The Time to Strike The Darkness Part 2

"Well, you don't have to worry about that. Come on I going to get you out of here."

Back to where Peter and the others are at.

"What happens?"

"It's alright Prince Hai."

"I see. What time is it?"

"I think it 7:39 am."

"I see. Morning about to come upon the surface."

Prince Hai took the watch from one of his attendants and him hoping to check it again and see what time they should strike.

"Look, Peter, we need to strike at the Black Raven."

"When?"

"Today, At high noon."

"Why that time?"

"That when the Black Raven over the sea and that when we can strike it with all the forces we got."

"Peter, Byron not here and it seems like he is not here neither," Willow said

"Then what should we do?"

"Don't worry about Byron he is fine but Peter you need to face off against the emperor."

"We must have planned this ahead of time."

"Yes, I and Byron were planning of a way to make sure that nobody will have to die really but I warn him that this will won't end well and it will be a blood bath but Byron know that risk and he must have something up his sleeve but he can't face the emperor as you can."

"Like I can."

"Yes, you do have heavenly magic, and that is the only way to defeat him."

"I see. So Prince Hai how many people do we got?"

"Well, do to a strange aura I sense from the east of here. My guess is probably a few three hundred soldiers."

"What?" Willow said

"What wrong with that?"

"Well if that strange aura that he senses is the one the Dark Lords then we might meet more than 5,000 soldiers."

"That three times the soldiers we have but we can make it work."

"How Peter?"

"That easy, just leave everything to me."

Peter walk away and Willow was worried about what choice he just made might lead them to their doom.

"How you going to make that happen?"

"Simple. I just going to go with the flow."

"The flow? That won't help when people are dying."

"It a battle people will die. I am sorry I am not that powerful enough to save everyone here but I must work with the people I have here and I will try my best to protect them to the best of my ability besides I have been around the Philock fraction and they were good at war tactics. So watch."

"Okay."

Prince Hai had gotten the seven-country to his side and they agree but they ask why they should help the surface.

In the west, the two countries had made a conference to meet with prince Hai.

"Prince Hai, we know that you want to save them up on the surface and I agree but why do I need to send the small amount of man that I have to help them that don't do anything for us." King Harris said

King Harris is the king of the kingdom in the west known as Harrington.

"I must agree too but what will we gain from that." King Sexton said

King Sexton is the kingdom of Mujin.

"I know but what will we give from the world if we don't help it."

"Then what do you have in mind?" King Sexton asks.

"Peter believes that we can win with three hundred soldiers and I believe in him because he defeat the ancient dragon Slument."

"He killed Slument."

"Yes, Kingdom of the west and south."

"How is that possible?" King June said

"Yes, and how can we believe it? A normal human that has powers to defeat the guardian of this world." King Irish. King Irish is a woman but she must act as king due to jealousy among men. Only the kings of each country knew of this.

"Irish, How you been?"

"I been good but answer my question."

"Yeah I know but he is not a normal man but he is blessed by goddesses."

"A goddesses. I thought the goddesses race was gone."

"You know that they still bless twelve good heart warriors who can lead us out of despair and bring balance back to all the comic worlds."

"I see but how can you prove it?"

"I show you then."

Prince Hai shows them the power of what Peter has due to his training right now. He has recorded him and he was showing that to the other kings and they were amazed by what they are seeing.

"He punches is like thunder striking down upon the ground." King Harris said

"Yes, I know but he can do more than that."

"Prince Hai where is your father right now."

"Well about that. My father has been gone and he hasn't returned for days."

"He went to the surface the last time I talk to him." King Sexton said

"But why would he go up to the surface of where war is?" King June ask

"Why do you keep questioning everything?" King Sexton said

"I question everything because it important to know what I getting myself into before sending my small amount of man to die for the surface."

"I know your pain and history with the four kingdoms but this time it is different." Prince Hai said

"But how can I be sure that this man can be the one to save us."

"Have faith in him. I was nervous too but I soon start to believe in him little by little."

"Okay, then I will have faith in him too." King Irish said

"Me too." King Harris said

"I send my man too." King Sexton said

"King June, your answer."

King June was worried but he must face the wound that he suffered in the great four kingdom

war.

"Fine, I send my a to your aid."

It was set and Prince Hai gave Peter the word that he will have three hundred men behind him and he must give them the plan.

Peter told them that they will strike at high noon to the sea and start to attack when Byron bring down the Black Raven to them but they didn't know was that it was clouded coming over the sun.

"I wonder if they going to attack me. I hope they do it soon because I'm tired of waiting for them." In the faraway of the dark territory. The Kid was gathering Orcs by his side.

Back to where the Black Raven is at and the sun is still shining brightly.

"We need to find a way to bring down the Black Raven," Byron said

"How are we going to do that?" Mayvel said

"I don't know but they counting on us to bring it down over the sea."

"I know away." Valentine said

"And which way is that mother."

"The basement."

"The basement?"

"Yes, the basement holds a core to the Black Raven but that's where the nobles live."

"The nobles live down there but I didn't say anything about what they did to them."

"What do they do to them?"

"They use them as livestock for the core."

"What?"

"It's bad but they deserve it," Vicky said

"No deserve that even if they were misguided by their foolish no ways."

"You may be right but they deserve it for hurting others down."

"Vicky, don't show angry if you do that will bring company we don't want." Valentine said

Vicky was crying and she was trying to control her breathing and stay calm and positive and Valentine hug her close.

"We must get back to the chamber because they going to check it so we must be there before they check it."

"But mom."

"It will be okay."

"Okay, we going to the basement."

They separate and Valentine and Vicky were gongs to the chamber and the cloaks were heading there a way to her chamber and she must be in there before they check it.

"We're almost there."

They enter the chamber in the nick of time and the cloaks came in.

Byron and Mayvel were going to the basement and what they smelled on the Black Raven was burning Byron's eyes and he was trying to hold his nose but it didn't do anything.

"What is this scent?"

"It smells like death."

"I know Mayvel but we have to go down there."

It was so creepy and it was so dark. They walk down the steps they grab the torch on the wall and they kept on walking down the steps.

"We need to get down there before noon. If not then we lose this war before it even started."

"I know but this is far from our understanding when we facing against curses."

"Yeah, but I must make such that bastard doesn't have his way never again."

Back to where the cloaks are at.

"How you been today?"

One of the cloaks had on a hood and he was wearing all black and he was holding a long sword and it was covered in blood and his eyes seem empty and fill with despair but he had a smile.

"I have been fine."

"That good."

"What do you mean by that?"

"I mean. That there have been some very difficult people down in the basement that need to be punished for their sin against the people below and their judgment is foreseen by their actions."

"I see."

"If you worry about them my lady then I can have them come to you."

Valentine didn't say anything and she was worried about what he was discussing about the basement.

"Come then and I show you. My lady."

The cloak had got her hand and was taking her to where he had in slave the noble at.

"Mistress, I don't want to go."

"Vicky, it is okay."

Vicky was shaking and she was holding her own hands because if she gets seen touching her then she will be punished.

"She seems so nerves."

"Why can't I stop shaking while this monster is in front of me."

"Slave! Stop shaking."

"O no, I going to be punished again." Vicky was sweating and she had to stop shaking but she couldn't stop shaking. "I need to control myself. Control me. Stop it right now." Vicky close her eyes and she images something and she then felt a warm feeling.

A hand had reached out to her and she then calm down.

"Are you ready to go Vicky?"

"Yes ma'am."

They kept on going to the basement and they hoped to see what is waiting for them down the basement.

Back to where Byron and Mayvel are at.

"This basement must be down here deep."

"Wait, Byron."

"What is it?"

Mayvel heard a click.

"Yeah, I hear it too."

They walk down the steps and then there were two ways. The left was dark and the right was filled with torches. Byron was confused about what path was the right one and how is it that this is suspicious.

"I wonder what is that I am feeling right now."

Byron's body was shaking and felt with heavyweight on his shoulders and was trying to make sure that he doesn't drop on the ground from such pressure.

They decided to go to the right path to where all the light is at and then when they went to the right path. The cloak, Valentine, and Vicky had entered the basement entrance, and they

was walking down the stairs but the cloak knew a shortcut and they took that and they were near the two pathways down the stairs.

"What is this feeling of a heavyweight on my shoulders."

Valentine look behind her and saw that Vicky was having a hard time staying up and trying to keep her cool but she is struggling to stay up.

They took the left path where there is straight darkness and what Valentine saw was just cruelty.

Back to where Peter and the others are at.

They were getting ready and they had to send their forces to the city before 10:50. So they can get in position and wait on Kid's army.

King Irish wanted to talk to Peter about something that involve him.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"I want to know something about you."

"And what is that?"

"It's about your power."

"My Power? Why do you want to know that?"

"Because I worry about this whole thing about 300 soldiers versus more than 5,000 soldiers."

"I know but it's not your job to worry about it. Only I can worry about it."

"But having all those worries on your shoulders will only bring you down."

"It nothing."

Irish grab his face and look into his eyes and he look into her eyes and he was looking at her lime green color eyes and how it seem like a large grassland traveling through the wind on a sunny day.

"Your eyes are beautiful."

"Thanks."

"This is crazy. Why is the world isn't so beautiful like your eyes."

"It hard to explain that in worlds."

"Why is it so hard?"

"Because the world is just so dividing and filled with such hate. People forgot about love but the universe was never built on love. It builds upon chaos. People fighting over land and food that they don't even look at another way to live in peace."

"So how did you get to the Underground Temple?"

"I got down here because of the cruelty of man."

"So you were hurt badly by those who you put your trust in."

"Yes, but I want to believe that someone out there who can bring the peace."

"Peace is a journey for those who calm that there is peace everywhere you go but in reality they're nothing more but heartache and cruelty because people may seem like they nice but that only because they won't respect what they haven't earned. Trust me I know."

"You must have been alone for a long time."

"Yeah. People only be nice to me because they believe that I would change the world."

"You can but only you can make that happen. Nobody else."

"I see."

Peter smiled and her eyes were so amazing that he sheer a tear down his face and she rub it off his cheek. Peter walk out and he had to do this not for anyone else but for himself and help those who had been through pain and heartache.

The soldiers had moved underneath the tunnels and they went to get ready before the time to fight to come and they went underneath the city tunnels.

They travel into five groups and they had divided into tunnels a few of had been divided into strong fighters in the back and the average soldier is in the front.

"We need to make such that nobody scare." King June said

"I know that you were in the four great kingdoms war."

"What about it Prince Hai?"

"I was wondering because I heard that you were leading the battle against the Dark Lords with the Dwarfs and Giants."

"Yeah, but listen. Don't ask me about the war again."

"I'm sorry."

It brought back some memory of what was happening during the war and there was a figure holding a black blade that can cut through the hardest metal and cut through the earth.

He shakes a little bit but he holds back his shakes and he walks away from prince Hai.

Prince Hai was looking into his eyes and see that there was a pain in his mind.

"Prince Hai, where are you going?" Mayvel ask

"Well, I was just making sure that everyone that communication with each other."

"I see. So please make sure that we are safe then."

"Don't worry about that. I make sure that you guys are alright."

Prince Hai smiled and Mayvel went to Peter and Yolanda.

"You stay here Yolanda and keep an eye on Maggie and Prince Hai too."

"Okay, but make it back okay."

"Don't worry. I will be back."

"Make sure that you came back here. I hate to lose anyone else."

"Yolanda, you barely know me."

"I know but I want to know more about you and I got nowhere else to go. you have to come back or else I will be lonely."

Yolanda grabs Peter's hand and with a tear coming down her eye her emotion shows that Peter needs to return to her.

Peter left and he smiled back at her and he went to go and strike the darkness.
