Chapter 3 Lion King Eltosian
Narrator: Having lost Agusty castle to Ark, King Shagaar retreated northward to Madino castle. Ark stopped from conquering further, as promised to Eltosian.
While the army rested at Agusty, Ark kept on requesting Barhara to let him return Agusty to Shagaar, which was part of his promise. But Barhara is always telling Ark to stay in control of Agusty and the people within. Half a year passed, and many Grandbellian workers started treating Agustria as a part of Grandbell, not an autonomous nation. This makes Agusty people start complaining. Soon, a battle which Ark disdains shall begin. While in Madino, Shagaar mobilized his force and declared a war against Ark, in order to re-take capitol Agusty. North of Madino lies the lair of the infamous Pirates of Orgahill. They're also prepared to raid the villages under the cover of warfare. Above all these problems, Barhara orders Ark to defend Agusty castle. Torn between his loyalty to his country and the promise with Eltosian, Ark is very pensive about the upcoming battle. Eltosian's army is currently southwest of Madino, in Silvail. This battle might tear apart Ark and Eltosian's long standing friendship... On the north tip of Agustria, Ark faces the battle that will further change the history.
Yomi: Ark sir, Shagaar has declared war on us.
Ark: I know, I know.
Yomi: Did Barhara give us permission to return Agustria to Shagaar?
Ark: No, I keep requesting but they told me to remain in control of Agustria...We have no choice Yomi we must fight Shagaar...
Elle: ...Ark what's going on?
Ark: ...Shagaar is trying to attack us again. Barhara won't let me return Agustria to him. I guess we have no choice but to fight... Elle you must stay inside. Now that my son Ark Jr. is born you have to stay inside with him.
Elle:Yes I know...but are you sure Ark Jr. is the best you can came up with?
Ark: Well you should of heard Terranigma Freak other choices. Names like Butz, Cloud, Squell or something like that. What kind of names are those. Oh yeah he also said Link, Donkey Kong, and Yoshi? Those names are for house pets not my son.
Elle: But the name Serlis sounds nice.
Ark: Well yeah, but...well I'll explain why later. Oh has Terranigma Freak returned yet?
Yomi: No sir, he said he's going to invite a friend to help out as an advisor.
Ark: Alright we'll have to go without him.
Narrator: While at Mardino Shagaar is plotting to destroy Ark.
Shagaar: Oh let see... I got clean underpants...hmm oh don't forget pack my teddy bear.
Jacoban: Your highness, our troops are ready to attack Agusty.
Shagaar: Good, you do your best, and will rewarded. I have to go get more allies.
Jacoban: Yes your highness. Alright men it's time for war!
Narrator: While Ark and Shagaar's army prepares to battle it out on the battle field the Orgahill Pirates are plotting to steal from the villages.
Pirate1: Hey boss lady, there's a war going on. Can we go rob some villages?
Bridget: No, we must not waste our men on these little villages. We've already assembled the largest army ever. Once they're done fighting they'll be weak and won't stand a chance against us. Then we'll be able to rob and steal whatever we want.
Pirate1: But...
Bridget: No buts.
Narrator: The pirate leaves.
Pirate1: I think we need a new leader.
Pirate2: Yeah she's getting soft. We'll wait for the right time and kill her.
Pirate1: Yeah!
Narrator: As both sides are all set for battle a general name Jacoban from Shagaar's army came out to challenge anyone to a one on one duel. Hollin charged out to fight. The general lasted only 5 rounds and lost. Holin chased after him, but suddenly Jacoban took out a strange sword, and it shoot a lightning bolt. Hollin quickly dodage, and Jacoban got to safety. Ark thrusted his sword forward and his army charged. Jacoban army charged forward as well, and the melee broke out. Soldiers battling, mages casting spells, catapults flung rocks into the air. By the end of the day Jacoban suffered a big lost.
Jacoban: We must retreat back to Mardino castle. We'll only stay inside to defend it.
Narrator: Jacoban army retreated by to Mardino, and did not come out to fight.
Ark: Hmm it looks like they've decided to defend the castle and not come out to fight...
Yomi: Hey I got an idea!
Ark: You do? Let's hear it.
Yomi: We'll send our troops in front of the castle and insult them. That'll piss them off, and force them to come out to fight.
Ark: Ok let's try it.
Narrator: The next day Ark's army started hurling insults at Jacoban army.
Soldier1: Ha ha look at those cowards.
Soldier2: They're not men, they're just a bunch of watch dogs.
Soldier3: Your mother wears army boots.
Narrator: While they hurl insults the soldiers in the castle paid no attention to them.
Soldiers: *wimpper* I want my mommy...
Jacoban: Pull yourselfs together men. As long as we stay inside they can't do a thing to us.
Narrator: Day 2 Jacoban was hiding under his bed sobbing.
Jacoban: Wailllllllll I want my mommy... she does not waer army boots.
Narrator: There's a proud man sobbing under that bed. While Ark and Yomi tries another plan.
Ark: Boy these guys are well trained.
Narrator: Yeah right!
Yomi: Our insults didn't affect them. Maybe if we look around Mardino castle to see if we can find some kind of advantage.
Ark: Yeah that's a good idea, let's go.
Narrator: Ark and Yomi sneaks around the land near Mardino.
Ark: Yomi, do you see what I see?
Yomi: Yeah, and damn what babe! *whistlers*
Ark: No, I'm talking about the river!
Yomi: Oh right right right.
Ark: Mardino's at a lower ground. We can try to change the flow of the river, and flood Mardino. Plus it's the rainy season. Come on Yomi stop staring, and let's go back to prepare.
Yomi: But sir, how often do you see rare birds like this.
Ark: Come on it's no time for bird watching.
Narrator: That night Ark sent troops to start working on changing the water's course. They dammed up the river and the water started to overflow. With the help of the rain Mardino was flooded in no time.
Jacoban: Guurrrpppp HELP I CAN'T SWIM!!! I'm going down!
Soldier: Er sir, the water's only 1 feet.
Jacoban: I know that. I'm just taking a bath. Now get the hell outta here. Oh and bring my rubber ducky.
Narrator: After being flooded for 3 weeks, Jacoban's troops are not willing to fight anymore. One day Ark sent a messenger to ask Jacoban to surrender.
Jacoban: Never!!! We'll fight to the last man!
Narrator: When the messenger left Jacoban's soldier murdered him, and surrendered to Ark.
Yomi: Ark sir, we've taken care of Mardino, but Shagaar is gone.
Ark: I wonder where he went?
Yomi: Sir, father Claude is here to see you.
Claude: Lord Ark, I have some urgent things to talk to you about.
Ark: What is it?
Claude: I had a small glimps of the future. Someone is trying to kill Prince Kull.
Ark: WHAT!?
Claude: Wait there's more. They're going to blame your father for it.
Ark: Who's trying to kill Prince Kull, and frame my father?
Claude: I don't know. I need to go to the tower of Blaggi to focus my powers, and talk to the gods again.
Tiltyu: He can't focus cause he needs to use the john.
Ark: Hey you're Leptor's daughter Tiltyu aren't you?
Tiltyu: Hey your not like the big idiot everybody says you are.
Ark: Gee... thanks... I think.
Claude: Come on we gotta go. The sooner we get there the better.
Tiltyu: Oh right, sorry we can't and chat. Father Claude needs to use the john badly.
Narrator: Tiltyu and father Claude heads for the tower of Balggi. Meanwhile back at Agusty castle Elle was worrying about Ark.
Elle: Shanan, Madino has fallen, but I'm getting a bad feeling about something. I have to go see Ark. You stay here and look after Ark Jr.
Shanan: No, it's dangerous outside!
Elle: Don't worry about me. The fighting has already stopped. I'll be back soon.
Shanan: Alright, I'll take good care of Ark Jr.
Narrator: Elle heads towards Madino, but suddenly Beruga appeared out of no where.
Beruga: Greetings life form, take me to your DNA extractor.
Elle: ... Are you lost?
Beruga: Just the girl I was looking for. The daughter of Sigyne.
Elle: Wh Who are you and how do you know my mother?
Beruga: Hahaha now that I have you I can finally resurrect my master Dark Gaia.
Elle: No, please get away from me or I'll scream. I'm warning you I have a brick in my purse.
Beruga: You don't even have a purs... *SMASHHHHH* Oh that purse... ouch(falls on the floor).
Narrator: Elle tries to run away, but Beruga use a stun gun on her. He takes Elle and teleported away. Meanwhile knowing Madino would fall Shagaar now tries to get Eltosian to fight Ark.
Eltosian: Your highness, what are you doing here?
Shagaar: Ark has just taken over Madino. I told you he's no good. He won't stop until he's conquered all of Agustria.
Eltosian: No, it can't be... He said he'd return Agustria to you in a year.
Shagaar: RETURN MY ASS! He's conquered Madino, and I'm sure he'll try to conquered Silvail. You are Agustria's last hope.
Eltosian: ... Ark has left me with no choice. I must fight to protect my country. Alright men it's time to prepare for battle. First we must recapture our capital.
Narrator: Eltosian gathers his army and heads straight for Agusty.
Shagaar: Go on and destory yourselfs you fool hehehe. I've even called King Torabant of Thracia for help just in case.
Yomi: Ark sir, an army is heading towards Agusty!
Ark: Huh!? Who is trying to attack us?
Yomi: It looks like... Eltosian's Cross Knight!?
Ark: WHAT!? Why would Eltosian be attacking us?
Yomi: I don't know sir, but we must stop him, and find out what's wrong...
Narrator: Ark quickly rushed back to Agusty to talk to Eltosian.
Ark: Eltosian, what are you doing?
Eltosian: You broke your promise, and now you've even taken Madino. I am here to defend my country. Now taste the power of the Mistoltin.
Ark: No wait I...
Narrator: Eltosian didn't listen. He charged at Ark, and Ark was force to defend himself. He didn't want to fight back, he's in danger. Just then Lachesis came to stop the fight.
Lachesis: Brother, what are you doing!?
Eltosian: Ark has broken his promise. He's trying to take over all of Agustria. I am defending my country. Now step aside sister.
Lachesis: He didn't break his promise! He kept requesting permission to return Agustria to Shagaar, but they didn't let him.
Eltosian: Then why did he attack Madino?
Lachesis: Shagaar ordered his troops to attack. Ark didn't want to fight, but Barhara ordered him to fight. He didn't have a choice either.
Eltosian: Neither did I, but Shagaar is the king...
Lachesis: Shagaar's also the guy who locked you up. You know he's evil, and yet you still listen to him? Did you forget the promise you've made with Ark, and Cuan?
Eltosian: Lachesis... you're right. I'm sorry. I'll stop this foolish battle. I can't face Ark and Cuan right now. Please tell them I'm sorry...
Narrator: Eltosian ordered his army to retreat back to Silvail.
Eltosian: Your highness, I think we should stop this meanless battle. People of our country will suffer if we go to war.
Shagaar: WHAT YOU DARE TO DISOBEY ME!?
Eltosian: We must make peace with Grandbell! Once you do I'm sure they'll return the rest of Agustria back to you.
Shagaar: HOW DARE YOU!! Get back out there and kill those fools!
Eltosian: I will not do it.
Shagaar: Then DIE!!
Narrator: Shagaar pulls out a blade and stabbed Eltosian. Eltosian wasn't prepared, and died.
Shagaar: At least I kill this fool.
Soldier: Your highness, king Torabant is here to see you.
Shagaar: Oh good let him in.
Torabant: So king Shagaar I heard that you were having some problems.
Shagaar: Yes, and I need your help. I'll pay you any price.
Torabant: Well since you asked so nicely I'm sure we can work things out...
Narrator: Torabant sent out some Dragon Knights to attack.
Ark: Oh great, Dragon Knights.
Yomi: We can shoot them down with arrows.
Ark: Right, good thinking Yomi. Alright Mideel and prince Jamuka they're all yours.
Narrator: The Dragon Knights swoops down to attack. Mideel and Jamuka led their archers to counter attack. The Dragon Knights were in the air, and no place to hide. They were shot down like flies... ok fine REALLY BIG FLIES.
Torabant: Nutz oh well I better leave. My favorite T.V. show... err Barney is on. Besides I promised my wife I'd get back home in time.
Narrator: Hmm even evil tyrants are scare of their wives... Well anyway Torabant sneaks out the back door, and flew away. Now all the Dragon Knights have been defeated Ark's army heads for Silvail.
Ark: Shagaar, what you done with Eltosian!?
Shagaar: I've terminated him, and you're next!
Ark: Noooo! You'll pay for this! HIYA!!!
Narrator: Ark charged at Shagaar, and they both started to fight in front of Silvail castle. Shagaar only lasted a couple of rounds, and he's already weakening. Shagaar takes out his spell book and casted eruption. Suddenly a loud sound like thunder can be heard, and the ground began to split open. Ark, horse almost lost balance, but before he knew what happened lava shot out of the ground. Ark couldn't get near Shagaar. Lava shot out from left, and right. Ark desperately dodged left and right. Suddenly his horse lost it footing, and fell into a large pit.
and fell into a large pit.
Shagaar: HAHAHA now I got you just where I wanted.
Narrator: Ark's troops wanted to help, but they know that one wrong move, and Ark is toast.
Ark: DAMN! Come on horse give it all you've got and jump!
Narrator: It's as if his horse understood him. The horse jumped right up into the air. Shagaar was just about to get to the pit, Ark's horse leaped right out of the pit. Shagaar was stuned, but before he could react he saw a sliver light flashed right before his eyes, and Shagaar was dead. Ark Cuan, and Lachesis rushed right into Silvail, but they were too late. Eltosian was dead. As they grief the lost of their friend more bad news arrives.
Yomi: Sir, Shanan is here to see you.
Ark: Shanan what is it?
Shanan: ... Elle's missing!
Ark: What happened!?
Shanan: When you conquered Madino she wanted to see you , so she went out, but it's been a long time now, and she still hasn't returned yet.
Ark: Where's Ark Jr!?
Shanan: He's right here.
Narrator: Yomi rushes back in.
Yomi: Sir, the Orgahill pirates has assembled an army of 1 million soldiers, and they are planning to attack starting with Madino castle!
Ark: What!?
Yomi: Terranigma Freak has returned, and said to meet him at Madino castle.
Ark: Right... Elle, where could she be...
Narrator: Ark moved all his troops, and stationed them at Madino. While the Orgahill pirates has set up their ships, and camps across the sea(it's not that far across).
Pirate1: Hehehe with all these troops we're sure to win.
Pirate2: When the time is right we'll get rid of Bridget as well.
Pirate1: Right, we're not listening to her anymore.
Narrator: Back at Madino Ark and Terranigma Freak prepares for the battle.
Ark: Great now that you're back. Now how are we suppose to fight against such odds? They've got 1 million, and we have only 126000 and a half soldiers!
Terranigma Freak: Where that half a person come from???
Ark: You, cause your just and advisor, and you don't fight.
Terranigma Freak: Right, but don't worry cause I've invited someone to help. Presenting the smart, mighty, and powerful Cher... *POW* GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Narrator: Terranigma Freak was kicked and went flying across the room.

(Here Cherubae makes her ass kicking enterance literally.)

Terranigma Freak: *BOOM* ... ubae...
Cherubae: Dammit I thought you said the odds were 2 to 1 not 10 to 1!
Terranigma Freak: Ouch... well my sources tells me they only have 835000 troops. They're just trying to scare us with this 1 million troops thing.
Cherubae: That's still a bad odds. How the hell did you convince me here anyway?
Terranigma Freak: Oh something about free Everquest.
Cherubae: @#$%!... Remind me never to listen to you again.
Terranigma Freak: Hey look it's your hero Vernon.
Cherubae: WHERE WHERE!? ...Ah nutz!!! Anyway why couldn't you ask someone else like Cyrus to help?
Terranigma Freak: Oh Cyrus is on a quest for more FF8...
Cherubae: Well what about El Bobo?
Terranigma Freak: Poor Bobo's in the hospital right now.
Cherubae: What happened?
Terranigma Freak: Well you know he likes blowing up Pokemon? Well he was in Japan, and Godzilla destoryed a paint factory. Godzilla got yellow paint all over him, and Bobo thought it was a giant Pikachu. Simply put Bobo's ass was nuked.
Cherubae: Ouch!!! Well you can always "Ask Dais" to help.
Terranigma Freak: He's too busy. He's making good money as a traveling fanfic merchant.
Cherubae: Oh yeah that's right he's selling fanfics right now. Oh remind me to have a word with him about his fanfics. I do not freak out, and hit Snape with a rolled up newspaper. I always settle things in a nice, and clam fashion.
Terranigma Freak: ... Oh I guess I can safely tell you the truth. I was the one that broke your vase.
Cherubae: WHAT!!!! *takes out a sledgehammer* DIE!!!!!
Terranigma Freak: NO PLEASE WAHHHHH!!! *SMASSSHHHH* GAHHHHHH! *BAM* OUCH!
Narrator: While Cherubae settles her things Bridget the female leader of the Orgahill pirates discovered the plot to kill her...
Bridget: But who can I turn to for help... I know I'll surrender to lord Ark. Everyone says he's a nice person... but I am the leader of the Orgahill pirates... The heck I'll go.
Narrator: Bridget sneaks out at night, and took a small boat. She tries to cross to the other side. where Madino castle is, but some of the pirates found out. They sent out some troops to kill her. Bridget took out her bow and arrows and shoot at the pirates. One of her arrows hit the person that's controling the boat, and it spun out of control giveing her more time to escape. While at Madino castle...
Edin: Huh what's that glowing light coming from my draws?
Narrator: Edin opens the draw and see the Holy Bow Inchival glowing brightly.
Edin: Gasp my sister is still alive! I can feel she's... getting close...
Narrator: While at the meeting room Ark and his advisors plans for the up coming battle.
Ark: You guys sure we can do this?
Terranigma Freak: No problem. They're just trying to scare us by saying they've got 1 million troops.
Cherubae: The odds are still bad... but I think we can out smart these pirates.
Terranigma Freak: Yes, and most of them are those dumb Verdane barbarians that we've beaten. They lost and fleed here to join the Orgahill pirates. The barbarians will have a tough time getting use to naval battles. While our troops are well trained.
Yomi: Ark sir, the pirates have been sighted need shore. Just a few of them. They appears to be chasing someone.
Ark: We must help the person the pirates are chasing. They could be innocent villagers.
Narrator: Bridget takes an aim and shot down another pirate, but there's still more coming. She can see Madino castle is not too far away. She ran as fast as she can, but she trips on a rock and fell down. It was late one of the sword fighters caught up to her. He jumps into the air and perpares to kill Bridget. Suddenly the sword fight just fell to the ground. It was prince Jamuka! He was around the area patroling when he heard the noise and came to see what's going on.
Jamuka: Are you alright?
Bridget: ... Yeah I'm alright... and you are?
Jamuka: I'm prince Jamuka. Now's not the time for greetings. We must get out of here.
Narrator: They both ran towards Madino. Luckily Ark and his troops arrived, so the barbarians didn't continue to chase. After arriving back at Madino Ark ask Bridget what happened.
Bridget: Yes I'm the leader of the Orgahill pirates... My men has betray me... You did help me, so I would like to repay you by serving you.
Ark: Great! Tell me, how did you get such large army?
Bridget: Most of them are defeated Verdane barbarians, and other barbarian tribes that were defeated.
Terranigma Freak: So my spy was correct.
Ark: Please don't bring in anymore vampire vegetables. Oh Yomi she must be tired. Show her to the room where she may rest.
Yomi: Right!
Narrator: Edin's Holy Bow Ichival was glowing even brighter.
Edin: She... must be my sister!
Narrator: Edin goes to see Bridget...
Edin: Sister... is that really you?
Bridget: ... Sorry you must have the wrong person...
Edin: It's me Edin remember? When you were 3 years old you were taken away by pirates.
Bridget: ... I can't remember that far back. Everything is just a blur to me...
Edin: This should help you remember. Please mighty god Ulir help her. Our family has the blood of the god Ulir. This is the Holy Bow Ichaval. I can't use it cause the blood of Ulir is not strong in me, but my twin sister however is strong with the force er I mean strong with the blood of Ulir. Please take this.
Narrator: Bridget takes the Holy Bow in her hands. Just as she touches the bow, a bright golden fills the room, and surrounds Bridget.
Bridget: Yes... It's coming back to me... Edin, father, and our younger brother Andrea!
Edin: Oh thank god you remember now... I'm so happy.
Bridget: Sister!
Narrator: *sniff* I love family reunions... Err anyway as they catch up on things, Ark and his advisors are having an important meeting.
Ark: I'm sure you guys agree with me that arrows are good for naval battles.
Cherubae: Right...
Ark: The problem is we don't have enough arrows. Can one of you make 100000 arrows in 10 days? I know the schedule is tight...
Cherubae: Sure I'll do it.
Ark: Great, but can you do it in ten days?
Cherubae 10 days is too much.
Ark: What, then how about 5 days.
Cherubae: I can have them done in 3 days.
Ark: Are you kidding? You realize there's a penalty for not handing them in on time.
Cherubae: Don't worry. If I don't have them ready, I'll personally chop Terranigma Freak's head off.
Terranigma Freak: Hey wait a minute!! Shouldn't it be YOUR head!?
Cherubae: I can't have all the fun now can I?
Terranigma Freak: ... Gee that's so nice of you.
Cherubae: Just help me get all the things I need ready. I need 20 small boats covered with a thick layer of straw, and put lots of scare crows on them.
Narrator: Terranigma Freak prepares all the stuff. Late at night on the 3rd day Cherubae sends someone to wake up Terranigma Freak.
Soldier: Cherubae wishes to see you.
Terranigma Freak: ... mumble gumble... What hell does she want now...
Cherubae: Oh good there you are. Come on it's time to go get the arrows.
Terranigma Freak: Can't this wait till morning?
Cherubae: Come on it'll be fun.
Narrator: Terranigma Freak gets on board and Cherubae order to head for the Orgahill pirate's camp. As they sail a thick fog begins to appear.
Terranigma Freak: Oh great there's a fog. Well at least there's a TV here.
Cherubae: Only one TV, so we'll have to flip for the remote.
Terranigma Freak: Ok... nutz I don't have a quarter.
Cherubae: I have one. HeadsIwintailsyoulose *flip* ha heads I win!
Terranigma Freak: HEY WAIT A MINUTE!
Cherubae: Wha-What?
Terranigma Freak: This is a nickle not a quarter! I deman you flip again!
Cherubae: *flip* Ha tails you lose.
Terranigma Freak: ... NUTZ!
Soldier: We're approching the Orgahill pirate's camps and battle ships.
Cherubae: Good now line up all the boats horizontally, and start shouting and hitting the drums like you were going to attack them.
Narrator: Everybody started making all kinds of noise.
Terranigma Freak: *fart* *fart* *fart*
Cherubae: DAMMIT STOP MAKING FART NOISES WITH YOUR ARMPIT!
Narrator: The pirates thought it was an attack.
Pirate 1: They're launching an attack!
Pirate 2: How can we fight in this thick fog. It must be a trick. Do not send out the troops. Just tell the pirates to shoot arrows at them.
Narrator: All the pirates started to shoot arrows at the boats. The whole place was rain arrows, but all the arrows were caught in the thick layer of straw and the scare crows. After a half hour one side of the boats were covered with arrows.
Cherubae: Ok now turn the boats to the other side.
Narrator: The boats turned around to the other side, and waitedaround an other half hour. The fog was beginning to clear up.
Cherubae: Ok everybody that's enough. Let's leave this place. Oh and why don't we thank them for giving us all the arrows.
Narrator: All the soldiers started laughing and saying thanks for the arrows.
Pirate 1: Ah we've been tricked! If we want to win we must kill Ark's advisors!
Narrator: A man appears to offer some advise. It was Mankind...
Mankind: Terranigma Freak and I had been friends for a long time. Perhaps I can persuade him to join us.
Pirate 1: You think so? Alright you go talk to him and see if you can change his mind.
Narrator: While back at Ark's base everyone was congratulating Cherubae's success.
Ark: WOW that was pure genius tricking those pirates like that. So have you guys figure out a way to beat these pirates?
Cherubae: Well actually yes...
Terranigma Freak: Wait let's write it on paper and see if we're thinking the same trick.
Narrator: Cherubae and Terranigma Freak both wrote something on some paper. When they were both done they showed it to each other. Both of their papers has the words Nuclear Missiles.
Cherubae and Terranigma Freak: HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Terranigma Freak: Well it'll definitly work. We'll nuke them all with those babies. Hell we'll probably nuke half the planet too but as long as it gets the job done.
Cherubae: Yep!
Ark: It's awesome idea. It's pure genius. It'll work perfectly if nuclear missiles were invented.
Cherubae and Terranigma Freak: Ah CRAP! *falls to the floor like Super Mario RPG*
Cherubae: Well then we'll have to use fire.
Terranigma Freak: Even if we set one of the shipps on fire the other pirate ships can still escape.
Cherubae: Then we'll chain them up, so they can't escape.
Terranigma Freak: Hmm good idea, but how are you going to get them to chain up their ships?
Cherubae: Well that's the easy part. More importantly how to I get to talk to them...
Soldier: Someone by the name of Mankind is here to see you Terranigma Freak.
Terranigma Freak: Oh perfect I have an idea...
Narrator: Mankind enters and was greeted by Terranigma Freak.
Mankind: Long time no see old friend.
Terranigma Freak: Yes it's great to see you. What are you doing here?
Mankind: Huh... oh well just here to visit you.
Terranigma Freak: Come on let's sit down to talk.
Mankind: So do you enjoy working here?
Terranigma Freak: Yeah of course I do.
Mankind: You know I can offer you an even better job.
Terranigma Freak: Oh?
Mankind: If you come work for the Orgahill pirates I'm sure they'll pay you twice of what this place pay you.
Terranigma Freak: NEVER! I'll never work for such scums!
Mankind: Wait wait if you don't want money what about women?
Terranigma Freak: Is that so... GUARDS TAKE HIM AWAY!!!
Mankind: Bu-But... You wouldn't kill your own friend?
Terranigma Freak: I'm loyal to my lord, and I will never serve low lifes. See that you and I are friends I'll lock you up, and set you free once this is over. TAKE HIM AWAY!!!
Narrator: Mankind was taken to a big house not too far from the camp, and locked him in there. That night Mankind couldn't sleep so he decided to look around. He saw a light coming from one of the other rooms. He looked inside and saw someone inside reading something. He decided to to ask.
Mankind: Hello my name is Mankind, and who might you be?
Cherubae: I'm Cherubae...
Mankind: OH! THE CHERUBAE!?
Cherubae: You heard of me?
Mankind: Yes I've heard from Terranigma Freak that you were a genius at war tactics, and base camp setting.
Cherubae: ...
Mankind: So what are you doing here?
Cherubae: *sigh* That fool Terranigma Freak didn't listen to my advise. I try to talk some sense into him, but he got angry and locked me here...
Narrator: Just then Lex and Azel came in.
Mankind: Who?
Lex: We're here to set you and Cherubae free.
Azel: Yeah we want to surrender to the Orgahill pirates. We need you're help. That jerk Terranigma Freak will lead us to our doom.
Lex: We also need you to deliver a message to the Orgahill pirate boss. 3 days from now well steal their provision and deliver it to you. Without provision the soldiers can't fight.
Cherubae: Alright I'll join the Orgahill pirates. You guys get outta here and I'll go with Mankind to the Orgahill pirates.
Narrator: Mankind and Cherubae quickly escaped back on to Mankind's boat. They made their way back to the Orgahill pirates, and told them everything.
Pirate 1: Well how did it go?
Mankind: I couldn't turn Terranigma Freak but I did get Cherubae to join us.
Pirate 1: Oh Cherubae the mighty war tactical advisor?
Narrator: The pirates invited Cherubae to feast. She discussed war tactics and base camp settings.
Cherubae: Tell me. Do you have many doctors here? I'm sure you troops can get sea sick.
Pirate 1: No, we don't. I really need more doctors. Most of my men are barbarians. When there are big waves they get sea sick.
Cherubae: Well you know if you get some large chains and chain up your ships then no matter how big the waves the ships won't bop up and down.
Pirate 1: That is a great idea! I'll get right on it.
Narrator: The pirates started making big chains to chain up their ships.
Cherubae: I'll go back to find more people that want to join the Orgahill pirates.
Pirate 1: Alright, and you said that someone will bring us ALL of Ark's provision?
Cherubae: Yes, 3 days from now.
Narrator: Cherubae leaves, and heads back to Ark's base.
Terranigma Freak: Well how did it go?
Cherubae: Man I'll probably get an Oscar for this. Ok they fell for it. The rest is all up to you. I have to go home, and play Everquest. Oh I want you to know if this fails it's not my I'll write something nice for you on your funeral.
Terranigma Freak: Gee thanks. Alright people it's time to prepare for the final battle. Levin since your the master of the wind you go and use your magic to make to wind blow in the pirate's direction so the fire can spread easily. Azel and Lex since you guys said you'll bring them the goods your incharge of setting the ships to fire.
Narrator: Everybody got their orders and went to work. They prepared tons of boats loaded with dried grass and other things to burn. On the 3rd day the Pirates finished chaining up all their ships. Now their battleships were sailing as smooth as walking on land(those of you that don't believe can try it yourself. Just make sure nobody wants to burn your ass). Now the pirates were ready. Soon in the distance they saw some boats coming towards them.
Pirate 1: Ah it must be those people the are here to surrender to us.
Narrator: The boats were coming at high speed.
Lex: Alright Azel do your fire magic.
Narrator: Azel set all the ships on fire and they jumped on to their small escape boat. With the wind blowing them the boats slammed right at the pirates battle ships and sets them all on fire. With their ships all chained together there was no escape. The fire spreaded quickly burning the pirates, and their battleships. The sea was glowing bright red, as the sound of the pirates screaming for their lives.

(This battle will be known forever as the Flame War... God they should of gotten some of the guys at our messageboard to go fight too;)

Pirate 1: Ah my ass is on fire!!
Narrator: Ark's troops arrived and the battle begun. The pirates were too busy trying to escape with their lives. Some of the pirates got on land but was ambushed. While not too far away in the tower of Balggi...
Father Claude: Come on let's help with the fight.
Tiltyu: Yeah well get to take some credit for this too. CHARGEEEEEE!!!
Claude and Tiltyu: AYYYYIIIIIEEEEE there's some guy coming at us. Go back inside!!!!
Ark: Err it's just me.
Father Claude: Right I knew that. Oh I know who is trying to frame your family.
Ark: WHO!?
Ark: What the lord of Dozel and the Prime Minister of Grandbell!? I heard they were up to no good!!! But first we must take care of these pirates.
Narrator: The battle was soon over, and they've defeated impossible odds. Just as Ark and his troops heads back to Agusty. Just when they were about to reach Agusty a large Grandbell army appears and takes Agusty. It was Leptor and Rangabolt.
Leptor: The Chalphy family has commited murder. Byron has killed prince Kult.
Rangabolt: By order of the King we are here to capture the son of Byron. There is no escape!
Ark: NO!!!
Yomi: Sir, we must retreat back to the Orgahill pirate's hideout.
Ark: NO! I can't let them do this.
Terranigma Freak: No we must not fight retreat is the best option.
Narrator: Ark and his troops retreated. Just as they arrived back some Pegasus knights appeared.
Manya: Lord Ark the Kingdom of Silesia has recived information from Father Claude. We know what happened. We're here to help you.
Ark: How...
Manya: Come with us to Kingdom of Silesia. The queen are friends with the Chalphy family. She'll help you.
Ark: Well what do you think Yomi?
Yomi: We have no choice we must leave.
Ark: Alright... but what about Elle... I hope she's alright...
Narrator: Ark and all his troops fled to Silesia to hide and figure things out.
