The Lost Heir

Chapter 3 A Fateful Encounter

The afternoon sun is at its peak as it shines its light down on the grassy plain and the breeze makes the grass sway gently to the east as quiet as can be. Percival continues running through the grassy plain in the outskirts of Keylon. "I will avenge my mother and father and claim the throne in their honor" percival thinks as he is running. As he is thinking this, The silence is broken by someones screams. "What the hell was that?" Percival says to himself. He hears the scream for help again. "It's coming from the north. How convenient for the person in trouble since thats exactly the direction I'm heading in" Percival says to himself as he runs towards the screams. He sees a girl being subdued by two rogue knights. "You're coming with us!" said the first rogue knight in black armor.

"Our boss the new king of Pyro wants you arrested for treason" said the second rogue knight in blue armor. "Let me go! I didnt do anything!" Said the mysterious girl as she resisted. "You're coming with us now!!!" Said both rogues as they struggled to subdue her. "Hey! You heard the lady! Let her go!" Said percival from a tall rock looking down at the scene. "WHO ARE YOU TO GIVE US ORDERS!" Said the first rogue. "YEAH!" The second chimed in. "I am Percival of Pyro now let her go!" Percival said as he jumped down from the rock and drew his swords from their scabbards. "OH BRING IT ON KNAVE" the first draws his sword. Percival makes his first attack and runs straight towards the rogue and slashes his chest plate in half. "WHAT THE!" before the first rogue could finish percival had already stuck his blade through the rogues back. The first rogue died instantly. The second stood frozen in fear staring at the bloody sight.

"You're next if you dont let her go and tell me who you're working for right now." Percival said as he walked slowly towards the second with both swords drawn. The second fell to his knees and pleaded for his life. Percival stood over him "Thats a good man. You made the wise decision now tell me who are you working for?" Percival said looking down at the frightened rogue. "WELL SPEAK UP!" Percival said impatiently. "I work for a rogue sage his name is Morgrim." The terrified rogue said as he shivered in fear.

"Good now get out of my sight before I change my mind about sparing your life!" Percival said as he looked at the knight with cold red eyes. The knight got to his feet and ran off. "Hmph so easily scared at least I got the information I came for" Percival said as he walked off. "Th thank you Percival." The girl said. "He's so cool and cute," The girl thought as she blushed. "You're welcome but I didnt save you just to help you I just wanted information and I got it." Percival said as he walked off. " I love him he is so cool and cute." She thought as she stood there while blushing bright red. "PERCIVAL WAIT I CAN HELP YOU!" The girl yelled as she tried to catch up with him. "How can you possibly help me." Percival said as the girl caught up with him. "I can make medicines and heal people." The girl said as her heart began to beat faster and faster the closer she got to Percival. He thought about what the girl he said. "Looks like you are of use to my cause. Alright you can tag along with me." Percival said calmly. "I wont let you down I promise!" The girl said as she began to follow Percival. "YES! NOW I CAN GET HIM TO LIKE ME AND WE WILL BE TOGETHER!" she thought as she began to blush from all the thoughts of her and Percival together swelled into her mind.
