Three 10 foot tall glowing figures climbed out of the pit. 3 colors, Red, Green and Blue.

"We are the Vallas! We are your end!"

They all spoke in unison. The figures all went their own way but destroyed everything in their path. WIll could see it all from the castle roof. The three Vallas destroying everything in their path. Will knew what he had to do he climbed down from the Castle. He jumped across the houses to catch up to the green Valla. He jumped down from the building and pulled out his saxe knife.

"Last chance mortal, move Now!" The Valla said.

Will refused to move no matter how terrified he was. The Valla raised his hand, a green sword appeared in its hand. He raised his sword and swung at Will. Will ducked and dodged. The slashes were quick and could easily knock down a building. The Valla knocked down the two buildings next to Will trapping him. The Valla swung its massive broadsword. But Will had already pulled out his second knife making the defensive knife X. The Valla had extreme strength and Will was already using all of his strength. The Valla pressed harder and the strain on Will was almost unbearable. His muscles screamed at him to quit and just let himself die. But Will knew the fate of Skandia depended on him defeating the Vallas. The Valla pressed harder and Will screamed out of pain. He felt his arms breaking, and he rolled aside forcing the sword into the ground. The Valla pulled the sword out with ease and swung again. Will jumped the slash and climbed back up the building. He stood on the roof and pulled out his bow. He shot the Valla several times in the head. But it didn't really harm it. The valla began climbing the building ignoring the arrows repeatedly being shot into its head. When it reached the top, Will was ready, his bow was put away and he was armed with his saxe knife. The Valla advanced on him and swung the sword destroying most of the building. Will was on the last support on that side of the roof. He leapt forward and kicked the Valla in the face. The Valla was knocked from the roof. It landed on the ground with a loud thud. But was far from dead. The Valla's Eyes began to glow in a burning way. With anger it let out a massive roar and began to grow. Its size tripled and it stared at Will with pure hatred in its eyes.

"YOU SHALL PAY!" The Valla bellowed.

It swung its now 40 foot long sword at him. Totally obliterating the building. Will pulled himself from the rubble and looked Desperately for his Saxe knife. He looked around and saw it lying in the street 30 meters away. The Valla looked down with hate at Will. It raised it's hand and green soldiers appeared. They all drew their swords and advanced. Will took out an arrow and stabbed a soldier with it then kept running. Will sidestepped though all of the soldiers and picked up his knife. The soldiers advanced but were all stabbed and crumbled into green powder. He pulled out his long bow and shot a perfectly aimed shot right into the Valla's left eye. The Valla fell to its knees and began to crumble into green powder. Then Will fell over and collapsed exhausted.
