The 4th Domain

How I became King

Great way to start off a chapter: a blatantly obvious chapter title that states the entire plot of itself. Whatever, let's just get on with the story.

I was ten. My mother and my little sister would stay home farming. My dad would take my older brother and I hunting. We always had so much fun. No one fought. We all loved each other more than anything on The Overworld. Then one night we heard a rumbling noise. We looked outside and saw an entire army of skelletons, armed, shooting at our house. As they approached my dad took the family diamond sword, the blue blade begging to slay the undead creatures. He went out and fended off the line bravely, but their bows were too strong. My brother and I ran to our rooms, got our bows, and ran to the roof in hopes to hold off the front line until dawn. But they inched closer throughout the night and eventually my brother got his iron sword and went downstairs to defend our mother and sister. But the skelletons were better. They took all three and did God knows what with them. But I fought on through the night, using my anger as motivation. I killed them all, including the chief. I kept one unarmed, on a chain and made him take me to the king. I killed the king and took the throne. I rule fairly and peacefully. They taught me how to survive without much good or water, and less oxygen than usual. I forgave them since then. But I will never, ever, forget that night.
