The Protectors of Lore chpt.1

“Sir…Reporting in”
A young guardian had entered the tent.
“The Fort..its..its lost”
A dark menacing Grin grew across the man’s face
“Perfect” he replied not look up from his map
“But Sir that fort was are last hope for defence!”
“yes that fort was are last chance..But now we are at a full offence”
“but captn…we’ll be slaughtered”
“Have faith fellow guardian…Were not dead yet” He said with a laugh
The man stood he was a slender brown haired Veteran, A scar could be slightly seen on his arm it was crooked and misshapen. The man walked outside his tent
“Rein u ready to go take back that fort”
“ Hmph…Of course Eragon”
“Gather your men we leave in 1 hour”
Rein nodded and head for a group of soldiers surrounding a blaze fire.
Eragon rested his hand on his blade look at the blue sky
Don’t worry Flameing Ice Wolf...Were coming”
“Sir is there a problem?”
“hmm…oh…um no I’m fine”

Eragon turned and strode away, He needed to plan a War Strategy. The Stars rose in the sky and lit up the lake Eragon stood before
How…How”  Eragon shook his head in frustration
“Its not possible…Flameing ice wolf, SlyWolf…all gone.lost to the Forces of the undead.
Eragon stood gazing into the lake, A shadowed figure stood calm leaning against a tree.
“So is it true?”
Eragon looked down despair filled his body “aye…Its..” Eragon hung his head in sorrow “Its true”
“I was hoping u wouldn’t say that”
The shadow figure departed from the tree
“Reaper?”
“Yea”
“will u help…In the battle”
“hmph”
Reaper disappeared into the shadows of the forest.

The Birds Songs woke the Camp, men stumbled tiredly out of there tents,
“Eragon the Men are ready to move”
“Perfect…Lets go”
Eragon, Magic Rein and a band of thirty foot soldiers departed from the camp.
“Your in charge till we return” Eragon placed his hand on the Guardians shoulder
“lead em well”
“Yes Sir”
Eragon nodded in Satisfaction.
“Move Out!”


The thirty soldiers marched east. Whispers of unease could be heard from the group.
“Sir…These woods..there cursed” Insured a one-eyed man holding a javelin.
Eragon raised his hand to stop the march. The men unsheathed there weapons and prepared for the worst. A Screech was heard about 10 metres South West. Eragon turned to face the Horrifying sound.
“Shades” Magic Rein growled
Eragon looked up at the tree tops a Black robed figure sat crouched over on the branch of a dead pine. Eragon couldn’t help but smile. Eragon raised his sword, The Black hilt and Gold blade shining in the sunlight coming through the trees. The first two shades swooped down at three of the guardians. The first shade was caught Mid-air, one of the guardians swung at its head. His blade sunk into the mud beneath the shade. A Ear piercing Shriek rose from black mist that was once the shade. The second shade plummeted down soaring through a guardians chest, the soul of the man was getting carried off to soon be devoured.
“Ha it won’t get far”
A crackling noise emitted from Eragon’s hand, He punched the air a Electrifying shock launched from his fist, It hit the shade killing it instantly.
Eragon fell to his knee the magic draining him.
“Eragon are you okay?”
“uggh” Eragon stood up shakily “Yes I’m fine”
“Lets keep going”

Two guardians lifted there fallen brethren and hoisted them on there shoulders. Nightfall came, they had reached the farther Edge of the forest.
“Its another three day march till that fort”
“Rein you’ll lead your men around to the flank we’ll sound the horn then u come”
Magic rein nodded in agreement.
Eragon and Rein walked out of there tent a Bonfire raged before them the guardians were hooting and yelling, one of the guardians even through the Shades robes into the fire. A Grin had spread across Eragon’s face. He strode over to a small table covered with bread and sorts. At the far right side sat a Large keg of Drink. Eragon grabbed a large Tankard
“Gather round my fellow fighters, Gather round”
Eragon raised his Drink in the Air
“In 3 days march we shall arrive at the fort, I am devoting this night to are victory over the Evil that now resides there. In Blood, In Pain, In victory we shall win this battle and rightfully claim what is ours now who’s with me!”
All thirty soldiers raised there drinks in the air and let out a menacing war cry.
“You were always good with those speeches”
Eragon let out a laugh as he drank from the tankard.

“I’ll be glad to get out of these woods”
“aye I think we all will”
There had been a lot of talk like this through out the group.
Magic Rein looked uneasy
“something wrong?” Eragon asked
“No..Its just back there when the shades attacked the one u saw…it didn’t attack.”
“ahh...Rein u must learn there is a time for everything and that topic’s time is not now”

They walked for Four more hours,
“Eragon a soldier said he spotted a undead soldier walking about”
“Rein”
“Yes?”
“Take fifteen of the soldiers and scout this area…U spot something hostile u know how to deal with it”
Magic Rein nodded
“We camp here till they return”
Three more Hours passed

“Eragon…any thought on what could’ve happened to the…the..sir look” the soldier pointed to a shadow forming to the south.
Eragon looked up from his studies
“well, well seems undead aren’t as stupid as we thought”
From what Eragon could see It appeared like forty maybe fifty undead soldiers.
“no wonder they couldn’t hold them back”
Eragon looked down at the army his heart sank when he saw the size of the army, He clenched his teeth, A rage began to fill his body.
“Eragon…are u ok?”
“Very much” came low growl
Eragon turned a Fire burned in his eyes so deep some thought they would be burned alive. Eragon unsheathed his blade.
“stay here”
“but…sir you’ll be killed”       For a more dramatic war play the song requim for a dream.
“So be it…if that’s the price I have to pay to take vengeance on those infernal Demons”

Eragon marched towards the army, he turned one last time giving a short wave to the Guardians that risked there lives to get there. Eragon turned and continued to walk at the undead army. He stopped halfway staring at the undead army. The undead started to part a line forming between the armies. The same shade from the day before hovered forward
“So all this time its been you leading this Army the whole time!”
A deep hollow laugh escaped the darkened robes
“Do u truly believe you could even kill a inch of my army”
“Maybe” Eragon called back with a devious smile
The shade hovered back down the line the army becoming one again.
Eragon raised his Golden blade into the air letting out a war cry the lightning landed down on his blade. He ran at the first undead hitting its leg then finishing it off with a down swipe to the head. A larger undead ran at Eragon, Eragon Grabbed its arm and flipped it over his shoulder stomping down on his skull crushing it. He fought through twenty more undead. “sound the horn…u have to”  a breeze brushed Eragon’s face. He knew what had come. Undead parts flew through the air. “Reaper”, Reaper with in two minutes had cut through ten soldiers
“What…Thought I’d let u have all the fun”
“U have good timing that’s for sure”
“Ready to slay some undead”

Eragon nodded.

They both ran at the army, A few had began to retreat and run away, Eragon grabbed the shoulder of one of the fleeing undead sending his sword through its chest, Reaper leaped ten feet in the air bringing his blades down on its head. Eragon’s heart was pounding in his chest. “sound the alarm…u need to” Eragon reached for a Black Horn at his belt.
The Horn let out a bellow so loud Birds fled from the tall grass around them. The Soldiers back at the camp had expected this and instantly charged forward. Eragon turned a feeling of relief came over him. He ran at another undead blocking a shot to the head from its axe. He placed his hand a inch from the skeletons chest a electric blast wrecking its body then leaping to three other undead destroying them. The fifteen guardians he called for arrived mowing down the undead. More then twenty undead still remained. Eragon was fighting a undead when it burst into flames and crumbled…Magic Rein stood there his hand raised and the patrol group behind him. They all fought bravely killing all in there path. The plan had worked they had the undead trapped it had become a slaughter house for Eragon and them now.

Eragon stood on top of a pile of bones and skulls a brave undead charged him he hit the skeleton’s hand making it drop its sword.
“hmph” Eragon brought down his blade on its skull cracking it.
Eragon stood, sweat on his brow…He felt something in the air…It was burning actually…it lasted like this for two minutes then it became deathly cold.
How…How…He escaped” Relief passed over Eragon
Flameing Ice Wolf and SlyWolf walked unto the battle field.
“Glad of you to join us”
They all let out a nervous but thankful laugh. Flame had his hand out stretched a flame rested a inch above his palm.
A evil smile crossed flames face.
“Eragon”
“yea?”
“I….have…FURY!!!”
Flame launched a flame wave at four of the undead burning them un-alive. He ran at one stabbing his blade into the undead he spun around hitting another snapping it in two. He leaped into the air doing a back flip landing behind another bringing his sword down on another. Sly ran at the undead slicing them down one by one. He jumped in the air cutting the head right off one of the undead giants.





            All the undead lay on the ground in bits and pieces all of them dead. Only eight of the men had died and eleven had minor injuries.
“Eragon…is it over?”
“aye…its ov” a blast of dark energy hit Eragon in the chest knocking him back.
The shade hovered above the ground.
“its time Eragon…show them why u bear that scar on your arm”
“Eragon what is he talking about” Rein questioned
Eragon grabbed his right arm and took the armour off a crooked and rigged scar took up most of his for arm.
“Aye shade…Its time u died”
A hollow laugh covered the battle field
The shade launched another dark blast at him, Eragon knocked it away easily with a flick of this wrist.
“I’m not as weak as before”
“I realized that years ago Eragon…I’m not one to take on my enemies with out knowing there weaknesses”
“is that so…ha you’ll die by my blade u fool” Eragon snapped back
Eragon ran at the shade bringing his blade down on it, it faded like mist, Eragon looked around shocked.
“missed me” the Shade said mockingly
Eragon turned the shade wielded a dark blade. Eragon felt a sickening cold feeling in his stomach. He gazed down…afraid to do so…a dark blade was in his stomach
“No…” Eragon slid down to land on his knees
The shade looked down at him.
“fool u thought u could kill me” a smile could be seen from the cowl of his hood
“I’m no fool…I AM ERAGON SHADE SLAYER!!!!!!!” He stood up and lunged his blade through the shade’s heart. The shade now rested on the ground. EragonShadeSlayer raised his blade in to the air…bringing it down on the Shade’s head.
“now its over” Eragon said to his fellow fighters
He looked down the ground looked soft like a feathered quilt. He could feel it his energy was draining…he was dyeing…he collapsed hitting the bone covered ground.
“No!” Flameing ice wolf’s voice was faint
“Rein…come Heal him” Reaper shouted
Four figures were visible but faint. The one’s hand was glowing with blue light…after that Eragon went unconscious.


            Eragon woke up in a large bed in a small room.
“look who decided to wake up” flameing wolf said when he entered the room
“How long…”
“A week…We would have woke u sooner but the inn keeper wouldn’t allow it”
Reaper sly and Rein all followed after Ice Wolf.
“Were all glad your okay”
“I’m glad I’m okay…I honestly thought…I was gonna die” Eragon gasped
“Reaper’s quick thinking is what saved you that and Rein’s healing powers” Slywolf informed
“ Did we get the Fort back?” Eragon asked
“Yes…Me and reaper brought u back while Rein and Sly marched forward to make an outpost at the fort”
“hmm…Good” Eragon whispered

three weeks later


EragonShadeSlayer, Flameing Ice Wolf, SlyWolf, Reaper, Magic Rein and twenty eight of Lore’s finest marched on a city that had been taken over by evil beings. The Five of them looked at each other, Smiles spread across there face’s
“Just like old times?” they all said at the same time.
The Five laughed and started running at the city.
