Need to fight II: BRAVE ONE, FOOL ONE OR UNLOVED ONE

Ingus's POV

As I was standing in front of one of the strongest warrior of the kingdom, I began to feel a bit more enthusiastic.

I stood there immobile as she was mere feet away from me. She wasn't carrying any weapons, she dashed towards me quite fast but I managed to use my height to my advantage.

So I just got a bit lower and as she was just mere inches from me I jumped towards her belly which she anticipated and catched me in mid air by my arms.

In this situation I was powerless so I decided to use another technique I learned, I brought my feet up to make a strong kick to her muzzle she dodged but as she dodged, I sensed her grip loosened a bit so I took that opportunity to free my arms way too small for her to grip correctly.

As I got on my feet I rolled between her legs as she was trying to catch me again. I was behind her, I used the back of her knees to climb towards her head as fast possible, she was turning but I was already on her shoulders sitting as I grabbed her ears and pulled them, she yelped a bit but catched me by the collar of my clothes and threw me up.

As I was high up I began to feel a bit scared but I calmed quickly as she jumped towards me in the air and was about to punch me. I knew blocking was futile so I waited carefully for her hand to be enough close then I used my hands as a deflector and rotated on her arm then I punched her face as hard as I could to which she just chuckled while a grin appeared "impressive...but you need..." she locked my head between her arms.

She landed with me still on her chest locked between her arms. I was getting dizzy. She continued " to surrender...it's over little warrior " as she was about to win, I heard Father's voice "okay enough Sara...let him go" he said worried.

I instantly responded "not...over...yet" I knew a way to get out of this but it was...I used my arm not to fight but to touch her breast to which she instantly got embarrassed and loosened her grip, I took that way out to smash her face with my head and rolled on the ground to catch my breath while facing her. She laughed " you are amazing...I wasn't prepared to your trick...I am done" she said a wide smile on her face. "what?!" I replied.

Sara: " you showed me what you were made of, you didn't surrender...you are indeed as brave as his majesty"

Aldea: "or totally fool...why little one? Why didn't you surrender?" (*approaching Ingus*)

Ingus: " because I didn't want to"

Aldea: " brave one or fool one" (*petting his head*)

Ingus: " ..."

King: (*laughter*) " Ingus, you never cease to impress me"

Hordward: ("what does he have that I don't...Father look at me...can't you tell me that too")(*strengthening his fist*)

Vardus was witnessing his brother being a bit angry, he walked towards him and punched him gently on the shoulder.

Vardus: " hey...quite impressive, right? But are you jealous?"(*said with a grin almost teasing *)

Hordward: (*calming down*)" who? Me? Nah...it's not as if Father never appreciated me the way he does with Ingus..."

Vardus: " my brother, you are the dumb one, and I am the sarcastic one, stop being sarcastic it doesn't suit you...and don't say that, you know Father loves you and acknowledges your efforts"

Hordward: " he might do but he isn't really showing it...but you are right...I shouldn't be jealous...Ingus is our brother, and apparently my future training partner "(*said happily with his tail wagging *)

Vardus:" that's better...and I am sure he will beat you in no time fatty"(*touching his brother belly*)

Hordward: " I am not fat!" (*chuckling*)

Vardus: (*laughing*) " let's go congratulate him" (*cheering and walking with his hand behind his head *)

Hordward was about to go when he heard a voice within himself "he will never love you". He began shivering a bit " you don't know...I know he does"

Ominous voice: " are you sure of that? He never really sh..." (*interrupted *)

Hordward: " enough! "

Hordward kept going towards Ingus.

Ominous voice: " ignoring me won't change anything to your situation, you should kill that human before he steals our Father"

Ingus's POV

I just won the right to be trained by Sara, now my brothers were coming to congratulate me but someone was looking at me intensely. It was that elder wolf lady, she was talking to Father but I was too far to get what she was saying and way too preoccupied by my actual victory.

Ingus: " so, you will teach me everything?"

Sara: " you are worthy, but you need some work out first, you are fast but not physically strong enough...wait who are you exactly? I never saw you here before, as I can see on your ear you have the Royal birth mark but how come have I never saw you before "

Hordward: " it's Ingus...well huh"

The king appeared behind Hordward " they are a bit tired now after all those fights, so do you...so what about we get home kids"

Aldea: " it's quite sure that this little one...is very special. And you, my young Sara, you won it after all" (*caressing Sara's back on which a symbol was tattooed now a bit lighter than her fur*)

Sara: " you mean the Moon's blessing...I am lucky, I guess "

King : " Actually, I think the Moon herself decided to help you...when you were about to get killed she gave you your mark...I am so proud of you" (*hugging her tightly*)

Sara: " Thank you, your majesty..."(*hugging back*)

An old deep voice then came from the side " and what about this guy" the old wolf said while sitting on Irka'an back's.

Irka'an: " get off me!"

King: " Ha'ldur get off him please, I am sure he is sorry to have attempted on me and my son's life"

Uriel then got to Irka'an, and asked" what was that all about?"(*tears falling from her eyes*)

King: " I am sure he had his reasons, Irka'an you did what you thought was right to save your daughter...but your actions aren't that erasable...for that I condemn you..."(*raising his hand toward Irka'an *)

Irka'an: " your majesty...Ardy...please..." (*crying*)

King: " to stay in the kingdom forever...no more traveling for you, I see it was way too dangerous "

Irka'an: " thank you, your majesty" (*lowering his head*)

Ha'ldur: " no fun...I had liked to beat the shit out of this old fart"

Aldea: " behave honey...they are kids around...but he isn't wrong, your majesty, leaving a traitor who attempted to your life, is that...wise?"

King: " don't worry, I know he won't be a threat to anyone anymore. I will place a guard around him all the time from now on"

Aldea: " hope you are right..."

King: " I always am, well it was all quite intense, what about we call it a day...I already asked guards to escort all of you here...I still need to understand how a Dark sentinel entered the place"

Aldea: " fine by me, don't stay out too long your majesty, we are still in town for a week, I might pay you a visit "

King: " sure, it will be a pleasure"

Some guards arrived and took everyone to their respective locations. After a while the princes got to the palace.

Vardus: " I don't know about you but I need a shower "

Hordward: " I am hungry"

Vardus: " you always are...(*stomach growled*)(*embarrassed*)...but I guess I am too"

Hordward: (* laughing *) "yeah...what about you, Ingus?" (*looking at Ingus who was daydreaming*)

Vardus: " Ingus?"(*touching him*)

Ingus: " ye-yeah...huh, sorry I was ...thinking about something..."

Vardus: " suuure... well huh, I leave you with Hordward I will shower and join you later" (*left*)

Hordward: " hey...what's up puff?"(*worried*)

Ingus: " it's okay, I-I am just a bit tired "

Hordward: " Ingus, I see you are not alright...if you don't want to tell me now it's okay but if you ever want to, I am there remember I am..." (*interrupted by Ingus hugging him while saying*)

Ingus: " Hord, thank you...I appreciate your concern"

Hordward: (*patting Ingus's back*) " there there, I am your big brother, I will always be there for you, no matter what, I promise..."(*looking blankly at his reflection in a mirror, seeing it nod in disapproval*)
