Prologue Part 1

England late 5th century, 24 miles northwest of Camelot

This forest is so thick thought the boy as he walked down the narrow dirt path. The trees beside him rose like pillars.

"How much further do we have to go?" he asked the armored knight walking in front of him.

"There's a clearing up ahead." replied the knight. "That is where we are going to set the trap. And in the future don't forget to call me proper when you speek to me."

"Sorry Sir Darek." said the boy.

This boy was about ten years old, and was squire to English Knight Sir Darek, one of the knights of King Arthur's round table. His hair was long enough to hang past his shoulders. It was blonde with black highlights. He also had green eyes and wore a blue and yellow tunic, the usual garb for a squire. (Kinght in training)

"Sir Darek... Why must we kill the last dragon?" the boy asked "I've always admired the power the dragons had."

"they're evil." Sir Darek said." "They eat human souls. The need to be destroyed." Darek took off his metal helmet, revaling short black hair and a long scar going diagonally across his face. The boy knew it was a dragon that gave him that scar.

Sir Darek continued. "If the dragons go unchecked the world could be in danger. This is the last dragon left but he won't go down easily for he is the Dragon Lord of Fire Kanos. Just look." Darek pointed up ahead of the line.

There were hundreds of knights going down the same path as them making the same trek.

"It's going to take all of us to take down this dragon."

"I see Sir Darek." said the boy

He was silent for the next few hours as they mad their way through the forest. Finaly they made it to the clearing. It was a big poen field surrounded by trees.

Impressive thought the boy . Up ahead he could see even more knights. thousands this time. And in front of them all standing upon a pedestal he saw him, the King of England himself King Arthur.

"Squire my sword."Sir Darek said to the boy who pulled off the sword strapped to his back and gave it to the knight.

They walked up to the front of the line and joined King Arthur and the other Kinghts of the Round Table.

When they got there the boy noticed two other people standing next to the King.

One was a white creature with a long face and wore a top hat. It was also holding a cane. It stood about as high as a small child and had big limbs looked as if they came from a rabbit.

That must be him thought the boy. The legendary sword that King Arther welided. Excalibur. The boy knew that the kings powerful weapon could turn into a living being,but he did not know it would look so... wierd.

The other person standing with the king was different. He was cloaked all in black and wore a frightening skull mask. It chilled the boy to his bones.

"Who is that Sir Darek?" asked the boy pointing to the black figure.

"That is Lord Death the Grim Reaper." answerd the knight. "He is going to help us."

The boy was speechless. He had never seen the Grim Reaper in person before.

He listend as Sir Darek walked up to the pedastil and joined the King. "Your Highness." Darek said as he bowed his head.

"Sir Darek, good of you to join us." said King Arthur. The Knight turned to the boy. "This is my squire." he said reaching his hand out to the boy."It is nice to meet you young squire." King Arthur said "Good to meet you to." chimed the bizarre creature that was Excalibur. "Mabe you could join us in a five hour story party sometime." "Cool it Excalibur." said the King.

The boy was ecstatic. The King of England was talking to him. To the boy the king was to magnificent to describe.

But then Lord Death came up to great the boy "Hello there." He said in a dark scary voice. The boy took a step scared.

"You might want to hold off for a bit there Lord Death sir."Sir Darek said. The Grim Reaper walked back up the pedistal. "I really must do something about this children being afraid of me thing." he mumbled to himself.

The boy after recovering his composure asked the king "How exactly are you going to lure the dragon out here?"

"With that" said King Arthur who pointed up to a massive horn being draged by several people. "We will blow that horn witch will sound like a dragon call. When he shows tp to answer the call we will strike."

"It will be a tough fight." the boy said. "We'll do our best." replyed Excaliber.

It took just a few minutes for the horn to be positioned to the middle of the field. After it awas set into place Sir Darek said to the boy. "Squire you should get to a safe distance. We are about to sound the horn. And when the dragon arrives it wont be pretty. "Of course." the boy replied and went off.

He got to a small bunch of bushes and crouched behind it. As he looked apon the battlefield he saw something odd. Some of the people standing next to some of the knights started to change. They morphed tnto various tybes of weapons. Axes, swords, ect. He then saw someone walk up to Lord Death and changed into a big scythe weapon. So there are others like Excaliber that can chance into weapons the boy thought. How odd.

Then someone walked up to the horn and blew into the spout.

The mighty BOOOOOOM that sounded from the horn rose up over the trees. Even the boy had to hold his ears.

It took just a few minutes for the dragon to appear. He flew into the middle of the field and landed right on top of the horn smashing it

This was the Dragon Lord of Fire Kanos. He had blood red scales with spikes going up its back and his head was adorned with long horns.

All the knights who had not drew their weapons yet did so now. The king said to Excaliber "Ready" "As always" replyed the legendary sword changing forms. King Arthur raised the mighty weapon above his head as did Lord Death as they doth yealed "CHARGE!"
