My random shit book!

The Rise Of Ravenswoop

so I've been just writing what comes to mind. this is...kind of an experiment? it's in no way original. heavily based off of something. doubt many people will know what it is but if you do I'd be impressed. anyways here's the first chapter

"Ugh..." he opened his eyes, glancing up at the treetops. "Huh...?" he was in a forest, somewhere he didn't recognize. "over there" he blinked. "Hm?" he glanced up to see a male in a guard uniform in front of him. He whipped out a sword and pointed it to his neck. "Who are you? I know you're playing the defenseless wanderer but the moment I turn my back you'll cut me down!" His eyes drooped a little. He was tired and hungry. His body felt weak. "Answer me!" He collapsed on the ground, world going dark. So...tired...

When he came to again he heard two voices. One younger than the other. "I know, why don't we blame it on him?" huh? He kept his eyes closed "that'll make us look even worse" the older voice said. "Not if nobody finds out. All we have to say is that all leads pointed to him causing that fire! Easy!" fire? "when we cornered him he tried to kill us. Get it? Besides he's pretty much dead already" there were footsteps walking over to his bedside and he cracked his eyes open. It was that guard from before, with the red cape. There was another guard, this one with a helmet that covered his face. He was standing a few feet away and had a blue cape. "Ember" the blue caped guard said, in a low voice. "Look he's not even waking up-"

He grabbed his knife, sitting up. He didn't know what was happening but...he was scared. "Oh my Rune he's actually attacking us!" Ember shouted, running back over to the blue caped guard. "Ember calm down" the blue caped one said. He held the knife in a steady grip, on edge. "I wasn't expecting- wait this is a good thing!" Ember said, grinning. "my plan is working!" plan? "We are not doing that stupid plan" the blue caped guard turned his head in the albino's direction. His eyes narrowed and he stared the guard down. He raised his hands. "Kid please... we aren't here to harm you" his grip on the knife didn't waver. The blue caped guard set his sword down on the ground slowly. "See?"

He spoke in a soft and slightly wobbly voice. "W-Where....am I?" he said quietly. The blue caped guard stood back up. "you are in Ravenswoop village. And you are safe here with us" he said. "my name is Cerulean. I am the head guard of this village. This is Ember here, my apprentice-", "Don't tell him our names!" He glanced back and forth from them both, trying to make sense of if he was really safe or not. "Ember stay calm-", "You just said it again!" the sudden raise in volume startled him and he lunged forward, slashing at Ember. He gasped and backed up into the wall. He swung the dagger at Cerulean but he blocked it with his sword. "hey-" he kicked him in the stomach and ran out of the room, glancing around.

He heard footsteps and ran faster. "Hey Cerulean I found this book on the matron-" a young male with curly blonde hair and purple eyes walked in through a door, right in front of him. He held the knife to his neck and he yelped, eyes wide and shocked. "Ahh! w-what's happening!" Cerulean held out an arm, from the stairs. Ember was next to him. "Don't move Eden" he glanced at the two guards. "I'll slice her" he said, arm trembling slightly. Ember's eyes widened. "He's insane! I told you he was the one who killed our lord! He's out of his mind!" Eden's eyes teared up. "I don't wanna be killed!" he cried. "EVERONE SHUT UP!" Cerulean shouted. The albino tensed, grip tightening on the knife. "Please..." the blue caped guard said. "Let him go..." he didn't move the knife. Cerulean sheathed his own sword. "I know you're afraid but I promise on my honor...we do not wish to harm you"
