Time flew by, and before Arthur noticed it was dark which only meant, it was time for the attack. Arthur was relieved to know that his 4 knights were in his group of fighters. Sir Faulow gathered all the knights for final words: "This is it. This is our only chance to end this war. If we stop this delegation from reaching the army of Polnard, we will have a better chance in defeating them soon. Now, the fight begins." And with those words Sir Faulow turned around and went to take his position, followed by 9 knights.

"Very well, you heard Sir Faulow and you know the plan. We have to go and take our position from behind the enemies' camp. Stay low and quiet." Arthur instructed the remaining 9 knights.

Arthur's group walked quietly in the woods. They had to get to their spot without being detected by the guards. They were almost caught by one of the guards when Sir Owen sneezed, but eventually they got to their destination.

That was when they heard screams from the other side of the camp, which indicated the beginning of the attack. Arthur and his group waited 10 seconds and then attacked Polnard's delegation's members from behind. At first it seemed as if Sir Faulow's plan was working, but then it all went horribly wrong. Arthur's group was able to kill many of the enemies by using the surprise advantage, however, Sir Faulow's knights weren't as lucky. Apparently, the delegation's guards were more than prepared for any possible attack and so they easily fought and killed many of the knights, as the knights were outnumbered.

We need another plan. Arthur thought. There are too many of them. If I don't come up with another plan, we will all die.

"Keep fighting. Do not retreat. We will fight them even with our last breath." Sir Faulow ordered.

No. There must be another way. I am not willing to die here, I promised Guinevere I would return and that is what I intend to do.

"I have another plan." Arthur told his knights. "We need to get back to the woods. They must follow us there. It is our only chance."

"But Sir, what about Sir Faulow's orders?" Sir Owen asked.

"There is no other choice. Are you really willing to die here? Do you not wish to return to Camelot?" Arthur asked his knight.

"I do Sir, but we can not disobey direct orders."

"The choice is quite simple Owen, either we follow Sir Faulow's orders and die fighting, or we do what ever we can to stay alive. So what do you say?"

"I say we try to stay alive. What ever the cost may be, it can not be worse than death." Sir Lio said.

"The punishment for disobeying direct order is death." Sir Owen reasoned.

"Like I said, not worse than death. And does it really matter where we die or how? We can at least try to finish our mission, which is if you forgot, is to stop this delegation." Sir Lio answered.

"Do not worry Owen, if we happen to survive this, I will take full responsibility for disobeying the orders. I will even say that I forced you at sword point to follow me instead of Sir Faulow. There will be no punishment for any of you." Arthur promised his knights.

"All right then, to the woods." Sir Owen agreed and the rest of the knights nodded and followed Arthur to the woods.

It is our only hope. It must work.


Hi guys, sorry for the delay, but I find it really hard to write and describe the whole fighting thing. Though to be honest, there really isn't much fighting here. As a matter of fact I have no idea how they had the time to have that conversation in the middle of a war zone.

Oh well, I did my best. Hope you liked it.
