Sojiro hopped with glee when the girl unlocked the cage doors, and quietly swung them open.
She motioned with fingers to her lips to follow her.
Sojiro protested.
"I'm not leaving without my sword."
The girl sighed, then made the same motion. She and Sojiro made their way down the hall, and through several more twists and turns, came to a huge room, weapons of all kinds hanging there.
"Thou's blade is in here. This be the Armoury. Locate thou's weapon, and let us make haste."
Sojiro waved his hand.
"Yeah yeah yeah. I got it. Ooh, look, Nunchaku... Maybe I should just hold on to this and..."
"WHAT 'AVE WE HERE THAN?!"
Sojiro wheeled around and saw a big clumsy looking knight blocking the doorway. He was holding the young girl by the neck, keeping her feet off the ground.
"Grull hath been ordered to guard this here armoury. I also hath been ordered to kill any pests I come across. Looks like I've found a couple o' rats!"
He yelled, throwing the girl aside and running at Sojiro. He only had a small dagger, and with weapons all around, Sojiro wheeled around and slammed the knight in the face with the Nunchaku he had found earlier. The knight had backed up, but did not fall down.
"But... I hit you! Hard!"
Sojiro stammered, backing up. He looked around for another weapon, and saw a sword, small enough for him to wield. As he picked it up he turned back around toward the knight but stopped.
the knight has resumed his position, holding the girl by the neck, except his knife was against her neck.
"Thou shouldn't move, if thou wishes to keep the damsel intact..."
He said evilly. Sojiro sighed, thinking that he had to do the chilvalrous thing, and drop his weapon, which he did. But he noticed something the knight did not.
Grull dropped the girl and picked up a huge blade, massive. He laughed, and was about to swing it toward Sojiro, when Sojiro darted toward him. Grull's reaction time was slow, and the weapon's weight allowed Sojiro to have enough time to Dropkick him. The weapon flew through the knights hands, and landed with a loud clang. The knight, not falling, backed up, unable to stop. He backed up into a rack of spears, and they all pierced his back, digging deep into his flesh.
"RGHHAA!"
Grull yelled in pain, trying to free himself from the steel bed.
Sojiro ran over to the girl, as her amazed eyes opened up wider.
"No warrior would drop his own weapon and use such an unusual method!"
Sojiro got her to her feet, grinning.
"I'm not from around here. Those rules don't apply to me."
He walked out of the armoury next to her, and almost tripped on somthing. He turned back, seeing his sheath, and the handle of his sword resting on the ground. He snatched it up, then turned around to flee.
