Bill climbed the steps leading from the dungeon as he headed to the execution grand. Damn it ! He knew that they were famous for being stubborn but he did n't imagine that they were going to be this stubborn ! Steeling himself up pecker came up and out into the light. Ahead he could hear the three Male cursing and struggling to get free.

'' As I advised Roth, I do not cause the time to pander to pleading traitors. I am trying to reconstruct the immense and powerful kingdom my menage helped to make. I have no fourth dimension for the likes of you ! This is the only luck you will have. help oneself the realm or die ! I am not my Father so I will proffer you this. '' Bill waited a few instant then whirled `` Bah ! '' Turning to a hooded soma he said, `` Make it slow so they suffer ! ``

As he walked away he heard all three of the men yell. `` If you are truly the king chosen then you can sympathise why we refuse ! ''

neb walked back getting in all three of their faces. `` I understand a disservice was done to all three of you. As I said I have n't the time to wait for you three to make up your head ! Right here, right now, yes or no ? If I walk away again you die, the dishonour will strain all of your families as I strip them of everything ! Now then, your reply ? ''

'' Release us and we will swear fidelity to you ! '' The erstwhile of them said.

'' I am not a Loretta Young, stupid kit. Bah ! Here I thought you were great swordsmen that would enjoy a true challenge. bye worthless unity your kin will be dispossessed soon ! '' throwaway said as he turned to go.

'' time lag ! '' The same older man said. `` If you are truly doing as you say you are. Tell us what our genuine names are. I know that Rex Tomco only told his younger son. If you can honor us with them, '' here the others nodded to him. `` Then there will be no further fuss with us. ''

Bill nodded as he racked his brainiac to call back the names his father had told him when he was so young. Suddenly a thin smile crossed his lips as he leaned to each of the swordsman whispering to each. As he moved from each the male would nod to the others and Roth. Finished flyer moved to stand in social movement of them.

'' Sire. '' All three of them said as they tried to kneel in forepart of him. Roth also knelt next to them as each of them stated. `` I am a citizen of the realm I pledge my lifespan and my sword to the honor of the realm ! To protect the king and the land ! ``

Taking a deep breath Bill nodded, though he was still pissed off with all the delays, at least he had them now. Narrowing his eye as he looked at all three of them he just hoped that they did n't bolt at this future part. Pulling his Father-God 's sword that he 'd strapped on before he made for the prison, he stepped to all four of the fencer kneeling.

'' I desire all four of you in a far more reaching capacity than you think. '' Bill said as he moved before the first of them. Touching the blade to each shoulder measure stated. `` Arise Sir Gregor, get-go horse of the kingdom. '' Moving to the second he repeated the same motion. `` Arise Sir Gwayne, First Knight of the realm. ''

Both of the first two male were in shock almost unable to displace, as of yet ineffectual to speak.

Bill moved to the third whose rima oris was hanging open as were the commencement two. Tapping the third male on the shoulders flyer stated, `` Arise Sir Thomas First knight of the realm. '' Even as Thomas was nodding in shock flyer finally stopped in front of Roth. Tapping his shoulders eyeshade told him, `` Arise Sir Roth, first base Knight of the land, and General to the land 's regular army. ''

Roth had been waiting for this as he was the only former one besides Federal Reserve note that knew that it was going to take place. Roth bowed to Bill as he said, `` As get-go knight of the Realm I will protect the king, the land, and the realm with my living. I will carry on all Laws giving aid whenever possible. My Liege, I swear my fidelity unto you. ''

One by one each of the swordsmen followed Roth 's example. Bill nodded as they all stood. `` As Knights of the realm we must have all of you dressed as is your place. '' Sighing Bill shook his head. `` At present tense there is n't much for you but soon there will be. I am hoping that all of you are capable to train many to protect the realm. ''

'' Yes sire, we will start as soon as possible. '' Roth replied. `` Though forefather, with the horse 's by your side should n't you go through with the investiture ? ''

Bill could only sigh, everyone was so tidal bore to make him a moving target ! `` I will take that into consideration. At represent things are safer now at least in the castle, or they will be after a few days. '' When Roth and the others looked a little unconnected vizor explained. `` It was found that the palace was a oasis for a multitude of listening device. ''

'' Ah ! That was why I saw all those techs going in a patch ago. '' Roth said.

'' Yes, '' Turning to the other three notice stated. `` As you can see I have my don 's temper, not as bad but I do feature it. I will not suffer betrayal as quite a few have found out. For now you four will be my guard, at least 'til you can provide better. Though I think my mates might hold something to say about that. ''

All four of the males nodded in agreement their eyes wide a bit when both Twitty and Glenna appeared carrying swords. `` mate ? '' Glenna asked. `` Who are the ancient swordsman ? '' When all four bristled Bill held up a hand.

'' These three along with Roth are First knight of the Realm. I suggest you address them as such. '' placard told a now smirking Glenna and Twitty.

'' As your mates and Queen elect we feel that they should be tested. '' Twitty hissed as she drew her sword.

Bill rolled his eyes when Twitty attacked with blazing speed being easily repelled. Shifting she moved faster as she went in again, this meter she had to fudge a myriad of swing music that Gregor was taking.

Separating Twitty nodded as she put away her sword. `` You are well trained in the old mode of sword play. It was an accolade to see your skill. '' Gregor said.

Even as Twitty was sheathing her sword, Glenna was drawing hers attacking Gwayne. Smiling he parried every thrust, crusade and swing she threw at him. Smiling herself Glenna suddenly increased her speed. Finally a specton later they separated.

Gwayne bowed to her, `` Such skill in one as young as you is admirable ! Your teacher taught you well. ''

Glenna nodded as she suddenly whirled and hissed as she went after Dylan Marlais Thomas. `` 'bout metre, '' He said with a smiling. Deflecting everything Glenna threw at him. Finally satisfied she and Twitty nodded.

'' They are more than satisfactory married person. '' Both of them told note.

A huge smile on his brass, notice nodded as all four of the males fell in behind Bill and his checkmate.

'' I know that all of you have family unit now. I wish for all of them to be moved here. I feel that after it is made known that you four are first knight, the danger to them will increase. '' Bill told all of them.

'' I was thinking along the same short letter sir. Though I think it would be more prudent for them to be in homes inside the walls. '' Roth relayed a here and now later.

government note and the entourage with him stopped as broadside pondered this. `` I think I see your point Roth. Better protective covering without others thinking they are privileged. It would also make getting to them far easier than if they were in the palace. I like this estimation. '' Turning to the other three invoice asked. `` What say you three ? Would your class care to live on within the bulwark ? ''

Gregor turned to look at the other two, and then went into deep conversation with them. Finally six spectons later Gregor turned back to Bill. `` Sir, I know that my teammate would hump the fortune to live by the castle though I
still have to break off this to her. Gwayne also thinks that his checkmate would love the chance to live here. '' Stopping Gregor turned toward Dylan Marlais Thomas and motioned him forward.

Nodding toward Gregor, Thomas stepped forward. `` sire I am unsure as my mate and I are raising some of our grandchildren. My oldest son and his mate were killed in an accident. I know that this would be a great take experience for them. I am just worried that the danger might be prejudicial to them. ''

Bill was nodding at everything Thomas was saying. It was a valid decimal point but he needed all four of them if this was going to mould. `` Perhaps if I spoke to all of your mates ? '' account suggested.

All four of Bill 's knights showed impact then very wide-eyed smile spread across their faces. Philip Roth was actually laughing ! `` I think I would love to see this ! ''

looking at at Roth with a backside looking Bill told him, `` I really do n't see what the blaze is so funny Roth ! ''

'' Sir, you do n't realize that all four of us have strong mates. I 'd defy say that they are as solid as yours. '' Roth said after he 'd stopped chuckling.

pecker 's eye went across-the-board as he threw up his arms in defeat. What in the hell did he get to do for thing to go his way just once ! Just who else was he going to have got to execute to get back on track ! Sighing a moment bank note looked at both his better half who had huge grins on their faces. `` Perhaps I should take my better half ; they might be capable to convince them. ''

Philip Roth typeface suddenly showed blow as he slowly nodded. `` They just might, though I think you will require a tinker's damn thoroughly grammatical case. The advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. Maybe if you go about it that way they might. Again, I am diffident they are very set in their room now. ''

Both of broadside 's mates had shocked flavour on their faces. `` You want us to convince them ? '' Glenna started. `` Maybe if you let me go in fully armed then perhaps. ''

'' I know all four of these females, I also suggest going in fully armed. '' Twitty told Bill.

Bill 's middle went wide, just who in the snake pit were these females ? Did he accept to send an arm whole of soldiers when his match went to babble to them ? card looked at all four males a moment looking to see if they had collars or break one's back bands. The way his mates and the males described their mates these female were extremely dominate.

Roth and the others looked at Bill a moment seeing his reassessing of them. With a smile Philip Roth spoke up to explain. `` Sir, when we took checkmate so long ago while we served your founding father, they were n't this way. With the increasing danger that we and later they started to face we were able to win over your Church Father to train them. Rather we trained them, as far as we dared. vertebral column then had it been known that females were close to our acquisition, and many would have tried to bolt down them. ''

card was nodding, he 'd known that his Padre had many chemical group melodic theme but this was a first for him. Then, it could have gotten his beginner killed, now ? It was n't really all that much to see highly trained females. He looked at his own mates wondering just how far they had advanced after all. If they thought they had to go in fully armed what did this say about the swordsmen 's couple ?

'' Alright, I will countenance you both to go in fully armed, though I want a vauntingly detachment to go with you. '' posting told both of his mates.

'' Uh, '' Twitty started. `` That might not be too wise checkmate. ''

'' I am in agreement, '' Glenna agreed. `` It would be a waste material of scout group that might be needed elsewhere. ''

Again Bill 's eyes registered jounce, just who in the hell were these females ?

'' I tend to agree, '' Roth told him. `` They are far better trained than any of the soldiery at introduce. ''

greenback could only shake his oral sex in mental rejection. `` Am I asking the amiss four to be first horse ? '' peak half jokingly asked.

All four of the fencer bristled 'til they saw the smile that was creeping onto card 's face.

'' Who do you think will be the easiest to convince ? '' Bill asked of the six Male and females there.

All of them went into discussion for a few spectons then Roth turned to Federal Reserve note. `` I think that my fellow would be the easiest to convince, though the tough to fight. ``

The others nodded in understanding, `` I think my mate might be the gruelling to convince though she can still be punk to defeat. '' Stated Thomas.

'' Alright, let 's start with Philip Milton Roth 's mate and end with Thomas 's. I 'll be there in case.. '' Bill started.

'' No mate, it would be advisable if you waited 'til we secured their promise. You are not as well train as we are yet. Though I have a feeling that it wo n't be long before you move past us. '' Twitty replied.

posting nodded hiding his surprise that Twitty had guessed that he wanted to train further.

Roth scratched his chin as he twitched his whiskers, it would be a good thing if the Billie Jean King elect were further trained. The simple fact that he was already lightning fast would make his breeding far easier.


It was half a toton later that all seven of them were standing outside of Roth 's domicile.

'' I 'll go in with your mates to try and soften the newsworthiness though I am afraid that we may be here for a clock time. '' Philip Roth told Bill as Twitty, Glenna, and Roth made their way inside. It was quiet for a few spectons then there was shouting coming from the spinal column of the home. A instant later Roth came flying through the room access landing place at a hatful at throwaway 's back paw.

'' I take it things are n't going that fountainhead ? '' eyeshade asked.

'' Actually not too bad. Usually she 'd put me across the street, past the succeeding row of family. Be back, '' Roth said as he picked his self up and reentered his dwelling.

Suddenly there was a clanging of sword then grunts as the sound of a sword fight started. `` I do n't manage who he is ! '' They all heard a female scream. `` This is my dwelling house ! I will not give it up ! '' Again there was the strait of sword play then Philip Milton Roth was again flying backward out the door. This sentence he went a whole lot further going far retiring neb and the others almost out of sight.

'' Ah that brings back memories ! '' Gregor stated as he watched Roth pee-pee his way back. Suddenly there was the sound of ferocious growling and hissing as the rapid sound of swords clanging could be heard.

Bill could only throw off his drumhead as they all had suddenly fought their way to the door. shucks ! peak thought as he watched the former female retain up with both Twitty and Glenna. visor was starting to remember that the female person would never soften when she suddenly stopped staring at him.

kneel at his paws she purred saying, `` I am corrected, If my better half thought you the king then I will no longer fight. Though I do care to keep this dwelling house. '' Looking back at Glenna and Twitty she asked, `` your mates ? ''

Bill looked at the older female person and motioned for her to climb up, `` yes they are, spouse of Roth. This will always be your nursing home no topic what. Stepping stuffy Bill told her, `` I will produce sure of that. ''

Nodding, the female bowed to Bill, then his first mate. `` You both are well trained. Most fitting for the King elect. ''

Smiling slyly at Philip Roth she went in and started to take. Shaking his head Bill thought, ‘ damn this is going to be a hanker day indeed.'Almost the identical incident was repeated at both Gregor and Gwayne 's base, after the sly smile from their mates the males were a little in shock. All three of the male person were surprised that their teammate had n't gone longer though they were gladiolus that they were on board, now came the real challenge.

As soon as they approached Thomas 's nursing home they all knew that they were going to be in for a real fight. Thomas 's mate had already heard of what was going on, she had the front barricaded. `` I refuse to give up the house we raised our kit in Seth Thomas ! '' They heard her cry out. `` I will fight to the death to keep it ! ''

Bill stepped forward yelling back, `` No one is taking your home ! It will ... ''

'' I know not who you are but what you spout is Lie ! The others may have been fooled but I am no naïve feline queen ! Go peddle your lie to others I want my hubby with me, not gone all the time ! '' Thomas 's mate yelled.

Sighing visor could only shake his head he was about to flex and release Norman Thomas when the male stepped up. `` Mileen ! Damn it ! I am a first knight now ! I can not deny my duty to the Billie Jean Moffitt King elect ! ''

'' King elect ? That Noel Coward is still on earth ! We have no king now all is ... '' Mileen shouted.

'' BE quiet mate ! The king elect is here ! Do not utter so I still wish to have you as a mate and not a store ! Such talk is lese majesty ! '' Thomas hissed back.

There was a commotion at the front end door then the barricade was exploding outward. A truly angry looking Lynx clan female was standing in the broken threshold. Growling and hissing she quickly advanced upon the group in front. Drawing her sword she swung at invoice only to stimulate it blocked by the two swords of Glenna and Twitty.

'' You will not harm our mate ! You will have to obliterate the both of us first ! '' Both Twitty and Glenna were growling out as they viciously attacked a now surprise Mileen. With a ferocity that surprised all lay out Mileen began to press forward only to be stopped and tug back. It was a good half toton later that Mileen found that she was starting to lose ground.

Finally pressed into a nook Mileen lashed out catching Twitty on her left arm. Dropping back Twitty cursed that she 'd been that careless. Even as Mileen smiled feeling that she finally had an vantage everyone but throwaway stopped and bowed. Mileen looked over when everything seemed to arrest.

'' I was wondering if this was a private affair or can any join ? '' Came a female voice from behind beak.

'' This is a private affair unless you are family. '' An umbrageous Mileen hissed at the newcomer. Then her mouth dropped agape when she realized that the fledgeling was Queen Niaco !

Niaco drew her own sword as she advanced upon Mileen. `` salutary, it has been far too tenacious since I have had a dear fight ! That was my sister wife that you just cut. I therefore consider it to be my line ! ``

Niaco swung with a wildness and strength that no one really expected. Mileen started to care she had n't seen a female this good in a retentive time ! Finally backed into a street corner again Mileen conceded, bowing to Niaco.

'' I think it is my husband you should bow to, Mileen. '' Niaco told the female.

Nodding Mileen turned toward Bill her eyes opening extensive when she recognized him. `` Ambrose ? '' She whispered, as she could only stare at him .
