Chapter 2: The Greil Mercenaries
Meta Knight was not the only one perfecting his skills. Far away, in the land of
Crimea, a young man was ready to battle…
* * * * * * * * * *
A young woman and her companion, a young man, were in what apparently
appeared to be a war room. Both were tired, and looked as though they barely slept. The
girl, Titania, then spoke up. "It has been a while since young Ike was here, wasn't it,
Soren?" Soren only nodded. Soren was an incredible strategist, but was cursed with his
race as being despised from the world. Only Ike and the Greil Mercenaries were the ones
who accepted him, which he found to be merciful. Soren then spoke up himself.
"Master Ike has gone too long on a journey… Where can he be? That duel with the
Black Knight must have broken him, and not only that, but his father…"
Titania's voice was sharp. "Enough! Greil was a brave man, so let us not go any
further! Through him, Ike was able to overthrow Ashnard. Thankfully, let Medea's
curse die with him!!!"
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Meanwhile, in faraway land, a group of soldiers were enjoying their time in what
appeared to be a bar. The leader was a grizzly, harsh man. "WAHAHAHAHAH!!!
BRING MORE ALE!!! THEN, TOMORROW WE ATTACK THE VILLAGE!!" The
soldiers cheered at their "brave leader". Not far from where they were sitting, a hooded
figure looked up. He silently sat next to another soldier, evoking the soldier's anger.
"OY!!! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?? TRY TO SIT NEXT TO ME DO
YA??!!!" The soldier attempted to punch the stranger, but the stranger blocked the blow,
and threw the soldier out of the window. The grizzly leader looked up. "Hehehe… and
who might you be, hooded one? Why do you interrupt our meal?"
The hooded stranger then spoke. "I am on a headhunt for criminals. And I think I found
a big catch. You're Zelum, the wanted pirate, aren't you?"
"That's right, stranger! WAHAHAHAH!!! But you, catch me? You're a dead man!!
Attack him!!!"
The soldiers surrounded the hooded one, circling him and ready to attack. One of the
soldiers striked, but the stranger took out his sword, blocked the axe and slashed him out
of his mind! All the soldiers then went in at once.
"Damn… Looks like I'll have to use it…" The stranger elevated his sword. A fiery aura
surrounded him, so fierce, that it burned the fabric of his clothes! He brought down the
blade on the ground, leaving a great conflagration upon the stage!
"Inferno!!!"
The soldiers all knocked out. They were burned to crisp. Only the leader, Zelum, was
standing. The degree of the aura had burned to sword to nothing. Zelum staggered.
"You're that mercenary!!! Ike!!!"
The young man was up from the ground. His striking blue hair and his fierce appearance
was enough to show how great his power was.
Ike muttered. "Damn… That's the 30th sword I burnt this month. Titania is gonna kill
me!"
The pirate then charged. "Not before I kill you, punk!!!"
Ike smiled. He drew out a different blade. What was noticeable about the 2nd blade was
that it was sheening gold, and a blessed sword. Its 2 handed power was enough for only
one of Ike's arms. It was the blessed sword, Ragnell!!! Then, knocking the weapon off
the pirate, he swung it up the air, slashed with great ferocity!!
"GREAT AETHER!!!!"
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The pirate was knocked out… Ike later sent him to the pound, getting his hunter's fee.
"Looks like I'll have dinner tonight!" Ike cheerfully replied. But his cheer was short-
lived. Outside, the city was in a mess! Flames burst everywhere, and strange green
creatures were coming out of portals! Ike's adventure had just begun!!
That was pretty short, but I tried to make it have more action. It wasn't as great as
my last chapter, and I apologize. But Ike is so amazing that it doesn't matter!
Anyways, please review and look for the next chapter, The Lost Woods!!
