《Ignore this》Infiltration
Advertisement
My training has paid off immensely, I can lift a small boulder with ease. I tried to uproot a tree with my bare arms, it almost moved but I gave up. I made a backpack out of leather that we had and made and put as many heavy things in it as possible. Now I run with that and rocks in my arms. I still need to be stronger, but I feel confident I can quietly infiltrate the village and get out. I stunk up on a Gorka Toad which is known for having crazy good detection skills, I think I can get in.
As I got closer to the village, I noticed something terrible, we haven’t checked back in a few days and I see they now have people in chains. They’ll be used as slaves, I must hurry before they’re worked to death. The best place to sneak in is on the forest edge and to jump over the wall. After looking it over for a bit, it's also the least guarded.
I crept around the stone walls, I only had one shot or I would die. Our uncle’s smithy is our best bet for supplies, I know where he keeps his valuables. It was just sunset as I began to jump the wall. The guard who was stationed here was rotating out for a new one, this is the only time they do this. I must succeed, I focused purely on getting to the smithy, I snuck up on one of them and broke Its neck. I was next to the smithy, unnoticed.
Beasts like these don’t know how to use this so it should be mostly untouched, besides the weapons, those are probably mostly gone. Inside the smithy was mostly intact, I opened up the floorboards and found the safe, half of the things we needed, next was the enchanted anvil. This was the major issue. It was huge and heavy, using all my strength I lifted it off of its fixed position, the wood it was fixed to snapping and making a loud sound. Bad.

I stuffed as many things as I could into the backpack as well, ingots, knives, hatchets, and all sorts of other things. Time was only slightly on my side, the new guard would be there soon. I put on a set of brigandine armor that Uncle had been making for me because I wanted to learn to fight along with a small shield I fitted on my arm. This would help me a ton in the upcoming revenge project. The sun set as I left the smithy.
I must escape now, especially with this safe. Despite the sheer weight and discomfort of the things I carried, I ran like I never did before. There was no way I could jump over the wall, but I wasn’t going to jump. I knew by now the new guard must be in position, so I did the only thing I could and planned to bust through the stone wall, it wasn’t too thick, and I could heal myself.
As I got to the wall, I heard the guard shout, I looked at him dead in the eyes, I did not stop running. I could not slow down, The momentum of the heavy things I had on me carried me into its body. I couldn't position the shield right but I could hear its bones breaking as I smashed it against the wall. The wall crumbled behind me, everything hurt but I did not stop. I ran, I ran as hard and as fast as I could. I was out with only minor injuries, and going back home with valuable things we needed.

8 160Witchbone: The Goblins Winter
Themes found in these stories include friendship, found family, defying negative expectations, trying to figure out how to be a force for good in your corner of the world, doing heroic things even if you don't look or feel like a hero, and that being different isn't necessarily fatal. Summary: A spell of arctic weather. A mysterious death. The reading of a will. Strange tracks in the snow. Eleven-year-old Danny Hallow accepts his life, such as it is. His father is dead, his mother left years ago. His three Keepers are the only people aware of Danny's erratic and not-very-impressive psychic abilities. He has no friends, he's been suspended from school, and he's responsible for the life of a small brown bat that's ended up in his care. When Danny's estranged Uncle Enoch dies under mysterious circumstances, he and his Keepers are called to the town of Eddystone, New Hampshire for the reading of the man's will. Traveling four hundred miles from his dreaded hometown to attend, Danny is happy to get away, possibly inherit something interesting- and maybe find out more about his family while he's there. Arriving at the crumbling family estate of Gnomewood Home, he finds it to be hauntingly familiar, a bit creepy, oddly comforting, and possibly alive. When his uncle's will reveals that he's inherited Gnomewood and everything in it, he's determined to stay and make a happier life for himself in Eddystone, somehow. But at Gnomewood, he finds more questions than answers to his family's secrets. Disturbing old memories come to him in dreams. His psychic abilities begin to grow stronger, and as a result he becomes aware that a horde of cryptic creatures are plaguing the town of Eddystone, seemingly drawn out by the spell of an unusually frigid February. Toothy little goblins that are sneaky, vicious, and hungry. Goblins that take a particular interest in Danny. Will the emergence of the alien, and potentially dangerous, power he's inherited from his peculiar family tree help Danny survive the goblin infested winter, inadvisable attempts to befriend a terrifying boy with silver eyes, and a new school? Only if he learns to control them before they put him and everyone around him in danger. Before they convince some people that he should never have been allowed to exist at all. Before he becomes just another twisted tale in his family's bizarre history, kept hidden for centuries within the ivy-covered walls of Gnomewood Home.
