But, anyways...I don't know what I was on when I wrote this. It kinda switches back to classic fairy tale mode, with a slight pinch of insanity...the next chapter I think will once again be written ina normal sense....hopefully....
Not How It's Supposed To Go.
Part 2
There once was a young squire in the kingdom of Romefeller. Well... It wasn't really a kingdom so much as a village, and a badly run one at that. Anyways... There was a squire who was training to be a knight, and his name was Duo.
Duo was a very smart, brave and courageous young boy. Although he wasn't very strong he was extremely quick and agile. Unfortunatly, his weapon of choice, the scythe, had not yet been legalized by the royal court, ah, tachnicalities.
To become a knight, one must pass verious tests, as well as preform good deeds and complete difficult quests.
Unfortunatly, Duo had very few friends. When quests arose, he was always the last to hear about them, and so they were completed before he was even ready to leave.
He did complete many good deeds, such as giving donations, helping old folks cross the street, and taking care of sick animals. One would think they would make up for the lack of quests. Alas, this was not the case, due to a crappy government system.
One would think that because of his many good deeds, he would have many friends, but kids can be so very cruel.
Duo was an orphan. Not the child of some rich duke who had send his kid away for the very best training, oh no. Duo worked in verious stores around the village to pay for his education.
He was also younger and smaller than most of the other boys.
The other boys often tormented Duo, and so he stuck to himself.
One would think, that these anti-good deeds would cause the boys to be punished. One thinks quite a bit, don't you.
In any case it was a quiet, cloudy day, when Duo was tending the towns pigeons. He had just finished putting a splint on one of the pigeons broken wing, when he noticed another pigeon, which had a message tied to its leg.
Duo quickly took the message and read it out loud to himself.
"Help me, I'm trapped in the castle on the mountain.
~Heero."
Duo blinked.
"This is my chance!" He proclaimed loudly, the stopped and looked around nervously to make sure no one had heard. For if they did, surely they would beat him to it, and another quest would have slipped past him.
Before he lost the chance, Duo quickly fed the pigeons, before running back to the orphanage to gather his things, where he was roped in to reading the younger children a bed time story.
It was actualy quite late before Duo left on his quest to rescue the fair princess Heero.
