Chapter 1 part 4

       ~Field of Foe~
Roulx was in a rush. Since he knew where Seam's shop was, he decided to lead the group. Not only did he know where he was going but if Ralsei were to lead, he'd take his sweet time. Lancer seemed to be enjoying the time outside. Though, the forest seemed more overgrown than he remembered. How long ago was the fall of the king? How long ago did the lighteners come to their world? These questions took Rroulx's focus away from the world around him. Then, suddenly, he was pulled up by his leg and into a tree. "OH MY ME-" Roulx took a moment to look around. "Dad! Are you ok?" Lancer shouted, looking up at him. "Yes yes I'm fine. Just a bit startled." Roulx tried to set himself free."Do you require assistance?" Ralsei asked, tipping his hat up so he could see Roulx better. "No no. I'm fine. I don't need any help from YOU." Roulx had a bit of venum in his voice when addressing Ralsei. Lancer, of course, was oblivious to Rroulx's hatred. Susie sighed. She didn't want them to fight again so she summoned her axe and cut Roulx down. To others, it looked like a red axe had come out of nowhere to free Roulx. Lancer smiled at Susie. "Thanks Susie!" he was quite happy as it was kinda hard to get her to do nice things for others."Yes uh, thank you Susie." Roulx looked in the direction Lancer was looking in. He began to brush himself off."Now who in their right mind would just set a trap in the middle of the road?" He asked as he kicked what was left of the rope into the bushes. "WE- ahem- I WOULD!" a voice shouted. They all looked over to see a very tall Rudinn in a trench coat. Roulx squinted. He then realised it was 3 people stacked on top of each other. Ralsie had already figured that out."I! Uh... MR.BUBBLES! AM HERE TO RUIN YOUR DAY HEATHENS!" The Rudinn loudly proclaimed. Ralsie snickers. "And why is that?" Roulx questioned, crossing his arms. "Because YOU!" points at the group "Are criminals!" The Rundinn proclaimed with a smile. The person below the Rundinn mumbled, "I don't think they want to play Bobbert..." then the person below them nodded, or at least tried to. They almost fell over. "Fine, I'll ask then." The Rundinn whispered back. "Do you want to play our game?" he shouted, which was quite unnecessary. Roulx sighed. "I-" he was cut off by Lancer. "Sure! We'd love to play!" He answered excitedly, running up to them.
"Alrighty then!" They entered a battle. Roulx was still startled by the sight of the soul despite the countless times he's seen it. "I can handle this." Ralsie tipped down his hat. Roulx glared at Ralsie. "No! They're just children." He snapped at him. "Do you even know what kind of damage children can do Roulx?" Ralsie asked calmly. "Yes! They're harmless." Roulx argued. "Is that so? Then fine. YOU lead the party. But don't expect too much from me." Ralsie was getting fed up with Roulx but didn't want to upset Lancer by leaving. They both look over at Lancer and 'Mr.Bubbles'.  "Are you done yet?" Lancer asked with his arms crossed as Mr.Bubbles stood there awkwardly. "Yes sorry Lancer." Ralsei apologize. Roulx definitely didn't want to hurt children so he decided to play along. Mr.Bubbles pointed at the group again. "I shall not lose!" They shouted before showing off a basic diamond attack. No one was hurt. Roulx decides to act and sets the others to defend. "*You swing your lance at Mr.Bubbles. They step back dramatically." Kris mumbles to Roulx, causing him to look over at them. It's now Mr.Bubbles turn and a single dagger is thrown at Ralsei. "Uh, could we have that back?" Mr.Bubbles asks politely. Ralsei just kinda stares at it and acts out of turn, kicking it back. Roulx kinda glares at Ralsei before setting Lancer to act with him. "*You and Lancer laugh villainously. Mr.Bubbles is getting fired up." Kris mumbled yet again. This time, a offensive heart attack moved around the battlefield, hitting Lancer. He wasn't hurt badly, just 2HP. Ralsei didn't like this and yet again acted out of turn. He shot a small fireball at Mr.Bubbles, causing the kids in the trenchcoat to fall over wich ended the battle. "*You won. You got 0EXP and 2Dark dollars." Kris mumbled but Roulx talked over them. "Why did you do that?!" Roulx shouted at Ralsei. "They hurt Lancer." He said looking composed but the frustration in his voice was obvious."It was a minor attack! Lancer has 700HP you didn't need to be so aggressive!" Roulx then looks over at Lancer. "You're ok right?" He asked in a much more nicer tone. "I feel great! That was fun!" Lancer exclaimed excitedly."See, he's fine. Now apologize." Roulx looks over to where the kids had fallen over, only to see that they were gone. "Where did they-" Roulx started before Ralsei pushed passed him."You were so insistent that we get the key quickly so let's go." Ralsei said, quite annoyed. Roulx rolled his eyes before following. Lancer and C.round right behind them.
