Chapter 5; Knights' Hint: 11:12
Different knights equals to different outcomes, different monsters lead to different consequences, all this is based on is the quality of the two and their bravery.
Ghigxhalon was heading to a Deconstruction Zone, ordered by the Spiral Order that there have been gremlins killing more knights there than anywhere else. Of course, a knight given an order by the Spiral Order would believe that finding a gremlin, and silencing it, would be easy. Ghig didn't think of that as he headed to the tier 3 floor. Once he got there, he got off and held out his Blizzbrand, in any cause of a gremlin appearing out of nowhere. He saw that it was clear and headed to a line of metal blocks and hid behind them. One thing he didn't notice while heading there, was that there was a small Grimalkin there as well. When he heard the roar the Grimalkins' make, he turned to look and saw that it was right next to him, jumping when he saw it. "What are you doing here? Isn't your kind in Candlestick Keep?" Ghig calmed down when he saw that it wasn't going to do any harm to him. "I'm sorta here because of the bigger Grimalkins. I ran here to hide, and hopefully no one notices that a small Grimalkin gone. My name is Ztype, what's yours?" "Mine is Ghigxhalon, call me Ghig. Hey since you're here, want to help me out with something?" Ghig petted on Ztypes' head and surprisingly, he purred. "Okay, I got nothing else to do." Then they heard someone talking in the background. Ghig motioned his hand to get low, and he looked over the top of a block.
"Please, don't talk about your weapons anymore, sir." The gremlin was a Darkfang Thwacker, his hammer in his hand but there was also another gremlin, this one looked much more different from the Thwacker. "But I bet you've never saw this weapon before. I named it Endpoint, sharpest blade that I ever saw in the armory. But other than that, you are still new to this place as there are more experienced gremlins here, then soon you'll be in the Crimson Order like I am." He had a sword brighter than a Levi held to the sun, his clothes were darker than the Thwackers' and a red insignia that no knight have ever saw, were on over where there used to be the gremlins' insignias.
Ghig looked on, got out a camera, and took a picture of the gremlin with the weapon called 'Endpoint' and the one next to him. He dropped the camera back in his pack, lucky it didn't hit any of the other items he had in there. "I'm guessing that's the gremlin who caused all those deaths." Ghig gripped on his sword tighter, looking as the gremlins walked closer to the blocks. "Why are you here anyways?" Ztype whispered to him, aware at how close the gremlins were now. "I was sent here by the Spiral Order to eliminate the gremlins here, but my prime target is the one who killed the knights passing here, that I'm guessing is the one with black clothing. Sure you wanna help?" "Yes, I'm sure. We could get the Thwacker first then deal with the other one soon." Ztype saw the Thwacker walk farther ahead of the other one and looked back at Ghig to see what his reaction would be to the plan. "I can see why you would want to get the Thwacker first, depending on how far away he gets, also that the gremlin might be easier to take out."
As soon as the Thwacker walked past the blocks, Ghig grabbed him by the leg, pulled him towards them, then Ztype bit down on the gremlins' head. A blood-wrenching scream was heard throughout the Deconstruction Zone, but the gremlins just thought that it was just another knight meeting their fate by the Crimson Order member that was there. As soon as Arus saw that happened, he jumped on top of Ghig and started to choke him. Ztype flew up and pushed Arus off, causing the two to roll off to the side. Ghig ran up to Arus and let the charge of his Blizzbrand go, causing Arus' right arm to become immobilize. Arus jumped up and landed on an overhead beam, holding his Endpoint up and ready as Ztype flew at him with an open mouth, and Arus saw for a moment, that the teeth gleamed white. Sidestepping to the side and swinging the sword in a downward position, he made a deep gash in the little Grimalkins' side. He watched as Ztype fell to the ground with a thud and a yelp, but then got hit in the back of the head by a piece of metal which a gremlin had left. He gained his balance soon and swung his froze arm on the beam. Waving his arm around a bit to get the blood flowing again, he jumped down and was greeted by a Jalovec charge attack that missed him centimeters away from his head.
Swinging the Jalovec again, Ghig made contact with Arus in the leg, same thing happened as Arus got Ghig in the arm. Both grimaced against the pain, and saw that they were losing a great deal of blood. "See you later in the future, knight." Arus chuckled and started to limp away faster than anyone with a deep wound in their leg. Ghig looked over to where Ztype was and walked towards him. The wound in his side wasn't too severe but Ghig got out a gauze that he brings in cause of an emergency like this. Wrapping it around the Grimalkin, he tied it off and tried to heave Ztype onto one of his shoulders. He started walking towards the elevator, gently dropping Ztype onto the platform, walked towards the button then pushed it up. He saw a small note taped above the button, he pulled it down, opened it and what it read:
You are a lucky knight, as is with others that have faced him,
you are not alone, for the journey ahead needs knights with bravery and courage,
to save the new home they found and an old home they have lived in.
You must not tell anyone of this letter cause that will alter the future.
I wish you luck, knight.
He looked on the back and flipped it over again but found nothing that could point out who wrote it. Soon he folded it and put it in a pouch where he kept smaller important things. The pain soon started to become excruciating, he gripped on his arm, sat down then saw nothing.
