Chapter 3: The Four Horsemen

  The scene starts with Namato and Khatar at a bar in a town not too far from Bulltaureau. They are both in the back corner of the bar. Khatar is still bleeding from his robes. There is a bunch of people in the bar and most are laughing and talking, having a good time drinking.

  "We need to get that looked at" Namato said.

  "I'm fine, we need to lay low until we can figure out who is coming after us" said khatar as the door to the bar opened. Leofric entered the bar. He starts looking around and everyone else in the bar gets quiet. He then sees Khatar and Namato. He starts approaching them.

  "Oh, great not them" Khatar says as he starts tensing up. Namato gets worried he has never seen Khatar tense up before. He starts thinking that this guy must be real trouble. Then Namato stands up and right as soon as Leofric gets to the table Namato smashes a bottle over his head.

  "Come on Khatar, we can take him" Namato says as everyone in the bar is too stunned to speak or move. Khatar then just sighs.

  "That was fun, now let me try it on you" Leofric says while grabbing another bottle and smashing it on Namato's head. Leofric starts laughing hysterically. Namato starts looking mad.

  "Why are you here?" Khatar asks.

  "Well I came to see one of my best friends, also is the Namato you talk about so much? He is funny"Namato looks shocked.

  "Khatar, who the hell is this?" Namato says while trying to puff out his chest and standing on his tippy toes to look taller than Leofric.

  "Calm down, he is one of the four horsemen, they are some of the strongest knights in the world, but I'm stronger" Leofric starts laughing at what Khatar just said.

  "That may be true if you fought one of us, but that's a different story if you fought all four of us"

  "Yeah but I can help Khatar, come on let's fight them" Namato said while looking super energetic, but just didn't like that he called Khatar one of his best friends. Khatar just looked at him for a second and then turned away.

  The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

  "Anyways, don't listen to him, why are you here?" Khatar asked Leofric. Namato just sat down annoyed.

  "We came out here to see what all the commotion was about"

  "Oh great, all four of you are here? I can't stand even one of you" Khatar said.

  "Yeah they are waiting outside, you know them, they can get a little rough sometimes, but we are here because we have reports coming in of a small army approaching your little kingdom, and we heard that you were here with Namato the thief"

  "I am no thief" Namato said angrily.

  "Don't worry, we know, especially someone who is so close to Khatar, he wouldn't let that happen on his watch"

  "If there is an army headed to Bulltaureau we must hurry, without us a lot of people could get hurt"

  "No we can't let you go, that's what they want"

  "Sounds like you already know who is attacking" Namato said

  "We do, but we also know they have someway of nullifying magic, we think it's to deal with you Khatar"

  "Nullify magic? The only person that could've done that was Merlin the great wizard, but he is long dead"

  "Yes we believe it was-" Leofric said before coughing mid sentence. He held his hand up to his mouth. But as he looked down at it he coughed up a little bit of blood. He picked up a napkin off the table and wiped it on it. Then hid it in his hand. Khatar and Namato didn't notice the blood as they were too stunned at the nullifying magic part.

  "We still need to go with all of our strengths combined we could easily wipe out any army" Khatar said.

  "I told you we can't go, that's not our orders right now, we are told to bring you back to our kingdom until we have figured out a way to get rid of there nullification"

  "No we are going right now, try and stop me"

  "And also me cause I'm here too" Namato said also trying to seem like he is on anybody else's level.

  "You know I can't stop you, but please if it gets too bad, run away"

  "I can't promise that"Khatar said opening a mirror to the entrance of the kingdom. Both him and Namato enter, then the mirror closes.

  "Ugh he doesn't know when to quit" Leofric said as the door to the bar slammed open. The other three horsemen enter.

  "Leofric hurry up, I am so bored!!!!!!" Ivo yelled.

  "Yes I need to go back to be there for my wife when she gives birth" Friedrich said.

  "I also have to go home to tend to porky" Vincent said excitedly. "also why is everyone in here looking like mannequins?" Everyone else in the room has not moved one inch since Leofric entered the room. But now since all of them have came in they are all sweating from fear.

  "Lets just go home, Khatar and Namato will find us if they need any help"

  "Oh yeah, totally forgot we were here for them, anyways let's get going on the road, hopefully find some goblin raiders to beat up" Ivo said excitedly thinking of a battle.
