A/N: We had to do a story thing for language arts where one person writes part of the story and then someone else writes part and then someone else writes more…etc…etc. So you can thank Walter and Robby and Nicole for killing the story..and I apologize for it being short…but we only had about 15 minutes or so to write the whole thing.

Albel and Fayt had very different personalities, yet they managed to stay friends. Albel was a vicious killer who killed at the slightest provocation, even the fact that someone dared to look at him; but Fayt was a gentle soul who hated violence. Whenever the two of them went into town for supplies, Fayt had to constantly rush after Albel to keep him from decapitating helpless merchants. Albel had a long sword named the Crimson Scourge that was the fear of the townspeople. The sharp blade had an intricately carved handle with crimson stones set into it.
All the townspeople ran indoors at the mere sound of Albel's name. The streets were usually emptied whenever he and Fayt came into town, except for the greediest merchants who were determined to risk their lives for a sale. The whole economy had to shut down. Businesses were closed because the workers left, fearing imminent death. The people were tired of this life full of fear so they finally came up with a plan to rid the town of Albel and his friend Fayt.
One night, Albel went on a rampage, killing everyone in sight with his mighty sword. In the middle of this killing spree, a gang of mercenaries arrived. Out of desperation, the town had hired them to take care of the problem. Unfortunately for Albel, he had never been introduced to a gun. His mighty sword was no match for bullets, and the violent swordsman was shot again and again until he hit the ground.
Albel was dead and the town rejoiced. The mercenaries were praised as heroes. They went on to build an empire centered within the city, conquering all who opposed them. Fayt was then captured by the ungrateful townspeople, who had already forgotten how often he had saved them from Albel's rage. Fayt was taken into the mercenaries' fortress, never to be seen again. The rumor in the town is that he was made into taco meat to serve the villagers, but no one really knows.
