The Knight

And

The Hunter

 


By: Josh Dooley


A long time ago, in the small town of Gold Shire, Akiosa the hunter, and his pet bear Cuddles would spend there days hunting for food. While Akiosa would be shooting at the animal with his bow, Cuddles would be distracting the animal until they took it down. And they had a deasent life because of that. But one day that would all change When he would meet the great knight named Jeppry. On his golden horse, he got off to ask a question to Akiosa, one that he will never forget.


"Hello hunter, I am Jeppry the Great," he said to Akiosa. "How would you like to join me on my Quest to slay the dragon of Dark Shire. I know this might seem odd, knowing that we don't know each other, but i asure you that i am a deasent man. I've been watching you hunt stuff and fight other animals with your pet, and your pretty handy with that bow, so how bout say you use that to kill the dragon and be a hero."


"A quest to kill the Dark Shire dragon?" Akiosa replied. "Has your head met the ground to say this non-sence, that's just plain stupidity. Not only will you get killed, but you will go down as history as just another man who died from that dragon. Please don't make the same mistake many of my people made."

"Ahh but you forget young fellow, I am Jeppry the Great. I have slain the Orcs to the east, the Trolls to the west, and also the Blood Elfs of the north, I know I will slay this dragon, all i need is you and your pets help"

"A quest to kill the Dark Shire dragon?" Akiosa replied. "Has your head met the ground to say this non-sence, that's just plain stupidity. Not only will you get killed, but you will go down as history as just another man who died from that dragon. Please don't make the same mistake many of my people made."

"Ahh but you forget young fellow, I am Jeppry the Great. I have slain the Orcs to the east, the Trolls to the west, and also the Blood Elfs of the north, I know I will slay this dragon, all i need is you and your pets help"

After thinking about it, Akiosa went back to his house to pack up stuff for him and Cuddles. After he packed it up, he put is pack on his horse, and he was ready to travel to the dark and scary place of Dark Shire.

"This trip will be dangerous," said Akiosa. "Not only the fact we have little food but where are we gonna sleep, this trip will take more than five days, and I don't wanna be killed in the middle of the night."

"Don't worry," Jeppry replied. "We will be stopping in towns for food, and as for sleeping, well I really don't know, let's just hope we find nice people along the way."



The men traveled long, and they traveled far. Many stops were made because of resting for them selfs, but mostly for Cuddles, for being a big heavy bear, its hard for him to run such distances. And they did not reach Dark Shire until five days after there journey had begun.

And finally, they were there. They were very quiet, for they did not know where the dragon was. But as they got closer, they saw the dragon, from a distance flying across the edge of the mountain. And as they were waiting, they saw two other guys looking at the dragon as well, and it looked to be like they were armed. Very quietly, they went over to talk to them, it was a Warrior and a Wizard.

"Hello brave men, my name is Jeppry, and this is Akiosa, and his pet Cuddles. we are here to slay the dragon, do you wish to join together to take this beast down."


"Ahh I see," said the warrior. "Well i am Royfan the fine, and this be my wizard friend Shaokin the White. We are here to slay the dragon, and yes we would love to accompany you. What we do is me, Jeppry, and Cuddles will go up to the beast and start slashing away at him, while dodging his claws, and fire. And while were doing that, Akiosa and Shaokin will stay in the back shooting stuff at him until we take this beast down. So what do you say?" Asked Royfan. "Sounds deasent to me, lets take this thing down!" replied Akiosa with determination in his voice.



The dragon Akiosa and his new friends were about to face was not gonna be easy. Dragon skin is the hardest kind of skin in the world, and his fire breath could roast you like a turkey in just five seconds, and its claws could rip your armor in peices in just one blow. and as green as a jade this dragon was'nt looking around to play.

So wasting no time, Jeppry, Royfan, and Cuddles all charged the beast as it landed, and it started blowing fire at them. But dodging the fire, they all ran in and started slashing and biting away. Akiosa was using all his best arrows, like his poisoned tipped, and his fire tipped, and Shaokin started firing all his fire, frost, and arcane balls he could.

After about two hours of the long tiring battle, they did it, they killed the beast. So walking back to there horses, they knew they were gonna go back home heros. 



The End.
