( A. N so yeah think of the movies battle but I had to change it a little to go with my story)

Today was the day that the knights had waited for 15 years. Their freedom was so close, all they had

to do was get the Bishop and the slips was theirs. Before dawn the knights and Ebony meet in the

stables to start their journey. Spending most of the night thinking of what to do Ebony got very

little sleep so was extremely exhausted. Soon however she was fully awakened by the jostling she

got by riding the horse. Ebony was thankful for the silence while she and Tristan scouted ahead to

where they had to meet Germanous. Everything was silent as they waited to see the carriage and the

Roman soldiers. They luckily only had to weight another 20 minuets until they Romans appeared.

The Romans where only 200 meters away when the first Roman was shot down soon followed by a

mass of Woads. It wasn't long before the knights rode to fight the Woads. Ebony was in a little

shock for she had never seen a hoard this big, she nearly laughed at how one of the strongest

empires soldiers, looked scared at the wild man of the Britain hills. The knights had taken out most

of the men and where down to the last 20. Out of the corner of her eye Ebony noticed one Aiming

an arrow straight for Lancelot's heart. Her body moved before her brain could catch up with it and

rite as she jumped the arrow was shot landing in her stomach. Lancelot looked in horror as he

noticed the arrow sticking out of his sister. He went to go to her but was stopped by another Woad

charging at him. When he turned around his sister was back on her feet fighting but you could tell

she was weak by the way she swayed. It wasn't long before she had hit the ground, luckily the

Woads had all been dispatched of. Lancelot quickly sprinted over to Ebony while the other who

hadn't noticed yet went with Arthur. All except Dagonet hadn't noticed and he quickly rushed over

to Ebony.

"Are you bloody insane never mind don't answer that" Lancelot started

" Ay Lance I'm insane but I just saved your ass so be thankful" Ebony shot back

Ebony gasped as she felt the arrow pulled out of her body. She knew it had been coming which is

why she had agreed to talk to her brother and not pay attention.

" Tis bleeding bad an I have little supplies we need to get you back to the castle kitten or else well

where not going there" Dagonet said

" Ay pappa please Lance don't tell them and ruin their freedom surprise, if they ask simply say that I

hate Romans and didn't want to wait around for the pig and I would see them later" Ebony said

silently pleading with her brother

" Ok little one but ride swiftly" Lancelot said.

Dagonet pulled Ebony on the horse then after attaching hers they made their way back to the castle.

He rode swiftly knowing that this much blood lose was a horrible thing. By the time they had gotten

to the castle Ebony had fainted beyond worry Dagonet rushed her to his room where all the supplies

would be waiting. He always had them waiting when the knights went on a close mission because

some one always got hurt. It wasn't until he was on his last stitch a couple hours later did she wake

up.

" You gave me quite a scare kitten" Dagonet said solemnly

" Sorry Papa is it time to meet with the roman pig yet" Ebony asked

" Nay there still is an hour before the official meeting in the meeting hall" Dagonet said

" Then there isn't much time to spare help me to my room so I can be presentable for our guest"

Ebony said slowly getting up

" You were badly wounded and just woke up do you really think I'm going to let you do that"

Dagonet said with a frown

"Aye I do I have waited for this day with you for nearly a year I am going to stand by your sides and

either your going to help me or I might pull my stitches out by doing it all by myself" Ebony said

hands on her hips.

" Fine but be careful your still weak" Dagonet said helping her up the rest of the way

Dagonet couldn't help but smile because even though she was hurt Ebony would still stand by the

knights side. This young woman who he could claim as daughter made him extremely proud. It took

longer then usual to get to Ebony's room because Dagonet made her go extremely slow. While she

got dressed he waited out side. It didn't take long before Ebony walked out in a dark red dress and

her long raven hair in a braid. She smiled at him and then gently grabbing his arms she made her way

to the hall where everybody was meeting. When they got there both where welcomed with smiling

faces. All the men were excited about their freedom, 15 years had been a long wait but now they all

knew it was worth it.
