Author's Note: This took me a while to work on, and I hope it's decent. The final trailer is here, and I don't know when the story will officially start. I also set up a poll for the anime or game I should review, in case you didn't know. Now let's get this story started!
In a grand town beneath an even grander castle, people were laughing and cheering into the night. There was a festival going on, and the everyone was enjoying themselves. Well, everyone except for two boys who were at a bench beside a beautiful fountain.
Both were thirteen, but it was hard to tell with the other one because he was wearing grey dragon-like armor, with the helmet making it hard to see the upper part of his face. A blood red spear was sheathed between a pair of black dragon-like wings. The other boy was dressed in a white robe with an angel being depicted in the front. He had somewhat untidy blonde hair that curled up at the bangs, and blues eyes. He had a simple golden staff that was also sheathed between a pair wings, but his were white and feathery.
The blonde boy was trying to convince the armored one to get up. "Come on Ken, don't you want to see the festivities?" Said the blonde boy, who was named Lee. "I can see them just fine." Ken answered in a monotone. Lee sighed. "You know what I mean." He said, then walked back and forth with his hands behind his back. "Don't be so reserved, it's not good for you." He said worriedly. Ken remained quiet, and Lee's head fell. There was silence between them, with the only noise being the happy people around them, and some onlookers who were curious about the boys' outfits. Then the happy noises were silenced by a crash from the south side
Ken quickly got up, drew his spear, then ran towards the direction of the crash. Lee was astounded by the sudden movement and it took him a second to recover. "Wait for me!" He yelled, then followed Ken as people were starting to scream from the south.
When they got there, they found dog-like creatures swinging axes, along with black and gold suits of armor approaching with steel swords. People were rushing past them, screaming in terror. Lee cowered behind Ken. "Th-those are A-anubys and Dark Knights, but those are s-supposed to be sealed away." Lee stammered. "Looks like they've also been brought back, and decided to crash the party." Ken said calmly. The monsters noticed them, and started approaching. "Uh…what are we going to do?" Lee asked worriedly. Ken pointed his spear at the them. "We're going to fight." He simply stated.
Lee jumped back in surprise. "Wait, we can't fight like this!" He said hastily. "We could hurt people, and destroy a lot of property!" "Then what do you suggest we do?" Ken asked. Lee quickly thought of an answer. "We can lead them to the plaza." He said. "There's a lot of room there, and we don't have to worry about people being hurt." Ken noticed he didn't sound sure about the well being of the people, but he nodded anyway. He thrust his palm out and a bolt of lightning hit the Anubis in the lead. It shook a little from the shock, then it recovered and all the monsters looked at them, with the Anubys glaring with red eyes. "Come and get us, we're waiting." Ken said calmly.
The Anubys roared and all the monsters charged. Ken and Lee ran to the direction they came from and making sure the monsters followed them, all while Lee shouted for people to go anywhere else but the plaza. They stopped at the fountain, and turned around to meet the knights and their dogs. Ken counted and got to three Anubys and Dark Knights. "We got to separate the groups and take them out." Ken whispered. "I got the Knights, you can take the Anubys." Lee nodded, and breathed slowly. "Hey, Knights." Ken said. They turned to him, and Ken pointed his spear. "You want to fight a real warrior? Then come get me." Ken said calmly, and he jumped to distance himself from the fountain. He looked at them and his wings spread out, intimidating the Anubys. The Knights just looked at him with their swords drawn. "I'm waiting." Ken said.
All three of the Dark Knights charged at him, feet clanking on the concrete. The leader was the first to reach him. It swung his sword in a wide arc, but Ken jumped up and hovered high in the air. Even the Knights were looking up in surprise as Ken retracted his wings and dived down. He positioned his spear and crashed into the leader's chest,driving it through the armor. Ken jumped back, then watched the Knight keel over, fall apart, then finally fade into dark smoke. The over two were staring him. "Are you mad?" Ken asked. Both Knights took positions in front and behind him. The one in front stabbed him while the other swung downward. Ken sidestepped, took the sword that tried to stab him, then spun around and sliced the front Knight in half. It dropped to ground, then faded away along with the sword.
The last Dark Knight stumbled back, and Ken looked at it. "I'll finish you quickly." He said, then his spear was surrounded by lightning. He stepped up to the Knight and stabbed it in the chest. Sparks flew as its body shook, then exploded in a mixture of electricity and dark smoke. Ken heard fighting behind him, and turned around to find a scared Lee dodging attacks from two Anubys. The monsters, weren't seriously injured, but they did have some pretty good bruises from the staff and one was knocked out cold. Ken ran into the fight and sliced one in the back while Lee launched a ball of fire at the other one in panic. It was set ablaze, and it dropped its axe and ran around until it fell on the last one. Ken finished them off with a bolt of lightning.
Lee walked up and stood beside him as they watched the spot where the monsters were. "…That was actually pretty funny." Ken said. Lee looked and sighed with relief as he saw a slight smile on Ken's face, and could've sworn there was a hint of amusement beneath that monotone. There was a bit of silence, then Lee decided to speak up. "What do we do now?" He asked casually. Ken walked to the west side, and Lee looked after him curiously. Ken glanced back and beckoned him over. "I'm going to get some treats." He said in his monotone. "Are you coming?" Lee smiled happily and nodded. He ran after him as the sounds of the festival resumed and the people cheered for them.
