Even starred down his father's lifeless head. The longer he looked upon it, sadness and anger grew in his heart, but something, most usexpected happened at that very moment. A white glow appeared around Even as tears ran down his cheak. His silver chain mail simmered in the light as the hole river was lit up. Besides the killing and fighting around him, Even felt at peace, but it was son interrupted by Grishnack's babbling.
"I thought Christian's didn't use magic." chuckled Grashnick.
"Even grinned up at Grishnack mocking him. "This is far more powerful then mear magic, this is God's blessing. God has blessed me with a pure heart and soul and you can never take that away from me."
"Maybe, but I can take the very life you breathe from those lounges of yours!"
Grishnack threw a spear at Even's chest! Even smiled as the spear seemed to disolve in front of him!
"What is this?!?" yelled Grishnack in anger.
"You will soon find out." replied Even as his sword and knife lit up with the same glow as his body.
"HA!! You want power? I'll show you what true power is!" yelled Grishnack lifting his black sword in the air!!
Red lightning encircled Grishnack as he was lifted up into it! He yelled in agony as his body was transformed into a far more evil being! Even stood in defence as he waited for Grishnack's new appearence. All of a sudden, a dark figure dropped from the red lightning Grishnack had been lifted to! The being was tall, with bulging muscles, and wealded a firery sword!
"Who or what are you?" asked Even still standing in defence.
"Why I'm shocked. Don't you recognize me?" asked the being.
"Grishnack?"
"Very good, little one! Now you will be the last thing you ever saw, and Enlgand will once again belong to the firery casmes of Hell!"
"Not if I can help it!" replied Even swing his sword towards Grishnack's neck.
Grishnack blocked the blow and countered!

Even and Grishnack faught with great skill as both were not able to touch eachother, until Even finally scored a blow to the arm! Grishnack yelled and stumbled back from Even. The power of God's blessing was overcoming his dark powers!
"Until we meat again, I will be more powerful then you can EVER imagen!" said Grishnack disappearing into thin air.
Even's glow began to sieze as he looked among his companions. They had beatin' the group of orcs and goblins, but the trolls had retreated back into the forest.
The King's of Ireland and Scotland had bravely prtected by the heavily wounded Borien. Even ran over to his old ally and began tending to his wounds.
Marion walked over to the edge of the river to wash her hands. The ahrder she tried to get the blood and dirt off of her hands, the more she began to cry, for the river itself had become thick with blood. All of a sudden, it began to rain as Marion sobbed even harder. She had never seen so many dead bodies. Rylan had introduced himself to the group and had agreed to go along with the others on their journey, for his group of men had unfortunetly slottered.
Even walked out to the middle of the river and cleaned his kinfe and sword.
"We leave immediatly, they'll most likely have rienforcements come." said Even hopping onto his white horse. The rest of the group did as Even commanded and continued their fast gallop to the Eastern shores of England.

Borien looked up at the Kings as they protected him from the orcs, and Goblins. My thanks my lords If I can ever repay you at all do not hesitate to ask. As Even ran twords him he felt a terrible ad ness knowing that his friend had lost his father and Kingdom in one night. Well your higness looks like we have great trials before us if I know Grishnack he will be sending out his people to blockade all the port cities of England, Wales, and Scotland so that we can't escape so what's the plan? Grishnack can't spread his forces to widely or his new Fortress will be undefended and Orc's and Goblins, and Trolls hate sunlight dawn will be here soon Even said as he fixed Borien up. Aye but Grishnack has many Dwarf and Men allies to streagthen his armies and they don't fear sunlight. But where shall we go as soon as word reaches the forces of evil on the mainland of Castle Winsar's fall Grishnack will recived legions of troops to conquer England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland. I'll finish tomorrow got to go to bed.

There was no time for introductions, as the enemies pressed in from both sides, but he couldn't help noticing that he was thrown into the King's lot, and Nyanie and Hyine were both looking at him in a funny way.

Ellome appeared out of nowhere, and he stared wide eyes at all the strangers around him.
"We'll sort it out when we're safe," Rylan whispered. Shrugging, Hyine hacked at a nearby globin.

Finally! The peeks of the castle came into sight. Rebecca smiled at the sight. She, Gidian and the Rough Boys, made their way to the castle gates. Bodies of Orcs and Goblins covered the ground. Rebecca noticed Arannte. She led Mystic over to Arnnate, and dismounted.

Henry washed his sword in the slightly clean water. He got himself ready for the long journey ahead of him.

Viorica mounted a horse, and rode off towards the castle.

Arannte stood over a slain Goblin, her eyes shut as she felt weariness wash over her in an unstoppable wave.

"Raun!" she heard the voice of Rebecca, and it snapped her out of her shock.

She opened her eyes and stared at Rebecca, and the latter hurried to Arannte as she looked like she might topple.

She leaned heavily on her sword, and with great difficulty she shifted her weight and smiled. "Hi." she said simply, and then she collapsed to a sitting position, her bloody hands resting on the pommel, and her eyes wary as ever.

Rebecca approached, a wry smile hovoring at her lips as she shoved a dead body aside. "Are you all right?" she asked, reaching out to touch Arannte's shoulder.

"Look around. Do you think I'm all right? In a few minutes, I will be, but I just need a pause."

Rebecca did look around, and beside the goblin that lay at her feet, there was a veritable mound of bodies surrounding where Arannte now stood, and she could see that a lesser mortal than her would have been killed immediately.

She smiled knowingly and knelt next to Arannte, who's breathing was slowing and becoming regular after the harsh, rasping gasps she'd been taking.

Rebecca took out a cloth and her canteen, washing the blood off of her friend's face and hands. She noted how Arannte didn't even wince when she bandaged them with thin linen or even when she pulled a pair of soft, fur gloves that still allowed her free movement of her hands.

"Thank you." came Arannte's grateful voice.

Rebecca helped her to her feet. "All right, my friend?"

"Yes, Rox--Rebecca. Very well."

Rebecca's eyes were grim as Arannte turned towards her slightly, her voice quiet and even. "I saw them again last week. They're searching for you."

Rebecca let this turn over in her mind, as she grabbed Mystic's reins and swung gracefully into the saddle.

"I'll go with you." (sp?) she said, a tinge of regret in her voice.

Rebecca's gloved hands rested on her horse's neck, Nightmare shied at the smell of blood but nickered in a friendly way to Mystic.

"C'mon," Even urged, and Arannte rolled her eyes at Rebecca and slipped her feet into the stirrups, grabbing the packhorse's reins.

Even and the others road on their horses relentlessly towards the Eastern shore. His mind was stuck on the fact his father was killed and that he was now the King of England. He didn't know what to do without his father there with him. His thoughts were broken by Marion.
"Even, we'll approaching a big rock formation in ten minutes, I suggest we rest there and mend our wounds."
"I agree, tell the rest of the group. I have no command over Rylan and his friends, so ask them what they wish to do."
"Yes, sir."
Even continued his concentration on the long road ahead. He'd have to buy a road map in order to find some short cuts that'll get them to the Easter shore faster.

Even woke up early that next morning to get a head start from Grishnack. Even stretched his arms and fingers and closed his eyes as the morning breeze blew against his body. Even walked over to William and leaned over his face. William's eyes slowly opened. William suddenly shreeked and jumped out of his covers with his knife drawn!
"Yikes, hey man. It's ok, it's me, Even." said Even approaching William slowly.
William scanned the rest of the group, who was awake, and set is knife back in his boot.
Even sighed and walked over to William.
"Sorry about that, guess I should've just nudged yuh in the shoulder, huh."
"Yah, you prabably should've." replied William pretty aggervated.
Twenty minutes later, the group was back on their horses at full gallop towards the Easter shore.

Later that day, the group was stopping at a creek to give their horses rest, when a loud low pitched roar was heard up the creek!
"What was that?" asked Cerebus.
"Nothing but howling wolves." replied Alagan about to hop back on his horse.
"No, something way larger then a pack of wolves." said William drawing his sword.
A hard gust of wind blew towards the group making the trees around them almost break and fall! The same low pitched roar was heard, but this time even loader!!
"Dragon?" asked Henry.
"Most likely, everybody, get ready! In order to defeat this, we're gonna have to work together!" said Rylan.
Even peared over at Marion. Her knifes were shaking and her body was trembling!!
"Hey, it'll be ok. God is on our side, and threw him, anything is possible. Including if it's taking down a dragon." said Even walking over to Marion.
"I don't know. You may be right, but it's a dragon. I'm still scared stiff." replied Marion.
Tears began trickling down Marion's cheaks.
"Look, if you want, you can go hide in the woods with the kings." said Even.
Marion just stood there weeping.
"If you want to stay and fight, I'll let you. I'm not going to make you do anything." said Even.
"I'll stay. I don't know why, but I just think I have to." replied Marion getting ready for the mighty beast.
"Well, if it makes any difference, I'll stand in front of you and make sure your safe." said Even walking in front of Marion.
Tears still trickled down Marion's cheaks.
Even stood in defence as the roars became loader. All of a sudden, a rain drop collided with his forehead and began trickling down his face. Even looked up into the sky and back to Marion. Even tried to remember a saying he had once heard when he was a child.

As the mere man cannot enter the flame and not be consumed, Even thought, find something that cries rain or tears, I can't remember.

His thoughts were interrputed with another roar, and it sounded like it was right in front of him!! All of a sudden, a raging river came rushing towards the group!! The river consumed the creek easily as it continued to run its course through the forest!

"What sorcery is this?" asked Loakin.
"It's probably Arhegan!" replied William.
Then, something unexpected happened! The river stopped flowing. It just stayed still, like it was frozen in time! The loud low roar was heard again!!
"It sounds like it's coming from the water!" said Henry.
Marion leaned her ear down to the water. Like a claw, the water reached up and lashed at her head!! Marion shreeked, and right when she did, the rain began to pour down harder! Her brother grabbed her and swung his sword at the watery claw!! The claw seemed to evapperate as the sword swept through it!
"Everybody, step back!" yelled Arrante picking up a rock.
Arrante lundged the rock into the water. Instead of making a small splash and sink, it stayed on top of the water, like it was floating!
"What the!" yelled Rose.
Even began to walk up to the water.
"What are you doing! You saw what it tried to do to Marion!" yelled William.
Even ignored William's outburst and kept his pase towards the water. The water roared as Even got closer and closer.
"What's he doing?" whispered Henry to Arrante
"I don't know." she whispered back.

Even raised his sword over his head. The others watched curiously. Even faced the tip of the sword down towards the water.
"I think I know what he plans." muttered Rose to herself.
Even thrusted his sword into the water! The water russled!! Waves and wirlpools formed in the middle of the river! Even backed up quickly to the safety of the others.

All of a sudden, the water began to take form of a wingless dragon! The group gasped as the watery dragon roared. Marion screamed as she clentched her palms against her ears. The rain began to pour harder as she screamed louder. Even looked back at her and back at the dragon.
"What kind of dragon is this?!" asked Loakin.
"It's a plain dragon. With the acception of the fact it's made of water, twisted with evil and magic. Only a few have ever been seen in this world." said William.
The dragon reared up on its hind legs in a pool of rushing waves and wirlpools as if it was going to flame!!
"Spread out!" yelled Even running behind the dragon.
The group ran around the dragon completely surrounding it! The dragon opened its mouth to reveal layers of teeth and a blue forked tongue. Out came a green acid, in place of a fire ball!
The acid nearly hit William as he dived to the side! William looked back to see a caved in piece of earth!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok, that's all I can really write right now. I'm not very good at writing battles. Let's keep this dragon alive for a while, not like for two days or even a day! But, just keep it alive, I mean, it's a dragon!! Not a little salimander!! Don't just shoot it in the throat and say it's dead, ok? I mean, let's get our characters injured, their not invincible!! Plus, it's made of water, it'll make it harder to kill! ;)

Meanwhile at Cirith GarGar Grishnack sat on his new throne. Before him stood ninty troll like statues they was as tall as a seven foot men, they had an ugly face it looked like an orc crossed with a hog they had two long curved tusks in their mouths. They was very muscular and looked like they could rip a full grown giant like a young tree. Excellent just as I ordered how many have our sculptors made? About nine thousand and another hundred on the way. Good then I shall begin the ceremony. Grishnack stood before the statues and shouted: MASTER CREATOR OF ALL EVIL I ASK YOU TO FILL ALL THESES STATUES WITH SPIRTS OF EVIL LET THEM BECOME ALIVE LET THEM BE AS STRONG AS GIANTS, LET THEM WALK IN THE SUNLIGHT. The sky around the castle darkened , red lightning flashed and thunder as loud as battle drums rang through out the land. The statues came alive all fifty thousand of them came alive. Yes! Grishnack yelled with delight my perfect army one that can walk in the sunlight. MY Ogroks! The statues roared filling all that heard them with dread. Yes my children your hungry eh? Well there are a few humans I want you to find one is a young man he is the one I want you can kill the others and eat them but bring me the young king. Alive and unspoiled

no actualy I got the ogrocks of a game called reverant they are a breed of ogres sorry if I made it sound like LOTR I intend to reduce the ogrock number to only a thousand and they are only playing a small role they are like a police force insuring that the inslaved humans of the United Kingdom are not rebeling that's all. And Goblins, Orcs, and Trolls can't walk in day light and Grishnack only has a few thousand Dwarves and men on his side so he needs a small army that will police the populace of Britan, Scotland, and Ireland.

Nightmare sprang back from the creek as the water wrapped itself around Arannte's legs.
The mare's ears were pinned against her skull, and her jet-black coat was plastered against her sides, and her glowing eyes burned with the fury that transformed her into Demon, the horse out of everyone's nightmares.
The horse let out a shrill trumpet, then drove forward into the water, biting, kicking and tearing.
"NIGHTMARE!" screamed Arannte, the water now up to her waist and a whip-like band around her neck, dragging her down.
The horse turned obediently, blood dripping from cuts and slashes on its flanks and shoulders. She galloped over to her mistress and snapped at the water containing her.
Freed finally, Arannte pulled her legs free and grabbed ahold of the reins and yanked.
Nightmare rolled her eyes and spun in a tight circle, lifting Arannte expertly into the saddle with her neck.
"Let's get out of here!" Someone shrieked, and just then the dragon spat acid at them, causing Arannte to fall from the saddle, her already wounded side aching with every step the horse took.
She felt herself leave the saddle, and then she hit the ground, fingers of agony reaching down her side and paralysing her leg.
Weak from the loss of blood, her memory went blank and she collapsed into darkness.
