Chapter 1
The lumbering brute stopped and chuckled in a low booming voice. Yani Reno dropped to her knees, tears streaming down her flushed face. The brute lowered a large, rough hand on her head. Yani screamed and punched it, but with no effect. The brute angered by her attempt to fight back so he let out an ear splitting roar, flinging saliva everywhere, even on her. Yani thought about her options and she knew she couldn’t get away from the brute. They were enormous but they were also fast. Yani thought about her guard for only a split second, full of rage, before curling up to await her fate. The brute raised his clever slowly in the air and started to swing. “You said you’d protect me!”
Yani heard a loud clash of metal to metal and a familiar male voice yell. “And I will!” completely surprised by the voice, Yani opened her eyes and raised her head. It was her faithful guard, Jampton! Jampton was a tall lanky man, looking almost like a child in his oversized steel armor suit that was given to Sacred Guards. His sword was drawn and his shield was up near his chest, all of which gleamed in the desert sun. The Brute stood confused, his slow mind still not grasping what just happened. Jampton stood as the gap between the Brute and his friend Yani, which wasn’t that far.
Jampton turned back to Yani, a smirk was glued to his face, the only part of him not covered by armor. Yani scowled; still petrified by almost getting killed and angry that it took so long for Jampton to show up. Jampton playfully said. “Don’t be like that.”
When Yani didn’t respond he turned back to the brute and proceeded to taunt the now aware oaf. “I thought your kind worked faster than this.”
Jampton waved his sword around, showing off his skills with his sword. The b brute, in response to his display, pointed the end of his giant cleaver at Jampton and drew it back towards him, ready to strike. “And I thought your kind was smarter than this.” They both chuckled, their bodies bouncing as they laughed. “I guess stereotypes aren’t that true then.” Jampton ignored the brute and turned back towards Yani and said in a comforting voice, since she was still shaking. “I’ll be with you shortly madame. Go on ahead and I’ll catch up.”
“Hey! Look at me when I’m talking to you fleshy!” The brute stomped a massive foot and roared at him. “You all and your roaring…Go along now Yani, we’ll talk later I promise.”
