The Final Ashfield Chapter 22: Silence And Understanding [4]
“!!!” Through the crowd, he could see him. Hidemi!! Hidemi stood with Yeni and Dorthy, hidden behind the former’s back and peering through the space in the crowd. Thank goodness. He’s a smart boy. He must’ve realized there was trouble and gone to them. Craning his neck in his son’s direction to get closer- even by an inch - was all he wanted. But the guards wouldn’t allow him. “SETTLE DOWN!!” The butt of a gun was jammed into his ribs, causing him to collapse to the floor. “Eugh-”“You better watch yourself, you murderer. Breaking tradition just wasn’t enough for you, huh?!”A guard whispered to him. In the streets, people gathered, wondering what was going on. But before the crowd could become too rambunctious, Banderd stepped out of the house, followed by guards holding a stretcher. And on it? Donnovan Murong.“AIIIEEEE!!!!”“N-NO WAY!”“WHAT’S GOING ON?!”The last yell came from Dwygrand himself. The crowd parted ways, letting him reveal himself. “Ivan? I should’ve known you w
The Final Ashfield Chapter 23: Day Of The Dwanivit [7]
[Present Time- Dwanivit Grounds]Hisagi had been remembering the events. Soon after Ivan was taken away, Hidemi was snatched up by the guards and thrown out of the city the following night. Yeni had advocated for him, claiming it wasn't right to send him out during the night in such a dangerous blizzard. She had gained some mistrustful and hate-filled looks that day. Forget it. Hisagi thought, pounding at a piece of iron with his hammer. It's not my business. Focus on winning and crush them all!!BA~Z! BA~Z! THOW!!!He turned to the source of the sound. "Hehehe!!" Esi's voice laughed. He, too, had started. But his set-up was a bit different than Hisagi's. A thick block of Sparkling Cryomondine sat on the desk-space along with parchment paper and…"A leaf?" The crowd whispered, wondering what a leaf would have to do with creating a weapon. "Watch closely, Hisagi! I…" Esi leaned forward over his desk, smirking. SHHHH~IIIZZZZLEEEThe furnace inside of his work station sizzled, burni
The Final Ashfield Chapter 24: Dwanivit [8]
Standing there, unbothered by the crowd's cheering, he had been working through Huin's explanation of Esi's faults. His knuckles pressed into a now hollowed piece of metal. Aleximus hadn't noticed, but Hidemi had amassed two separate metals on his workstation as well as a cauldron, bubbling with an orange hue. He was melting the minerals he had collected earlier. Sparkling Cryomondine and… I don't recognize the other… Hisagi winced, hoping to get a better look at the metals.Aleximus looked closer, opening his eyes once he realized where he remembered the mineral from. He had given it to Hidemi before the Dwanivit had started in order to forge his new sword. Did he have a few pieces left? What's he gonna do with that? "OUUU–" Hidemi inhaled, raising his hand. "AHHHH!!!" CR~AC~K!He struck the black leftover mineral with extreme force. "Yeouch!" Esi jumped back, grabbing his own hand as if he had been the one to punch it. "Is he insane?! He'll fracture his hand!"No. It's more t
The Final Ashfield Chapter 0: Prologue
The sun, previously beating down on the battlefield with its heat, was now blotted out by many dark clouds. Even its majestic energy was overshadowed by a sea of pungent mist. Filling the air was the smell of rancid blood and iron, sickening enough to make your stomach churn. It was the smell of rancid blood and iron. But it was that smell that helped him focus in the fog.There he stood. The figure of a man could be seen, alone, looking onwards. His name was Jacender Ashfield. Proud son of the Ashfield line and guardian of the gate. The mist slowly dissipated, revealing dozens of strewn bodies laid all around him. It was apparent that Jacender remained the last man standing."Khak!! Khak!!" he coughed fiercely into his hand. He had become exhausted from the raging battle against the demon hordes. So much so that he fell to his knees, blood on his glove."D-Damn it!!" He grunted, propping himself up with the hilt of his sword. Just as he started to rise, a domineering voice
The Final Ashfield Chapter 1: The Axis
10 Years earlier:[The Axis] (Letters in brackets such as this indicate the setting/place)The axis was a decently large place. It had a forest of Ash trees(who´s wood never burned), a large supply of food in the form of magical animals, and its residents. A small family of 4. 1 adult, 3 children. The axis wasn't an ordinary place either. It stood in a dimensional crack, separated from the rest of the world. The children inside had never met another human being before, other than their uncle. But these children were special. They didn't know it quite yet, but destiny had other plans in store for them. CLANK CLANKThe sounds of swords striking each other echoed through the meadow. The source of the sound? Twin brothers Jacender and Aleximus. The 2 boys, no older than 9, stood facing each other in a meadow of grass.Sweat rolling off of Jacender's temple, he slowly inched forward. Aleximus did the same."HYAH!" Jacender lunged fiercely, bringing his wooden sword down. Aleximus
The Final Ashfield Chapter 2: The Codex
Aleximus ran through the meadow quickly as the moon shined down on him."Huh?!?!" He whipped his head, turning to look behind him. "Who's there?!" He spoke, on guard, ready for any and everything. There wasn't a reply.Tch. Of course there isn't anyone there. Us four are the only ones who live in the axis. He exhaled and regained his composure.He was still on guard, however. The strange happenings with his sister were just his primary concern. But…the presence that he sensed…reminded him of the magic that Anna used. …It’s energy.He focused his mind back on his sister and continued to run. --(Note "-" by itself means change in perspectives)“Oh…? Can he sense me? Interesting…” The moon shined down, outlining a dark figure’s shadow.He stood behind a tree watching Aleximus with a sinister grin.“Looks like my journey here won't be too boring…”----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Final Ashfield Chapter 3: The Codex[Part 2]
VMMM….VMMM….VMMMA pulse echoed through the waterfall’s inner cave. Jacender's body was laid out on the floor; his head bleeding profusely. VMMM….VMMM!!!!It echoed again.Jace’s eyes opened slowly. “A..lex…i…mus…”“I’ve…gotta…g-get up…Kheah!!” he groaned, lifting up his head.He looked down at the rest of his body.“D-Damn…isn’t this the worst…luck…” His head throbbed. In his midsection a long sharp rock stuck out.If he moved, he would bleed out and die.“Th-there’s gotta be…something…anything…” he started to look around. His senses were becoming duller. VRMMM….VRMMM!!!!!!!“What…is that…sound…?”It’s not around me, and the vibrations aren't coming from the below… he concluded.So…it must be coming….FROM ABOVE!! He jerked his head up and he finally saw it.Floating no more than 2-3 inches above his head. Jace didn’t know what it was. For in that moment all that crossed his mind was instinct. What looked like a book evoked strong memories within his blood that he had no recoll
The Final Ashfield Chapter 4: The Codex[Part 3]
It feels so warm…Jace thought, floating in the deep darkness.What… was I doing again? Oh yeah…----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I’ve got to get away from this man, and get Anna and Jace out of here at any cost… Aleximus thought, frightened and still in immense pain from his broken arm.And what was that he said…?“Codex”? Is it what caused that explosion and made Jace's hair white?Whatever it is, right now I just need to find a way for us to get out of thisAs Aleximus finished his thought, Hatagi pushed him to the ground and ran to Anna. Picking her up to use as a hostage.“Hey, you bastard!! Don’t you dare touch my sister!! or I’ll make you regret it!!!” he yelled.Hatagi looked over at him, slightly annoyed.“Ki
