The Golden Knight
Chapter 3
Escape
The soldier stood unsteadily for a moment before his large body slammed to the ground, the large rock that Link had thrown had hit him in the head, where the blood started seeping out. The second soldier turned to Link and pulled out his sword. Link did not move, instead he stood still and waited. The soldier moved in front of Link, and stabbed at him through the bars, just then Link's still body, jumped into action, he side stepped the sword, and grabbed the soldier's outstretched arm, and kick the sword out of the big hands of the Rubik. Link ran and grabbed the sword and stabbed the soldier just as he was opening Link's cell. Link opened the cell, and cautiously in to the hallway, he took the keys from the dead soldiers, and stared to free to other prisoners. Link led the freed Soldiers through the halls, when a deafening ring, everyone clasped their ears in hopes it may relieve some pain. Then quiet, the liberated prisoners slow got up, and looked around. Link had kept running ignoring the pain in his ears, and now the dead body of yet another Rubik lay beside the alarm. He knew more soldiers would soon come, and he had seen an armory when he was running. Link made it back to the other prisoners, and led them to the armory, where they all pick out weapons. Link told them to stay in the armory, and wait until he got back. He grabbed the bloody sword he had used to kill the soldiers, and continued out of the armory door, and started to move stealthily through the deserted halls. As soon as he had heard the grunt of the Rubik, he ran to the nearest door, and opened it, and waited in the dark. In the darkness of the room he was in, there was a slight glow being emitted from an undistinguishable object. Link waited until the Rubik had passed, then left the room, grabbed a torch from the wall, and ran back to the room.
Again Link was inside the room, this time with the torch so he could see. He put the torch close to the object, and the reflection of the light blinded him and stung his eyes, he dropped the torch which was extinguished as he put his hands to his eyes. Link let out a cry of pain, then in the following silence, he could hear the Rubiks getting close, and he scrambled for his sword, he found it just as the door squeaked open, and Link slashed the Soldier, and pushed him out of the way. Link looked down the hall and saw 5 other soldiers, he moved into the light and advanced on the Rubiks. His bloody sword raised as his feet moved quickly but silently. The first guard turned and saw Link right as he delivered a fatal blow to the head of the Rubik soldier. The sound of his body hitting the ground, alerted the others, who were all facing Link with their own sword drawn. Link slow started backing off, and the guards started advancing on him. Then before he could react, Link had delivered another fatal blow, this time the sword pierced the Rubik armor, and went right through his heart. His Green blood started dripping from the wound as Link pulled out the sword. The other Soldiers all started running at Link. Link backed up some more, then he hit the wall behind him, he was in a dead end. The Soldiers were closing in fast, Link stared to run at them, and right before their weapons could hit Link, he was gone. The Rubiks stopped, and turned around to see that, instead of three of them, there were only two, the Third was on the ground, blood was coming out of a wound in his neck. The two soldiers made a pathetic attempt at killing Link, and before long, only Link was left alive.
Link made his way back to the room, grabbed a torch off the wall, and opened the door, as he stepped in, his foot kicked something, he looked down , and with the help of the light being emitted by the torch, identified the object. A sword, covered in the Rubiks blood. Link stepped back into the hall, and examined the sword he had in his hands. After wiping the blood off on the Rubiks clothing, he could make out some writing. The Letters were very artistic but he could still make them out. LINK, the sword had his name on it. He stumbled backwards in shock, then he closed his eyes, and fell motionless on the ground.
