But guards were closer. Ezio, ruled by his instinctsto survival, he ran away from them toward the perceived safety of the narrow streets behind the<br />

square. To his dismaytion, he saw two more guards, quick, ready to intercept it.<br />

They clashed on the edge of the square. The two guards in front of him, blocking his retreat, others approaching from behind. Ezio fought the first two of<br />

a frenzy. An unfortunate by removing one of them is ripped offpada hand. Fearing that the end was approaching, Ezio turned to flee their attackers ... but<br />

before he threw out cobarrier, something amazing happened. From the alley would be saidogy, and a few feet away, a man appeared roughly seeTido.<br />

With lightning speed, surprised the two guards from behind and with a long knife, cut short by the armpits with arms that held their swords, cutting tendons<br />

and leaving insertimmediate and perceivable. It moved so fast that barely Ezio visual tracking how withdrawing the sword to one of the fallen and tossed it<br />

to him. Ezio suddenly recognized him, and sniffed again have that strongdor of onions and garlic. At that time, or Damascene roses would have smelled<br />

better.<br />

"Get out of here," said the man, and he left.<br />

Ezio ran down the street and plunged into the corridors and passageways as well known for their evenings out with Federich. The commotion and<br />

screaming were slowly fading. He walked to the river, and found refuge in hut abandoned by a sentry behind one of the stores owned by the father of<br />

Cristina.<br />

During that time Ezio stopped being a boy to become a man. The weight of responsibility that he knewNla revenge and correct those horrible evil fell on<br />

his back like a heavy cloak.<br />

Lying on a pile of bags, he noticed that his body empezaba shaking. Their world had just been shattered. His padre ... Federico ... and God, no, the little<br />

Petruccio ... All disappearedacids, all dead, all killed. Holding her head in his hands, began to mourn, unable to control that spillstreatment of pain, fear<br />

and hatred. Only after several hours was caPeace remove his hands from his face, his eyes were bloodshot and full of unyielding vengeance. Ezio At that<br />

moment he knew his former life was over: Ezio, the boy wasBia gone forever. From now on, his life revolved around a goal, one goal: revenge.<br />

Much later, well aware that the guard would still be searching, relentlessly, went to the mansion of the family of Craig following side streets. Unwilling to<br />

put in any danger, but I needed to pick up your bag and its precious contents. He waited in a dark hole that stank of urine, not moving even when the rats<br />

scurrying between his feet, until the light of his window he said he had retired for bed.<br />

- Ezio!She exclaimed when she saw him on his balcony-. Thank God you're alive! Her face reflected the relief I felt, but the term was short, the pain<br />

taking over her-. Your father, your brothers ...<br />

He could not finish the sentence and dropped his head. Ezio took her in his arms and spent several minutes simply embraced.<br />

In the end, it was she who broke the embrace.<br />

- You're crazy! What are you still in Florence?<br />

"Still I have issues that deal truly sorry," saiddo-. But I can not stay here long, is a riskgo too big for your family. If they knew that these surveysbriendome<br />

...<br />

Cristina remained silent.<br />

"Give me my bag and leave.<br />

She went to look, but before giving said<br />

- What about your family?<br />

"That's my first duty. Bury my dead. I'm not allowed to throw into a pit with lime as if they were common criminals.<br />

"I know where they have been taken.<br />

- How do you know?<br />

"In the city has not talked about nothing else all day. But now there is no one for alli. Are close to Porta San Nicslipped, along with the corpses of the<br />

indigent. There is a grave preparedrada, and are waiting to arrive in the morning cars with the lime. Oh, Ezio!<br />

Ezio spoke staying calm but very serious:<br />

"I must take care of my father and my brothers are heading in this world that they deserve. I can not offer a requiem, but I can save his body from the<br />

indignity.<br />

- I'll go with you!<br />

- No! Do you realize what it would mean that surprised yousen me?<br />

Cristina looked down.<br />

"I must also take care of my mother and my sister isTen to save, and I owe to my family one more death. He hesitated-. Intonka I will. Perhaps forever.<br />

The question is: will you come with me?<br />

She stepped back and saw in his eyes Ezio a multitude of conflicting emotions. There was love, deep and lasting, but at the time that had elapsed<br />

since the first day I tookbetween his arms, he had matured a lot more than her. Cristina was a child. How could I pretend to make a sacrifice like that?<br />

"I do, Ezio, do not know how ... but my family ... This would kill my parents ...<br />

Ezio looked at her kindly. Despite being in the same age, his recent experiences had done much more mature than her. He had no family to depend<br />

upon, only responsibility and duty, and that was very hard.<br />

"I've been wrong preguntandotelo. And who knows, perhaps thegun day, when this is back ... "She raised her hands to cuement and in the folds of his<br />

robes located a medallion plata hung from a thin gold chain. Took it off. The medallion was a simple picture, the letter 'A' of your last name-. I want you to<br />

Cristina took it with trembling hands, crying. He looked and then looked at him, to thank him, to give any excuse.<br />

But Ezio was gone.<br />

On the south bank of the Arno, near the Porta San Niccolo, Ezio whatlimestone the desolate place where the bodies lay next to a large pit dug in the<br />
