Here's chapter 5. Sorry for taking a long time, it's been pretty busy for me lately. This chapter is pretty long, so enjoy. :)

Disclaimer: I don't own anything in regard to Skyrim.

"So, what you are telling me," Ulfric face palmed in complete amazement, "that.. you both took out Fort Sungard with thirty men and three 'dragons'?" I didn't know what to make of his expression. Linda nodded with a still and serious face.

Ulfric started rubbing his forehead and squeezed his eyes shut. "Do you trust these beasts, Dragonborn?"

"With all due respect Ulfric, I don't think you understand the dov. Let me ask you this," She eased up and crossed her arms, "Do you trust me Jarl Ulfric?" Ulfric looked at her like she beyond mad.

"Of course I do, Dragon-"

"'Dragon', Jarl Ulfric, my very being is part dragon. If I can be trusted, then dragons can be as well. Besides, the three dragons volunteered to help us." Ulfric was playing with chin hair and he started nodding.

"Okay Dragonborn, if you trust them, then I trust them." He leaned from his thrown toward Linda and pointed at her. "Don't make me regret this." Linda simply smirked and nodded. He shifted his attention to me. I stood straight up and tried to be as formal as I could. "At ease Ralof, you know you can be informal around me. Well it seems that you did a job well done in the Reach. I want you take this armor as my gratitude." His steward came up and handed me steel-plate body armor with the Stormcloak emblem in the middle. "Oh and here, you deserve a good payment." He reached to the side of his thrown and handed me four coin purses. "One hundred septims per bag. You deserved it." I was left there speechless and agaped.

"Thank you, Jarl Ulfric." I knelt down and saluted him. Linda giggled.

"So Ulfric, what's your plan for Haafinger?"

Ulfric got up from his thrown and started toward the war room. "Follow me you two."

We surrounded the map on the table and Ulfric pointed at Fort Greenwall. "If we are to invade Solitude, we must take over Fort Greenwall. We must assure that the imperials don't have our flank. Can you both take over the fort by weeks end?"

Linda and I both nodded. "Yes sir."

"Good," he stood up, "make us proud soldiers."

With that we exited the room and left the Hall of Kings. Linda and I quickly prepared for the assault. Some soldiers came by and volunteered to join ranks with us which gave us an extra fifteen troops. Forty-five men was enough to take over the fort, not to mention the three other dragons assisting us in the sky. As soon as everyone was ready, we left for Haafinger. It was going to be a long march.

Almost three days later, we arrived at Fort Greenwall. The fort looked undermanned considering that there were only five sentries keeping watch. Fort Sungard had at least fifteen men on patrol. Maybe they are trying to look undermanned. A trap?

"Linda I don't like this, we have no way of knowing if they have an ambush waiting for us on the other side of that gate." Linda had a puzzled look and she started restlessly started looking for something in her napsack. She took out a large potion bottle.

"Do you think this will work?"

"What's in there?"

"Invisibility potion. One of the strongest I can make. It should work for five minutes." She uncorked the potion.

"Five minutes? Yeah, that should be long enough to servey the inside of the fort. Are you taking it?" She nodded and chugged the entire bottle. In the blink of an eye, she was gone. "Linda? You still-"

Suddenly I felt my lips meeting hers. Just a small kiss. "I'll be back Ralof, this shouldn't take very long." I heard her light footsteps moving toward the fort. All I had to do was wait.

"What's the plan sir?" The soldiers were getting very impatient.

"Brothers and sisters, keep your cool. Linda is in the fort as we speak serveying the place. She took a very powerful invisibility potion. She should be back moment-" Then she appeared in front of us, startling everyone.

"I'm back, good news. They are undermanned. There are at the most, thirty men in the fort. And I found this on the commander's desk." She gave me a folded piece of paper. I opened it. 'Commander, we have intel that the rebels are marching onto Solitude. However we do not know when they will launch their assault. Send forty of your men to Solitude at once. If Solitude falls to enemy hands, we will retreat to your fort and ready a counterattack. Be ready if we come. For the emperor. -General Tullius' This couldn't have been better for our cause.

"This is a note from the General. He requested that forty men would assist him in Solitude. Men, we must take over this fort. He told the commander that he would retreat if we liberated Solitude." The soldiers nodded and raised their weapons.

"Okay here's the plan Ralof, five of our men will take our their sentries and we quietly invade the fort and finish the job."

"Sounds good, I need five expert archers up here." The soldiers rambled around looking in the ranks. Three women and two men stepped up. "Can you five take out those sentries quietly?" They nodded without hesitation. "Good, now get into position, release on my mark." They moved in position around the fort and drew an arrow.

The rest of us got ready to move. "Go." I raised my arm and dropped it quickly. The soldiers fired at the sentries and took them out. The sentries were dead before they hit the ground.

"Okay, let's go." We all moved into the fort. There was no one present outside other than the five dead sentries. We moved into the fort. There was an imperial in the mess hall sitting next to the fire. "I got this, hold on." I crept up to the soldier as quietly as I possibly could. I fiercely covered his mouth and stabbed him in the neck with my dagger, his hands were flailing about. He started making a sickening gurgling noise and blood started gushing out of his neck as. His arms went limp and he dropped on the ground.

"Where did you learn to sneak up on people?" I looked at Linda like she had two heads.

"How do you think I get around the imperial hold ups on the roads?" She smirked and shook her head. I smiled back. "Yeah, come on let's finish this." She nodded and we crept towards the barracks. We opened the door to see them all sleeping in their bunks peacefully. Well, it won't be peaceful any more. I motioned the soldiers to take care of them, they nodded and went in with their daggers unsheathed. Linda and I moved on to the commanders quarters.

We opened up the door and heard a voice, "Hey! Who in the name of Akatosh is bothering me at this hour?" Linda and I looked at each other. His bunk was on the other side of the door when we opened it. He got up fiercely and walked to the door, "I told you..." His eyes went wide eyed when he saw us.

"Hello commander, nice night for a talk, eh?" Linda gave him a devilish look. He started to walking backwards and we followed. He tripped over a crack in the ground.

"What do you want from me?!" His face was filled with complete horror.

"We just have some questions." She was looking at her ebony dagger and she checked how sharp the blade was. She looked back at the commander who was probably shitting in his armor. She pointed her dagger at his knee cap. "How many troops are in Solitude?" He started hyperventilating.

"Uhh.. I don't know! AHH!" Linda stuck her blade in his knee cap.

"There's no way of knowing! Argh!" Linda twisted the blade in his knee making a sickening slicing sound. "Around two hundred troops! Maybe more! I have no idea on the exact number." She nodded and pulled out her dagger. He was still in agony, yelling and screaming.

"Well that wasn't do hard was it?" Linda cleaned her dagger on one of his shirts.

"W-what are you going to do now?" Linda looked at him with a devilish smile.

"You like Soverngard? Or the Viod?"

"Uhh, what do you mean?" His face had horror written all over it.

"Soverngard or the Viod?"

"... Soverngard.."

"Okay, well you have to fight then. Try." She picked up his sword and through it to him. They both knew it wasn't a fair fight, but at least he will die fighting. I just stood back and watched the show.

The commander picked up his sword and started swinging, there was no form at all to it because of his knee. He fell to the ground and and started yelling at Linda. Linda stabbed him right in the spine and he stopped moving.

I shook my head,"At least he goes to Soverngard.." Linda nodded and pulled her sword out. We went back to the barracks to see that all the imperials where stabbed in their sleep. The soldiers were starting to gather them up and through them outside. "So what are we going to tell Galmar and Ulfric?"

"Just what we know." She pulled on my armor, "Let's go."

"So, what you are saying is that if we overrun the fort, they will retreat to Fort Greenwall not aware that our troops are ready for an ambush?" Ulfric crossed his arms and twirled his chin hair.

"Yessir."

"Good, Good job soldiers. Dragonborn, you have earned the name Storm-Blade." He put a hand on her shoulder and smile. Then he looked at me. "As for you Ralof," He gave me a big grin, "you earned yourself the ability to lead all the troops into Solitude. I realized your skill in leading and I want you to lead this attack with Galmar, Storm-Blade, and I. Is that acceptable?" His face suddenly became serious. I froze up not knowing what to say. Ulfric say that I was hesitating and he smirked. He raised his eyebrows and put his hand on my shoulder. "Trust me Ralof, I should of done this months ago."

"Y-yessir." He grinned and let out that deep laugh of his. "I won't let you down Jarl Ulfric."

"I know you won't Ralof. You'll be fine. So, did either of you get have any idea how many troops we are up against?" We both nodded. "Well, how many are we facing?" He crossed his arms.

"Well, the commander at the fort told us around... Two hundred, maybe more." Ulfric's eyes widened at the statement. He started rubbing his forehead and started pacing back and forth in the tent. He then looked at Linda with a puzzled look.

"Storm-Blade, you think you can get your dragon buddies to help us with this one?" Linda looked at him like he was completely out of his mind.

"Yeah of course Ulfric." She couldn't hold back her laugh. "Odahviing, Krilloksil, and Britsotzii would surely help us. And yes Ulfric, we can trust them. I promise you that." Ulfric simply nodded and grinned. I could see that he liked this plan more than he showed it.

"Alright. Well call them in soon."

"I will call them tomarrow. They aren't the quietest sleepers you know." Ulfric cracked a smile and so did I. Krilloksil was very loud when he was sleeping at Sungard.

"Alright, well you two get some sleep for tomorrow then. The battle will be tomorrow evening. Understood?"

"Yessir." We saluted and left his tent. I started walking to my fort until it felt like my armor was being pulled. I turned quickly and saw Linda looking at me with eyes like a sabre tooth cat.

"Where ya goin, Ralof?" She started pulling me closer.

"Uhh, my tent, if that's okay with you." She smirked started to get closer to me. I didn't know what to do.

"Absolutely not. Your coming to my tent tonight, if that's okay with you." Her smile widened and my heart dropped and started beating extremely fast.

"Uhh, okay.." Instantly, she pulled me right in her tent and quickly closed the entrance.

She turned around and took off her steel plate armor, in front of me for gods sakes. All that was left was her undershirt and a short pair of pants. "Well, you like what you see Ralof?" I couldn't think of anything to say. I started swaying my head trying not to look at her body directly. She only giggled at my hesitation. "Don't be ashamed. Would it make you feel better that I like what I see?" My heart stopped. I turned my head and locked my eyes on her beautiful emerald eyes. "I'll take that as a yes then." She smirked and squinted her eyes. She pointed her hands at my cuirass. "Off." She gave me a devilish smile. I nodded and started taking off my cuirass.

All that I had on were my shorts. She looked at my chest gasped. I looked down at my chest and wondered what she was gasping at. "What?"

"Your pretty built, big boy. I like it." She winked at me and motioned me to move toward her. I started moving toward her and when I got close enough, she held my hands. She moved me toward her bed. I sat down on the bed and set sat right next me. "Lay down." She said very softly in my ear. I slowly laid down on the bed and when I was fully extended on the bed, she moved on top of me. She laid one of her hands on my cheek and started moving closer to my face until our lips met. I wrapped my arms around her body and massaged her back. She placed both of her hands on my cheeks and they started moving down to my neck, then my chest. She wrapped her arms around my body and I turned her to her side, never breaking the kiss. All my worries and stress, left me at that moment.

"You are a good kisser, for a beginner." I gave her a smirk and she pecked another kiss on my lips. She started pulling up her undershirt slowly. "Close your eyes." I did. I heard the shirt hit ground and she picked up my hands and she moved them onto her breasts. "Have you ever seen or felt these before, Ralof?" I opened up my eyes to see her breathtaking breasts. I shook my head slowly. She giggled. I could feel myself getting stiffer down south. "Wow, these are the first you've seen."

"Yeah.."

"Well, that's no big deal. You are going to have a crazy night either way, big boy." Once again she gave me a sabre tooth cat stare and we starting kissing again. It was going to be a crazy night..
