"Captain" Said David."Yes, I can see them" Said the captain.
David and the captain saw, at the distance, at least twenty pairs of eyes looking at them.
"Those are… wolves?" Asked David.
"They are too big for being normal wolves, although, I heard that Wasteland Valley had wolves as protectors of their land" Said the captain.
"Since when did wolves become such docile creatures that they can become guardians" Asked other soldier behind David.
"Anyway, there are only a few of them, just be careful and they won"t be a treat" Said the captain.
Everyone nodded while they moved forward.
However, not long after they moved, they saw a human figure standing in front of them.
At the side of the figure, two wolves were standing.
"Halt!" Shouted the figure.
David and the captain were stunned, along with everyone else, after all…
The owner of the voice was a mere slim young man who was obviously still a kid.
"What is a kid doing here?" Said David.
"Who are you calling a kid?" Said the young man.
"My name is Dionisius, and I am the current lord of Wasteland Valley while lord Alfonso Lockheart is out, I won"t ask for your intentions coming here because they are pretty obvious, however, nor I nor my people want to see bloodshed, so here is my propose, go back, tell your lord that whatever problem he has with us, we can slowly talked it and reach an impa.s.se" Said Dionisius.
After hearing Dionisius talk…
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
All the enemy soldiers laughed their a.s.ses off.
"Alfonso Lockheart sure is a genius as everyone says he is, leaving a child in charge on his town, hahahahaha" The man behind David was laughing hard.
Even the captain wanted to laugh as well.
For David however, something was off.
"This kid has such a poker face against three thousand enemies… something is not right" Though David.
Dionisius looked at the laughing faces of the army in front of him.
He made a small smile and his eyes turned red.
David notice this change on Dionisius"s face.
His face became pale.
"NOT GOOD!" He shouted.
Dionisius lifted his arm.
"EVERYONE, BACK UP!" Shouted David.
The wolf"s eyes also turned crimson red.
"HE IS A CHAMPION!"
As the sound of David"s voice, a huge phoenix appeared in the skies and descended towards the army!
"EVADE!" Someone shouted from behind.
The Phoenix opened its beak and engulfed a part of the army, who let agonizing shouts.
"IT BURNS, IT BURNS!"
The shouts of agony scared the remained soldiers who run all over the place to evade the phoenix.
"DON"T BREAK THE FORMATION, DON"T BREAK THE FORMATION!" Shouted the captain.
David looked back at Dionisius who still had that smile that, for David, it looked like the smile of evil itself!
Dionisius mounted one wolf and ran from the scene.
"SPARTANS, ROMANS!" He shouted.
"DON"T LET THEM REGROUP!"
"FIRE!"
From the hills of the snowy terrain, Spartans, and Romans soldiers pointed their bows at the enemies.
Deferio and Cease were looking at the scene.
"Ready?" Said Deferio.
"Always" Said Cease.
Then, both of them, shouted
"ROMANS/SPARTANS"
"FIRE!"
""YES SIR!""
From left and right, a volley of arrows fell to the three thousand men army.
"NO!" Shouted David.
He ran towards the captain and lifted his s.h.i.+eld.
"PROTECT THOSE WHO ARE NEAR YOU! MAKE A BARRIER!" Shouted the captain.
*PAM*
*PAM*
*PAM*
"AHHHHH!"
"HELP!"
"NO! HELP ME!"
The arrows penetrated the flesh of the soldiers who didn"t manage to raise their s.h.i.+eld.
"SECOND GROUP!" Shouted Deferio and Cease.
Like machines, the soldiers changed and another group of soldiers, fully load, aimed at the soldiers below.
*Bzzzt*
*Bzzzt*
The arrows flow at high speed and the remained soldiers did everything in their power to rest the attack.
"How was it?"
From behind, Dionisius arrived were Deferio and Cease were standing.
"Better than expected, we killed, at least, one thousand men" Said Deferio.
"Still, there are, more or less, two thousand men alive" Said Cease.
"The plan was a success, let"s. .h.i.t while the iron is still hot" Said Dionisius.
"So is our turn now?" A voice came from the right side.
Dionisius turned and saw Hephaestus with a group of thirty-something women behind.
"Amazons, how is it? Are you ready?" Asked Dionisius.
"To protect the home that we fight so hard to find"
The Amazons lift their spears.
"We will do anything to protect it!"
Dionisius smiled and looked back at his soldiers.
"MEN! TONIGHT! YOU ALL OWN ME AND WASTELAND VALLEY!" Shouted Dionisius.
"WE ARE EIGHT HUNDRED"
"SO, EACH OF YOU OWN ME TWO HEADS!"
"I WANT THOSE HEADS ON MY TABLE BY THE END OF THIS DAY!" Shouted Dionisius.
"YES, SIR!" Shouted all the soldiers.
"But my lord, what about the remaining four hundred?" Asked Deferio.
Dionisius didn"t answer and looked at Hephaestus.
"How long has it been?" Asked Dionisius.
"I think the last time was the Trojan war" Said Hephaestus.
"What do you say, old man? The one who gets two hundred and one wins?" Said Dionisius.
"I want all the liquor in your store" Said Hephaestus.
"And I want a weapon made of all the minerals that you found in these past months" Said Dionisius.
Both of them looked at each other and laughed.
"IT"S TIME!"
Dionisius mounted his wolf while Hephaestus grabbed his lance.
"GO!"
At the sound of Dionisius shout, everyone descended the hill!
"CAPTAIN, THEY ARE COMING!" Shouted David.
"Those f.u.c.kers killed almost half of my army!"
"UNFORGIVABLE!"
"SOLDIERS!"
"I DON"T WANT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM ALIVE!"
"KILL THEM!" Shouted the captain.
Like a shoot of adrenaline, the soldiers reincorporate to the battle.
They graved their weapons and, like angry beasts, they run towards the soldiers of Wasteland Valley.
"KILL!" Shouted David.
"KILL!" Answered the soldiers back.
The tow armies run towards each other!
"Little kid, your head is mine!" Shouted the captain.
"You took out the words of my mouth, old man!" Shouted Dionisius.
And so, both armies collide with each other
The battle has began!
