Bravae took a deep breath and raised the sword in the air.
Nothing happened.
His heart skipped a beat. He raised the sword again.
Nothing happened.
He panicked and stuck it on the ground with both hands.
Nothing happened again.
And the braunians were rushing towards him almost upon him. With many now having their rifles pointed at him
"Get on the ground!" a Soldier screamed at him.
The sword had failed him; he was a goner.
Or so he thought at that moment.
Before a blinding flash hit.
And a powerful slash was heard, and two braunians fell.
A tall hooded figure holding a sword landed in front of bravae.
The tall hooded figure slashed once again, killing more soldiers.
"Take Cover" the figure said to bravae. Who got down and rolled into the bushes with the sword.
What happened next was spectacular.
A second hooded figure dropped down from the trees, but the second figure did not have a sword rather light emanated from its hands.
A rather curious yellow beam.
"open fire!" shouted the commander.
And with that a barrage of gunshots followed.
But the second warrior used the energy beams In its hands to create a sort of force field That blocked all The bullets from harming them.
"Wow!" Bravae exclaimed from the bushes he was Hiding from,he had never seen anything Like it.
From within the energy field the first but taller sword bearing figure leapt into the air and flew several meters into the hoard of firing braunians and began to attack them. Some of them pulled out their own swords and tried to duel him but it was to no avail. He was too fast and too skilled, his attacks were swift and precise.
A cut here a slash There, one my one he maimed them it was one man versus an army, in a matter of minutes he had maimed 20 officers.
Whilst the second figure began to shoot energy beams at the soldiers blasting many of them into small bits. It was quite the sight.
Words could not explain the shock, fear and bewilderment of the soldiers. Many fired their weapons from a distance but they could not stop the two hooded warriors.
"Fall back, retreat!" said the commander as a group of braunians formed a circle around him as they fired at the warriors who dodged them.
A soldier in the distance threw a round circular object at the warriors.
For the first time the warriors stopped their attack and rushed to where rumein was tied.
The object exploded, with a loud bang and a cloud of dust and fire.
But the second warrior made a force field once again that prevented The explosion from harming them.
By now more braunian soldiers were pouring in from all sides, in their hundreds.
Reinforcements.
Bravae and orvae got out from their cover and rushed towards the two hooded figures.
"We need to get out of here"the second figure said to the first. in a feminine voice.
The first warrior had untied rumein and put him on his back.
he turned to bravae and said.
"Bravae you and your friend should grab a hold of her"
Bravae wondered how the warrior knew his name.
but there was no time to think The second warrior had already stretched out its arms.
So he and orvae grabbed hold of the warrior whilst the first warrior grabbed hold of the two of them.
The second warrior screamed some strange words into the night.
And the ground around them began to spin.
And a great wind began to blow around them Like a tornado.
It spun for a few seconds.
And when the spinning stopped to bravaes greatest surprise they were no longer in the forest. But rather They were in the mountains.
Orvae and bravae had their mouths open in disbelief.
They let go of the warrior who walked away from Them.
The first warrior took off his hood to reveal his identity.
Bravae had seen this face before it was none other than the merchant who had picked him up earlier,Indumae.
"Indumae!" Bravae gasped.
Indumae simply chuckled and slapped bravae on his shoulder.
The second warrior also took off its hood and it was none other than the lady merab.
Bravae couldn't believe It.
"do you know them?" orvae asked bravae.
"Well kind of," bravae said to him.
"You always have your suprises." orvae said, chuckling.
They were in front of a small hut, deep in the mountains. The door opened and a middle aged man walked out with unkempt Hair and clothes.
He smiled widely at them.
"gbavamy!" both orvae and bravae choroused
"Yes my friends, you all should come inside, you look like you've had quite a bad day," he said to them.
To which they all made their way into the small hut.
"Bring him here!" gbavamy told indumae who was carrying rumein on his shoulder.
Indumae put the old man on a small bed made of straw, which sat by the fire.
"You have not notified me or the order, about your visit,and to cap it off you have made an attack on the braunian army, the second actually in the 3 days" gbavamy said to indumae somewhat cross-faced whilst taking off rumeins garments and treating his wounds.
"the situation was already dire the braunians are already stirred after the situation in the forest, and you failed to act as the grand protector of deiamy"
Indumae replied.
By now bravae,orvae and the lady merab had sat down on the small stools by the door of the small hut.
Gbavamy sighed deeply.
He was deeply distressed by the situation, the old man had been beaten badly, and was going into shock.
"This is not how I handle these issues," he said to indumae.
"What would you rather do than stand and watch yet another innocent man die and hands of those bastards, the time has come gbavamy the 3rd revolution is upon us,The sword has been found" indumae said turning his head to bravae. Who was sitting with the large black sword between his legs.
Gbavamy looked at bravae too and nodded his head.
"Who would have thought after all these years the ill fated son of okevae would be the successor of Amaniwen. Nevertheless he is far from ready it will take years for him to master the power of the sword he cannot lead the pylae, that's Why what you did by using your powers against the braunians was reckless And ill advised"
Gbavamy Said.
"He doesn't have to be ready, he only has to stand in front of the pylae, he can be uniting factor a source Of hope, the orders of the 5 kingdoms can come together finally as one to drive Out the braunians once and for all, it wasn't ill advised I simply Kickstarted The revolution"
Indumae said, sitting down.
"What Are you going to do about the reprisal Killings that will definitely follow, The man Hunts, and the danger that you have put everyone but yourself in"
Gbavamy said, slamming his fist on the table in front of indumae.
At this point bravae had Had enough, he had been listening to their conversation intently but none of it made sense To him.
He stood up and said
"what are you guys talking about, gbavamy what's happening, who is amaniwen, and what's all this about? Come on I need an explanation for all of this"
The two men turned their heads at bravae. They both sighed.
Gbavamy stood up on walked to bravae.
"it's okay I understand how you feel, you're confused and scared, you've been thrown into a world that you didn't know existed, but it's okay I'm here to guide you every step up of the way,but I need you to listen and understand everything I'm about to say"
Bravae sat back down. Before saying okay I'm all ears.
"you my friend are the successor of Toro amaniwen,and you have rediscovered the mythical sword of bamono, the black dragon, the mother of fire"
Bravae looked up at him, still confused.
"Toro who?" he managed to say.
"Toro amaniwen the bringer of ash" gbavamy said.
