I got bored while waiting, so heres chapter 1 part 1

“ Where … where am I? … What… What is that? Wait … why is it coming at me? W-W-W-Why can’t I move? Ohshitohshitohsh- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”

I bolted upright, panting for air.

“ Damn … its that nightmare again…” I said to myself.

My clothes were completely drenched in sweat and my hands were cold and clammy. I stared at the clock opposite my bed. It was 3 o’clock in the morning and it was raining outside.

As I lay in bed, listening to the rain pouring outside, I thought to myself, “ Why do keep having the same nightmare? … And what exactly does it mean? “ I then let out a sigh and got out of bed.

I stumbled my way to the kitchen, not even bothering to wash my face or brush my teeth. I opened the fridge, hoping that I left something that was actually edible for breakfast. Turned out I only had in my fridge a bunch of leftovers from yesterday’s dinner. I chucked the leftovers into the microwave and shuffled into the bathroom for a shower.

When I got out of the shower, I smelt something burning. I rushed over to the microwave and discovered, to my horror, that the leftovers were burnt. “ Herp Derp , well I guess I can eat at HQ’s cafeteria …” I mumbled to myself.

I hastily put on my ash tail coat and helm, which were the only armors I owned. They were tailored for swordsmen, and since I cannot hit a target with a gun even at close range, the ash tail set was perfect for me.

Then I snatched up the rest of my equipment, which I left lying around and unlocked my front door.

As I left my apartment I spotted the smothering ruin that was the bazaar, I clenched my fist in anger as I looked at it. The bazaar was an unfortunate victim of the gremlin’s ‘Project R’, which was discovered when the order did a raid of the iron claw munitions factory. Unfortunately the force that the spiral order sent was not strong enough, and only a few of the mega-gunpuppies that were the products of ‘Project R’ were destroyed, resulting in a gremlin victory as one of the monstrosities was sent up to the surface, destroying a big part of the bazaar.

The gremlins, from the start, were not very happy with the intrusion of the spiral order on their home planet, cradle, and peace talks with the gremlins were failures as the gremlins simply ionized any knight that came close the their ‘great colony’.

The tensions between the knights and the gremlins came to a break point when the previous king of the gremlins, king tinzinkar, who had apparently made the clockworks mysteriously disappeared. He disapproved of the notion of war with us, so when he disappeared the first thing the gremlins did was to go to war with the spiral order.

The war had raged on for many years, and with increasing amounts of wounded on both sides, pressuring the race for a mega-weapon that would eliminate the enemy and end the war, like ‘Project R’.

The order has been researching on a certain particle, that when compressed, can be used to make weapons of mass destruction. Lieutenant Feron , whose is overseeing the project, hopes that the weapon can be used to end the war.

Meanwhile, many squads of knights have been sent down into the clockworks to stall the gremlins from advancing into haven and to buy time for the project to be completed. However, the gremlins have broken though our so-called ‘ defense line’, and Lieutenant Feron has been sped up the project, in hopes of completion before the gremlins reach haven.

The wailing of the emergency siren suddenly interrupted my stream of thoughts, and explosions were heard from the direction of the arcade. I raced down the steps from the apartment block and saw squads of ironclaw thwacker gremlins streaming out of the arcade. I grip my silent nightblade in anticipation, ‘Looks like I don’t need to have breakfast now … ‘ I think to myself.

You're in !

By the way, mind if i change your character's equipment a bit ?

Sorry if i don't post the chapters often, i am often busy and don't have time for the fan-fic, anyways , heres part two of chapter 1 !

Not caring much for stealth, I rushed up to the gremlins and unsheathed the silent nightblade , and in one swift motion, cut down the gremlins thwacker that was the leader of the troop.

It was just then that I noticed that there were still 3 gremlins left. I rolled my eyes “ Well, looks like its three on one now” I mumbled under my breath.

All three of the gremlins charged at me, hammers aloft. I raised my sword and blocked one of the gremlins, and used my shield to block the other. Using all my strength, I pushed both of them backwards, and the 3rd gremlin, who was running at me, tripped on this comrade’s foot. I then stabbed the unfortunate gremlin in the head, killing him instantly, following which, I took his body and chucked it at the two gremlins, who were still recovering from the fall, and knocked them to the ground again. I then executed them with a swift slice though both of their necks.

As I stood up again, I was knocked over by another thwacker, which took me by complete surprise.

“Darnit!” I thought to myself.

I was knocked to the ground, and when I picked myself up, the thwacker was already on me, hammer raised.

“ Trabias ! DUCK!”

I knelt down and two blobs of fiery globs impacted onto the gremlin’s face. As it was clawing at its blistered face I stabbed it through the heart with my silent nightblade.

“ Hey Trab be more careful next time, I might not be around to save you then,”.
“oh, hey there critzer, thanks for saving my life, I owe you one.”
Critzer smiled,
“there’s no need to say that we’re friends, and friends watch each others backs, right? “

Critzer was my next door neighbor, and my friend from the academy, and has the reputation of being one of the fastest knights to ascend to 4* star armor.

“By the way, have you seen tyrorx around yet? He left his gun at my apartment and forgot to take it-“

Suddenly, a knight in cobalt armor staggered from the town square and collapsed on the floor. Critzer and I ran to him.

“Whats going on ? “ Critzer asked.

“ The gremlins… Burning … town square… “ the knight mumbled, before passing out from his injuries.

“ The gremlins are burning the town square? … Trabias! go there quickly and see if you can help, I have to bring this knight to the medic.” “Got it Critz” I picked up my silent nightblade and raced to the town square.

Hmm... Interesting... Okie vinny you're in.

A short intro for the gremlin character, M'ak, enjoy!

Chapter 2 part 1

“ M’ak! Wake up you little Grimp! The commander wants everyone gathered at the elevator!”
“ Alright, I’m getting up ,don’t get all fussy about it E'sok … “

I yawned and propped myself up, my partner, E’sok, was at the entrance of my tent.

“You awake yet sleepyhead? “

Typical E’sok, Always the impatient type.

“Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, now shoo off , I need to change”

“Whatever, and remember to pack up, cos I heard we’re moving, “ Replied E’sok before she sauntered off to her tent.

I let out a deep sigh and begun gearing up for the day.

The camp was bustling with activity. Supplies were being packed,
Weapons sharpened, and tents being dismantled. After packing up my tent and my other belongings, I strolled over to E’sok’s tent, or what was her tent, that is.
She had just finished packing up her belongings. I leaned on a nearby rock wall, and looked as she heaved her tent and belongings unto her back.

“Ever thought of giving me a hand m’ak?”

“Nah, you’re strong enough, I known you long enough already. “
She shrugged.
“Guess I can’t keep anything from you.”

“Meh, Anyway, do you know why we’re moving?”

“Its anyone’s guess, maybe the commander might tell us”

“Race you to the elevator?”

“Last one there’s a rotten knight!”

We both laughed, and sprinted off to the elevator.
