both me and Shay take out our swords and we help them kill the Abenaki. After we kill the last of them the Coronal looks at both me and Shay.

"Master Cormac, Mrs Cormac?" Coronal Monroe was shocked that we were here. Both me and Shay walk up to Coronal Monroe.

"Sir, we must hurry," Shay tells him, "We should bring whats left of your men to the Morrigan,"

"A welcome offer, Captain Cormac," Coronal Monroe thanks Shay. He then looks at his men, "Follow me! Safe passage is ahead," Then me and Shay escort the Coronal and his men back to the Morrigan. We stand next to the Coronal.

"So, if you don't mind me asking, what happened at Fort William Henry?" Shay asks the Coronal.

"Poor planing and poor luck, I am afraid. Montcalm was able to bombard us for days," Coronal Monroe tells Shay.

"Damn frog (If anyone doesn't know why Shay chose to call Montcalm a 'frog. Well I just looked that us and it is a derogatory term for a French person)"Shay says with bitterness.

"Actually, he acted with great honor. When we sent for parlay, he returned an offer far more generous than anticipated. We kept our arms and more importly, our colors, Coronal Monroe tells Shay. I scoff.

"Only to walk into a trap," I tell him. Moroe looks at me.

"I would hardly expect the French to defend us. Would you?" Monroe says to me. I shake my head.

"No, I wouldn't," I tell him.

"You both continue to prove your loyalty to the Templars. Risking your lives for me..." Coronal Monroe says to us.

"Were not out of the woods yet, Coronal. As for my loyalty.... Well I do owe, don't I?" Shay says to him, "You...saved my life....gave me a second chance,"

"If you weren't there....Shay would have died," I address my gratitude for the Coronal, "And I also feel I owe you,"

"We have been working together for a year now. During that time, you both have rendered many great services. Whatever debt you both imagine you have towards me is paid. Wouldn't you say?" Coronal Monore tells us.

"Perhaps," Shay says. I look up above us and I see a figure sneaking toward the edge of the cliff. He looked like an Assassin and he was a native, Kesegowaase. He lookes at Shay surprised to see him alive. He points his tomahawk at Shay

"You live?!" He says in shock. Then he looks at me, "You little lier. You told Liam he was dead!" I scoff.

"I never said I wad truthful!" I shout at him with a mocking tone in my voice. Then I see Hope's gang with him. I chuckle, "So, you need your.....helpers to do your dirty work for you!" Kesegowaase chuckles and he lowers his tomahawk.

"Attack!" he yellz at the gang to attack us. Rifleman shoot at us. Shay covers his body over mine.

"Take cover!" Shay yells out. Then smoke bombs come down on us.

"What are they, a bunch of jessies! (Scottish slang for cowards). I yell out.

"Keep together, men!" The Coronal yells to his men.

"I'll take out as many as I can," Shay says. I quickly grab my swords and I start attacking the gang.

One attacks me and I block his attack. I easily kill as many of them as I could.

"Alright, Coronal. Keep your men moving. Me and Kathryn will scout ahead and signal if there's trouble," Shay tells the Coronal.

"A sensible strategy. Very well, I will lead my men around slowly," Coronal Monroe agrees.

Me and Shay scout ahead and we kill about nine snipers that were possibly going to attack the Coronal and his me. We meet the Coronal by the stream.

"Hurry, Kesegowaase will not relent," Shay tells the Coronal.

"Kesegowaase? It seems you both know him," Coronal Moroe says.

"Aye, Coronal. He's one of Achilles's men. An Assassin....as Kathryn and I were,"

"So this Assassin knows I'm a Templar. Now this Assassin knows you live," Coronal Monroe says.

"And work with Templars. I'm no fool, Coronal. The Assassins will come after me next. We're both targets now," Shay tells the Coronal. As we walk we see a open area. Shay stops the Coronal and points to the open area that leads to the ship, "You know thats a trap, right?" Shay asks him.

"Indeed, Master Cormac. But we have little choice. We survived French canons we will survive this," The Coronal tells Shay. As Coronal Monroe and his men go into the clearing me and Shay kill all of the riflemen above. After they were all gone. The Coronal and his men run to the Morrigan. Me and Shay do the same.

I look beind me and I see Kesegowaase running towards us with the remaining gang members he brought with him. Both me and Shay run faster to the Ship. The Coronal and his men got on the ship safely. Then me and Shay finally get on the ship.

"Loose the sails!" Shay yells out to his crew.

"You heard the Captain men! Let's get out of here! Move! Move!" Gist yells out to the crew. I see that Kesegowaase is getting closer.

"Shay!" Jack gets Shay's attention and Jack picks up an explosive barrel and he throws it towards Kesegowaase and the gang.

Shay pulls out his gun and shots at the barrel once it was close to Kesegowaase and the gang. It made a loud explosion. Unfortunately for Kesegowaase, he was too close to the explosion.

Kesegowaase yells out in pain and the gang members drag him away. I then hear the children crying from the cabin. It must have been the exlosion.

I quickly rush in the cabin and in the cribs I see both Nathan and Haley crying hysterically. I pick them both up and I try and comfort them by singing them a song.

Deep in the meadow, under the willow.
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow.
Lay down your head, and close your eyes.
And when they open, the sun will rise.

Here it's safe, and here it's warm.
Here the daisies guard you from every harm.
Here your dreams are sweet, and tomorrow brings them true.
Here is the place where I love you.

Deep in the meadow, hidden far away.
A cloak of green, a moon beam ray.
Forget your woes, and let your troubles lay.
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away.

Here it's safe, and here it's warm.
Here the daisies guard you from every harm.
Here your dreams are sweet, and tomorrow brings them true.
Here is the place where I love you.

They then stop crying and I kiss them both on the top of their heads. Shay then comes in. He sits on the bed with me. He kisses my temple and he rubs my back.

"The Coronal wants us to meet him at Onaquaga," Shay tells me. I nod my head.

Shay picks up Haley and holds her. He looked so sweet with our daughter in his arms. I look down at our son and I kiss his nose and he resonds with a cute little sneeze. Shay laughs and I ravage Nathan's face with kisses amd he giggles.

Shay leans down anf kisses my lips. Oh god, oh how I love him so.
