The Twisted Life

The Blade

           "Well that took a very long time to finish." I said.

           "Much longer than 3 weeks." King said with a moan of pain. 

           "Yes, yes it did. And yet Still, we have not so much as melted the metals down! It may be a foolish question but do you even have a furnace at this camp or must we make that as well?"  I asked. 

           "No, no we have an ok to use furnace here. This may be a mining camp but it still must have a way to melt it down."

          "Sometimes you are very blunt on your tone my friend. But for now we can ignore it and start to melt the old sword and the new adamite so I may leave as soon as possible. Do you even know how long it took us to get this far?" King shook his head in denial, "I fear if I take to much longer my friends may not be there any more."

          "Well then, we need to get working!" 3 days and 2 nights passed and finally the scottish claymore's edges were coated in adamite.

          "Can you even still swing that thing? It is substantially heavier than before," King commented with a frown.

          "Of course I can old friend, there is no heavy weapon I can't use."

          "I'm not concerned about that, I'm concerned that you won't be able to Lift it."

         "Can I get that armor you said you had made me?"

        "Of course, of course. Come with me." We went into a smaller area, small but big enough to be used as a bunker. "Let's see hear... Oh there it is."

       He was takes down an obsidian set infused with raw steel. "Thank you friend, I owe you once more."

      "Yes, yes you do."

        I finally reach the area which the cabin resides in, but something is wrong. As I walk up to the door I hear unusual sounds coming from the indoors, "Alright, time to test this sword out," I mumble to myself. I draw the Scottish claymore from its sheath but it makes no noise because of the new padding that we installed.

Knock, knock, knock

         "Jack, go check the door."

        "No the boss said not to check the door!"

        "Fine I'll do it my self," I say loud enough for everyone in the single room cabin to hear.

       "Oh no."

      I open the door to my cabin and bodycheck the person running at me. The other four guys see this and run at me, kicking the first guy and cutting down the other three there is blood all over the floor. "Hey guys, you in here?"

       "VICTOR!!!" 

        I see Abbi run out from the couch, "So did I miss anything big? Anything special?" I then see Quick, Rax, and Angel come out from the couch as well.

      "We need to talk, Victor," Angel says.

         "Ok, but where is Forest?"

         "I'll tell you outside."

      This can't be good I'm thinking to myself.

********************************************************************************************

    We walk outside and into the woods near the cabin.

    "So what's up? Where is Forest?" I ask nervously

    "I think he said something about saving us, I don't know, but, we have something else top talk about" she says back in an unhappy tone

    " Oh, ok. And I'm sorry but I found King in an abandoned mining camp a couple miles away from the camp, I then proceeded to upgrade my equipment and get new armor. I figured that it would take longer than I told you but you were in charge and you knew what to do if something happened. You would've beed a great leader or Rax or even Quick, but I got caught up and now that I'm finally back we can get out of here and go to a more secure place until everything calms down."

      "Your excuses aren't good enough anymore. I'm not going to be your girlfriend anymore."

      "I see your point and I'm not going to try to keep you, I haven't really been good to you at all. I'm sorry."

      "Well at least you understand."

     We hear rustling from all around us and seven figures appear,

    "You two are coming with us."

    "Twenty coins say I'm not," I say sarcastically.

     "What?"

     Angel flips out her daggers and takes out two of the guys, I turn around and slam the two guys' heads in behind me but as I look up I see hoards more warriors are coming,

     "Angel, stand down. We are outnumbered, big time."

     We both know that our true forms are single person jobs. 

     "I'll take the twenty coins now."
