《Knights quest》The Swamp

Advertisement

Two days had passed since the battle at Crow's territory.

"What's taking them so long? With their pacing it should've only took them about a day too reach me,*Yawns*." Legion reckon,

Far east within Deep Swamp territory laid legion. He had been resting under a tree for days while he waited on the pack too show up.

Keeping his company laying beside him was his Dragon's fang long blade and leaning upon the tree was his great cleaver.

The Deep Swamp, a vast territory that covers the far east. Within it lies several creatures, all capable of ending one's life if there were too be caught lacking.

Yet legion couldn't be bother, the presence he emitting alone while sleeping was enough to cause even the most savage Swamp beast too hesitate.

"Yawwwwnnn....odd?, could've sworn I felt....mmmm sooo that's why no one has bothered too come check on me." Legion said too himself.

Some ways off from legion's locations was Mumbabe. After the incident with Chu'mana and Vasuki, Dan-da had rushed him back to the village where he rested for some time.

Though his injuries where severe, they had healed quite quickly since Chu'mana still found him favorable.

Still, because he chose to relinquish his title as Guardian of the Purple Haze which is the same as rejecting Chu'mana, Mumbabe was exile from the clan and spent a day and some traveling towards the Deep Swamp.

"I've been inside the Deep Swamp for some * exhales* time now and still haven't been Intercepted by the Guardian...I hope that smiling idiot isn't off slacking." Mumbabe thought while traversing through muddy waters.

"Its still odd I'm this far in * Inhales* and yet I haven't felt the presence of any Swampers usually they're patrolling the area. *exhales* What!!!.....no no no, Hell is going on here??"

Mumbabe said with a dreadful look upon his face as he came upon a solid path with lead him further in.

Mumbabe was now making hast as he traveled along the path, making certain he didn't disturb any of the sleeping Swamp beast. Upon descending further into Swamp territory he had enter into the first layer of the Swamp's defense.

"Craaaaaappp...I completely forgot about the Swamp's natural defenses",

Before him floating in the air was a ball of light, with a grimson smile or that was what it had seem too be but before Mumbabe could react the ball of light rushed into a nearby swamp tree. In second the seemingly mindless tree became active.

"A Swamp spirit? He had told me of them, but never that they were capable of possessions. WOOOOAA!!" Shouted out Mumbabe in shock, ducking from the sudden assault.

'Agggghhh....*exhales* it's using the vines as whips by channeling the surrounding flow in the area into it. *inhales* that idiot told me these creatures were peaceful." Mumbabe thought, with vollies upon vollies the Swamp spirit savagely slashed and thrust the vines Mumbabe.

With a few minutes into the brawl, Mumbabe sudden notice the appearance of several more spirit, some went into the Swamp and use the water and others took too the ground.

"A bunches of spirits actually managed to corner me this fast?...* Inhales*. I've really gotting old." Mumbabe stated,

They launched flurries from every angle placing immense stress on Mumbabe, the spirits in the Swamp water shot out projectile like water bullets.

The spirits in the ground constantly attempted too trap him by sinking where he stood or, have him constantly moving too avoiding the rapid emerging spikes that shout up from below.

TUTUTTUTUTUUTTTUMMM!!!! Fired the water spirits chasing Mumbabe towards the trees, SWOOSH!!!

"Shit!' Mumbabe shouted as he barely avoided the sudden slash. Not giving him a moment to rest the ground spirits quickly attempted too peirce him, having several spikes explode from beneath.

Following up with them was the Swamp water spirits, using the water as a whip and lashing out towards him violently. Giving him little space too escape.

"I'm actually having a difficult time against spirits..... no choice now." Mumbabe said as he then engulfed the area In a highly toxic gas.

This sudden outburst cause the spirits too flee, though they are just spirits and can't be harmed physically, because they are made of flow.

Mumbabe toxic gas has the ability to contaminate even flow. Which inter could kill even the Swamp spirits,

"Grrrrrrrrhh......ok. that's enough, won't want to cause conflict between the Fog and Swamp Clans", Mumbabe said as the holes on his body began to sucking in the massive toxic clouds.

With the toxic cloud gone along with the spirits, Mumbabe was finally able to take a break. Quickly he dropped to his knees, then fell felt on his back spreading himself out.

"Aaaaahhh. Finally some peace,....he's gonna be pissed about what happen here, I've drain this area of the Swamp so dry that it's look like a baron waste line......wait. the hell I'm doing?, I've gotta get too the center of the Swamp.*exhales* Its far too early for him too be waking." Mumbabe ramble on too himself,

Running hastily without a care only focusing on making it to the center, Mumbabe tripped.

Hitting the ground with such momentum cause him to roll and crash into a nearby nest,

Watching this all take place was one of the Swamp spirits who was still very much salty about earlier. With Mumbabe slightly distracted, the spirit quickly possessed a vine tree and used its vines to wrap around the unaware Mumbabe's foot.

"Today's just not my day...What's that weird sensation?" Mumbabe thought as he looked back too see his foot completely wrapped in vines.

Swiftly without warning the Swamp spirit whipped him up into the air and flung him towards the east of the Swamp.

"Grrrrrrr...." groaned out Mumbabe as his body hurdle through the Swamp, crashing through several trees before coming too sudden stop by plunging into a nearby Swamp bed.

SPLASH!!!!........"arrrrrggghhh!!!!!",

Bursting forth from beneath the Swamp bed Coughing vigorously was a soak an extremely aggravated Mumbabe. Drench and cloaked in moss, thoughts of spirit genocide filled his head.

"If I didn't care about the well-being of the fog clan,*Inhales* I would've already gone on a killing spree." Mumbabe said too himself running his hands through his head wringing it out of water,

While pouting about his now soak clothing he felt a familiar presence.

"Noo." He said in disbelief as he hurried off the investigate.

"My great toxic goddess. *Exhales* this idiot is actually sleeping outside of Suits territory, and he doesn't Event have his squad with him." Mumbabe felt an uncontrollable joy after finding a lonely legion just out sleeping.

Though he hesitate too make any sudden actions, legion's wasn't just anyone to attempt an assassination on. Plus he wasn't stupid either, though you couldn't be any stupider if you chose too sleep within any part of the south, but legion was clever.

"Mmmmmm.. Clever bastard, I nearly miss the tree he's under. A bloody scream tree, another one of the Swamp's defenses. How did he even managed too get under it? It reacts to malice intent, and he's the very incarnation of malice." Mumbabe thought to himself, raging at the fact that the Swamp seemed to be treating legion better than him.

Pondering the situation Mumbabe had decided it would be best too leave legion and continue forward towards the Swamp clan.

This was just a thought as Mumbabe had already began moving towards legion, creeping on his stomach stalking like a snake slowly inching closer.

Humming cheerfully a tune, Mumbabe drew closer. His cheerful humming kept his malice thoughts at bay, with no hateful or killing intent on his mind the scream tree stayed silent.

"Mmmm....that smiling bastard was right. Just by having positive thoughts, really does render the scream tree useless. *Inhales* interesting...what could legion possibly be thinking that's so positive? Could he also be thinking about......*exhales*.... no. I highly doubt that." Mumbabe ramble on to himself as he was now directly in front of legion.

Inside legion mind.

'Mmmmm cute rabbits,...wait someone's touching me. Who'll dare risk something like that? The Guardian? No, that idiot busy at the moment. Mmmm guess I'll take a look", legion decided.

Slightly opening one of his eyes, he caught an unpleasant view. Before him in a squatting position was Mumbabe, with both his hands around legion's neck.

"This foggy ass toxic cynical shit. Where the hell he even came from?..." legion thought to himself.

"What are you trying to do?" Legion asked in a very polite manner, locking eyes with Mumbabe with a confused expression.

Mumbabe paused, thoughts of a response rushed through his head but none seemed to quite fit the situation. He had both hand around legion's throat and was applying slight pressure trying to strangle him without any killing intent.

Still unable to answer with a suitable answer, Mumbabe just continue squeezing.

"Youuuu....., son of ah beach." Legion said while trying to also not alarm the scream tree,

"Shusssh....its just a massage." Mumbabe stated with a grin as he applied more pressure.

"........, you mask wearing, toxic breath, purple hair reptilian whore."

Were legion's initial thoughts. However,

"How nice of you too want to help release some of my stress", legion replied while resting his Dragon's fang upon Mumbabe's shoulder slightly pressing it against his neck.

*Both staring down the other*

"Bet."

"Bet."

"Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!" Bellowed the scream tree.

A day earlier

Moving through the forbidden forest using it as a short cut too by pass tribe lands, the pack raced hastily.

Still use this path was connected to one of the five clans of the Scavenger territory, and it's also is used as a hideout for members of the Prison Faction.

Glancing towards the left, something suspicious caught the attention of the head Fang.

* sniff sniff*

"Grrrrrrhhhh......Grey. take charge and carry on towards the Swamp", Head Fang order as he took a sharp turn toward the sent that caught his attention.

"Silva...", Grey called out in a worried tone as he too had smelled the sent of a strong presence.

Racing coming from the west, bolting through the blood maze was the assault unit of the Pack. Managing to avoid most of the hostile clans within the blood maze, However the head clan over the blood maze wasn't please with them running through his territory.

"Night!" Shouted the second fang, "we're being tailed and it would seem that they've sent out a couple Maze Walkers." Second Fang mentioned,

"Mmmmmm....Ash. carry on towards legion, I'll by use some time." Night stated as he suddenly turned around too rush the chasing forces.

Back inside of the Swamp territory

"Those scream trees are truly annoying brother." The figure said,

"Not as much as the two under it." Replied the other figure, both figures standing watch observing both legion and Mumbabe.
