Well, this story was pretty much dead, but it got dredged up while I was feeling bored, and I had this chapter almost finished, so I decided to finish this chapter. This chapter is much longer than normal, due to the fact I wanted to include the first few seconds of the battle of Seer's village.
666- I have a large amount of characters already. And the only JMod I planned to include in this story doesn’t survive the battle of Seer’s Village. Rat- Your character appears in this chapter. Tahu- yes, Tahu gets his crossbow back.
Chapter 9
The Ambush
“Autoers? Take over Gielinor? They’re horrible at fighting! A few dozen good knights could wipe all of them out…” Tahu said. “I’m afraid not. They have a new weapon that could, if used properly, destroy a city the size of Falador in less than an hour. ” “WHAT?!?” Daran exclaimed. “It will be a hard task, but you three must stop it. If you three do not stop it, I fear the world of Gielinor will fall.” “How are three people supposed to stop something that powerful?” Jessy asked. “By preventing it from ever existing.” “How are we supposed to do that?” “By stopping it from being built. Use the fairy ring code AQE to destroy what’s left of it.” “Allright, who are you? Why are you giving us this information?” “I am ….” at this point a voice came from somewhere “What’s Guthx up to?” “I think he is teleporting something” another voice answered. “TELEPORTING!?! That’s a direct violation of the Third Age Treaty!” the first voice put in. “Why are you telling us this?” Daran repeated. “Because the autoers will destroy the balance” “OH” Daran stated, realizing that he was speaking to Guthx. There was the sound of someone running, then a loud crash. “You must hurry to seer’s village. You will meet a group there and they will teach you how to use ‘Report’.…” before it could finish what it was saying, another being appeared, and fired a teleport spell at Daran. The world went purple as they began to teleport. Before he passed out from the teleport’s effects, he heard a voice growl “Teleporting mortals into this realm is a direct violation of the Third Age Treaty that you yourself created!”
Seer’s village, ten minutes later.
Three people walked up the road to Seer’s village talking excitedly about something. “…I never actually used “Report” before ” Tahu stated. “but I heard somewhere that it does enormous amounts of damage to Autoers.” “ from what I understand “Report” can only damage Autoers and dishonest people. Normal, honest people are immune to it.” Jessy said. “In case you didn’t notice, I was captured by the Autoers. If someone fires “report” at me It could very well do as much damage to me as it does to an Autoer” “Well, when they used you to attack the temple knight castle I fired a report spell at you and it seemed to disconnect you from their mind control…” “Unit 15243. Report status and re-assign yourself to the garrison at Seer’s village.” Tahu stated, in a voice much higher than his normal one. “What was that?!” Daran asked. “What was what?” Tahu replied “You just stated “Unit 15432. Report status and re-assign yourself to the group at Seer’s village” in the weirdest voice. Sounded almost like a machine. ” “I did not say anything.” “Yes, you did” “No, I didn’t” “Yes, you did” “No, I didn’t” “Daran’s right. You did say something about re-assigning yourself to a group at Seer’s village.” “I didn’t say anything!” “Yes you did! I heard you!” “I DID NOT!” The argument would have gone on, but Daran was busy arguing and not watching where he was going.
Rat 611 was standing, arguing about the price of yew logs, and not aware of the three people walking toward him.
“Yes, you…oof!” Daran stated, as he collided with Rat, sending them both sprawling. “Ouch!” Rat commented, picking himself up. “Sorry” Daran said, scrambling to his feet. “I was thinking about the Autoer problem and not watching where I was going.” “No, it was my fault for standing in the middle of the street” Rat replied “and the Autoers are a worry to everyone. Inflation is getting rampant these days.” “Well, I was just given a quest to stop them from building some sort of super-weapon.” “What kind of a weapon?” “All I was told is that it could level a city the size of Falador in less than an hour.” “That sounds dangerous! Can I join your quest?” “Jessy? Tahu? What do you think?” “We could probably use another warrior” Tahu said. “I agree” Jessy put in. “Then I guess you can join!” Daran said “Good. Where are we going?” Rat asked. “I assume that that is the group we were supposed to meet?” Jessy stated a moment later, seeing a large group of people walking up the road from East Ardugne. “I assume that’s them, considering that most of them are moderators, and I think one of them is a J-moderator.” Rat stated. “What’s a J-moderator?” Daran thought, as he walked toward the moderators, which was quickly and quietly surrounding a group of autoers. The four adventurers had just reached the group when a bolt flew out of nowhere and struck the ground near Tahu’s feet. Quickly, Tahu looked for whatever had launched it, but saw nothing. Then a few more bolts flew out of the nearby trees. A second later, most of the moderators were praying for protection from arrows as they returned fire. Daran, however, had never been much good at praying, and was only able to ask for protection from magical attacks.
“Charge primary weapons!” Stip ordered, as he angled his huge machine until its powerful weapons were pointed at Daran. “Prepare for firing” Stip ordered, as he pulled the lever that began the firing sequence.
