Chapter 15: "Siege"

The day had finally come, William asked Evan if he could keep everyone in the village safe till he and the others had returned. "You can count on me brother," said Evan.

Evan had grown in skill since he was taken on by Thomas as a student, he even found out that his attribute was Fire, William smiled, Joy was not up for this one bit, knowing that William and the others were going to face danger head-on after they said their goodbyes. " it's time for us to go now, we will be back soon," said William.

Joy watched them till she couldn't see them anymore she thought to herself, I didn't know a day like this would come, seeing them leave, maybe I did but I never wanted to accept it but now, with tears running down her cheeks she whispered. "come back to me safe," In the city.

The presence of foot soldiers had increased they were abusing and interrogating the people, someone had told one of the soldiers that Phillip was seen talking to the young boy in the cloak so they went for him, "old man, we have reasons to believe that you know who the rebels are," said Senior Officer Marvin, " I don't know anything and if I did I wouldn't tell you a thing," said Phillip.

"Is that so? Well, I think you need a little persuading, teach this old man what it means to defy the East Kingdom," said Senior Officer Marvin to the soldiers that were there with him, They started to beat Phillip, "ok that's enough, so old man what were you saying earlier?" asked Senior Officer Marvin.

"You swine, stop wasting your time, you won't achieve anything here so go to hell," said Phillip, " you foolish old man you will die here," said Senior Officer Marvin, so he pulled out his sword to run him through then suddenly William appeared surprisingly and struck the officer straight into a heap of rubble.

The other soldiers and the people were astonished, William then turned to Phillip and smiled "hey Phillip," he was surprised that he was saved by this person, Phillip didn't realize it was the kid who gave him some spare change a while back, William then helped him up," take a seat here," said William.

" I have heard this voice before," thought Phillip, he then figured it out, " it's you," said Phillip, "Who the hell do you think you are?" asked one of the soldiers, three of them charged towards William, he then ran towards them, he hits swords with the one on the left and used Air Slash to push him away, then he used Water Boost to send the other two soldiers flying, all who saw this were astonished, "who is that?", "he is strong," said the onlookers.

Then more soldiers charged towards William, then the wind picked up, "you're not going to have all the fun here, Cyclone," said Zeph.

They were all blown away, "Show off," said William, He then made his way back to Phillip, "I'm sorry I didn't come sooner, here I brought something for you," said William, "there are many more soldiers coming," said Phillip, "don't worry my friends and I will take care of them just rest here and take it easy," William said with a smile.

Another set of soldiers was heading over to where they were, then Rose said " Hollow Earth," and the soldiers that here heading towards them were swallowed up into a pit, "Who are you? asked Phillip, "I am Prince William, son of King Cresswell," said William, Phillip was surprised he was also in disbelief, William then smiles and that's when it hit Phillip.

"He does resemble the king, this must be some type of miracle, the King's son is alive," thought Phillip, he was overwhelmed with joy, he started to cry, he got up and shouted out " Prince William, son of King Cresswell!" he then bowed before him, the onlookers we all astonished.
