Fate of a Swordsman

Tale of Terror

 

The guild walked through a moongate that Seth had created that lead them not to far from Yew, they could see fires and hear screams of terror.

That bastard said Scott, these are more than rumors the entire village is under attack.

Scott ran towards Yew, smoke rose from the buildings, Scott encountered a person but he could not see him to well since it was still night.

Are you ok? said Scott

Suddenly an arrow flew from Bwoires bow and hit the man in the face.

What are you doing? said Scott

That is no man, it was a zombie, the undead are here said Bwoire, do not let them get to close to you.

The guild walked towards the village, they were now inside, they heard nothing, suddenly there were alot of moans. Zombies were coming out from the night, there were 5 of them.

Scott walked up to one and took its head off, Caend and Falcon killed one each and Bwoire shot two. Suddenly all around them all them could see were mangled, mutilated bodies walking towards them.

Sever there heads yelled Bwoire.

Hundreds started walking towards the guild, Scott let out a might scream and ran towards crowds of the undead swinging.

Scott get out of there yelled Bwoire, your gonna get yourself killed

Scott continued to cut his way through the undead with his two katana's when he tripped on a severed head and fell to the ground, the zombies started pilng ontop of him knawing at his armor. Scott could not get up the wieght on him was too heavy.

Falcon and Caend started cutting through the crowds of zombies, Bwoire was not too far behind him. They started killing the zombies ontop of Scott enough to get him off, they did not know where they where now and they were surrounded by zombies.

Scott stopped swinging, he put out his hand, he had a focused instead of angry look about him, he pushed his hand forward and a group of zombies were forced back,

Follow me said Scott, he did not look angry, he swung his sword hitting some but sending the rest flying. They got to the end of the crowd of zombies, they started running away from them out into Yew wood, once they were clear they stopped to rest.

We got to get back there said Caend.

We cannot said Bwoire, it is to dangerous. Everyone sat down except for Bwoire, he looked to the south and he saw an arrow flying towards Caends face, he caught it in mid air.

ORCS yelled Bwoire, out of the woods orcish warriors started to advance on the group, an orc took a swing at Bwoires head, but he parried and split the orc in two, more orcs came out of the woods, day was now peaking over the forest. There were multiple Orcs crowding around Scott trying to kill him but he would simply parry with his left sword and slice with his right, ahead of Scott was Falcon, he let out a mighty war cry and started hacking down Orcs all around, Caend ran towards Scott to assist him with the mass of Orcs trying to destroy him. More orcs were coming, Scott could hear there drums and war cries. Bwoire sheathed his sword and pulled out a double bladed staff, Orcs ran towards him but were no match for Bwoire, he swung his double bladed staff with grace, suddenly there were no more orcs.

They stood there for a minute to be sure none of there limbs or didgits were cut off, not a wound on them. Suddenly there was a loud laugh. Out in the wood right infront of him was a mighty Orc warrior bigger than Maluk. He had two swords in his hand. I am Calun Tuk.

Three more Xal Nog orc came out from the woods, and these are my sons, Zal Tunuk, Shal Zuk and Dal Nuk.

The three sons also were equipped with two swords.

Caend and Falcon both had one Katana.

Bwoire handed Caend and Falcon his katana's. He then gripped his double bladed staff tightly.

Well what are you waiting for said Scott, an inventation.

The 8 warriors then clashed into battle.

Caend was fighting the orc Dal Nuk the Dal Nuk's strength was great, his skill was greater than Caends but he managed to parry him. Dal Nuk took a swing towards his head, Caend held the sword at bay, the other one flew towards his head, he was now holding two swords at bay, he kicked Dal Nuk in the chest and he fells backwards.

Falcon was fighting Zal Tunuk, Falcon took a swing towards to orcs head, the orc parried it, Falcon kept on swinging and swinging attempting to kill the orc.

Bwoire was fighting Shal Zuk, he swung and parried with his double bladed staff fast, Shal Zuk took a swing towards Bwoires legs he jumped over the orcs body, the orc turned around and swung with his left sword but in the process got his hand sliced off, Bwoire turned right and ran him through with the staff.

Scott was fighting Calun Tuk, Scott was loosing a battle he parried and parried quickly but he could not go for a swing himself, Bwoire ran towards Scotts aid, both of them now were fighting the mighty Xal Nog, his speed and strength were too great, Bwoire faltered and got stabbed in the left shoulder, he dropped his wepond and gripped his shoulder. Bwoire walked over to the Xal Nogs hand which lay on the ground, took the katana and shiethed it. He took back his bow in great pain and shot towards Zal Tunuk, he hit him in the leg, distracted Falcon quickly took the orcs head off. Falcon ran towards Caend and aided him, Dal Nuk Realizing he was in trouble ran back towards his father.

We must make leave father, we are dieing.

Falcon started helping Scott out, Scott faltered and almost got his head taken off, he fell on his back, Bwoire bent his bow back and shot Calun Tuk in the stomach, the orc grew with rage, Falcon faltered and got stabbed in the leg

We go now said Calun Tuk. The two orcs ran off into the woods.

Falcon tried to stand up straight, I am alright, tis a flesh wound nothing more.

You fight bravely Falcon said a voice from the woods, but your bravery will be the death of you.

Who is there said Caend.

A cloaked figure appeared from behind a tree, it walked towards the company.

Who are you said Scott.

Do you not remember me said the hooded figure, I remember you, you took somthing very precious from me.

What is that said Scott.

The hooded figure removed its cloak, it had an arrow through it's head. It was Cal Nur Tuk.

Thats impossible, your dead said Scott.

You are correct said Cal Nur Tuk, YOU TOOK AWAY MY LIFE!

How do you walk then? said Scott

The gods wont let me die in a sence, even though you killed me, Cal Nur Tuk pulled the arrow out of his eye. So I hear you finnally met Maluk, I am surpised that you have lasted this long.

I am full of suprises said Scott, what do you want?

To talk said Cal Nur Tuk, you see me and you are not so different.

What do you mean? said Scott

Haha foolish boy, the dark mages blood flows through our vains, the same blood that flows through your vains, were like family.

Quite foul beast said Scott, I am not like you or any Xal Nog, I am human.

I can see the rage in your eyes said Cal Nur Tuk, you want to strike me down where I stand, you want the death of every single Orc, have we caused you pain?

Scott gripped his sword, Quite before I will mount your head on my wall.

Cal Nur Tuk laughed, you never cease to amuse me, what else have you not been told, oh yes, you have an older brother.

I already know that said Scott, what is the point of you telling me this?

I mean you have another Older brother.

Where is he? said Scott.

Closer than you think, he happens to be one of your guildmates said Cal Nur Tuk.

Are you serious said Scott, who?

That would ruin the fun, you will find out on the day of total war. If you live to see such a day

Total war? you mean this is just a skirmish.

Exactly said Cal Nur Tuk, I intend for you not to find out though, for you see, I have a debt to repay, Cal Nur Tuk took off the robe, his wounds were still there from the previous battle, he pulled out his blood soaked blade.

Stay back said Scott, this is my battle, I started it, now I shall finnish it.

Scott sheither a katana.

What said Cal Nur Tuk, you only want to use one katana?

I only need one.

Your funeral said Cal Nur Tuk.

Scott walked towards him and the two started to fight, Scott swung his sword with great ease along with Cal Nur Tuk, they clashed swords left and right, Scott managed to kick the Orc and it knocked him back. I prefer to use two said the Orc, he reached out his hand and the sword Scott had shiethed flew into his hand, you see were not that different, Scott reached out to Bwoire and took the katana he had shiether. So do I said Scott, they continued to fight, Scott swung right and spined with momentum to hit with his left, Cal Nur Tuk blocked it with his right katana and swung at his feet with his left, Scott jumped backwards, Cal Nur Tuk came forward with a massive front strike with his right blade nearly splitting Scott into two but he blocked it with his right, he took his left Katana and stabbed the Orcs right Arm. The Orc kept fighting regardless, he swung left and right with great speed all Scott could do was parry, the Orcs faltered and Scott kicked him towards a tree. Walked up to him and stuck his left katana in the Orcs stomach pinning him to the tree. Scott was about to finish him off, then suddenly he put his hand out towards Falcon, a dagger now came flying towards Scotts back, he blocked the knife, the suddenly he felt a huge stabbing pain in his back, he turn around and Cal Nur Tuk had a smirk on his face and his right hand was sticking out with no Katana, Scott looked down, there was a Katana sticking through him. He fell to his knee's. Cal Nur Tuk yelled out, attack! Orcs came out from the woods and started attacking the three other members.

We half to run said Bwoire, lets move! The three ran off into the woods with Scott still on his knee's. You have not won yet said Scott as he coughed up blood, you have not won. Scott pulled out the sword from his stomach, he put the Katana in his right hand, time to finish this, the other sword left the orcs hand stabbing him, he pulled it out, struck down and split the orcs head in half. Scott fell to the ground and darkness crept over his vision.
