So ladies and, possibly, gentlemen, I bring you the last instalment of the first instalment of Kyle's weird-ass adventures.
Chapter 10-Honour
The Black Fang formed into...formation, as Ephidel looked on. Foolish humans, he thought. They try to fight against our might, our strength...and yet the strange thing is, they keep winning! BAH!!! I shall put a stop to this, by sending a slightly cowardly General to stop him, while having thieves steal all the treasure! Oh yes, I'm a tactical genius! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
If it makes anyone feel better, he's dead soon.
So, anyway, Ephidel was thinking evil thoughts about evil deeds, when he was interrupted by a clanking of armour. Laus has arrived... "My lord Laus, I command you to be brave for the sake of your soon-to-be conquest of the world! I want you to fight the attackers! DO IT IN THE NAME OF LORD NERGAL!!!"
Laus, getting slightly caught up in the whole thing, screamed "PRAISE THE LORD-AH!!!"
"HE'LL GIVE US BOUNTIOUS AMOUNTS OF POWER AND MONEY!!!"
"PRAISE THE LORD-AH!!!"
"HE'LL GIVE US LARGE AMOUNTS OF NON-FLAT CHESTED WOMEN!!!"
"PRAISE THE LORD-AH!!!"
"That counts me out," Limstella said with a sense of relief (even though s/he's androgynous), before watching the mini-sermon which was going on. Even Lord Nergal and Lord Elbert had stepped outside to see what was going on.
"HE'LL GIVE US...err...ELECTRICITY!!!"
"PRAISE THE LORD-AH!!!"
"When you're quite finished..." a cold voice from behind them sneered. The two whirred round to see the entire Black Fang staring at them, and Lord Nergal with a slightly bemused face looking at them. "Marquess Laus, you shall stop Eliwood and his cadre from getting to the Dragon's Gate. Eliwood, Limstella, attend me." And with that, he swept into the shrine, Ephidel and Limstella following.
"The lord be praised-ah..." Laus muttered under his breath, before taking up the stance, and forgetting the first law of warfare. When you are the leader of a vast force facing a group of about 10 inexperienced teenagers, you'll always lose. He also forgot the moral that he'd been living by his entire life: Brave people may be remembered, but they're usually too dead to notice.

Kyle stared. "Where's all the Black Fang gone?"
Rebecca appeared beside him. "Dunno...they were here a second ago..."
"There is dark work afoot here!" Kyle said dramatically, before noticing that the Black Fang had reappeared again. One of them ran forward.
He yelled "Oh man, sorry we're late, it's just that...that Laus and Ephidel were making asses out of themselves and...oh Elimine, it was hilarious, you had to se-URK!" he finished his sentence with a squeak as Rebecca peppered him with arrows.
"What? I got bored," she said with a grin.
"Damn, you're bloodthirsty," Kyle replied.
At this point, Canas appeared out of nowhere. "Well ladies and gentlemen, shall we move on?"
So they did.
- - -
Two Shamans stood at the door to the throne room. They were very old.
"Hey, is th-that...the Sword Demon!"
"Hell, it is!"
"He's leading that young girl to her doom, I bet ya!"
"I think you're right!"
"Let's run!"
So the two old men ran from the Dragon's Gate.
Laus stared. "Ah need a miracle, lord..."
- - -
Kyle seemed to be doing very well. His sword arm had improved greatly, and he seemed to fight stronger with Rebecca around, yadda yadda yadda, getting feelings for her, yadda yadda yadda, may be falling in love, yadda yadda yadda. What? I don't feel confident enough to write romance, so until then, you have to stick with that piece of crap as a description.
But at that particular point, Kyle's bad luck kicked in, and a mad man appeared behind him, stabbing him in the stomach.
"Ooh...that's not supposed to be protruding like that..." he said before collapsing.
- - -
Kyle woke up some hours later. "Wh-where am I?"
"Still the Dread Isle," a familiar voice said. His eyes focused on the face of Rebecca, staring down with worry. "You've been unconscious for the last twelve hours."
"Wh-where's everyone...else?"
"Weeeeell...everyone else thought we were dead, so they left us here. Canas stayed though. He managed to concoct a potion to quench the bleeding and make you better!"
Kyle turned his head to see Canas smiling. "Well, shall we go? I've always wanted to explore the Dread Isle, as there's nothing about it in my books, see?"
Kyle nodded. "Help me up, would you please?" Rebecca and Canas nodded, taking an arm each and lifting him up. Kyle grimaced as a fresh wave of pain racked him. "Oh, come on, let's go...I'm bored now," Kyle said.
And so the group of three trudged off.

"Hey, where's Canas?" Karla asked.
- - -
So, that endeths the story Only Human. Stay tuned for the second instalment, "Simply Normal" in which more crap happens that you pretend to find funny. For example:
Gasp, as the group of three find awesome stuff at the Dread Isle!
Laugh, as Kyle has more hilarious Daydreams!
Cringe as Karla chops some more heads off!
And Spasm as TEO releases chapter after chapter of DURGE!!!
BTW, a final note. The reason I did this was to see if I could do a Gary Stu fic that didn't include the perfect being as the subject. I figured I should have had someone who had faults. Who was, as the title says, Only Human. Plus, I wanted his antics to be absolutely hilarious.
I hope I accomplished that.
