The Hit is a quest in Fable II that becomes active after you leave from the Spire.

Assassins will attack you in a few regions and you have to kill groups of them to receive different parts of a map to the Highwayman's Guild. The first group is usually found near the Rookridge Inn. Once you get all parts of the map, you will be led to the Forsaken Fortress. Here, you will have to fight a group of highwaymen and then defeat their leader, Darius Zing.
