A Kingdom Defeated (Rape rp)

[Maero]

Technically, it began some hours later as they sun began to rise and its colors splayed over the army of the Saxon as they prepared to defend their castle strong hold. Alexander was no where to be seen, but before he had disappeared he told Hunter that he had a plan and to ready most of the soldiers to storm out the front gates instead of defend the castle. So down in the courtyard was the army, assembled and in full armor, ready to charge out to their certain deaths.

He told Hunter to await his signal before having them march, and to move quickly once he did. He had not told Hunter what the signal was, but he said it would be obvious. Outside, the enemy prepared to besiege them. Rows of Catapults could be seen from the castle walls and balista and siege ladders were being assembled. From the look it, they planned to hurl all their Catapult ammo at them and then wrench loose and throw every stone in the land and hurl that as well before they actually began to approach what was left with their superior force. Indeed they seemed to be taking no chances, and their soldiers relaxed behind lines upon lines of archers that stood ready to shoot and kill any Saxon that left the castle.

Indeed, the very idea of marching out of the castle seemed suicidal to a degree that even the martyrs didnt like. But they were all good soldiers and did as they were told. Suddenly, a strange sight appeared at the enemy camp. A lone Saxon stood before the army, somehow having avoided being seen until now. The shocked enemy quickly dispatched some forces to chase down and kill the man, who Hunter would recognize as Alexander, even from such a great distance. Alexander did not charge forward though and instead stood still as they charged at him. Suddenly, a plume of black fire raced across the scene and scooped him up. His new war mount charged across the battle field, Alexander now on its back.

The soldiers were unable to catch up and so the enemy Cavalry gave chase. Nearly the whole army's horse men now chased Alexander in circles as he led them around. But all this seemed to do was make the enemy suspicious and they aimed their bows carefully for the front of the castle, insuring a swift death for any who left. And then suddenly the Cavalry surrounded him and he began to fight. It seemed as though Alexander had thrown away his life until two things happened.

The first, and most notable was that Alexander blew into his whistle, summoning up whatever beast Axel had placed within it. The beast, if it was even half as destructive as Axel had said, would rip the cavalry to pieces and deprive the enemy of almost all their horsemen.

But the second was by far more damaging. Alexander had attracted all attention to either himself or the castle, and so no one saw the horse men that he had secretly led outside during the night as they charged into the exposed back of the enemy army. Without any cavalry to repel them, the enemy took horrible losses in only a few minutes.

The army, which was not expecting a fight, fell onto disarray and confusion, and the archers, now suddenly so close to the attack enemy force, turned their backs to the castle and tried to gain some distance from the attack horsemen. Now, with their backs turned, and their archers defenseless towards anything the castle happened to produce, Alexander roared with all his might, an Echo that spread across the whole battlefield and even to those within the castle. "We are Legion!" The signal was given, the trap was set, and if Hunter deployed now, it would be like two halves of a mouth sinking their teeth into the flesh of their pray in a vicious, and powerful pincer maneuver.
