《The Town Of Fairview》Chapter 5 - Crypts And Good Boys
Advertisement
Mr.Li from the comfort of his foldable liter chair is constantly shouting orders at Bart and Terrance on their way to the tomb with Emily and Sunny leading them through the forest. Sunny still giggling from Mr.Li’s chair and his throne bearers says.
“Although I find your chair hilarious Mr.Li judging from our situation you should probably put it away now.”
Emily perks up and says
“I concur with Sunny we have no idea if more draugrs are around here we should be carefull.”
Terrance looks back at bart and says
“What the fuck does “concur” mean?”
Bart sighs and looks up at Mr.Li and says
“I agree with them Mr.Li we are a huge target with this throne we should put it away now.”
Mr.Li strokes his beard and says
“You make a fair point… Ok boys fold it up AND DON'T YOU DAMAGE IT!!!”
Bart and Terrance fold up the liter throne and store it in Mr.Li’s box, Emily asks
“How does fit in that box it makes no sense?”
Bart answers and says
“It’s a bottomless box that Mr.Li picked up a few years back.”
Emily smiles and says
“Wow, that's so cool! Can I look inside?”
Bart smiles and says
“That's not a good idea Mr.Li keeps a lot of stuff in here that are not for the pure of heart.”
Emily looks up at Bart for a second before Terrance says
“That’s a nice way of saying that Mr.Li has a ridiculous amount of porn stashed in that box among other vile objects hahaha.”
Emily backs away from the box with an unsure look on her face before Bart jabs Terrance in the stomach, Mr.Li says
“You done Bug boy? Lead the way into the tomb.”

Terrance rubbing his belly morphs into his beetle form and enters the tomb Mr.Li looks at Bart and says
“Stay at the rear make sure nothing surprises us from behind and you two lovely ladies just direct the buffoon he gets lost easily.”
Sunny chuckles and with a thumb up says
“Gotcha!”
After entering the tomb the group enters a huge room full of sarcophagi decorated with silver and one sarcophagus decorated with gold. Terrance enters first and stops the group to look around Mr.Li steps around Terrance and says.
“These coffins are rather large for a human.”
Terrance says
“They're not for humans they are for draugr like the one we killed the last night.”
Sunny peering over Mr.Li’s shoulder points at the other end of the room and whispers
“Look is that an arm?
Behind a empty coffin on the other side of the room was a green hand Mr.Li motions for Terrance to check the sarcophagus. Terrance cautiously moves to the sarcophagus tenses up and says.
“It's not just and arm. Its three bodies one goblin an ogre and a draugr, looks like Wortbum sent some men before you two.”
Terrance scans the room and says.
“I see seven coffins four are open and three are sealed we killed one draugr and there is another one dead here that means two draugr are still up Bart you and I need to smash the other three coffins now before they wake up.”
Bart walks to Terrance and says.
“They are sarcophagi, not coffins.”
As Terrance places himself in between two of the sarcophagi Bart is at the foot of the last one Bart says
“On three one… two…”
Bart leaps into the air conjuring a hammer as Bart is in the air Terrance raises both his arms in unison Terrance slams his fists into each sarcophagus beside him and Bart slams his hammer straight through the last one killing three draugr instantly. Terrance rubs his hands together and Bart pulls himself out of the rubble. Sunny and Emily are staring awestruck as they killed three of the very creature that forced them to run. Bart looks at Terrance and says.

“I'll search the rest of the tomb you guys hold up here I'll take care of the la-”
Crashing through the wall closest to Bart a draugr grabs him and throws him through the hole it made and charged Terrance. Bart getting up gets charged and slammed into a wall by the last draugr Bart conjures and hammer in his right hand and begins savagely beating the draugrs head until it let him go, Bart slams the hammer into the draugrs chest and sends it flying back through the hole he was tossed through, as Bart walks inside he sees Terrance ripping the limbs off of his draugr, Bart raises his hammer above his head and just before he slams it down the draugr raises a hand up and speaks in a dark deep voice.
“WAIT!”
Bart swings his hammer down but manages to redirect it to the side of the draugrs face, Bart looks up at Mr.Li confused, Mr.Li walks over behind Bart and says.
“A draugr that speaks that is rare this tomb must be of great importance if a guardian such as yourself is here, speak.”
The draugr rubbing its chest says
“It was our responsibility to protect this tomb and we failed… I need to inform you of what is sealed away.”
The draugr with one of its other hands points to a open sarcophagus Mr.Li walks over and looks inside and sees a stone slab with a message carved into it, the draugr says
“Read it that is all I ask... I will return to valhalla…”
With that the draugr dies to its injuries, Sunny jumps up and wraps her hands around Terrance’s neck while screaming.
“THAT WAS AWESOME!”
Emily walks over to Bart and puts her hand on his shoulder and with a worried look asks.
“Are you ok?”
Bart looks down at her and says
“Im ok just a little dazed being slammed against a wall messed with my head a little bit.”
Emily grabs onto Barts arm and says
“Here come sit down for a bit let me look at you.”
While Bart and Terrance are resting Mr.Li literally skims the message on the tablet then hands it to Bart and says
“Store this in the box please let's get the last sarcophagus open.”
Bart stores the tablet and says.
“What did it say?”
Mr.Li while stroking his beard says.
“Oh, something about protecting my grandson this and Ragnarok that.. And something about balls and long walks nothing important.
Terrance with sunny still clinging to his neck says.
“How is none of that important old man? Did you seriously SKIM over the tablet?”
Mr.Li says
“Get up boy and open it already Emily dear please give him the key.”
Terrance takes the key and moves to the golden sarcophagus and looks back and says.
“Everyone stand back… On three… one two-”
Terrance turns the key and the lid clicks, Terrance slides the lid off then looks inside and steps back and gasps. Bart conjures two hammers and crouches and says.
“You good Terrance?”
Terrance looks back at the group then back at the sarcophagus turns human then eagerly reaches inside. Terrance turns around with a huge smile on his face and screams.
“IT'S A PUPPER!!!!”

The Gatekeeper
Quick Synopsis:This is the story of Reylor, a god-like existence who lost a great portion of his strength when accidentally sent from his “home” to another world. Making friends and learning to harness to power of magic, he maintains his commitment to his prior duty and proceeds to fight against corruption, both on a political front and against what is known as the shade.(Note, this story focuses on action and adventure, so politics are not in depth) This has been my first novel, which was primarilly inteded as a learning experience, and so it may be a bit rough in regards, but it should definitely be readable and it is a full story. I may make some adjustments to it later on, but there's no guarantee... anyhow, it's free to read, so give it a go! Also, feel free to check out my new website: aretornovels.wordpress.com
