It is 12:15 AM right here, and I the reason why I am updating this late is because I went away. So, I did ask my sister to update for me, she didn't have the time to so when I got home, I quickly turned on the laptop and updated. Don't have much time, read on.
After hours of fighting, it finally came to an end for the day when night approaches and the ceasefire started again.
"So, your majesty," Zulkifeli said as King Julien sat on a chair. "The war is clearly on our side now, and all we have to do tomorrow is fight our way through to get Maxene. But from the looks of it, Maxene is not going to surrender."
"By the way, what makes Maxene roll the log early?" King Julien asked.
"That's what I was going to," Zulkifeli said. "It seems as if they are spying on us, but how?"
"Pok poks, your majesty?" asked Ghalati, offering a plate of pok poks.
"No thanks," King Julien rejected as Ghalati went away, offering the pok poks to other people. "Where's Clover and Maurice, by the way?" King Julien asked, looking for his two friends.
"Both got hurt," Zulkifeli said. "Maurice's injury wasn't that serious though, a scratch on his arm. But Doctor S says that it will be better if the scratch is treated. Clover was shot by a cannon and her leg is kind of twisted according to Nurse Phantom. And he got punched in the face after offering Clover too much stuff. He came to me, complaining about the bruises."
"And nobody told me that my friends are at the hospital," King Julien said.
"Well I was getting to that point," Zulkifeli said as the both of them rose up from the chair.
"Let's go then," King Julien said as they went off to the field hospital.
"General Zulkifeli," Maurice called as Zulkifeli went out of his tent. "The ceasefire is about to end."
"Okay, just give me a moment to arm myself with these weapons here," Zulkifeli said as he wore his armour and took his pike. "I shall be fighting at the front line, it's the most important part today since we're sieging the crocodile kingdom. Tell Frederik to wait for a moment, my foot is stuck in this hole." Zulkifeli said as he tried to release his foot from a hole on a small bridge he was walking on.
Zulkifeli came to the border of the two kingdoms and sat on a chair next to a table which sits directly on the border. On the other side sat Frederik as he smiled and shaked hands with Zulkifeli like the day before.
"Right, it's close to nine o'clock," Frederik started as he read some papers that Maxene gave to him. "So should we end the ceasefire now, or should we wait for nine o'clock? Or is there any postpones?"
"Well, we are all ready, so we could begin now," Zulkifeli said as the both of them sat up.
"Alright then, I'll announce the end of the ceasefire soon," Frederik said. "Wiedmann, get me the horn." he said as he went away with his assistant.
Zulkifeli too went away with Maurice and returned to the camp.
"Ceasefire shall end at any moment," Zulkifeli said to King Julien and Clover. "Our army is ready at the battlefield, so we should be invading the crocodile kingdom soon once we attack them."
"Alright," King Julien said. "Clover, get me the armours," King Julien said as he just remembered that he forgot to take them from the arsenal after having breakfast.
"On it!" Clover said with a salute as she disappeared from sight, heading towards the arsenal.
"About that," Zulkifeli started. "Doctor S told me to tell you that you can go to the war today. Mainly due to the fact that it will probably be a short and easy one, but also because your wound isn't that bad. Just a little stab on the arm, that's all."
"King Julien," Clover said as she landed on the ground with a sack. "Here are your armour, and I changed the helmet yesterday since it has a large crack. And also I changed your sword to a metal one, it's better and stronger, like the ones that the pirates used."
"Good," King Julien said as he took his new helmet which actually still looks the same as the one he used before. Before he could say anything else, the sound of horn can be heard coming from the crocodile kingdom.
"The ceasefire has ended," Zulkifeli said. "I'll need to go now," he said, running towards the battlefield, keeping his sword in his belt as he sped up.
"Come on, Clover," King Julien said as he looked around. "Where's Maurice though?"
"He was here," Clover said. "He came with Zulkifeli after the ceasefire meeting. "Oh well, must be at the battlefield already."
The two of them ran towards the battle as the two teams clashed against each other, both trying to win the battle.
"How can this be!" the crocodile ambassador said. "We cannot lose this battle, I'll lose my whole kingdom if we do!"
"I'm sorry, but they're too strong." Maxene said. "We have to find another way to win this. A new strategy to defeat them. Or else we must start over like how they did after we defeated them before."
"Maxene," Wiedmann said as he opened the door of the hut. "Frederik called for you."
Maxene walked out of the hut, leaving the crocodile ambassador trying to drink tea before spilling it due to his tiny arms.
"What is it?" Maxene asked as she went to Frederik who was sitting on a chair watching the battle.
"Ghalati just told us that King Julien is targeting you, and not the crocodile kingdom," Frederik said as he stood up. "Which means that once they get into the crocodile kingdom, they'll take you and end this war. So I think you'd better run away. We've taken the S.S. Butterfly and she is ready to head north so that we can start again and defeat King Julien."
"Forget about running away," Maxene said. "I'm not going down without a fight. Let them breach the walls of the crocodile kingdom, they shall be the ones who will run away. Call some help from the Reunion Island. We need more troops to stop them."
Thanks for reading and I should be updating tomorrow. CYa!
