Here is the hard cold truth when your about to die you do not I repeat DO NOT see your entire life flash before your eyes, instead you have a terrifying realization that you will never get to do the things you always wanted to do and never got to especially when you don't remember who you are. As the man swung in a giant arc at me time itself seemed to slow down I looked around and I could see every moment at once it was as if time stopped my hands as if done a thousand times immediately went to my sword as I pulled it out time sped back up and I blocked the incoming swing just in time my opponent shocked at my sudden speed fallowed up with several more attacks which I all blocked with ease I had no idea how I was doing it but it almost felt natural and I knew some how in the life I should remember I must have fought often as my attacker got tired I decided it was time I switch tactics and with my heavy broadsword I used one handed I swung and switched to the offensive it didn't take long to cut down the man in front of me I looked over at Sara she had already finished two of the attackers but the man who started this fight was putting her in a tight jam with his comrade. "Hey ugly" I shouted "let's even the odds me and you". He turned and I saw pure hate in his eyes as he left Sara I began to feel that challenging him might not have been my brightest idea but I decided I would give it all I got besides apparently my body knows what it's doing and with that I charged to meet him. Beak nose and I were locked in combat for what felt forever I looked around to see if Sara could help from the looks of it she just finished off beak noses second in command and it looked like he noticed it to. As I was about to do an overhead attack beak nose did a few fast repeated jabs that I had little time to blocked then he ran. It was only when I looked down at my sword did I notice mine had an eye crest symbol. " Is this important?" I asked Sara. She shook her head "I don't know but I know some one who might " I tried to catch my breath "Wow that was tough though who were they" I looked at Sara. "I am getting tired of saying this but I don't know, more importantly who are you" "I'm Connor we already went over this" I said "No no no those were not regular bandits Connor those were mercenaries hired to kill some one but the question is who" I stared at her blankly "Well at least we got rid of them" I said. "Hmmm this doesn't make sense come on were going to the high leader" "Whose the high leader" I said "He isn't really high on drugs is he" I grinned at her. She looked ate with a stare I could have sworn could kill. "Come on let's get out of here"
