[Queen of Spades]

((Well, I have my epic idea ready to go, but unfortuneately, I can't start it today. Because I'm gonna be gone all day tomorrow, so that wouldn't really work too well. But, we can start it on Monday or something.))

[angeldoll090]

((Okay.))

[Queen of Spades]

((Alright. Now, in order for this to work, it has to be night again. So, I was thinking about warping back to night once more. Of course, I need everyone's consent.))

[angeldoll090]

((Fine with me. All Bliss is doing is riding a horse.))

[Innocence]

{go ahead my people are doing nothing}

[Queen of Spades]

((Alright, I now have the post made up! Poof! It's night! And here's my post, stating what's even going on.))

Two more days and I'll be a free man. Andrian thought happily as he stood next to the window in his new room. He was staring at the stars. His father had become worried about his free spirit, so he was located to one of the towers, so he couldn't just hop out of the window in his first floor room. Which Andrian had already done, but no one had to know. But, now he couldn't just hop out and hop back in. If he hopped out, he could break a leg, and even if he made it out unscathed, he'd have no way of getting back in. It wasn't a very tall tower. On the contrary, it was the shortest in the castle, but it was a good three stories high.
His thoughts were cut short when he hears two grunts then the tell-tale sound of bodies hitting the floor outside his room. He grabbed his sword from the bedside, and headed to the door, expecting someone to burst right through. That's when he knew it was all a trap. The moment he heard the placement of a bolt into a crossbow. He swiftly turned, hoping to evade the shot, only to get a crossbow bolt embedded in his chest. It wasn't the side of his heart, which made sense, because if he was turned, his heart would technically be on the opposite side of where it was when facing the person. Andrian fell to his knees, his hand clenched around the hilt of his sword. He felt another bolt hit his shoulder as he tried to get up. He ran towards his attacker, managing to get a hit on his chest with the blade of his sword, and making the assassin fall out of the window. He then heard the doors behind him open. "He's wounded, kill him!" A voice ordered. Andrian slowly turned to face the onslaught of at least ten armed men bearing down on him. Survival instinct kicked in, and the prince started to fight them.
Despite being wounded, Andrian fought well, his will to survive helping quite a bit here. He actually did manage to take down the group, and their bodies were littering the room. He took a quick glance around the room before he himself collapsed, his sword sliding away from him as it hit the hard stone floor. He could feel the growing amount of blood on his clothing, and he could see some of the liquid slowly puddling around him before it went black.
~~~~~
Currently, Bertram and Idonea were both asleep, but they both awoke to the sound of yelling outside the door. It came from the guards who guarded their room. The king quickly grabbed his sword, and rushed to the door, only to find his guards fighting with some cloaked men. He joined in the fight. With him there, it basically ensured victory. When the last one fell, he turned to the sound of a muffled scream. Idonea was being forced to the window. "Unhand her." He ordered while striding towards them, sword raised. The assassin merely put a knife to the queen's throat. "Come any closer and the only thing that'll be left of her will be her corpse." Bertram stopped, though his face was unchanged. Soon, a side door opened, and an archer came in and shot the assassin, freeing the queen, who in turn ran to the safety of her husband's arms. "Alert the town." Was Bertram's simple orders to the guards.

Instead of laying in bed, waiting for the sleep that wouldn't come until much later, Lakyle was up, fully dressed, and cleaning up some of the dishes. He didn't even hear anything, yet somehow, he suddenly felt an incredible stinging sensation on his back, like he had been cut. The pain spread from the middle of his back to his shoulder. He staggered back, then another strike was placed on his chest. He looked at his attacker for a second. He was in a black cloak, so he couldn't tell what he looked like. His gaze then turned to the wound on his chest. He felt himself falling. It felt like he was falling in slow motion. The last thing he remembered, was seeing the floor before him before he blacked out.
~~~~~
She didn't know what woke her, but as soon as Naia blinked open her eyes, she could tell something was wrong. She teetered out of bed, and headed to the kitchen. "Brother, what are-" She suddenly stopped, her eyes growing wider as she examined the scene before her. Her older brother was on the floor, in the middle of a pool of red liquid the young girl knew as blood. She didn't react right away, not really knowing how to react. Soon enough, she shrieked loudly. "Lakyle!" She screamed as she ran to her brother's body on the floor. Her feet got wet, and her white nightgown was getting stained red at the hem as she tried to help her brother. After no avail, she remembered what Rose told her, "If you need help, just come over." The six year old dashed out the door, and ran down the street, tears welling in her eyes as she started to cry. When she came to Rose's house, she banged on the door as loud as she could. "Rose! Rose! It's Naia! Help, please help!" She yelled frantically.
~~~~~
Gabriel had just successfully fended off the assassins that were sent to kill him, with nary a scratch. They didn't know how to react to his magic. He ran out of his house and towards the city. When he arrived, there were guards scurrying to and fro, warning people of assassins and saying how the king was attacked and queen almost killed. The city bell was also ringing, warning people to stay inside. He himself ran throughout the town. He soon came upon a young girl banging on the door. She was stained in someone else's blood, he could tell. She herself wasn't hurt, yet her feet, legs, and hands were all red. He strode over to her. Naia looked up, then squealed lightly. "Don't worry, I'm here to help you." He said calmly. He bent down so he was level with her. "What happened?" "My-my-my brother... He got h-hurt." She stuttered, obviously trying her hardest not to cry while talking. "Rose can help me." She said simply. Gabriel stood, recognizing the name. He himself knocked on the door. "Rose, it's Gabriel, the mage leader." He called through the door.
~~~~~
Ever since she heard the bell, Jacine was busy getting dressed. She was asleep when the bell sounded, and it quickly woke her up. She lived in the country outside the city, so she never heard the yells of guards, but the bell was a different story. She dashed out of her house, and towards the city. While travelling down the road, a knight caught up wither her. He was blonde, and had a sword in his hand. "I'm gonna be your travel buddy for the night." He said simply. "Call me Stephan." Jacine was a little surprised, but just nodded, and ran beside the knight. "And I'm Jacine." She responded.
~~~~~
What the hell's going on? Fleur thought as she stood amongst all of the panicked people rushing back to their homes. What they were doing out in the first place this late, she'd never know. She would sometimes get clipped by a villager, but wouldn't think much of it as she slowly wandered around, hoping to get more info. A guard rushed past her on a horse, then screeched to a halt. "There are enemies about, seek shelter immediately!" He warned her, then sped off. Fleur glared. I'll do what I want, jerk. She thought, then continued to walk. She soon broke out into a run towards the castle. That would be the best place to see the action. That's where the enemies probably were.

((Well, that was hell typing up. So, make the most of this post, dang it. Don't let the RP die after I slaved away, trying to get this up. =P

Oh, and for assassins, you control your own. But remember, the only ones getting attacked are heads, second in commands, and royalty. Not everyone has to get hurt, some can come out unscathed, like Gabriel did, or some can nearly die, like what poor Andrian and Lakyle are going through. Oh, and for those who have non-important characters, villagers and just the normal knights, like Stephan, Jacine, Fleur, Julian, Selda, and others, they can get hurt if they try to defend people, or just get in the way, or find one of the assassins. Because then the assassins would want to kill them.))

[Innocence]

Yvette looked up and saw shadows along the castle wall. She gasped and hid behind a tree. She peeked around and heard screams form the castle. Yvette's eyes went wide with horror as she heard people being killed.

Bliss was deep in sleep when she was woke with the sound of metal clanking together. She sat up quickly wondering what was going on outside her door and window. She quickly got out of her bed and went to the door, opening it. Her eyes widened, seeing cloaked men fighting with the guards. Soon the guards had fallen and the men were making their way towards her. Bliss screamed as she backed into her room again and closed her door quickly. She looked around for something to block her door, but nothing was there that would keep them out. Bliss gasped as the door flew open and she looked for something to use for defense.
~~~~~~
As soon as she heard the guards and bell, Selda had gotten her armor on and was out. She ran towards the castle to help. Being one of the better knights, she had the right to be there instead of the village. She could easily get rid of assasins. Selda made her way into the grounds.

[Hug-A-Bull]

Soon after Gabriel had knocked, Julian opened the door, but he icnored both the girl and the mage as he ran to his horse. He quickly mounted up and began to ride towards the castle to help fight off any of the attackers that were still there.

Rose quickly followed. She fell to her knees and hugged Naia, "It's okay Sweetie, I'm here. What happened?" She said calmly as she released the girl and looked into her eyes. She was in full archer's armor, bow and arrows were at her feet as she knelt before the girl. She then noticed Gabriel and looked up at him, "How bad is it at this point?" She asked quickly, expecting the other lead to know something.

~~~

Ace woke quickly to the sound of something outside his door. He laid in his bed silently as he listened intently. His body tensed emmencely as he heard the door to his chambers being opened. He quickly shut his eyes, hoping this was all just a horrible nightmare. The scent of blood hung in the air, and the warning bell's demonic ringing shattered the normal silence of the night.
He suddenly jumped up and tried to run past the cloaked attacker, "Fath-" He began to yell for help, but the attacker quickly grabbed him and covered his mouth with a cloth. The young prince tried to hold his breath as long as he could, but he eventually had to take a breath. Soon his vision became clouded, and he soon passed out in the arms of his attacker.

[Queen of Spades]

"I don't know how many people have been attacked. I have, and it sounds like this girl-" "Brother was hurt! He's on the floor at home and he's bleeding bad!" Naia interrupted. "I don't know what to do! He could be- he could be-" She was about to say dead, but she didn't want to add that as an option. Gabriel sighed lightly. "You help her. I'll go to the castle for you. Come when you're finished." He said then rushed off towards the castle. Naia was still crying and wiping her eyes, which caused more blood from her hands to get smeared onto her face.
~~~~~
When Stephan and Jacine reached the town, Stephan turned to the healer. "Alright, what's your job?" He questioned in a hurried tone. "Healer." Jacine replied with a light nod. "Good. You should stay in town and wait for the wounded. You can also inform your fellow healers." Jacine immediately ran off. "I'll do that right now!" She called back. Stephan continued to run towards the castle, spear in hand. While running, he could only imagine who the attack was from. It could be from anyone, really. Smaller countries that feared the largest country, some other people who were taken over and were now revolting, or, it could be the country they were planning on going to war with anyway. When he got closer to the castle, he noticed Selda up ahead. "Hey! Selda!" He called to her, now running towards her.
