No One's POV

The quartet stared at the scene below them. None of them could believe he was already here. Brady, being the only one who was slightly expecting an attack so soon, was the first to move. He quickly unsheathed his sword.

"We need to ready the forces, now." Brady spoke in a deathly quiet tone, but the meaning in his words was clear: We must fight. Mikayla, understanding Brady's tone, unsheathed her machete as well.

"Boomer, Boz, you two need to find your swords, and when the fight starts, you need to stick together and don't wander off. If it helps, try and stay near my dad, Brady, or me. We can help you two since you haven't finished your training yet." The two boy kings nodded, both of them terrified at the thought of fighting in a war with the dark side.

With a small wave of his hand, Brady signaled the group to follow him where they rushed to the armory. Once there, Brady and Mikayla quickly found Boomer and Boz's armor before helping them slide it on. Both of the kings had on black chest plates, which had the Kinkowian Swirl on the center of it, the swirl in gold, allowing it to stand out from the rest of the armor, as well as a black sheath for their swords that tied around their waists. Once this was finished Mikayla found her armor that she was given since she was a head guard for times like this. Brady however, did not have any armor, the only clothes he was wearing being black jeans, a black shirt, and his black jacket. This worried Mikayla and his brothers.

"Brady, are you sure that you will be ok with what you have on? I mean, we can find you some sort of armor, or something, or maybe even-" Mikayla began rambling different things, only stopping when Brady covered her mouth with his hand. "I'll be fine. I can take care of myself. Now, let's go rally the troops." Mikayla nodded, even though she still wished Brady would put some type of armor on, even if it was small, it was better than not having any protection at all.

Brady led the way as the quartet left the armory and rushed to the throne room, where they found Mason ordering the guards around. He was directing the men to their stations from which they would attack from. "Mason, are the guards surrounding the whole castle?" Brady questioned the Royal Advisor, interrupting his directions. Mason looked down at the boy king. "Yes my king, the guards are around the entire castle." Brady nodded, his entire body suddenly tensing up as a call was heard from outside the castle. "King Brady, won't you come out of the castle so we can fight?"

All heads turned towards Brady as he stared at the castle doors before he took a step towards them, determination to beat the evil king beginning to take over his mind. "Brady, don't go yet. He will kill you if you do." Boomer and Boz each grabbed one of Brady's arms, but this didn't stop him. "I have to beat him. I have to save the island." Brady mumbled quietly, but everyone heard what he said.

"No you don't Brady. At least wait for the rest of us." Mikayla pleaded with the boy as she came to stand in front of him, stopping Brady from walking further. "She's right my king. The troops are almost ready." Mason tried next. Brady sighed, his friends and family convincing him to stay in the castle for now, but he was only doing it for them. If it was up to him, he would already be fighting. He wanted to rid the island of the threat that hung over it, and he wanted to keep everyone safe. While he knew that not everyone would make it out ok, he still wanted to do the best he could to save everyone that he could.

"My Kings, we found him." Everyone in the room turned around to see two of the guards holding Ezio's hands behind his back. "You traitor." Brady growled as he stalked towards Ezio, said man cowering back slightly as Brady towered over him, the anger showing in his movements and voice. "We trusted you, and yet you were working for the enemy the entire time." Ezio nodded, not saying anything.

"Guards, take him to the dungeon, and make sure he's locked up. We can deal with his treachery after the battle." Brady ordered the guards, his disgust for Ezio evident in his voice. The guards nodded before hurrying off with the traitor, not wanting to anger the king anymore.

"Mason, are all of the troops ready?" Brady turned from where he was standing to look at the Royal Advisor. Mason nodded before Brady signaled the guards that had assembled in the throne room to prepare to attack. He then shifted his gaze to his friends and family, taking in each of their expressions. Boomer and Boz were both scared, but determined as well. They both knew that they had to conquer their fears to help save Kinkow, and they were going to do it. Mason looked determined, as well as fearless, but Brady knew that on the inside the man-squatch was scared for everyone as well. Finally, his gaze landed on his love, Mikayla. She met his gaze, her eyes telling him everything he needed to know: She was scared as well, but wasn't going to show it. She was acting like the fearless warrior she always was. This however gave Brady more strength and courage. He was going to fight for not only himself and the island, but for his friends, family, and his love. He would make sure that they all made it out alive, even if he didn't.

As Brady finished scanning everyone's expressions, a loud thud was heard against the castle doors. "Brace yourselves." Brady commanded everyone as the thud came again. Suddenly, the castle doors flew open, and full on chaos broke loose. All of the Tarantula People who had been in the plaza came rushing into the castle, thousands of them charging towards the defense line as they screamed their war cry. The guards let loose a war cry of their own before charging into battle against the Tarantula People.

The sound of swords clashing together rang through the throne room as guard met Tarantula warrior, and the two began fighting to the death. Mason was met with a strong, particularly nasty looking Tarantula Person whom he took down in a matter of seconds. Boomer, Boz, and Mikayla took on two buff Tarantula People, Mikayla fighting one by herself while the two Kings fought the other together. Brady however, knew who he was looking for, and began fighting his way through the army, fighting off all of the Tarantula People who were attacking him from all sides.

Brady sliced one warrior's hand off, as well as giving another a long cut from his thigh to almost his ankle, causing the two Tarantula Warriors to cry out in pain as their clothes and the ground began turning red. While the Tarantula People were good fighters, they had never seen the fight style Brady used. They were used to fighting against the guards, whom all used the fighting techniques learned in Fight School, not the city style type of fighting Brady was using. This caused most of their attacks and parries to be rendered useless since they were made to block Fight School moves. This gave Brady an advantage against the Tarantula People. However, his different fighting techniques could be considered a disadvantage as well since he couldn't really help any of the guards because of fear he would accidentally hurt them as well.

Where is he? Did the coward not even stick around to fight his own battle? Brady's thoughts were racing as he tried to find his number one target through the mass of Tarantula People. Where is the coward?

Meanwhile, with Mikayla and the two brothers, the trio was standing in a triangle, back to back as they fought off Tarantula People from all sides. Boz and Boomer were still working together, and with their combined fight school techniques they could defeat any Tarantula Warrior that came their way. However, they also used some of the techniques Brady had taught them, allowing the two to be able to defeat the Tarantula People even faster. Mikayla however only knew the Fight School techniques, but from her years of practice and training she had been able to create some skills of her own, which she used in place of any skills that Brady hadn't had time to teach her.

Mason head teamed up with some of the guards, together the group was plowing through the Tarantula People the best they could. Each of the guards were using their family swords, which were all beginning to stain red. "Keep fighting men!" Mason yelled over the screams and shouts that filled the area.

Even though he had made his way into the plaza, Brady still heard Mason's shout of encouragement. This helped to renew the strength in the slightly tired King as he fought off warrior after warrior. He still couldn't find the one who had started this war in the first place, the one who had taunted Brady, the one who had threatened his friends and family, the one Brady was going to make sure would pay for his actions.

Brady continued battling his way through the army as more Tarantula People came pouring in before he was forced back into the throne room, all of his progress lost. As he was pushed back by the incoming wave he was forced into a back to back position with Mikayla. Said girl spun around to see who had run into her, only stopping her sword right next to Brady's neck. "We're on the same side Makoola." Brady slightly teased the Head Guard before both of the took on a giant Tarantula Person together. Mikayla quickly swept the warrior's feet from under him, causing him to fall to the ground before Brady drove his sword through the warrior's heart.

As Brady turned to fight off the next warrior he heard his brothers scream. "Brady, Mikayla, Mason, help!" On instinct Brady fought his way through the army as fast as he could, desperate to save his brothers from whatever had trapped them. He quickly reached Boomer and Boz, finding the two trapped against a wall with four Tarantula Warriors towering over them.

"Leave them alone." Brady growled as he stepped towards the four warriors, gaining their attention. The four warriors quickly turned around, the two Kings quickly forgotten as the new challenge appeared. Brady raised his red-stained sword before charging forward and attacking the warriors, taking on all four at once. Brady took down one of the warriors quickly with a blow to the head, killing the warrior instantly. The other three quickly surrounded Brady. Just as Brady raised his sword to take them down, the three warriors fell to the ground, dead, and in their places were a few guards. However, these weren't Kinkow guards, these were Lanada guards, Brady's guards. Lanny stood in front of the group while Tate stood smiling next to some of the other guards, Indigo beside him. The two lovebirds waved to Brady before taking off into the battle, side by side. Brady smiled at the other guards who were standing there before signaling them to join the fight. They all did so quickly, Lanny staying by Brady's side.

"I figured you could use some back up." Lanny spoke as he and Brady fought off a Tarantula warrior together. "Thanks buddy, we need all of the help we can get." Brady replied as the duo struck down another warrior. The two both raised up their weapons to attack again, but were interrupted by a loud whistle, which caused the Tarantula People to stop fighting and just stand still. Brady and Lanny both looked around, trying to figure out why the fighting had stopped. As if by magic, all off the Tarantula warriors backed up onto one side of the throne room, allowing the guards to move to the other side and regroup, leaving Brady, Mason, Lanny, Boomer, Boz, and Mikayla all standing in the middle. It only took them a few seconds to figure out what was happening before King Blackfire appeared in front of the lines of Tarantula People. He smirked evilly. "Now who's ready to let the real battle begin?"
