Vilyane Attack
Over the next few days, Bit practiced with his sword. He often teamed up with Leena's older brother for training exercises. Leon had gray eyes and brown hair, and wore blue breeches and a white tunic. His armor was of steel, and had shoulder guards, as well as boots and gauntlets. As a weapon, Leon wielded a spear. On the spear blade, shoulder guards, and at the center of the breastplate, was a golden triangle-the symbol of Jatiran.
Leon and Bit were just finishing a training exercise one day when Harry came over. He called, "Bit Cloud, I challenge you to a sword duel. Winner takes Leena."
"Whatever Harry," groaned Bit. This happened almost every day, and the results were always the same. Harry would act to hasty, and would find himself on the floor with his sword out of his hands, and Bit walking inside for a cool drink. Today was no exception. In less than five seconds, Harry had already lost the match.
"I'll get you one day Bit," screamed Harry, "Just you wait."

Between Leon's training and Harry's duels, Bit was getting much stronger by the day. Leena too was improving-she was taking classes in sorcery, and took to it like a duck to water. Together, they would go into the woods just outside of town and fight off monsters in order to protect the town. Every time they did that, neither of them came back with as much as a scratch on them.
One day, they met a young woman in the forest. She seemed like some sort of traveler, thought Bit didn't know where she came from. Her eyes was a pinkish/purple shade, and her red hair fell just beyond her shoulders- where it was spiked in a circular fashion. She had on a black skirt, and a red tunic that was cut at the arms, collar, and bottom in order to appear like it was spiked. The gauntlets and boots were red as well, with a spiked appearance on the end. In her hair was a green gem, and around her head was a black band. The sword she carried was a red Katana. But the strangest thing was the fact that her ears were pointed.
"My name is Naomi Flugel of the Senserian race," she announced, "I have come with an urgent message for the king of Jatiran."
"What's a Senserian?" inquired Bit.
Naomi replied, "We're like Elves, but our lifespan is like that of humans. You could say that we're half-elves. Hey kid, would you like me to get that collar off of you?"
"Why?" asked Bit.
"It's a symbol of slavery," said Naomi, "If I were you, I wouldn't want to be stuck with such a thing on my body. Luckily, I have some tools in my pack."
Bit consented, and within minutes it was off. Then, Naomi began to walk with them to the town. "We Senserians are able to feel things that humans cannot. Our senses are also sharper-like that of our Elfin cousins. Thus the name, Senserian. You see, we've recently sensed that there will be a major invasion from Vilyane in the near future. So I was sent to warn your king of the imminent danger. I do hope that we can make it in time," she confessed.
But when they came out of the forest, they saw Naomi's fears had come to light. The city was burning and the Vilyane army was ransacking it. Bodies of soldiers were everywhere, and Bit nearly lost his breakfast looking at them. But that wasn't the worst part. Above the castle-where the Jatiran flag was hung-flew the flag of Vilyane.
"Leon, dad," cried Leena. Bit took off his armor, and let her cry in his tunic. "Thanks Bit, I don't know what I'd ever do without you."
Suddenly, they heard a voice telling them to halt. Up ran a group of guards, ready for battle. "You have three seconds to surrender and submit to us or else it will get rough."
"Then let it," said Bit, "I'd rather go out fighting to protect my friends than see them in chains. I warn you, I'm no pushover."
"Then die boy," yelled the guard captain. He and his companions began to get into formation and charge the trio. Bit and Naomi began to fight back with their swords, while Leena cast spells on the enemies, and causing mass destruction.
Soon all of the guards were dead. Bit, Leena, and Naomi ran for the forest in order to hide. Just as they predicted, the patrol that came by soon afterwards passed right over them, and never even noticed they were there.
Bit breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's go, I'm sure there are more survivors who thought as we did."
His words were rewarded. Soon afterwards, the trio came across a camp that had recently been constructed. The armor of a Jatiran soldier lay on the ground nearby. And sitting in front of the fire cooking dinner was Leon.
"Leon," called Leena. She ran over to him and gave her brother a big hug. "I worried that you'd been killed. Were you hurt?"
"Slow down Leena. Well, I managed to escape after the city fell, and came here to look for you. We have to do something, I don't think the king of Vilyane wants to have afternoon tea with the people he captured," said Leon.
Naomi spoke up, "How about my village? I'm sure the Senserians will be able to help free Jatiran City from Vilyane's control."
Bit looked at the others. "I'm with Naomi. We have to do everything we can. After gaining the help of some others, maybe we can win our home back." Leon and Leena looked back at him, and agreed. So the next day, they were on the road to the village of the Senserians.

Oooh, an invasion. Here's where the adventure starts. Don't worry, Brad and Jamie are coming in soon-along with my Ocs.
