Chapter 3
Battle of Kilak
I ran down the path, excited to get to the arena and finally see my family again. I turned around and saw the others try to keep up. Then Flarebolt appeared in front of me. I knocked him over and we rolled into the grass laughing. Shadow, Carollyn, and Jinjaninja caught up soon after, laughing with us.
I stood up and wiped the dirt off me, still laughing. "Ok, lets get going." I said catching my breathe. Then I stood up straight and continued walking down the path. It was a long, but pleasant journey. As we walked up the final hill leading to the city gates I saw Kilak's castle.
As we walked up to the gates I saw guards everywhere, including around Kilak's castle. "State your business in Arenascape." One of the guards said. "I wish to participate in the arena battles and so would my friend Xavier." Said Jinjaninja to all our surprise. The gates opened and we walked inside the incredible city.
"So, Jinjaninja, you want to enter as well?" I asked. "Yes, it has always been my dream to enter, but if I have to face you I think I will lose."
"Well, I guess you would." I said with a grin on my face. "Oh, Xavier, the last fight is to the death, just thought you should know." "Okay" I said a bit shaken.
I saw market stalls on every side of me. Multiple people buying weapons, armor, ore, etc, everywhere. I walked up to one and looked at what they had to sell. It turned out to be a shield shop. "Just what I need." I thought to myself. Then I remembered I only had 300 gold peices...
I decided to borrow some money, but when I turned around all my companions were at different stalls already. Jinjaninja was looking at some battle axes. Carollyn was trying on some different jewelry, and Flarebolt buying a few death runes. Our new friend Shadow was at a robe shop. I asked how much an addy kite shield would cost, 10000 gold peices.
Then the shop keeper saw my sword and said he would give me the shield if he could hold it. So I held out my sword and he sat the kite shield on the stand. He grabbed the Dragon Sword and tried to run. "Tsk tsk tsk, youre not thinking." I said to him.
I turned into my transformation state then realized I didnt need to. I went back to normal and held out my hand. The sword flew out of his hands and into mine. I saw the shop keeper run in fear as I pulled out Rowen's bow, a little gift I brought along. I took aim and hit him in the leg, not enough to kill him but to teach him a lesson.
I picked up the shield and threw it over my back. I turned around and saw Carollyn showing off her new ring to Jinjaninja now wielding, a runite battle axe! "J, how did you get that!?" I said excitedly. "Ive been saving, and I still have 76k." He said smiling. My jaw dropped when I heard that. I had to admit I was a bit jealous.
Then Shadow walked up wearing a new black priest robe, making him look more handsome. Followed by Flarebolt with 10 new death runes and a new staff. "Well you are all just rich!" I yelled.
"Hehehe." Carollyn and Flarebolt mumbled. Lets do some exploring before we sign up for the tournament, we got one whole day to explore and relax.
"I think I will visit the Wizards Guild." Said Flarebolt pulling out his newly acquired runes. I will be off to the warrior center, Jinjaninja care to join me?" I asked. "Sure." "And I think I will be off to the church, to bow to our god." said Shadow. "Im going everywhere!" Carollyn said excitedly, then ran down the street. We all began laughing and went off to our own areas.
-------------------------------------------Flarebolt's Day-------------------------------------------
I was off to the Wizard Guild. I had to ask for some directions first. When I did find it I was amazed, it was huge and had symbols of every rune painted on the side. I approached the guard, and he said, "If you wish to enter you must be able to cast a fire blast." Then he tossed me a death rune and a few fire runes.
I said the chant for the attack, and a fire blast shot out at the door. It opened up and revealed the Wizard Guild. I stepped inside and saw all kinds of pictures of the great wizards. Books were piled up in the corner containing nearly every spell known to mankind. I opened one up and began to read.
It was a Fire Twister spell and the chant was very confusing. I saw a target in the corner and used the spell, I failed the first four times then got it correct. I held my hands together and a swirling blast of swirling fire flew out of my hands and hit the target. I felt my body surrounded by a green aura, I increased a magic level and memorized the spell.
I walked upstairs and saw... Oh my god! My twin brother, Hydrobolt!
"Brother, is that really you!?" I yelled.
"Yes, it is I, Flarebolt. But I do not wish to see you." he said a chant and teleported away. "Brother, why must you be like that?" I thought. I found a case with the four types of staffs, but they were not normal staves, they were battle staves!
I touched the case and admired their greatness. I went back downstairs and asked if the battlestaffs were for sale. "Yes," said the guild master,"70k each. So I pulled out all my money, 67k. So I offered my staff along with it and he accepted. I walked back upstairs and picked out a battlestaff of air. It was much better than an ordinary staff, because it could also be used as a weapon.
I went downstairs to the training zone and saw some goblins in cages. I shot a wind bolt at one and it dissolved to the other world. I shot a fire bolt at a hobgoblin, but it lived so I used a fire twister to kill it. After a good 30 minutes they were all dead, then they magically reappeared. I was done for the day though and walked through a door down in the basement, with a sign reading underground tunnel.
I walked for a little while, torches along the walls. Then I saw a ladder leading up, I started to climb up the ladder and pushed up a trap door. I saw daylight and ended up in the arena zone. I wondered how I got there but thought oh well and went to sign up. I looked on the list and saw Hydrobolt.
I knew I had to enter now, but my brother was opposite of me. His special move is the Hydrobolt blast, which I taught him. It is just as strong as Flarebolt blast except water element. I decided to go back to the inn and get some rest before the competition tomorrow. Xavier had paid for our room so I went upstairs. I wonder how he paid for it, because he kept whining about us being rich...
I saw Jinjaninja and Xavier fast asleep in their beds. I decided to lay down too. I saw a rune two-handed sword laying next to Jinjaninja. "Already got a new weapon..." I said laughing. I laid down on bed and instantly fell asleep.
-------------------------------------------Xavier and Jinjaninja's Day-------------------------------------------
I began walking towards the Warrior Center with Jinjaninja. I saw a huge building with guards everywhere. "Wow, talk about safety precautions." Jinjaninja said. "Yeah, I think they went a little overboard." I replied. "Before you can enter you must pass our test, to test if you are truly a warrior of might." One of the guards said. "You must split a piece of magic wood in half with your sword, and then throw a knife at the center of a target."
I went up to a stand and saw a glowing piece of wood. "You get three tries." The guard said. I lifted the Dragon Sword above my head and swung at the log. I only got about half way through. I jumped up and swung again, my sword went all the way through.
Then Jinjaninja tried, he took a new stance and yelled, "Slash Drop!" He flew into the air and did a back flip. He held out the axe and split the log in half and dug his axe into the ground. "Nice swing, J."
"Yes, but I prefer two handed swords." The guards let us pass and we went to the knives.
I picked up my three knives , took aim, and threw the first one. I barely missed, I threw the second one and missed again. Then I threw the third one and hit the center of the target. The guards let me by and I walked in, waiting for Jinjaninja.
Jinjaninja took three knives and then asked, "Can I use my own knife?"
"Alright, I dont see why not." Jinjaninja pulled three rune daggers out of his chain mail and threw the first one. It hit the very center, then he threw the second. It stuck into the handle on the first. Then he threw the last one and hit the second one, they all flew through the target and hit the wall of the building.
The guards were astounded, one said, "That was great, please trade me youre rune battle axe for my rune two handed sword!" He was holding out a rune two hander! Jinjaninja took the sword and handed the guard his axe. "Thanks bud." Then he walked inside next to me. "Dang, what was...what was that?" I stuttered." I am an expert knife thrower, and now I finally got a rune two hander."
I sat down on very comfortable couch, then Jinjaninja sat down too.
"So, what do we do here?" asked Jinjaninja.
"Uh...I dont know, Ive never been here." Jinjaninja began to laugh, "Well, we better find something to do then." We walked through a door, the agility room. I saw a button on the wall that was labeled start.
I pressed the button and arrows began to shoot out of the wall. "I guess we dodge the arrows to improve our reflexes and speed." I said to Jinjaninja who was dodging an arrow. I got on the floor just as an arrow flew by. I had to jump up though. I continued jumping and dodging for a few minutes then the arrows stopped.
I bent over and put my hands on my knees, trying to catch my breath. Then I heard an arrow hit the wall. They were coming twice as fast this time. I got hit in the leg, I heard Jinjaninja scream in pain. "Pick up the speed!" I yelled transforming. I flew to the roof and pulled out the arrow. I dove to the floor twisting to dodge the arrows.
"This seems a little dangerous for training!" Jinjaninja yelled. I pressed my sword against a hole firing arrows. The arrows shoved my sword back though. I flipped off the wall and grabbed an arrow in mid-air flight. I pulled out Rease's bow and shot the arrow into one of the holes. I heard an odd sound and the arrows stopped.
I looked at Jinjaninja, he was pulling out arrows. He had two in his leg and one in his arm. They had penetrated his armor. I saw the door open and I ran out of the room. I went through a door with a sign reading healing area. As soon as I walked in I started to feel relieved. There was some kind of healing chemical in the air.
After a few minutes I left the room, all my wounds were gone. Jinjaninja went inside soon after. When he got out we went into a room with no sign. I saw training dummies and hit one. It sent a shock through my hand. I hit it again and another shock. "What are these?" asked Jinjaninja. I guess its supposed to be like armour on an opponent.
I began punching and kicking the dummy. It may have hurt me, but all fights hurt. Jinjaninja was going all out on the dummy. He was punching and kicking as fast as he could.
"It doesnt hurt if you move fast." he said. So I began hitting the dummy at full speed and felt no pain. I began to feel tired but kept on swinging as fast as my I could make my arms go.
Soon I began using only my feet. I transformed and began kicking in mid-air. I couldnt go as fast with my feet so I got a little sore and stopped.
"Im wiped out." I said to Jinjaninja. "Me too." he said catching his breath. My knuckles were bleeding as were Jinjaninjas. My feet were bruised very badly, so I left the room.
I went back to the healing area and my wounds healed. "Im still tired." I said yawning. We walked slowly to the arena and signed up. Then went to an inn, we got a room and went upstairs. I laid down on a bed and felt relief from its softness. I almost fell asleep instantly.
-------------------------------------------Carollyn's Day-------------------------------------------
I ran off for the clothes store, but got a little lost. I ended up in a weird shop. They had all kinds of wierd stuff like skulls and eyes. Then I realized it was the herbal shop. I turned around and tried to leave, but my path was blocked by two knights with the sign of Kilak on their armor.
I tried to find another way out but soon more knights closed in on me.
"Lord Kilak has demanded your capture, peasant!" A knight said angrily. He shoved me to the floor and I tried to crawl away. A knight grabbed me and tied me up. I tried to get out of the ropes but all I managed to do was rip a knight's cape and lose my bracelet.
I couldnt move in the ropes so I just waited. It was hard to breath so I didnt attempt to talk. They had me blindfolded but I knew I was being carried to Kilak's Castle. When I was untied I found myself in a prison. The door was locked five different ways. I sat down in the corner and fell asleep.
When I awoke I had a bowl of disgusting looking food in front of me. I took a swallow and almost threw it back up, but it was all I had to eat. So after I finished the sickest meal of my life a guard walked in. "You shall be killed tomorrow at sundown, for youre betrayal to Lord Kilak." He said pointing his sword at me.
When he turned around I grabbed his leg and tripped him. I reached for his keys but he pulled out a dagger and stabbed me in the side of my stomach. I screamed and pulled out the dagger. The guard stood up and kicked me. He slammed the door and locked it when he left.
The blood was making my shirt turn red. I grabbed the cut and tried to stop the pain. I began to cry thinking I would die.
"Someone please get me out of here!" I yelled. I looked for a window, still clutching the painful cut. I found no windows or signs of any way out, so I just laid on floor, waiting for them to come kill me.
-------------------------------------------Shadow's Day-------------------------------------------
I was off to the church, I always pray to our great lord, Onithoray. I found my way to the church fine. It was small compared to the one on Entara. I walked inside the building, and saw people scattered about. A priest was healing a wounded man. I saw a statue of Onithoray about the same size as Entara's. It had an altar on each side.
I walked up to the statue and altars and felt empowered. A blue light spread around me and I felt my prayer restored. I walked up to the priest.
"Praise to Onithoray." He said. "Yes, now can I ask you where the craft.......Wow!" I said as I saw the church bell. It was completely covered in diamonds and dragonstones, the most amazing thing I had ever seen. Even greater than Entara's!
"That bell is incredible, I have never seen anything like that!" I said.
"Yes, we are very proud of our bell, it pleases Onithoray to have such greatness in our holy church."
"Oh, can you tell me where the craft hall is?" I asked. "Yes, it is west of here, walk past the mace shop and its the next building on the right."
I left the church and looked at the sun. I saw its position and went west. I saw a poor man begging for money so I gave him enough for some food. "May Onithoray be with you, kind sir. This will be enough for my family for a whole 3 days." He said smiling. It felt good to help the poor man, I felt lucky to have such good friends.
I saw a mace store and walked past it. I looked to my right and saw a huge sign reading 'The Craft Hall'. I walked inside and the leader asked me who I was.
"I am Shadow Thunder, the craftsmen monk of Entara." They handed me a chisel and a sapphire. "Show us your skills, and cut this gem.
I sat down in at a table and very carefully I cut the sapphire into the shape of a sword. He did not expect me to cut it into a sword. "Wow, fantastic. You may pass. He handed me the sapphire back and I entered the Craft Hall. I found a shop and asked what they had for sale.
The man took out a list of their inventory. "I will take five gold nuggets, one chisel, and a ball of wool." I said. "That will be 351 gold peices." said the man.
"Thank you, come again soon." I walked through another door, a furnace. I put on the gloves available to me and placed the gold in the furnace. I took reached inside and grabbed the new bar of gold.
I repeated the process with all of the gold nuggets. Then I went back out to the main hall and sat down to begin my new amulet. I carefully cut the amulet into a circular shape. I made sure to leave a hole for the string. I cut out a sword shape a little bigger than my sapphire sword. I placed the sapphire inside and returned to the furnace.
I placed my amulet inside with a bit of extra gold. When I removed it the sapphire was trapped inside. I strung the amulet and put it on. It seemed to glimmer in the light. I pulled out a spare cosmic rune and used an enchantment to make the amulet a holy sapphire amulet of prayer. I was satisfied and left the hall.
I headed back to the hotel, it was dark and the streets seemed silent. I entered the square which was still lit up with torches with plenty of trades going on. I walked into the hotel and purchased a night in the room upstairs. I saw Flarebolt, Jinjaninja, and Xavier, but Carollyn was not back. I think she is still shopping or something, but may Onithoray be with her if anything happens.
-------------------------------------------Xavier's POV-------------------------------------------
I was the first awake that morning, I looked around and saw my friends. Then I realized Carollyn was gone. I sat up instantly. I went downstairs and asked if someone named Carollyn signed in. The man said no so I ran back upstairs. "Guys, Carollyn is gone!"
"I didnt see her after we all split up yesterday." said Flarebolt.
"Me either." said Shadow. "Maybe she went to another hotel." Flarebolt sugested. "Maybe, but Im not sure......The competition!" I yelled looking out the window. It should start any minute, lets go.
We all ran down the stairs and out the front door. "Guys, by the way, I entered too." Said Flarebolt. I began to weave through all the people in the town square. I began to see the huge dome of the arena. I never stopped until I got there. I bent over to catch my breath and the others showed up soon after.
We signed in just in time. Jinjaninja was the first to fight against an archer named Zeo. He entered the arena still tired from running. Zeo pulled out his bow and placed an arrow on it. He pulled back the string. Jinjaninja held out his new two handed sword.
Zeo let go of the string. The arrow twirled through the air right at Jinjaninja. It was at the speed of light. I heard the arrow hit metal and when I looked up Jinjaninja was fine. He ran toward Zeo with his sword in front of him. Zeo was firing arrows like a machine gun, almost as good as Rowen. Jinjaninja was blocking and dodging them all though.
He got right if front of Zeo and swung. Zeo put up his shield and the metal clashed. Jinjaninja jumped into the air. "Sword Throw!" He yelled and tossed his sword down toward Zeo, but he flipped backwards as the sword hit the ground. Jinjaninja landed on the handle! He jumped at Zeo ready to kick. Zeo drew his bow and shot. Jinjaninja caught the arrow in his hands and fell to the ground.
Zeo pulled out two rune short swords and threw his shield over his back. He began stabbing wildly at Jinjaninja who was on the ground. Jinjaninja started to roll and dodge the swords, but Zeo drew his bow again. Jinjaninja jumped to his feet and ran. He pulled his sword out of the ground as Zeo released the bow string.
Jinjaninja jumped to the side at the last second. Jinjaninja jumped at Seraph and kicked him in the face. Zeo staggered backward and regained stability. Jinjaninja grabbed his bow and busted it in half. Zeo stabbed Jinjaninja with both of his swords.
"Ahhh!" screamed Jinjaninja and fell to the floor. Zeo walked over him and pulled out a adamantite sword.
Jinjaninja was faking though, he swung around and hit Zeo in the side. Zeo fell to the floor and began to gasp. Jinjaninja kicked him in the face and he passed out. Jinjaninja won his first match!
"The winner of the battle, Mr. Jinjaninja X verus Mr. Zeo Ralse is, Mr. Jinjaninja X!"
"The heck? Zeo RALSE?! But...but...it cant be..." I thought to myself. I saw medics run to Jinjaninja and carried him off the arena floor. Instantly I forgot about Zeo. I ran to see if J was alright. It turned out he was just fine.
The next battle was tomorrow so I decided to look for Carollyn with Shadow and Flarebolt. We went into multiple stores that Carollyn would like asking if they had seen her, no one had. Then we entered the herbal shop. I asked the owner if he had seen her and he said no. "Come here." Flarebolt said. I walked over to him and he had a bracelet, Carollyn's. Then saw a piece of cape, and on it was a letter, K. It must be a evil symbol of Kilak the tyrant.
"Shadow, we are leaving!" I yelled.
"Okay." We walked to the castle, it was bigger than the arena dome. "We, cant take the drawbridge, they have it up, so how will we get across considering the release lever is over there?" Asked Shadow. Flarebolt disappeared and reappeared next to the lever. Flarebolt began to laugh and kicked the lever.
The drawbridge lowered down slowly and we ran across. "We cant just knock on the front door." said Shadow.
"I can handle that one," I said, "Give me your swords." They all handed me their swords. I transformed, then realized something. "Here, we dont need these." I said handing them their swords back. I picked up Shadow and flew up to a window. Flarebolt had teleported inside already.
"Why don't you just teleport to Carollyn?" I asked Flarebolt. "I can only teleport to things I can see." He replied. "Ok, I can produce a small invisibility prayer. It will not last for more than three minutes though." said Shadow. My vision got kind of blurry and we were invisible. I turned and looked at a mirror on the wall. I was looking straight at it but nothing was there. "Good job." I said and took off down the corridor.
I peered around the corner and saw two guards. They were both wearing iron armor, easy to defeat. I ran out unseen and when they werent facing each other. I killed one of them with a quick jab in the neck... I jumped over and killed the other with a stab in the side of his chest. They both fell to the ground dead and we continued to be unseen.
I jumped to the wall and dug my claws in. I went up to the ceiling and starting crawling across it. I didnt know where Flarebolt and Shadow were until I heard the scream of a guard. I kept on my path though, still hanging on the ceiling. I found two more guards by a downward staircase. I dropped to the floor and drew my bow. I fired an arrow and stabbed the other.
I grabbed a few items from them, two short swords, a few more arrows, and a healing potion. I walked down the staircase then I noticed something in the corner of my eye, it was my arm. I saw a guard and quickly flew to the ceiling. The guard walked by, but I stayed in the air. I went down a little further and heard an alarm horn.
I knew Flarebolt and Shadow had been seen. All the guards around me ran towards the stairs. I pulled out my bow and shot one. The guards all turned around and looked for me. I shot another one in the chest and they saw me. The guards had no way to reach me, too bad some had bows. Five arrows shot toward me at once.
I tried to dodge them all but one hit my right wing. The arrow was jammed into the ceiling and I couldn't reach over far enough to pull it out. I pulled out my shield and blocked the raining fleet of arrows. I got an idea of how to get down, but it was dangerous. I had to try it anyway, so I turned back to my original form and began to fall. I transformed again and dove after the guards.
There was only about fifteen so I just sliced away with the dragon sword. The guards were almost all gone then ten or more appeared.
"I hope I remember how to do this." I mumbled. "Shockwave Power Blast!" I shoved my sword into the ground and a huge shockwave emerged. It was four times as big as when I used it on Tride because I was so much more powerful.
The shockwave froze the guards in place, then with in a huge inferno they flew into the walls. I actually had to dodge the flying guards. Some even hit the ceiling, but not one guard survived. I pulled my sword out of the ground and caught my breath. I took the top of the potion vial and drank it. The Shockwave Power Blast takes a lot of energy out of me.
I heard some footsteps so I flew to the ceiling and drew my bow. I placed an arrow on it and pulled back the string. Then Flarebolt and Shadow came running out of the doorway, followed by a large group of guards, and at the back of the group was Kilak. I shot the arrow at Kilak, but without even looking, he blocked it.
Kilak twisted his head and stared at me, and in his hand was...a dragon sword with a blue handle! Mine was red but they were exactly the same besides that. Then I thought for a moment, does that mean he can......
The floor around Kilak was covered in water. It started to rise in a perfect cylinder around him. He grew wings, claws, tail, and fangs, just like me. I could feel his power rising. After transforming he flew at me with his sword in front of him. "Uh oh!" I yelled dodging the blade. "This can't be good." I swung at him but he blocked.
Kilak spun around and kicked but I punched. I hit him in the face as he hit me in the stomach. We both flew and hit the wall. I looked down and saw Flarebolt and Shadow fighting guards. I looked back up just as the blade hit. I fell to the floor so hard that it cracked. I reached up and felt blood all over my face. He sliced me all the way down my face.
I started to feel dizzy and almost passed out. Kilak landed right in front of me and put his blade to my throat. I was ready for my life to end and the dream I had so long ago, before we entered the tunnel and met Rease, flashed by but Carollyn was not in the dream this time, and neither was I. Kilak placed his sword behind his head like I did to Trintar. He swung his sword down toward my chest and I heard the words, "Flarebolt Blast!"
A huge wave of fire hit Kilak and he flew against the wall. Then the fire turned into electricity and nearly electrocuted him to death. The move had killed all the guards. "Go find Carollyn!" I yelled standing up.. Flarebolt and Shadow took off down the hall. I wiped the blood from my face and jumped at Kilak. I shoved my sword deep into the wall right next to his head, he had dodged it at the last moment.
He tried to stab me but I jumped back. Kilak rose his sword above his head but began to stagger. I heard him gasp, and then he screamed. He screamed again and then I noticed two small blades in him. Another appeared and Kilak fell to the ground. I looked behind him and saw Jinjaninja, good as new. He threw another dagger which hit Kilak in the back again.
I grabbed Kilak by the neck and rose him up in the air. He grabbed my hands trying to make me release him but I held tight. "Where is my family, where are Lance and Rose Ralse?" I yelled. "Tell me!"
"I sold them to a man in Varrock..." He gasped. Then all of a sudden his power began to increase. An aura blasted out from his body and threw my back.
Shadow, Flarebolt, and Carollyn came back into the room. Kilak just kept powering up. "This is my final attack, and I intend to kill you with it!" A fire arose from him and dragon spirits flew out of his body in every direction. The dragon spirits flew into every corner of the room, then exploded in a huge blast. I was thrown back into the wall which busted open.
I fell outside on to the grass, followed by Flarebolt and Jinjaninja. "Carollyn and Shadow they are still inside!" I said as the building began to fall. I ran back inside searching for them, I dodged a huge falling section of the roof. "Shadow, Carollyn this way!" I said, "Follow my voice!" I flew to the hole in the wall. "Hurry!"
I jumped back as the whole castle collapsed. "No!, Shadow, Carollyn!" I yelled. Jinjaninja couldnt speak and Flarebolt just looked astonished. I went back to the rubble and began throwing sections of the building out of the way. Flarebolt and Jinjaninja soon came over to help. "We have to find them!" I said holding back tears.
I lifted up a piece of rubble and found.....Shadow and Carollyn. both of them were dead.
"Why!" I yelled to the sky. "Why, would you kill a priest, Onithoray, and a poor girl!" A huge aura blasted out of my body I felt more powerful than anything in the world. I shot a blast of energy at the rubble and found Kilak's mangled body.
I flew over to his corpse and picked up his sword. My dragon sword and his fused together some how making a new green blade. I stabbed my sword into Kilak's already dead body. "Curse you fool, they were my friends! You took my family and I was lonely my whole life and then you take my friends!" I said falling to my knees.
I just lay there and gave up. I began to feel very strange, I started to laugh and my body grew even stronger. My wings grew longer, as did my claws and tail. My eyes turned pure red, then I lost control. I took my bow and aimed it at Flarebolt. I released the string and it hit him in the shoulder. He screamed and fell to the ground..... I fell back as well, my swords split apart, and everything blacked out.
Battle of Kilak
I ran down the path, excited to get to the arena and finally see my family again. I turned around and saw the others try to keep up. Then Flarebolt appeared in front of me. I knocked him over and we rolled into the grass laughing. Shadow, Carollyn, and Jinjaninja caught up soon after, laughing with us.
I stood up and wiped the dirt off me, still laughing. "Ok, lets get going." I said catching my breathe. Then I stood up straight and continued walking down the path. It was a long, but pleasant journey. As we walked up the final hill leading to the city gates I saw Kilak's castle.
As we walked up to the gates I saw guards everywhere, including around Kilak's castle. "State your business in Arenascape." One of the guards said. "I wish to participate in the arena battles and so would my friend Xavier." Said Jinjaninja to all our surprise. The gates opened and we walked inside the incredible city.
"So, Jinjaninja, you want to enter as well?" I asked. "Yes, it has always been my dream to enter, but if I have to face you I think I will lose."
"Well, I guess you would." I said with a grin on my face. "Oh, Xavier, the last fight is to the death, just thought you should know." "Okay" I said a bit shaken.
I saw market stalls on every side of me. Multiple people buying weapons, armor, ore, etc, everywhere. I walked up to one and looked at what they had to sell. It turned out to be a shield shop. "Just what I need." I thought to myself. Then I remembered I only had 300 gold peices...
I decided to borrow some money, but when I turned around all my companions were at different stalls already. Jinjaninja was looking at some battle axes. Carollyn was trying on some different jewelry, and Flarebolt buying a few death runes. Our new friend Shadow was at a robe shop. I asked how much an addy kite shield would cost, 10000 gold peices.
Then the shop keeper saw my sword and said he would give me the shield if he could hold it. So I held out my sword and he sat the kite shield on the stand. He grabbed the Dragon Sword and tried to run. "Tsk tsk tsk, youre not thinking." I said to him.
I turned into my transformation state then realized I didnt need to. I went back to normal and held out my hand. The sword flew out of his hands and into mine. I saw the shop keeper run in fear as I pulled out Rowen's bow, a little gift I brought along. I took aim and hit him in the leg, not enough to kill him but to teach him a lesson.
I picked up the shield and threw it over my back. I turned around and saw Carollyn showing off her new ring to Jinjaninja now wielding, a runite battle axe! "J, how did you get that!?" I said excitedly. "Ive been saving, and I still have 76k." He said smiling. My jaw dropped when I heard that. I had to admit I was a bit jealous.
Then Shadow walked up wearing a new black priest robe, making him look more handsome. Followed by Flarebolt with 10 new death runes and a new staff. "Well you are all just rich!" I yelled.
"Hehehe." Carollyn and Flarebolt mumbled. Lets do some exploring before we sign up for the tournament, we got one whole day to explore and relax.
"I think I will visit the Wizards Guild." Said Flarebolt pulling out his newly acquired runes. I will be off to the warrior center, Jinjaninja care to join me?" I asked. "Sure." "And I think I will be off to the church, to bow to our god." said Shadow. "Im going everywhere!" Carollyn said excitedly, then ran down the street. We all began laughing and went off to our own areas.
-------------------------------------------Flarebolt's Day-------------------------------------------
I was off to the Wizard Guild. I had to ask for some directions first. When I did find it I was amazed, it was huge and had symbols of every rune painted on the side. I approached the guard, and he said, "If you wish to enter you must be able to cast a fire blast." Then he tossed me a death rune and a few fire runes.
I said the chant for the attack, and a fire blast shot out at the door. It opened up and revealed the Wizard Guild. I stepped inside and saw all kinds of pictures of the great wizards. Books were piled up in the corner containing nearly every spell known to mankind. I opened one up and began to read.
It was a Fire Twister spell and the chant was very confusing. I saw a target in the corner and used the spell, I failed the first four times then got it correct. I held my hands together and a swirling blast of swirling fire flew out of my hands and hit the target. I felt my body surrounded by a green aura, I increased a magic level and memorized the spell.
I walked upstairs and saw... Oh my god! My twin brother, Hydrobolt!
"Brother, is that really you!?" I yelled.
"Yes, it is I, Flarebolt. But I do not wish to see you." he said a chant and teleported away. "Brother, why must you be like that?" I thought. I found a case with the four types of staffs, but they were not normal staves, they were battle staves!
I touched the case and admired their greatness. I went back downstairs and asked if the battlestaffs were for sale. "Yes," said the guild master,"70k each. So I pulled out all my money, 67k. So I offered my staff along with it and he accepted. I walked back upstairs and picked out a battlestaff of air. It was much better than an ordinary staff, because it could also be used as a weapon.
I went downstairs to the training zone and saw some goblins in cages. I shot a wind bolt at one and it dissolved to the other world. I shot a fire bolt at a hobgoblin, but it lived so I used a fire twister to kill it. After a good 30 minutes they were all dead, then they magically reappeared. I was done for the day though and walked through a door down in the basement, with a sign reading underground tunnel.
I walked for a little while, torches along the walls. Then I saw a ladder leading up, I started to climb up the ladder and pushed up a trap door. I saw daylight and ended up in the arena zone. I wondered how I got there but thought oh well and went to sign up. I looked on the list and saw Hydrobolt.
I knew I had to enter now, but my brother was opposite of me. His special move is the Hydrobolt blast, which I taught him. It is just as strong as Flarebolt blast except water element. I decided to go back to the inn and get some rest before the competition tomorrow. Xavier had paid for our room so I went upstairs. I wonder how he paid for it, because he kept whining about us being rich...
I saw Jinjaninja and Xavier fast asleep in their beds. I decided to lay down too. I saw a rune two-handed sword laying next to Jinjaninja. "Already got a new weapon..." I said laughing. I laid down on bed and instantly fell asleep.
-------------------------------------------Xavier and Jinjaninja's Day-------------------------------------------
I began walking towards the Warrior Center with Jinjaninja. I saw a huge building with guards everywhere. "Wow, talk about safety precautions." Jinjaninja said. "Yeah, I think they went a little overboard." I replied. "Before you can enter you must pass our test, to test if you are truly a warrior of might." One of the guards said. "You must split a piece of magic wood in half with your sword, and then throw a knife at the center of a target."
I went up to a stand and saw a glowing piece of wood. "You get three tries." The guard said. I lifted the Dragon Sword above my head and swung at the log. I only got about half way through. I jumped up and swung again, my sword went all the way through.
Then Jinjaninja tried, he took a new stance and yelled, "Slash Drop!" He flew into the air and did a back flip. He held out the axe and split the log in half and dug his axe into the ground. "Nice swing, J."
"Yes, but I prefer two handed swords." The guards let us pass and we went to the knives.
I picked up my three knives , took aim, and threw the first one. I barely missed, I threw the second one and missed again. Then I threw the third one and hit the center of the target. The guards let me by and I walked in, waiting for Jinjaninja.
Jinjaninja took three knives and then asked, "Can I use my own knife?"
"Alright, I dont see why not." Jinjaninja pulled three rune daggers out of his chain mail and threw the first one. It hit the very center, then he threw the second. It stuck into the handle on the first. Then he threw the last one and hit the second one, they all flew through the target and hit the wall of the building.
The guards were astounded, one said, "That was great, please trade me youre rune battle axe for my rune two handed sword!" He was holding out a rune two hander! Jinjaninja took the sword and handed the guard his axe. "Thanks bud." Then he walked inside next to me. "Dang, what was...what was that?" I stuttered." I am an expert knife thrower, and now I finally got a rune two hander."
I sat down on very comfortable couch, then Jinjaninja sat down too.
"So, what do we do here?" asked Jinjaninja.
"Uh...I dont know, Ive never been here." Jinjaninja began to laugh, "Well, we better find something to do then." We walked through a door, the agility room. I saw a button on the wall that was labeled start.
I pressed the button and arrows began to shoot out of the wall. "I guess we dodge the arrows to improve our reflexes and speed." I said to Jinjaninja who was dodging an arrow. I got on the floor just as an arrow flew by. I had to jump up though. I continued jumping and dodging for a few minutes then the arrows stopped.
I bent over and put my hands on my knees, trying to catch my breath. Then I heard an arrow hit the wall. They were coming twice as fast this time. I got hit in the leg, I heard Jinjaninja scream in pain. "Pick up the speed!" I yelled transforming. I flew to the roof and pulled out the arrow. I dove to the floor twisting to dodge the arrows.
"This seems a little dangerous for training!" Jinjaninja yelled. I pressed my sword against a hole firing arrows. The arrows shoved my sword back though. I flipped off the wall and grabbed an arrow in mid-air flight. I pulled out Rease's bow and shot the arrow into one of the holes. I heard an odd sound and the arrows stopped.
I looked at Jinjaninja, he was pulling out arrows. He had two in his leg and one in his arm. They had penetrated his armor. I saw the door open and I ran out of the room. I went through a door with a sign reading healing area. As soon as I walked in I started to feel relieved. There was some kind of healing chemical in the air.
After a few minutes I left the room, all my wounds were gone. Jinjaninja went inside soon after. When he got out we went into a room with no sign. I saw training dummies and hit one. It sent a shock through my hand. I hit it again and another shock. "What are these?" asked Jinjaninja. I guess its supposed to be like armour on an opponent.
I began punching and kicking the dummy. It may have hurt me, but all fights hurt. Jinjaninja was going all out on the dummy. He was punching and kicking as fast as he could.
"It doesnt hurt if you move fast." he said. So I began hitting the dummy at full speed and felt no pain. I began to feel tired but kept on swinging as fast as my I could make my arms go.
Soon I began using only my feet. I transformed and began kicking in mid-air. I couldnt go as fast with my feet so I got a little sore and stopped.
"Im wiped out." I said to Jinjaninja. "Me too." he said catching his breath. My knuckles were bleeding as were Jinjaninjas. My feet were bruised very badly, so I left the room.
I went back to the healing area and my wounds healed. "Im still tired." I said yawning. We walked slowly to the arena and signed up. Then went to an inn, we got a room and went upstairs. I laid down on a bed and felt relief from its softness. I almost fell asleep instantly.
-------------------------------------------Carollyn's Day-------------------------------------------
I ran off for the clothes store, but got a little lost. I ended up in a weird shop. They had all kinds of wierd stuff like skulls and eyes. Then I realized it was the herbal shop. I turned around and tried to leave, but my path was blocked by two knights with the sign of Kilak on their armor.
I tried to find another way out but soon more knights closed in on me.
"Lord Kilak has demanded your capture, peasant!" A knight said angrily. He shoved me to the floor and I tried to crawl away. A knight grabbed me and tied me up. I tried to get out of the ropes but all I managed to do was rip a knight's cape and lose my bracelet.
I couldnt move in the ropes so I just waited. It was hard to breath so I didnt attempt to talk. They had me blindfolded but I knew I was being carried to Kilak's Castle. When I was untied I found myself in a prison. The door was locked five different ways. I sat down in the corner and fell asleep.
When I awoke I had a bowl of disgusting looking food in front of me. I took a swallow and almost threw it back up, but it was all I had to eat. So after I finished the sickest meal of my life a guard walked in. "You shall be killed tomorrow at sundown, for youre betrayal to Lord Kilak." He said pointing his sword at me.
When he turned around I grabbed his leg and tripped him. I reached for his keys but he pulled out a dagger and stabbed me in the side of my stomach. I screamed and pulled out the dagger. The guard stood up and kicked me. He slammed the door and locked it when he left.
The blood was making my shirt turn red. I grabbed the cut and tried to stop the pain. I began to cry thinking I would die.
"Someone please get me out of here!" I yelled. I looked for a window, still clutching the painful cut. I found no windows or signs of any way out, so I just laid on floor, waiting for them to come kill me.
-------------------------------------------Shadow's Day-------------------------------------------
I was off to the church, I always pray to our great lord, Onithoray. I found my way to the church fine. It was small compared to the one on Entara. I walked inside the building, and saw people scattered about. A priest was healing a wounded man. I saw a statue of Onithoray about the same size as Entara's. It had an altar on each side.
I walked up to the statue and altars and felt empowered. A blue light spread around me and I felt my prayer restored. I walked up to the priest.
"Praise to Onithoray." He said. "Yes, now can I ask you where the craft.......Wow!" I said as I saw the church bell. It was completely covered in diamonds and dragonstones, the most amazing thing I had ever seen. Even greater than Entara's!
"That bell is incredible, I have never seen anything like that!" I said.
"Yes, we are very proud of our bell, it pleases Onithoray to have such greatness in our holy church."
"Oh, can you tell me where the craft hall is?" I asked. "Yes, it is west of here, walk past the mace shop and its the next building on the right."
I left the church and looked at the sun. I saw its position and went west. I saw a poor man begging for money so I gave him enough for some food. "May Onithoray be with you, kind sir. This will be enough for my family for a whole 3 days." He said smiling. It felt good to help the poor man, I felt lucky to have such good friends.
I saw a mace store and walked past it. I looked to my right and saw a huge sign reading 'The Craft Hall'. I walked inside and the leader asked me who I was.
"I am Shadow Thunder, the craftsmen monk of Entara." They handed me a chisel and a sapphire. "Show us your skills, and cut this gem.
I sat down in at a table and very carefully I cut the sapphire into the shape of a sword. He did not expect me to cut it into a sword. "Wow, fantastic. You may pass. He handed me the sapphire back and I entered the Craft Hall. I found a shop and asked what they had for sale.
The man took out a list of their inventory. "I will take five gold nuggets, one chisel, and a ball of wool." I said. "That will be 351 gold peices." said the man.
"Thank you, come again soon." I walked through another door, a furnace. I put on the gloves available to me and placed the gold in the furnace. I took reached inside and grabbed the new bar of gold.
I repeated the process with all of the gold nuggets. Then I went back out to the main hall and sat down to begin my new amulet. I carefully cut the amulet into a circular shape. I made sure to leave a hole for the string. I cut out a sword shape a little bigger than my sapphire sword. I placed the sapphire inside and returned to the furnace.
I placed my amulet inside with a bit of extra gold. When I removed it the sapphire was trapped inside. I strung the amulet and put it on. It seemed to glimmer in the light. I pulled out a spare cosmic rune and used an enchantment to make the amulet a holy sapphire amulet of prayer. I was satisfied and left the hall.
I headed back to the hotel, it was dark and the streets seemed silent. I entered the square which was still lit up with torches with plenty of trades going on. I walked into the hotel and purchased a night in the room upstairs. I saw Flarebolt, Jinjaninja, and Xavier, but Carollyn was not back. I think she is still shopping or something, but may Onithoray be with her if anything happens.
-------------------------------------------Xavier's POV-------------------------------------------
I was the first awake that morning, I looked around and saw my friends. Then I realized Carollyn was gone. I sat up instantly. I went downstairs and asked if someone named Carollyn signed in. The man said no so I ran back upstairs. "Guys, Carollyn is gone!"
"I didnt see her after we all split up yesterday." said Flarebolt.
"Me either." said Shadow. "Maybe she went to another hotel." Flarebolt sugested. "Maybe, but Im not sure......The competition!" I yelled looking out the window. It should start any minute, lets go.
We all ran down the stairs and out the front door. "Guys, by the way, I entered too." Said Flarebolt. I began to weave through all the people in the town square. I began to see the huge dome of the arena. I never stopped until I got there. I bent over to catch my breath and the others showed up soon after.
We signed in just in time. Jinjaninja was the first to fight against an archer named Zeo. He entered the arena still tired from running. Zeo pulled out his bow and placed an arrow on it. He pulled back the string. Jinjaninja held out his new two handed sword.
Zeo let go of the string. The arrow twirled through the air right at Jinjaninja. It was at the speed of light. I heard the arrow hit metal and when I looked up Jinjaninja was fine. He ran toward Zeo with his sword in front of him. Zeo was firing arrows like a machine gun, almost as good as Rowen. Jinjaninja was blocking and dodging them all though.
He got right if front of Zeo and swung. Zeo put up his shield and the metal clashed. Jinjaninja jumped into the air. "Sword Throw!" He yelled and tossed his sword down toward Zeo, but he flipped backwards as the sword hit the ground. Jinjaninja landed on the handle! He jumped at Zeo ready to kick. Zeo drew his bow and shot. Jinjaninja caught the arrow in his hands and fell to the ground.
Zeo pulled out two rune short swords and threw his shield over his back. He began stabbing wildly at Jinjaninja who was on the ground. Jinjaninja started to roll and dodge the swords, but Zeo drew his bow again. Jinjaninja jumped to his feet and ran. He pulled his sword out of the ground as Zeo released the bow string.
Jinjaninja jumped to the side at the last second. Jinjaninja jumped at Seraph and kicked him in the face. Zeo staggered backward and regained stability. Jinjaninja grabbed his bow and busted it in half. Zeo stabbed Jinjaninja with both of his swords.
"Ahhh!" screamed Jinjaninja and fell to the floor. Zeo walked over him and pulled out a adamantite sword.
Jinjaninja was faking though, he swung around and hit Zeo in the side. Zeo fell to the floor and began to gasp. Jinjaninja kicked him in the face and he passed out. Jinjaninja won his first match!
"The winner of the battle, Mr. Jinjaninja X verus Mr. Zeo Ralse is, Mr. Jinjaninja X!"
"The heck? Zeo RALSE?! But...but...it cant be..." I thought to myself. I saw medics run to Jinjaninja and carried him off the arena floor. Instantly I forgot about Zeo. I ran to see if J was alright. It turned out he was just fine.
The next battle was tomorrow so I decided to look for Carollyn with Shadow and Flarebolt. We went into multiple stores that Carollyn would like asking if they had seen her, no one had. Then we entered the herbal shop. I asked the owner if he had seen her and he said no. "Come here." Flarebolt said. I walked over to him and he had a bracelet, Carollyn's. Then saw a piece of cape, and on it was a letter, K. It must be a evil symbol of Kilak the tyrant.
"Shadow, we are leaving!" I yelled.
"Okay." We walked to the castle, it was bigger than the arena dome. "We, cant take the drawbridge, they have it up, so how will we get across considering the release lever is over there?" Asked Shadow. Flarebolt disappeared and reappeared next to the lever. Flarebolt began to laugh and kicked the lever.
The drawbridge lowered down slowly and we ran across. "We cant just knock on the front door." said Shadow.
"I can handle that one," I said, "Give me your swords." They all handed me their swords. I transformed, then realized something. "Here, we dont need these." I said handing them their swords back. I picked up Shadow and flew up to a window. Flarebolt had teleported inside already.
"Why don't you just teleport to Carollyn?" I asked Flarebolt. "I can only teleport to things I can see." He replied. "Ok, I can produce a small invisibility prayer. It will not last for more than three minutes though." said Shadow. My vision got kind of blurry and we were invisible. I turned and looked at a mirror on the wall. I was looking straight at it but nothing was there. "Good job." I said and took off down the corridor.
I peered around the corner and saw two guards. They were both wearing iron armor, easy to defeat. I ran out unseen and when they werent facing each other. I killed one of them with a quick jab in the neck... I jumped over and killed the other with a stab in the side of his chest. They both fell to the ground dead and we continued to be unseen.
I jumped to the wall and dug my claws in. I went up to the ceiling and starting crawling across it. I didnt know where Flarebolt and Shadow were until I heard the scream of a guard. I kept on my path though, still hanging on the ceiling. I found two more guards by a downward staircase. I dropped to the floor and drew my bow. I fired an arrow and stabbed the other.
I grabbed a few items from them, two short swords, a few more arrows, and a healing potion. I walked down the staircase then I noticed something in the corner of my eye, it was my arm. I saw a guard and quickly flew to the ceiling. The guard walked by, but I stayed in the air. I went down a little further and heard an alarm horn.
I knew Flarebolt and Shadow had been seen. All the guards around me ran towards the stairs. I pulled out my bow and shot one. The guards all turned around and looked for me. I shot another one in the chest and they saw me. The guards had no way to reach me, too bad some had bows. Five arrows shot toward me at once.
I tried to dodge them all but one hit my right wing. The arrow was jammed into the ceiling and I couldn't reach over far enough to pull it out. I pulled out my shield and blocked the raining fleet of arrows. I got an idea of how to get down, but it was dangerous. I had to try it anyway, so I turned back to my original form and began to fall. I transformed again and dove after the guards.
There was only about fifteen so I just sliced away with the dragon sword. The guards were almost all gone then ten or more appeared.
"I hope I remember how to do this." I mumbled. "Shockwave Power Blast!" I shoved my sword into the ground and a huge shockwave emerged. It was four times as big as when I used it on Tride because I was so much more powerful.
The shockwave froze the guards in place, then with in a huge inferno they flew into the walls. I actually had to dodge the flying guards. Some even hit the ceiling, but not one guard survived. I pulled my sword out of the ground and caught my breath. I took the top of the potion vial and drank it. The Shockwave Power Blast takes a lot of energy out of me.
I heard some footsteps so I flew to the ceiling and drew my bow. I placed an arrow on it and pulled back the string. Then Flarebolt and Shadow came running out of the doorway, followed by a large group of guards, and at the back of the group was Kilak. I shot the arrow at Kilak, but without even looking, he blocked it.
Kilak twisted his head and stared at me, and in his hand was...a dragon sword with a blue handle! Mine was red but they were exactly the same besides that. Then I thought for a moment, does that mean he can......
The floor around Kilak was covered in water. It started to rise in a perfect cylinder around him. He grew wings, claws, tail, and fangs, just like me. I could feel his power rising. After transforming he flew at me with his sword in front of him. "Uh oh!" I yelled dodging the blade. "This can't be good." I swung at him but he blocked.
Kilak spun around and kicked but I punched. I hit him in the face as he hit me in the stomach. We both flew and hit the wall. I looked down and saw Flarebolt and Shadow fighting guards. I looked back up just as the blade hit. I fell to the floor so hard that it cracked. I reached up and felt blood all over my face. He sliced me all the way down my face.
I started to feel dizzy and almost passed out. Kilak landed right in front of me and put his blade to my throat. I was ready for my life to end and the dream I had so long ago, before we entered the tunnel and met Rease, flashed by but Carollyn was not in the dream this time, and neither was I. Kilak placed his sword behind his head like I did to Trintar. He swung his sword down toward my chest and I heard the words, "Flarebolt Blast!"
A huge wave of fire hit Kilak and he flew against the wall. Then the fire turned into electricity and nearly electrocuted him to death. The move had killed all the guards. "Go find Carollyn!" I yelled standing up.. Flarebolt and Shadow took off down the hall. I wiped the blood from my face and jumped at Kilak. I shoved my sword deep into the wall right next to his head, he had dodged it at the last moment.
He tried to stab me but I jumped back. Kilak rose his sword above his head but began to stagger. I heard him gasp, and then he screamed. He screamed again and then I noticed two small blades in him. Another appeared and Kilak fell to the ground. I looked behind him and saw Jinjaninja, good as new. He threw another dagger which hit Kilak in the back again.
I grabbed Kilak by the neck and rose him up in the air. He grabbed my hands trying to make me release him but I held tight. "Where is my family, where are Lance and Rose Ralse?" I yelled. "Tell me!"
"I sold them to a man in Varrock..." He gasped. Then all of a sudden his power began to increase. An aura blasted out from his body and threw my back.
Shadow, Flarebolt, and Carollyn came back into the room. Kilak just kept powering up. "This is my final attack, and I intend to kill you with it!" A fire arose from him and dragon spirits flew out of his body in every direction. The dragon spirits flew into every corner of the room, then exploded in a huge blast. I was thrown back into the wall which busted open.
I fell outside on to the grass, followed by Flarebolt and Jinjaninja. "Carollyn and Shadow they are still inside!" I said as the building began to fall. I ran back inside searching for them, I dodged a huge falling section of the roof. "Shadow, Carollyn this way!" I said, "Follow my voice!" I flew to the hole in the wall. "Hurry!"
I jumped back as the whole castle collapsed. "No!, Shadow, Carollyn!" I yelled. Jinjaninja couldnt speak and Flarebolt just looked astonished. I went back to the rubble and began throwing sections of the building out of the way. Flarebolt and Jinjaninja soon came over to help. "We have to find them!" I said holding back tears.
I lifted up a piece of rubble and found.....Shadow and Carollyn. both of them were dead.
"Why!" I yelled to the sky. "Why, would you kill a priest, Onithoray, and a poor girl!" A huge aura blasted out of my body I felt more powerful than anything in the world. I shot a blast of energy at the rubble and found Kilak's mangled body.
I flew over to his corpse and picked up his sword. My dragon sword and his fused together some how making a new green blade. I stabbed my sword into Kilak's already dead body. "Curse you fool, they were my friends! You took my family and I was lonely my whole life and then you take my friends!" I said falling to my knees.
I just lay there and gave up. I began to feel very strange, I started to laugh and my body grew even stronger. My wings grew longer, as did my claws and tail. My eyes turned pure red, then I lost control. I took my bow and aimed it at Flarebolt. I released the string and it hit him in the shoulder. He screamed and fell to the ground..... I fell back as well, my swords split apart, and everything blacked out.
