During the battle, I was fighting for my very life out there. I kept on dodging while at the same time, slicing them down to size, and so were what is left of my zebras. We reinforced the gates, as the elephants and minotaurs were still holding it down with their bodies, and just as the battle was turning in our favor, another loud sound came up. I turned to see that it was no warbeast, it was a giant blimp with armor on the sides, big cannons on top and bottom, and it had a giant steam system inside it running on steam power. As so as I got my senses back, I realized it was above my elephants, I yelled out. "GET OUT OF THE WAY! THAT BLIMP IS GOING TO OPEN FIRE RUN!" And most of the elephants and minotaurs got out, but unfortunately some of them were caught in the explosion. I then turned to glider who was standing beside as she looked at me wondering 'whats the plan?' So I looked at the monster's structure feature, and it was most vulnerable at the steam core in the center of the blimp.

"Glider, I'm going to need you, and your warriors to fly me and my zebras up there to stop it!" She looked at me with disbelief and said. "What are you crazy?! You will die up there, and plus I you can't fly!"

"I know glider, but we have little choice, if we don't take that thing down, the whole capital will be destroyed. I have a torch on me, I will wave it to you to come pick me up, and that way you know where to help me." I said convincing her as she turned to me while nodding, so it was decided.

"Alright, those of you that are still fit to fight form up!" She ordered her surrounding followers to join up with me, and my bodyguards. "King chris here has a plan of attack, we are going to fly them to that blimp to destroy it, but its not going to be easy. Those big cannons mounted on the blimp will try to shoot us out of the sky, but most of all watch out for caribou archers as well. After we get them on board the rest will be up to them for the sake of our race's freedom, now get ready!" After that glider started to fly with me in her arms, and I got to say for a princess she sure is strong, but yet again she is a griffon so not surprise. The other griffons were flying with my warriors in their claws as we were making our way towards the blimp, it didn't take long for them to notice us right away. One of the cannons were aimed at me and glider, but with enough time we dodged those cannons firing at us, and so did our warriors just barely. We were now half way there, just before we got closer, caribou archers were lining up to take aim towards us.

"Open fire!" One of the caribou archers commanded, as arrows began to rain on us from the side, and one of those arrows struck my robe. Thankfully that it didn't hit my shoulder plate which I still feel pain by the way, another volley happened, and this time it got on of the griffons in the head, making him drop my zebra warrior to his death. We were almost there just 18 wing flaps to go, just before I got a good foothold, I was shot in the leg with an arrow, and glider took out her small crossbow loaded to shoot the caribou in his skull. I was place on the base area of the blimp as I took out the arrow that I was hit with, and glider gave me a healing herd which patched up my open wounded.

"Are you ok?" She asked with worry as she examined my injury.

"I'm fine." I answered getting back up. "My men will take out this machine, while you provided air support by taking out the infantry with your fire bombs. And if you lose too many, pull your troops back the first chance you get understood?"

"Are you giving orders to a princess?" She asked with a cocky attitude while she had a smirk look on her face.

"Just do what you have to do princess glider, and my troops and I will take care of the rest, now go!" I ordered her as she took off in the sky with her body guards by her side. I turned to my 23 elite soldiers.

"Alright listen up! We are going to take out the steam core which is powering the ship! Our allies will provide support, but only at a certain point of time, so be careful, and don't die. Lets move!" I said drawing my sword out, and so did my men, it was dark, could hardly see where you are going, and even with the lanterns its still hard to see with the snow blowing in. We were making our way towards the steam core room, but first the control room to find out where exactly it is, and as we made our way our we heard a loud sound outside the hull. It was glider throwing powerful looking fire bombs, but these ones are more powerful than what the griffons were using previously, and I spot the sign inside the room glider just bombed. I looked to see it was the control room, with dead bodies of caribous burning filling the air with a foul oder, but before I could go in I saw a caribou guard armed with a halberd. I decided to play stealth, so I ordered one of my guards to take out his dagger, I then took out my iPhone to play a warhorn sound effect to distract him. It sounded like a stone age type of warhorn you can hear from miles across the icy mountains, and it distracted him just for my zebra to throw it at his torso to slowly kill him. As he fell I burst into the room to see a scroll sitting at the end of a long table, I took a look at it, and was shocked to say the least.

To general horn crush

By my decree, I king dainn stonehoof order you to attack the minotaur's homeland, and force the king of their race to submit to us. Destroy their monuments, their buildings, and kill those who dare to attack us. At the end of this that monkey claiming to be a king will be the last thing we will have to face. And by the end of this equestrian will be ours for the taking, plus after you destroy bold brass, feel free to take the king's daughter as your prize breeder.

From king dainn

I was shocked to hear such words, I will not just kill them, I'll hurt them. Like Lincoln clay from mafia 3, I will rob dainn of his property, then his life, and put that reindeer impersonating son of a bitch to the dirt. Right now I was focused on finding the core, just before I looked towards the exit, one of my warriors called out to me.

"My king! I found information on blimp!" He said handing me over the paper. I got a good look at it, and it says the steam core is in the center of the blimp, which is mostly well armored up. There seems to be a staircase leading to the core, and were above it.

"Good work, its right below us so lets hurry, our troops are being slaughtered down there!" I yelled out, as we made our way down there, we were than ambushed by caribous from the sides of the walls of the machine, some were armed with tools as weapons. I began my attack, but as soon as I drew my sword out, they charge at me, and my warriors. Some of them killed one of my guys with a wrench, while another was stabbed by a screw driver in the eye hole, and then I stabbed the caribou that killed my guys, it was turning into a massacre. My guys were fending them off with the short stabbing spears I gave them, and it was working pretty effectively. One caribou came at me with a crowbar in his hand, but I managed to parry his attack, and I then stabbed him in the back. The caribou were afraid to fight back now, so they turn tail to flee as we chased them down killing them one-by-one, and then we reached the core room. I looked around it see a fire bomb looking like a tnt stick ready for detonation, so I then ordered my troops to find more of this stuff, and they
search everywhere bring me a whole crate full of this stuff. Now all I have to do is light this, and the battle will be decided.

"Alright everyone run to the top of the blimp! Princess glider and her soldiers will be waiting outside!" I said wrapping the tnt sticks together.

"But, we can't leave you my king! You're too valuable to lose, and if you die than our country will once again fall to chaos!" I said to me as I put my hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, from the looks of the fuse here, it appears to give me enough time to get off, and with luck I should be able to get to the control room again to directed it away from the city when it crashes." I said as the rest of the group now were rushing to the surface, as I got the fuse lit, I ran to the control room with hast. The zebras have got to the top waving for the griffon soldiers to pick them up, luckily they did, and as soon as they got off, I was in the control room steering the blimp away from the city. I saw an open area outside the city, and then the explosion destroyed the core causing me to jerk forward hitting my head against the wheel. As I regain bearings, I saw the ship burning in mid air, so there was no time to lose, as I now punched the speed power forward it was moving at high pace. I decided now after it was done I rushed to the top of the blimp with a torch in my hand lit up.

"I'm over here! Hey! Hey!" I yelled out hoping a griffon would see me or something, just then a female griffon landed right in front of me with a smirk on her face.

"Need a ride my king?" She asked offering her talons above my hands.

"Of course, lets fly." I said as she grabbed me as we took off, leaving the burning zeppelin in the crash course towards to wide open space, and a few minutes later it blew up like the forth of july. After that I was gently placed in front of iron hoof, his daughter flora, and princess glider with smiling faces.

"Chris, you did it!" Glider said as she rushed to hug me tightly causing the crowd around us to cheer in victory. After that she let go of me, as I turned to face iron hoof and flora.

"You honor me with your bravery here today, and I want to say I'm sorry for what I said last time. Could you forgive the old fool?" He said offering me his hand, so I decided to shake his hand.

"Of course my friend, we are only living creatures with emotional feelings, I can understand, and you now have friends outside your walls to help you at any case. I do show honor and loyalty, and I intend to prove it at times." I said as I looked at flora now, as she gave me a big bare hug smothering me with her body. I felt really rough like, and at the same time very smooth with her fur brushing against my skin.

"Thank you so much chris we are so indebted to you." Flora said happily as she continued to hug me tightly in her arms, until glider interfered.

"Ahem! Uh he is still injured, so let him go, and let him rest!" Glider said with an angry look as flora realize, and decided to free me. As soon as I was letin go, glider ordered her guards to take me to the infirmary at once, and so they did.

1 day later

It was night time again, as I laid in bed healing my injures, some of my fellow warriors would come to check on me. Wheat and puzzle were the first to see my condition, and puzzle gave me a wooden carving of mother's tribal mark as a gift, which I accepted. Wheat decided to say that after the battle she plan to retire, but not leaving her daughter, and decided to be my adviser in the kingdom which I fully agree on. She also said that to increase the bonding to the giraffes, she said her daughter always wanted to marry me since they heard my name, and I agreed to that too. Puzzle kissed my cheek from her standing 10 feet away, while giggling to herself, and her mother followed her out the tent.

Just then before I got back to sleep I saw glider standing above me with a sour expression.

"Uh hello?" I said in a weird way.

"Hello yourself longneck lover." She spatted out in a nasty tone with a hint of jealousy in her words.

"How long were you-"

"More than enough to hear that old hag say that her daughter to marry you since they heard of your deed, and the way that longneck kissed you. Eww!" She said in disgust as she interrupted me.

"Well, whats it to you?" I asked bluntly

"Its because it is my job to make sure you don't fool around with any females without my approval."

"What are you talking about? Were not even married!" I said making her turn to me with a puzzled look.

"Wait, wait, wait! You mean to tell me you never heard of how my species culture of marriage works?"

"Uh no, is it like how you prove your a capable male to a female type of marriage?"

"Yes it is, but there is also another reason I came here." She said handing me an envelope with razorbeak's crest stamped on it addressed to me personally. I took it, and read it out loud.

Dear King Chris the first

I heard the caribou were planning to attack bold brass, and I rushed to get as much available warriors as possible to aid the minotaurs, and you with my daughter as your aid in the defense. When she gives you this letter, it is another thing I'm giving you to strengthen our alliance, if you proved to be worthy of her, and by my judgement too. You and her will not only fight together from now on, but you will be married to her the moment I approve of both of your relationship. Be good to her, comfort her when she needs it, and most importantly don't let her catch you with our females, she has a very jealous temper with the last griffon that was with my daughter.

Sighed King Razorbeak Clawfoot

I looked back at her giving me a sly grin on her face.

"What are you going to do?" I asked her with a nervous tone backing away, but she stopped me with her talons.

"Nothing my king." She answered sweetly like. "I just want to get closer to my husband, and warm him up with my own set of pillows." She finished her sentence in a saucy tone as she got into my bed while rubbing her arms against my chest. So I was like screw it, as I laid down next to her sleeping the night away.
