Chapter 11

"Renet, No!"

Leonardo stabbed his two swords into the ground and fell to his knees and looked up at the sky as the harpees flew away with Renet. Lancelot and Arthur walked up to Leonardo and Lancelot put his hand on Leonardo's shoulder.

"Don't worry my friend, we will get her back" Lancelot said.

Leonardo stood up and pulled his swords from the ground and then turned to his friends, "I am going after her".

"Then count us in, we are not letting you go by yourself" Alexander said as he stepped forward.

"I can't ask any of you to risk your lives for us. Savanti wants me and he is going to use Renet as bait to lure me there. You know as well as I do that there will be a trap waiting for us" Leonardo told them.

"I know that, you and Renet are our friends and we will not let you go alone" Arthur said. Then Arthur turned to Lancelot and said, " Lancelot, gather our knights, we will bring the fight to Savanti instead of waiting here for him".

"Yes your majesty" Lancelot said and walked past Leonardo. As he past him, Lancelot stopped and placed a hand on Leo's shoulder and Leonardo turned and looked at him.

"Don't worry we will get her back" Then Lancelot smirked, "besides I owe you a rescue from helping me and my knight a few day ago".

"Thanks, this means a lot" Leonardo said, smiling. Lancelot smiled back and turned and walked off.

"Alexander, gather the men, we are going hunting" Lancelot said.

"You got it" Alexander smiled and turned and walked off to gather the knights.

Mordrid Castle

The harpee, carrying Renet, dropped her in the middle of a room that was full of walking dead knights. Renet looked around and in front of her was a thrown that was covered by a shadow. On it, sat Savanti. Savanti smiled and then got up and walked towards Renet. When he got to her, he reached down and grabbed her by her throat and picked her up so that they were face to face.

"So Renet, How do you like your new temporary home?" Savanti asked as he smiled wickedly.

"It suits you, everything is ugly and smelly, just like you" Renet snorted.

"Ahh, such humor, to bad you will not have much to joke about soon" Savanti said.

"What are you gonna do, kill me. If so, go ahead and get it over with " Renet said. Savanti just smiled and released her and she dropped to the ground.

"O no, not yet my dear. You see, I have plans for you. I have do doubt that Leonardo will come for you and I am sure that he will not come alone. That is why I am arranging for a little welcoming present for him and the others." Savanti said as he walked back to his thrown and sat down.

"What do you mean?" Renet asked as she got back to her feet.

"Well I will have a much larger army than before by the time he gets here. There is no way that he and those knight will be able to survive when they will be totally outnumbered." Savanti said.

"No, Leonardo will stop you" Renet said defiantly.

"I do not think so. Take her to a cell so that she might be comfortable. I don't want you to miss this. You will get to watch the turtle die first. Then you will follow him" Savanti laughed as two of his guards grabbed Renet and took her out of the thrown room.

Back at Camelot

"All the men are ready" Alexander said as he walked up to where Lancelot, Arthur, and Leonardo were standing.

"Very good. Now let us go and stop Savanti once and for all" Arthur said.

"Are you sure you want to do this. I know savant, he has had an army of the dead before, there is no doubt that we will be very outnumbered" Leonardo told them.

"Do not worry my friend, we have a few surprises of our own" Lancelot said.

"Like what?" Leonardo asked.

"Well for one, from what my scouts told me, Savanti's army will be walking here, that means they have no horses, so we will be able to move quickly and have a very big advantage. Second, we already have catapults being moved into position and that will provide us with more power." Lancelot said

"how did you get catapults?" Leonardo asked.

"Lets just say we had them hid next to Mordrid Castle for quit sometime. We used them to defeat Mordrid and left them there about 500 yards from the castle, hidden in the woods" Lancelot answered.

"Ok, well, are you guys ready?" Leonardo asked

"Yes, now lets go save the damsel in distress" Lancelot smiled. Leonardo could not help but to laugh at Lancelot humor in the current situation.

Leonardo, Lancelot, and Arthur got on their horses in front of Arthur's Army and waved goodbye to everyone and rode off to Mordrid Castle.
