Chapter 4

Gregor ran out of the armory and towards the battlefield. With no bat he decided to go on the ground and fight beside Ripred and some other rats. He felt his raga sensation starting to boil in his veins and ran toward the wall. He spotted Ripred alone in the middle of a spin attack and killing off many Cutters in one swoop. Gregor decided to go and stick near him. Now he was raging fully and slicing up any Cutter within an arms length, but there were a great number. He fought through thirty and then another thirty would take their place. Thats when an unexpected visitor dropped next to him.

"Need help?" said Luxa sarcastically.

"This is no time for joking pups, this is a battle not a luncheon!" screamed Ripred through the fighting. Then something went wrong. One minute he was fighting side by side with Luxa and a wave of Cutters came in and it was too much for them. One got in and scratched Gregor on the arm before it was met by his sword. Two of the creatures got through Luxa's defenses and were starting to get back-up so Gregor started to lose it. He easily cut one in half and managed to kill the other one before it could do fatal damage to Luxa. She was still badly wounded and needed medical attention. He knelt beside her and screamed for a medic while Ripred covered them.

"Greetings, I am a doctor. Let go Overlander! I will take care of her now. Get back to the battlefield!" said a woman barely audible through the sound of battle.

"Fine, take good care of her!" said Gregor.

"Can't fight like this all day, boy!" screamed Ripred through snarled teeth.

He went back into the fray and fought until the cry rang out for the Cutters to retreat. As the remaining Cutters fled, the humans threw torches at them to give them a little "goodbye" present. The torches killed about 10 of the giant ants. When he took a step back what he saw around him was mayhem. There were thousands of Cutter bodies torn apart and sliced open all over the ground. Unfortunately there were about 100 human bodies. Just laying there, having fought their last battle. Their families will grieve and the city will miss them, but at least they died of a good cause. They defended the city they loved. Regalia.

Gregor went straight to the hospital, not only for his own wounds but for Luxa. When he got there a doctor jumped on him as soon as he got in the door. He was immediately sent to a room and was given pain killers. Before he could ask they poured them down his throat. He was asleep in 3 minutes.

He woke to the sound of Ripred's voice next to his bed.

"You were out for a pretty long time!" Ripred said chuckling. Gregor looked at his watch. He slept for 14 hours!

"I need to see Luxa!" he blurted out, then realized who he was talking to. Unlike his usual self, Ripred was compassionate and understanding.

"I know that, but she was badly injured and is sleeping from her painkiller, you must go to the prophecy room with me. You may eat and bathe, but I need you in that room in 30 minutes." said Ripred sternly.

A nurse came in gave him a tray of wonderful food compared to most Overland hospitals. He went to the bathroom and did his usual bathing routine and got dressed in Underland attire and headed toward the prophecy room. On the walls there are prophecies of all natures carved a long, long time ago by Bartholomew of Sandwich when he locked himself in and saw the future. They were nicely carved on the stone walls and each told a new story of something that is destined to happen.

"The prophecy we just uncovered is over here." said Ripred softly.

He went over and swung open where the Prophecy of Gray was and it revealed another small room. With one prophecy carved in it, but it was carved 14 times. It was called The Prophecy of the Fallen Empire.


Next chapter will have the prophecy, it might take a while to update. Don't forget to review! The button is right there!
