AN AMBUSH

THIRD-PERSON POV:

It was unbelievable! The royal blood decorated the floor. Captain Tunga and his squad got their deadly hands on the royal family.

CAPTAIN TUNGA POV:

After a well-plotted scheme,I finally got the royal family in my vicious palms.

I & my squad rummaged the bushes, in search of daily provisions, all because of the idiot sitting his damn ass on the throne; a throne my General supposed to occupy.

'All that will soon be history now' I thought.

"Your Magesty, what a pleasant surprise!" I said & took a mock bow, obviously enjoying myself. The bastard looked stunned as he saw me.

"Tunga? But you..., you...,"he stuttered.

"Died?" I asked.

"Not at all, Your Magesty. You see, I survived as you can see" I followed up.

"What do we have here?" I said as I looked at the rest of the royal family.

"A bird happened to tell me about your agendum today" I said as I laughed maniacally, and turned towards the royal family again.

"Don't hurt them, please." Imonad begged.

"Oh no, your Magesty. I had no intentions..." I said. Imonad heaved a sigh of relief.

"...of letting them go" I said as I slashed open the First Lady's throat.

"Nooooo", screamed Imonad amidst hushed whimpering from the children.

"Hush, now" growled one of my men.

"No, Zadan, let them express it now. This is, afterall, their last cry" I said as I laughed maniacally again at my evil ingenuity.

I then looked at the princess

"Hush, now little one" I said like one rocking a child to sleep.

In an instant, I swung my sword in an expert stroke, as her head fell down like a deflated ball.

The heightened cries seemed to fade away as I basked in the glory of my devilish agendum.

"You, don't cry too much. You'll join her soon" I said to the prince.

"You were supposed to be her knight" he yelled.

"Of course, my Lord. I just merely relieved her of her greatest mistake" I replied with a devilish grin.

IMONAD POV:

I felt strength leave me as I helplessly watched my family die.

"End it now, Tunga" I said in resignation.

"Of course, your Magesty." Tunga smiled.

I watched helplessly, held down by 3 of Tunga's dogs as he held my son's hair.

"Feisty as usual, my boy" Tunga said. Avrinth, the prince spat into his face. I laughed sadly at his last ditch effort to save our pride.

"Finish what you started, dog" Avrinth said amidst a smile.

"Oh, I will" Tunga said, anger starting to creep in.

He wiped his face with his cotton vest. He slashed open the thigh of Avrinth. Avrinth screamed loudly and fell down with a loud thud as Tunga threw him down.

"My apologies, your Magesty, but I'm gonna enjoy this one" Tunga said as his devilish grin returned to his face.

I watched and yelped helplessly as Tunga raised his sword sky-high and ended it all in one fell swoop.
