I'm back with another chapter! I feel so good.
Disclaimer- The same as always. It never really changes.
Chapter 18- Death Part I
Guinevere ran out onto the field, the other words followed her, quickly catching up. She pulled out two daggers and tackled a saxon to the ground. Around her, the war had begun...
Natalie fought her way through the saxons. They were strong and did not go down willingly. She probably only killed five, and she was getting tired. They were twice her weight and slightly harder to take down than the normal enemy.
She used two small swords to cut through the saxons. She couldn't find anyone that she knew on the field. It was mostly a pack of woads everywhere. She wanted to find the knights. She ran through the crowds of bloody bodies and arrows. In the distance she saw Gawain.
He was surrounded by five saxons. She headed over toward him as he slashed one down. Gawain saw her and pointed toward a long line of fire. "Lance, needs help!" he yelled to her. Natalie strained her eyes, but couldn't see anything, the smoke and fog was blocking her from seeing across the fire.
She grabbed a horse that was close by and jumped on it. She led it across the fire to where Lancelot was fighting Crynic and Guinevere was fighting two saxons. She went over to Guinevere and took on one of the saxons. He went to hit her leg, but her one sword blocked the blow as she sent the other into his neck. The saxon fell to the ground. Guinevere looked at her. "I told you to look after Tristan." she scolded.
"He can look after himself. Gawain said Lancelot needed help." Natalie answered coldly. Guinevere saw another group of saxons heading their way. "Have you seen Emilee?" asked Guinevere. Natalie shook her head and headed towards where Lancelot left Crynic unguarded.
Crynic picked up a crossbow and aimed it at Lancelot. In the corner of his eye he saw a woad heading his way. He turned around to look at her. "The traitor?" he asked aloud. Lancelot turned back around to him and took a step towards the saxon. Crynic turned back towards the knight and let the crossbow lose as a short sword came down upon his neck...

Lauren and her other woad companions stood in trees overlooking the saxons as they were about to attack the caravan. Lauren pulled out her bow and an arrow. She notched the arrow in place and waited as the others followed her actions.
She swiftly let go and the arrows embedded themselves in three of the saxons. Lauren took another arrow and sent it at the another saxon and the woads followed. She jumped down from the tree and the others did as well.
"That was too easy." said one woad man. A voice from the trees answered him, "Your right it was." Lauren turned to see Lena there. Lauren rose an eyebrow. Lena pulled out a crossbow and held the trigger. Lauren pulled out a sword and waited for Lena to move. Lena let the trigger go and the arrow landed right in front of Lauren. "Nice try." mentioned Lauren, but before Lena could retort, Lauren through her sword at her.
Yet, it embedded itself in the tree next to Lena. Lena smirked. "We both could use work." she replied coldly. Lauren rolled her eyes and fingered her dagger on her hip. "Yet, you don't have weapons. And these poor woads won't help you." Lauren smiled as she threw her dagger and Lena embedding itself in her hand. The five woads behind her shot arrows at Lena, three lading in her. Lena fell back against the ground.
"Natalie is going to be proud of me." Lauren said to cheer herself up.

Tristan fell to the ground and started to crawl away from Cerdic. Cerdic smiled to himself as he saw the scout try to get away. He smirked as he pulled the man to his knees by his hair. Cerdic looked into the scouts eyes and said in a low dangerous voice, "You can thank your lass for this." He brought the sword above his head and brought it down.
Before it hit the scouts neck, a sword blocked him. He looked up to see a girl. Tristan slightly opened his eyes to see Emilee standing there, holding her sword in place beneath Cerdic's. Cerdic pulled his sword up and Emilee stumbled back. Cerdic abondened Tristan for the moment and moved toward Emilee. She blocked his blow to her head and the one to her arm. He knocked her onto the ground, but was knocked out of the way by a horse.
Cerdic looked up to see Arthur above him...

Lena has died. This was going to be one long chapter, but I want to make you wait to see who dies. Yes, Lena is dead. She decided to attack Lauren, which is dumb, because she cannot beat Lauren. No way. Two people die in the next chapter. You'll most likely find out tomorrow, since the chapter is already typed...but that's not going to happen at least I get more than one review. My 40th reviewer will get a cookie! I think there is about maybe two chapters or three chapters left.
Reviews-
Lucillaq- Yeppers. Well, this chapter is very short, but I'll have the next one up soon, like tomorrow if I get reviews!

Boo Boo Kitty- You've got your wish, for real this time.
