sorry for not updating in awhile but I had the hardest time figuring out what Thomas saw. But hopefully this story will make amends for the inactivity
Thomas and Rex walked across the courtyard towards where Thomas saw the movement. Tonight would be great best night for an attack because all the Narnian nobles and royalty were present.
"Can you smell anything?" Thomas asked.
"The wind is not in our favor." Rex responded in a gruff voice.
Thomas nodded and drew The Sword of Healing and made his way to the trees where he saw the movement. His feet stepped softly and quietly towards them. All senses alert.
"The wind has changed." Rex said. "Hags, Ogres and Minoboars lurk in the shadows."
"Summon the guards." Thomas ordered. And with that he charged into the trees right into the midst of the intruders.
"Foolish boy." Rex said as he darted off.
Thomas was slashing at everything in sight. He rolled and stabbed an Ogre in the leg. He kicked a hag and stabbed a Minoboar threw the heart. He was pushed back against a tree and his sword was knocked out of his hand. But he managed to kill at least fifteen invaders and wound four.
"Very bad move boy." A hag said in a raspy voice. The hag was about to say something but was interrupted by the sound of hooves pounding on the cobblestone ground and other sounds of the guards.
"Think again." Thomas said as he kicked the hag and grabbed his sword. The group of intruders charged the guards and the sound of battle field the air. Many nobility could be seen on the balcony. Thomas decapitated an ogre and threw a fallen spear at an oncoming hag. He swung at a ogre who tried to block the blow with his shield but the Sword of Healing cut through it like warm butter. Though he's wielded it for a couple of months Thomas still hasn't discovered the full extent of the swords powers. Thomas was about to kill a Minoboar but an arrow got to it first. Thomas turned and saw Lucy with a bow in hand and a sword at her side. Still in her party attire.
"I can't let you have all the fun." Lucy said as she stood next to Thomas and shot two more enemies.
"I was wondering when you'd show up." He replied as he stabbed through two enemies. The two continued to kill the intruders till the last ones surrendered and were thrown in prison. Blood coverage his sword but as soon as Thomas willed it too the blade heated up and turned the blood into steam.
"You know Susans going to be mad after she finds out what you did." Thomas said as he leaned against a tree.
"What do you mean?" Lucy asked sarcastically.
"Well not many people go to battle in pretty dresses. In case you didn't notice but your dress is covered in blood."
"Ah Peter will stick up for me." The two walked off back to the ballroom still in their bloody clothes just in time for the banquet. Everyone stared at the two as they came in, because it's not every day you see a queen come in after a battle to defend the castle. After a prayer was said Thomas started to eat. Most of the nobles who would faint at the sight of blood for some reason lost their appetite.
Review or else you won't find our what happens next. Trust me when I say I keep to my word
