Something I don't understand about Assassin's Creed

As of last night, I've played both of the major games three times through. One thing I don't understand though, is how the target & the assassin find the time to have a two minute conversation amongst the massing amounts of city guards and the people who are running away from you. In spite of that, your target needs to have already been assassinated, yet they still have the ability to speak. Maybe this is just some plot device that I'm taking too literally, but I demand answers.

He's a trained Assassin. He know how to stab someone without killing them. Its called disabling.

I was thinking the same thing,,,

I mean after you jump on this dude in the middle of a butt load of guards, you and the target have a talk about the facts of life or sumthing...

But it might just be the target's final thoughts being displayed... idk

Its not a flaw, its fiction and a video game; there is rarely anything realistic about games. I would think jumping 200ft into a bale of hay and someone reliving their ancestors memories through a machine or the fact that when you die in a video game, you just get right back up would have taught everyone that. I would think over the years, people would have learned to suspend disbelief. Sepewrath

Too bad games portray life to it's fullest extent, huh?
