Subject     Chapter 1: Revenge is a
B***h

So there I was just on the road, walking casually,
when I was thrown off
the road by a carriage being pulled by two
black horses. It didn't even stop
to see if I was okay. I was
pissed at the people in the carriage, it didn't
matter who was in
there, I would rob them of any wealth they had and then
kill
them. I followed them, I knew exactly where they were going,
Palanthas.
I tracked them for 3 days, there were times when I had
lost them, but I
didn't give up! I kept searching for the
carriage tracks. When I found them
I followed, while thinking
gruesome thoughts. 

They lived in the better part of Palanthas,
I found the carriage outside a
mansion, on mansion st.. Obviously
I would get more out of this than I had
originally thought. I
waited till night for it would be the best time for me
to be
stealthy. Like a shadow, I traversed the side of the house,
and
climbed through a window into an empty room. I put my ear to
the mahogany
door and listened for any sounds. Eiron heard
nothing, so she grabbed her
knife from her side, and opened the
door.

She looked into the hallway, nobody. It was the perfect
situation. She had
an idea of how a mansion looked on the inside.
This hadn't been her first
time stealing from the rich. She
walked to the second door on the right and
put her ear to the
door. Snoring could be heard inside the room. She
carefully and
silently opened the door. It creaked as she did. She walked
to
the perpetrators and raised her blade, and brought it down on
the man. He
was killed instantly, the woman awoke and screamed,
Eiron slashed the
woman's throat and the screaming stopped. The
woman had alerted the
neighbors and people in the house of her
presence. Eiron would have to skip
on stealing really valuable
objects, but that didn't stop her from grabbing
things on the way
out. 

She climbed out the window and descended to the ground and
hid in the
shadows just as the Solamnic Guards came running over
to see what the fuss
was about. Eiron waited till the night went
quiet, then she made her escape
from the city.

one

"Your mission is to destroy the goblins that have
been killing all of our
new members," said a voice Eiron
recognized as her teacher.

"Yes sir. It shall be done," Eiron
said as she bowed. "I shall begin right
away." Eiron had expected
for her teacher to answer, but there was no
respond. The young
assassin turned around and grabbed her things from her
room. She
left nothing behind, for she had a feeling that she wouldn't
be
returning for a long while. So she knew the goblins had always
ambushed
people in the Neraka Forest, so that was the first place
she rushed
towards.


Stopping only for a quick bite to eat, and
sleep. The journey lasted 2 days.
Eiron was ready to kill the
goblins, for she had a vengeance. The goblins
had killed her
husband while he was on a run between Neraka and Jalek. He
and
his draconian were slaughtered. Eiron would not share their fate,
she
wouldn't; she couldn't! If she failed her life would be for
nothing. It
would be worthless. The assassin took all the
precautions she needed. She
used mud and vegetation to cover her
skin for camouflage. She only wore dark
clothing that night.
Eiron had a quick bite to eat and then went padding off
into the
forest.

Eiron listened very carefully for any sounds of
movement. She heard none.
This was not a good sign for her, she
knew that the forest shouldn't be as
quiet as it was, so she
climbed the nearest tree and jumped like a monkey
from tree to
tree. She was barely noticeable to anyone below. You would
have
to look up to see her. Eiron then started to hear voices.
She knew the
voices well; they were that of the goblins. She got
closer to the
encampment, and as she did, the voices got quieter.
They could hear her!

Then a scream came from behind her as a
goblin brought its sword down. Eiron
was caught by surprise when
the blade had missed her. The goblin must have
just woken up to
her walking through the forest causing it to be drowsy.
Eiron
grabbed her sword from its sheath and jabbed at the goblin. It
fell
limp over her blade. She yanked her blade from the carcass
and caught the
next goblin that had heard the commotion, and
beheaded the beast. Now there
had been so much commotion that all
the goblins in the encampment had heard
her. They all had drawn
their swords and came running at Eiron. A yell of
triumph had
started behind her. This wasn't a goblin yell, it was too deep.
A
draconian with Dragonarmy armor came running alongside Eiron.


Thought you might need some help," the draconian said. 

"Thank
you this will not be forgotten." The goblins came in waves.
Swords
collided and blood was shed; not human or draconian blood,
but thick sticky
goblin blood had watered the ground. There were
1...2...3...4 waves of
goblins, each had 10 goblins. Forty goblin
carcasses were lying on the
ground. The draconian and Eiron had
to take a rest before either of them
could speak. When they had
caught their breath, they began to talk.

"So you are an
excellent fighter, draconian," complimented
Eiron.

Part two

"But not as good as you I must say! You must
have killed twice as many
Goblins as I did. You were everywhere.
Where did you learn to fight like
that?" asked the
draconian.

"My husband, Sfeir, had taught me most of what I
know. He was a very devoted
husband and excellent warrior of the
Dragon-"

"WHAT!!! Your husband was Sfeir? I was the only
survivor of his party when
he had died. I take shame in living
that day. That's why everyone considers
me dead, for I had been a
coward and ran away from that battle. I was
brutally punished for
this. I will never live it down. I am now nothing but
a soldier
of the Queen."

"I do not hate you for leaving Sfeir. I am also
disappointed in a soldier of
the Dragonarmy, but I do not hate
you."

"Thank you, miss. For such kindness, and an amazing skill
with a blade, I
will consider you to my superiors, to be one of
the members of the red
Dragonarmy. It is the least I can do.
Plus, it is time for you to take your
husband's place."

"Thank
you so much." Eiron and her new found friend headed for Neraka,
for
Eiron to be enrolled into the Dragonarmy.

Subject     Big Mistake

It was a Friday night, and
all was quiet. Nothing could be heard in the
DragonArmy Clan
hall. Eiron was the only one in there, or so she thought.
She was
on her way to go torture the DA's new Solamnic guard. She took
pride
in torturing the solamnics. When she got into the room, she
saw something
levitating off the ground. It looked like an orb of
some sort. She quickly
grabbed it and put it in her backpack.
Having no ideas whose it was. She
totally forgot about the
torture session. She ran off to her quarters to
examine the orb
more closely. When she got to her room, she was surprised to
see
two bozak draconian there searching her quarters.

"What the hell
are you doing!?" yelled Eiron as she pushed the draconians
away
from her stuff.

"We were ordered to search your quarters for a
certain item that may have
been stolen." Eiron pulled out the
globe-like object and showed it to the
draconians.

"Is this what
you're looking for?"

"Yes it is, and you are under arrest for
stealing it," the nearest draconian
pulled out some handcuffs and
handcuffed Eiron.

"But I've done nothing wrong! I just found it
by that Solamnic guard." The
draconian didn't listen to her. They
dragged her to the altar of Takhisis.
There she was! Eiron had
never seen such a beautiful sight, even though
Takhisis faced
away from her. She was truly blinded by awesomeness. Eiron
fell
to her knees and begged for forgiveness, but she didn't know what
for.


"Stop it!" Takhisis ordered as she spun around and faced
Eiron. A feeling of
terror ran through her body. "You know what
you have done, and you also know
that this is a huge offense
against the DragonArmy. What if Lahrag had
needed the globe that
you had stolen? He could have died in battle, and for
this you
must be severely punished. I promise you that when I am
through
with you, you will wish that you had never been born."
Eiron could almost
see a smile appear on Takhisis' face. "Now
let's begin." Takhisis waved her
arms and Eiron's shackles came
off. 

Eiron stood up and wondered what was going to happen to
him. Then out of
nowhere Lahrag appeared in the room. "Lahrag, I
you were curious who had
taken your globe, well here he is. Now
do with him what you will. Punish
him, or I will punish you."
Lahrag nodded.

The first punch hurt the worst. It went straight
to the nose. It immediately
bled profusely. Then another came,
then another, and another. Eiron lost
count of how many times she
had been hit; all she knew was what it felt like
to be tortured
like the Solamnic guard. After what seemed like an hour
Takhisis
told Lahrag to stop.

"Now, Eiron, have you learned your lesson?"
asked Takhisis. Eiron nodded.
"You sure cause I was hoping to get
at least one hit on you?" Eiron nodded
two more time to prove he
was done. "Well okay you may go." She quickly
stood up and
started to leave, but not before Takhisis was able to get her
one
hit in. Takhisis did a roundhouse kick to Eiron's back. The kick
would
have crippled Chuck Norris. Eiron flew forward and ran into
a wall. Eiron
got up again and ran as fast as she could to her
quarters. Laughing could be
heard from behind her.

Rebirth!

It was Eiron's mission to kill the leader of the
elf rebels. He was
supposed to kill the elven captain; obviously
this would be his last day of
living. The clash of the Dragonarmy
raid party and the elven warriors
sounded like thunder, the
rumble of the ground could be felt for at least a
mile. Eiron
then had a flashback when she had first joined the
Dragonarmy,
and how powerful she thought herself to be, but she
was ignorant then. Then
she remembered the story the draconian
had said of her husband. It was that
moment that she had promised
to avenge her husband. 

Back in the real world, Eiron had to
move from shadow to shadow to make sure
she was not seen
assassinating the captain. She didn't want a bad record.
She saw
the chapel that was said to be his home, she bolted to it
and
climbed up the wall that kept the grounds protected from
assassins,
obviously it hadn't stopped Eiron. 

Then as Eiron
crossed the threshold into the main building a boom could
be
heard in the distance, meaning the first wave broke through
the wall. Out of
the corner of her eye, Eiron saw someone that
looked familiar running to a
room. She followed him into the
room. The man didn't notice her come into
the room. It was the
captain! Eiron pulled out her dagger ran up to the
captain and
then put the blade to his neck and then noticed who he was.
It
was her father, Haroondle!


"That's not how it happened! He
died because he was saving me from the
Dragonarmy's forces,"
explained Haroondle.

"So they lied to me?!"

"I'm so sorry,
Eiron. I really am. The path you have taken is not written
in
stone you know? It can be rewritten." Eiron stared at
Haroondle for a long
while pondering the thought. 

"Once again
my husband will not have died in vain! I will smite those
that
have killed him, but also I shall annihilate the ones that
had lied to me.
From this moment on, I will join forces with you
in order to prove my
worth."

"He would be very proud, just as I
am at this moment. You have a new
beginning, use it well!"

"That
I shall..."

After Haroondle and Eiron had fled the chapel, they ran
and ran through
miles of forest till they finally came to an
opening. Across which was an
elfish village. They walked casually
towards the village, but Eiron was
greeted by spear tips.
Haroondle wave the spears away, but they went back to
their
original position. Then the leader of the village came up to
Eiron and
backhanded her across the face. "You are an assassin of
the Dragonarmy! I
have seen you before, when you killed my
brother. Now you must pay!" yelled
Carun, leader of the elfin
village.

"WAIT!!!!" yelled Haroondle waving his arms around.
"She has come here as
both a friend and my son. Any who wants to
kill her must kill me first."
Haroondle was serious, he would not
budge.

"Even though she is your daughter, she is part of the
Dragonarmy? You must
have a good reason for this?"

"I have seen
the good in her eyes. She has made the proper vows! You will
not
hurt her. You know our laws! Do you dare disobey them? In doing
so, you
will be giving up your leadership," Haroondle argued.
Carun turned around
obviously pissed off.

"Fine, but she must do
one thing," a wicked smile appeared on Carun. Eiron
was then led
to a big jail cell. Inside there was a draconian,
more
importantly, the draconian that had recruited her to the
Dragonarmy. "Kill
him and you can join our cause," said
Carun.

Eiron had no problem with killing him. He was the one who
had lied to her
face. The draconian stared at Eiron, fear was in
his eyes. Eiron didn't know
whether the draconian deserved what
he was going to get. Sacrifices would
have to be made in order to
join the side of good. He was already too far
into the process to
turn back. 

Eiron pulled out her dagger and in one quick motion,
the draconian's blood
was spilled on the ground. The cell door
opened and in came the guards to
get rid of the body. Eiron stood
there staring at the pool of blood that
lined the ground. She was
starting to wonder if this was all going to be
worth it. Eiron
walked out of the cell and stared at Haroondle. Eiron knew
that
Haroondle could see the disappointment in her eyes. Eiron wanted
to
leave the relentless murder of her blade behind her, but she
knew that that
could not happen. 

"Is this necessary? I left
murder behind me when I left the Dragonarmy."

Is it necessary?!
Yes of course it is. We have to make sure you are not
a
spy."

"Okay, I have proven my worth. If it helps me get
through all this process,
that draconian was an old friend of
mine," said Eiron. Carun pondered this
in disbelief.

"Haroondle,
will you take responsibility for Eiron?"

"Yes, I trust her so
much that I will put my life on the line."

"Eiron will you
please relinquish your weapons to your father?" Eiron did as
she
was told. "Okay it is settled. Eiron you have gained our trust do
not
destroy it for it could mean your father's life." Eiron
nodded. Carun left
the room leaving Haroondle and Eiron
behind.

"Thank you," said Eiron. "I will do anything you tell
me."

"Much is going to become of you. You be trusted by many of
the elves. At
first they may not be welcoming, but they'll warm
up to you." They then left
the room and went to Haroondle's
quarters to make Eiron a room.
