Chapter Three
When Anubi finished putting on the armor, he turned around to go, and saw Ganon standing in the doorway.
"Do you like my present?" he asked.
Anubi was needless to say, speechless.
"With great respect comes responsibility."
With that, Ganondorf left Anubi to think about his duties now, which were mainly centered around helping minor units or arranging units for missions.
Time passed, and Anubi was still struggling with his responsibilities as a high-ranker.
His rank may have gone up, but his swordsmanship had stayed basically the same.
He still had a lot of training left, but it was kind of hard to practice with his regular class, as he often intimidated the Golds and Silvers there.
It was comical, though for the younger units to see such a nobility struggling with a spin attack.
It soon became legend around the lower ranks' dormitories, and many more Darknuts came to sword practice to see this klutz, so eventually he stopped coming, and the General offered to give him lessons in exchange for helping him with one of his chores.
Anubi readily took this offer up, but when the time came to repay the generous general, he regretted it.
It was the longest and hardest he'd ever worked.
Meanwhile, the Table council was discussing Anubi's incompetence.
"He's a hard worker, with a good heart, but he just can't handle all the responsibilities of a Black." said one of the members.
"I say we demote him to Red Caped and get on with our lives." said an elder member grumpily.
However, the whole council was in favor of it.
"No. If we did, he'd never stop being teased about his 'reign of power'." commented a member who was the leader of the table that was protesting so loudly.
"That's a minor setback. He's just not ready for Black Caped." said the first member.
"I say we compromise. He keeps the Black Armor, but can do Red-level chores. It'll be flashy and good motivation for the Reds and the Blacks who think they're above lower-level work."
One of the Blacks at the table glared at him.
The council voted for this.
It was unanimous.
Review, please!
