Dextrox woke up early that morning. He looked out of his window. The sky was as black as the eyes of a Minion. He stood up in the chilly air. Dextrox looked at the letter that he had placed next to his bedside then he remembered the project he had to complete. Dextrox got right to work. He first prepared his work table. He got some empty flasks and put them aside for now. He found what he was looking for. It was a book that showed all the information known to wizard-kind. He had gotten this as a gift from his parents. They had given him this gift before he went to the Alchemist Academy. This was his reminder of them. He remembered fond memories of his parents. They were never strict. Dextrox realized that he was straying from work. Dextrox read through the book and found the qualities of the Barbarian, Archer and Goblin.

Barbarian

The bBrbarian is a ruthless mad man who will destroy anything in his or her path. A Barbarian has a lot of muscle power for its size. But not a high amount of brain power. It has the IQ of a snail. It gets it's raw strength from pure E2. Also known as pure Elixir. Approximately 5 liters have to be crudely injected into a villager to give it the strength of a Barbarian. Male villagers respond better towards the Elixir than females do.

Strength: 246%

Stamina: 203%

Speed: 138%

Evasiveness: 57%

Archer

The Archer is a cunning and resourceful offender. They are quick, stealthy and smart. They have specially tuned senses that can detect even the faintest of things. The Archer requires 10 liters of Elixir. The arrows shafts and arrow tips of the Archer's arrows are made of hardened Elixir. Their arrows are one of the reasons that the Archer is so deadly. Females are proven to have better skill in archery than the male subjects.

Goblin

The Goblin is one of the sworn enemies of mankind. They are quick, ruthless and have an eye for gold. They are tamed by a special spell. It is different for every village. They won't stop at anything to steal that golden coin out of your pocket. If you want them to be at maximum speed you must inject 4 liters of Elixir into it's blood stream. Use 10 liters of Elixir and merge it into it's bag. The last liter should be given to give it a thirst for Elixir. The best subjects are Goblins captured from the Goblin kingdom.

Dextrox closed his book. He needed to give the speed and lust for loot of a Goblin, the cunning and accuracy of an Archer and the destructive force of a Barbarian. Dextrox pondered in thought. He got some papers and started writing some calculations because he needed to find out what things he needed and the amount of Elixir that was needed. Dextrox spent the whole morning calculating possibilities of what the Elixir consumption should be and how he would create the creature. Dextrox only paused to have a bite to eat. Dextrox sadly realized that he had no food left. Not even a single crumb. Dextrox left for the Town Hall. He overheard the grumbling of Jeb.

"I flippin' hate that the chief! Made me make a new upgrade to the Archer Towers. I really want to whack his tiny skull into pieces!" Jeb complained.

Dextrox walked past quickly not wanting to capture the attention of Jeb. Especially not in his current mood.

"Hey Dextrox!"

Dextrox sighed and turned towards Jeb.

"Yes?" asked Dextrox

"Why does the chief treat you so well?" demanded Jeb

"I don't know..." Dextrox admitted

"Because your his baby," Jeb taunted, "Everyone is his baby. Hah! All his little baby!"

"Uh..." Dextrox began

"Yeah!" Jeb interrupted, "Go cry to mommy!"

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING MOMMY!?" a voice demanded. It was Chief Sarius.

"N-n-no one..." Jeb stammered

"WELL IT BETTER NOT HAVE BEEN ME!" Sarius shouted, "OR YOUR PAY WOULD HAVE GONE DOWN THE DRAIN!"

Dextrox heard Jeb gulp. He realized that Jeb was not as tough as he seemed.

"Come with me Dextrox." Chief Sarius said coldly. He was in a horrible mood.

Dextrox could not reply to that. He looked at his toes and followed the chief. They walked to the outskirts of the village.

Chief Sarius took a deep breath. Then he spoke, "I apologize for the outburst back there. It's just that some of our guards ware drunk and they let 4 Goblins sneak by. We just lost 300,000 golden coins."

"Oh." Dextrox replied stupidly.

"Well," Chief Sarius said with a sigh, "There's nothing to do to get the gold back now... What do you want?"

"I needed some food. I don't have anymore left." Dextrox answered honestly.

"Go to the Town Hall and ask the head villager Alex to bring some food to your Laboratory. And say you have my permission. He should trust you. If he doesn't come back and fetch me." Chief Sarius explained.

"Ok thanks." Dextrox thanked as he walked towards the Town Hall which was on the other side of the village.

Dextrox made sure he took the route away from Jeb. Dextrox knew that both Chief Sarius and Jeb were both in bad moods today. He really hoped that they would have calmed down by the following day. Dextrox arrived at the Town Hall after a solid 20 minutes of walking. The route he took was the longer one but the safer one. He knocked on the doors of the Town Hall and saw Alex open the door.

"Yes?" he asked

"I need some provisions," Dextrox explained, "You see I am running low on fo.."

"No-one asks for no-nothing without the chief's permission." Alex rudely interrupted.

"I did get his permiss..." Dextrox said.

"Oh yea?" demanded Alex, "Where is it?"

"He..." Dextrox tried to say before he was interrupted again.

"See you don't have it! Now get out of here!" Alex shouted

Alex slammed the door in Dextrox's face. Dextrox knew that Alex had gone one step to far. Dextrox banged on the door furiously. Alex opened up.

"You still?" Alex demanded, "Truck and Bull!"

"Yes?" answered two Barbarians who were guarding the inside of the Town Hall.

"Get this man out of here!" Alex commanded.

"But.." one of the Barbarians said in confusion.

"What?" demanded Alex.

"He's the Alchemist that the chief hired..." stammered the Barbarian.

"Com'n Truck! Its not like we are going to kill him." said the second Barbarian. It sounded like he was trying to convince him self more than Truck.

"Ok Bull, you're right." admitted Truck

"Just get him out of here!" shouted Alex. He was bouncing up and down.

Dextrox was not idle during this conversation. He had been silently chanting a spell. The two Barbarians approached with caution knowing something was wrong. Dextrox then released his spell. The legs of the two Barbarians turned to stone. Then Dextrox quickly chanted another spell and unleashed it towards Alex. Ropes came out of nowhere and tied Alex up.

"You little..." Alex began.

"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!" a loud voice boomed over the Town Hall. It was Chief Sarius.

"You see Chief Sarius..." Alex began.

"Let me tell you" Dextrox interrupted.

"I was about to ask for some food before Alex here interrupted me and said that I was not allowed to ask for anything without you around. I wanted to say that you gave me permission but he still ignored me. Then he slammed the door on me. I knocked on the door again and then Alex was annoyed. He commanded two Barbarians to throw me away. I turned their legs to stone. It is a temporary spell mind you. Then I tied up Alex so that I could properly talk to him." Dextrox recounted.

Chief Sarius went into deep thought for a few seconds. Then he said, "Get your food Dextrox and can you remove the stone from Truck's and Bull's legs?"

Dextrox chanted another spell. After a few seconds he sent a bright burst of light towards Truck and Bull. The stone from their legs disappeared leaving their normal legs behind. Then he overheard Chief Sarius commanding the Barbarians to untie Alex and to bring him to his private chamber. Dextrox asked Max, another villager, to get some food and to help deliver it to the Laboratory. They began the 25 minute walk to the Laboratory and while they were walking Dextrox made sure to hide behind his crate of food once they walked past Jeb. Dextrox had enough craziness for today but luckily for Dextrox, Jeb had gone in the opposite direction to go get more supplies from the storages. Dextrox and Max finally arrived at the Laboratory. They unloaded all the provisions into a small cellar under the Laboratory to store it. Dextrox thanked Max. He gave Max a small tip for helping him. Max's eyes opened in surprise as he got 150 gold coins! Max bowed in gratitude and jogged back to the Town Hall. Dextrox watched him running back to the Town Hall like a cheetah. Probably because he is over-excited Dextrox reckoned as he closed the door to the Laboratory. He sat down on his stool and then thought for a few seconds. Then he went to the cellar and got a nice beautiful loaf of bread. Dextrox cut a nice thin slice of it and then he quickly gobbled it down. He felt it settle into his stomach. His feeling of hungriness disappeared instantly. He looked out of the small oval shaped window. He saw the sun setting. Already Dextrox wondered but his internal clock knew that it was just him thinking that time went so slowly. He walked to his bed and reflected on his day and then fell asleep quickly after. Another day in a flash, Dextrox thought, in a flash.


Hi all! This was probably my longest chapter yet! (I actually know it is...) 1,711 words of story and a few extra words for this note. I will be trying to make new chapters. I love praise. Its good. But I need some constructive criticism. It should be constructive please. I will be busy playing Metroid! Though I have to find Metroid Prime Trilogy first... I'll tell you how it will go soon! Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is completed 99.99%. I only need to scan the Leviathan Infant. Then I completed the game! Wish me luck!
