Power of Thor

Kim and Raven have been besties for years,so for University,they decided to move in together,in the busy capital.

What united them most was their burning addiction for the Assassins' Creed game franchise.
Raven,being a fan of the classics,enjoyed the first 3 one the most,having made a fictional emotional bond with the arrogant Arab and the stoic Native American.
Kim,however,was more of a troublemaker,so she dreamt of causing mayhem with the male British Frye twin.

One magical day,after having played together way too much for their own good,and their house being a mess full of pizza cartons and empty soda cans,them being asleep on each other,on the carpet,in front of the TV,a space-time anomaly took place,and somehow,our beloved game Assassins...came to life.
In our own homes.
While we were sleeping.

----

"What's going on?"
"Who are you,people?"
"You're all assassins,I see..."
"But how did we get here?"
"Dammit,and I was THIS close to catching that Jack the Reaper bastard!"
"No,you weren't...idiot..."
"Why do your attires look similar yet different,if you're all assassins?"
"Mate...I don't think we're in our place anymore...or time...or anything rational."
"This is utterly preposterous!I have no time for foolishness.Al Mualim would never tolerate this."
"Shut up,Novice!"
"This house look so weird...and dirty..."
"Looks pretty normal to me."

All the loud blabbering wouldn't stop,so Raven acted on instinct,and shouted for them to shut up,not realizing strangers were in their house.
Dangerous Strangers.

Kim:*waking up*Um...Raven...?Why do we have cosplayers in our house..?
Raven:*bites lip*This looks so out of place...Literally.How the hell did you get here?
Ezio:Mi amore,a lady shouldn't use such obscene language!Is not fitting to such beauty!
Me:Ezio Auditore,if I take a guess.Forget the pleasantries,and just tell us what happened.I won't believe you are real Assassins.This is no fictional story.(4th wall break on point)
Ezio:Mia cara,you see,I just...appeared here!I was running for my next target,and the next second,I am here!What is this madness?!
Me:I just...
Kim:Whoa!Raven!ASSASSINS!IN OUR HOUSE!Bloody awesome!
Jacob:Ya know it,kid!
Kim:Kid?KID?I'M NOT A KID!I'M ALMOST AS OLD AS YOU!
Jacob:Okaaaay...Kiddo.*winks*
Kim:Smug Bastard...
Me:Shut it!If you're really Assassins,there's got to be away for you to prove it.
Ezio:And we can!Look at our gear,ragazza!Pure Assassin gear!
Me:Please...I've seen enough similar costumes...
Kim:Great cosplayers!
Jacob:Cos...player?What's that?Sounds cool?
Kim:Master disguiser,of some sort.
Jacob:Oh,cool!Sounds fancy!
Kim:I love cosplaying!
Altaïr:If you fools can stop wasting your breathe with useless trivia,then maybe the ones with a functional brain can think up a solution for this disaster.
Me:He's right.And I just did.
Altaïr:What must be done to prove our authenticity?
Me:Show me your ring finger.Both you and Malik.
Altaïr:Excuse me?
Me:Ring finger.Fingers usually tell a tale.
Malik:And if we don't have them?
Jacob:Why wouldn't you have a finger?
Ezio:Oh,si!Leonardo fooled me when he created my hidden blade.Our ancestors used to have a finger removed,for the blade to work properly!
Malik:Wait,you don't do that anymore?
Jacob:*shrugs*Never heard if it.
Evie:Because you're an idiot.
Jacob:Hey!
Connor:*clears throat*Please,quiet down.If the situation can be solved,let's do so with haste.
Altaïr:*shows hand*Here's your answer,clever girl.Happy?
Kim:OH MY GOD!
Raven:*blinks*If I write a book right now,I'll be rich...
Connor:If the confusion has been cleared,how do we solve this bigger mistery?
Raven:Give me a second to think...
Kim:Imagine all the pranks we can pull!-
Raven:Space and Time anomaly...perhaps a worm hole?-
Kim:And we can see how you react to modern things!Like a phone!-
Raven:I think this has been documented once,in a science book I've read for university...perhaps a thunderstorm?-
Kim:Novice and Malik fighting!
Altaïr:Novice?!Who are you calling a Novice,you insufferable wench?
Malik:*laughs*That's /you/!...Novice!
Altaïr:Why you...!
Kim:See!Malik knows the deal!
Ezio:Why is everyone being so loud?I thought Venezia was loud...
Connor:I'm going outside...
Me:*gets up*N O!Connor,and the others,you must NOT,and I mean it,under NO circumstance,leave the house without me.Please.I beg of you.You'll only bring us trouble.
Kim:Oh come ooon,don't worry so much!It's gonna be fiiineee!We have the Unstoppable Jacob Frye here!
Jacob:OH,YES!See,Evie?The young missy said the Unstoppable JACOB Frye,not EVIE Frye!BE JEALOUS!
Evie:*facepalms*Oh,brother...
Raven:*desperate*GUYS!Please,just listen and do as I say!Everything will be solved,sooner or later,and you'll get back to your world!But only if you listen to me!
Ezio:What kind of gentlemen are you,upsetting this lovely lady who's offering her help?Brutes,that's all you are!
Connor:Someone with common sense,at least...
Evie:Surprisingly.
Altaïr:We are Assassins,not some helpless children,so there's no need to care for us,girl.

But just as he said that,he opened the exit door,and cars,motorbikes and scooters kept making noise by passing by our house.Children yelling,people talking on the phone,music playing...it was all too much for the angry Arab,that might have just had a panic attack,for he slammed the door shut,locked it,and turned to us,seriously.

Altaïr:We thank you for your hospitality,girl.
Raven:*falls to her knees*I'm going to start crying...
Kim:Raven,are you okay?
Raven:Of course not!I had trouble babysitting you!Can you imagine how it will be taking care of 6 other people,who have no idea about technology or modern customs?Connor is a Native American,but at least he's not almost 1000 year our predecessors!Altaïr being stubborn and Malik always provoking him will be my worst nightmare...And Ezio's flirting/sexual harassment...and Evie trying to control Jacob...
Kim:At least Connor can help you!I can help too!*winks*
Raven:Sure,by pranking Altaïr with Jacob.
Kim:Dammit...She found out...
Raven:Let's gather around in this living room,while Kim brings food and drinks.This way,we can focus on the task ahead and we shall all be satisfied with the result.I have to get a book and...somehow get you clothes...FITTING clothes.21 century clothes.Can I trust you with this simple task?

They all nodded,looking like saints,which is their exact opposite spectrum.

While Raven was busy getting the material needs for their time-travelling friends,Kim was plotting pranks,giggling,which caught the Brit's attention,and scuttered next to her,joining the evil plans.Their next target was obviously,the easiest to anger.
Novice.

Sitting on the floor,Altaïr and Malik were fighting,Ezio was chanting 'Fight!Fight!',Jacob and Kim were setting up pranks...while Evie kept taking them away.And Connor,the only sane one,was sitting in silence,meditating,while dreaming of his childhood forest.

This short episode escalated quickly,as Kim,getting bored of Evie ruining the plans,went to Altaïr and yelled 'FIGHT ME,NOVICE!' ,while pointing her finger in his face.
Malik,Ezio and Jacob were cheering for the girl.
Evie was getting worried for her safety with each second growing.
Altaïr was fuming.
0 self control left.
Connor was trying to keep his cool.

---5 minutes later---

Raven finished her tasks,and with her hands full of clothes,she returned to the living room..only to find it more of a mess than it was before.
Everyone was a mess.
Literally.

Raven:I don't care much about your lives anymore.You can die,for all I care.But not in MY house.I won't be responsible for the lives of 6 failures.
Ezio:Mia cara,wait-!
Me:Vaffanculo,Auditore!

Disappointed,the girl glared at her,dropped the clothes on the floor,and holding her book close to her chest,she left the house and ran to the forest close to their house.Her little piece of haven.
Sitting down,she opened the book,trying to find the way to get those pests back in the game (and delete it afterwards).

What she wasn't expecting,however,was a certain Kenway to appear from above her,faces close,as he was swaying on the tree branch above my head.

Me:Was it necessary?I am in need of peace,if you didn't notice.
Connor:And so did I.All the ruckus was distorting my peace.
Raven:*sighs*Guess you're not as annoying as the others...
Connor:I shall take it as a compliment.
Raven:Do as you please.
Connor:I wish to know your theory regarding our appearance in your time.
Raven:*raises a brow*Intriguing?But can you take the science?
Connor:*small smile*I'm a fast learner.
Raven:Very well.*takes out book*There were some people who tried to time travel.I suppose you know what that means,right?
Connor:People appearing in other eras than their own,I presume?
Raven:Positive.They wanted to see how each minor change in time can alter a timeline...or maybe it would stay normal,and create a new timeline?Who knows...
Connor:What if you kill your past self?
Raven:I don't know.There is no written proof of any successful time travel attempt.However,I suppose one remains in a limbo state.
Connor:*nods*I believe I grasp the whole idea.
Raven:Those unfortunate idiots who wished to play God never heard of the Chaos Theory or the Butterfly effect.Or even Murphy's Law.
Connor:*tilts head*I do not think I understand these...thesis?
Raven:First of all,it is said that if something can go bad,it will.Just like how,if you drop a bread with jam,it will fall on the jam part,if it's at a relatively short distance.
Connor:Sounds like a waste of jam.
Raven:*nods*That's the concept of one of Murphy's Laws.The Butterfly effect says,in a nice comparison,that if a Butterfly flaps its wings,it will someday create a tornado.
Connor:That is a beautiful comparison.But what does it mean?
Raven:Let's say your life is at it normally is.Your life in the future won't change.However,if someone...taps you on the shoulder,for example,your whole life will change.
Connor:How is that possible?
Raven:Let's say you were walking ahead.Normally,if you wouldn't have stopped,a pine cone would have fallen on your head.But now that the person tapped you on the shoulder,making you halt in place,the pine cone fell on the ground and not on your head.
Connor:*blinks*That does make sense...
Raven:*looks away*It's science.Of course it makes sense.Science is the base of everything.
Connor:I see your time is significantly more advanced than mine.What century is it?
Raven:The 21st century.And you were in the 18th century...Times where women were being killed for being able to heal their peers...how utterly disbelieving.A native American tribe leader was executed with a tomahawk during those times,for 'witchcraft'.
Connor:I haven't heard of that,while at home.How do you know?
Raven:History is written and read.Documents tell the tales of famous and stupid murders.
Connor:I see...Are you a healer?
Raven:*chuckles*I suppose I am.I've been able to mend spiritual wounds when I was younger.Now I can successfully treat more serious flesh wounds as well.I am still in training though.It requires 10 years of studying and practicing and I'm only halfway through.
Connor:That sounds like a noble and difficult career you are pursuing.You have my admiration.
Raven:*eyes widen*Uh...thank you...I guess...*looks away*
Connor:I don't know if it's everyone in this new era,or just you,but you seem like a reliable clever young woman,so I choose to let my life lead by you,here,and hope that you can bring me and the others back to our homes,soon.
Raven:*smirks*You see,I think I know how to get you back home.But it will take some time.
Connor:How much?
Raven:Before I answer,I must ask something.Was it a thunderstorm?When you were teleported here?
Connor:How did you forsee?Are you a Shaman?
Raven:*bites lip*Nothing of the sort.Just a very lucky guess.Now,if we check this unreliable weather forecast...do the calculus and examine the physics of storms and lightnings in general...
Connor:There was a powerful lightning,just before this,now that you mention it.
Raven:BRILLIANT!
Connor:What is?
Raven:I believe the next portal to your world will open in 3 months,during the next storm.
Connor:3 months...
Raven:If my prediction is correct,even a year here won't change your timeline.As in,you will be taken to the exact spot from where--from where you poofed.
Connor:*rubs his face*That is most fortunate.I had a very important mission on-going.
Raven: . . . I am aware.
Connor:Are you sure you are no Shaman?
Raven:Only emotionally.
Connor:I apologize,but I never actually got your name,yet,you knew mine,and the others'.
Raven:I am Raven.Raven Black.You could say that I'm British.And how I knew about you,I will reveal later on.There is only so much a person can take after such a time shock.
Connor:I appreciate the concern.May I call you 'Grand Shaman Kangee'?
Raven:*confused*Huh?Why is that?
Connor:*smiles*Makes it easier to blend in with the culture,I suppose.
Raven:*nods*Shaman Kangee...Kangee...That doesn't sound half-bad actually...Hoping that it's not a bad thing,I shall allow it.
Connor:You have my thanks.
Raven:Don't fret.Now,let's go back.I love my house and I wish it not to be destroyed.I trust Kim not so much with those idiots around.Especially that Frye boy.He's a troublemaker.Together with that mischievous kid,not even Evie can stop them.
Connor:I pity you,Kangee.Sounds like quite a task.
Raven:I pity myself too.Nevertheless,I shall accept your aid.
Connor:Aid?I have not offered it,have I?
Raven:You will.You stay in my house,wear clothes that I got you and feast from my money.I think that's the least you can do,seeing that you're the only reasonable one.
Connor:*sighs*I have no room to argue or decline.I will have a talk with them tonight,and explain the situation at hand,so that they won't bother you.
Raven:I appreciate it.Also,since both I and Kim are on school break,we can go on holidays.My parents were rich and had a successful company that is now under my control.So going on trips to the mountains or something will be...more intriguing.
Connor:The mountains?I think we will all enjoy it very much.
Raven:*winks*Oh,I am very sure of that.

---

Meanwhile,Kim and the rest stood stunned on the floor,after Raven's angry outburst.Kim felt quite guilty after angering her friend,so she decided to take matters into her own hands,and solve the situation with the misbehaving grown men in the room.

Kim:*clears throat*So,as we all know,Raven,the only responsible adult in this house,kinda hates us now.So uh..We have to clean this mess,and set the table,set the food on the table and all that.Umm...Can we cooperate somehow?
Jacob:Anything for you,love~.
Ezio:And they said I was the flirt!
Evie:Shut up,Jacob.
Malik:If Novice here can stop having a stick up his ass,then we can cooperate.
Altaïr:I choose to ignore that comment and believe that you are jealous of my Grand Master Assassin skills.
Malik:Nice jest,don't tell it again.
Kim:GUYS!SHUT IT!Go dress up in a different room,and help me up!
Evie:*drags Jacob by the ear*Come on,idiot,stop bothering the poor girl.
Jacob:But I'm not bothering her!She loves my jokes!
Evie:Your jokes are lame and so are you.
Jacob:*sulks*So mean...
Ezio:*gets clothes*At least I know how to make a woman happy.
Altaïr:Why must we change from our clothes?
Kim:Because...they are uncomfortable?Oh,and nobody wears these rags anymore.Also,O want to steal Jacob's coat and try it on.
Malik:*tilts head*Whatever you say.Come on,novice.
Altaïr:*scowls*

After much time passed,the Assassins changed in their modern outfits.
When they came back,they looked oddly ordinary,and somehow out of place.

Kim:*claps hands together*Okay,great!You finally look normal for our standards.Now!Let's focus on the food!
Ezio:I can help,bella ragazza~!
Kim:Don't worry,I already ordered Pizza!Mhh....Pizza...CAN'T WAIT!It will be like some badass slumber party!
Ezio:We have pizza?!That's great!Italian food is the best!
Kim:Hellz ye!
Jacob:ALL HAIL THE ASSASSIN SLUMBER PARTY!
Evie:Never thought I'd hear that...in my life.
Altaïr:Can you kids stop being so immature for ONE second?
Kim:Well MAYBE it is YOU who has to stop being to uptight BORING!
Altaïr:What did you say,wench?!
Kim:FIGHT ME,BITCH!
Malik:*laughs*Fight him!He deserves a good beating!
Ezio:That's not what happens at parties!
Jacob:Have you not seen hammered people fight in bars?
Ezio:That matters not!This is no drunken brawl,is the house of 2 young ladies that politely welcomed us in and offered to help us.
Altaïr:We don't need their help.We are Assassins.
Malik:Not in this world,mate.We can't even name 5 things from this room.
Jacob:I can!
Evie:You don't matter.
Kim:Yes,he does!
Jacob:See,sweet sister~?I matter!
Evie:Urgh...
Ezio:I smell pizza!
Kim:Oh!It arrived!

Kim paid the pizza boy,took the 2 dozens of pizza,with Ezio's help,and they started setting the table.
The girl put cans and bottles of soda and water on it,and then made the Assassins sit (im)patiently.

Kim:Now,we need only wait for Raven and Connor.
Malik:Why wait?
Ezio:Common courtesy,my friend.
Raven:Did anyone mention my name?
Ezio:Ah,our bella ragazza arrived just in time!
Raven:*nods*You guy don't look too bad in modern clothes.
Jacob:They are made for freedom of movement!
Ezio:And style!
Evie:I feel exposed...to idiocy.
Raven:*sighs*I appreciate that you at least set the table.
Kim:This calls for a PARTY!
Raven:A...what now?
Kim:Party!Party!Party!With Karaoke and games and all that!
Raven:Uhm...D-Don't you think that these guys need to rest?They may be...fatigue from the...travel.
Ezio:We are not!
Jacob:Yeah!FRESHHHH as a daisy!
Raven:*facewall*Urgh...
Kim:Are you tired,Raven?
Raven:Tsk.What gave it away?
Kim:A party is what will help you ease the stress,then!Come on,loosen up!
Raven:This will be a disaster...wait...WHY is there alcohol on the counter?
Ezio:Alcohol?
Kim:*looks away*I...dunno?
Jacob:We have alcohol!Perfect!These guys can enjoy the party if they get drunk enough!
Evie:You are bad enough as you are.Even getting tipsy will make you 25% more annoying.
Jacob:Come ooooon,sweet sister,have a little faith!Believe in me!
Evie:Sheesh.
Kim:Come on,Raven!PLEASE~!
Raven:*sighs*Sure,whatever.But don't expect much cooperation from my side...
Kim:*hugs me*Y A Y !!!Frye,Auditore,help me set everything up!
Altair:The food will go to waste if you linger much longer.
Kim:Oh...right...
Raven:We could watch a movie together while we eat...
Kim:HORROR MOVIE MARATHON!
Raven:Need I remind you that you are TERRIFIED of horror movies?
Jacob:She has me!
Kim:*eyes widen*
Raven:*smirks*Of course she does~.Very well.You guys get the food here.We will stay on the floor and watch movies on this big plasma tv.Connor,help me get some blankets and pillows.Kim,you and the twins prepare the movies.Understood?
Kim:Roger that,capt'n!
Raven:That's what I like to hear.

Raven lead Connor by the wrist to each of the mansion rooms,gathering as many blankets and pillows as they could,and dumping them on the ground.

Connor:What exactly are 'Horror movies'?
Raven:Urgh...it's an animated book,let's say.Like a theater play.And um...these kinds of movies try to scare you or bring paranoia into you.
Connor:Why would they?
Raven:*shrugs*Thrill,perhaps.I quite enjoy them myself.
Connor:Do you get scared by them?
Raven:Me?Oh,no.I am skeptical of the darkness,because of my poor sight,but horror movies don't terrify me.Kim,on the other hand...
Connor:She seems like the type to be easily scared.
Raven:It's fine.Jacob can hold her while she shakes in fear.
Connor:*tilts head*I don't quite understand that concept.
Raven:*raises a brow*You understand science stuff,but not how emotions and human psychology works?
Connor:I have never been fit to become a Shaman.I feel not the energies of the ones around me,and nor do I wish to.
Raven:*looks away*It gets so tiring...others' negative emotions drain you of any positive energy you have...
Connor:Can you not stop communicating with them?
Raven:*shakes head*It is a gift and a curse that you are born with.It never goes away.
Connor:Seems like quite the burden.
Raven:It is.But then again,I at least know that you already miss home.Being trapped between walls isn't your thing...
Connor:*eyes widen*Your shamanism powers are stronger than I imagined.
Raven:*chuckles*It's much simpler than it looks.But,Connor...while I can't get you back in your time yet,where you belong...I can only promise you frequent trips to the mountains.
Connor:And I greatly appreciate it.
Raven:At least one of you...
Connor:I am sure they all appreciate your work,even if they don't say or show it.
Raven:That's a nice positive outlook on the situation.I'll keep in mind.

As the pair walked to the living room with the acquired party gear,Kim and the Frye twins kept watching horror movie trailers on Youtube,while Evie was looking annoyed at their childishness,but was watching attentively and intrigued as well.The twins have quite the love for the supernatural,so they might enjoy ghost films a lot.
Ezio and the 2 Arabs brought and set the food,and we sat down,on the comfy blankets,munching and enjoying the movie.

I and Connor sat at the end,leaning on the sofa.Next was Altaïr,trying to block Kim's poking attacks,then Jacob,who kept giggling and imitating Kim,but poking Evie.The poor girl,who was seconds away from slapping her twin into oblivion.And then,Ezio,who was enjoying his native cuisine,and Malik who was watching attentively.

Altaïr:I'm trying NOT to kill you right now,but you're not making my job easy,pest!
Kim:*pokes cheek*Shut up,novice*pokes rib*
Altair:Why do you insist on poking me?
Kim:No reason.It's just fun bugging you~!
Raven:*coughs*She's afraid of the movie.
Altair:*smirks*Blackmail material.
Kim:RAVEEEEN!WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!
Raven:*smirks*If only there was someone brave and kind to soothe your fears away...
Jacob:And there is!*puts a protective arm over Kim*My lady shall not be petrified of mere animation!Not on my watch!
Kim:*blushes**mutters*My hero...
Raven:*coos*How very adorable~.
Kim:Shut it..
Raven:Jacob,look how flustered your maiden fair is.Please do take care of her.
Jacob:*winks*You know I will!
Evie:*sighs*Right..
Malik:People,shut up!The film is intriguing!
Ezio:Don't be upsetti,my friend!Have some spaghetti!
Raven:But we only have pizza here-.
Ezio:*pouts*But the rhyme was nice.
Raven:*nods*T'was~.

Throughout the movie,Jacob kept Kimi close to his chest,while she tried (and failed) to keep brave...but in reality,she buried her face in his chest and he was chuckling,petting her hair,reassuringly.
Raven,however,was feeling tired and drowsy for the long day,and nodded off on Connor's shoulder,sleeping peacefully.

At the end of the movie,the food was devoured and the watchers were (mostly) fascinated.Mostly,because Altair thought it was dull,and Raven was sleeping.

Kim:Ah,what a fine movie!Let's watch another one!
Jacob:Oh yeah,baby!More ghosts!
Evie:And Poltergeists!
Ezio:It was entertaining!Who thought those people in boxes could be so fun to watch!
Malik:There aren't real people in that device,young one.I believe they called it.. a Tee Vee?
Ezio:Oh,si,you're right!
Kim:TV.And yeah,not real people INSIDE it.
Altair:Try to choose something more entertaining.
Jacob:Shut uuup,it was fine!
Kim:Better watch a comedy!
Connor:*shushes them*Please do keep quiet.One of our little hosts was feeling fatigue and she fell asleep.
Jacob:*smirks*On your shoulder.
Kim:*takes pic*Awww~!How cute!
Connor:*tilts head*What is?
Kim:The two of you,of course!
Connor:I don't believe I can be considered 'cute',but she,is another story.
Evie:Why don't you put her to bed?She might feel more comfortable upon waking up.Plus,we also need rest,after such a peculiar day.
Ezio:*stretches*I agree.A little sleep never killed anyone.
Connor:*nods*Very well.I bid you good night,and see you when we shall break our fast.

They bid each other good night,and Connor picked Raven up bridal style.
However,he didn't know which was her room,so he let her sleep in the room appointed to him,while he slept on the comfy couch.

Kim,on the other hand,was still a ball of energy,so she suggested to a hyperactive Jacob to teach him how video games work,so he gave her a piggy back ride,and started learning about the art of Games.
