It was late at night.
During a full moon.
Jacob, Bedivere, Lucan and Tom were all sitting at a lake. Enjoying the reflection of the full moon on the waters of the lake.
" Hey Tom. I heard that you can now hold your own against Sir Bedivere and Sir Lucan " Said Jacob.
" Yeah, but I still have a long way to go " Said Tom.
" Come on man. Have a little more confident in yourself " Said Jacob while giving Tom a hug.
" I know. Sir Bedivere and Sir Lucan tell me the same thing, but I am nothing compared to you and Loholt, and even Mordred " said Tom, a little sad.
" Tom. I want to tell you something very important. There is a golden rule when it comes to anything you do. Never, and I mean never. Compare yourself with others. Some may have trained for years. Others, just have a talent for certain things, but was is truly inspiring. Is the fact that you are willing to try, and that the fact, that you don't give up " Said Jacob with a smile.
Tom turned away from Jacob. Wiping a tear from his right cheek.
Tom then looked at Jacob (with a warm smile on his face) and gave Jacob a thumbs up, and Jacob in return. Gave Tom a thumbs up.
" Alright boys. It is time for us to return to Camelot " Said Bedivere.
" Oh come on. 5 more minutes. Please " Said Jacob.
" Not a chance. It is already way passed both your bedtimes. Now let us get going " Said Bedivere.
" Fine " Said both Tom and Jacob.
Lucan also got ready to leave, but then Lucan said " Do you guys hear that? "
Bedivere, Tom and Jacob were silent, and listened.
That was when all four of them could hear a voice coming from the nearby forest.
" Look at those fools. Exposing themselves like that. They are too easy too kill. Don't you agree brother? " Said a voice.
" Your right brother. It is like they are begging us to kill them. So why don't we put them out of their misery " Said another voice.
Bedivere and Lucan both drew forth their swords.
" Boys get behind us immediately " Said Bedivere, and so Jacob and Tom were both behind Bedivere and Lucan.
" Who are you? " Said Lucan.
" Us? We are beasts in the night " Said one voice.
" We hunt in the darkness, and we have come for your lives " Said the another voice.
" What do we do brother? " said Lucan.
" We stay calm. Tom and Jacob's lives take priority " Said Bedivere.
" If only we could see them, but all we can see, is the darkness of the forest " Said Lucan.
For awhile it was quiet, and afterwards. Bedivere saw something coming straight at him, so he blocked it with his sword, and then looked at what fell on the ground.
" A dart? They are shooting darts at us, and what is even worse. I can see some poison on the dart. Boys. Whatever happens. Do not let a single dart hit you " Said Bedivere.
" Right " Said Both Tom and Jacob.
" But brother. We are sitting docks here " Said Lucan.
" I am aware of that, but there is nothing we can do. We can't see the enemy " Said Bedivere.
" Well then, it looks like I need to do something about that " Said Jacob.
Jacob then ran straight into the forest.
" Come back! " Said Bedivere, but Jacob did not stop.
" So do you have a plan? " Said Azrael.
" Indeed. If we can't see the enemy then all I have to do is make some light " Said Jacob.
Jacob now opened his mouth. and out came blue flames. Jacob lit the forest on fire. and after a few second. Both enemies jumped out from the trees they were hiding on. The enemy now stood face to face with Bedivere, Lucan and Tom. Jacob also ran back to the group.
" Jacob. I will have a long lecture waiting for you, when we get back to Camelot " Said Bedivere with a strict tone in his voice.
" And I can't wait for it " Said Jacob.
Lucan pointed his sword at the enemy and said " At the very least introduce yourselves "
" I am Xbalanque, and this is my brother. Hunahpu "
" And like we said before. All of you are going to die this day " Said Hunahpu.
Bedivere and Lucan readied themselves, but then suddenly. Tom charged straight at Hunahpu, and drew forth his sword.
" Get back here you idiot! " Said Lucan.
" I see someone is eager to die " Said Hunahpu, and tried to kill Tom with his sword, but Tom docked under Hunahpu's sword, and drove his sword straight into Hunahpu's chest. Killing Hunahpu.
" Brother! I will kill you! You damn brat " Said Xbalanque. Bedivere now stood behind Xbalanque and Said " He may be a brat, but he is also my squire "
Bedivere then beheaded Xbalanque with his sword.
Xbalanque and Hunahpu. Both turned into dust.
" We did it " said Jacob.
" We sure did, but what do we do, with the forest fire? " Said Lucan, but far away. Ariel snapped her fingers. Which made it rain.
" Wow rain. How lucky can we be " Said Lucan, and all Jacob did, was smile.
Bedivere helped Tom get back up on his feet.
Tom looked at Bedivere, and could see that Bedivere was smiling.
Afterwards.
When the group came back to Camelot.
Bedivere gave Tom and Jacob, a long and hard lecture.
The lecture lasted to sunrise.
Meanwhile.
Lug was in the Morrigan's cave, reading another book.
" Camazotz actually beheaded Hunahpu once, and keeps Hunahpu's head as a trophy, but it seem that it was Xbalanque, who was beheaded this time around " Said Lug with a smile.
