One camp of archers fell dead with arrows in the back of their heads. Elfon turned suddenly and fired an arrow, in midaira man caught the arrow and snapped it in half. "Give up, Elfron!" the man yelled. "That's Gorim, he's the humans fifth in command. I will no give up!" Elfron yelled. "Attack!" Gorim yelled. All of his infrantry charged. Wis! Many infrantry went down line after line after line, then the cavalry charged. "Their not armored under the armpits, and on their necks!" shouted Elfon. Whis! A man tumbled off his horse. Arrows were flying everywhere. Unfortunatly, one of the camps were destroyed because of an elf that got killed and fell over the shields and his body fell on a spear. The cavalry charged through the hole and wiped out the elves in it. 20 elves remained in both of the remaining camps. "Were running out of arrows!" an elf shouted. "We must make a run to the other group," said Elfron. "Go!" he shouted. The elves- broke out and headed toward the other group. "Aaah!" An elf fell an arrow in his head then four more were killed. 15 elves remained. "Get out the crossbows!" Elfron ordered. THe crossbow fired hitting a man in the chest. Then 10 more were cut down by arrows.
when all hope was lost, animals appeared all around them on the hills. "Attack!" a husky wolverine yelled. Out of nowhere eolverines, squirrels, otters, mice, ferrets, weasels, and almost any animal you could think of came out. "Attack the animals!" Gorim shouted aloud. Elfon fired an arrow killing a squirrel. "We must go now," Elfon whispered. THe five remaining elves jumped on their horses and sped off to their nearest fortress. THen some squirrel archers appered in front of them. 2 elves fell off their horses. Another one got killed by arrows. Elfon and Elfron got out their swords and charged into the group. Soon they made it out and continued toward Elgon leaving the battle behind them. "Serubis, an army of elves is heading toward here with 3,000 elves," a hare named Brocky told the large wolverine commander. "Did they pass our capital?" Serubis asked. "Yes, my lord." "Don't attack them." "Yes, Serubis." Then Brocky got out his bow. "But I'm gonna help you out here." Brocky aimed his bow at a man and fired. The arrow zoomed across the field to his target. The arrow hit the man squarly in the chest. But the arrow went right through dragging the body with it intil it embedded in a tree. The wolverine warriors were skilled with a sword. The human soldiers were no match for them. Brocky's arrows were 5 feet long. So he could usually kill 2 men with one arrow. He let another arrow fly taking a man through the neck. A soldier charged Serubis, sword drawn. Serubis grabbed the soldiers sword and snapped it in half against his knee. Then he picked up the man. "Get out of my face!" he snarled. He then threw him across the field. "For!" Gorim was just about to yell something when a flying man fell on top of him knocking him out. An arrow hit a man right between the eyes but a small piece of armor saved his life. "Rats, didn't kill him," Serubis mumbled, latching another arrow. The arrow went flying. It crushed the arrow that was in the man's armor and killed him. 5 cavalry were running away. Brocky fired an arrow taking one in the back of the neck. Serubis cut down two more. Then Brocky got another one. Serubis fired an arrow getting the last one in the middle of the back. Now the humans gave up. "Serubis, we have 500 prisoners. One is Gorim the humans fifth in command." "Good, good. execute all the men keep the young warriors and Gorim." "Yes, sir." The wolverine went off to his duties. "Brocky, how many did we lose?" "16 sir. All squirrels. One by arrow. The rest by sword." The squirrel leader hobbled up holding herbs and poultices to his right ear. "Curse those elves they cut off me ear and killed 15 of my sqirrels." "Are all the dead buried?" asked Serubis. "Yes, sir." "Good now back to the fort." The army marched back to their fort.
Elfron and Elfon had made it back to Elgon. "Oh, Elfron you made it back. What took you so long?" an old elf named Andriel asked. "We were ambushed by humans then Serubis showed up. Only me and Elfon survived." "Thank the lord you are sake." "We do every minute." "Oh, yeah the king wants to see both of you." "We'll see him at once." They trotted up the stairs to the king. "Elfron you have returned." "Yes, sire I have." "Less of that around me, you are prince you know." "Yes, father." "Now how did your raid go." "Perfect the dark elves had no chance. But there also were some orcs. Which troubles me." "Well the humans are going to lay siege to Elgon. We must prepare for battle." "How many elves do we have?" "15,000." "How many men do they have?" "5,000 men." "They'll be no problem whatsoever."
