He was in company with another man Robert LaGouze a Frenchman who sometimes came to visit the plantation. James hated to die for his master wanted to kill him. At age 15, Hiram sold James to the governor of Port-au-Prince, Pierre de Fayet. James could not even say goodbye to his parents, but he promised himself that one day and kill Hiram Johnson would return. James was transferred to Port-au-Prince directly into the governor's seal. Its name was changed to Jacques and he had to adapt. If Hiram was a brutal and violent master Pierre was even longer. Pierre was working slaves all day and some of them died as well.

The gunman went where it was Jacques but the darkness he could not see it well, and Jacques had the element of surprise. The man was at one meter from Jacques. Jacques left his refuge and punched him in the face to man. The guard remained dazed and Jacques took advantage, he snatched the gun from his hands and then stabbed him in the chest with his bayonet.

There he was greeted by their boss Augustin Dieufort with happy benevolence that Jacques would be another warrior for their cause. The months passed in training and combat, typically of the Maroons in both the sword, or knife or machete. Jacques was both three weapons expert so he decided to use them all in his arsenal future beyond a pair of flintlock pistols. Jacques later took the surname of de la Noire, because of his skin color to challenge the French slaveholders. In fact, the Maroons were planning to set off a revolution in Haiti. The next eight years of the life of Jacques passed in which he and his other companions Maroons freed many plantations and slaves could in their best.

It had been years waiting for that moment. Jacques with a ship of the Maroons and many warriors sailed for Matanzas and arrived there on June 2nd 1745. Jacques went ashore with other warriors, they were dressed like French slaveholders and spoke with the 5 guards who came. Jacques said in French that were there to sell slaves. The captain was answering something. Jacques took his sword and planted him in the stomach, took his gun and shot him in the head to another slave. The Maroons killed the other three slavers and then raided the plantation, killing all who were slaveholders. No mercy for those bastards. Jacques with his sword killed 5 slavers and then along with other 7 maroons went right into the residence of Hiram Johnson. In the residence there were the real Johnson guards. The guards were 10 and were on the attack. Jacques cut the side to adjust and then designated the weapon on the chest of another.
His maroons killed the other in a hurry as they were driven by anger and unstoppable. Jacques entered the house by breaking the door and asked a servant where it was Johnson. The servant said he was upstairs. While the maroons freed the slaves of the plantation, Jacques went up until Johnson's room, where he found himself. Jacques took his gun and asked if Hiram recognize him. Hiram scared said no, Hiram took a sword from nowhere and pounced on Jacques. Jacques avoided the attack and shot him in the leg of Hiram.

Carlo Antonelli
Jacques spent a lot of time to work out in the free running, pickpocketing, combat, stealth and other techniques. Him when he began training had already 27 years so for 30 years would have ended for good. Jacques was very good at stealth and preferred to act in that way rather than enter the fray but if he had to do had no hesitation. Jacques became a formidable swordsman trained in New Orleans, Haiti and then to Tulum by Claude Dimanche. Finally on December 1749 he had taken place his very first official mission that would have introduced into the Brotherhood. His job was to infiltrate the palace of Portobelo and kill an Italian commander affiliated with the Templars Carlo Antonelli, a cousin of Juan Antonelli. Carlo Antonelli had come from Italy to America and had been trained as a hunter of Assassins for Caribbean Templars. It had to be stopped at all costs. Jacques would have to infiltrate during a Templar-ball and kill him. On the appointed day, Jacques arrived in Portobelo that was in turmoil for the feast of the patron saint of the city. Jacques with his outfit from Assassin walked the streets of the city with the cap placed on the head, and every time they passed the guards he avoided. Jacques arrived at the palace gates. He saw how the guards were only invited to enter their carriages, Jacques studied a plan to find an entry. He turned for several minutes around the palace and eventually found an open window. He climbed up the building to enter it from the window. Jacques went into a room where there was no one at that time and was happy, Jacques hid behind the door and entered a guest. Jacques stabbed him in the chest and deposited him on the ground. Jacques closed the door and changed his clothes but kept the door closed. The guest who had killed had to be a soldier because he had a red jacket of Royal Navy. Jacques put the corpse in a closet, and then closed the closet so as not to find the body. Jacques then left the room and went to join the party. He noticed how everyone was busy talking to each other. Jacques spoke with other guests and said his name was John Grey a captain in the British navy. So Jacques went unnoticed for the whole party. But at some point Jacques saw a man in armor and in red dress. That was Carlo Antonelli. He was standing with his sword at his side and was talking with two of his bodyguards. Carlo looked around among the guests and then went away. Jacques unseen followed him through the crowd of guests up in the garden. There, Carlo was joined by another man Jacques recognized as Eugiène Blaise. The two Templars talked to each other and after a while 'But Eugiène went right from the party, Jacques saw him get out of the gate on his carriage. At that time Charles was alone and aloof. Jacques came out of his hiding place and walked toward him with air to do nothing. Carlo even spared Jacques. Jacques when he was behind Carlo snapped his blade concealed and buried in the back of Carlo. Carlo moaned in pain from the wound and Jacques deposited him gently to the ground and closed his eyes as it breathed her last. Jacques wished he had showed his presence to make a fair fight, but it was too late. Jacques he heard voices on the other side and ran away from the scene of the crime to climb over the wall and run away from the party. Jacques then went back to the lair of the Assassins. He was officially inducted into the Brotherhood from Mentor Claude Dimanche.

That was Magdeleine. Jacques walked towards Magdeleine and she shouted something. Jacques was about to kill Magdeline but then he heard the click of a gun. Jacques felt 'that there was a man behind him who was pointing the gun at his head. "Stop right there or I'll kill you," the man said. Jacques raised his hands and sheathed concealed blades. The man grabbed him by the wrist and shifted the gun. Jacques flicked your hidden blades, took off from the trajectory of the gun, and then inflicted knife concealed the man's head. Jacques turned to Magdeleine and saw her running up the stairs screaming for help to other servants. Jacques decided that he would not kill other servants if not stun them. As he climbed the stairs he was against a boy of about 15 years. Jacques grabbed him regardless, and threw it away from the stairs, the boy fell to the ground stunned. Jacques arrived at the top of the stairs and saw Magdeleine run into his room through the right corridor and left was a woman of about 30 years and the other side another woman about 24 years. Both armed with a knife. The 30 year-old tried to stab Jacques but he dodged the blow and grabbed his arm bringing it behind her back. The woman screamed and dropped the knife.

It gives the 30 years he was recovering and seemed frightened at the sight of Jacques. Jacques realized that those were allies of the Templars and could not leave them alive, or otherwise would have been possible murder witnesses. Jacques was fighting to kill them if the Assassins or let them live for consciousness. The first prevailed. Jacques spent his time to trace the Templars who have operated in the shadows of the Caribbean Sea during the Seven Years War. After arriving in Kingston in 1760 he had spent the last five years in the field of education and defend Havana for more plots Templars - Jacques knew that Victor Jensen was the new manager of Kingston.
