The Dwarves Of Plithir - Part 5

Xeltar

We take what is ours, and we take what we want! and most importantly we take what the others want the most.

Xeltar laid out the plan in front of the crew. Everyone listened carefully to the plan and were confident that could execute their parts. Good! said Xeltar. He looked at Borin! You know what to do, he said to him. Borin nodded. Good! he said again.

Elsewhere, Tektron was briefing his crew about the same plan. Someone interrupted him "Are there people there we should be afraid of ?" Tektron caught him by his throat and choked him to death. Anyone else got any questions? he asked the crew. There was silence. Good! he said. We leave in an hour! he said.

Kingdom....

Philippe was in charge of the day to day running of the kingdom while the queen was overseeing all the matters. Alguran was head of the army. The feeble army that remained. Ardvan and the goblins were long gone. Kurkin was dead and Isis charted the seas at will. As the empires hands began to cover the whole planet, it seemed more of a diplomatic move than that of a move of force and power. Everyone was aware that the kingdoms army was a fraction of what it was, but they played along. Some happy, while some were biting their tongues and smiling at the queen. After all they had the dragon who could wipe them out in a jiffy. And the Brok was getting strong and older, whose allegiance stood with the kingdom. The forests of Algried and the people of Darticus stood alongside the kingdom. Neandrin roamed across the halls of the kingdom with much more frequency as the chief Wilmo had decided his services belonged there more than at his home. The districts and Yondrin complied with the tax systems of the kingdom and poured in revenue at will, and how they got so much was still mysterious. Their factories barely ran and even if they did, were plagued by problems, one after the other. But the Queen nor Philippe care, about it as long as they got their coffins rang in from time to time. They needed the money too, as the army that they were building did not come cheap. The soldiers were recruited far and wide, all across the planet and had to paid a fair sum to their families, in return of their services.

Do we go visit the dwarves? asked Philippe to the Queen. That would not be wise, she replied. And Philippe took it at that and did not further probe further on that matter.

That night...

There was a spaceship that hovered above the kingdom, completely invisible to the ***** eye. Scan the kingdom completely, said Tektron. It is going to take a long time! he said "This place is huge" he said. Do it! he said to the crew member and walked away, Tektron. Elsewhere beneath the ship. Xeltar and the crew staked the place. Noting down the number of guards and the best place to enter the kingdom and steal the precious metal. Borin, said Xeltar. "There will be Archimedes and couple of others who will give us a tough time" said Xeltar. We can beat them! said Borin confidently. No, we won't, said Xeltar. Borin was stood there perplexed. There is Tektron hovering his ship above us as we speak, he said to Borin. Borin grinned. "Why stop a fool from abiding us" said Xeltar. The crew was rounded up by Xeltar "everything is done?" he asked them. Yes boss! they replied to him. Good! lets go he said to them. Xeltar popped his scanner to see if the spaceship hovered above him. It was gone, and his crew left the palace as well.

The Heist

The next night, the craft hovered above the kingdom. The crew of Tektron jumped down with their ropes onto the top of the roof of the kingdom. Xeltar from afar, "They are in" he said to his crew. One of the crew members got himself him into the same outfit as Tektron's crew and ran towards the kingdom. Alguran guarded the front gates while Neandrin roamed the corridors of the palace. Alguran saw this man run towards the palace and became very alert. HE came running inside the gates and darted towards the top of the roof. Who is this? asked Tektron to the crew with his talkie. No idea Boss! was the reply. As the man in their outfit ran towards them. They took their weapons out to gun him down. Stun him! said the crew leader. He was stunned on top of the roof. As they approached to remove the mask. A huge thud landed on the roof, almost shaking them off, of it. Alguran ran towards them with his axe. Gun him! shouted Xeltar. Alguran looked up and became suspicious of what was there on top. He made noises that were more like shouting. Shut him up! shouted Xeltar again as the crew threw rounds at him. By this time, Neandrin and the guards were alerted. Alguran was shot by a few bullets but nothing seemed to happen to him. He swung his axe at will, killing of a few of them. As the rounds became harder for Alguran to handle, there was another large Thud! on the roof. Neandrin ran towards the crew and dragged them to hell one by one. Tektron knew it was time for him to enter the foray. As he leapt to the roof, he saw a fire breather roar across the skies and fly elsewhere. ****! he shouted as he landed on the roof. Neandrin and Alguran stood across him and the rest of the remaining crew. I'l do this myself! he shouted and pushed the two remainign crew of the roof himself.

Xeltar was seeing this with his magnifier. Fool! he grinned and he alerted his crew to start the mission. Xeltar, Borin and the rest of his crew ran towards the palace. They were met with a hundred guards and they were all wiped out of by the crew, mostly by the might of Xeltar. As Neandrin and Alguran were proving to be a tough fight for Tektron. Xeltar and his crew were met by Philippe. "I will take care of this fool" Said Xeltar pointing the crew towards the diamonds. Philippe punched Xeltar to the ground. Xeltar got up and threw him across, breaking a part of the walls of the decorated kingdom. Philippe quickly dusted himself off and caught hold of Xeltar's throat and pinned him to the ground. He repeatedly smacked him to the ground. Xeltar was simply smiling. Why do you laugh? asked Philippe and puched his face to the ground even harder. The kingdom itself was shaking now!

The fight on top was getting affected by the battle below. As one man went to punch the other, they were being repeatedly shaken off. As Neandrin caught the legs of Tektron, Tektron simply shook his leg rapidly causing Neandrin to fly away. Alguran came lunging and punched him in the ribs as Tektron flew from the roof to the ground. Neandrin caught hold of Tektron again and Pulled him inside the ground. Alguran smashed his head as he went inside. While inside the kingdom the both of them were flinging each other apart. Once such fling caused Xeltar to fly out of the kingdom and land atop of Alguran. Xeltar got up "You again?" he said to the giant. Xeltar caught hold of the throat of Alguran and choked him. Up came the hands of Neandrin from the ground and caught hold of Xeltars legs and pulled him inside the ground. Who are they? Philippe asked. I don't know, said Alguran. Me neither, replied Neandrin as he crept up to the ground.

Fire Breather

Don't let them get away, said Philippe to Alguran. Neandrin and Philippe stood in front of Xeltar and Tektron. You cannot kill me! said Xeltar and pounced on Neandrin, as Philippe took on Xeltar. The fight erupted the whole palace and its surroundings, as Alguran chased down the thief's. The thief's were lightening quick and it was a tough race for Alguran to run. He calle dout for the Alguran Oak and the large bird flew hovered above him in a second. What is that? asked the thieves as they ran for their lives. The bird swooped down and picked him up and they hovered on top of the Fleeing thieves. " Run faster!" said the leader of the crew. They picked up their pace but the Oak was too fast for them. It did not have to try hard to keep up with them, while Alguran was waiting for the right time to strike.

Now! he said to the Oak, as the Bird swopped down and flew alongside the thieves. Alguran swung his axe and chopped of a few heads. The thieves were scared to death now and pulled their lungs as fast as they could. "They picked up their pace and grew distant form the Oak and Alguran. Alguran and the bird swooped up higher amidse the clouds and hid itself. " Where are they?" the leader shouted to his crew as they kept running. "There, beyond the mountians" we shall hide, he said to the remaining of the crew. As they were nearing closer to the mountain, the Oak made itself visible. This time hovering a few meters above the running crew. Now! said Alguran, this time to himself and jumped up from the sky and landed on the thieves. With his axe he chopped of a couple of heads as he fell down from the sky. Only the leader remained. To Alguran's surprise, the leader begged for his life. Spare me! he pleaded. Alguran did not delve for a bit. He went and chopped the mans head from the body. " I did not hear you?" he said to the head." What was it you said?" he told the head, and walked away laughing.

By the palace...

Xeltar and Tektron were proving to be a tough fight for Philippe and Neandrin. And everytime Neandrin jumped in o the ground, Xeltar grabbed Tektron and flew into the air. Philippe lunged and brought them down a couple of times, but every time they kept flying higher. Neandrin and Philippe watched on the ground as Xeltar taunted them." launch me" said Philippe. Neandrin swung him at them and Xeltar and Tektron could not move fast and were struck by the flying Philippe. He caught them by the head and put it around his shoulders and reached for the gorund.

Thud!!! He smashed their heads into the ground and pinned them in. Neandrin looked above and the dragon flew above him. It circled around them and landed on the ground. It spewed fire by the side. Philippe let go of them. Xeltar and Tektron stood there scared for their lives. Archimedes who sat on to of it, climbed down and stood by the fire breather. You again? he asked Xeltar. Xeltar stood there still, without speaking anything. Tektron was amused as he did not know that Xeltar had already met the rider of the fire breather. Alguran retuned by then. "Are they dead?" Philippe asked him. Alguran nodded and tossed the diamond over to him. Put them behind bars! said Archimedes. They could escape! said Philippe. " We ought to kill them right here and now!" he said. No, they should be out to trial and if they try to escape they will be met in the air, replied Archimedes. What if you are not there? asked Philippe. Not by me, said Archimedes.

"Boom!" there was a supersonic landing by the Brok. The tremors caused everyone to wobble. By him! said Archimedes. Tektron looked at Xeltar suggesting that they have underestimated the enemy, and Xeltar looked at Tektron diappointed that he too took the bait along with him. "I will tear them into pieces" said Brok. If they try to escape! he raised his voice.

So be it, said Philippe!
