Chapter 2 - An Ambush from a Horde of... Monsters?

People running away and the growling sound start louder. I unsheath my sword and ready to defend.

Creature with white fur and as tall as human swing it's claw at my direction and I counter it with my scabbard and stabbed it with my sword. The creature didn't budged then try to bare its teeth. I try to kick it's knee from the side and the creature distract a bit. It was taken aback and groans.

'Well, that's a bit odd... How come a stab not hurt for you but a kick make you groan? Did it hurt your pride, being kick by a human?'

Behind it I heard another growl came out of the bush. Their eyes as red as flame.

At that moment I know that I can't handle it alone. Then I scream my order.

"Knights! Brace your self! They're not monsters! They're just bears! Defend the land! For your honor!"

"FOR THE LORD!" as my knights scream and march with me, charge to the front and the people hide savely behind us.

These bears are not easy to subsdue. They are really tought not like the average bear and really agressive. Even poison arrow doesn't effect much. Our fight would seems takes quite long if not for the vine that magically restrain those bears and stop their movement.

As I looked behind me, the Head Magician Tower waves his hand to make those vines with his spell. His wand glow on its tip and I almost see something like glowing thin strands that controls the vines coming from the wand.

"Don't think that would lessen your charge! Head Magician." I said it as bitter as I can and start slashing until those crazy creatures subdue.

"I..."he stuttering again, then I scream my order.

"Vice captain! Take his twig and arrest him! Not at his cellar! But at my manor's dungeon!"

"Yes, my lord!"

"Oh! and take that tiny little vial of him too."

My vice captain arrest him and do body check, but could not find anything.

"My lord there is nothing I can retrieved from him."

"What do you mean nothing?"

The head magician trying to avoid my eye sight.

"Hand it over!" I glare at him as I said it with my palm stretch out.

The head magician didn't answer.

So, I try check it my self and I find it. The head magician seems surprised and before his baffled face switch to conciousness, I point at him, then say,

"Don't try to pull a trick! You're caught red handed!"

He raised both of his hand in the air and as I take that vial from him, I order the vice captain again.

"Caught all the magician to be interogated!"
