The Line (Side quest Part 1 of 3)

[Enzair]

“you there move down the line! Mount that cannon! Do not let them get those towers over here! We cannot let them through! Hold the line!” Commanded Enzair as he held both his Katana’s his shadow katana in his right and the normal in his left. Whenever a hostile monster or soldier have to close, he would strike them down.

“their Re-enforcements are here,” whispered his sword in Enzair’s mind.

“Their Re-enforcements arrived! We must hold the line…” commanded Delta before being interrupted by an attacking monster of which he struck down, most of the enemies pawns were easy to kill if one does not give them a chance to swing their weapon, but once a squad of elites came down it became a fight to death. Delta’s Shirt was torn halfway and down..

(as seen in the picture of my character)

Boom! Went the bridge on the other side of castle town, that line has fallen the doors were then closed and what men retreated came to re-enforce the other two. “hold the Line men do not let it Fall!” Commanded Delta once again.

Boulders launched from the enemy catapults and cannon fire from their cannons continued to zip across the sky above their heads into the city, and the fire from the line and wall continued to fire back but at a much slower pace sense, there were far less catapults and cannons on our side.

“Get out of they way!” yelled a soldier as a boulder came flying in and landed on a few soldiers after rolling through the swarm of enemies first. Those misfires were sometimes grateful sense they killed more enemies then allies but every soldier was needed a single downed soldier was a great loss because it continued to thin the line. The south entrance held strong for it was a narrow path and a few can hold it off but there were many just incase they sent a few Giants or juggernauts their way.

Nestor thought his days of fighting were long behind him. He also knew something was brewing, something big. He had no idea his home would be taken and he would be fighting a horde of monsters. Despite being in the heat of battle, he still had a smile on his face.

He engaged turtle battle mode as he climbed to his rear legs and began to throw punches and kicks like lightning. Even now he still had strength, and he knew he had to use it.

"So this is how it ends for me. Fighting hordes of monsters until I am engulfed. Well, destiny is destiny, I cannot avoid it." He continued his monologue through all of the punches and kicks thrown, taking down monsters like he had trained his entire life for this. He had no commander, just himself and the voice of his old master speaking to him.

I came back from one of my travels aboard the pirate ship Defiant to see my family, yet when I arrive in Hyrule Field on my way home, I'm attacked by strange beings, the likes of which I'd never seen before, and I retaliate using both of my swords, which I hadn't done in a while, as I've only used one at a time for quite awhile.

Why must Man wage war?[/b][/color]

I run into the fray, slashing my assailants to and fro, until I find more people that look more like me.

What happened here?
Why is there a war now, after we've been living in times of peace for so long?!
Whoever's responsible shall pay for putting innocent lives in danger![/b][/color]

The sounds of blades clashing and blood being forcefully spilled, fills the Minish woman's ears. She battles her enemy, with a rapier in hand. Parrying it's attack, creating an opening in which she can attack. With one thrust of her sword, she aims for it's heart. She partook in this battle, for her children. You wouldn't know it from looking at her, that she has had three children. Time has been, for the most part, very good to her.

Now she fights, dressed in black with a mask covering her face, to keep her children safe.

OOC: this what you about to read is epic and in detail, all this unfolds in a short period of time counting the time of the battleing, falling back to get suited runing back in and more fighting. ALL IS WELCOME PLEASE JOIN IN XD

Horns sounded in the distance, after loping off the head of one foe and gutting another he turned to look and seen a battalion of Elite soldiers marching orderly down the field. The thought that ran through delta’s head was that the line would fall and that they would have to fall back a blow the bridge then hold the South Line at the southern Hyrule fields. However, that was not the only thing in the Enemies elite Ranks; there were giant monsters there as well ones he had never seen before.

The turtle master was fast, one would normally think such a creature would only be a defender not an attacker, arrows would bounce off his shell both back and front only his legs arms and head were vulnerable, this however would be no use against a boulder or cannon fire. Either way, he was quick sure footed and the lighter enemies would tumble through the horde knocking then down like bowling pins. Strike! Ten down… for the moment.

Delta was a master himself, his blades were elegant, a blur of motion, movements powerful enough to knock the weapon out of the enemies hand, blade grappling that broke their arms, kicks that spun the heads like a top of the weaker body built monsters and soldiers,and occasionally waves of Telekinetic energy that knocked down ranks upon ranks of enemies, the closer they were the further they flew. Performing a complete successful backflip to avoid flying boulders before they hit and having them tumble off the edge of the cliff behind them but not before taking a few men or a catapult with it.

Flipping his sword around in his hand and lunging it in the heart of a foe behind him all the while blocking a blade strike from another enemy before swinging the other sword around and loping of his head.

Delta was covered in the bloody treats of the battle, dirt here, blood here from hostiles both black and red. The hoard of monsters thinned out as many died others fleeing only to be struck down by the volley of arrows constantly pelting the landscape most of which pinging off the armor and shields of the elite forces.

Delta noticed a man running down through the hoard of monsters slashing his way through killing some immobilizing others. He was either brave or crazy to run through them, if he ran across a commander wile surrounded by hoards of monsters and hostile human pawns without support, he would surely be injured or worse. In effect Delta launched a wave across the side of the new Allie, effectively clearing a path for him as he came running through, he will just have to book it if he is to close the distance before the enemies fill the path that he had just cleared.

In doing so the hostiles backed off of delta fearing he would swat them like flies only because the commander of this 30 man and monster platoon of pawns was sent for a joyride tumbling through the air some 100 yards away before impaling onto a juggernauts massive sword, his armor did little to help the issue for the juggernaut had a hard time getting the dead hoard commander off.

Delta took this time to temporarily fall back to rest and get his new armor on, it had arrived earlier today but had not time to put it on when they were suddenly attacked, he figured the Kong-Fu master turtle the elite Pirate fellow and the Female with the Rapier can the three minish could take care of his position while Delta put on his light weight but strong armor. His armor was a copied style of the Magic armor; this magicless yet high quality metal armor was given to him for his outstanding efforts on the line a few nights ago

When he got to the tent near the bridge delta ran in and quickly ordered some of the elite allied soldiers to help him put on his armor while Delta removed his cloak and battered and torn shirts. After firmly fitting on his armor the soldiers roughly hit his shoulder letting Delta know everything is secure armor, belt, and his sword sheaths, everything Delta ran back out to his line some enemies running at the site of the golden clad knight, seeing now he is going to be much harder to kill. The armor was very light and did not hinder his movements or his wings, as he ran he could see the elite forces in small numbers run out of rank straight into battle, they were trying to soften us up.

“Cannons! Fire!” Delta Commanded as he pointed his sword towards the elite hostiles. The cannons fired taking down several elites only few died those are the ones taking the brute force of the cannon ball flying through the air, the rest who were knocked down and uninjured got back up and quickly filled the front rank before falling out to attack the line.

Arrows pinged off their armor, only occasionally hitting them on the neck just above their armor or burrowing into their eye, or even nailing their foot to the ground. The line was quickly running out of ammunition for the cannons and catapults, the archers had plenty, a single log can produce hundreds of arrows and the town was stalked full of logs and wooden remains of buildings, the only problem was getting feathers, if they ran out of those they would have to start using whatever can suffice for feathers on an arrow, and we are low on feathers as is.

“hold the line!” Commanded Delta once more knowing the situation is dire.

The elites were difficult, their unknown style of martial arts was hard to combat regardless that delta knew the deadliest known combat styles, his styles still rivaled his enemies but the unfamiliar style made Delta seem like a rookie again. The elites in their black and red clad armor moved swiftly and struck hard. Delta did much more blocking then striking against these foes every time he tried to blade grapple them they would either turn the tide or slide out of it like a slimy worm would as it wiggled out of one’s hand. Sometimes when he performed a roundhouse kick or some other deadlier swifter move the would dodge it or grapple his foot, though every time they did that he would come in with the other and knock them silly and land on his feet to avoid being diced by their swords.

He wondered how the Kong-Fu turtle faired against such skilled opponents, Delta knew more styles than his turtle comrade but the turtle was older and knew his style like first nature. Regardless he was in for a dance with death just like Delta is just now as he combated the elites killing only a couple here and there. At one point he head-locked an elite commander and threw him over his shoulder knocking down a few others before leaping over and smiting them all in a single quick and swift strike.

Delta saw an elite arched release a volley of three arrows at him he brought his swords up in their path splitting them in two and hearing them zip past his head before burrowing into the ground behind him. The third pinged of the edge of his armor and burrowed into the head of the Pawn Hoard monster.

All this happened in a relatively short time. Delta could go on for a few more hours but he was becoming exhausted surly but slowly. The enemy had to pull back to their hold in at the other side of the field soon, they were wearing thin, as was the line, the Goron’s on the line here did their job as tanks and literal well tanks by crushing and rolling over the hoard of enemies like ants under a boot, that is until they came across a juggernaut. However there were only a few Goron’s here and they were the ones in the city when the attack began, so that made only four, two were on the other side of the city on the east side but fell back here after the line fell and the bridge was blown up. We needed them on this line, which was good because it really helped west line the south line can hold its own for the enemy can only come in single file through the narrow path.

The Goron’s would bludgeon a hoard monster and everyone would hear its cries as it either flew over the cliff edge to death or tumbled into the hoard crowed impaling itself on dozens of swords and spears like a ragdoll.

OOC: (The Magic armor found in twilight princes, but is not the same, it is a decorated commander’s armor, which looks like the magic armor, but has no enchanted qualities, just a copy of high quality metal. However the headpiece is just the metal part like a crown around his head no long pointed wizard like hat, like link does. Essentially it’s a knock off version of high quality metal)

[nestor]

Nestor continued his flurry of blows as the numbers began to swarm. He had to be economical with his attacks, using one to take out many just to keep the battle in his favor.

He noticed that he had been fighting alongside a couple of old friends as the battle progressed, but was too focused to say anything to them. Once he got in the zone, he had no other option but to fight, especially now with momentum being key. Spears broke against his shell and arrows did nothing but ping off. The blur of battle would drive a normal man to dizziness simply watching it all, but it would soon be time for a rest, Nestor couldn't keep this up for much longer.

[Enzair]

(OOC: it has been more than 2 days all who have not posted have been skipped, you can still respond to my previous post, but we still have to get this going. come one people please we need a aposing force! we need some bad guys to command the enemy otherwise its just going to get harder to acomidate for the lack of players cammanding the Invading force)

“Nestor!” yelled Delta “We need to take down those Siege Tank's before they reach the line if they get through, the line will fall, I’ll take care of the other one!” Yelled out Delta, the situation was getting desperate those siege tanks were just an armored shell packed with high explosives with the walls lined with shrapnel, which could do serious damage. only 2 monsters were inside it, two trolls, one in back pushing one in front pulling and guiding it to its target, it was their suicide but two deaths is fine if your killing dozens or hundreds. They could easily dismantle the line, blow a bridge or take down a wall if placed right.

But that was not all this enemy had, they had catapults like nothing ever seen, it spun like a mill, yet only had three ends, it was ran by gears and powered by titans of monsters it would pick up an rounded boulder and launch it across the battlefield, it fired 3 rounds a second.

Delta charged down the line towards one of the Siege tanks to attempt to take it down any way possible without killing himself or any allied soldier. He only hoped Nestor would be successful, Delta slashed his way through. Because of where the siege tanks were if they were to blow it would take out plenty of the Enemies Elite forces. At almost being crushed by one of the catapults boulders Delta Launched the Dark Bolt back at the catapult which hit it at its pivot points causing it to fall apart and crush anyone unfortunate to stand so close to it. The cannons from the line already took out two of them earlier, because of this, the enemy hastily begins to pull back the catapults before any more were destroyed. The men at the back of the line cried in victory of eliminating the catapults and causing the rest to move back.

Delta ran up to the tank he aimed his sword to the narrow slot the troll was looking out but before he could actually make it a juggernaut swing his mace and knocked Delta away. Delta Cursed himself for not noticing the giant, his armor saved his rib cage from shattering against the heavy lead weighted mace. The troll swung down upon Delta where he rolled out of the way where he heard it smash against the ground just feet from crushing his wing.

When he flipped himself back upright, the juggernaut just kicked him back down. With the juggernaut placing his foot down on Delta holding him down the Juggernaut rose up his mace readying for the killing blow, Delta threw up his Katana right into the trolls eye where he then fell backwards dead freeing delta from its heavy foot. Delta quickly retrieved his sword and went back after the tank quickly killing the guiding troll, which slowed the movement of the tank by 50% yet it, was still heading on target. At the same time he fought the enemies off the tank like king of the hill he thought of how in the hell he was going to stop this thing.

[nestor]

Nestor knew the best way to take out the tank.

Quickly he waded threw the sea of bodies, both living and dead, making his way to the tank. Quickly he hopped in, rigged the tank to blow, avoided some hits by the brutal trolls, and quickly hid in his nuclear fallout shelter shell.

The shell was an impenetrable field, one that would shield him from the incoming explosion.

[Enzair]

Slashing down a foe he jumped down in front of the tank, and launched a kinetic wave, up at it effectively knocking it upside down, the troll stood in place where it made a grunt like gasp before Delta lobed off its head with a quick swift strike.

“Their retreating!” yelled a soldier at the line.

Delta looked out to the field and seen the elites were retreating, their catapult fell back they lost their Siege tanks and their masses of hoards are falling like flies against the Hylian Elites. If they were to regroup and rebuild their siege equipment, the line most definitely would be broke. During the start of the battle of the line here in Hylian field each battalion started out with 500 men, Delta only had 100 left.

As Delta raised his sword a cried out with a victory Cry along with what is left of his battalion, turning back around to face the field of slain hoard and fallen soldiers, Delta looked toward his remaining soldiers and the rest of the line. “Count the dead, Rebuild the line wall, this is not the end, they will be back, their just softening us up! Weather its tomorrow or a week, they will be back and we cannot get reinforcements they have all other paths blocked, for now we rest and mend our wounded.”

Delta’s hand shook meaning he was full of adrenaline from the battle as the soldiers rushed passed Delta to start clearing the field one of then hit is shoulder against delta’s right wing, Delta stopped immediately in place with a gasp followed by a yell in pain and him falling to his knees, that juggernaut did a number against his wing. Delta’s soldiers ran up to him and helped him back to his feet and back towards the line to get his wing properly treated.

One of Delta’s soldiers ran over to Nestor, “Sir, Delta has been injured, you are now acting commander, sir!” the high-ranking soldier reported with discipline.

[nestor]

Nestor, having accomplished that mission, climbed out of his shell just in time for a visitor. A high ranking officer who just now gave him the position of commander.

"Oh, I'm no commander, officer." He looked around the battlefield, seeing all the blood and carnage didn't faze him at all, but he got to his feet and laughed.

"Get me a priest and a bucket of water. I need to prepare for the next battle." He began to make motions that looked like he was shooing the officer away. Calmly he walked back to the base camp so he could have a nice long talk with Delta.
