Brandon hanged on as more water splashed around the boat. He looked up as Avad was hanging on for dear life.
"Mortars Sir!" He cried, the man point up to the sky. Brandon looked up to see fire balls being flung into the sky and hurled towards them. The captain on board spun his wheel sharply to avoid the mortars, but wasn't lucky to avoid them as one proceeded to puncture into the deck and down into the lower hill before blowing up inside. Brandon hung tighter as the explosion rocked the ship. He watched as Ava's was flunged into the air and into the water.
"Avad!" He shouted, as another explosion blew him off the ship and into the water. Brandon watched from underneath the water surface as the boat blew up in a brilliant light show before the rest begun to sink. He quickly looked around to see if Avad was nearby but began to swim up from the lack of air. Once he took a gasp of air and looked around to see the burning water around him. No Avad however, Brandon began swimming back to the surface.
'Damn!' He thought, he was getting tired from having to swim from such a distance like this. He has cursed himself for not flying off the boat and assisting those that needed his help. But worse of all is that an attack was launched on his Kingdom and he's out in the water trying to make it back.
"Sir!" Brandon focus was snapped as he heard a familiar voice and the sound of the water waking. He turned behind him to see another boat behind him with Avad on board.
"Avad!" He shouted, as he held his hand out for Ava's to grab and pull him on board.
"Sir its as worse as we thought." Avad said, placing a warm towel on him. Brandon looked at him then at the floating machine preparing to tear through the city.
"Not to worry, once I'm fully dried I will take that thing down." He said, Avad nods his head and went to talk to the captain. Brandon then sat their he tried to drown out all the possibility of the lost of his kingdom. He drowned out the possibility of being dominated and beaten to a pulp. But mostly he drowned out the noise of his wife screaming in a howel pain as she held a lifeless body in her arm. No Brandon was not going to stand for this. He sharply took a deep breath and glowed brightly. His eyes turning red and the remaining water started to dry of the his skin. He then looked up at the object and bent his knees. Then in brilliant light rocket himself towards the object letting out a war cry like no other, bursting through it and punching through what seemed like decks of armor. He then turned around open his palm at the object.
"Inferno!" He chanted, producing a fireball before shooting it a stream of flames that roasted the object with such intense heat. Brandon didn't stop either he made sure that it was nothing more than ashes that would crumbled softly to the ground. It was over, Brandon descended down to the shoreline where the floating object had fell. He stood their for a while not knowing to feel bad or relief that he had stopped what could of been a disaster for his Kingdom.
"My Lord?" Brandon turned around to see Avad a few royal guards and soldiers flanked him.
"We report no casualties sir." He said, Brandon nods and looked at the crumpled wreck then turned away and started to walk to his mansion.
"What about the sea gate?" He asked knowingly that Avad would follow him.
"The repair crew is on there way to fix it sir." He said, Brandon nods his head and kept his eyes straight.
"Good send two guards and have the builders build a watchtower there." He said, Avad bows and peeled away from him. Brandon eyes narrowed as he kept walking. The attack was too light yet he, Avad, and the captain too the boat nearly died out in the water. He had a bad feeling and was certain that this wasn't the only attack that was to come. Brandon then noticed that he was at the double doors of his mansion. He sighed lightly and was about to open them when another explosion rocked the entire ground. Brandon spun quickly as from his view he could see another Sea Gate rip from the pillar and collapse into the water then another and another till the last one fell and a fog obscured his view. Brandon looked in horror as he used his energy to search out to see if Avad had left the docks. To his surprise he didn't and neither did the builders but now war boats and undead armies started to show themselves. Some being demons from another world others beings that Brandon knew to heart. It was a fullscale invasion and Brandon watched as his soldiers marched and charged to defend the beach from their attackers. Then Brandon saw him, the person responsible for this attack. His teeth gritted against one another as small sparks of flames appeared behind him. There was fire in his eyes as he glared intensely at his advisory. He was responsible for destroying the peace and now Brandon had to fight a war in his home, his castle, his kingdom.
"Bill...."
