Ethan was living in a village until a group of raiders came and raided the village. One of the raiders stole something dear to Ethan. Join the journey of how he will get it back
It was a cold breezy day for the village of Stacket. The horses were being put in the barn while shops were starting to close. Ethan and Annabelle were helping the shop owner clean up for closing. Ethan was stacking boxes while Annabelle was mopping the floor. After they finish Ethan grabbed a bottle of water and sat down next to Annabelle.
"So how has traveling been Annabelle?" Ethan asked while taking a sip of water.
"How about I show you." Annabelle replied while reaching into her backpack.
After a while, Annabelle pulled out some golden coins, some books, a few weapons and a handle that belongs to a sword. The handle had a lion and was silver but the blade was missing.
"What's that?" Ethan asked.
"It's a handle to a legendary sword known as Excalibur. I don't know where the rest of the blade is so pretty much this is useless to me." Annabelle replied.
"Then why did you grab it?" Ethan asked.
"To be honest, I don't know. Here." Annabelle replied and handed the handle to Ethan.
"Your giving it to me? But why?" Ethan asked while fixing his glasses.
"Well knowing you. You will probably find some use to it. Plus I'm not a fan of swords like you are. Speaking of you, how's your magic training going? Last time I was here, you were learning magic from your grandpa." Annabelle replied with a smile.
"He passed away a few months ago after you left." Ethan replied with a frown on his face and a tear leaving his eye.
"Oh Ethan, I'm so sorry." Annabelle said with a frown.
"It's ok. I miss him but I am forever grateful for everything he taught me and all the memories we had together." Ethan replied as he lifted his glasses up and wiped the tear away and dropped them back down as he lifted up his necklace that his grandpa gave him.

"Isn't that his necklace that he never took off?" Annabelle asked.
"Yeah. He gave it to me before passing away." Ethan replied.
Suddenly the lights turned off and screams could be heard outside. Ethan and Annabelle ran outside and saw buildings burning and people running. A group of people were chasing them with swords, axes, daggers, and more while they killed some villagers. Annabelle ran off to help some of the villagers fight back against the attackers while Ethan ran to his house to get his sword so he can help. While running to his house Ethan passed by some lifeless bodies and blood on the floor. When Ethan reached his house he was meet with three people stealing his stuff. The first one saw him and charged at him with his axe in the air ready to slice at Ethan. Ethan sidestepped to the right avoiding the axe and roundhouse kicked the guy causing him to fly into the table. The other two heard and charged at him. Ethan ducked under an attack and landed a punch to the attacker's jaw, while the other one tried to swing his axe while Ethan kicked his knee, making the attacker drop to his knee and got knocked out with a punch. Ethan was gonna go into his room until he felt a hit to the back of his head causing him to pass out.
(That's the end of this chapter. Sorry for taking so long. I have been very busy working on two other books known as "Love in Hell" and "The Son Of Wick" so I'm really busy but i will try my best to post more often. I'm so for the wait and I hope you have a nice day)
