When the pair arrived at Orchird Farm, the two of them looked at the plain yet broad farm, there were crops, a barn, a house, and a trail that led to a deeper part of the farm. As they were walking around the farm the two of them were met by a plump farmer who had a piece of grass in his mouth. His clothes consisted of a blue coat and hat with dark green pants and brown boots.
"Hello you must be the two heroes the Guild said they'd be sending me, my name is Isiah, I arranged for more security to assist you. You'll be protecting those crates in the barn, they must be valuable I heard Lady Grey wants them herself, anyway a trader is supposed to be picking them up later all I need you to do is protect them. I would say good luck, but you're heroes, you don't need it!" With that Isiah ran back into his house.
"Think I should tell him I'm not a hero?" Rose asked looking the way Isiah ran. She was unsurprisingly answered with silence. Sabre made his way inside his barn, sat down onto the ground and seemed to wait for the trader. Rose not one for being bored decided she'd take a nap and hope her silent friend would have the decency to wake her up. She sat with her back against a nearby tree with a bow and arrow in her lap, in case she needed to defend herself quickly.
Hours had passed with nothing new except guards arriving and started patrolling the area. All was peaceful, until a shadow snuck past the guards and made its way towards the barn. When it arrived, the shadow scouted the barn looking for any signs of life inside. There seemed to be no one inside, so the shadow found its target: the crates. The shadow then snuck back outside and scouted the farm making notes of the guards with their patrol routes and one sleeping girl. Satisfied with the info the shadow gathered, it scurried off to the edge of the farm where a group of twelve bandits were waiting. Stepping out into the moonlight, the shadow was none other than Whisper.
"Ok there are 3 guards and one sleeping girl who's one of the best with a bow. We can sneak past them and stay quiet but the hero is missing I couldn't find him anywhere." One bandit who seemed to appoint himself as leader of the group ignorantly said. "So what's the problem with one missing hero, we can be in and gone before they notice. Besides we can just sneak in and kill all of them, take the crates and if the hero is stupid enough to fight thirteen enemies then we'll just kill him." Whisper shook her head at the bandit's idiocy she would let him walk in and get killed by the Farmboy but her quest was on the line.
"Look trust me when I say this, the hero they hired is really good, he killed a wasp queen on his own and is one of the best guild trainees ever. Plus when it comes to bandits…. He'll massacre you lot, so just follow my lead so you can get paid and live through this." The bandit leader however was having none of it. "Aw sod it, ATTACK!" and with that the group of twelve bandits rushed towards the farm leaving Whisper by herself.
The bandits had ran halfway down the hill that came from another entrance to the farm when a flash of blue light streaked past them from a tree to another, decapitating two bandits. The group halted in their advance and looked at the tree the blue light hid behind, three bandits surrounded and started closing in on the tree with their weapons drawn. However, before they had the chance to attack the blue light attacked once again, this time the bandits could make out a figure swinging a katana lopping of heads when it appeared behind them. By the time the first body fell all the three bandit heads' were rolling on the floor with no change in their expression. The figure let his arm drop that held the stained katana and turned around to face bandits with his cold blue glare.
"Who the 'ell are you!?" One bandit shouted in broken English. He received no verbal answer only the silent hero raising his sword, he moved the blade in a "come on" motion. With that, the seven bandits attacked, most would think the hero would be out of his league however he was cooler than ice. Becoming a blue flash he slipped behind one bandit and stabbed him through his back, the next moment he wrenched the blade out and swung it in an arc that cut the jugular of another bandit. With the two bodies falling to the ground he blocked a strike from one bandit with his sword and listened to the two bandits behind him charging him. Sabre kicked the bandit in front of him in the stomach making him loosen his grip enough to where Sabre could take it with his left hand. Then he promptly became a blue light again and appeared behind the two bandits charging him from behind and let them slash into their comrade by accident. Readying his two blades in stabbing fashion he thrust the cold steel into the two bandits' bodies, he let go of his borrowed bandit blade and pulled his out the falling corpse.
That left two bandits left, including the leader, he seemed to be sweating in fear of the silent hero. He contemplated calling for Whisper but it was drown out by the call of the guards. "Hero we're coming to assist you!" Seeing three guards running up the hill the bandit leader was about to turn tail and run, before an arrow appeared through his neck, gurgling for a moment the leader looked at the bottom of the hill to see a red haired girl with her bow in hand. As the leader's body fell the guard's quickly cut down the last bandit, spraying blood on the autumn colored ground. With the bandits all dead the guards shouted in victory before returning to the barn to wait for the trader who was going to pick up the crates.
Rose walked up to Sabre and watched him clean his sword out with one of the dead bandit's shirt. After he finished wiping the blood off he stood up and got into a ready stance staring deeper into the forest that surrounded the hill path. Rose was about to ask what's wrong until she saw Whisper jump down in front of the pair with a large bolo staff the size of her body. "Hello Farmboy I see you defeated those bandits pretty easily, if I were to guess I say you used Assassin Rush on them right? I haven't started learning that spell but it seems useful. The way you took out twelve bandits was very impressive, well they were amatuers but lets see how you fair against the real deal." With that Whisper got into a fighting stance and the two of them squared off with their eyes locked.
Rose stood by watching to see who would attack first, Whisper broke her staring contest with Sabre to give her a quick smile then she pushed off her feet and started attacking Sabre. The two heroes didn't let up on each other as they rained blows on one another, every time Sabre charged Whisper would sidestep and attack with a overhead blow that Sabre would roll and respond with an attack of his own. Finally Sabre charged towards Whisper and went for a grab at her staff, she responded by jumping back to avoid him but she was surprised when he swept her legs from under her and held his blade at her throat signaling he won.
"Damn you beat me again I suppose this quest is yours but I'll fight you again, see you later Farmboy." Whisper picked up her staff and her body faded away in a blue light. After that Sabre put his katana away and looked towards the barn and saw a trader make off with the crates. Succeeding in his quest Sabre started towards the Guild listening to Rose sing a little about winning her boasts'
