Brothers Flint - Part 5

I am still in this abandoned house and I am waiting for the Flint Brothers to leave that city with the nobleman to be captured and sent to Fiona for interrogation and torture, if it the case, to gave us the answer we need it the most. "How long is this kidnapping going to take?" I wonder while I am looking at the entrance of the city which is protected by very high walls and guards that defend the main entrances or stand at the sentinels of that wall. "I hope those two didn't encounter troubles." I thought to myself looking at those guards who are starting to enter the city, and I really hope that is just a change of guards.

I prepare my magic wand for any danger that may occur. I notice that two knights have entered the city and have not returned to their post, and this is starting to scare me. If the guards enter the fortified city, it means that an intruder has invaded their city, and the only people who have done this are the Flint Brothers ... But I hope it's not them, but someone else.

***

Brothers Flint are running in the city while both of them are getting chased by nine guards armed with swords, shields and one maniac guards who are throwing spears at them, but they completely miss and hit other stuff like animals, expensive vases, and even a hooker who was waiting for someone to give her money. For Louis's case it ain't so bad running and dodging throwable attacks, but in Lucian case, who is the muscular one, is carrying a woman who is the most responsible for the enemy General death, and who stunned by one of Louis spells. The guards think all three of them are responsible and the one who controls the guards he was ordered them to kill Louis and Lucian because those two don't deserve to be in a cell and live behind the bars until Death will tear them apart.

"How much it will take until she becomes alive?" asks Lucian to Louis after he launched a shotgun spell to a guard who approached Lucian and was about to give him a backstab with his dagger, but now the guard is dead with his head smashed in a million pieces.

"Three hours," says Louis to his brother while both of them are jumping over the dance and entering a yard full of sheep.

They both run among the sheep, I set them aside so that they can pass because there were about fifty sheep there, and the yard is very small. A few spears were ready to strike them as they crawled among those sheep, but Louis and Lucian used those sheep as a shield to stop the spears from coming at them. Louis and Lucian escape the yard filled with alive sheep and now with dead ships or injured, they are jumping the fence, and then both of them continue to run in the direction they came from. While they were running, they noticed a few innocent citizens who saw Lucian and Louis running through the city and being pursued by nervous guards. Some of the citizens, who were on the floors of a building throw flower pots, chairs, or arrows at Lucian and Louis, but the cup, as if by a miracle, escapes without major injuries, just minor ones like a scratch to the face that Louis won when the arrow of one almost gave him his right ear, or in Lucian's case a very shaky chair that broke his back, but the wound this chair caused him is a minor one.

These two brothers survive the attack of the guards, the throwing of the damaged objects of the citizens, and they also face a major danger, royal soldiers who ride horses and come with axes and swords to them. Louis immediately pulls out his wand and immediately uses the "T.N.T" spell on the first rider to tear him to pieces and the horse they were riding. Pieces of it and this blood landed on the Flint Brothers as they passed through the body of that knight. Then two similar soldiers appear, but they ride quite close to each other, here Louis launches again the spell "T.N.T." and the two knights explode because the spell exploded in the middle of the two, and the horses exploded. A few pieces of that meat landed on the brothers carrying the assassin and fleeing to the entrance they used to enter this city.

They pass through this exit with great success and head towards the abandoned building, and as they run towards the abandoned building they are pursued by royal guards and knights armed with swords or shooting arrows at them.

I see Lucian and Louis leave the fortified city and head to the abandoned house where I am while they are being chased by royal soldiers. I immediately take the attack position after I was in the corner of the attic of the house because I had to do something. After all, I didn't want to pee on myself. I point the wand at the first soldier who is dangerously close to the two of them and cast the spell "Il mare Eterno Nella mia anima" on that knight. Out of my wand comes a stone with an astonishing speed that easily penetrates his chest armour. Then I cast this spell once more, but this time I cast it at a scoundrel who was ready to throw a poisonous arrow, and this thrown stone penetrates the head of that scoundrel, but also the colleague behind him. Normally this image should be terrifying, but when you are at war, you are forced to put human instincts aside and use war instincts because that is the only way you can survive in wars like these.

I saw three knights who are riding horses and coming very close to Louis and Lucian. I aimed my wand at one and I shoot the spell "T.N.T." resulting in the explosion of a knight and a horse who was just doing their duty as soldiers. I point the wand at other enemy knights and launch a second "T.N.T." spell that causes the enemy who was hit to fly off the horse and land with his body scattered on the ground, and his horse to flee back to the stables where he came from, and with that horse, the third one left. The knight was trying to calm that horse, but Louis launched a "Super Shot" spell on that knight, who penetrated his neck uncovered and sent him to the world of the dead. The body of the third knight falls on the path he used to catch Louis and Lucian.

Brothers Flint are almost there, they were just a few steps from the door and entering the house, but something bad has happened, an arrow, who was shot from some distance has hit Lucian's legs and make him fall on the ground.

"NOOO!" screams Louis taking his wand and aiming at the incoming enemy knights.

"Lucian!" I yelled to the guy who has called down and dropped the woman from his hands.

I run to the stairs leading to the ground floor, and when I get there, I quickly open the door and run to Lucian to check the foot wound. Fortunately, it could still move, and the arrow that had hit it did not contain the poison that cancels the magician's healing, but the bad part is that it can't move. I quickly run to that leg, pull the arrow out as loud and ruthless from Lucian's foot, and ignore his cruel scream and point both hands at the wound he has on his leg. In a few seconds, the wound is starting to disappear, and then, when the wounds have been extincted from Lucian's leg, I am looking at Louis and I am seeing him being surrounded by three knights who are aiming their swords at him.

"You are arrested, you assassin!" yelled one guard at Louis.

"Louis!" I yelled at him and making one of those guards turning around at me and jumping with his sword at me.

When I thought that guard was about to kill me, something else has happened, something I did not have anticipated, a giant fireball has hit that guard and making him turn into ashes. The other two knights have seen the giant fireball, and they have decided to run from me because they think the giant fireball comes from me, but it did not come from me, but someone else. I took a look at my back and I am seeing a carriage that is coming to us, and in that carriage, which was almost thirty meters away, I am seeing a guy who threw that giant fireball and who was about to throw another one. Just... Who is this guy? Why he did save me?

I notice that the rest of the knights who were following us are starting to return to their base or their city, and the Flint Brothers and I are entering the abandoned house and starting to practice healing Louis and Lucian, they still had some wounds, they were not so serious, but a wound is a wound. As long as I heal those wounds, Louis asks me.

"Do you know who is that person?"

"No," I say to Louis while I am healing his wounds at the hands. "Is it on our side?"

„Most likely," says Lucian who is feeling better and looking at the window. "Check outside."

When I have finished healing Louis's wounds, I and him are looking at the windows and we saw that unknown warrior with a phoenix mask burning the entire city by himself, and on his left side is another unknown person, who is unmasked and that warrior is one with ice hands, turning around and she is coming at our direction. He enters the house and asked us to come outside. We follow his orders and goes outside. It looks like these guys are on our side after all.
