Part 50
Day 2) they take the monorail to the city of Babon. The city of high honor. When they go to the village they see it's full of highly rich people who work good jobs and have good fortunes awaiting them. They even have a beautiful garden and beautiful homes, fewer beggars in the streets and a lake not far from there. Then they reach the castle where the soldiers come outside blocking their way to the castle with their weapons blocking the door.
Soldier: State your business!
Tristan: We're here to see the King. Its Important.
Soldier: Why do you have to see the King?
(Then the king steps outside having the soldiers back down when he signals them to)
King: Hello, prince. It's been a while.
(Tristan bows before the king)
Tristan: My king.
King: King Baigon at your service. Who is your group, prince?
Tristan: Liege, These are my trusted knights and my trusted servants. We are here to up our army to rescue the princess and bring her back home from the tyrants that kidnapped her.
Baigon: Come inside.
(They take a walk until they get led to the mess hall)
You know what you have to do, right prince? In order for me to give you my army to fight alongside you in battle.
Tristan: Yes, liege.
Baigon; Let the tournament begin! Who will be the lucky lot?
Tristan: The head knight of my crew.
Knight: It will be an honor, prince.
Baigon: You will fight Santino. My highly skilled soldier. If you win, my army is at your side in battle. Begin!
(They are seen pacing around together facing each other. Santino attacks Knight with the sword but he ducks the attack, they start again)
(Knight swings his sword toward Santino on his chest but he too dodges the attack having his body move a bit away from the sword)
(santino Let's out a yell sound and has his body turn in a circle attempting to hit the Knight. Knight falls to the ground but he gets up again)
(Knight then punches Santino in the face. He takes it and with the other sword of the Knight, he swifts the sword under his feet having Santino slip under his grip and Knight points the sword at him but King Baigon comes in between them)
Baigon: Enough!
(Then he looks at Tristan and his knights)
You've done good prince. Very good. My army will aid you in battle.
(Then the Electus knights cheer. Knight grips Santino's hand and helps him up. They shake hands. Smiling at each other signaling a truce.
(Back to the entrance of the village)
Baigon: Feel free to use our packhorses to get to your destination faster.
Tristan: Thank you liege.
(They all leave the village they use the packhorses to go from Babon to Palpytus)
Tristan: It may take us a few days. So let's get to walking.
(Hours pass by and its night time again)
Hilda: We must stop and rest for now.
Tristan: Of course. Let's set up camp.
(They get everything ready and Harper comes and cooks dinner on the fire wood when all is set up and dinner is ready,Harper sets the food into the clean bowls)
Harper: Alright, we're having pot roast. Eat up.
Knight 4: Bloody damn. This smells so good.
Knight 2: I'm so hungry I could eat anything.
Tristan: Thanks, Harper.
Harper: Let me know when you guys are done so i can clean the bowls.
Hilda: Don't be silly. I'll help you. You're not alone in cleaning.
Harper: Sure.
(He smiles then everyone has conversation and when it's over, Harper and Hilda clean the plates quietly and when it's all over, they all head into their tents)
Tristan: Alright men. I'm going to sleep. We have a big day ahead of us.
Knight 8:I'll keep watch, sire.
Harper: Me too, liege.
Tristan: Very well. The rest of us will sleep.
(Day 3 morning everyone gets up)
Harper: Alright. We better get going to Palpytus.
(They all go on their horses and Harper leads the packhorses they begin walking for a few hours until they reach a mountain)
Tristan: Palpytus. The city that never sleeps. Let's go.
(They walk a few more hours until finally they reach Palpytus)
Hilda: Let's get going to the castle.
(Palpytus is a decent village to be in. There's people who live in small cottages and farms, there are chickens in the front pecking at chicken feed and lots and lots of beggars in the streets of the village. They reach the gated castle of the Palpytus and the Queen comes out)
Queen: Ah, prince. To what do we owe the pleasure?
Tristan: I'm sure you've heard about what I've been doing for the past few days.
Queen: I'm sure of it. Come inside.
(They all do)
yes. I am aware what's been going on the past couple of days. Word spreads quickly. Choose your person in battle and I will choose mine.
Tristan: Lady's first.
(He gestures to her to go first)
Queen: Very well. I choose one of my highly skilled people the head soldier of the kingdom, Naima Koope.
(Hilda recognizes the name and so does Tristan. Naima Koope is one of the first woman knights in the city of Palpytus and one of the most strictest of the army. Having herself be ranked among all of mankind. Working hard to make something of herself. Then Naima comes)
Naima: Oh a girl.
(She scoffs at Hilda)
how embarassing for a prince. What? Is she doing community service?
(She's also cocky and arrogant. She was possibly treated the exact same as Hilda yet she's acting like the equivalent of a man)
Queen: Pick your opponent, prince.
(Then Tristan looks at all of the knights then makes a decision)
Tristan: I pick...my servant, Hilda.
(The queen is shocked)
queen: You're joking right,prince? A servant girl cannot spar one of my soldiers.
Tristan: She's vastly improved for the several days. She knows her way.
Naima: So be it. Let's spar then.
Queen: Are you sure Tristan? You'll surely lose for sure.
Tristan: I am sure. Let's get to the arena.
(And they do. Naima takes her sword and Hilda takes out her sword. She was also given permission to change out of her servant girl dress into her assassin clothes to better spar the woman soldier)
Naima: I must warn you, girl. I am mastered in all that is combat. You will most likely not stand a chance.
Hilda: We'll see. After all actions speak louder than words.
Naima: So be it.
(They begin pacing around each other and before Hilda knows it, Naima strikes her with her sword but Hilda ducks it just in time before the blow goes to her body. Hilda turns her body around and swings the sword at Naima who is turn, dodges the attack kicking Hilda to the floor. She quickly gets up again.
(Then before Hilda has a chance, she puts her sword away and Naima aims her sword at Hilda and Hilda takes out her hidden blade and tries to aim at Naima)
Naima; An assassin!
Hilda: No rules, am I right? All Is fair in sparing.
Naima: Very well.
(She has one of the soldiers hand her a pointy stick thingy for combat and she points it at Hilda)
Naima: I hope you know what you're doing. Tap out or else.
Hilda: No.
(Then Naima tries to strike the pointy long stick at Hilda but she skips her body back then Naima does it again. The blow goes on Hilda but she gets up and tries again. When Naima tries to strike her with it, Naima stabs Hilda in the other back of the stick and the knights of Electus are shocked it happened. Then Tristan goes over to Hilda who is in the back.
Tristan: Hilda! You alright?
(Then Hilda looks down when Naima is seen proud of what she did but she smiles cheeky at Naima)
Hilda: You really have to do better than that, Ms. Koope.
(Hilda reveals the pointy stick under her shoulder leaving Naima shocked. Then Hilda points it at Naima who has her hands out, palm out. Then the queen steps in between them)
queen: Game over. Congratulations, prince. We will fight alongside you in battle.
Naima: I can't believe what you did, I got beat by a servant. Well done.
(They shake hands)
Hilda: I would like you to know my name. Its Hilda. Keep it in your mind. Because I'm going to be well known someday.
Naima: I'll be sure of it.
(They smile mischievously at each other)
(they go outside of the castle into the village)
Tristan: Well done, everyone. We have all the resources we need to fight Roman and his army and we're gonna get the princess back once and for all.
(They all cheer at their victory)
Tristan: Now, let's go home. I bet everyone is tired and exhausted.
Knight 5: Yeah, you're telling me.
Harper: I'm beat.
Hilda: Same here.
*they all shake their heads then they all grab their horses and start walking into the village. And when night time approaches the tents are all set up. Day 3
(it's now morning time and they make their way back to the castle of Electus finally home at last the townsguards are there waiting for him and the knights)
Todd Dolores: Come. We have much to discuss about the princess. We have a strong feeling we know where she is being held at.
