Chapter+8

All James, Victor, and Vaughn had been doing is going off to help the army prepare. They had been teaching the army how to fire rifles when crouching and laying down. Also Spencer had been showing the army some stabbing techniques he learned back in Nazarath. The army was also learning how to make bombs with Victor. Vaughn had been helping make spears and alot of swords. They made over 100 slingshots and had collected many sharp rocks in just two days. They practiced how to reload their weaapons quickly and fire rapidly. The army was starting to become more stonger and they began to make armor that prtected them. James came up to Wesly and asked " Hey you alright?" " Yea, why you askin youngster?" asked Wesly as he cleaned his sword. James stared at it as it shined in the glowing fire light. " Well all this time you have been serious and very anoyyed for some odd reason." replied James. " Well i've been very disapionted at my father for not letting me go with my group to 'em cyclops soldiers during midnight and just kill them all." He explained with a very angry look in his face. " You know that the cyclops army only sleeps for like 5 hours during the day and never sleep in the night right? asked James. " Well before you came their god dang army only slept at night." Wesley said staring at James. " Well can you at least calm down a little?" asked James. " I only calm down when i'm at home, but i have only been there once after i found you nd your buddies snoring on the ground." Wesly replied and then a smile came across his face as he sharpened his spear. " So i heard you met my folks, and you haven't met my smallest sister yet huh?" he asked. " No, i haven't met your little sister, but i heard she's my age." replied James. " Well don't get all hypered up kid, because if i hear you got with her and broke her heart i'll slay you myself." Wesly seriously said as he stared at James eye to eye. James got very quiet. He then got defensive. " What you talking about me getting with her?" James asked angrily, " I haven't even met her!" " Just watch kid, my little sister is a beautiful fish in the water that is waiting for the right person to catch her." Wesly said, " I'm the shark that will gobblle who ever breaks her heart." James just laughed. Wesly laughed too but he was serious. Then Wesly, James, Vaughn, Spencer, and Victor went to the king Johns house. THey entered the house. "Wesly, you are back!" screamed Lucy as she hugged her older brother. Then her three little girls came and hugged him too. "Hi uncle Wesly!" they said cheerfully. James realized this was going to be big family dinner because there was a huge table in the middle of the dining room. The biggest table James had ever seen. Everyone took a seat and began to eat. James finished first and heard a knock on the door. He opened it. James eyes grew wide as he saw a very glamorous girl standing there with blue eyes staring at him. Her eyes sparkled and reminded him of the ocean and how peacful it was. Her gorgeous face made his heart melt and his cheeks turn red. Her hair was black and it was put in a pony tail. She smiled. " Hi, i'm Jessica." she said with her soft voice. James didn't know what to say. She was so pretty that he felt she was a princess. He didn't notice she was standing there staring at him waiting for him to introduce himself. " Uh, hi i'm James, future king of Nazarath, im very pleased to meet you." he said very quickly and loudly. He felt stupid and embaressed. Jessica smiled and was waiting for something else. He instantly remembered what to do. He grabbed her hand and kissed it. Her hand was so soft. He let her in. He felt very dumb. As she passed, her perfume smelled like flowers. James wasn't sure if he was dreaming or not. " So what you think of my sister kid?" James spun around and saw Wesley standing there looking at him. James didn't know what to say. " She is the most beautiful young women i've ever seen." He said. " Hahaha told ya boy!" Wesly said laughing, " just remember what i told you about me being the shark ok boy?" James smiled " Ok Wesley." James let Jessica sit in his seat. She ate and finished eating. Everyone went outside and began to talk to the town and had a big celebration. Victor came up to Jame and said " James old boy, go get that young lady!" James laughed. He began to walk up to Jessica. Every step he took made him even more nervous. She smiled at him and came his direction. "Hello James." she said politely " Hi Jessica i've...." She came up to him and hugged him. He had never felt so good. She kissed him on the cheek and he kissed her on both cheeks. He took a while to remove his lips from her cheek. Jessica blushed a little and giggled. Then after a long conversation She said she needed to go help clean up the house. James smiled. She liked him back. He was able to tell how by how quickly she walked away and how her soft cheeks turned red. The next day the boys were back with the army helping out. " James, wow man, i saw everything!" Vaughn said laughing. " Yea man shes the perfect one for you." Victor said smiling. "Haha What you guys talking about?" James asked laughin as he loaded a rifle. " I saw you kiss that pretty girls cheeks man." Vaughn replied as he shoved a whole load of spears in a bag and set it aside. " You should get with that girl." Victor said smiling, " I already found myself one and her name is Vanessa. She a beauty." " You planning to stay with her?" asked Spencer. " Of course. I am going to marry her after the war." Victor replied. The boys continued chatting. Then they saw a young man with shredded pants and no shirt. He began to run towards James but was stopped by a soldier. The young man said " I have come to deliver a message to the prince about the king's wealth in Nazarath." The soldier let him pass. James stood up and walked to the young man who began to smile a little. " Prince, your father has gotten better, but not that much." " Well tell me more." James ordered. " The king said he can last a month or two." the messanger replied. " Very well then, go back and tell my father that i am going to war with the cyclop's army and that i will retrieve the medicine." James ordered. " Yes sir." the messanger said. The young man left with enough amunition and supplies to return safely. He left early. Then James, Spencer, Vaughn, and Victor went back into the Kings house and they began to make a plan B where if they fail, they will have a plan that will protect the underground town and save the lives of everyone. The king was agreeing with everything. James was not sure if it will work but he was hoping for it. A week passed and the army was ready. James was ready too along with Spencer, Victor, and Vaughn. THe four boys walked out of the underground town and covered the way inside with pounds of leaves. James saw the orks that were marching slowly and quietly. The ork king stood and looked around. He spotted James standing not that far away. He pointed his spear at him and yelled " GET THEM AND KILL THEM!" The orks began to chase them, along with 1,000 other orks. James ran to the gates of Yumazandra. Spencer hid behind a bush. Victor tackled one of the cyclop's guards standing in the way. the other guard was killed after a spear went through his neck. James and Victor moved right out of the way and the orks broke down the gates and right behind the gates was the cyclop's army. The war began. The cyclop's warriors sliced away at the orks as the rest of the ork army fought back throwing their spears and swinging their swords. James yelled to Spencer to go signal the underground army. Spencer ran and yelled at Vaughn who then went to Wesley and told him to march. The men began to march in line and with their rifles on their side. Vaughn marched with them and so did Victor. They wanted to fight at least a little. They arrived right in front of the ork army that had their backs on them busy fighting the cyclops army. Wesly crouched with his 50 men and yelled loudly "Ready, aim, FIRE!" BOOM! the sound of the rifles firing echoed in James ears as he watched about 20 orks fall dead. The orks turned around and thought the cyclops army had joined the humans army. They were very confused. "FIRE!" Wesley yelled again. This time the men with pistols fired while the men with rifles reloaded. Then it was the machine guns who fired. The orks now were fighting two armies. Many orks began to fall dead. Wesley lead his group and about 200 other men around, behind the Kingdom. Victor followed. Vaughn and James stayed helping the rest of the army fight. "Ready, aim, FIRE!" screamed James as 100 men fired their rifles,arrows,and spears at the orks. Many fell dead. James climbed on a rock to look for the Ork king. and there he was fighting some cyclops soldiers. Then James jumped off and got in the front lines. "Ready, CHARGE!" James screamed as he and the army charged with their swords, knifes, and Enfield Bayonets. Men slashed away at the orks and at some cyclop's soldiers. Many orks began to ignore the cyclop army and kill the humans. That didn't work though. James ducked as an ork swung his huge sword at him. He then drove his sword right into the orks stomach and then he pulled it out. The ork fell on the floor motionless. He and the Ork king were facing each other. " You killed my friend Joseph, and now i'm going to kill you." James angrily said. "Well you and your stupid friends tricked us and now my army is going to lose," the ork king said "I will enjoy looking at your dead body before i run and retreat!" The Ork king ran towards james and swung his huge sword at him. James blocked it with his sword. All he heard was a tremendous CLANG as both swords hit each other. The Ork's strength was to much. So James rolled and before he stood up he sliced part of the ork's leg. "AHHH!" the Ork screamed and stared at the cut, blood began to come out. The Ork looked at James with furious eyes and the ork quickly took out another sword and swung it to him. James blocked it. CLANG! the ork king swung his other sword and James quickly took his rifle out with his left hand and blocked the second sword. He heard the rifle crack. The Ork King's strong swing broke the rifle a little and the sword was stuck to the rifle. The ork king threw the sword away from him and james. The Rifle still didn't come off. James took out is small knife just as the Ork King took out a medium sized sword. Now both of them had a big sword and a little one. "AHHHHHHHHHHH!" The Ork king screamed as he savagely swung both swords at James. James began to back away but wasn't quick enough. The ork's medium sword sliced his left arm badly, the ork then kicked james and made him drop his sword and his knife. The Ork King kicked the sword and the knife away as James layed on the floor. James slowly began to stand up. The Ork King lifted his sword, and was about to swing when Vaughn appeared and threw his sword at James. James caught it and tackled the Ork king. The Ork King kicked him off and stood back up. Then Vaughn ordered the men with bowing arrows to kill the Ork King. The men pulled their arrows back and let their arrows go flying at the same time. over 20 arrows landed right on the Ork king's back. The ork King fell on his knees. and stared at James who was standing up. James Looked at him, and swung his swork at the King's head. The Ork King saw nothing but darkness after that. He had lost the battle. "James, we have to retreat!" Victor yelled as he and Wesley came running with only about 40 men. "What happened?" asked James "There....was....to many..of cyclop's army," Replied Wesley out of breath, " It looks like they were.....waiting for us." James told Vaughn to order the retreat. " RETREAT!" screamed Vaughn. The men retreated and ran into the woods. They split apart at first and then regrouped as they went underground running. Soon the only me left were James, Vaughn, and two other warriors protecting them as they retreated. James stoppped running and heard one of the cyclop's soldier scream: "THROW THE FIRE BALLS!!!!" James stared as he heard a few screams. Then he stared in horror as 100 balls of fire flew in the sky. They looks like a million arrows at first but when they as they came closer, they didn't look like arrows at all. "Run!!!" yelled Vaughn as the fire balls came crashing down and exploding. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! James ran and all around him were raining fire balls. BOOM! one of the men protecting him went flying. BOOM! James and Vaughn continued running further into the trees until they were safe. Both men that protected them were killed. James and Vaughn went into the underground town panting. All the soldiers were back in the military station. treating their wounds and helping the injured. The King asked James if the town needed to evacuate. James said not to worry because the cyclop's army were busy killing the rest of the ork army. He was glad to see Wesley, Vaughn, Victor, and Spencer were ok. They had to make another plan later but right now they had to rest. James came up to one warrior. "What are the casualties?" " 100 men killed, and 40 injured." replied the warrior. James felt horrible, he told the warrior to tell all the families of the dead men that they were brave, and that he was very deeply sorry. The warrior nodded and continued helping others. James felt a little dizzy, then he began to see the whole place become very squished in. He felt very weird. Then he fell, and he saw Vaughn, Spencer, Wesley, and Victor all around him. He heard voices and he heard Wesley yell "We need a docter QUICK!" Then all James saw was darkness. A few minutes later James opened his eyes to see the King's whole family circled around him. He was in a bed. "Ugh, what happened?" he asked. "James, you just fell and passed out." Spencer replied. " I think you are going to have to stay in bed for about 3 days." King John said. "Yea because your arm was cut badly, and now that Lucy stitched it up you are going to have to stay laying down." said Victor. James looked at his arm. It was wrapped with some white cloth. He saw a little bit of red on it. The family left the room. Spencer and Vaughn followed. Victor stared at James arm and asked what happened. James told him how he fought the Ork King and how the Ork King sliced his arm. "Wow James, you are one lucky fellow." Victor said. They didn't notice that Jessica was standing by the door listening. James noticed her and Victor stood and walked out of the room. Jessica walked up and sat down. " You were very brave." she said with a smile. " Well thats what a prince should always be like." James said. To James surprise, she leaned over and kissed him on the mouth. Then she walked out of the room and closed the door. james lay on the bed smiling. " Just three days James, and your going back to work." he told himself. Then he fell asleep. He ended up in bed for 4 days, and he was very embarressed because he was being fed like a baby. he was finally relieved he was out of the bed after the 4 days passed.Then he went back to work with the army. He then went out of the underground town and into the forest with the other three boys. He needed to go back to that big dwarf king and ask him if he could help. His kingdom wasn't that far away. So the four boys started through the dangerous forest. it only took two days to get to the kingdom and two more days to get back to the underground town. James had only about 30 weeks left to attack the kingdom of Yumazadra. James wanted to cure his father and be able to help the underground King to take Yumazadra back. So James and the boys continued their Journey to the dwarfs Kingdom to ask them if they will help them fight the cyclops army. James was going to have patience this time for that dwarf to finish his food. If he doesn't, James will have to get rid of the Dwarf King and control his army. James was armed and ready. Only two days of travel. Then he will be able to return to the underground town. He began to cut the bushes that were in the way. They killed some snakes and other creatures that were trying to kill them. They finally made it to the Dwarfs kingdom the next day in the morning.
