Chapter 18: Ultimate Battle-Part 1

Act 1: The Mountains Sneak Attack!

Outside of Golden Crown Town; in the mountains, there is camp site, horses, armor, arrows, spears, swords, cannons, men, nurses, and messengers and etc. In one tent, Mytho, Miss Rue, Duck and Fakir are in it. "Mytho," Fakir is frustrated. "We've been out here for three days, so tell me. What's going on?"

Mytho sighed, "After Heaven was kidnapped," he begun. "Rue and I went out to find some clues to where they have gone to,"

"So far we didn't find anything, but except one." Miss Rue adds in,

"And that is...?" Duck asked,

"When we both met up at the Graveyard entrance," Mytho continued. "We couldn't find anything, but then something has caught my eye. I saw Nyroc's son there, standing in front of two grave stone. Before we go to him, he was heading towards the directions of south west, and disappeared."

"Before we looked at the direction that he disappeared to, we took pictures that holds white roses." Miss Rue showed them the pictures, all of the sudden. Fakir's eyes has grew widened, he saw Nyroc's grave.

Man, he thought. He's an old man...or bird alright... then he looks at the other grave, and it has supposed him. "I've believe that the widow here must be Nyroc's late wife and his sons' mother," Fakir suggested his theory.

"That's what we think so too," Mytho agreed. "But we don't know why,"

"Or even how is Nyroc dead," Miss Rue shrugged.

"Or it could be trap that he is leading us to a trap?"

"Huh?" Fakir's lost,

"Before we got there, he was heading to south-west...heading towards here to the mountains. That's how we both have got a theory that they are living in these mountains,"

"And where they are hiding our kids," Fakir see his theory.

"Precisely," Mytho looks at the map. "But we don't know where how to go for, but it is our best chance to attack them while we are rescuing them. Do you have any problems with that Fakir?"

"No," Fakir nodded.

"Okay," Mytho tries to think. "We better make a plan before we move out again," they are deciding how to do their rescue mission but they didn't realized that they are being watched.


At the Secret Kingdom of Crowsville, Nightwind has been sleeping for three days; none stop. Suddenly, a crow has come into the room and landed right next to him. "Kaw," it said. "Kaw, kaw, kaw,"

"Hmm..." he slowly opens his eyes, "What?"

"Kaw, kaw, kaw, ka-kaw,"

"What?" he sat up, "What did you say?"

"Kaw, kaw,"

"Oh shi-i-i-i-w-w-w-whoa," he lost his balance and fall off the bed, "Ow...why didn't you wake me up earlier?" he scrambled to his feet,

"Kaw, kaw,"

"Well yeah, she did say that I need some rest to be able to take control of the power. But I don't think that she really mean a hibernation," he puts his boots on, clean his face, ate his Raisin Bread, brush his hair and clean his teeth, put deodorant, and put his jacket on. Oh man, he thought. I'm so scrod! "I'd better go warn our master, and make sure that every patrol is guarding the perimeter."

"Kaw," it flapped its wings and flew out of the room. Then black dust has surrounded him and he has disappeared.

At Renesmee's room, Renesmee is fully dressed. But she gave Heaven the duck a whole wheat rolls to eat and she helps the prince to be fed. Suddenly, someone knocks at the door. "Enter," she called out as she put the bowl down. Nightwind has entered into the room, "Nightwind, this is very unpleasant surprise." Renesmee raised an eyebrow, "You should be in bed rest,"

"Yes I know," he answered. "I was being told by a crow before I..." all of the sudden, his vision has got blurry and started to lose his balance. He knelt down and took some deep breathes,

"You see," she stood up. "In order to maintain it, you must rest only a week before waking up. You'd just only sleep only half of the week, you must go back to your room and rest some more."

"I wish that I could but..."

"But what?"

"One of our crows has disturbed me from my sleep and gave some report to warn you about,"

"And that is...?"

"The princes' father...he's closing into our boarder,"

"What?" she roared, "Why didn't it tell me about it instead of waking you up and tell you about it?"

"Umm..."

"Don't answer that," Renesmee growled. Nightwind kept his mouth shut in return. "But how did he know where to find us?"

"I've probably might have been spotted when I was burying my father," Nightwind answered. "But I didn't pick up any scents since my sensitivity was going..."

"Haywire and soon shuts down to put you to sleep mode, yeah I know."

"I'm sorry,"

"No need," she turns around. "We need to force an attack battle, gather all of the apprentices and the warriors to meet together at the throne room. We have a meeting to attend,"

"Yes ma'am," he stood up slowly and went out of the room.


When she is alone with the prince and Heaven. Renesmee sighed and sat right next to prince, "I will be out for a while my prince," she spoke softly to him. "I won't be back 'till nightfall but make sure you rest and get better. I don't want to lose you...ever again," she look over her shoulder. "Heaven will keep you company," then she lean forward and kissed him. "I will get back as soon when we are done," she promised. She stood up and started to walk to Heaven in the cage, "Please make sure that you look after him while I'm gone,"

"I will," she replied.

"Thank you," then she head towards the door.

"...Renesmee..." the princes' voice whispered and she stopped to look over her shoulder. She saw the princes' eyes are slightly open, but she listen to what he is saying. "...be...be careful..." then Renesmee smiled.

"Don't worry, I will." She walked out of the door and closed it, then the prince has closed his eyes and fallen back to sleep. While Heaven is watching over him and she waits for Renesmee to return. If not...something in her duck gizzard is telling her that something is not going well as she hoped, so she waits and see what happens.


At the throne room, all of the Crow Soldiers, the Crows, and the Crow Apprentices and Crow Nurses are there while Renesmee is on the throne and Nightwind is kneeling beside her; facing the crowd. "Now," Renesmee began. "I know that you all have heard a news about that our enemy is almost close to our territory and get ready to attack us. But we won't let that happen, do we?"

The crows cheered,

"So here from today and tomorrow," Renesmee continues. "We will strike back at them unseen, then the real battle begins. Our victory is to get the Kings' heart; alive and beating. It will be offered to me as a sacrifice and for my hunger, that's when we will know that we will win this war. If we fail, we will train even harder and be prepared even harder and to do it again. Do you understand?"

"Kaw, kaw!" The crows answered,

"This is for our honor, bravery and sacrifice for our kingdom. The kingdom stays strong while others thought that we are weak. No, they've thought wrong. They are the ones that are weak, and that's how we have so many vengeance and something else that could makes us stronger...fear. Fear feeds us and the fear blinds them when we are ready to attack, do you understand that my children?"

The crows' kawed,

"Now it's time to awaken their fear and get ready to attack!"

The crows kawed their cheer,

"Nightwind," she stood up. "You group the patrols and everything, it's time to fight back."

"Yes ma'am," Nightwind slowly stood up and get things ready.

As soon as we're done, Renesmee thought. I will be waiting for my prince to be awaken, then every warrior and apprentice are armored up, including Nightwind and everyone is ready.

Before they could head out, Nightwind heard something. "Nightwind," a squeaky voice called to his name and he turned around and see...

"Sonya," a small child that is close to his height has come to his side. "What's the matter?"

"Nothings' wrong," Sonya answered. "I just wanted to come with you,"

"You know that is not part of the rules,"

"But I wanted to help,"

"There's one thing that you can do," Nightwind puts his hand on Sonya's shoulder,

"Like what?"

"You do know that there is a guest in our masters' room, right?"

"Yes,"

"Well maybe you could guard the guest while we are gone," then Sonya looks at him. "Would you do that?"

"Sure," Sonya replied. "Would it be okay that I get my litter mates and my friends to help?"

"Sure, but make sure that you all stay close. Okay?"

"Okay," then Nightwind lets' go of her. "Good luck," then Sonya went to get her siblings and friends to guard the door of Renesmee's room. Nightwind smiled lightly, but Renesmee has saw it all.

So, Renesmee thought. Sonya is the right future apprentice for him after all, then they all have headed out. Except for a few staying behind so they could defend the boarder.

To the kings' camp site, everyone is resting before moving on ward. But they didn't know what is coming from within the shadows.

In the shadows, Crow Soldiers grouped up into different teams. One is on the north side of the camp; one group is on the east side of the camp; one group is on the west side of the camp; and Nightwind's group is on the south side of the camp. With Nightwinds' command, they have attack to the battle supplies. The explosion has woke everyone up in camp, including King Siegfried; Mytho, Queen Rue, Fakir and Duck. Suddenly they heard a voice, "We've been attacked!" one of the soldiers shouted then Mytho puts on his armor on quickly and he looked outside. Then he saw a huge group of crows went into the shadows,

"Follow the crows!" he ordered, and some of the men followed them. "Rue," he turned to his wife. "You stay here with Tutu and some of the guards in camp, Fakir and I will handle this."

"Please, be careful." Miss Rue said to him as they both kissed,

"I will," he walked towards the entrance of the tent. "We will be back with the children and the ravens' heart," he turned to Fakir. "Ready Fakir?"

"Ready," Fakir answered.

"Alright then, let's go!" then he, Fakir and the group of men has went after the crows. Hang on my son, Mytho prayed. We're coming...whenever you do...do not let her take control of you or Heaven!
