_____________________________________________________________________________________

I felt at peace for a moment but then I felt cold and wet. As the feeling in my arms and legs came back to me the first thing I did was raise myself up. Sat there one leg up to my chin the other laid out flat .I opened my eyes slowly as I did i found I was in a tent a fairly large tent with a huge table in the middle. and a fire by the side of the opening letting a faint light fill the tent with its flickers.

“that's where I get out I guess”

I thought but not yet it felt like I had just took a full blow to the chest by an ogre...again.

“ahha!“

I turned to find that the little lady was actually in the tent all this time sitting on the table from the other side from me

”oh little....lay..dy”

I spoke as i yawned shortly in between

“you got any of that tree sap on you? “

she reached round the table to my side of it tracing her finger along some paper on the table she then turned and reached out lounging at me within moments I found her arms around my neck

“don't you ever try that again”

she yelled in my ear

“well”

I said

“ im awake now thanks to you I said chuckle trying to save my ear

“err what you mean thanks to me?”

she said looking up at me she then rushed her arms away from me and she stood up fiercely as fast as possible

“ that wasn't too erm...”

she trailed of the situation just got tense I had to lighten the mood before it gets unbearable

“ladylike?”

I said with a stupid grin knowing her reaction.

but before her yelling an old man and a small boy following him came into the tent the man carrying a tray of old cloth and a bottle of something i could tell was liquor regardless what it was I could seriously do with a drink right know. The boy seemed to carry another bottle of the same stuff with him though slightly larger he struggled to carry it with both hands but somehow he managed to carry it in advance of the old man who was busy resting his rack of kit on the table

“here sir “

the boy said thrusting the bottle in my face. I reached out with my right hand and took it from him it weight so much it brought my hand right to the bottom of the floor with the bottle

“you alight sir “

the boy said

“its heavier than it looks "

he finished. I felt like I was being lectured I felt like having a little fun with the kid while he was here. So I pulled out my short sword from its scabbard and slowly brought it up to him and said

“ this is sharp as well yer ….what!”

i looked to see that almost half of the blade was missing broken in half. Or maybe just a little more than half.

”that's enough boy”

the old man said holding a bottle in one hand and some old torn cloth pieces and a pair of scissors in his other hand

”you gave him his drink let me handle him now”.

The old man said as the boy left the tent I looked at the tent opening its tent door was flapping furiously back and forth.

”now then I need to look at the damage on you're arm good sir “

the old man said kneeling in front of me I now saw he was the man who's cattle one of my men was launched into by that thing on 8 legs.

”what you mean damage?....on my arm?”

soon after I felt the full feeling in my limbs I saw that I hardly moved my left arm since I woke up. I turned to see my arm covered in blood close to the wrist but surprisingly clean all up the forearm sleeve.

“its not as bad as it looks good sir ….just a few stitches was all I needed .but I need to change the bandages"

he took my arm and rolled the sleeve of my leaver jerkin back .I saw other than cloth .but also dried scabbed pieces of my jerkin fall of as he rolled it back .as he did he revealed the mangled wrist of my arm covered in bandages.

“Id start looking the other way good sir its really bad “

I worked up the strength to lift my bottle in my other hand and took a few long gulps .resting it back down I stared back at him and said

“ just get it over with”

watching him remove all the cloth from my wrist .after 5 minuets he was done removing the bandages .i thought he was going to apply the new ones just as the little lady came to watch

“hmm looks like I should disinfect it one last time just to make sure"

“oh deer that could hurt yes we should certainly do that “

the little lady said.

“you cruel little thing even.....ahggghh!!!!”

the old man was dabbing a cloth soaked in that bottles good stuff all over me

“ ha I probably got more of that in my blood than in the bottle old man “

he he finished dabbing me in liquor just as he began bandaging me up again the lady spoke

“ we need to talk its about....”.

“the child?”

I sighed at her. knowing full well what she's after.

“i know you think its stupid I know that with you're arm you now.....”

she paused just for a second to look at my wrist then continued to speak after realizing I was moving the fingers in my arm

“...probably more than ever have no obligation to do this and I know that you don't stand any chance of finding him ”

she ended looking up to my eyes with her hands clasped together under her chin

“all done good sir “

the man said collecting his things together on his rack and began making his leave

“keep the bottle good sir I think you need it more than me”

he said faintly .he swiftly ended the tent letting a rush of cold air in the tent it soon brought the feeling of being awake firmly back to me. As I struggled to climb up.

“look”

I said calmly showing my left wrist covered in bandages and tattered leather alike.

“im done my fighting days are done!”

I raised my other hand and lifted my finger into the air in front of the lady's face.

”one mistake just one and now look"

still amazed to find my hand is holding the big bottle of liqueur with my finger pointing in the air doing nothing .bringing the bottle to my face I took a big gulp of it down. After a quick swig I show my left hand to her and continue my tirade

“look I can barely move my hand let alone hold a buckler

”.but I guess that's not good enough for the lady's purse is it?. I know maybe a foot or maybe one of my good men's spine!”

I push her aside as I sit on the chair lounging on the table my bad arm hiding under the table. and my good one giving me my fix. I lose conciousness just after reading the name of the brand.

“Er ugh phwwww ah eth-an-ol. Hugh stupid name”

I woke up early that day I got up and found my bottle had left my hand I looked around the tent but saw no one. After a jagged stretch and a fierce yawn I made my way out the tent to see it was one of at least 15 huddled together between the two valleys I saw earlier.

”when did this happen then”

I thought to myself as I realized it must have been after I got knocked out .it wasn't long before I saw someone in this tent huddle appear even if the sun hadn't risen fully yet but just daybreak. But it wasn't a human no way was it human it was a werewolf by the looks of it being covered in dark blue fur and strangely powerful lower legs with clawed toes.

“that's not fair!”

i thought with nothing to do if I was spotted by her .so I decided to hide by the barrels just in front of the tent door .and then I listened first to strange rattling and sniffing and growling sounds I never herd of before come from any normal wolf that's for sure .but then To a more recognizable growl.

“hungry ehh ? That explains why you're on ya own"

I began formulating a plan to take this scrounger down I reached back into the tent and saw that although the lady's not here her things are surely threes something I could use. Looking I find that apparently she had a crossbow in the tent with us.

“hmm gold trimmed and steel reinforced great !”

realizing what a top notch quality weapon this is I now needed something to fire .i saw on the table were the lady's hair braids silver hair braids

perfect”

I said in sweet joy I took one of then and after knocking a bolt head of I wedged it in the tip instead making a crude silver bolt for the crossbow.

I know if I missed theirs no chance I would stand an attack from a werewolf with one hand so I looked and sought something that would guarantee that it would strike its flesh. I looked and saw looking on the fire a small bird of some kind

“well she's hungry ain't she and I need my drink”

I said to myself in quite. Soon I garbed the bird from the fire still dripping with moisture I got behind the barrels and knew the scrounger was still nearby I threw the bird just outside the cover of the barrels and new that she was coming I quickly tested if I could hold my crossbow with just my right hand. “cm-on lift!!!!” .just barely it would seam .as the werewolf came and saw the bird I herd something I felt crawl up my spine a loud almost satire of drooling and gargling as the wolf jumped on the bird and dove right besides me taking a big bite.

”now was my time“

I thought. i stood up and by now the wolf noticed me and her pointy ears on top of her head stood full attention “she knows ill kill her. right now strike her right between those stupid ears. and right out the whiskers!”

I did this before and yet somehow I find that I always feel like the moment before I pull my trigger or draw my sword for the kill time just slows down to a trickle. I remember years ago when the zombie invasion of Claudia was in full swing 12 years ago no 14 years ago I was so green then. So green yet somehow I managed to hold my own thanks to my drill instructors advice .when I finally dealt my first fatal blow to one of them my drill man was there .he saw me drop my sword and I was shaking from head to toe but he grabbed my sword and put it back in my hands and I think he said

“its a weird feeling just before killing something you hide it as best as you want but you'll never get used to it so don't try”

I had that same feeling now but I couldn't let it make me miss. Tensing my grip I aim the cross sights over her head and as easy as it could be I pulled the trigger. Watching as the string instantly flew releasing the crudely made bolt through the air aiming straight for its target even as fine strands of fibber flew of the string the bolt still flew and even as the werewolf tried to get out of the way it still struck her but not in the head but just her lower right leg

It all happened too fast to keep track after that my instincts were indeed better in my earlier days but now at nearly 31 bah I had better luck being the carer like the cattle man who bandaged me up.

But inevitably it still happened the wolfs agility impressing even gypsy dancers high kicked my face in mid air after taking a bolt though crudely made. to the foot. I stumbled back and tripped over the barrels. With no feeling all over my face except for my beard and a wet feeling running down my ear.

“agghh oww owwwie”

I herd as I barely lifted my head to find that even though I was down so was she. Soon after I found that the head braid was stuck in her leg lodged deep inside her wound. That would indeed cause her more pain than the wound itself.

“haha ha gotcha monster”

was all I could say I was too stunned to do anything all I could do was boast the inevitable end.

“whuhh what you mean you got me?

the whimpering monster said softly looking at me.

“you can't even get up to catch me"

as if she was stating the obvious she let out a sweet smile as she got up on her all fours. “besides unlike you humans im more fulf than you think”i watch in shock as my work was going to get out of my trap. “hold it were not finished yet “ I screamed as I lounged myself at her grabbing her damaged leg I grab onto it with both my hands resolved to never let go no matter what.

“you're going nowhere “

i boasted as she tried every trick to get me of her .only to trip over the same barrels I did a few moments ago. i found my chance and straddled her chest my fists readied by my face to make this struggle bloody if I had to.

”whagghh whahhh waiit I never thought id end up like this”

she screams in embarrassment. It soon turned into a brawl in its ugliest at least by my standard. after several blows being exchanged she made her flaw. flying her left hand aimlessly at my face. I simply bobbed and weaved my body out of her path then I returned blows I set a fierce right blow to her face knocking her hard enough to turn facing to the side. I new now was my time to end this.

As she was recovering from my barrage I grabbed a barrel and with its hole facing downwards I picked her up by the fur of her head and slammed the barrel down as quick as can be. “stay in there while you cool of” I said softly soothing the pain in my damaged wrist .wait what?. My wrist! Yes my hand is ok that's a relief .In the light of my surprise however I herd a muffled sound come from the wolf.”wait wahhh! Who turned out the lights!”.even now ive not won should she get out of that barrel its all over. I new I had to wait for someone to help me properly capture her.

“just sit still and be quiet"

I say as I kick the barrel I then herd a rush of footsteps then screams as I herd that from behind me I new my men were here.

“here that monster should be around here”

that sound...its familiar its the lady!i soon took a deep breath looking down on me I see that my entire left side of my jerkin is drenched in cold but frighteningly red blood. I look further down I see my hands I cant see that far? I could've sworn I could I bring them close to my face and to my shock I found that they were

“empty!"

soon I found that the steps were now here.

”stand you're ground and fight mon...ster"

“a bold deceleration lady shame you messed up the end.”

somehow after hearing both her and my voices I felt as if I was just as much a monster in her eyes. no in all there eyes I slowly turn my head as I do I can just faintly see and here that wolf squirming and whimpering.

i turn further turning nothing more than my head and arms rotating them as far as they can go.

Until finally I saw her her with those fancy cloths and sword and at 6 figures growing dark in my eyes. I suddenly felt angry. I felt as if my life was on edge once more thanks to her!if I was going I was gunna give her hell for it at least.

”tell me who do you think is the monster then?”

“agghh god above all”

I herd faintly from one of the clustered shadows

“quick get the ordelie again quick!”

I herd the lady scream.

“oh my com...no baldor that's your name right?.”

my names is baldor indeed it is the name of a dead man to be. I could tell she was avoiding my face out of fear she really does think of me as a monster!. One in human flesh and clothes I was a fool to think my life could be as simple as settling down on some farm and rotting my days away at the bar.

“erm your hand its moving again that's good. lucks on your side you cant give up ye...”

”my hand!? Who cares about my hand! I dont! The bottles gone! Im sober!! and I caint even feel my face no more!!!”

soon after that my legs felt numb but my body felt warmer the wind no longer sucked the heat away from me I soon found myself laying there being dragged of somewhere by those darkened shadows I saw again.

I was dead right? Why am I still thinking why am I still seeing I felt calm however as if my pain has been taken away from me by the gods themselves. I then had a premonition a thought was put in my head I didn't understand its message though.

“go”

was all I herd faintly at first then it got louder

“go go go GO GO!"

go? Go where I thought to myself im dead right my life's up im going nowhere except to the after bar my adventure is done.

“GO!!"

go where I don't get it at all.

“to him”

a thought was put in my head an image burned in my mind .as if I was there myself I saw a baby in the middle of a cave surrounded by wolves fighting around it but it wasn't afraid. to the contrary it was asleep. In fact the baby was the same one that I found in the woods but that made no sense right? I mean if I was beaten by that spider the boy would be with her as she wanted him right?

”go!”

Fine but even if I went I wouldn't know where that cave is. Soon I felt another thought enter my head. A new image of hills and a path laid in pure light was painted on it. I knew those hills they were close about 6 hours ride away from our camp.

”now GO!!”.

My eyes shot open my breath strong with new found life once more without even waiting to get my bearings or a description of my condition shot up instantly rising on my feet to meet my eyes with the similar faces of the lord lady the cattle driver and 3 of my own men all stood in awe of the sudden awakening.

“comman...”.

“boss”

“good sir”

I herd all at once come from the lord lady one of my men and the cattle driver.

“you need to rest good sir. that was a closer call than the wrist. that wolf must have nearly taken your head off.”

“just let me sit”

I find myself being held as I slowly make my way to the table in the middle of the tent. Being dragged there almost by the cattle driver and one of my men the other 2 just standing there in awe along with the lord lady.

“At least sit by the fire then”

the old man turned to face the other man who just stood there watching

“here you go get you're leader something hot to eat"

I new my soldiers well he would indeed do so if it was for me

yes ordelie”

I saw him almost fall trying to get out of the tent door as fast as he could.

“Tell me then ordelie”

sounding stronger than I expected after just passing out.

” tell me just 3 things and ill eat “

he pulled a chair and set by the fire next to me.

“go on then but your not going on adventures anytime soon.”

shortly after he folded his bloodied arms in what id expect to be my blood. I soon spoke

“1 what's the damage 2 what time is it and 3 agghh oggh “

I found my throat was dry clogged full of either blood or dried alcohol stuck to my mouth.

”yes and 3?”

"is there any drink left?”

he soon unfolded his arms just as I expected the outcome he was interrupted by the lord lady

”you nearly died twice in the last day and a halve and yet you're after drink!?”

I soon coddled her before she got into a rant about drinking.

”i needs my drink it works betta than any bandage or stitch it stedis my nerves”

I thought that would give her ample explanation. But since when did I ever get to understand women.

“You've got some nerve indeed! You shouldn't get me angry at you again especially after you wouldn't even go save child lost in the world”

it was silent for a while. No one new what I was thinking even I couldn't remember what I decided to do. Then the soldier returned with some barley soup in a plane bowl cracked along the rim of it.

“sorry commander...”

he paused placing it on the table next to me

”i tried to get something else...but this is all that's left”

“its ok ill have it”

I spoke softly. As I ate my soup picking od bits of husks from my teeth I stared at the ordelie.

“So ...tell me “

the old man sat silent contemplating his next actions

“well youre head injury was minimal....but the blood loss was the real problem.but thats ok now”

I sat patiently listning to him eating my soup

“ its just past noon...the sun is on its way to the west now”

noons good it means I can make it to thwe caves iif I had a horse

“ and yes....of course we have drink”

he pulled out another bottle from his medical kit. Eth-an-ol was on a big lable like the last one.

“good.good “

I said finishing the rest of the soup took the bottle and stood...wobbling at first the old man and the little lady both went to hold me steady

“whoa whoa hold it not too much ok”

the ordelie spoke then the little lady spoke in a surprisingly concerned tone

“please you should rest baldor”

“as if...i gotta get a horse ...you go get one of our cross country horses”

I snickered mocking them for worrying. The soldier I ordered to go get my horse shot up did his salute and made of to the horse pens.

“What ..why a horse where are you going?”

“ahh...im of for a stroll ok”

I responded to little lady

she didn't seem satisfied however after several minutes I and 2 men on horses ready ourselves just outside the camp.

“what ever happens who ever asks.....we went on a hunt ok?”

“yes sir” was all I needed and all I had ….and so we set of ….to find that cave....to find that child....
