The green-eyed soldier
mystic mizu
He stands there, just staring at his tasteful victory. He knows that with his Escaflowne, his strong, loyal warriors, and indomitable strategies in war, he will never lose. He smiles down at the melef he just defeated.
'Pathetic' he thought. Nothing can withstand his knack in swordsmanship. He gets whatever he wants. He wants the soldiers of Moria to help him in his war, he shall get it. He wonders why King Alan keeps on refusing this great opportunity to be on his side on the war. Not only that he will be an ally of the country that has the greatest melef, but also, his country will be safe from destruction. He turns to return to his base, the fight was over, or so he thought. He can still hear striking of blades and scream of his men. He looked astern and saw a melef. He was surprised that his men can't bring down a single melef. He watches it, as it takes down his remaining melef one by one. He's very amused with this soldier, normally, you will run back to your base camp and fight another day.
Curious, he walked towards this soldier, drew his sword and clashed his blade against his. He took it as a sign of challenge, he seemed to accept it. He strike him once more, he blocked it. He's very impressed, not only that he has a knack in swords, but he's very strong too. But he saw his weakness, his guard is weak, blocking a sword up in the air makes his abdomen open and easy to attack. He hastily retrieves his position and hit his abdomen with the handle of his sword.
His back lies flat on the ground. He pointed his sword at him, being an honorable swordsman that his master taught him, he didn't attack him while his on the floor. He wouldn't want such a skillful soldier to die without the world knowing his name.
"Get out of your melef soldier." he didn't move, nor show any signs of obeying his orders. He's not insulted by his behavior, in fact, he's astounded of his loyalty to his country.
"There's no point on fighting, soldier." Within a few seconds, his melef opened. He was expecting a scarred, muscular in middle thirties man. But instead, a young, short-haired, teenaged girl came out of the melef. She gazes up at the Escaflowne with her calm green eyes.
AN: okay so this story is an AU. Van declares a war between Moria( OC? I guess, but I created this country, where Alan is the king.) there will be a lot of changes like family connections, then a lot of feuds, decision-making, sacrifices. Please review!!!
