Balrog
Sir Dragzfuth TWO

**
There I was, the 'fearless' knight,
running through the castle corridors in fright.
I reached the main hall gasping for air,
as my mind finally started to clear.
His royal majesty, however weird,
I must have them warned of this plot that forms in our wretched state.
One last thought I gave to memory of queen's magic eyes,
then I dashed again to look for our king.

Maid at king's chambers informed me he was up on the north tower wall,
hurried I reached the door to the tower,
but there two guards stopped me,
"I'm sorry sir, his majesty is not to be disturbed at this time,
we can't let thee pass", a short guard said trying to look tall. (;))
Eyeing him slowly I nodded, and said,
"I understand but my bussiness is urgent,
news I bring to his majesty are some that can't wait,
lives may be at stake if I come too late."
That said I stepped forward,
but guards closed down the way with their halberds,
"We cannot allow you to pass still,
my orders are clear,
and they are directly from illustrious lady Dolimite herself"
My face darkened,
lady Dolimite? What role does she play in this affair?
Could she know of the plots by the queen?
Or perhaps she's just playing a game of her own whim...
Lowering my voice to a threat I replied,
"Orders or not, I must see the king NOW,
you will allow me to do so,
or you may prefer to see if after I fought a three headed dragon,
you are willing to test out my swordsmanship skill."
With that said I pulled out my pearl hilted sword,
and looked back at guards as fire lit in my eyes.
Guards looked at each other,
then seconds of silence later their weapons were lowered,
"You are allowed to pass Sir Dragzfuth,
but please, for our own sake and yours,
we ask thee to keep this a secret sir."
"Granted soldier", I replied as I rushed up the stairs.

I heard voices of singing,
as I reached the door leading to tower wall,
opening it I glanced upon his majesty the king,
song echo I heard was from him.
Unsure what to do I just listened for shortwhile,
and then suddenly the king turned and saw me.
"Sir Dragzfuth, my friend,"
his eyes widened in happiness,
"you finally came to see your old buddy the king,
you dragon slayer you."

"Your majesty,"
I muttered,

"Majesty schmajesty,
call me Morticane you silly young fool,
so what brings you all the way up to the tower now?
Don't tell me, you heard my amorous singing,
and you just had to pay homage to me,
your good friend the king right?"
The king laughed, and then started singing again.

Confused, I stumbled for words,
"You majesty, this is important,
I have learned of this grave terrible things... her majesty the Q..."

"Oh hush, important things can wait my young friend,"
The king interrupted my words,
"you shall join me for a song or two,
and surely you must allow me,
your king the honour to share a drink with thee,
our all terrible dragon slayer."
That said he put his arm around my shoulders and went on singing.
"All the king's horses... whores..."

"But majesty", I tried again,
"Tis very important for me to explain this,
your queen...", yet I finished the sentence not,

"Do not speak of the queen Drazgfuth, my friend,
She won't even allow ME,
her king to buy whores when I want them,
what possible news of importance could anyone have about her,
save that she passed away that would interest me.
But come now, it's time for a song..."

Glancing down the walls,
I spotted lady Dolimite riding out of the castle,
putting the king under guard then riding away...
I pondered over her motives until seeing another thing that filled my heart with dismay.
'Tis was one of the windows in the main hall,
and I could clearly see the face,
whose voice I heard first time this morning today.
"Justin, my friend, come join me and Drazgfuth in a song,"
I heard king exclaim, as he noted sir Justin as well.

Dreaded, I turned and spoke to the king,
"My apologies your majesty,
I know it is rude but I have to take my leave,
Gladly will I share a song with you some other time,
But I have to ask now of you to excuse me..."

"Say no more, Drazgfuth, my friend"
the king would exclaim,
"I know matters of youth are more pressing,
then us elders would see fit to understand.
Farewell oh brave knight,
but make sure you pay visit to your old friend the king sometime soon as well."

As soon as the tower door closed behind me,
I started to run like out of my mind,
for I knew that this time if any,
if King's life was in danger,
If I didn't run fast enough,
mine was already gone.

Avoiding the main hall,
I ran through southern side passage,
reaching the intersection of the corridor wall,
I heard noise and footsteps,
desperate I reached for the nearest door and closed it behind me.
"Spread out, young fool must be somewhere near,
he couldn't have exited the castle yet",
I heard the voice of Sir Justin,
that sent chills through my bones.
Seeing the door exit was cut,
I looked around the room I found myself in.
't was one of the servants quarters,
and fortune on my side for a change, (or so I though)
there was a window in the opposite wall.

I climbed out just to find myself on a ledge some 6 meters from ground,
carefully as I tried to move on the ledge,
my left leg would slip,
and I dropped down like a rock...
Falling through a thin wodden roof of the building below,
I landed in a big stack of hay...
First look I found I fell right into the stable,
second, I felt a cold blade of steel on my neck,
and a voice I knew not rasped,
"Stay perfectly still, whoever you are..."

Here you go Mel, it took a little work but you can keep the stable scene :)
For one I am dying to find out what you plan for it, and for two, I think this worked like this out better then if I would have planned it myself.
And yes I am dying to see what happens next for all other characters too so all you ppl better write your butts off :)

And no need to apologize for getting over excited, as you can see I have similar problems. ;) And not even enough time to write as much as I want right now. *sniff*
