	By 30 July 1964, Pash was forced to end the project due to his experiments on [[Julia Gorm]] going awry and causing the Assassin to be imprinted with the [[Genetic memory\|genetic memories]] of her late father, [[Eddie Gorm]]. Believing herself to be Eddie, Julia sought to kill Pash, who escaped alongside his pregnant lover [[Zenia]] and [[Doni]] and left the remaining members of the Bloodstone Unit to destroy their base in [[Hòn Mê]] and burn all the evidence related to their clandestine operations and Project BLUEBIRD's existence.<ref name="Bloodstone 2">''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodstone]] – [[Assassin's Creed: Bloodstone Book 2\|Book 2]]''</ref>		By 30 July 1964, Pash was forced to end the project due to his experiments on [[Julia Gorm]] going awry and causing the Assassin to be imprinted with the [[Genetic memory\|genetic memories]] of her late father, [[Eddie Gorm]].

	Simultaneously, [[Alekseï Gavrani]], a former member of the unit, tracked down Pash in order to retrieve his [[Apple of Eden 4\|Apple of Eden]] and prevent him from further corrupting [[the Creed]]. After catching up with Pash and the others in [[Ninh Bình]], they reached an agreement, where Gavrani promised to protect the group ~~from Julia~~ in exchange for the Apple. However, Julia killed Gavrani and Doni and injured Zenia, forcing Pash to contact the Assassin and CIA director [[William King Harvey]] for help.<ref name="Bloodstone 2"/>		Simultaneously, [[Alekseï Gavrani]], a former member of the unit, tracked down Pash in order to retrieve his [[Apple of Eden 4\|Apple of Eden]] and prevent him from further corrupting [[the Creed]].

	Aboard the [[USS Maddox\|USS ''Maddox'']], Harvey's men treated Julia and helped Zenia deliver her and Pash's infant daughter, [[Nathalie Chapman]], though Zenia died from her injuries shortly after. Harvey then revealed himself as a [[Templars\|Templar]] double agent and, using Nathalie's life as leverage, forced Pash to hand over his Apple and all of his Project BLUEBIRD research to the Templar scientist [[Warren Vidic]]. This research would subsequently play an important role in the early development stages of the [[Animus]].<ref name="Bloodstone 2"/>		Aboard the [[USS Maddox\|USS ''Maddox'']], Harvey's men treated Julia and helped Zenia deliver her and Pash's infant daughter, [[Nathalie Chapman]], though Zenia died from her injuries shortly after.
