Agnes Rock

Who are you!?

Agnes P.O.V

All heads turned to a person and then the said lady stood up.

‘Oh crap. I know who she is now.’

I don’t know what came over me but I stood there amazed by the show unfolding before me.

Her name’s Amelita, so beautiful.

How could a beautiful lady like this be born to do these kind of things!?

Not only that, she’s so good at fighting that the soldiers don’t stand a chance. Maybe I can spar with her sometime if I ever get a chance with her.

Oh no!

Someone like this doesn’t know what love is. She can stick an arrow into my head the moment I approach her.

I stood there in the shadows looking at her as she stood up. She walked toward the old man, Master Kaeman and bowed slightly.

“I’m at this country’s service. Nothing can stop me from fulfilling my duties even death.” After saying this she dropped on her knees with her left hand raised up.

Master Kaeman took hold of her hand and wore a bracelet on it.

“This is the bracelet of our queen. Queen Ariadne who is in captive. This is meant to motivate you. Think of this as the freedom awaiting us after getting her out.” Master Kaeman raised her up on her feet.

“For our freedom and the betterment of our country!” He shouted raising his right hand.

“For our freedom and the betterment of our country.” Everyone else shouted after him.

I quickly went away from where I hid. I went away from the camp lands and went as far as the river side to stay for the night. I opened the leather bag I brought from home.

Home!

It saddens me to leave everyone, I must do everything I can to return to everyone. But why do I feel like this is home. I haven’t been stayed here for up to a day but it all feels like I’m born to be here.

I was so engrossed in my thinking I didn’t notice a figure moving toward me. I took my leather bag and stayed away from the moon’s light.

The person walked to the river and it turned out the person is Amelita. She lied at the bank of the river, with her facing up. I watched in the shadows how she closes and opens her eyes. She is so damn beautiful.

I don’t mind doing all I can to make her mine.

Third Person POV

Early in the morning about thirty soldiers were parading the river side. Then they saw Amelita sleeping. It turned out she slept off.

The soldiers surrounded her and pointed spears and swords at her.

“Wake up criminal. We’ve been searching for you.” A soldier shouted.

Amelita woke up and was immediately frightened seeing so many soldiers pointing their weapons at her ready to attack.

She was out-weaponed and outnumbered.

“Surrender you criminal.” Another soldier shouted.

“No. Don’t do that.” A soldier said. The one that spoke is of a higher rank than the others.

“I never knew the said criminal leader with an army of fighters is a woman. A beautiful one in fact.” The soldier with the higher rank licks his lower lips and touched his lower part area smirking. The other soldiers bursts out laughing.

“We’ll have fun then you will take us to Kaeman. I can spare you and maybe make you my w***e. What’d you think boys?”

“I say that’s good.”

“Yeah. She’s damn beautiful.” A soldier retorted.”

“I bet she’s a virgin.” Another retorted.

“Are you sure? Let’s bet.” Some begin bringing out money and began to bet.

“Filthy dogs.” Amelita spat on the floor.

The soldier with the highest rank raised his hand and was about to slap her when a voice cut them off.

“I don’t think that would be a good idea..I mean the slap.”

“And who are you?” He asked.

“That doesn’t matter. What matters is you leave right now. Take your filthy bunch of soldiers out of here.” A man stepped out and it turned out to be Agnes. The night before he couldn’t sleep. He was watching over Amelita. When the day was about to break he was about to sleep when he heard some footsteps. He looked ahead from where he was hiding and saw soldiers approaching Amelita.

He watched them point their weapons at her. He couldn’t hear what they were saying but he stepped out when one raised his hand to slap her.

“You..and you kill him.” The soldier with the highest rank ordered two of the lower ranks. They drew out their swords and approach Agnes.

“Two won’t do.” Agnes rushed them before they could bring up their sword and strike. He punched one in the throat and the other in the gut.

The two dropped dead immediately.

Everyone was surprised.

“What are you waiting for? All of you attack him at once.” All the soldiers ran forward and attacked him.

Amelita stood up and tried to unsheathe a sword from a already dead soldier, but she was caught. The soldier with the highest rank hit her in the jaw, she fell but she used the opportunity to hit his leg making him lose his balance.

When the soldier fell Amelita immediately grabbed a sword and slit his throat.

Amelita breathes hard, she turned her head when she heard a body dropped to the floor.

She stood up and walked up to Agnes slowly holding her sword at full alert.

“Who are you!?”
