The Legend of Vinnycent: Chapter 2


As I walked out of the forest, I found what I was looking for; civilization. Before me, I saw a huge city, filled with homes, shops, stands, and hundreds of people. As I walked to the brown walls, I reminisced about the past 2 months in the forest. When I finally got to the gate, there were guards in front of it.
"Hey, what is your name?" asked a guard, who was holding a sheet of paper and a quil.
"That's not important, just let me in," I said.
"Not important?! I need your name, or you won't be allowed into the city. So sir, what is your name?"
"... Vinnycent"
"What was that? I couldn't hear you."
"Vinnycent!" I stated. After pondering for a moment, the guard started to laugh.
"So YOUR Vinnycent! I can't believe you got kicked out of the army. Only a moron can do that," said the guard. "Alright, you can go in." The guard made a gesture to another guard to open the gate. As I walked through, I was still able to hear the guard chuckling, while writing down my name. As soon as I came out of hearing distance from any of the guards, I spotted a crowd of men surrounding something. I went over there to find out what it was.
"Please sir! Please don't kill me! I have a wife, and... and 7 kids!" cried a man with a knife to his throat.
"A wife and 7 children eh? I highly doubt you have 7 children, and even more a wife!" said the attacker, while laughing.
"I'll have you know, ALL the girls always crowd around me. For example, just the other day..."
"ALL the girls crowd around you, you say? So, how did it work for my wife and her friends at the shop stand?!" The attacker put his knife closer to the other man's neck.
"Hey!" I said. Everybody in the crowd started to stare at me as I walked toward the two men. "If you want a fight, fight me instead!"
"YOU?! Hahaha! Yeah right. But if you insist, after I finish up this guy right here..." I quickly ran over to him while drawing my sword, and put it up to his neck.
"If you want to live, I suggest you turn the other way," I stated. The man took a few steps back, dropped his knife, and ran away. I noticed around me the crowd was still staring at me. "Well, if any of you want to replace him in fighting me..." The crowd quickly vanished, leaving me and the man alone. "Ludicris, just the man I wanted to see."
"Vinnycent, I told you not to call me that. Call me Lud. Ludicris sounds strange. Anyway, lets get out of here before anybody else wants to fight. Follow me to my home," Lud said. He walked forward, then gestured me to follow him. I put away my blade, and walked behind him. Eventually, we made it to his house. "I want you to stay out here, Vinnycent. My roommate doesn't like uninvited visitors. I'm going to go tell him your here. And if you here objects being thrown... it's my pet monkey." Before I could comment about the monkey, he went inside.
"You brought a visitor?!" screamed a familiar voice. "I told you before... I don't like company!"
"I'm sorry, I'll just tell Vinnycent..."
"Wait, his name's Vinnycent? Maybe... no, it couldn't be... could it?"
I then walked inside, and examined the room.
"Vinnycent! I told you to stay outside!" said Lud. I ignored him, and continued examining the room. The only people in the room were Lud and me, besides a small creature sitting on a chair.
"Vinnycent, it IS you!" cried the small creature. I quickly took a step back, stunned at what I just witnessed. "Oh, that's right. You probably don't remember me. Sorry for not introducing myself. I'm your old pal Dex. Remember me? We were in the army together. Unfortunately, during the war, when I was alone, I thought I saw something in the sky. When I looked up, however, I only saw the clouds in the sky. A few seconds later, however, I transformed into the creature you see before you now. I knew I couldn't go back to the army, so I found my way here instead. Then, I met Lud. He let me stay with him ever since. I know it may be hard to believe, but it's the truth. You'll just have to trust me."
"Hm... well, you DO sound like the Dex I remember. I guess the only thing I CAN do is to believe it. I thought you were gone. I searched for you everywhere, but couldn't find you. After about a week, I had to give up looking..." I said.
"Well, looks like you've finally found me at last."
"Don't mind me Vinnycent, but why did you come here in the first place?" asked Lud.
"Well, there's this sword..."
"Wait, don't tell me. Your talking about the Light Sword, aren't you?" asked Lud. "You know how dangerous it is to find it. Generations after generations of people have tried to get it, but all have failed."
"I know the legend, Lud. I just wanted to know where the sword was."
"Just curious, what do you want the sword for anyway?" asked Dex.
"Well, I want to get back at the king that took away my position. If I had the Light Sword, I would be able to take his thrown, and be the new king! I could get back at everybody who had ever mocked me!" Dex pondered this for a moment, then looked like he made a decision.
"Ok... I know where you can find a map that leads to the Light Sword. It's at the museum not too far away from here. I must warn you... it is filled with guards. I suggest that if you still want to go anyway, we go during the night, so we won't be as noticeable," said Dex.
"Ok, sounds good to me," I stated.
"Not me! You guys are insane! How do you expect to get past the guards?! Ok, you guys can go by yourselves. Just count me out!"
"Fine with me. How about you, Vinnycent?"
"I don't mind one bit."
"Ok then. Lets get some rest before the journey. You don't want to be tired while your trying to rob something. You can sleep on the couch."
I went to the couch and went to sleep. I couldn't help but think about what would happen once I woke up...
