…Chapter 1…Part 2…
At the town center
"Sauren? Sauren…… huh? Where'd he go?" She sat down, panting.
(snap) a sound of a tree branch snapping by being stepped on….
"Sauren? Is that you?" Looking around for Sauren.
Laila heard an angry growl from behind her…
"What was that?" Looking behind her.
A black wolf was there, glaring and growling at Laila. Laila's eyes grew wide with horror as she stared at the huge beast… and in a flash the wolf pounced toward Laila!
"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh" Laila screamed as she covered her face with her hands.
Something suddenly pierced the wolf's leg. The wolf howled in pain as it limped as fast as its legs could take.
"You okay?" said a voice coming from behind Laila
"Um……y-yah…" Laila said as turned her head to see who it was.
It was Sauren…That was quite obvious…..,but who cares
"You better get up now since we might be ambushed" He held out his hand to help Laila up.
"Thanks." She took Sauren's hand.
"Hey where's your sword?" Looking around for it.
"I threw it at the wolf, didn't you see it?" He raised one of his eyebrows.
"No."
(Sigh) Sauren sighed
"What?"
"How am I supposed to protect the town from this attack without a sword?" he glared at Laila with narrowed eyes.
"Well you should have thought of that before you threw it!"
"If I haven't thrown it you would be injured now, and probably dead!" shouting at Laila"
Laila flinched
"Sorry." Sauren apologized.
"That was mean."
Silence…
"Well, I better go help the other villagers…" Sauren said. "Bye."
He ran to help the other villagers.
After an afternoon of helping the other villagers drive away the monsters… At Sauren's house.
(Sigh) "That was a long day…" Sauren said; relieved, as he lay on his bed; tired
(Knock) There was a knock on Sauren's door.
"What?!" he groaned.
"Um…… Can I come in?" Laila asked; still outside Sauren's room.
"Huh? Sure." He sat up.
"Sorry for awhile ago." She went in Sauren's room at sat on the chair by the corner.
"Don't worry about awhile ago." Sauren said. "You gotta worry about the next attack instead."
"Huh?" confused.
"You have to learn how to use a weapon so that you can defend your self."
"Uh…… I don't think anyone can teach me…"Laila said. "Everyone is too busy with repairs…"
"Then I'll teach you since I need to practice anyways…" Sauren offered.
"Ok!"
"Let's go start then…" Sauren said as he stood up and grabbed Laila's arm and headed for the door.
"Hey!"
At the fields.
"Which one do you wanna try first?" he showed Laila all of the weapons.
"Um…… This one!" she picked up a bow.
"A bow and arrow?"
"Is that what this is called?"
"Uh…yeah… So wanna try it?"
"Yup!"
"Okay…First you put your left hand here then put your other hand here and then insert that here then pull that up to here then align it here then aim then let go of this…." Sauren said; teaching Laila
"Okay I think I got it." Laila said as she scratched her head while staring at the bow and arrow on her hand.
"You wanna see it done first?" Sauren offered.
"Uh… Okay." She gave the bow and arrows to Sauren.
"Look carefully alright….?" Sauren instructed.
"K"
(Shut!) The arrow hit the target from 30 feet away.
"Wow!" Laila said, amazed.
"Um… Sorry that was a horrible shot…" Sauren apologized, blushing "I'm not very good with this weapon…."
"That wasn't good?" Laila asked, puzzled.
"Er…. No. I didn't hit the bull's eye."
"Oh well that doesn't matter, let me try then…" Laila grabbed the bow and arrow. "Here goes…"
(Ssshuuutt!!) The arrow hit the bull's eye!
"Yehey I hit it!" Laila jumping up and down.
"OMG! She's good! Even I can't hit the bull's eye…." Sauren thought
"Was that any good?" Laila asked.
"Er…… um…… yeah….." Sauren said; struggling for words.
"Any way let's practice some more!" Laila said; excited
"K."
After a few hours of training…
"Hey, Laila…, your aunt's looking for you!" Called a guy from the village.
"Huh? Oh ok. Thanks Jake!" Laila said "Well see you tomorrow then…" Looking at Sauren this time.
"Sure!"
"K! Bye!"
At Sauren's house
"Hey mom I'm home!" Sauren shouted as he went in the door.
"Are you hungry? I have some food on the table." Mrs. Ferlon said.
"No thanks."
"Okay."
"Hey mom can get something from dad's room?" Sauren asked.
"What do you want to get?"
"I wanna see if dad has any weapons I could borrow for awhile…"
"Why what happened to the short sword you made?"
"Er….um…… I sorta lost it…." Sauren said; embarrassed.
"Oh well… I guess you can check if your dad has any."
"Thanks!"
At Mr. Ferlon's room
"Hm…… where should I look…?" Sauren; talking to himself "I wonder if I can find something here in his closet."
(Thud) Sauren tripped Do not be surprised if our young hero trips a lot he's not mental or has some broken leg, he's just a clutz that's all.
"Ouch! That hurt… What did I trip on?" Sauren wondered.
Sauren searched the floor where he tripped on
"Oh…It's just a boring handle of some sort of secret cabinet…" Silence… "Wow! There is a secret cabinet on the floor this is awesome!" Our hero also has a slow brain apparently… (--' ) I'm starting to wonder why he's the hero……
"I wonder what's inside!" Sauren; exited "Wow this thing is hard to pull!" Sauren complained as he pulled the lever with all his strength.
Not that he has any… But he manages to open it some how…
"Finally, it's open…" Sauren panting… "Huh? What's this…? It's a long thing wrapped on old cloth…… Hm… I wonder what's inside…"
He opened the package
"Wow! It's two awesome swords!" Sauren said; amazed. "Wow I never knew had these here… actually I never knew he had these…!"
"I guess I'll borrow this… but I don't think mom will let me since she doesn't like violence… I should just probably keep this in my room so that she won't find out…" Sauren smirked at the thought. He doesn't call his room a fire cave anymore like he used to.
"Sauren are you in here?" Mrs. Ferlon
"Huh? Hah? Um… Yah…" Sauren was hiding his hands the swords in his hands..
"It's late you should go to sleep..." Mrs. Ferlon said.
"Huh? Oh okay…" Sauren said kind of scared that his mom might see the swords.
Sauren going out of the room; walking like a crab (meaning walking from left to right while facing front…with a fake smile on his face.
Mrs. Ferlon walked into the room and opened the secret closet
(Sigh) "He's just like his father" She frowned then looked at the picture of her husband
In Sauren's room
"I should sleep already, it's getting late and I have to wake up early in the morning." Sauren said.
In his dream
"Huh? Where am I?" Sauren said as he looked at the darkness around him. "Wasn't I in my room sleeping? How in the world did I get here?"
(There was a sound of footsteps)
Sauren looked at where it came from… then he saw…
"Dad!" He cried out.
It was his dad walking away from him his back turned.
"Dad!" Sauren cried again as he ran after him.
But he couldn't catch him. And his dad was disappearing.
"NO!"
Sauren rose from his bed finally awake.
"It was just a dream." Sauren said; relieved.
(Kkrrrr…..) His stomach grumbled
"Huh? I guess I should go down stairs and eat breakfast."
Downstairs
"Hey mom what's for breakfast?" Sauren asked as he ran down the stairs.
"The usual." His mom replied as she placed Sauren's breakfast on the table.
When Sauren got downstairs he saw…
"Laila?! What are YOU doing here?"
"I was here even before you woke up!" Laila said smirking.
"Leave! Now!" Sauren said shouting.
"Sauren! Don't be rude to your friend!" Mrs. Ferlon scolded
"Yeah, don't be rude!" Laila said smirking.
"Ah nevermind!" Sauren complained as he sat down and ate his breakfast.
In the fields…Again…
"I never knew what happened to my wallet…" Laila said as she shot an arrow at the target.
"We can look for it later after lunch.' Sauren said.
"But it's lunch already! Can we have a break and eat lunch already?" Laila begged.
"Fine."
Outside the local restaurant
"That chicken was sooo delicious" Laila said
"Yeah I know" Sauren glared at her.
Flash back
"Thish ish shoo ghoodh!!" Laila told Sauren as she chewed on a piece of chicken.
"What?!" Sauren answered; confused.
Laila cleared her throat then said "I said this is good!!"
"Stop talking with your mouth full!" Sauren ordered
"Hmph!"
As they were eating… Laila tried to get Sauren piece of chicken… but Sauren saw her…
"AHA!" Sauren slammed his fist down the table just as Laila fork touched the chicken but…… a bowl of hot soup fell on Sauren's pants…
"Yeowch! AW! AW! AW! AW! AW! AW! AW! AW!" Sauren shouted while he jumped up and down.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! You sound like a dog!" Laila told him.
End of Flash Back
"But you still got the chicken and my pants are still wet!!" Sauren glared at Laila.
Suddenly there was an earthquake then the sky turned red…
"W-what's h-happening?" Laila muttered; scared.
"I don't know but I know this is a bad thing..." Sauren said as he looked at the now red moon that suddenly appeared.
Their normal moon is color blue.
"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!" a villager screamed.
"What the!" Sauren shouted as he turned around "What's happening?!"
A giant griffin suddenly swooped down and destroyed a house.
"Shoot! I gotta get the swords!" Sauren growled while running to his house.
"Hey! Where are you going?" Laila cried out to Sauren.
"Just wait there!"
Back at Sauren's house
"Sauren!" Mrs. Ferlon said; relieved.
"Mom! I gotta help the villagers."
"Ok, here take it…" Mrs. Ferlon handed him the two swords he found last night.
"How did you-"
"Nevermind it for now you have to help the others."
"Alright!" Sauren ran out of the house.
Back at the town center
"When will he come back?" Laila complained.
"AAAAAAAARRRGGGHHH!!" An ogre shouted while raising his club and about to hit Laila.
"Aaaaahhh!!" Laila screamed.
(Shing) a sword suddenly cut the ogre into two.
"You okay?" a voice asked.
"Huh? Where's the huge ugly thing?" Laila asked as she looked for the ogre.
"You mean this guy?" Sauren asked as he raised the upper part of the dead ogre and showing it to Laila.
"EEEEEEEEK!!" Laila cried out. "Get that thing away from me!"
"Hahahahahahahaha!!" Sauren laughed out loud; rolling on the floor.
"Hmph!" Laila ignored him.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" Sauren still rolling on the floor.
"Are you done?" Laila glaring at Sauren
"Yah yah I am…"
"So what now?"
"AAARRRGGGHHH!!" an ogre was attacking them with a pack of black wolves.
"Here!" Sauren threw Laila A bow and a quiver of arrows.
"Thank you!"
"Let's go!"
After 3 hours
"Will this ever end?" Sauren complained as he killed another wolf.
"Just hang on a little more there only 5 left." Laila said from a tree she climbed.
"Yaaaaaaaaahhh!" Sauren shouted as he killed a griffin. "That's the last…"
"Um…… wrong again…" Laila said as she saw a bunch of more monsters charging from afar.
Sauren groaned. (Thud) Sauren fell on the floor
"Sauren!"
"I'm okay just let me rest a while I tired. You take care of the monsters for a while." Sauren grumbled.
"Um… I can't…… I'm out of arrows…"
"WHAT?! HOW MANY DID YOU BRING?!" Sauren shouted as he sat up.
"Sorry…Um… 25…"
"25?! ONLY?! JEEZ!"
"women…can't live with 'em… ever. Or else you';; end up killed." Sauren grumbled.
(Sigh) "You're gonna owe me for this." Sauren said as he stood up.
"LET'S GO!!"
