Chapter 1

It was supposed to be an epic battle.The battle where the hero wins and the villain loses, but this battle's outcome was different. The villain won. The battle began in the afternoon. Sabashi, the king's knight of the Peace Kingdom, was ordered to kill the villain who attacked the kingdom. Sabashi went to the villain's hideout. The hideout was a cave that was very dark from the outside. The cave was made out of black quartzs. The quartz were sharp enough to slice paper like butter. Sabashi was standing outside the cave not in fear, but out of precaution. Sabashi wore armor that was made out of metal. He didn't wear his helmet because he thinks it blinds him. He also wore a sword holder that was on his right side. He pulled out his sword and hit a rock that was on the ground. Then he swung at the rock to generate fire on his sword. His sword can do this because his sword is made out of one fourth of charcoal. The other 75 percent of it is made out of steel. After he generated fire on his sword, he went inside the cave to see a man sitting and laughing. The man wore a robe.

"So, you found me, Sabashi, The man laughed, "You can't win."

"I will, for the kingdom!" Sabashi screamed as he swung his sword at the man.

The man then dodged the strike by bending back, but then Sabashi stomped on the man's stomach with his metal boot. The man was pinned down by Sabahi's boot. He couldn't move his back. Sabashi then tried to strike his sword at the man's chest. Suddenly, the man managed to use both of his hands from penetrating his chest. The man grabbed the tip of Sabashi's sword. By doing this his hands started bleeding.

"Is this all you got?" The man laughed again as he was still holding the tip of the sword with his hands. 

The man used his legs to kick Sabashi's leg. Then Sabashi fell to the ground.  While Sabashi was on the ground the man found a huge rock on the ground. The man grabbed the rock and threw it at his left arm. When the rock hit Sabashi's left arm, it shattered the armor on his left arm. Then the man picked up the rock and slammed it on Sabashi's unprotected arm over and over again. Sabashi was in agony. At this point Sabashi's left arm was broken. He obviously couldn't couldn't move his left arm because the pain was too great. Suddenly, Sabashi somehow got the energy to  get up and punch the man with his left hand in the face. The man went on his knees. Sabashi grabbed his sword, but then the man got up really fast and punched Sabashi so hard that Sabashi flew out of the cave along with his sword. Sabashi was in the grass powerless. The man walked out of the cave with a grin on his face.

"You actually made me try for once," He smirked, "It's over."

"No!" Sabashi said as he grabbed his sword with his right hand and slowly got up from the ground.

    Sabashi made a circle around him with his sword.

    "Light give me strength." 

    The man felt a strong presence from Sabashi.Sabashi swung his sword as far as he could at the man.It wasn't very far. Suddenly, the man's left arm was cut off.

"You can kill me, but you won't win in one piece," Sabashi laughed, "That attack was a demonstration of my power."

The man then used his right hand to control the grass and wrap the grass that was behind Sabashi on Sabashi's left leg. Sabashi tried to cut the grass,but the grass was strong as steel.

"Thorns!" Yelled the man

Suddenly, multiple thorns stabbed into Sabashi's left leg. Sabashi screamed in pain.

"It's funny how you are the protector of the Peace Kingdom, and you're so weak."

"No." Sabashi grind, "There are invisible blades all around you. One move and you're dead."

Suddenly, the man snapped his fingers and the invisible swords around him shattered. Sabashi's hope was shattered.

"I noticed your powers are built on support and not one on one combat." The man said with some concern. 

Then Sabashi out of nowhere disappeared. 

"We were just having fun. I will surely see you again." Said the man

Sabashi reappeared in a giant room. This building was the throne room. The Peace Castle's throne room. The room was made out of stone. At the end of the room was the king and queen's throne. 5 feet away from the throne was a red carpet. The carpet was shaped like a square and it wasn't that big. In the middle of the carpet was Sabashi. Sabashi's eyes were closed and was laying down on the carpet. When he opened his eyes, he saw that his wounds were gone. He also saw the king and queen of the Peace kingdom sitting in their thrones. 

"My King and Queen" Sabashi said in nervousness as he went on his knees and bowed down to them. 

Out of curiosity, Sabashi looked around to the room to see knights on the left and right side of the room. There were a total of 20 knights in the room besides Sabashi. Sabashi then looked back at the queen and king with a mad face. Suddenly, a woman appeared in front of Sabashi. This woman was Hira. She wore a white glitter dress. She's known as the Kingdom's healer. Sabashi is her love interest.

"I appreciate that you care for my life, but I don't want you to save me!" Sabashi said argerliy. 

Hira, with a sad expression on her face. slowly moved to the left to let Sabashi look at the king and queen.

"With the help of the knights and Hira you could have defeated that villian." The queen said with a worried face.

"Help is for the weak," Sabashi screamed. "To keep my title of the most powerful knight, I need to be independent."

The king pointed his index finger at Sabashi and said, "Look at where this independence led you too. I'm the king of this kingdom, meaning I'm the leader of this kingdom. I work with my knights to come up with plans. This is a team. My role as a leader is to make strategies for my knights. The role of the knights is to fulfill these strategies."

  Once the king stopped talking, everyone was quiet for a little bit.

"Danny and I have been discussing a plan for a while." Said the queen.

Sabashi had a worried look on his face. 

"What's the plan?" Sabashi Asked fearfully.

"You will travel to be a leader. Overtime, we hope that you understand what being a leader is." Said the queen

"How will I do that?" Sabashi said as he cried and stood up

"You need to make a team during your travels." Said the king

"How many?" Asked Sabashi cried again

"You're the leader. It's up to you." The king said as he smiled.

Suddenly, Hira jumped in front of Sabashi and held his hand.

"I'm going to be your first teammate!" Hira yelled in excitement.

Sabashi looked annoyed, so Hira let go of Sabashi's hand.

"I'd rather die, but I want this to end fast, so I'll say yes."

Hira ignored Sabashi's words, then she hugged Sabashi. After ten seconds, she stopped hugging him. 

"Wait, how will you guys protect the kingdom once Hira and I leave."

The king said, "I will say this with very honest words. Sabashi, you are essentially useless right now. That villain could just come back to kill us all, and you wouldn't be able to help us. You are dirt compared to that villian. Hira, not to be mean, but you're easily replaceable. I've known you for a very long time, but I just need a break from you. It's not you that I'm mad at . I'm mad at myself for being annoyed by your personality. Sorry, I don't mean to be rude."

"It's fine my king." Said Hira and Sabashi as they both faked a smile.

It was getting dark, so their conversion between the four of them ended. Hira disappeared somewhere, the king and queen went to their room and slept , and Sabashi went to his room. Keep in mind that Sabashi is the only knight that has their own room. Sabashi's room was plain. It had a wooden floor and the walls were made out of stone. There was a bed and an amor beside it. The room also had a dresser. The dresser held very little clothing. Sabashi took off his armor and put it on the armor stand, and laid on the bed. He couldn't sleep because of the quest that was given to him. After awhile, he went to sleep.

    In the morning, Sabashi woke up and put his armor on. He opened his dresser and found a bag in it. Then he put all the clothes in the bag. He put on the bag. He was now ready for the journey of a lifetime.Sabashi walked out of the room and closed the door behind him. He walked out of the entrance of the castle. Suddenly, Hira appeared in front of Sabashi. 

"How do you always know where I am?" Asked Sabashi.

"I put a tracker spell on you. "

"I would fight you, but you are now my "teammate", sadly"

Hira said nothing.

Then they continued to walk through the kingdom. They looked around the villages that they will miss. Hira said bye to a lot of people, Sabashi said nothing. As they got to the front entrance of the kingdom, they saw the queen and king. They said their goodbyes. Then Sabashi and Hira continued to walk further from the kingdom.

"Sabashi, remember I would die for you."

"Then I would lose a teammate, and my quest will fail."

"You will love me eventually" Hira said as they began their journey.
