-----------------------------------------

The sound of the roaring Saxons below filled her ears as she and the men left their post atop the hill. Racing to lower ground the group came to an abrupt halt.

"Arthur?" Lillian asked rather suprised at the stop. Looking across the field she saw the more figures emerging from the smoke. "Why do you stop, they will see us." Lillian said silently urging the Roman to continue while the knights still had the upper hand.

"We wait for the signal." Arthur answered her patiently.

Glancing to the others, she hoped to understand the meaning behind the Romans words. Hearing the roar of the Saxons once more she brought her eyes back to the army of men. Through the thick smoke she managed to see them heading in their direction. They had been spotted. Panic struck her when all of the sudden she heard the loud creak of the gates. The wind rang clear with the sound of the closing doors and admist the smoke she saw the suprised look on the Saxons faces as the gates slammed shut behind them, sealing them off from any possible assistance.

"We ride in hard and fast. Tear through their lines and take down as many as you can, then come around for another blow." Arthur announced as he readied himself for the onslaught to come. She watched as the Roman quickly eyed the sky and Lillian too did the same. Tearing through the clouds of smoke around them she saw what must be the signal Arthur had talked about. A mass down pour of arrowssilentlybore downupon the unsuspecting Saxons as Arthur took off for the group of men. Arming themselves the knights followed his lead.

"Be carefull." Lancelot quickly whispered to her before riding off after his comrades, sword at the ready.

Unsheathing the sword Jols had given her she followed in suit taking down several Saxons as she went. Their blood covering her legs and tarnishing the armor she now wore.Turning around she saw more arrows fall down from above. Screams of men indicated they had hit their marks. Sword gripped tightly she bore in once again upon the Saxons wose back now faced her. Her sword went cleanly through and the sound of his scream and the thud as his body sunk to the earth was all she heard from him as she raced away. When all was dead only then did Arthur pull the knights back, allowing the gates to open wide once more, daring the others to enter. Counting the mounted men Lillian was releaved to find all intact and well, blood covering the shins of their armor. Reaching up to her chest she felt the necklace settle.

"Here. You gave me this in the hopes that it would keep me safe so that we would see eachother again and it has. Now it belongs back with you." Lancelot said tying the necklace around her neck. "I have no need for it now. There are no more battle to fight. I do not need its safety anymore."

Angry shouts arose from the surviving Saxons that remained outside the wall. In moments the army filled the battlefield once more, looking for the enemy.

"I hope you have a few more tricks up your sleeve Arthur, because I do not believe they will fall for that again." Lillian said aloud dropping her hand back down to the reigns of her horse.

. Glancing over the mass of men her eyes fell upon Cerdic and Cynric and her heart skipped a beat. Looking to her right she saw Lancelot. The armored helmet he now wore could not hide the anger she swore she saw on his face. Turning away from him she saw Dagonet to her left. Looking over he smiled at her and nodded slightly. The roaring of the Saxon drew her attention once more as the large group broke in two. A large fire ripped down the center of them as the Woad arrows lit the oil lacing the ground a flame. Another roar surged through the air, this coming from the sides of her and them men. Looking she saw Woads emerge from the woods, swords drawn. Weapons at the ready Arthur led them back to battle.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Racing hard he broke through the large crowd of Saxons, sword drawn and taking down one after another as he burst through. Eventually the crowd became to much when out of nowhere a Saxon jumped bringing the dark knight to the ground. Grabbing a hidden knife he thrust it into the man, killing him. All around him he saw Saxons and Woads fighting, not far off he saw several knights. Reaching back he unsheathed his second sword and went deeper into the abyss of warring bodies, searching for the one he wished to see most of all.

------------------------------------------------------------------

She did not see what happened to him. She had looked back and he was no longer on his horse. Dismounting she brung her sword steadily in front of her as severalSaxons came her way.

"Well, well, well. What have we here." one spoke up through his rotting teeth. His axe hung carefree over his shoulder. "Looks like Kendra here's found herself a new side to fight on."

"Not a new one." Lillian spat back bitterly. Her eyes darting from one man to the others. "The right one." Grasping her sword tighlty in her hands she waited for the battle to begin. All around them she heard the screams of dying men and women but she dared not look to see if any of the voices belonged to those of the knights.

"Say, how much ya think Cerdic will give us for gettin' rid of ya right now?" The other questioned drawing her attention as he swung his sword teasingly at her. Blocking the blow she threw him back. The smug look that lit up his face fell and anger took its place. "Stupid wench, perhaps we'll have our way with ya first." Racing towards her he brung his sword down at her. Dodging his blow she brung her sword down hard upon his back. Removing her sword from his flesh just in time to block an oncoming blow from one of the remaining Saxons. Hitting his sword away she brought hers back around just in time to hit him. Giving way just slightly the man fell towards her, loosing his balance. Coming from behind the remaining Saxon screamed bringing his axe towards her. Pulling her sword free from the dying man she deflected several blows from the angry Saxon.

"Come on Kendra ya really dont think you could beat all of us do ya." the remaining Saxon said as their interlocked weapons started to lower. Letting loose of his weapon with one hand he back handed her hard. Sending her back several paces. Tumbling to the ground she found a blood soaked knife protruding from a dead woad, reaching her hand out she pulled it lose. Turning quickly she tossed it at the man, piercing his gut. Sword in hand she stood.

"My name is Lillian." she stated angrily as she took one last swipe at the man with her blade sending his head falling to the ground only moments before his body.

Returning to the battle around her she raced to take down several more Saxons. Her eyes finally landing on Cerdic as started to fight with the figure she made out to be that of Tristan. Her heart raced as she saw the knight tumble slightly. Taking a nearby Saxon down Lillian ran to help the injured knight. Only to be knocked swiftly to the ground by the blow ofa Saxon.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

He took down Saxon after Saxon as Lancelot weaved his way through the bodies of warring Saxons and Woads, knowing that each one brought him closer to his goal. Finally the target that had eluded him was now within sight. Not far off he saw the Saxon knock her to the ground as Lancelot raced to stop the final blow that was most definitely to come. Rolling out of the way Guinevere left to find another Saxon to kill, thankfull to be saved by the dark haired Sarmatian.

"Come on Knight." Cynric spat out. Swords clashed as the two fought.
