LU 263 - Kearly 2

I woke up early this morning, almost anxious yet still determined, I knew what I had to do, I knew what I was going to do. I wasted no time in gathering my troops together and making last minute preparations, making sure everyone was well equiped and prepared for the bloodshed that was about to occur. Once I felt eveyone was as ready as we would ever be we began our trek toward the battlefield that would change the course of history forever.

The walk there was silent, tensions were high, we knew it would not be an easy battle and we knew what we were going up against. It would be nearly impossible to be entusiastic about what was about to happen. However deep down I could still feel a sense of determination coming from each and every member of the team. None of us were going to give up on this one easily. It was a long walk but it seemed to pass faster than I would have hoped, arriving on the battlefield I noticed that everyone of the other side was already there and ready for this war.

Vice was already there and I could not wait for the opportunity to kill them. It was in these moments that I realized Vice had never even crossed me, was I just wrapped into this? Was this Frezz's whole goal? To set me up to fight a lost battle? I knew I had to push those thoughts out of my head, this was for the people who did not deserve to live under careless, selfish, rulers who had lied to everyone and had horrible pasts. This was the moment on this day that all of that would change.

After a short speach from Vice, the battle had started. Pressing forward with my troops and showing no fear we ran into the enemies at full force knowing there was no turning back now. Chaos. Chaos was everywhere. Cries could be heard from people getting hit with weapons, the clashing of steel, yet somehow in all of this I still sensed a sort of silence for no particular reason. Somehow in all the chaos silence still had a presence.

The battle continued on and out the corner of my eye I spotted my best friend, Vertsuhko, Flying through the air like a hawk, flying down and striking all of the enemies. I saw many unconsiouse bodies, all caused by him. I felt a sort of proudness for his accomplishments, through all of this I was presumed to be the "leader" of the group but he was proving that he was stronger than almost everyone on the battlefield.

It seemed the battle was going good until I heard a sound so loud and so unmistakeable, the wither. Flying into the air it seemed to take an ineterest in me as if It knew that I was a large reason that any of this was happening right now. Sending its skulls down on me I continued fighting, more people were falling to the ground by the minute. Looking around I saw nearly all of my troops still standing and bravely fighting. Just as things seemed to be going well for us I noticed another winged creature flying into battle.

He was definately *not* here at the start of the battle and he was definately *not* on our side. Catching a couple more glances at it I noticed it to be Katie, one of the others that was at the bar on that fateful day that Frezz recruited me. Just as they showed up things began to turn bad for us.

Our strongest member and my best friend was knocked out of the air by that foul beast. I could tell that he would not die nor get knocked out by this, He was too strong for that. However he would definately be injured enough so that he could not continue fighing. I screamed in agony at this, but I would not let this stop me. I had to keep going if anything in honor of his effort in this battle.

As the numbers continued to dwindle I continued fighting, only two remained on their side but they were not going down easily. It was almost a stalemate. We couldn't kill them but it seemed they couldn't kill us either. It went on like this for a while until one of our newest recruits, a man named Jorge, finally struck down the final opponent.

It was a somber moment. No cheers could be heard but the absense of noise was promenant. I met up with Vert and Ophello after the fight and we noticed Vice and Space standing up from the fight clearly wounded and weaker than us. We walked up to them and Vice seemed almost confused.

*"W-what happened?"*

*"You lost, Vice."*

They seemed in denial of the whole thing, even trying to take up a second gentlemen's fight, a simple 2v2. I accepted and we won this fight with relative ease. This seemed to be the moment that the loss really sunk in for Vice and Space and they realized their time of ruling was over. They wanted to just walk away but I didnt want to let them.

I told space that I could just kill him right there, but I knew it would not be a good look for me as the new leader of Spawn. So I held back, but I swore that this would be the last time I let Space walk away. He said he would leave with his nation and not bother me, but I knew that this wasn't true. Space had only spewed lies out the entire time I had known him. I knew I would have to begin preparing for another battle. I began my walk to my new town. Vert and Ophello by my side.
