The Soldier part one
He knew he was the new guy in the platoon. He was green and could not hide that fact. From the way he swung his sword to the way he held his shield he was green, never had seen combat let alone killed anyone. Tonight though would be a different story. Tonight he would earn their respect, because tonight the enemy was knocking on thier doorstep hungry for blood. The had been at war for years with the Kaddock clan. No one even remembered why they were at war they just were.
He could feel the wind in his fur, it was the middle of summer and rediculously humid. Standing there on the battle line with his kin. He was a wolf and these Kaddock lions were not going to stop him. Sweat was dripping donwn his muzzle. "Fuck it is hot out here." He said quietly. "Whazzat pup? You want to go home to your mothers bossom and hide like a coward?" The old veteran said next to him sarcasticly. He was going to say somthing smart back to the old wolf as he noticed a scar running down his face, past his eye and across his neck. Heshould have died for that wound he thought. "Huh? got bitch in your blood do ya?" The old vetran said howling with laughter. The pup was about to say somthing when the general spoke up. "Barono quit teasing the poor boy. not like he is going to survive this anyway." he chastised the vet. "I am not a boy I am a man sir." the pup spoke up."So the pup found his balls?" the general said quizically. "And who are you exactly?" the general said harshly. "I.. I am Olton son of Oderic son of Ontas." Olton said growing more confidant with every word. " i am here to fight sir, and to kill these Kaddocks." Olton said with confidance. "Well Olton son of Oderic lets hope you do not die then today." the general said with a hint of a smile.
The general was on his horse, thoughts searching for the words to spur his men into winning this battle wich seemed so lopsided. Right now the were outnumbered three to one, and though he knew the worth of his men he was not so sure of what was to come. "Men today we fight a terible evil that has plagued our lands for to long, and for too long we have let it stand. Well no more i say! We shall win this day for our mothers, our brothers, our sisters and our fathers who have fought this enemy before us. Today we will ...." the general suddenly stopped with a puzzled look on his face. the was a spike of pain in his neck. He reached back and felt somthing hard and forigen there. Then grasping it he pulled on it and it slid out and what he saw was an arrow. Good thing hos coif had stopped the arrow or he would have been dead. Bastards though they could fire before he was ready did they, well he was going to kill them all. " Men I will give three gold peices for every head i get today." The gerneral said hatefully.
"CHARGE!!!!"
