Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter. The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 3 No Turning Back now)
(Chapter 3: No Turning Back)
I walk down the street of Tuadmuma… there’s not a single bit of life around.
The sky was covered in gravy clouds while the ground was covered in some type of red liquid.
I continued walking not knowing where I was going.
I continued walking until I turned a corner…
This particular was the wall. The wall looks completely untouched like a battle didn’t happen.
I walk over to see what I could find on the other side of the wall… I wish I hadn’t.
On the other side or mountains of dead bodies of Goblins. The red liquid seem to be higher due to the fact some of the bodies were floating on it. It looks like a red sea and the bodies were islands.
I then felt something grab my leg. I jump from the touch and look down. What I saw horrified me… Young looking Viking tank man, maybe in his 20s was looking up at me covered in arrows and coats.
“Why did you let me die” said the Viking tank.
I couldn’t say anything so I look the way. I looked at the ones quiet Tuadmuma city… that is now on fire!
Screams men, women and children echoed through the sky! The ones Plainfield was not covered in hundreds of human bodies! It started raining fire setting more things ablaze!
“Why did you let all of us die” this time the voice came from the sky!
One by one human bodies would get up and start walking over to me! Many were missing limbs and some didn’t even have a head!
They started circling around me, each of them grabbing me! They started chanting at once!
“Why did you let us die! why did you let us die!! why did you!!!-“(Kuboom) and the world was back to normal.
I looked around to be sure... but there was no one in site.
Certainly I felt the urge to turn around and so I did.
When I had turned around I thought I was looking in the mirror until I focussed.
This copy cat had its eyes close, its tips of its ears and tail were red, its weapons were also red.
I had a strange feeling that we were the same... but yet... different…
I tried to say something but it felt like my mouth was glued shut.
Then it opened its eyes… it’s freakishly red glowing eyes… it felt like it was looking at my soul… judging me. Eventually the imposter started walking to me. Eventually we were 2 feet apart.
I then remember this was the thing I turned into… that… Monster!
When I was that thing all I could think about was killing the target. I felt cold and dark… I couldn’t stop smashing that guy’s body into pieces.
I then felt afraid… very afraid…
It’s hand then reached out and grabbed a hold of mine. I was too scared to even move.
It open my hand and placed a Key in my hand.
“Find the fire key” was the last thing I heard before blacking out.

“Ahh!” I woke up with a screen. I was sitting up in a comfortable bed with once again more bandages around me.
I think a couple of deep breaths and finally relax “it’s only a nightmare” I told myself… something of it felt so real.
I smack myself in the head mentally for thinking of such a stupid idea. It can’t be real? Right?
(sigh) I worry about it later…
I get up out of bed and noticing I was perfectly fine? So why do I have the bandages around me?
I decided to search the bandages by using my magic and it turns out they’re enchanted. For some reason the bandages were restoring my loss magic.
(knock) (knock) (knock)
I look at the door across the room. “Come in!” I shout.
The door opens and reveals Ea on the other side. “Oh good you’re awake!” He says with joy. “You were out for three days”
I looked at him “Three… Three Fucking Days!” I shouted.
“Yes” he says calmly
“Oh no! are we OK! Has there been another attack! Are we under attack now! How is Eric, is he all right!” I keep shooting more questions for the next minute.
“Lord Doom you must calm down! you are in no condition to get up and walk around!” He shouted at me.
“Calm down... Calm down! I nearly lost all my men and you’re telling me to-“ (Cough) (grown) I was stopped by a cough. I covered my mouth with my hand before I did so, and when I looked at it again it was covered in blood. “The... Fuc…..” I felt really weak.
“This is what I’m talking about. Do you not know about your own kind!” He said jokingly, but when he saw my face he knew I didn’t. “That explains it” he said quietly. “Please lay down.”
I was too weak to argue so I just did what he said.
“I was able to find a book about foxes.” he started. “It was in the mythological section of the library” well that hurts “but I was able to find a fact that explains why you’re in this condition… It turns out Foxes can use magic like unicorns and goblins and other creatures… The only differences the foxes can learn any magical spell with ease… There’s one problem though… If a unicorn or goblin would run out of the magic it would take a few hours to regain that lost magic… But if a fox would lose all of its magic… Let’s just say this is the biggest miracle in fox history.”

I spent the next week resting and taking medication to regain my magic.
I learned of news that the kingdom of Tuadmuma is not the only one being attacked.
Both of the kingdoms Hlymrekr to the east and Connacht to the north is under attack.
I realize that if we don’t do something we will be all alone again with a force of three kingdoms at us.
So me and Ea have decided on a plan. It took him a long time to convince him but I was able to.
Ea Will lead his army to the east at the kingdom hlymrekr. These two kingdoms are bitter rivals so I’m hoping with the aid of the kingdom Tuadmuma Will bring these kingdoms closer together.
I on the other hand will be travelling to the kingdom of Connacht. The south part of Connacht it’s covered in a thick forest nearly impossible for an army to move fast enough. But a one-man army would be able to pass the thick forest without any problems.
I was going alone… unfortunately we don’t have a big enough army to split it in half… and even if we did the forest would slow us down immensely.
So before I go off I was learning everything I can about my enemy and wrote it down.
Aileach a kingdom of Orcs:
Armies: 2
Average amount of soldiers in each army: 750
Friends: Mide a kingdom of Goblins (are the vassal of this kingdom)
Enemies: Connacht a kingdom of Orcs.
Currently: The kingdom of Aileach is attacking two enemies, Connacht and Ulaid. With the two enemies on each side of the kingdom it is unknown who will win.
Banner: A black hand with a white background
Osraige a kingdom of Goblins:
Armies: 1
Average amount of soldiers in each army: 670
Friends: Mide a kingdom of Goblins (are the vassal of this kingdom)
Enemies: Connacht a kingdom of Orcs.
Currently: The kingdom of Osraige’s King is the brother of the (know headless) King of Mide. They are attacking the kingdom of Hlymrekr.
Banner: A black deer laying down with a yellow background
Mide a kingdom of Goblins:
Armies: 0
Average amount of soldiers in each army: 0
Friends: Osraige a Goblin Kingdom and Aileach a Orc kingdom
Enemies: Connacht a kingdom of Orcs.
Currently: The kingdom of Mide was supposed to attack and destroy the kingdom of Tuadmuma. That way both kingdoms of Hlymrekr and Connacht Will not be able to support each other.
This did not work and let the king headless and his army destroyed.
Now the king has to rebuild the lost army and is preparing to be attacked.
Banner: A black deer jumping through the air with a yellow background
After I’m done writing I slip into a bag and went off to grab my gear.
I was given my black leather armour, Miami mysteriously made weapons and several magic regeneration potions to make sure I don’t die.

I am now at the gate of the city. The gate opens up and to my shock and relief... their Stands Eric.
I quickly walked down and give him a hug. He still lost a lot of blood during the fighting and was knocked out most of the time we have been resting. He was in his iron armour along with his sword on his right hip. But the question is why is he here?
I let go of the hug and say “Eric! Why are you here!? I thought you were still knocked out!?”
“I was knocked out for a little bit but was able to wake up before you left” he starts. “do you really think I would let you go on this adventure alone?”
“No Eric it’s too dangerous and your right hand and eye is gone.” I said
“Sir… I swore months ago, my loyalty and my strength to my last dying breath… I did not become Second Lieutenant by not going into battle and right now I’m still breathing“ he said while standing up straight.
I look at him… “do you have a Deathwish, or do you have bravery?... Because right now it’s hard to tell… come on you fool… and thanks for coming with me.”
“The pleasure is all mine” he responded.
We walked and were surprised there’s not a single body insight.
When I was resting I learned that we were facing enemy of 1784. I thought we were only able to kill around 300 but it turns out we killed around 1000 and 500.
After about an hour we start up a conversation.
“I have decided to make you my disciple.” I started
“You’re what?” he says confused.
“You are going to be my disciple along with earning the rank of captain. You earned the rank of captain because of your bravery on the battlefield… but you earned to be my disciple through loyalty.”
“I realized that if I were to die Green Flame would have not have known for months. If I were to die sadness would strike across the kingdom and that cannot happen in a time like this.”
“That’s why I am going to start with the “disciples”. The disciples will be followers of me. I disciple has to be kind loyal and generous. When I die the disciples will be in charge until my children become ready to rule.”
“I remember many times many areas would destroy their kingdoms because of a choice that they made. Now with the disciples the kingdom will be safe.”
“I disciple will be chosen by my choosing and my choosing alone. They will also be the first to know of my plans and what I should do.”
“And finally I disciple have more rights than any noble… and you are my first disciple along with many others do I have in mind”
…
“Well then it’s an honour your majesty” he says giving a little bow on the walk.

A week passes by as we venture through Forests mountains and a little swamp. We passed by A ton of animals I haven’t seen. There are regular animals and then there’s animals that are on fire and act like it’s normal. Bears birds even a few plants.
I try to figure the logic... but I can’t… it just hurts my head too much.
But finally we have arrived to the capital… and it’s under attack… go fucking figure…
We’re standing on a mountain and Aileach is attacking from the right while the kingdom of Connacht is to the left.
The kingdom looks like it has two stone walls and the first one has already been breached. Luckily each wall had a moat.
I grab Eric and quickly teleport inside… and were instantly surrounded by spears And bows of the Connacht guards.
“Hey we come in peace… we’re here to help!” I shout.
“Who are you?” Says an orc with a golden crown on top of the second wall. He pulls out a scroll. “It says here Tuadmuma was sending reinforcements… so where are they!”
“We are the reinforcements I shout!”
He disappears from moment and quietly says “are they fucking serious“ he looks back at us “well reinforcements why don’t you lead us?” He says sarcastically.
“Gladly” I said shocking him. His men lower their spears and let us pass. Me and Eric make away to the front and he asks me “why are we going first?” And I reply “to show them that we mean business… and besides there’s no turning back now” The drawbridge lowers as the final push to take back the city is on.
I surprised everyone by running out before the drawbridge is even a 10th of the way open. I climb up the drawbridge and jump into the crowd of the orcs.
The orcs are more advance then the goblins I faced over a weeks ago. The orcs were taller stronger and had iron armour… but my sword was sharper and stronger.
Like the goblins I began quickly cutting them down seven at a time. Any attempt to swing at me was broken by my sword. They were treated a little bit away and that’s when the drawbridge finally went down.
The first wall was only protecting a temple and the docking area… it seems like the first wall was made only to be as offensive area instead of having the public live there.
I was soon out of my trance when my allies were running forward.
I got back in the fray of the battle and was quickly turning the tide, but the problem is they keep coming.
I look over to the left at temple and noticed that the enemy was coming from inside. The temple was built into the mountain which would make it easy to dig through and get past the first wall. The docks were also overrun by a few ships.
I look around the battlefield to find Eric and this time is doing fine in the battle. I run up at him and yell “ Eric! Find as many willing Orcs as you can and get those docks under control! I’m gonna try to get the temple sealed up!” He nodded gose to do his objective.
I quickly sprint to the temple and chop down anyone who gets in my way.
Finally I make it to the stairs of the temple and a Orc tries to jump on me. But I quickly grab him by the throat and throw him at his comrades.
I grab a broken spear and threw it into a shoulder of an orc Archer.
I finally get to the top in their stands a huge Orc standing at 15 feet tall.
He is standing in front of the Doors to the temple. Other Orcs try to rush me but we’re stopped by him. “No!” he shouts “this one is mine!” The air was still. The battle sounded like it was hundreds of miles away. “What is your name?” he says.
I was a little shocked “...Alexander Doom… King of man” I finally say.
“Alexander Doom… so you are the one who Killed King Levine“
“Yes I am, how did you know?”
“Reports say that a fox like creature was the one who killed him… you know... I never asked for this… oh my life I want to settle down... meet a cute girl… and serve the king… but now the King is dead and his nephew is in charge. No I’m Dragon to this bloody war that I have nothing to do with… I thought I would be fine with seeing you fight guaranteed me no chance… so if I am going to die today I will die in an honourable duel!” He finishes as he gets ready to fight with a giant mace.
“If it’s a honourable duel you want… then you’re a honourable duel you Will get.” I say as I get into my fighting position.
He swings his mace and I roll underneath. I quickly get back up and elbow him in the gut.
He falls to the ground kneeling before me. That Orcs are shocked how easily I brought him to his knees.
For time we just stared at each other. My sword it was inches from his neck… I lower my sword “what is your name?”
“I am Gabe” he says.
“Well then Gabe” I grab his 10 foot mace. “Will you fight for me“ he looked confused. “You are against a your king it only makes sense to join me.”
He looks at his mace then grabs it. “Hey Gabe what are you-” the random Orc didn’t get to finish as Gabe swung his maze and killed 15 orcs in one powerful swing.
“Go your majesty” he says. “I will take care of the temple, you must focus on Carcass. Carcass is a dangerous foe but she has no match for you.” He then runs in the temple.
I turn my head back to the battlefield. At the docks I can see Eric and the Orcs lighting up the ships.
The battle is now a stalemate. Neither side was losing ground or gaining ground. The enemy has station themselves on the first wall and are firing arrows into our allies.
(Twang) and a bolt nearly hit my face and planted itself in a stone pillar! The bolt had to be 20 inches long and was in the wall 5 inches.
I look to the shooter and saw him on a makeshift tower. He was on some sort of device so I quickly teleported to him and said “it’s not nice to shoot people” he instantly turned around but was too late as my sword went across his chest.
I grab the device and Amy at the first wall. When I shot it I feel a little kick from it. The first arrow hit its target and made him fly off to the other end of the wall. I did not stop until all the archers were off the wall.
When I turn back to the battlefield I noticed that we were winning. I jumped down from the tower and began to attack from the rear. With the men back from the docks and Gabe back from the temple, it was only a matter of time before the enemy was destroyed.
“RRRAAAAHHHHHH” I heard a scream for behind me. I turned around nursing 8 foot Orc was the one who is screaming. ‘this must be carcass’ I thought to myself.
“ALEX I KNOW YOU ARE BEHIND THIS!!! COME OUT AND FACE ME!!!” Carcass shouted.
“I’m right here you dumbass, you don’t need to yell. And how the hell did you get my name?” I say as I walk up to her.
She yanks a spear out of her own fallen comrade without a care in the world. We eventually come face-to-face. The fighting has stopped and odds are they lost.
“One of my men reported to me that Gabe has join the ‘Human’ king Alex. But why would he join you you look pathetic and weak.” She says with venom.
“Let’s... find... out…” I throw my sword to the ground and crack my knuckles. I use my right hand to give the jester ”come at me”.
And come at me she did. She dashed at me trying to get a quick hit with her spear.
I quickly sidestepped to the right and elbowed her in the ribs. “that’s three ribs” I say.
She didn’t care and rushed at me again. I quickly side step and hit her right arm. “That’s an arm”
And once again she rest me with only her left arm intact.
This time I jump 15 feet in the air and land on her shoulders.
With the weight of me the height of the fall and a bit of magic I broke most of The bones in her body and killed her. Bones were sticking out everywhere even her spine that was now split in half.
After that show the enemy was in full retreat.
Good guys 2 bad guys 0.
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 4 The Campaign Of Connacht
Author's Note
Sorry I haven’t posted in a while I am currently working on two stories and helping a friend with another one. So I decided to take a break and now I’m back.
(Chapter 4 The Campaign Of Connacht
(The campaign of Connacht)
It’s been three hours since the battle. In Oro tradition they will burn the bodies instead of bearing them.
We were outside of the first gate just looking up on the piles of ashes.
To my left was Eric into my right was Gabe. Currently I was reading a letter I got just recently through magic.
Dear Lord Doom
I would like to assure you that the kingdom of Hlymrekr is safe and Its enemies scattered.
I was able to meet up with king Unitas and was successful in making you another vessel.
From Ea
I smiled and wrote back.
Dear Ea
That is wonderful news and I would like to say I was able to defend Connacht from being captured. So far the enemy was able to capture every settlement besides the capital. So before we can assist you we have to take back Connacht.
It shouldn’t take more than a week or two so try to hold on.
From your Lord, Lord Doom
And used a spell to send it back.
“Are... you... Lord of “Doum” said an orc in front of me.
“Yes I am Lord. Doom.” I said correcting him.
“Ahh... Sorry… not good... with... other languages... than... blacks speech” he told me.
“It’s fine... what do you need” I said cheerfully.
“King... say... bring him... to you… No! you... to him!” I just nodded my head so he wouldn’t have to struggle with speaking.
We followed him through the first then to the second gate and then finally the city.
I was surprised to find out most of the city was built “into” the mountain, instead of just being around it. There are all sorts of Orcs everywhere. There are buildings on ground level build all the way to the top of the ceiling and probably into it. They had to be at least 50 metres high. The mountain that were in is 250 metres high. Everything was made out of stone single piece of wood.
We eventually got to a third wall that was surrounding what I assumed was the palace.
The third walls gates open up to reveal the king of Connacht this time without any armour.
As soon as we were 3 feet apart we both bowed respectfully and greeted each other.
“Greetings I’m guessing you are lord doom” he said.
“That is correct and you are...” I said not knowing his name.
“I am king Oscar... now let me start off by saying I am sorry for the way I treated you when I first met you” he said while giving a bow.
“It’s no problem... you had no idea the power that we had” I said reassuring.
“Well either way thank you for forgiving me… now onto more important business re-taking my kingdom. Because of your help in defending my country I feel guilty asking you to help me more” I just nodded and said “that’s why we’re here”
“Thank you, now if you follow me” we followed him into the palace and after three minutes of walking we finally made it to a planning room.
There was a Iron table with a radius of a metre in the middle of the room surrounded by chairs. The entire room was made out of iron.
When we got closer to the table it turned out to be a 3D map of Britannia. The map look to be made out of stone with a table being made of iron.
Oscar lit up a few lamps so it was easier to see around the room.
Oscar took a seat at the the table while me and Eric sat at the other side, Gabe just took a knee.
“So we are here” Oscar said as he pointed to the of our exact location. “The enemy was scattered after their defeat. Before coming to my capital they took over two towns and two minds. Considering I don’t know what’s going on with the outside world I thought you can tell me where we should go.”
I looked at the map and after a while I had an idea.
“Well I see the best option is to split up. You take your army and liberate anything to the South and the south-east. Me, Eric and Gabe would head to the East and north-east.”
“You are not the only one being invaded right now. You, Tuadmuma and Hlymrekr are also being attacked. Luckily I was given a message that the enemy was pushed back.” I said giving him I plan
“Already then, is there anything else you need?” I took a second to think.
“Only two things. First do you have a ballista. Second are you willing to become a vassal of mine.” Oscar became silent for a minute or two. then he finally spoke.
He first looks to Eric “Son I see how you fight, I don’t think I can name 10 of my own soldiers who are better than you.” He then looks to Gabe. Gabe I cannot forgive you for invading my home… but I can forgive you for trying to save it” thank you was all he gotten reply. “finally we do have a couple of ballistas. But they are only prototypes. Why? And if I am to become your vassal how strong is your army?” He finished.
“When my arm he comes here… The enemy will have no chance. And for the ballista… well…”
xxxxxxxxxx
About 15 to 20 minutes later we were past the first gate. The road wasn’t the greatest considering it was only 1 m wide especially for a 15 feet tall Orc giant. But the trees look nice as we walked through.
The wind had a nice breeze to it as if there wasn’t a battle hours before. It’s going to be a couple days until we get to the next town, and that’s not adding the mine that we have to clear out. In all in all we need this.
I had my mask lowered because I was using my magic to check if there is any enemy scouts.
Eric was in his full suit of armour and had equipped a crossbow for his long range attacks. That got me thinking and I soon as I get home everyone in the army is going to have a long range weapon and a melee weapon.
Gay was able to find some armour and put it on him but it probably won’t do much. Who’s able to find a lot of rope so that he can hold his medicine without using his arms because they were hoping something else… The fucking ballista! I was able to use my magic real quick to make it more like a giant crossbow then a ballista, The point is its scary as fuck!
xxxxxxxxxx
It’s been three days and we’re about Half an hour away from the Town. During that time my magic is starting to run low even with all of the potions. Due to me having a sensor on, to detect nearby enemies was not the smartest move since I didn’t get to use it at all… at least we know we were safe.
I’m down to my last potion so I’m going to have to use it wisely.
But suddenly I felt something with my magic. It was too big to be a critter but too small to be one of those fire bears.
“Guys I got something” I say quickly but quietly.
They both nod and follow me through the woods.
Eventually we make it through another road and what seem to be five Orcs pulling a carriage to the town. My first thought they were Friendly’s but after noticing their banner was a black hand with a white background I knew they were the enemy.
I pulled out my bow and give a nod saying it’s OK to fire.
The first shot was Gabes. He shot at two obliterating them both and knocking down one.
Me and Eric fired at the same time both eliminating our targets.
The last one got back up and rush towards us with a sword. I rush forward as well, but just before we make contact I step to the side and kick him in the ribs.
His body speed off like a rocket towards the tree. When his body makes contact have of him is obliterated. The tree then falls down towards me and I catch it and gently set it down to not cause any more noise.
One last time I use my magic to check the area and were in the clear.
“Alright guys, we’re good” they come out from the trees and I was surprised to see Gabe was actually heading well.
We go over to check the carriage and it was completely filled with armour ammunition and food. Most of it looks pretty brand new.
“It’s a good thing they didn’t get this” Eric comments.
Start looking at the carriage and get a wicked grin on my face. Eric and gabe notice it to.
“Oh no... I know that look” Eric says worried.
“What this face no, you see we’re going to give them this stuff.” With my statement they both are confuse.
xxxxxxxxxx
Ever since the defeat at Connacht we were scattered. Only 15 of my group were able to make it back to this town in one piece. Luckily there is already 50 other is guarding the populace.
With our group ranging at 65 we set up the fences as best we could in two hours waiting for a force to hit us hard. Well those hours became days. And in the meantime we were at 94 men and a very strong defence.
Right now I was on one of the three towers guarding the town. Our orders are clear “Defend the town to your last dying breath.”
But still no army has yet to come… but we noticed that a carriage to resupply us has not yet arrived.
Then I start noticing that shadow was booming over me. I look up to see an object… is that… carriage!? (Smash)
xxxxxxxxxx
After seeing the carriage smash into a tower directly I was ready to celebrate. Unfortunately I couldn’t since were in the middle of a battle.
After the carriage landed they were scattering all over the place to see where it came from. I take my name and start firing one after another.
Eventually they realize where the shots are coming from and fire back. They get behind terrible makeshift walls that were easily torn down as soon as the ballista fired.
Eric wasn’t doing so good since he only had one hand to fire the crossbow but he was still hitting them.
It went like this for about an hour until we finally saw the white flag. Just to be sure I use my magic to get a closer look to make sure that there’s no black hand. I tell my Friends to cease fire and we slowly walk out.
I could see that there is probably only a dozen more Orc left. The town’s folks started leaving the house is as soon as the fighting stopped.
The people look at us with fear and caution.
I slowly walk up and grabbed the white flag turning it into the Connacht banner and placing it down while yelling. “This land belongs to Connacht once again!” And The entire town cheered.
xxxxxxxxxx
Two days have passed since we liberated the town. We need a proper rest and make sure that the enemy will not be coming back here for a while.
The townspeople praise us with gIfts and food.
The towns people told us that the mine was only a day away and that the workers have been working there nonstop.
So as much as I want to stay and get washed in the glory... my work isn’t done.
So as we walked down the familiar road Eric and Gabe seem to be talking a lot more. At least they’re getting along.
Unfortunately I will not be able to use my sensor considering it cost too much magic which I might need.
xxxxxxxxxx
Finally we have seem to arrive at the mine. I tell Gabe to wait at the front entrance in case any of them get out and considering he only has one last bolt.
Me and Eric go in as stealthily as we can and take out any guards silently not cause attention.
Finally we seem to have made it to the main area of the mine. I could see around 50 to 75 miners and about 25 guards.
First I take anyone who is in high ground. Next I take out any stragglers who got too far from the group.
Now there’s only 15. I put about 5% of my magic in a little fireball and launch it add a group of seven. The fireball a rough did bigger than I thought and easily engulfed them in flames.
Me and Eric start firing away and they start retreat. Unfortunately for them only two were able to get away from us, And a few seconds later we could hear a loud smash!
Me and Eric instantly go to help the workers set themselves free. It was a slow process and tell Gabe got in and helped out as well.
As soon as they were all free they instantly got up grab whatever food and water they can and went back to the town.
Me Eric and Gabe huddle around for phase 2. After we freed the town and mine we are to teleport back to Tuadmuma. My last thought before we talk but it was ‘I wonder how green flame is doing.’
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 5 meanwhile at home)
Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter. The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 6 The Liberation of Breifne)
(The Liberation Breifne)
I was tired but I still have to get ready. I had John make me a suit of armour so I would be prepared to go into battle.
To be honest I’ve never been in a real fight. I had one or two brawls but they weren’t nothing as serious as this.
I was putting on my chest plate until I can reach around to tie the leather strap.
“Need some help there?” said an unfamiliar masculine voice.
I turned around to see... Spike! How did he get so tall! “Hey...umm if you don’t mind I could use a hand… or a claw.”
He comes up behind me and finishes tying the leather strap.
I thank him and go to put on the rest of my armour. All I was missing out was my helmet. I made sure the helmet design had a hole in The back so that I can put my hair through like a 'ponytail'.
Looking at the armour I can feel a small bit of pride, even though it haunted my past of what I had to do. I am still a changeling and this is my culture and I shall wear it with Honor.
After done putting on the Elite armour of the changeling I start making my way to the docks. Spike decides to walk with me which I don’t mind considering I would love the company as of the moment.
“So where were you spike?” I asked politely.
“Oh, when we were in the third Circle a blacksmith wanted to hire me to help him set up his blacksmith shop.” He pulls out a small bag of what I can assume one gold in a couple silver. “I don’t know how much your currency is here… but I thought I was gonna be getting more pay than silver.” He will take me with the computer look.
“Well how much does your currency have?” Even pulls out a gold coin that looks a little bit smaller than our gold coins.
“This is called a bit and it is worth one.”
I chuckled a little bit and tell him “well you see we would have a lot more gold coins but the Canterlot Nobles screwed us over by giving us wooden ones just painted yellow. So I had to work off paying the debt that they gave us and find a way so that we can have a lot of money still. And silver was the most popular material we had in stock.”
“Oh, I’m sorry they screwed you over.” he said apologetically.
“Don’t be you were not the one to give us the wooden coins so I can safely say that you’re innocent in all this.” I said putting a hand on his shoulder.
We make our way down to the docks to see a big crowd of people. I saw family saying goodbye to their love ones and people getting on the ships to leave. I could see Captain Lee and Oden giving orders on who stays and defence, and who is going to Britannia.
As we make our way down, peoples began to notice us and cheer. I nervously smile and wave. I was now in charge of an army going to unfamiliar territory, to rescue our king, and anyone else that’s still alive on the island that is our ally… i’m pretty sure this is normal... right?
I walked up to The biggest ship that has about 15 men that I can see and we were loading a few blisters and the the new catapults.
“Your majesty!” I was brought back out of my thoughts.
I turned to see a knight giving me a short bow. “Your majesty we will be ready in 15 minutes.”
“Then we shall leave in 20 minutes” I say to him.
“Of course your majesty” he gives me another bow and makes his way to tell the others.
I look at the sea and imagine what we’re about to go through. If we fail the human kingdom comes to a end a second time. And I’m pretty sure no one coming after Alex to bring back the humans. This is it… I look back at the men realizing that they’re probably scared as well… I think of a quick speech to give.
I start buzzing my wings up to the crows nest. Once I land, I wait until we’re ready before I quickly got everyone's attention.
“Today!” I shouted with my hands on the guard rail of the crows nest. Immediately I get everyone’s attention. “The fate of humanity lives in the balance of us! Your long Alex is trapped on the island of Britannia and if he dies we will fall! I know you do not wish to hear the worst of reality, but it is true! But that is not all! If we succeed..! No! When we succeed! there will be stories for the centuries!”
I could see the men start to cheer a bit with my speech so I continue. “Some will be true and some will be false, but regardless the point is clear! We are separated from our king and we are still able to come together to save him! Tell me of a nation that won’t beg and weep for their gods and I will give my full respect to that nation! We are at humanity's darkest hour, But with our darkest hour will be the beginning to our greatest light! No more shall we be a shadow that the world does not recognize! From now on we will be a force to be reckoned with! For the Human Kingdom! I screamed at the top of my lungs.
The whole Dockyard was covered in cheers for the Human Kingdom.
As we began to set sail I look one last time to my home. I think to myself this will not be the end. We will succeed… but I still can’t stop thinking about Alex… he must feel so…
(Alex POV)
“Bored…” I slightly cry to myself. It has been one week in neither army as a standard to make a move. Don’t give me wrong I don’t want to hurt people but I wish there were something more I can do.
Both army share the same border and pretty much an equal number in men. The problem is if we make one move to attack The enemy can easily surround us… but if they make the first move to attack we can do the same to them so now it’s a stalemate. Both sides have scouts reporting in daily of what each of us are doing but nothing really has changed.
I take a look at my notes making sure I have everything memorized.
Aileach a kingdom of Orcs:
Armies: 1
Average amount of soldiers in each army: 750
Friends: Mide a kingdom of Goblins (are the vassal of this kingdom)
Enemies: Connacht a kingdom of Orcs.
Currently: The kingdom of Aileach just lost a big battle with Connacht making them lose in an entire army. The last remaining army is battling is the kingdom of Ulaid
Banner: A black hand with a white background
Osraige a kingdom of Goblins:
Armies: 1
Average amount of soldiers in each army: 420
Friends: Mide a kingdom of Goblins (are the vassal of this kingdom)
Enemies: Connacht a kingdom of Orcs.
Currently: they lost the battle at Hlymrekr with the aid of Tuadmuma. Even though they lost the battle they were able to keep the five ballistas.
Banner: A black deer laying down with a yellow background
Mide a kingdom of Goblins:
Armies: 1
Average amount of soldiers in each army: 820
Friends: Aileach and Osraige.
Enemies: Connacht a kingdom of Orcs.
Currently: The kingdom of Mide easily conquered Breifne but lost the battle at Tuadmuma. With this humiliation and the king dead his son now king Rupert pulled whatever man he could for one last army. There will be no reinforcements this was it.
We currently stand at me, Gabe, Eric and five medics. Along with:
Tuadmuma Fire Spirits soldiers; 360
They only stand at 1240 not including Aileach. Even though we outnumber them I still do not want to risk it for glory.
I read over the notes again and noticed something I missed. Mide had conquered Breifne… I started thinking of a plan. If we were to retake Breifne and liberate it fast enough that would cut off Aileach and Mide. Leaving them from our allies and making us gain one more.
If were slow we can still retake it and set up an ambush to destroy them and take the north of this island.
I checked the Maps and make sure my information was correct. They should probably have 50 soldiers at least there to keep the peace. So if we Bring a small amount of troops as a liberating force the people might ride up and we will outnumber them.
I am going to bring 10 soldiers from each kingdom and two medics. This is it Breifne is the key to winning of this war.
(One week later)
With the blessings of King Ea, Unitas and Oscar I was able to get 10 men for each of their kingdom to accompany me.
I was hoping to be a little bit faster with my 32 men but no matter it is time to liberate Breifne.
Because I’m in a hurry and I didn’t think of a proper plan I’m just gonna do it my way and wing it from there.
I tell my man to wait for the signal as I walk up to the gate of Breifne. “Open up!” I shout… surprisingly it worked. I could see the gates open up a little bit and finally a girl decided to pick over to see who they were talking to… when they noticed that it was me I can hear frantic shooting in the gates started to close again with a burst of speed I rush over and hold the gate open.
My men seem to be shocked but knowing that this was the single, rush forward and began to pour into the gate. I started to question on how that actually worked. ‘Why the hell did I do that, was I out of my mind? Well no time to question that now's I thought as I saw the last of my men run into the city.
Just like Tuadmuma The walls were very similar. I started focussing on the mission and I noticed that most of the goblins were unprepared and were scattering it seems like most of the enemy didn’t even have their basic equipment on as they ran.
I was very surprised when we took the city very easily in the next couple minutes. The enemy was stupid opening the gates first then looking out. They were unprepared when they should always be prepared. And finally the highest rank here was a corporal.
With the way these soldiers were trained this spelt doom from the beginning. Only a single one of us was injured and that was not even from the enemy. The Orc simply fell on an enemy spear that was dropped and slightly cut his cheek. I brought the best of the best to only meet children.
Well I guess I can’t be really that mad. At least not a single one of us died. Now I can get on to more important business. Get the medics to help the civilians get the rest of the men here to retake a simple town to the east and get this place defended in case of a quick counterattack.
I stood before the people of Breifne and started to speak. “Today I stand here not as your conqueror but as your liberator. For too long Mide idea of conquering the North had put thousands to death already. But we can end this now. If you join us we will retake the north and become the true power of the north. I will not force you into something that you do not have to do but we are retaking the small town as well to the east so that Breifne can finally live in peace once again.”
I walkway letting them think about it and begin to prepare for a counterattack which should be soon.
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 7 The Battle of Two Hills)
(The battle of the To Hills)
A gust of wind blew my cape to the left as I stand on the walls of Breifne. One more day and it will be my second month here in Britannia.
Our scouts have reported that Aileach had made peace with Ulaid and had suckered in Airgialla to declare war on us. Airgialla is another Orc kingdom.
My hand clutched tightly on the rail guard nearly snapping it. How much more have to die until they realized that there is a better way. I don’t even know what that is but I know there’s another way instead of blood and Iron.
Every kingdom is pulling as much troops as they can for what the men are calling The Final Fight.
I take a look at the new reports each one containing the increased army sizes.

With us standing at.
Tuadmuma Fire Spirits soldiers; 360
As it look on the map to see where the best spot would be to have our last defence take place.
I noticed a couple of hills just a little bit South-east from Breifne.
If we make it there now we can have a great defence to propel even a greater force then what they have.
It will take Aileach and Airgialla A week and a half to get to this particular spot.
If the new king Rupert is a fool he will attack before his reinforcements arrive. If he’s not a fool he will wait. It’s a win-win scenario for me.
I get the attention of the other kings and we set out immediately.
xxxxxxxxxx
As we arrive to the hills I noticed the biggest one and got to work.
Breifne citizens wanted to help before the enemy arrived considering we liberated them.
With my mindset we get to work.
Day 1
The hill we decide to put our base on didn’t have the trees like it’s brothers.
I didn’t want the enemy to use the trees for cover so I ordered them cut down and used for later.
At the exact same time I had guys build a trench all away around the hill hopefully to ease the coming battle.
Day 2
The second day we were halfway done with the trench and most of the trees were cut down.
Day 3
Scouts have reported that king Rupert army from the south is slowing down and waiting for its ally.
The trenches are almost done and all of the trees are cut down.
Day 4
With all the extra dirt from the trench we piled up behind it and use the wood from the trees to make sure it stays there.
The trench is 4 feet deep making the wall of the trench 8 feet tall.
Day 5
The Breifne had went home to be with their families as we finished the work.
Most of the trench is finally done and we have put rusty nails in the boards facing the enemy so that when they tried to climb up it would be brutal.
we have ladders to easily get over the trench, but soon we will have to remove them.
Day 6
The trench is finally complete which the men are calling the “deathtrap”.
We have some remaining dirt so I decided to make a ledge so that the Ballistas have an easier time firing.
We put the scorpions on little 7 foot makeshift towers to have a better range
Day 7
We mostly rested but a few of us made a month stock of water and food. The only problem is there’s not much place to put it so we secretly hide it on other Hills.
Day 8
We hunt down every animal and cut off the river so that the enemy will have no supplies if this is to last long.
Day 9
We was mostly resting until our scouts said that the enemy will arrive at around midday tomorrow.
Many were scared of the upcoming battle but I was confident that our defences would hold.
Day 10
I believe it’s around 11. Men ready for an earlier ambush lined the walls. Spirit, swords and axes ready to begin the “Final Battle”
We start seeing The enemy crossover the other hills some of them have shock looks as they take a look at our admitably fine wall.
One hill particular is where I can see several Kings and one particular goblin.
He was leading them all and was sitting a few chairs to watch the battle. I could not wait to see the look on his face when we hold back there hoard.
xxxxxxxxxx
A few hours pass by and each group making sure to stay away from archery fire stand a bit away.
The sun is starting to beat down on my head and with all the fur I have, it’s kind of cooking me alive.
As I am watching for the enemy to make any sudden moves I noticed a book to my right on the wall. It had the title “The Lost One”.
I remember this was the exact same book that I had read before on the train. It looked a bit bigger than the last time I saw it. I was a little bit intrigue so I started to continue on… even though it scared the fuck out of me last time.
I read a few chapters a notice that things are starting to get interesting. I just finished chapter 8 and I was read to read chapter 9 until I heard something ahead of me.
I look up for a second and see. "Oh shit! an arrow!" With lightning speed and grab it before I could hit my eye. A second any later and I would not be ready to hold...
“Incoming!!!” I heard one of our men say.
I look back up and I see more arrows come flying at me. Without thinking I use the book as a shield and was able to protect myself from five different arrows.
When I looked back at the book and pouted a little bit, noticing that my new favourite story was ruined. Then before my very eyes it vanished.
Deciding to worry about the book later I look back at a horde that was coming towards us looking bigger than it actually was.
I look back at our group noticing a few injured and Dead. Our men started firing back shots but it was an organize charge that would never break by simple arrows.
I noticed an Orc that had fallen over in the commotion. I could see another valley of arrows from the enemy making its way to us.
I rushed to the Orc grabbing a wooden plank along the way and covered the Orc and I from the valley of arrows.
I turned to him. Had a look of amazement on his face. “No time to be amazed we have more coming get ready” I say to him. By now I can hear commotion at the wall knowing that the enemy is trying to climb over and get to us.
“Those arrows are going to be the end of us. Get to king Ea and get him to grab a group to take of those goddamn archers“
He nods his head then asked “what if he doesn’t listen to me?”
I look around me to see if I have anything to identify that it was me who sent him. I look at my tail and rip some black and purple fur and give it to him.
He takes the fur and runs off to see if you can fined King Ea.
I make my way back to the wall noticing that they are using ladders 'Danget' I thought as they use them to get over the wall. It still didn’t have much of a factor but those ladders were still dangerous.
I draw my sword as I noticed a goblin nearly getting over the wall. I used my sword and hit him in the eye. As I pulled the sword out I see an orc trying to get up next.
I quickly use the blood on my blade to splash him in the eyes. He screams in agony and falls over into the deathtrap.
As more come and go I could see arrows overhead. This time they were aimed at us but towards the enemy. With the archers decimating them many of them start to fall back.
Wave after wave after wave of arrows fell upon the enemy as they tried to retreat not many missing there mark.
I planted my sword into the ground getting rid of all the blood on it.
I see fire spirit beside me I grab them at the shoulder and tell them. “get me a…" I take a breath holding a ladder is harder than I thought "damage report” he nods his head and goes to find a damage report somewhere on the hill.
I look over to my left to the West and see that the sun is a bit over the horizon.
(King Rupert POV)
I continue to look at my map. How could we feal so easily they were barely defended. I ordered my general to be executed well I take over the lead. Luckily the new weapons had just arrived. It will be a night of flames.
(Alex POV)
It is a Full Moon Tonight and torches are all over the place to make sure that the enemy knows that we are still here. As I read over the report it’s not good.
About 500 dead or wounded, but about 700 dead of the enemy in the deathtrap, and 200 outside of the deathtrap. 50 prisoners were taken.
Luckily there artillery was too far out of range and did no damage to our defense.
I get on one of the makeshift towers that hold the scorpion and look at the enemy camp.
There’s a few torches but it seems like they’re gonna be settling down for the night… no... something's not right...
I grab a nearby torch and decided to toss it into the field. As it landed it shown nothing but if it wasn’t for my better eyesight I wouldn’t have noticed a Blackfoot.
“Battle stations!” I yell.
instantly men lined the walls and arteries take positions. Men that were looking out jump onto the scorpions and ballistas.
All is quiet…
“Archer!” I shout at one in particular. He stands at attention. His dark burnt stone indicating that he was a fire spirit.
“Shoot a fire arrow in the darkness.” I commanded.
He does sell in as zips over the ground many orcs with their dark skin can be seen.
Admittedly I give the command “Archers! Fire arrows! On my mark!" I wait to make sure we're set. "Fire!”
hundreds of arrows shoots through the sky letting it up as fire arrows at the ground in lighting it up or hit bodies and make them fall.
The Orcs full on charging now. I hurried to the wall repair into the Fendant like last time.
Eventually I start seeing Orc giants goblins and fire spirits come into the fray as well.
I can see both sides fighting violently but are both tired with the lack of sleep. Men trying to climb over the ladder to get to us fall into death trap without getting hit. Some of us haven’t even stuck in down enemy yet as we are too tired to wield a sword.
This goes on for hours some men even passing out on the spot. Then the enemy begin to retreat. The enemy barely inflicted casualties on us for their surprise attack was completely destroyed.
I hear huge Footsteps. It’s behind me as I see Gabe coming close.
Gabe yawns and it becomes contagious.
The sun is just over the horizon now and we’re both smiling knowing that we have one and that our defences have hold. There was nothing they could defeat us now.
Me and Gabe both chuckle to each other Venice face automatically turns to shock. He’s not staring at me anymore and is looking behind me.
I turned around to see goblin his left hand has a fireball in it and in the other is a small case with some black powder inside.
I all of a sudden get a memory of this black powder but I am still not sure what it is. This black powder is all over the dead bodies some of them getting up and holding even more black powder.
Then I remember it’s-“your majesty get down” I hear Gabe’s voice yell as he gripped my shoulder and throws me to the hill.
As he throws me I see the goblin light up the gunpowder! There is a huge explosion blowing up the wall and Gabe, like many others, is engulfed in the flame.
I feel my head connect with something but that was all as everything went dark
xxxxxxxxxx
I can hear screams in the darkness. Some are grants some are roars pain. I can feel my vision come back to me.
My head feels like it made contact with a train. I hit rocks before but I was always able to prepare and put up a small magic shield before hitting it and save some of the damage.
But when I put my right hand on my fourhead I was met with a warm liquid. I move my hand back to see it’s covered in blood.
I get up my ears are ringing loudly.
I looked back at the wall seeing that it’s completely torn up. Men That look like a blur to me cover the field. The second attack was supposed to fail. how much men did they have in reserve.
I look around thinking that I forgotten something. I have my sword and my bow but what am I missing… gabe!
I quickly stand up making my way over to battlefield. I trip over and noticed my leg. It seems badly bruised but luckily it’s not broken.
I start crawling I need to find Gabe. The men are starting to look like actual beings instead of blurs. Our lines seem to be falling as their reserve unit well rested.
I stand up again as I make it to the line. As a goblin tries to cut off my head with a sword I quickly grab it not caring for the additional wound. I yank the sword from his grasp and use it to cut him in the stomach.
He drops riving in pain so I just move onto the next. Even though I’m exhausted I cut down my enemy is trying to get to Gabe. Hasn’t even occurred to me that I’m using enemy sword.
My men are starting to push the enemy back to the wall that’s when I noticed a body.
I wouldn’t have noticed it if I wasn’t familiar with his face. His chard and flaming skin as Gabe laid on the ground.
I rush over to him, he’s missing his legs and his magic is gone. I quickly check a pulse but… nothing.
The battle rages on and I am dumbfounded now realizing that I have lost a great friend.
I can feel tears running down my eyes... I need to pull myself together there is a battle to be one. but I stay there. I can feel my vision going a little bit black. Was I passing out.
I can feel dark imbrace me like it did the first time I arrived here in this crazy world. I slowly begin to fall asleep but there’s something odd about this darkness this time. I can slightly see red.
Author's Note
As I’m working on the book I hear a knock from behind. I can already guess who it is and I’m slightly not pleased. How the hell was I supposed to explain this to him.
“It’s open” I yell
In comes moon from “The Lost One” (go check it out) with a smile on his face.
“So how did Alex enjoy the book?” He asked as the smell of blood and smoke fills the room
“He really enjoyed it” I said kinda concerned.
“Well anyways, I need to finish work on it so do you mind if I have a back?” Moon asked slightly dusting something off himself.
“Well... you see” I say as I slowly bring of the book.
His demeanour changed as he saw the book. Immediately he yanked it out of my hand and says.
"nooooo my book *Holds up a book filled with arrows and sighs* might take awhile to get back to mint condition..." He looks at it sadly holding it like a child "My book..."
“Anyways I am sorry, and I kinda have to get back to the book so do you mind if I can have it again later?” I ask.
He gives me a glare stands up and walks out of the room.
And quickly comes back in grumbling about cartels and not letting someone ride him again and gives me the book before vanishing wherever the door leads to
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 8 The Red Demon)
(The Red Demon)
(Eric POV) (A few minutes earlier)
I let out a tired sigh. I can’t believe it was finally over. Doing a long battle then sending a surprise attack just too exhausting was a ridiculous move. I was just glad that it was over.
I walk up the hill over to my tenant and get some shut eye. The peaceful embrace of darkness really calmed-(kracka-boom) I was awakened by the sound of thunder but as I look outside there was no rain not even a cloud up there. Actually there is some black smoke by the front- oh shit!
I quickly run inside and grab my sword with my left hand, I’m still not comfortable with that but I can’t complain better than no hands... Or fingers...
As I making my way to the front I noticed that there is a breach in the wall. I can see king Alexander kneeing in front of… Gabe! Fuck! I don’t get to know him much but he was a good guy! I rush towards the battlefield ready to kill anyone who gets in my way but then I noticed something odd about Alex.
He had a few wounds on him but his tail seemed perfectly fine. Why was it red.
Suddenly Alex stood up and turned around. His eyes were still closed as blood dripping from his head. I could see a goblin rushing to him its spear pointed at his chest. I watched in horror as it penetrates Alex going right through his chest like knife in butter the goblins dangling from his body...
…
But Alex did not move The battle practically stopped. Everyone was strangely staring at Alex waiting for him to make a move including me.
(Third Person POV)
The crowd of Orcs, Goblins and Fire Spirits plus humans watched in amazement even having a spear penetrating his chest he can still stand!
Alex finally opened his eyes and you can swear the world gasped. His eyes were a bright crimson red. Just staring into his eyes you could feel fear spread through you, both friends and foe got that same feeling.
His crimson red eyes just so happen to be staring into the face of the goblin who had stabbed him and is now dangling off the spear by his hand.
With his right hand Alex brought right up to the goblins chest he flicked it in chest with only his finger.
The entire back of the Goblin exploded outwards as the blood rushed out of his body.
The goblin was launch back off his spear and landed in his allies. A Conrad of the goblins check on them noticing that almost all of the blood in his system had disappeared and didn’t even spray on the battlefield.
The whole battlefield had screams of terror. Both sides trying to get away from this… Demon.
…
King Rupert is certainly confused, why is the battle completely stopped. He should have won by now. He orders his captains to fire the arrows, if they are not going to win this battle then he will have to do it himself.
… all across the battlefield many noticing hundreds of arrows in the sky raining down upon them.
Many were conflicted upon this betrayal why would their king and Ally do this to them. Others tried to raise there Shields but knowing that most of the shields have been damaged due to the assault there is little hope for them
But Alex simply turned around looked at the arrows he grabs the spear in his chest he quickly yanks it out of his chest without even flinching and threw it at the horde of arrows.
As soon as the spear left his hand, it broke the sound barrier as it flew off into the arrows. This spear missed all the arrows but with the impact of the winds going against the arrows, all of the arrows were knocked off they’re intended path.
The sky was littered with arrows that they fell to the ground not hurting A single person.
Many were amazed and Some just dropped their weapons not wanting to continue the fight, too afraid.
Alex looked back noticing that the others we’re not willing to fight anymore. He proceeded to look at his next enemy king Rupert who had not noticed them yet but definitely had notice the arrows being moved by a simple spear.
Alex drew his sword and in both amazement and disgust absorbed the blood of the foe he had obliterated. As the blood went into the sword many thought they heard a female singing.
Second wave is coming now Alex rushed forward meeting them head on. The incoming wave thought that it was going to be in easy flight.
They were surprise when they saw him disappear and reappear slaying three of their Comrad's before disappearing again. Many thought he was teleporting but did not realize that he was going so fast that the road runner was slower than him.
Alex proceeded to appear and disappear unknowing where he would pop up next.
Finally Alex appeared in the centre of the second wave and raised his sword. The blood of 260 enemies was being absorbed into the sword. Everyone now could hear this sword singing in delight.
His sword is now fully glowing and the second wave knew this was not a good sign so they started retreating. How right they were. Alex proceeded to hold his sword in the opposite way and plunge it into the ground.
Instantly the ground exploded and anyone who was caught in the surrounding area that was a 26m radius was disintegrated.
The ground is charred in a perfect circle. Then comes the royal looking goblin. He is maybe and his 60s. White beard goes all way down to the bottom of the chest. His expression is anger. Alex shifts his sword.
“You murdered my brother” he said. “If it wasn’t for you this war would have ended by now if thousand would not die for this hopeless cause. Just surrendered now and I will grant quick death“
…
All was quiet for not even a cricket dare to make it sound.
…
“Ha.. haha… hahahahahahahaha”. The first thing the come out of Alex's Mouth was laughter “you fool, thousand were Doomed to die in the beginning. What makes you think that me coming here would’ve save their pathetic lives. And your brother… that’s no murder”
“It! Was! A! Slaughter!” Alex just stared at him.
“You bastard! I will kill you! AAAHHHH” The goblin King Rush forward Alex simply does nothing. The king raised his sword Alex did nothing.
The king brought his sword down Alex disappear and appeared behind him. The king took a few steps forward. Alex with his sword suddenly clean of blood behind him.
The king started following apart starting from his hands and feet through to his arms and legs. Eventually the king was nothing more than a pile of 1 inch cubes.
Alex had the creepiest smile in the world. He has a toothy smile spread across his face
Suddenly Alex grabs his head with his left hand and crumpled to the ground. “my time is up, truly a shame“
(Alex POV)
Awake on the floor my sword in front of me it’s usually Purple glow sues me. I then remember Gabe, I slowly get to my feet.
Finally I noticed the battlefield. Memories of what I just did go through my brain.
I quickly checked my chest to my relief there is no fatal wound of the spear but it still needs to get checked out.
I now realize how exhausted I am. I still have a lot of magic but I’m just so exhausted and my body can barely move
(Sunk)
An arrows hit my left shoulder but the armour stopped it.
I look up and see another royale leader. “That was for my uncle!” he said.
The enemy is starting to surround me.
(Sunk)
An arrow ppenetrates my right shoulder the armour having no use.
“That was for my dad!” He screamed
As I get surrounded I noticed that they are not looking at me but behind me.
I Hear an arrow being drawn on a bow “And this is for my nation.” The arrow flies, aimed directly to my head. I close my eyes for and wait for the killing Blow… nothing happens.
I open my right eye to see what happened. to my shock it stuck in midair. It had a green aura around it and even though I haven’t seen the person I already know who it is. I turn around to see Green Flame and her horn ignited.
I got to stop nearly getting killed every time i’m on the battlefield it's like an addiction.
Green Flame hugged me, and and used all the energy I have just so I can rub her on the head.
I gave a little glanced back noticing that the King has gotten away.
“Die!” A Orc charges us with his longsword out. A certain Timberwolf tackles the Orc to the ground and bites out his throat.
after he’s done his breakfast he walked over to me in rub his head against my armoured hip. I give him a pat on his head too.
I’ll look around more and I can see humans all around demolishing the enemy with their surprise attack.
I feel my legs giveaway but thankfully Green Flame caught me. “Honey are you all right he seem exhausted” she says threw her helmet.
“I’ll be fine but I have one more job to do.” I look over the Killer. Killer was just a name I gave him on the spot but now I know what his name should be.
“Pólemos!” The Timberwolves look at me recognizing its new name. “The king must die. May I ride you’re back” Pólemos nods his head and Lays down for me to easily get on.
As I mount Pólemos I feel a tug on my arms from Green Flame “you can’t go!” she says. “You can barely stand as it is!“
I just give her a gentle smile and removed her helmet then put my right hand on her left cheek. “As long as the king lives, more will die” using my right hand I bring her closer to my lips. As we released, I gave her one last smile. “when I returned it will just be me and you exploring this new place for a week. I promise.”
She give me a sad smile and nod her head. I turned back to Pólemos “Pólemos!” I say as I take the left arrow out of my Armour and bring it to his nose “can you track this?” I ask him
As soon as Pólemos sniffs the arrow he charges through the crowd. I held on tight and kept my head low, not wanting a spear through my head.
Eventually we make it past the crowd in onto the hill where I saw the enemy king sit. His chairs are still here but he’s not.
But Past the hill I saw something on fire. I take a closer look and it’s the king writing on some type of Fire elk.
I reach for my quiver and grab an arrows… I felt nothing… I forgot, the more tired I am the less arrows I can summon.
I had dropped the one arrow as we rushed off but there is still the arrow in my right shoulder.
I check the arrow noticing that he went right through my shoulder. This is gonna hurt like a son of a bitch.
With both hands I yank the arrow out of my shoulder, screaming in pain. I collapsed on Pólemos almost blacking out from both the tiredness and pain
I’m too exhausted to move right now. I can still see the King and getting away, I have to do something.
…
Then I notice something...
The wind…
It feels nice…
(Third Person POV)
Is the king ran away, Alex quickly picked himself up. Alex can feel the wind around him. The one thing no one notices though was that his irises turned gray.
Alex began to feel better as newfound energy swimming through him. He raised his bow somehow placing air on it, his blood still dripping. Then he began to chant as if he knew the words his whole life.
“Hear me Hera, Guardian of the Wind and Spring! Give me your aid in defeating my enemies! Let my aim be true as I strike! Let them hear your howl in the night! Allow my arrows to fly and my sword to be swift! Hear me Hera Guardians of the Wind and Spring!”
“Bow Technic: Unstoppable Arrow!” Alex shouted in the old human tongue.
He released the arrow and once again broke the sound barrier. But this time the wind with surrounding the arrow guiding to its destination.
The king saw the arrow and uses shield the block it. But surprisingly The arrow completely moved directions and shot Straight through his face.
Alex sighing for his mission was over finally passed out due to exhaustion.
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Fire of War)
And as the sunset that night so did the “Fire of War”. Mide had put everything on the line, hoping to quickly conquer the north.
History will remember this as one of the many fires of War. But the natives of the North will call it “The Northern War”.
Has Alex gained new heights it also attracted many new potential enemies to the South. Many didn’t even glance when this new human came over, but now that The Northern War was won by Alex, many see them as a new threat.
It does not help because Alex left Garrison force as soon as he left
That’s not to mention his vassals armies. A lot more brand new and train soldiers.
Tuadmuma Fire Spirits soldiers; 372
That is nothing to his main Armie now
While it may not be as big as other nations it’s still scary at your doorstep.
But while all this is happening Alex is enjoying his time with Green Flame. They decided to go a little further in the relationship and overall had a pretty damn good time.
Alex still recovering and he may not be fully recovered until a few months.
After he was done hang out with Green Flame for the week he went to go visit his new city Mide.
He hast to be there for the treaty to be signed and everyone to get their share of the profit.
Also what happened on the Battlefield many soldiers had agreed not to speak about it. They do not wish to anger Alex and have him unleashed the demons onto them.
Alex is a oblivious of the soldiers that now fear him. Some humans saw him in his form, but their loyalty and love to there king washed away all their fears.
For days they had celebrated, making it in time to save their king as he had saved them from extinction.
Lee has been constantly checking up on Alex making sure that he was all right. Lee had kept blaming himself for leaving Alex to take care of business All by himself. Alex would laugh and say not to worry about it.
Oden would very dramatically tell his tail as soon as he entered the fight. Although it was very far fetch it lifted Moral and put aside any Dread.
So that’s it right! Everyone gets a happy ending! The bad guys are stopped! The swords haven’t put down! And there is no more blood on the battlefield! Everyone wins!
…
…
…
…
…
Some laughter is heard in the darkness "did you really think that the “Fire of War” was OVER!" Says a familiar Voice some more laughter is heard but it slowly turns insane"How naive are you Writer! In case you have Forgotten..." suddenly a page appears from our of no where a hand quickly reaches forward and tears The bottom of it away "The War Is Far From Over!"Demonic laughter is heard echoing through the dark "Oh what is wrong readers, didn’t expect to see little old me again. Don’t worry"suddenly red glowing eyes and a demonic smile of teeth appear in the darkness "I Was Here All Along." It's voice slowly getting more sinister "Waiting for the right moment to appear. you might be wondering “who am I?”some laughter is heard again "Well read the title of the last chapter." the face gets even more sinister as if it's amused"but in all seriousness… I am not. a demon… I’m The Devil Itself. Or as my creator said about a few thousand years ago. so long ago that I do not remember him by nothing but name. But enough about that I’m here to tell you the truth. There can be no other way to end the fire of war. Blades will Break. Blood will Run. And yet the Fires of War have just begun.”
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Then suddenly the place brightening up as the door opened. The darkness disappears revealing a room and something walks through the doorway revealing a standing figure of an Anthro Fox, with different shades of grey fur it walked in and started checking the room making sure the Windows were locked.
As it leaves It mumbles to its self "I swear I heard someone in here..." And then the door shut casting it once more into darkness
Author's Note
I would love to give a huge thanks to my editor (Full Moon Tonight)
Without my editors my books could not be as great as they are. Go and check out Moon’s books they’re pretty good.
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 9 The Son of King Rupert)
(The son of Rupert)
The direct path was smooth as Pólemos carried us to the city of Mide. Green Flame is currently sleeping on my back as we take the gentle ride through the landscape.
since I had passed out on the battlefield I decided to take a travel with my girlfriend to learn about this land.
Mide was now insight as we drew closer with every step.
We arrived at the gate after a quick check from the Guard screaming "Who Goes There!" they opened it allowing us passage. Pólemos walked up the hill and as I got a closer look I noticed that these walls are similar to Tuadmuma and Breifne walls they were also very wally.
As we entered in the city I got looks from the populous of both disgust and hatred towards me. My own guard arrived to make sure that they wouldn’t try anything against us.
Such is the way of war the concord country is displeased and it’s full of hatred. They will calm down eventually but not for a long while.
Finally as my escort and us arrive at the palace, I dismounted Pólemos and Green Flame woke up due to me moving around. I helped her get down and we walked inside ready for our duty.
Inside we were greeted with servant and butlers. Me, Green Flame and Pólemos were escorted to the room. Before we entered, we hear celebration and a few familiar voices. And a few unfamiliar voices but that will not bother me.
As I open the doors I noticed all of the lords and a few loyal knights and Vikings on the perimeter. The Lords noticed us and greeted us. Four I had recognized and two I did not.
“Greetings your majesty!” Shouted Ea Bowing formally "we were just waiting for you to sign the peace treaty. " I smile and give him a polite nod I take a seat and Green Flame takes the seat to my left. Pólemos sets down to my right and I rub him on the head.
The Lord’s take their respective seat and I was handed the treaty.
first act: All of Aileach will be annexed by Connacht
Second act: Connacht Will be a vassel of The New Human Kingdom
Third act: Airgialla Will be a puppet for The New Human Kingdom
Fourth act: Tuadmuma and Hlymrekr will unite there kingdoms into Pyrkagiá
Fifth act: Pyrkagiá will become a vassel of The New Human Kingdom.
Sixth act: Osraige will become a puppet for The New Kuman Kingdom
Seventh act: Mide Will be annexed by Pyrkagiá
Eighth act: all P.O.W’s Will be released four they are no longer useful as prisoners
At this point I was happy. Everything that was needed is done and everything I want is done as well.
Just one problem
Ninth act: The son of King Rupert will be executed
I read it over and over again, But the words stayed the same. Eventually I asked “Who is… The son of King Rupert...”
I noticed lord Ea and Oscar had a displeased look. A lord with the Breifne baner over him said “yes, the boy will be trouble in the future. It is best if we execute him now.” A.. a.. Boy!
“What in god's name has come over you Man! To murder a child is barbaric!” I Shout in confusion my ears subconsciously pinning to my head.
“I understand your confusion my Lord but if we do nothing The boy will soon become of age and his people will expect him to start a rebellion, and I do not want to go into a Guerrilla war.” He explained calmly.
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I could see Green Flame’s face was also twisted into a Frown. “Well then” I said gaining everyone's attention "let’s take a vote“ everyone nodded there head in agreement.
“All Who think we should execute the boy raise their hand.” I was surprise when the leaders of Airgialla, Breifne, Hlymrekr and Osraige raise their hand. Hlymrekr is still independent because the treaty has not been signed yet. Airgialla and Osraige had already signed the treaty which makes them puppet.
“So it’s a tie” I say
The leader of Hlymrekr protested “what do you mean it’s a tie. We have majority rule.”
“What are you talking about?” I’ve replied. “Me, Ea, Oscar and Green Flame want to let the boy go.”
“She cannot vote. Well I heard is that you are not married yet which gives her know say. And a marriage takes at least months of planning I’m not willing to wait that long” he shoots back.
I’m thrown into a panic I can’t execute a child. it’s not fair... Start thinking... What can I do to give me time to think... AHA!
I am brought back to the real world with an idea. “We will have another meeting in five days. I implore you to think this through. We will have another vote and I swear on my life, and the crown on my head. That will be the Final voteing day” they nod is there head which I am thankful for and leave the room.
Finally it is me, Green Flame and Pólemos in the room with the guards. My head slams against the table it stings a little bit I don't notice as I try to think of ways through this. Green Flame and Pólemos tried to comfort me but is no use.
Eventually I get up and start making my way towards the door. “Where are you going?” Green Flame asked. I don’t look at her as I answer “to find this child and tell him his time. Their faces showed determination in their actions. The child has little time I must make it worth it I owe him that much.”
She just nods her head and stands beside me, holding my hand. “Then will go together” she said. I smile at her and we walked down the hall to find the boy.
As we make our way down I start thinking of ways I can break the news… The best I come up with was be honest.
We arrive at the training area and I can see a goblin boy. As it look at him he seems different than the others.
He’s already a foot taller than his father and he’s pretty damn good with a knife.
He suddenly stops in looks at us holstering his knife he starts making his way towards us.
Eventually we’re just 2 meters apart.
“Greetings” I say looking him up and down
“I presume that you killed my father.” He said without blinking.
“Y-yes I am” I said in shock not usual for someone especially a kid to think like that.
“Don’t be surprise... you’re the only fox around” he said face palming.
“Right” there’s a brief silence between us.
“So... kid” I begin only to have him interrupt me
“I’m gonna die” he said shocking me even more.
My ears flap against my head as I look down in shame. This gave them his answer.
“I knew it wouldn’t be long. This stuff always happens in Britannia” he said sighing.
I couldn’t look him in the eye after he said that. He doesn’t seem to be older than 15 and he’s taking it better than I expected.
“I’m sorry” I say to him
“Don’t be” he replies. “It was war it was either you or him.”
I took a second to respond to that “Very wise” I stated
“Thank you, but wisdom won’t get me anywhere now.” He said in defeat slumping a bit
I lift my head up and put my right hand on his left shoulder. “Hey now” I say “I gave them five days to decide so in the meantime let’s enjoy. Anything you want it’s on me."
He looks up at me “anything?” he said with a smirk.
Green Flame give a nod ‘Oh shit’ I thought in my head.
(12 minutes later)
We were on a hill… not just any hill… A Big Fucking Hill!
We were in a wooden boat ready to slide down a massive hill.
“Are you sure this is safe?” Green Flame asked.
‘No’ I thought.
“Yeah it’s perfectly fine” he replied.
‘Liar!’ I shout in my mind.
Me and Green Flame we’re already in the boat while William, also known as William the bastard. 'I can see where he gets his name from' is pushing it closer to the edge.
Instantly we go zooming down as William jumps in the back. I scream as loud as I can but the wind takes the sound.
We get about halfway and it’s getting very bumpy. I’m already picturing myself as a piece of art on the wall.
I noticed there’s a lake in front of us as we get closer to the bottom.
I look to my left and noticed Green Flames spitting on her hands. her spit looks like green slime. She then places One hand each side of her sticking her to the boat.
As we make it to the lake we start skipping like a rock cross the water. Eventually we stop skipping and it starts to slow down but not fast enough.
William grabs on Green Flame as I noticed that he’s also terrified.
The boat hits the Earth and is swang forward. The boat goes up to an angle of about 75° which is still enough to send me flying.
I smash through several trees but was quick enough to put up a magical shield. I start slowing down and eventually I hit to ground… Then ground then started to break. The whole ground gets Caved in as I feel my arm snap.
(Lee’s POV)
I look over the checklist for our trip home and realizing that we got everything I nodded to myself proudly From now on I will not leave Alex’s side. Never again should Alex feel pain.
(Then allowed and sudden)
“FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKK!”
…
…
…
“I had to jinx it, ugh” I said face palming.
(Two hours later)
Who knew there’s a cave underneath the city. I’m glad I found it at the cost of my right arm! That will be in a sling for the next three months… ‘Terrific!’
There were two knights on each side of me keeping guard. Ahead of me was Green Flame and William.
“I’m very sorry” said the William. “I swear it was an accident”
“It’s fine kid. no need to worry about it” I replied. “Now if you can help me out of this hospital bed we can continue on what you want to do.”
As I said that Green lame gave me a warm smile. William on the other hand was very confused.
“but you’re injured. You nearly died“ he said in protest.
I laughed at his statement “kid if you knew what I’ve been through you would chalk it up as a normal day.”
"He's Right."
He looked even more confused.
“That’s right” Green Flame said “he nearly died so many times and now I’m not even worried… it’s just annoying now.”
“Ouch” I say, looking hurt. “Some of us still have feelings”
As we continue our conversation William just looks more confused. “Does this happen often” he says
“Too often” me and a Green Flame say in unison.
(Two Days Later)
As me, William, Green Flame and for some reason Lee, walked the streets of Mide, we gain a lot of stairs as the prince is hanging out and showing around the conquering king.
William shows us all of his favourite places and the best places to eat.
William shows as a new store called the “Frozen Cup”. We enter the building and it’s quite cold.
They serve this new food called ice cream. Apparently the store owner was trying a few new things out and made ice cream.
I was a bit hesitant but as I took my first bite I wanted to buy the entire store. Luckily green flames talk to me considering I have no money on me.
Lucius the store owner said that he will be willing to move to my Kingdom to sell ice cream as long as I pay him there.
Lee told me that he would remind me later.
As we continued on our day I asked William where his friends were. He replied “due to me being a prince if I were to gain friends at a young age they would take me for granted my father said.”
I was saddened by his comment as no boy should grow up alone.
Eventually the topic went to history where I could tell Green Flame was starting to fall asleep. I had to carry her the rest of the way. I was surprised that I could still carrier with just one arm... bridal style!
He told me what happened decades ago when Britannia was near the end of the great war. Many generals without pay abandon everything to forge their own kingdoms which led to the great divide.
This island used to be inhabited by fire spirits only. Then the drakes came over so they had to send rescue armies.
The goblin suffered the most as they were cut off from supply lines and were the last to a abandon the mission. That’s why they don’t have that big of territories compared to the orcs. Who were the first to defect.
I learned also they had a fire ravens which could send messages a lot quicker. Fire ravens are easier to spot but our three times faster than the regular Raven.
They’re also pretty intelligent compared to most animals and can learn their way around the world easily for long campaigns 'Note to self get as many fire ravens for my army as I can.'
For some odd reason I could really connect with this kid. I don’t know why but he kind of reminds me of me. Maybe it’s an old memory that I have still forgotten.
As it gets late I start thinking about the meeting in a few days.
I wish to get his mind off it but my mind is all over it.
(Two Day Later: Near Midnight)
I’m laying in the guest bedroom as the moon shines brightly through my window. Green Flame sleeps soundly rate beside me. It’s been four days and tomorrow morning we will decide.
I still can’t figure out what to do. The kid is amazing and he has so much potential. But that potential will be wasted because of a few cowards!
…
...
‘Calm yourself Alex…’ I say in my mind. There’s got to be away to get the treaty signed and keep the kid alive! Think! Think!
Then it hit me… yes that would work perfectly! But I’ve never done this before… well I guess I have to get used to it I got to see what Green Flame thinks first before I set my plan in action.
I turn over to look at my beautiful girlfriend. I hope she agrees it’s my last plan.
I shake her shoulder a little bit and she opens a an eye. Our eyes connect as we lay there silently.
“You can’t sleep to” she says with a yawn.
I just close my eyes and slowly now on my head.
She gives me a smirk “I know you love William and I don’t need my changeling abilities to know that. And if I know you, you found out a way to save him haven’t you.”
I give her a smirk to confirm her answer.
She rolls her eyes as she says “what’s the plan.“
“It’s crazy” I tell her.
“You know I love crazy” she replies.
I smirk as I lean closer and whisper in her ear.
Her face becomes a bright green eyes she leans away. “You’re right. that is crazy” she says. Her face change his moods. “I just don’t know if I’m ready“
I place my hand on her cheek and say “you will do perfect.”
She takes a few moments to think about it and then nods her head.
(The Next Morning)
The table is filled with silence. Lee is behind me along with William to see his fate.
Tensions were high as each Lord looked at each other waiting for the other to speak. Eventually one got impatient.
Lord Unitas of Hlymrekr started the conversation. “Well now that we’re all here let us take a vote“
“There is no need I say I know what each of you was going to say.” The room is soon as I said it.
Williams eyes look down.
“So the boy will be executed I guess we can sign-“ “not so fast!” I say interrupting Unitas “this meeting is far from over.”
All of the Lords look at me confused. United speaks up. “my Lord what else is there to speak about”
“We’re not be executing William” I say as my head is held high.
Unitas looks at me in disbelief “but you said-“ I interrupt him again. “I said I will execute the son of Rupert but you see he is no longer the son of Robert.”
Everyone except for Green Flame is confused. I proceed to grab a suitcase that was there an hour before the meeting. I bring it on top of the table so everyone can see it and open it up.
I grab some papers and slam them on the table. “Because he is my son now!” There are jaws drop as they look at the adoption papers for William. I continue “because William mother died at birth and I killed his father it is my responsibility to take care of him. You won’t have to worry about him exciting to the crown anymore because he is not blood. he will never become my hair unless necessary… so gentleman” I say as I look at them. “Now we can start to sign the paper.”
The room is instantly silenced. But a slow clap from Unitas can be heard through the room. “I see you have beaten me” he says with a small smile. “where is the paper I’m need to sign it quickly so I may retire. As long as an intelligent brain is among us I do not need to worry about my Kingdom.”
I was kind of shocked at his answer I expected a little bit more retaliation. But now I can tell he never wanted to hurt boy he was just worried about his kingdom. But now he will not have to worry for as long as I am in charge I will Bring our countries into a golden age.
I feel William I hope the right side of me as he barely misses my arm that is damaged. I pat him on the head a little bit with my left. I can feel his tears soaking into my fer. Green Flame comes around and makes it a group hug, Green Flame has accepted to be William's mother.
Look out world to the new William Doom.
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Just A Dream)
Darkness. why is it always darkness. I had gone to sleep but the darkness always follows. But the air around me is warm why is it warm...
I open my eyes and I see fire raining down from the sky. I Quickly jump to my feet as I get a look at my surroundings. I seem to be by a canyon where the fire is raining the most.
I look to the bottom after walking to the edge. There are goblins, Orcs and fire spirits hard at work. It’s like a giant ass Forge.
At the very bottom it is a pool of lava as bronze, gold but mostly iron is thrown into it.
The amount of iron that is thrown in could fit in entire army. What the hell are they making.
Just then a roar came from the lava. The earth shattered and giant boulders fell into the lava. Some unlucky souls as well.
“are you enjoying the view” said a dark voice 'that Voice I heard it before...' and I shattered. I slowly turned around to see what I hoped not to see.
My copy cat grin as he looked at my facial expression. “Come now don’t be like that, we’re all friends here” IT said.
His... Sharp... toothy grin made me uneasy as his red glowing eyes purely into my soul.
He has a face of disappointment as I do not change my mood. “Fine” he simply said. “Anyways. I did not disturb you just to mock. you should know that there is a being more powerful than you. One where you’ll need my help, But this time I will not be helping you out of good will. you see The war that you have just finished is only the beginning and if you want my help you’re going to have to make me a deal.”
“And why would I ask help from you” I replied. “You’re a monster, you may have done good but I can feel the darkness within you.”
There was a brief silence as it processed the words I said.
“He... hehe… hahaha! HaHaHaHa! HAHAHAHAHA! Foolish child!” His right hand launched forward to grab my throat.
“The darkness inside of me is inside of you too HeHeHe. If you haven’t realized there’s much more to us than what meets the eye. Call us evil if you wish but no matter what we are a part of you who has already mastered their power.
I feel it squeeze around my throat we are lifted up on a platform made out of the earth and rose up to the sky at the speed of sound.
around us the world was getting worse. Instead of it just raining fire it was creating tornadoes of flame. Hundreds of villages were set ablaze by the on slot of fire.
“I was willing to help you just this once but you changed my mind. One day you’ll realize it. This will be the greatest task. Can you befriend the evil inside of you. Or will you watch your world burn. And before you ask this will not be mine doing but yours.
He brings me over to the ledge and drop me as he laughs. I fall faster and faster to the ground as I can see the lava get closer and closer.
“Remember dearest brother. The Fires of War have just begun.”
was the last thing I hear as I hit the lava.
xxxxxxxxxx
I shoot out of bed as I look around the room for danger… and IT.
“Mmm... honey what’s wrong” said an annoyed and tired Green Flames. “I sense worry from you is everything alright“ she sounds less annoyed now.
It takes me a minute to respond as I’m breathing heavily. “It’s fine” I replied “it was... “Just a Dream

The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 10: Home Sweet Home… And The New Girl)
Author's Note
Greetings everyone, I am author. Today we will have a crossover, some discipline, questioning and unexpected surprise.
I am working with (Full Moon Tonight) on this crossover so if you wish to see his characters characteristics then you’ll have to pass on to (The lost one)
(Chapter 10: Home Sweet Home… And The New Girl)
(Home Sweet Home… And The New Girl)
The birds were singing outside. The wind was blowing through my window. The sun was perfectly position in front of my balcony to strike me directly in the eyes.
This was home, and I loved it.
After so long away from home it’s good to finally sleep in my own bed.
I get up and make sure not to disturb Green Flame. Still hearing a soft snore of my girlfriend means I have succeeded In my endeavour.
I went over to my wardrobe and decided not to use my armour today. That is all I have been wearing and I need to change up. You know, keep it 'Fresh'.
I grab my brand new clothes.
I will be only wearing this when I am not going into battle. And might I add it looks striking.
Finishing the touch with my crown I hear a soft knock on my door “your majesty” Luke’s voice called out.
Looking at Green Flame, she still asleep so I walk over to the door quietly. I open my door to see my loyal advisor.
Luke notices my clothes. “you look good your majesty. Anyway I have some papers that you need to look at.”
He hands me an inch thick stack of paper.
“Thank you Luke” I reply. “that will be all.”
He politely bows his head and leaves.
I turn to the two guards, A Knight and a Viking. And tell them. “do not disturb me unless it’s the utmost importance.” “Yes, my lord” they reply.
I close the door and walk to my desk.
I set the papers down and grab a quill. I dip the quill in ink and look at the first page.
I was able to take off my cast because it turns out I can regenerate faster than what the doctors thought.
The first page is about taxing. It seems that Green Flame has a tax idea and all I need to do is sign it.
Basically in the capital city there’ll be districts. Where you want to live will have an upside and a downside.
So far there are 13 districts and number one is the capital and is the only one that is not affected. Is the lower the number the higher the taxes but the better the place.
So nobles will have to pay the highest while the farmers in the fields doing honest work will have to pay little.
I signed the papers related to the taxes and move onto the next set.
The next set of papers are related to the third ring wall. It will cost us 67 gold pieces. I signed it instantly and move onto the next.
After about a few hours of work I finally get to the paper that I really wanted to see.
The papers for Fort Dara.
This will be my greatest project. Not only will Fort Dara be the Key! For the humans to come back. It will also be a safe haven when things go bad.
Fort Dora will not only be a fort but also a research facility.
When Fort Dara is complete it will be impenetrable and will be able to withstand any attack sent it's way.
A cup of tea was placed in front of me and I jumped at its site. I could hear a familiar chuckle beside me as I heard Green Flames voice. “Someone’s been working too hard, I’ve been up for at least two hours“
I looked to the balcony and noticed that the sun was no longer on the horizon. “Oh, sorry I didn’t greet you. It’s just that I have a lot of work to catch up on”
“I know” she said “just don’t go work yourself to death. I don’t want my fiancé to leave me all alone to raise a kid single-handedly. I won’t be able to last a day.”
“Hey, don’t be so hard on yourself” I said to her. “It’s true that you’re not attached to him like me, but you will do great I know you will“
She gives me a smile and a peck on the cheek as she walks off to do her duties.
As I continue to finish up the paperwork and get everything signed I noticed a letter. There were two symbols the last one being the sun and the right one being the moon.
‘I wonder who it could be‘ I said sarcastically in my mind. ‘Seriously they don’t need this in the open, and someone could easily snag it up and tamper with the information.’
Deciding to ignore it for now I opened it up. Popped out a single Golden ticket with the words VIP First Class on it. On the letter it read
Dear Lord Doom
You have been invited to the Grand Galloping Gala. I have given you a VIP First Class ticket.
With the VIP Side you can have as many guests as you need for this year Grand Galloping Gala.
With the first class side you were able to have every beverage free along with your Guests. You are also able to skip the line.
You are allowed to bring as many guards as you need. I would not dare allow you to be defenceless.
Sincerely Princess Luna and Princess Celestia.
I put down the letter and looked at the ticket. ‘VIP First Class’ I thought to myself.
I heard Green Flame come in. “What you got there?” she asked.
“A ticket to this Gala thing, some sort of party.” I heard her come close and take a look.
“Oh the Grand Galloping Gala! That place is pretty fun” I looked at her confused.
“Recon mission” she stated simply I just let a little “oh” and start getting back to work.
She shakes her head with a chuckle and set a few more papers down.
I let out a little sigh and was about to continue working until green flame said. “Hey aren’t we going to be late for the noble meeting“
Realizing my mistake, I quickly down the tea and picked Green Flame up bridal style.
Instantly I zoomed off crashing through my door along the way.
(Ding) (Dong) (Ding) (Dong)
Realizing that we were late, I quickened my peace.
As we reached the courtroom, the nobles we’re already seated.
As I slammed through the door all of the nobles stared at us. I look down to Green Flame only to see her blushing madly.
I set her down on her hooves and walk to my spot.
“Excuses for being late. I was caught up in paper work.” I said to the Nobles.
As me and green flame took our seats I looked at the new room.
While the other Court room was good, we needed to increase size for the new nobles I summoned.
There is now 300 total with six factions instead of four. I was able to get proper names for each faction so now we can work well organized.
To the far right is the Military faction. They provide The funds for the military and focus on its weaknesses. Right now they’re focussing on the Navy and getting it more powerful.
To the left of that is Territory faction. They mainly focus on the growth of the kingdom and the best spots to put new towns, buildings and forts. Right now they are focussing on a new port and Dara.
To the left of that is the Population faction. Mainly focussing on the loyalty in the happiness of the subjects. Currently they are building a new park to increase the happiness of the population.
To the left of that is Negotiations and Trading faction. their main focus is to keep the peace with our surrounding neighbours as best as they can. They are trying to get back the money the nobles had scammed us in Equestria. So far no luck.
But at least we got rid of the debt that we owe the equestrians a long time ago.
To its left is The Research faction. Formally known as The Business faction. They try to focus on military, technology, alchemist and enchanting. In this time of peace they are focussing on technology the most. Hopefully with Fort Dora they can focus on two things at once.
The last one is Resources faction. They keep up-to-date with how much supplies we have and if there is enough supplies to focus on a certain task. Currently they are focussing on stone and wood for the Navy and Dara.
We instantly get to work. The common checks and questions came around as we worked to better the kingdom.
We were interrupted with a knock.
One of the Viking tanks guarding the door went to check on it. He poked his head back in and looked at me.
“It’s an envoy from the Pyrkagiá Kingdom has arrived.” I gave him a nod letting them know that it’s OK for The envoy to enter.
The Viking tank returned the nod and open the door. And in came a fiery spirit with a book in its hand.
He rushed down the steps and presented the book to me.
To my shock it was another summoning book. It was bright orange and I had the exact same symbol on my book.
“King Ea wished for me to give this to you he said that it belongs to you and you alone.” He said in his echoey voice.
"Thank you." I replied and grab the book. I was temporarily blinded by the light. as my vision regained I looked at my book. As I look at the new summons they were quite costly. In fact the book was titled the Operators.
The Spy
To know the enemy is the key to victory. Spies are men who have practiced and mastered the art of sabotage and infiltration. While not good in combat his ability to change race as long as it is humanoid in the figure, like the thief, can leave him in an area for months without alarm.
attack: level 3
The Assassin
Who knows when he needs someone to disappear. Assassin’s are the symbol of fear. Assassin’s are complete opposites to their brother the spy. For they mastered the art of stealth and assassination. Equipped with many weapons they are known for never missing their target.
attack: level 10
The Diplomat
sometimes talking is the best solution. Diplomats are known for their kindness and aggressiveness. They were known for being able to travel farther distance and quicker than an army known through history. Whenever they are at the meeting they hold all the cards. They know what to say and how to say it.
attack: level 0
The Merchant
You’ll never know when you’ll need a merchant. The merchants are very loyal and disciplined. With a quick glance they will know the exact cost of any item. Who knows who will try to scam you this way you’ll be able to save money.
attack: level 0
The Divine Follower
Many have forgotten our God, it is time he has risen once again. The Divine Followers aren’t loyal to only one and that is The Divine and his descendants. Where ever they go cheers will follow. They bring hope to the people and remind the army who they’re fighting for.
attack: level 0
Sing that I have a little bit over 500 summoning points I decided to get one of each.
The room was engulfed in light as five new figures appeared.
The Spy, Assassin, Diplomat, merchant, and Divine Follower appeared in the room. They looked around the room curiously wondering where they were. One by one they’re eyes fell upon me.
The Assassin and the Spy shown respect through their eyes while giving a polite nod. The Diplomat gave me a kind smile as he bowed respectively. The Merchant played with his moustache as he gave me a smirk while saying the words “M’Lord“
The Divine Follower had... Umm... a different reaction.
The divine follower drop to his knees while shouting the words. “At last his greatness has summoned me!” his hands shot to the sky as he spoke to the heavens while continuing his speech. “I am forever in your debt oh great one! For you have saved me, like you have saved all of us! Your greatness is truly amazing! From this day forth I will be loyal to you, and you alone my Lord! And those who do not follow your wishes may they be found guilty for your words of law and true for that is a fact! And no one shall say otherwise for not only do they disrespect you but they disrespect the Divine May you cast them into Tartarus for their crimes for only you and you alone is the one true king of this land!”
The entire room was silent. This guy reminds me of... someone. They talked just like him and would always “shout“. “Umm... greetings! I am king Alexander Doom. I am… pleased, that you know so much of me Divine Follower…”
“Gilgamesh! I am honoured that you would praise me worthy to give you my name Long may you rain!” He answered.
“Uh... yes! But please stand if you are a Divine Follower then there are rules that you must follow.” I said nervously. Never did I have to deal with a guy like this.
“Anything for you the great Summoner!” He replied in earnest
“Rule number one I do not wish you to treat me so great.” The rule stunned him as he looked at me.
“I have not earned such a praise yet. If someone was to be screaming to the heavens while saying such things it would dishonoured me.” I continued.
He begin to think and drop to his knees again this time placing his hands and head on the ground to. “You are right! oh how you are right! Please my Lord have mercy on me for in my haste to serve you I have crossed the line! May you ever forgive me!”
The whole room looked dumbfounded. I looked at green flame who just gave me an “I don’t know” look
“Umm… It’s fine” I said. “Rule number two, stop talking like that. If you want to work for me you will do so as a friend not as a servant.”
He will tell me read to continue his rant but I gave him a look that said “don’t. you. dare!”
He stayed quiet and took a breath. “I will try my best great one. Excuse me, but is like a muscle memory whenever I see talk or hear about the great one and his young”
“That’s fine” I said “just don’t go shouting at everyone you see.”
“Anyways, what is the rest of your names” I continued.
The spy stepped up “I am, Leonardo. And this is my brother, Kamehameha.” The assassin gave me a nod. “Do not worry about him he is always quiet.” I nodded back showing that I was alright with the whole ordeal.
The diplomat stepped up and Bowed with one hand in front and one in the back showing his respect. “I am Nicolás.”
And finally the merchant. Instead of bowing or nodding he had a bag in his hand and kept tossing it up and down. His eyes still shined with respect so it didn’t bother me.
“Greetings my Lord I am Eugene. And it will be a pleasure working-“ he was cut off by Gilgamesh.
“By the divine show at least a little bit of decent respect!” Gilgamesh shouted.
“I am showing respect... my way” that seem to hit Gilgamesh the wrong way.
“Why You-!” “Gilgamesh that’s enough!” I interrupted “thank you Eugene. As for you Gilgamesh, remember what I told you. I am able to handle myself as well”
He put his head down in shame “forgive me, my Lord“
“You are forgiven now if you excuse me I have-“ just then a dark figure burst through the door knocking down both of the Viking tanks.
The dark figure seem to be wearing a black cloak and was surrounded by dark magic covering him in a layer of shadow.
He quickly scanned the room and laid his eyes on me. We locked eyes as a speed that I haven’t seen besides me and he rushed forward.
No one could do anything as he zoomed by them so I had to grab the nearest hard object and protect myself.
I quickly reached for an object and found something hard, without any time to process what I grabbed I brought it up to cover me.
It raise a dagger and charged forward. Just then I noticed what I had grabbed and realized my mistake too late.
He brought down the Dagger and it went through my book causing a bright light to cover the entire room.
When the lights dimmed I saw a 4 foot person on the ground. It’s seem to be a girl but what was odd is that she was a fox!
Seeing a fox when they’re supposed to be extinct shocks me. I then saw that she had the book that got started. The knife is still through the book and I was nearly at my breaking point.
A few more soldiers came rushing in and one tossed me my sword. We quickly surrounded her so that she couldn’t escape. I could feel my anger boiling inside of me.
She started to come to and look directly at my sword. She set down the knife and spoke. "Nice sword, could you kindly point it away from my neck?"
That’s when I snapped I could hear more guards coming but I didn’t want to wait. I didn’t have time to wait!
I charged directly at her fury in my heart and soul. The only thing racing through my mind was ‘Kill. Kill! KILL! KILL! ’
she jumped out of the way and landed on the other side of the room. Funny how assassins will run away when their plan goes to shit.
Not wanting her to get away using my speed I zoomed behind her. I heard the words "ok, ok, so your mad yes let's talk about it...?" ‘talk, oh we’ll talk when your head is on a pike!’ I thought.
“Look behind you” I replied, noticing she didn’t realize that I had gone behind her.
She flinched as she asked “should I really?“
‘So we got a joker well why don’t you check out my ‘punch-line” I thought. I drove my fist into her back, sending are flying across the room to the other side breaking a few chairs.
‘I had to use a lot of force in the punch what is she a tank… what’s a tank?’ I thought confused.
“Dang… Nice hit.” is she mocking me?
I jump to The other side sword facing forward ready to impale her. As my blade strike it’s seem to bounce off her. I constantly attacked her even though it wasn’t doing much to her armour.
With quick motion, that I thought I only had, she pushed the sword making it strike down fast enough to stick into the ground. That’s why katana sucks sometimes. She said mockingly "Whoa there sonny, we seem to have ourselves in a pickle."
I noticed that she didn’t have a defensive stance so I took this moment to strike. I bashed my head against the snout the one weakness every animal has. Seeing her arms fly forward while being unbalanced I grab them by the wrists. In a motion I leg sweep her so that she is completely and utterly screwed.
I pinned her hands above her head while facing her. "Ouch, hey now watch the face." She just gave me a smirk as if what she did was funny. Was it funny to her to ruin the lives of millions. Was it funny tour to stop the expansion of the human race! Was it funny to her that I failed my mission to protect everyone!
now she has a faceless expression. “No…” I said out loud “you don’t get to change your mind now... not after all the lives you ruined”
She still just stood there not moving.
“Answer me Bitch!” I punched her in the side of the face and then again then again and again.
I’ve completely lost into rage that I didn’t see the room get out of here. I bet they probably think I’m gonna turn into that red psychopath.
Eventually after hearing your so much blood was starting to come out of her nose and a mouth.
“no, I’m not done with you yet” I healed her face and then continued doing it at least three times before my rage finally settle down.
I was breathing heavily tears in my eyes I could hardly see in front of me. “Why?” I asked “why did you have to take everything from me?”
(Meanwhile) (Third person POV)
Moon caused a flash bang to engulf the room so that she could try to escape or explain herself. Or so she thought.
She began to notice that the room hasn’t changed a bit. In fact it looks like a white field going endless in every direction like something shes seen before.
She was still laying there no longer feeling the weight of Alex. Then a face appeared. It had eyes and teeth but that was it. “Hello~” it’s said in a deep booming voice.
She look directly at it as she spoke. "Ello, you seem... Lovely." She said, not knowing what to say.
It’s seem to find funny her confusion“Hmm ha ha ha HAHA” it laughed uncontrollably. A body begin to form making the shape of Alex. “I can tell that you feel no threat from me but that is only because I’m only using a fraction of my power.” It spoke to her. Suddenly the room explodes with power that would make a God weep... but there still something holding its full potential back.
She blinked before smiling "Good thing I'm not a god then."
It just circled her, leaving one finger on her shoulder and tracing it “True but when it comes to all three of us you stand no chance.You’re lucky Alex haven’t found his true power yet.”
"Maybe… but, you fail to realize what your stare at." She snapped her fingers warping everything to normal. "Reality is my Playground, and everything else my toy." She puts on a thonk face. "And besides, I wasn't supposed to be here I believe."
To which it replied “First of all, correct I wasn't supposed to be here for a while but you forced my hand” then it began to have a sinister look. “Everything you say is your toy. HAHAHAHAHA!” It laughed mockingly. It disappeared and appeared behind her “foolish child where do you think you are” she look around but you notice that no one is around. She heard it suddenly speak behind her. “Reality may be your playground. But the mine, body and soul, is all mine!” Moon looks around but the voice is nowhere in sight.
“Besides why must I fear something that’s bleeds” is the last thing she here before waking up.
Alex is on top of her with a pissed off expression seemingly had wiped off the tears off his face.
(Alex’s POV)
She finally looked at me and gave me a smirk. "Ok I gotta admit, that was fancy. But let's cut the chatter, we're the Hel am I."
I nearly threw a bag full of punches at her again. But luckily for her I need answers. “Are you trying to play dumb!” I scream in her face. “Why did you try to kill me!? Why are you a fox!? I thought yo- our Race was supposed to be extinct!? And last question what are you talking about!?”
She narrowed her eyes at me "the last thing I remember is being on a diplomatic mission with Chrysalis, the emotional queen of changelings, and a huge ass white horse with pink hair." She huff out of her nose pointedly, "And no race forever disappears."
This bitch was getting on my nerves… did she say Chrysalis. I hear a gasp behind me. I see Green suddenly runs away?
‘Right... past trauma... now I hate this bitch more’ I thought to myself.
“So you work with chrysalis?“ I Says, Then picks her up as if she weighed nothing. “Then you’ll find lovely acquaintances in our new dungeon.”
Now underneath my left arm I begins to walk to the front door where she came from.
She blinked.
She smacked her lips.
"Yeah no, you see I'm a little more to handle than you think." She quickly teleport far ahead of me in a non threatening stance "let me introduce myself." My eyes narrow ready for an attack
"I'm Moon, or officially Bader, I've gone through a lot the past 72 hours and among those feats is slaying a Sand Devil." She form some sword out of nowhere stabbing the tip into the ground. I get more in a defensive stance. "I don't know what assassination you speak of, as I was sitting not even twenty minutes ago without an arm in a firefight." I rest my stance knowing that she won’t attack me for some reason now. I dropped my sword so I’m completely defenceless why would she not attack now.
"And I don't know where I am, but one thing I know is that this is not the floor I was laying on five minutes ago, make that six minutes ago." She look over to me lazily as She stand there.
“If you didn’t have an arm then how do you have one now. Your story isn’t adding up” l narrow my eyes.
"I could simply say magic, but I doubt that would be appropriate for the situation. Also if I'm guessing correctly, the assassin was using a knife... that's currently embedded in this book?" She pull out my book with a knife in it out of nowhere.
"It feels magical, and faintly connected to you and some others... so it's either bound, or it's a summoning book." She tosses the book back to me leaving the knife in it. "I wouldn't just pull that knife out without preparation, magic is quite finicky."
“How did-!? You know what! I’m not even going to ask” I closes my eyes and takes a deep breath. ‘none of this makes sense I need to figure out what’s going on.’ I thought to myself.
I instantly stood up straight without my defensive stance. If I’m going to want information I need to be nicer. For all I know she could be innocent. Isn’t there something called “innocent until proven guilty.“ whatever, it’s not important.
I placed the book on my chest where it gets absorbed onto it, leaving only the symbol on the book on my chest. There is still the crack where the knife went through, and knife kind of just bounced off falling to the floor.
“I am lord Alexander Doom” I introduce myself while giving a bow. I stands up straight and continues “my prime objective here is to reassure that the human race comes back and possibly better than ever. You are currently in my capital and the room you are in is called the courthouse.”
“But until we can verify that your claim is true will you please come with me.” I reaches out my hand gentlemanly.
"Ah such a gentleman." She replies as she calmly takes my hand as if the whole ordeal never happened.
I lead her down a few hallways making us go deeper into the mountain that we live on. I notice she tries to stand on her tippy toes, is she trying to reach my height.
I create a note with my magic and send a telepathy spell to Eric to meet me in the interrogation room.
I right on the note everything that happens, the girl name moon doesn’t seem to notice as she’s trying to stand on her tippy toes. Got admit it’s kind of cute in a way.
As we finally make it to the interrogation room I see Eric waiting outside. See his new hand that is Iron, that was made from John so that he can hold the sword and his eyepatch that he doesn’t show around alot.
I let go of Moon hand to whisper into Eric‘s ear and pass him the note. Moon just stares at us and as I finish up Eric leads her inside. “If you would, Miss Moon” he said opening the door for her.
She walks in as she replies with “OK, Captain” me and Eric look at each other not knowing how she knew his rank but I decided not to put up with it today and shrug it off.
Eric close the door as I decided to wait outside. Just then Lee showed up. He Bowed respectfully and looked at me. “Sorry to bother you sir, but there are some matters that you need to attend to.”
I already knew what it was so I might as well get it over with. “Lead the way Lee“ I ordered him.
We made our way back up the palace to the training yard. Noticing at least 100 men slacking off. I let out a frustrating sigh. This is been The third day in a row. Ever since they easily won the war they’ve been slacking off thinking that every battle will be just as easy. At least all of them are recruits and not the veterans
I give them special secretive training.
I walk forward and they all notice me.
“So of you been slacking off, mind telling me why?” I asked them politely, to give them a chance.
“No offence Sir,” said an archer. “But your training in full armour doesn’t cut it. How will it help us in anyway besides slow us down and not make us stronger.”
Yep now it’s time for a special training.
“Here’s the deal boys… and very few girls. If you can land a single hit with one of your have weapons and drawing blood I will personally give you each a royal meal.” I said.
They all look at me thinking that I’m going to be an easy task. Oh boy were they wrong.
(Eric’s POV)
I was in the interrogation room with our suspect. I couldn’t believe that I was staring at another fox but I had to keep my composure. I looked at the paper and sighed. Some of these questions were just stupid but it’s my ass on the line if I don’t ask them.
Before I could say anything she leans back on her chair. “So what you going to ask?” she asked.
“Be careful!” I shout “that chair is very…”(crack) The chair nearly broke “unstable”
She set back the chair and Says "yes, I'll be careful... very weak chair..."
I let another sigh, why do I always get stuck on interrogation duty.
I look at the paper One last time before starting my questions. “So you’re a magic user?” I asked.
She shrugged. "you could say that..."
‘What the hell is that supposed to mean’ I thought. “Then I’m going to have to ask you to put these on.” I brings a Gold necklace with a black crystal and a black ring and offer it to her.
She finally replies after taking them. "Ok... these seem kinda fancy."after she puts them on the enchanted items do their work.
“I’m gonna ask you questions and answer them honestly. The necklace you have around you is enchanted so no one can get away with a lie. The ring you have on is a magic inhibitor. It is only temporary and I can deplete God tear magic so don’t go and try to escape. It’s only temporary and if you answer all honestly then you’ll be free to go. Sound like a deal?” I tell her.
She replies with a calm look on her face "Ok, I don't really see a reason to lie..."
I could see that she was a little irritated so I replied “We’re just making sure miss. Anyways answer each question slowly to not confuse the necklace.”
“What is your name, age, race, and sex?” I asked.
She replies swiftly but yet slowly "My names Bader... I'm 16 years of human age... currently Female."
I ignore the fact she didn’t say her race but I can clearly see that she’s a fox.
“All right... are you the assassin that attacked his Majesty Alexander doom? If you are not do you know the assassin?”
She rested her hand on the Table "if I was the assassin. I would have used something other than a knife." She tap her finger on the table slightly. "No I don't know em, but I got some theories on were they could be."
Seeing her get irritated I tried to calm her down. “I’m sorry ma’am. I’m just following protocol. But it would help if you could give us a theory of where they went.”
"I won't discuss this without..." she then stops, I guess she didn’t realize that Alex wasn’t here. "Without Doom here." never heard someone call him by his last name before.
“Well then I guess you have to tell him after because we have a couple more questions.” I looked at the paper. “You said you were associated with Queen Chrysalis?”
She takes a second to reply. She shrugged again "In a way."
‘What’s with all the secrecy’ I look down at the paper again and I asked the stupidest question. “Do you know if she’s planning on invading our land? are you a spy?”
"No, I can't explain it to you exactly, but she won't invade." She lay both her hands on the table. "if I was a spy, which I'm not, would I try to assassinate him in a room full of people?" She lean farther on the table.
I feel a little hostility but I don’t flinch as part of my training “i’m sorry ma’am, but I must ask these questions if I do not it’s my ass on the line. Please don’t take it personal. Besides it’s the final question.”
She giggles a bit "not mad, it just seems kinda... stupid to try assassinating in a room full of people, no I'm not a spy." She lean back a bit once more "it depends, will I have to become one?" Her muzzle sets in an unemotional position.
(Snap) The chair finally broke. She falls back, bashing her head against the ground.
“Ooh ouch... that hurts a bit."I don’t think someone so clumsy could be a threat. And if they are, Alice could probably handle them.
“I’m gonna go with no” I says. I stands up and started walking towards her. I reaches my right hand out and says. “My name is Eric a disciple of Alexander Doom.” I takes off my helmet with my left hand showing my young face no older than 19.
She sits up and grab my hand pulling herself up all the way "thanks, as before I'm Bader, or Moon, nice to meet you Eric." She grab my forearm in greeting.
“Now about that theory” (ka-boom!) The whole room shakes as us both are lifted up in the air and land on our feet. “I can take you to Alex now” I said not bothered by the explosion.
"Ok that would be nice, you guys making a new window?" She ask letting me lead.
I put back on my helmet As we go down the hallway, I looks at her in confused “no we don’t make them windows. We trade off the Equestrian for iron. There’s a lot of iron here so we trade some to get more things. That explosion was probably some discipline Alex is giving some of the new recruits. Or it could be the gunpowder factory that was recently installed.”
She grins a bit "Gunpowder factory ey? Been awhile since I've heard that." She walk along.
“Yeah we’re trying to recreate it. The person who made the damn thing ran away when they lost the war. we asked a few guards and soldiers from the Mide Army but only the king knows and he’s dead.” We continue in silence until we see light come from a doorway as I opens it up and we notice a field of craters and a pretty broken wall.
She snaps out of her daze "...Y'all making dynamite or cannons?”
I looks at her confused “nope this is average discipline.”
She looks at me "so you toss something explosive at them until they don't flinch or...?"
“Nope he just punches them... and kick... A little bit magic... it looks much worse than what it actually is.”
"Have any died so far?" She looks around the field for them.
They start coming out of the craters seeming to be buried into them. “No he gives each one a magical shield to take them from the damage. He only does this to troops that don’t train and refused to follow orders. It actually helps them for when they’re going to battle they don’t fear the enemy as much as they fear his discipline. With magic to get rid of nightmares so that they not hunted by the images that they seen. It’s proven to be effective seeing our soldiers do not fear the enemy no more. While it may be horrifying to watch it’s necessary in order to keep the kingdom stable.”
"Oh, seems reasonable." She tap her foot lightly. "So when does he finish up?"
Just then a purple sphere covers the entire training ground and things begin to fix itself. Shattered armour, craters and the walls. Alex is seen giving a lecture to the hundred soldiers that he just disciplined. They instantly saluted and went to continue on with their day. As the last soldier left Alex collapsed.
"Should we wait a bit longer or..." She say putting a hand on her hip.
“Your majesty!” I shout as I runs towards Alex
She run along with me "aw shite, he's fallen" aI couldn’t tell if she was concerned or mocking him. but I’ll find out later.
I look at his Black fur which is now gray as it is the sign that his magic is completely drained. “Shit” I say out loud. Alex you damn fool.
The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 11: Two Souls In Need)
Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter. The Summoner Act One: The Battle For Britannia
(Chapter 1 after three months)
Author's Note
Sorry for not posting in a while but here is act one 😅
(Chapter 1 after three months)
(Chapter 1 after three months)
I was in the middle of a forest and it was Quiet… too quiet…
(twang)
I quickly turn my head to the right and jumped 5 feet to the left. A arrow purest the spot I was in a few seconds ago.
I landed softly and quickly moved my sword to cut another Arrow coming at my head.
Again it was quiet… then all of a sudden The Arrows came from everywhere rapid firing.
I hold my ground and begin to Block every arrow with my sword.
The iron head arrows were no match against my… umm... whatever material sword.
Eventually the arrows stopped.
“We’re out!” Shouted a archer from the tree line.
“Alright that’s the end of practice!” I shouted back
Wait did you think I was in danger? Anyways after practice I decided to go back to the kingdom.
On my way out I passed by a tree that was holding up my bow Book and crown
(Stomach growl)
I could really use some of O’Neills soup again. He is the best chef in all the lands. Not once did he let me down with his fantastic cooking.
I begin to hear footsteps behind me. I turned around to see 2nd lieutenant Eric.
Over the months I begin to make a ranking system for the army.
“Ahh 2nd Lieutenant, how kind of you to join me” I said cheerfully.
“Good morning sir, I wish I could join you but I was ordered by Luke to bring you to him. The court and Luke is waiting for you.” Was the reply.
“All right son I’ll go... Hey make sure to tell O’Neil that I need some more of his fantastic soup.” I said giving an order
“Right away sir” he said running off.
‘if only we had Calvary’ I thought to myself.
I soon finish packing and started running off. I bring one of my arrows to think about last night.
I was trying to understand how I had unlimited arrows until I realize that they were connected to my energy. Meaning if I get tired I won’t be able to get many arrows, and the more arrows to fire then I will slowly begin to feel tired.
I put the air back and start really running now.
I was probably running a… maybe 100 miles an hour. It’s hard to tell when you’re not focussing and not realizing there’s a big rock in front of you.
…
…
…
Wait wh- (boom!)
(Green Flame POV)
“Hmmm Hmm Hmmm” I Humed to myself as I walked through the forest. I was glad at least one place in the world where they accepted changelings for who they were. Not only that but let them be there future queen.
Don’t give me wrong a few ponies have actually become my friends.
But right now this very instant it’s just me and killer. Currently I was picking flowers to lighten up me and Alex‘s room. Killer was there because he loved being my little Guard dog.
I was wearing a green shirt with blue jeans. I started growing a mean which Alex said looks good on me.
The new human kingdom in Equestria have making trading crazy. Even the money is going crazy!
So that’s why i'm out here. Being a future queen is hard! Everyone is expecting you to do well everything you do is known to everyone… well somethings Are left unknown.
Anyway! Constantly when I’m sleeping at night I have at least a headache. I’m just tired...I’m tired of everyone thinking that I’m going to do the best.
I’m going to make mistakes and I want them to realize that. I’m not even sure if my money idea will work.
I was relaxing until (boom!).
I stopped.
I looked a killer.
We both knew what happened.
Begin walking to the spot where I heard the boom. This is the fifth time this month that my idiotic Boyfriend smashed himself into a rock.
I walk to the spot to see him face first into a rock as usual.
“Hum hunmy” (hi honey) Alex said.
“Hey honey seems you're stuck in a rock again“ I said teasingly.
“Un knuoo” (I know) was the response
“Does the little fox want some help” I continue.
“Hunmy un swr tuo whuoebr iss lissuning un wull slunp yow” (honey I swear to whoever is listening I will slap you) he threaten.
“Alright, I’m helping, I’m helping” I quickly go behind him and start pulling him out. As usual I found my butt and he comes flying out hitting a tree and breaking it… Then…
Thank... You… said a quiet and beating voice.
(Alexander doom POV)
I get up from the broken tree, and walk over to Green Flame... who is laughing her ass off.
“Ha ha ha ha!” I said annoyed.
“Oh calm down I’m just teasing you” she replied.
I wanted to continue to be angry, but the sound of her voice Calmed me down.
“I’m sorry” I started “ it’s just… everything is coming at me at once. I have to make sure that the structures are build, food is prospering, we have money on the street, no one is homeless, The army isn’t slacking off… fuck I still have 2000 more summoning points! And I can’t fucking do anything about it because we have no-
(Slap!)
I felt a sharp pain on my left cheek
(Slap!)
I look at Green Flame who seems to be the one who slapping me. She noticed that I have noticed her and stopped.
“Honey” she said “I know things are stressful it’s going to be. Your kingdom is on the verge of rising and yet it’s on the verge of breaking. You’ve been too busy on taking both the jobs of governing and being a general. So how about you give me the governing and you focus on the army.
I wanted to retaliate but the pleading look in her eye forced me to submit. “OK... honey... OK…”
xxxxxxxxxx
We had made it back to the palace on time. We walked into the courtroom and waited for the other nobles.
of course this isn’t a real courtroom it’s just its name.
You see there’s five different spots in the courtroom. And the quart room is shaped like a dome.
The first spot is called the chair and is where the important people sit. And so far that’s only me and Green flame. This part of the courtroom is in the centre. Luke has his own spot just a few feet to the right. Used to only take notes and relay messages from other kingdoms, clans or anyone who wants to talk to us.
The other spots are called the factions
The first faction of the courtroom is to the right. It takes up a quarter of the room. This faction talks about the army, mainly what’s wrong with it and how I can help.
The Second faction is to the left of the second spot. It also takes up a quarter of the room. This faction talks about contact outside the kingdom.
The third is to the left and also takes up a quarter. This faction focuses on business and how can prosper.
The last one is my favourite. The fourth faction is about the people. This faction studies the loyalty and happiness of the people.
Me and Green Flame take our seats and wait for the-
(Ding! dong! ding! dong!)
In an orderly fashion three doors open up and 200 and Nobles walk in.
There is 50 in each faction.
“I would like to thank you all for coming” I said while standing up. “So Luke you have a very important message which we are going to have to wait”
“Understandable my Lord” said Luke.
“Anyways as usual the army faction you may go first” I said then sitting down.
Each of the factions have leaders who do most of the talking.
The army faction leader cole speaks “thank you my Lord… it has come to our attention that the footwear that we have is on needed and can be softer. This will help with travelling and comfort but will have no protection for the feet.”
It give me a minute to think about this one. On one hand the army may be happy and be able to travel faster. On the other hand they would be safer.
Well they’re more likely to get shot by an arrow or get hit in the body, arms and legs than the feet.
“it seems like the best course of action to have softer footwear. I accept!... now is there anything else that the Army needs.” I said
“No my Lord, that is everything” was the reply.
“OK. The contact do you have anything to discuss.” I said looking at the contact faction.
Their leader Rick stands up. “Yes my lord it seems like Equestria has moved all it’s forces to the border of the Griffon kingdom. If we ever get in trouble... we may not be getting their help for future battles”
I nodded my head “thank you for the report is there anything else”
“No my Lord” he said and then take Sit
“Already then the business faction you may speak“ I said looking at the business faction.
“We have nothing my Lord” replied a random person.
“Oh... OK then, people faction do you have anything to say” I said looking at the People’s action.
I love this faction because it helps people…. But right now, it’s only a pain in my ass.
Their leader Sarah stood up “A lot my Lord, The kingdom is low on funds and there is barely any room. We were unable to get enough gold to bring the kingdom to its feet. This kingdom isn’t enough for 40,000 citizens.
(Inhale) (exhale) “did anyone find any solution”
“No”
And then started the argument. Arguments went from lowering taxes to asking the equestrians for help.
I would’ve went to the equestrians... “again” but as soon as it was out of their borders it was instantly stolen.
Through all the arguing I didn’t hear a Green Flame trying to talk.
“I have an idea” said a quiet Timid voice that belong to Green Flame.
The whole room went silent and look at her. Green Flame was too nervous to speak.
“Go on Green Flame you may speak” I said reassuring.
“Well what if we put other metals?” And the whole room was confused. “Here let me put it this way” she started writing on a piece of paper.
1 bronze = 0.01
The whole room went silent... again… Green Flame had a nervous smile... and then the courtroom burst out laughing. Green flame had a look of embarrassment. I was laughing too and then said. “I can’t believe... it was so simple!”
The whole room was silent... once again…
“Think about it” I said “The whole time we’ve been trying to copy the equestrians on their gold idea. All that’s done is left us in their debt and we still don’t have a enough. What Green Flame said was the most brilliant idea I ever heard or read” The whole courtroom began to thinking about it. One by one their heads approved.
I look over to Green Flame hug her. “Awesome idea Green Flame” I whispered to her.
“Do you really think so?” was the reply.
I Kissed her on the forehead and said “of course my love. I knew letting you run the government what is the best idea for the king.”
She gave a cute smile and kiss me on the lips. “Thank you my love” she whispered back.
After about 15 minutes of hearing her talk more about the money problem, The nobles were starting to like the idea more and more. And why wouldn’t they! Each of them have at least a few hundred gold already, and that would turn their few hundred into a few thousand. Hell Some must have millions!
After that we finally addressed Luke’s problem.
“Thank you for waiting patiently Luke” I said.
“It was no problem my lord. Anyways” he pulls out at scroll.
Dear Lord Doom
The kingdom of Tuadmuma would like to invite you to dinner in your honour.
We are in desperate need for some good friends and we heard that you were expanding your kingdom greatly.
We will except military alliance or becoming your vassal.
We hope to see you soon... in the back there is a map.
From King Ea…
The room… went silent… again…
xxxxxxxxxx
I’m walking to my room. Me and the court have decided to make them my vassals. Took a lot of arguing and deciding... but it was finally done.
Green Flame had left earlier and I had no idea where she went.
I go to my room and opened it up. I took all the armour and weapons that were fit for ponies and made them fit for humans and foxes.
There’s a chest in the right back corner which I think has about 4000 platinum coins. There is a safe in left back corner which we are planning on putting the platinum coins in, but it’s filled with gold silver and bronze.
16,000 gold
Compared to Equestria… that’s fucking nothing!!! I see their fucking vault! They have at least 6 billion Gold coins!
Forward is the bed, to the left is the dresser and to the right is the balcony. I can see Green Flame on the balcony.
Quickly I sneak up on her and hug her from behind.
She jumped to my touch but then quickly return the affection.
“Do you have to go?” She asked even though knowing the answer.
“Unfortunately yes. I want there to be good relationships… so I must go” I replied.
“Alright... just promise me you’ll be safe”
“I shall my love... I shall”
