Alfheim 2

Chapter 15: Quest for the Sun Sword

Leafa and Hirada was teleported to a small field where the wind blew the flowers gently. Leafa landed on her feet icely, Hirada however had never used the teleport crystal before so he was fairly dizzy, stumbling around trying to find his footing.

Hirada corrected himself and took a look around and noticed a large silver tinted castle behind a wooden gate, and surrounded by a moat. Hirada and Leafa walked up to the moat as Hirada looked into it.

Staring blankly into the moat Hirada said, "Well, why did you bring me here for Leafa?"

Readying a bow she had looted from before and said, "You'll see in just a second. I couldn't get into this castle before because I didn't have this bow, now I'll be able to the legendary sun sword, Tournesol. It's said to be the most powerful weapon in the game!"

Hirada was curious, "So Leafa, has anyone ever obtained this sword?"

Leafa thought for a second before readying the arrow to shoot, "Now that I think about it, no, I don't think anyone has obtained the sword yet. So, we'll be the first ones to do it successfully."

Now with a blank face Hirada says, "Ok, how do you propose we go about doing this?"

Readying the arrow and shooting the rope holding the bridge up, "Like this..." The now free bridge fell quickly and opened with loads of dust coming off of it upon landing. Leafa continued, "I read up on how to get the sword, it's simple actually. The only reason noone's gotten before is because of the hidden boss just before the treasure. It's a doozie!"

Hirada raised a brow, "What is this boss, and why hasn't anyone been able to defeat it?"

Leafa putting up the bow, "Um, I don't know what it is, I didn't look that far ahead of the walkthrough. Noone can beat it because they were far underleveled when they went in. The boss itself is Lv. 40, but all of us are at least Lv.37 so we should do better than the others who tried. They tried it at Lv. 20, 25, and 32 is the highest recorded so far."

Hirada then stated, "Well then. Lets give it a go shall we?"

Leafa looked at him with her deep green eyes, smiled and said, "Sure thing bud!"

They rushed into the castle ready to defeat the boss and collect their reward. They were greeted by a small group of small low level enemies that didn't put up much of a fight.

Hirada and Leafa were a dynamic duo as they slayed most of the enemies in the next few rooms.

They made it to a room with a large enemy called a Minotaur, which was classified as a mini-boss and was a decent level. Hirada and Leafa looked at each other and nodded as they dashed towards the mini-boss.

Not much fighting was done to defeat the mini-boss honestly, just Hirada and Leafa being their awesome sword wielding selves and destroying the creature.

Now for the surpirsing part, they made it to a rather decorative door with a sword on it that neither Leafa nor Hirada has seen before, meaning it must've been the sword they were looking for.

As they began walking towards the door, it slowly opened. Behind the door was a very bright light that reverberated throughout the room they were in. The two adventurers walked into the brightly lit room with their eyes covered because of the light blinding them.

After walking into the new room they noticed the door closing quickly behind them meaning they were now at the boss, or worse. The bright light in the room faded slowly, as it did it revealed a sword in a pedastal on the other side of the room.

Leafa pointed and said, "There it is Hirada, the Tournesol, now where is the boss at?"

Just as her last word escaped her lips a rumble was felt as a circular panel opened in the cieling and a knight dressed in pure gold landed. The knight was on one knee and breathing heavily, the knight then stood up slowly.

The knight made it to his standing pose and said, "So, you think you can defeat me?! The Golden Knight Kin!? Fat chance guys... hmm?"

The knight then noticed who Hirada was and held up his hand and said, "Come here!"

With those words Hirada was lifted off the ground and levitated straight into Kin's hand choking Hirada, Kin then stated, "So, if it isn't the main hero himself, Hiro Yamada!"

Leafa heard those words and gasped as she held her hand up to her mouth with tears starting to form.

Hirada now realzing that this boss knows his real persona somehow now saying, "What the hell!? How do you know my name?"

Kin then laughed and took his mask off, with Hirada seeing his face he gasped as Kin said, "Do you remember me now?"

Hirada then squirmed as he said, "You bastard! I should've known!"

Kin smirked and said, "Remember when I said I worked on the final boss, and an additional enemy? This is that enemy! I created these two bosses to be specifically controlled by me, with that being said, I knew you'd try to come after this sword!"

Leafa was just in the back of the room crying and listening to every word being said, she was lost and confused on what was going on.

Hirada was being choked out nearly as he said faintly, "I don't know why your doing this to me, but you won't get away with it! I swear!"

Kin then grew an evil smirk and said, "Alright then... get ready to fight me then, we shall see who is stronger right here and now!"

Kin then tossed Hirada backwards, Hirada tumbling for a second regained his balance and drew his sword, he then looked back at Leafa, noticing her tears he asked, "Leafa? What's wrong?"

Leafa said softly, "It's you? Your Hiro?"

Hirada now realizing that Leafa even recognizes him also, "Wha... how do you know my name also?"

Leafa wiped her tears away and said, "Because, I am Suguha... deal with this boss and we'll talk afterwards alright?"

Hirada looked shocked and said, "Su... Suguha? Alright..." He then turned his attention towards Kin and readied his sword, as Kin did the same and smirked again.

They were both ready for battle as Kin said, "Whenever your ready Hiro!"

Whoo! I forgot how good it felt to write on fanfictions! ^_^ I know it's a little late, but I was busy yesterday and I kinda didn't get the chance to work on it last night so here it is Chapter 15! I hope I didn't ruin anything for you readers... I actually thought I did good on this one :3 The mini-boss could've been done better, I just didn't feel like dealing with it now :(.
