X-Legion Fort Festus Date, December 18 Decanus Antonius Decimus Lucius 12PM
"Today's my birthday." I said with rejoice. My best friend, Tribunus Gaius Octavius Cornelius, "I know, I hope the gods gift for you is strength. You'll need it today, we're going into battle against 250 unknown soldiers. All we know about them is their here to kill us." "Oh please, with you as our commander, we can easily defeat them." "Thank you for your kind word's my friend." As we started putting on our armor and gathering our equipment, Imperator Markus Alurius Scaro walked in. "Ave." "Ave." We both said. The Imperator's face looked grim, "I'm sorry about your unit, but I must take 100 of your unit." "What is wrong?" Gaius asked. "The unknowns have a second force approaching from the East, while your going to be defending the West." At this Octavius replied, "Let Antonius command the rest of my unit." I was in shock of course, "What? Why me Sir?" "He know's all of my strategies and has saved my life countless times." Markus said, "All right, I'll let him try, but I'm going to send another Legatus in case thing's go bad." "Thank you Sir." The Imperator walked out, "Don't fail me men." "May we see eachother after this." "Agreed brother." We hugged, "First one done
Fort Festus, East Battlefield Evocatus Antonius Decimus Lucius 3PM As me and my personal guard of Legionaires move to the outside of the East gate, we heard catapults being fired from a distance behind us. "Dang, he's going into battle so soon? Crazy." As we see the enemy approaching, I shout to the orders to the men, so do the "Javelins at the ready!" I shouted. "Fire!" In a few seconds Javelins were flying through the air, taking out tons of troops everywhere.Then, what ever remained in the enemy unit charged at us. "Swords!" "Shields! Hold your ground!" The enemies bashed against our shields, sometimes breaking through, in which case a soldier quickly stab the enemy. "Now! Push!" The Roman shields pushed back the enemy troops, knocking them off their feet. "Charge!" My men, stabbing the ones that were down and rushing the ones who were still up. All of a sudden we hear a horn, then their cavalry charge at us."Fall back infantry!" I charge at their cavalry with my sword and javelin at the ready. Slash! Straight through the first and second horseman, as one is about to shoot an arrow at me, I throw my shortsword at him, splitting his head in half. Using my javelin as a lance, I stab one horseman in the neck as he hits me off my horse. "Aghh, dang...." As I stand there in pain, I see the enemy leaders chariot charging at me. "Take this you son of Pluto." I threw my only javelin, hitting him straight between the eyes, making him fall off and letting his horses roam free. Whatever troops remained in their ranks had fled by now, so my army did their victory shouts. Many commended me on the battle and my tactics. The Legatus who fought by my side, even commended me, "That was quite impressive." "Thank you." As we marched towards Fort Festus, only losing a few men, we held our heads high.
Fort Festus, Food Hall Decanus Antonius Decimus Lucius 8PM Men were cheering and laughing, drinking wine to the victory our armies had won this day. "Where is legatus Gaius Octavius Cornelius?" I yelled outloud. The room immediately went dead silent. "You haven't heard?" One of the Legionaires from his unit told me. "Heard what?" "His body hasn't been found..." I trembled, I walked away with great agony going through my body.
If you like it please say so, so I will know whether or not to continue the storyline. Decanus Antonius Decimus Lucius |
