Sweegy Woods Battle

     Everyone was walking to Zaland Fort City. They then heard a small explosion.

     "What the...?" Said Izlude. He ran to the city.

     "Let's go!" Shouted Ramza. The rest ran to Zaland. The princess waited by a few trees.

     When Izlude got there he say a dead body on the ground and a young man with a strange machine in his hand. Then 4 other people came after the man.

     "Give us the holy stone and we will let your father go!!"

     "lay one hand on my father and you will never get the holy stone!!"

     "Get him!" He othe rman shouted as some more people came.

     One of them was a thief two others were archers, one wizard, and two knights. They all ran towards the young man. Izlude got an idea. He picked up a large rock got up on a wall and dropped it on the head of a knight. The young man pointed the machine at Izlude. "Relax! I'm on your side!" Said Izlude. The machine th eman was holding let out a small boom Izlude ducked but there was a scream behind him, he looked up and there was a knight holding his ready to chop Izlude in half, now falling to the ground dead. "I need to get one of those things..." Said Izlude. Ramza and the others ran up and started to fight. "Izlude! Are you okay?!" Shouted Ramza.

     "I'm fine! This guy saved my life!" Izlude shouted pointing at the young man.

     "My name is Mustadio! Help!" He shouted as a knight was ready to impale him. Jessy hit the Knight with an arrow. Izlude then saw an enemy archer aiming an arrow at Jessy. He ran infront of jessy. The archer shot the arrow. Izlude pulled out his shield just in time to stop the arrow. He then ran to the archer running faster fantaser until he jumped up and sliced the archers bow in two. "Leave or die.." he said. The archer got an arrow and stabbed Izlude in the shoulder with it. "AAGH!!" He shouted. But he got his sword and killed the archer. He grabbed his shoulder and slowley pulled the arrow out of his shoulder. Baker threw him an X-potion. Izlude poured some of it on his shoulder it healed almost instantly. "Thanks!" He shouted, putting the vile in a pocket. He ran off to battle. He knew most of his Squire skills, stone throw, dash, etc. She knew all of them but how to counter attack. He got his chance that very moment a Knight ran towards him barely missing with his sword. Izlude then tackled the knight in defense. he tackled the knight right into Ramza's sword. The Knight slumped to the ground... dead... Izlude then felt power in him as the ancient knowledge of job skills flowed in him... He could now become a Knight.
