Flavian noticed a large mass of accumulating black dots on the desert horizon. Could this be the approaching 'small' battalion of undead army he was informed of? It was shocking. There was no way any amount of assasins could beat this large mass of opponents. Turning towards the city, he was surprised to see that all defense mechanisms were in place. On the city walls were two rows of archers ready to fire at any given moment. There was something his was uninformed of. A pigeon flew low among the desert skies. Holding up his forearm, it landed on it and Flavian took the folded note firmly placed on the bird's leg.
Assasins retreat until further notice..
That was all the note had in it and that was the order he wanted. Quickly, he dashed towards the city gates which were starting to close.
The large mass of undead army lead him to question where they originated from. If the army were normal beings, there would be enough of them to run a developed city. Never before had such a large mass of evil been set before his eyes. Perhaps there was a city which was infected by an undead virus and then lead to attack us?

Iavas ran down the street to where Lecta and Eleyym stood. He rushed up, "Eleyym, where did you get that sword? It seems familiar..." He said, with an inquiring glance, "Anyway, are you guys ready to fight." He started to unlatch his packs full of needles and shruikens. He also loosened to cork on his Air elemental vile, it contained a substance that empowers air elemenkinetic power that he had bought while adventuring before he overheard the guards speaking of the attack.

"I'm not sure Iavas. Get inside the city Lecta!" i yelled. There was no need for us to die first, amongst the hunreds that might die now...I had to get the group out of here, fast.
I was scared. i was nervous. Never had i fought in such a large battle before. I watched the spears come out of the walls, and the spikes rise out of the sand. It was a clever system, but i didn't know how well it'd hold. Archers filed along the top of the walls, and foot soldiers lined the streets near the gates, readying themselves for battle. Me and Lecta stood seperate from the regiments, completely out of place. Where was the rest of the group? and what would happen to flavian? How would we find him in the mess....

Finally reaching the innards of the city, he rushes to the nearest tower. It would be of the city's benefit for anyone to help. Taking a bow and arrow from the armory, he runs to the nearest passage area with enough space to let him through. Taking his bow, he pulls out an arrow from its quiver. Releasing the string, the arrow lands at the longest possible distance. This would be the range limit for all archers.

"I could easily destroy that army..."she whispered and a smile spread across her face"Air and sand are a deadly combination..."she whispered, a grin played on her lips"Asay!"she commanded, the dragon stared closer and layed beside her"I will go attack by air...Perhaps you all should stay and fight back here...."she commanded, climbing onto the dragons back, she removed her cloak and gave it to Eleyym"Take care of this..."she whispered"Up, up..."she ordered and the dragon took flight, its lungs filled with air. Her chest expending between the elves legs. They soon werre over the mass, they moved quick, Asay released a large stream of flames, ingulfing a large chunk of the enemy forces.

I took the cloak, and for the sake of agility, and needing free hands, i put the cloak around my neck. It must've been a strange sight, seeing me in black. I might have to change my clothes soemtime.... i thought to myself dreamily...But that ws only half my brain. The other half was panicking. I was nervous, for not only had Lecta left me, which meant i had nobody to protect, I was standing here, alone, expected to fight against thousands of undead....Perhaps i should go find somebody else to protect...Lecta would wish it....

Lecta felt bad for leaving Eleyym, but he was not one to fight, he was her healer, and protector. A sigh escaped her lips, a large ball of air formed in her pants and needles shot out from the gray mass, hitting many in the head, and died instantly. Others in the body and they continued walking. The scent of rotting and burning flesh reached her nose. It smelt horrable. She felt Asay take in another breath and release another stream of Flames from her mouth.

I raced through the city. The boy had been going to the Dojo, and supposedly, that was where the military trained their soldiers. Perhaps he'd be there...Or if he wasn't, somebody there who could tell me. I went in the direction he had the other day, trying to find the dojo....

Iavas watched Lecta, fly off. Stay safe my Queen he thought while he started running towards the mass. He dragged a few needles out of his pack and spread them out in front of him. He runned with them dragging behind him, then he stopped and launched them at the mass of undeads. He then leaunched a set of shruikens at their heads. As they circled around him, he launched himself into the air and sent a poweful blast at the ground, pelting the undeads with sand. He then flew back to the city to regroup and ready for a second attack.

Asay stopped midflight, staying afloat in the air. Lecta's hair fluttered about and her vains popped in her forehead. A large wave of sand came crashing up from the side, violently burrying some of the undead in a neverending ocean of sand rock particles. A smile spread across her face, Asay flew around behind Iavas, comming up from behind, she swooped, taking many of the creatures into her mouth and crushed them between her jaws. Spitting them out, her saliva ran out of her jaws, doing another round about. Asay released another river of flames"You need to be more Carefull Iavas!".

He had just realized he had hit Lecta. "Very sorry Lecta" He said to her flying of through their attack lines. I wonder what this looks like to the soldiers on the wall.
The soldier watched as a white line fly through the grey undeads. The undeads where flying up at the sides of the White line. Who has the ability to do that The soldier wondered.
Iavas chuckled at the thought of it. He continued flying through their lines then drew out some shruikens at lanuched them to his sides and upwards, hitting airborne and standing undeads. He then started flying in the general direction of Lecta.

Lecta let out a laugh, the army was cut down to a few"This wasnt to hard...the humans did nothing and it was only the three of us that did most of the damage..."she smirked, Asay roared out in agreement, flying up in the air and did a backflip"Wonderfull!"she sighed, throwing the air ball towards the mass and it exploded on contact.

I noticed, out of the corner of my eye, that Lecta was decreasing eenmy ranks severly. But many more of them kept on coming. The archers were getting ready, when i noticed something unusual... An arrow was fired out of the center of the city, It was obviously not aimed at any one undead, nor any enemy at all. What was that....A mark! It was a mark shot. Whoever shot that arrow was a high status soldier....Flavian I thought. He must've been high class, for his devotion must've meant he was promoted quickly...If i could find him anywhere, it'd be there, at the center of the city.....

The undeads crossed the first fired mark arrow. "All soldiers, firing position! Ready, release!" he orders. "Fire!"
Flavian did not know why the dragon flew into the army, risking herself of getting hit of artillery. This made him wonder if she even noticed the archers. The sky was filled with countless arrows all aimed towards the undead-and the elven dragon rider. Focusing a telekenetic barrier, he deflected arrows close to the dragon and directed them towards other areas of the stampeding army.
After the first wave of arrows, multiple cannons, catapult and spears were fired, fogging the desert sands with arrows and explosions. A second wave of arrows were fired, significantly slowing down the raging mob of undead. Followed by a rage of cannon fire, those in the front line were blown asunder. Every wave of attack, Flavian was forced to protect the dragon ally, draining much of his own energy.
By this time, the undead battalion was probably reduced to half within the first fifteen minutes of battle. The opposition knew this would happen so why bother attacking?

"Flavian!!" i yelled through the city. I know he may have been able to protect himself, but even generals die in war. The undead were closing in on the city. It would seen be overrun..Even with Asay's fire, and lecta's wind, the Undead outnumbered even Maral's soldiers...I had to find flavian. If he was to be kept alive for sure, somebody would have to keep an eye on him...I intended to make sure that eye belonged to me....
