The Devil’s Swordsman - Part 5
A World of Magic Story
In the forest, the steps of Danny, Sammy, and the Mysterious Figure could be heard ruffling with the leaves and bushes while echoing throughout the tall, stern trees. The sound of nature was echoed all around as well in the forest, and it all seemed like a tranquil scene inside of a fairytale.
“Are we there yet?” asked Sammy. She seemed to be in a highly agitated mood, whimpering as each yard was reached.
“Not even close.” The Mysterious Figure replied back. Clearly tired from walking, they all looked around for a place to settle down, finding nothing.
“Now I wish we could of just went to Riverville and spent the night.” Danny was tired as well, just as much like Sammy. “Hey look, there’s a camp over there!” Danny then pointed to an abandoned set of tents that surrounded a lit fire. “Let’s go check it out!”
As Danny and Sammy began to go towards the tents, skipping as they ran, something caught the eye of the Mysterious Figure. “Danny, Sammy, stop right there!” They all then stood quietly as if they were stoned statues.
Suddenly, the figure then sprinted towards Danny, pulling out his sword. With an expressed look on his face, Danny ducked out of a reflex and heard something make a clanking, metal sound as he was looking away. When he looked up, the figure was right there standing in front of him as an arrow was on the ground. A boy then started to crawl down a tree and then began to run off.
“It’s just a looter that was trying to get us. He ran off so it should be safe now.” They all then proceeded to go to the tent.
“Wow, there’s four tents, that’s enough for all of us to get one!” Sammy jumped up in joy as she would get a whole tent to herself.
“Hey what’s this?” Danny then pointed to a wanted poster. The poster then read…
WANTED: SWORDSMAN DRAGOMIR CUTLASS
REPUTATION: DEMON
LAST SEEN: IRONPORT
The Mysterious Figure then whispered to himself, “How did they know I was at Ironport?!”
“Hey mister, what do you mean by that?” As the Mysterious Figure turned around, Sammy was exactly behind him, questioning what he had just said.
“Sit down, let me tell you two who I really am.”
