The Melee (part 1)

Hope you enjoy (Changed name to Michael Stone not Rivers I fixed in last chapter was my mistake sorry about that)

POV: Michael

I wake up full of energy and ready to fight my way to victory in todays melee. Even though I don't remember every person that was in this fight I do remember that Lord Robert Baratheon wins. And I am somewhat certain that I can win against him and all the other knights. If Robert won that means that the kings guard didn't participate so I will not have to fight the knights I know can beat me.

With that I spend a good amount of time putting my armor back on and readying myself for the coming battle on the walk to the arena as it is getting close to noon. I see knights and lords from all over talking and preparing for the fight.

With noon all the fighters are moved in to the area and they split on to 7 different teams one for each kingdom, with the Reach have the largest and Dorne the smallest.

I join the team from the Vale as I made my way over they knights and lords looked at me strangely ether because of my size or that they have never seen me before.

Micheal "Good day my fellow knights and lords my name is Sir Michael Stone."

Lord Yohn Royce "Good day to you as well my name is Lord Yohn Royce. I haven't see you at any tournaments before but from the name I can guess you are from the Vale."

Michael "Yes I am would you mind if join the Vales side in this fight, I am very good at fighting."

Lord Yohn "if your size is anything to go off of then I believe you, here take this blue cloth and wrap it around your arm that way we know who's side you are on."

Now that I look around it seems all teams have this system has the all have colored cloths wrapped around their arms.

Michael "thank you my lord."

With that I wrapped it around my arm and get ready for the chaos that is about to begin. Sadly or maybe thankfully we are given blunt weapons of our choice so my biggest advantage which is the steel of which my poleaxe is made of doesn't matter in this fight.

Just as I finish wrapping my arm horns start blowing and the fighters take off running to the team closest to them. I how ever run at a far slower rate to watch which fight I wish to join.

Then I spot what I was looking for 3 Northern lords who are Lord Hornwood and two members of house Manderly fighting against one Lord Eon Hunter of the Vale

So I charging yelling "Non effilèrent potes!"(Latin for 'you can not escape'). With the speed of my run up I smash my hammer head in to one of the Manderlys shields breaking both it and the arm of the man holding it then to finish him off I front kick him in the chest breaking his ribs, next I hit lord Hornwood on the side just below the armpit with a upward side swing sending him straight to the ground.

This has given the last Manderly time to swing his sword down so I bring up the shaft of my poleaxe and block the downward swinging blade. I then shove up on the blade throwing his arm away with it. With his guard gone I bash him in the face with the shaft of my weapon. As he hits the ground he raises his hand in surrender and walks to the exit.

Lord Eon Hunter has long since left to fight elsewhere and it appears he lost that fight as I see him leave the area.

Before I go to my next fight I'm Tackled by a man almost the same size as me. And I realize it's Lord Jon Umber. Before I can react he rips my helmet off and starts punching me in the face. I counter by grabbing both of his hands, and headbutting him, letting me throw them off and stand up for my weapon.

Now that we are both standing with weapons in hand we clash his great sword against my poleaxe. It's in this clash that I remember the one person I forgot but that can match my strength. The "Greatjon" of house Umber.

With this thought in mind with our weapons still locked in a contest of strength I go for a kick to the leg to get him off balance, but he sees that coming and parry's with a knee to the chest. Which pushes me back but space is what I need to make my poleaxe stand out.

I go for a lower stab which you dodges but that leaves his legs open to a leg hook with my axe blade which brings the Lord down on his back, so with him down I hop on top of him and start beating him with hit after hit. Even when Lord Umber starts hitting me in the ribs which I can feel even through the chest plate, I keep hit him till finally he stops fighting and passes out.

I stand up find my helmet and get ready for the whatever or whoever I have to fight next. But I will remember the first man to hurt me since I got to this world.

That's the end of this chapter
