The attack on the Silver Castle

We began by starting to take all the information we know and looking at it. We know that Amets has ghostly minions and they have a command structure. Amets hides inside of a silver castle and that is where we will have to strike. The way and how Amets powers work is unknown, but we know it causes people to disappear.

The pressure started to hit, we were about to fight one of the dark knights. I felt a little afraid but during my time here I have become more courageous than before thanks to God.

“We will strike in two weeks, we must get ready before that!” Brandon shouted to encourage the knights. In that time I would come to train my butt off and learn how to use the Sword of the Spirit to defeat Amets. And after two long weeks it was time for our attack to commence.

We would attack the silver castle from five sides. My team would be the one sneaking in and would consist of Me, John, Brandon and 2 others. The others would attack the Silver castle from all sides.

Before we started our marching towards the castle of silver. Julia stopped and said “Matthew before you leave please let me pray over your safety” And so she prayed beautifully “Dear heavenly father protect Matthew and these other brave knights who are heading off into war. I pray that you will protect them and grant victory over those who have come to only do harm and cause division. I pray that you will be present with them Lord, In your almighty name I pray, Amen.”

And then we were off. We marched for hours and then we started to see ghost soldiers marching around. We decided to try ambushing them and I dashed with incredibly fast speed and took them down in mere moments. “God has given me a grandiose blessing” I thought to myself and thanked him for his guidance.

Then after a few hours of walking we had arrived before the capital of Itxaro, Argyros. And in the capital there were lots of people, but they were being oppressed by the evil of Amets. In the middle we could see a castle made out of pure Silver. We prepared to attack, but then we saw something we would have never expected. A silver dressed knight with a sword like that of a katana marching out of the castle. We had seen him, it was Amets. We were confused. Why would one of the five dark knights suddenly march out of his castle in front of everyone. We were too far away to tell why so we would have to get closer. If Amets isn’t in his castle everything falls apart.

We snuck into the capital and heard Amets. “This day we will march into the nation of Irati and truly conquer the whole continent of Vitale! WE WILL WIN!”

We all were afraid, if Amets took down one of the last nations, there would be chaos all over. We would have to stop this at once. We waited for Amets to return to his castle and relayed the information to every other group. We would commence the attack in mere moments. Now there is no going back. And so the attack commenced, our forces numbered around 5000 and attacked from all sides. The ghosts had no chance to fight back; we outnumbered them very quickly and smoothly. We took out one commander after the other, and their command structure fell apart.

During the fighting my group managed to sneak into the castle in which we silently defeated very strong ghosts one after another. And then we saw a ghost we had seen before, the headless horseman. Brandon said to me and John “Go ahead we will hold him off!”. We left Brandon and the others to fight the headless horseman and ran to the throne room where we saw him sitting in the center of the room waiting for us. Amets stood up and said “Knight of God, I will destroy you who wants to stop our plans. Sol might have failed, but I won’t!”

And so Amets charged sword drawn towards us, but me and John had trained for this for weeks and were prepared for something like this. We both dashed in opposite directions and as we predicted Amets chose to follow me instead of John.

John dashed immediately full force towards Amets, but he failed. Amets reacted faster than we expected and slashed towards John and then we saw it! The ability Amets has is not only something that makes things disappear, but it is also teleportation! Amets managed to hit the helmet John was wearing and it was teleported in his hand and started to vanish slowly.

“Anything he hits he can teleport or vanish! That's too unfair!”John shouted to me. I knew there was something I could do and so I prayed to God for strength. “Lord please help me find the strength to defeat this evil before me” and God gave me a revelation! The Armor of God will protect against all of the dark knights abilities if used well. That was all the info I needed and shouted to John “Trust me in this and back me up!” and used the dashing technique John taught me to go faster and faster. And then when I got really close I let the sword of Amets barely touch my helmet and it was not teleported and it didn’t vanish either! Both me and John at that moment started to attack, John from a distance and me right next to Amets, blow after blow from both sides with overwhelming speed, we thought we were starting to overwhelm Amets, but he had one last trick up his sleeves. He started to charge his sword and it started to emit a silver light. We both decided to back up and the Sword of the Spirit started to glow. I shouted “John get behind me!” and he hid behind me.

Amets slashed in a circle motion and a silver light started to engulf all the surroundings. I sliced it in half with the help of God and when the light had disappeared the only thing left of the castle was the wall behind us and the floors below us. He had with a big blast removed all of that which was in the way of him getting support from his minions.

And before we knew it Brandon came flying through the floor with the headless horseman right behind him. We shouted and asked Brandon if he was fine and he answered “Never better, but that flash wasn’t appreciated” We with our eyes tried communicating and John and Brandon would take care of the headless horseman and I would take care of Amets. Me and John dashed towards our opponents and Brandon started to prepare his big attack. Amets was now not being overwhelmed like before but still enough for me to push him back. John and Brandon had it much easier. The headless horseman started charging at them with his spear and he attacked them with irregular force, but John could easily dodge it, but Brandon's speed was lacking. He was a tanky soldier which was holding him back against specifically this kind of opponent. In that moment John managed to separate the horse from the horseman and separated it from its body and made it too weak to fight.

During their fight I had gotten Amets really close to missing a block, but not close enough. Me and Amets were trading blows left and right, but it wouldn't go so well for me. I missed a blow and in that moment I ended up with a sword in my chest. The pain was unbearable and I could barely stay awake. I could hear some noise coming from John and Brandon. But the only voice I heard was God saying “Now is your chance Matthew!”. I felt every muscle and bone in my body ache, but I still with all my strength I gripped the Sword of the Spirit which started glowing brighter than ever before and struck at Amets with a strike more powerful than any I have ever used and then I passed out.

When I woke up I saw John and Brandon. I asked them, “did we win?” and they said yes. I thanked God for our victory. Without him none of this would ever have happened. Then I thought to myself why am I not dead? I have a sword pierced through me and I got up and looked and the wound was healed. God had healed me! Praise God I said out loud. Then I could hear a faint voice coming from Amets, “Just so you know I am the least dangerous of the dark knights, the others are more powerful and cunning than I am, you will not win”. 

And then Amets died and the Nation of Itxaro was liberated from his tyranny.
