Ah, okay...
*Cyan circles the man, then lunges at his leg but quickly stabs at his shoulder before he can react*
English
-
[b]Guldan turns amazingly quickly, and blocks Excalibur with his sword.[/b] "Ah, Arthur. You seem to have a talent...." [b]Time seems to speed up, and Cyarthur is 17, the day before Arthur's birthday. He/she is talking to Guldan.[/b] "I've trained you well, these 6 years, Arthur."
-
Yes, you have and I thank you for that.
-
[b]He laughs.[/b] "Tomorrow, you become a man, Arthur. And with that, you gain the full responsibility as King upon your shoulders. Are you ready?"
-
Yes. I am ready to be king. I have some big plans
-
"I'm sure you do...." [b]Time skips forward again, and it is Arthur's first day as king. Many had come to the castle, to greet him, and Arthur spoke to every one of them. By the end of the day, he was sweating. But before he could get any rest, a man runs into the castle.[/b] "P-please, my king! My wife is about to be hung... she is innocent! She did not kill the child! Please...."
-
Woah, woah. What's going on. Slow down. Breathe, breathe. Tell me all of it.
-
"Th-they are accusing m-my wife of m-murdering our b-baby...." [b]Tears begin rolling down the man's face. Outside the castle, a woman is about to be hung.[/b]
-
Well let's go outside and make sense of this. *Cyan makes her way out of the castle*
-
[b]The townsmen are yelling at the woman, who is crying. The man seems unable to handle it, and runs up to the woman, attempting to calm her down.[/b]
-
Alright, calm down! Does anyone have any evidence against her?
-
"She was found with a bloody knife in her child's bedroom!" [b]One man shouts out.[/b] "P-please, your highness... I was framed... a man came in while I was asleep... put a knife in my hand after using it against my b-baby...." [b]The woman cries out.[/b]
-
And... You knew it was a guy... When you were sleeping.
-
[b]The woman's eyes widen, and the man runs up to Cyarthur, holding a knife up to his throat.[/b]
-
*Cyan grabs the man's arm and twists it behind him, making him drop the knife* Big mistake. The execution will commence and this man is sentenced to an indefinite period in prison for attempted murder.
-
[b]The woman laughs maniacally.[/b] "This boy is smarter than he looks!" [b]She yells out, before a loud cracking is heard as her neck snaps by the rope. The man is dragged away by three men, towards the prison. The townsmen seem happy with Cyarthur's judgement. Time skips forward, and Cyarthur is 24, sitting in the throne room. 6 years of happiness, and Arthur is already being celebrated as the greatest king of the lands. A man in full battle armor kneels before Cyarthur.[/b] "My brother... I must say, I am in disagreement with your latest decision to allow the building's demolition...."
-
Why do you say that?
-
"Brother, the building was full with valuables! We could've used it for a base for the army, or such... I've been in disagreement with many of your latest decisions, actually, and many in your army stand by me."
-
The building was rotted and frail, we cannot afford to rebuild it anew. I apologize if you disagree with my decisions, however running a kingdom is harder than you expect
-
[b]The man growls.[/b] "Then, Arthur, how about handing the position to your big brother?"
-
Oh, no. Look, it is difficult, but the one deemed worthy is chosen to rule it. I'm not sure what you would do if you ruled.
-
"Too bad, brother. War has begun." [b]Outside the castle, the two halves of King Arthur's army clash.[/b]
-
Why must you do this? *Cyan is really pissed off about this guy and rises*
-
[spoiler]He's Arthur's brother.[/spoiler] [b]The brother stands, as well.[/b] "You don't deserve to be king. No, I had been training all my life to be king, and then [i]you[/i] came along. I believe we will meet again, brother." [b]The war goes on outside, one side standing firmly behind King Arthur's ideals, while the other half, corrupted by his brother.[/b] [b]Knights rush in, guarding the brother.[/b]
-
I apologize for this brother, but you have no idea who you're up against. *Cyan grabs Excalibur* I don't want to kill you, eh, I really don't care about you. I will not lose to a corrupted tyrant.
-
[b]He laughs maniacally.[/b] "Ah, but I'm sure you care about your people...." [b]Time speeds forward, until Arthur stands on the battlefield, 10 years later. The battlefield is stained with blood, and everybody around him was dead. The civilians, dead. The army, dead. Arthur's parents, dead. Arthur's lover, tortured to death by his brother's armies. And, his brother stands in front him, the only other person alive.[/b] "Brother, it's been a long decade."
