Chapter 6 . Bandits.. Attack

Star took off to find her horse Chaos , a huge white stallion . Tusbaki trailed behind her like a lost puppy. He wanted to see her fight but he doesn't know if he can handle the blood and gore . While pondering on this a voice filled his ears " go inform the other captains of what is going to happen " the voice was both strong and resolute . Tusbaki gave it a thought and decided it was probably best if he left . Saluting Star he answered " yes!!! Captain..." The two parted ways.

Star straddling the white stallion rode at the speed of light . The cool summer air blew her ribbons that tied her hair back causing the breeze to fall on her neck. The cool night could still not put out the fire within star . She was excited, this is what she was trained for , what she did since she was little. As she rode along on the dirt path their was a light glow that filled her eyes. ' A campfire .... bingo!!' . Slowing down her pace she snuck around the back of the camp , eased off her horse and slithered up a tree like a snake . In the camp below her they were five scruffy looking old men. Each equipped with a beard that hung down to their stomachs and tattered clothes that had not been washed in three years. One of the five spoke in a rough and sharp voice " tomorrow night we strike ..... the captains should not be there . We will sneak into the castle and take out that damn prince once and for all !" The other four bandits cheered and gave toast to the mans words not at all Suspecting that they were being watched by a deadly killer .

At the castle Tusbaki ran around like a headless fly . Straight to Zen's room he flew . When he got there he got nervous. ' what if he wants to help out .... captain will kill me if goes to her' Sensing a person at the door Zen got up to check it out . Thinking someone was stalking him he slung the door open and looked down just to see a petrified Tusbaki with a gaping mouth. " uh... what are you doing Tusbaki !! Where's Captain Yu???" Trying hard to straighten his self up from the small heart attack he just had ,Tusbaki patted his chest a few times before saluting and answering " Captain Yu wants to inform all other captains of a possible bandit attack on crown prince Ren . He has went their his self to check out the situation but he still wishes for you to watch over the prince in his absence ". Zen noticed Tusbaki looking at the floor and refusing to have direct eye contact. Taking note of this he decided he did not want to scare him any more so he was going to go with whatever Captain Yu had in mind . " I will go inform the other captains and personally see to the princes safety ." Feeling a huge weight lift off his shoulders Tusbaki sounded a little sigh and left Zen's room. Tusbaki is star's personal assistant. He knows everything about her including her gender which she keeps hidden with her real name . Star and Tusbaki were friends for a very long time and because of their friendship he pledged his life to her. Thinking about this Tusbaki knows Star goes out of her way for him and treats him well but she was cold as ice .... maybe that was one of the things he liked about her .

Back at the bandit hideout Star had listen to the five old men shout and holler like a bunch of hooligans. Degrading the prince with all the words their arsenal could hold. A quite smile formed on Star's lips as her Murderous arua ragged inside of her. She did not like hearing people degrade others . It made her absolutely Infuriated. Grabbing the hilt of her sword she tried to calm herself down. She wanted to wait for just the right time to see their scared and surprised faces laced with terror . Star shuddered in excitement just thinking about their faces. ' calm down .... calm down' repeating this to herself she took a deep breath and settled down. The bandits was grouping up around the fire to call it a night . Star jumped down from the branch and landed in front of the fire . The light casted long shadows on her masked face. When the bandits shot up the first thing they saw was her soft red lips and her smooth skin. Her long robes fluttered in the wind . With a bland look on her face she unsheathed her sword and attacked.
