Uberia: Chapter XIII Headstrong Diplomacy
As they moved through the main gates at Boredatwork during the sun's descent, it was apparent that this town had been untouched from McBain's evil grasp. People were moving throughout the streets, merchants were selling their wares, and the street lamps were being lit as night fell upon the city. They seemed totally ignorant to the fact that a castle within two days march from them had been entirely overrun with an evil tyranny.
Layney and his five lackeys stood in front of the Boredatwork council like a murder of crows awaiting their prey. They stood in silence as they waited on response from the other end of the large u-shaped table, where Queen Ashlee and her seven high council members sat.
"No," said Queen Ashlee, "We will not bow down to McBain and his army of idiots." Her glare cut right through Layney like a thousand silver daggers. "We are not to be easily mistaken as weak Layney; we have means to defend our city."
Layney sat in silence for a moment, and then moved closer to the table. "Those are brave words, dear Queen, but your words are in vain." A smirk came upon his cold and calculated face. "If you journey outside to the terrace, look out over your city walls to the southern hills and you will notice Lord Mmmvag standing with over one-thousand of our finest troops, ready to take this city by force. Compared to our power, you have NO defenses"
Queen Ashlee rose from her chair; her white dress was a long and flowing silk gown which seemed to have its own personality as it moved with her, not as if it was on her. It was the robe she wore on any terms of diplomacy, often intimidating the poor souls that would stand before her on the other side of the table. She was a radiant beauty with long reddish blonde hair, but yet a force to be reckoned with. The council stood with her, in one fluid motion. Beside her stood Kristen, Urbane Mischief, Spike Goddess, Volklcess, Anansie, Audjgirl, and Ainkara. They were the merciless protectors of the Queen. They were sisters of power, often overwhelming those who would think that their beauty represents weakness. It would be the last mistake that any of them would have made. "You are no longer welcome here" Kristen said with an authoritative voice, "Leave now or suffer the consequences".
Layney slighted his eyes towards the lackey to his left, "Booles, NOW!" The men drew their swords and pressed forward. "Big mistake" said Ainkara as the eight women flowed over the table and surrounded the men before the men could even strike. The sound of blade to flesh rang through the air as the women attacked without mercy. Not a single parry or defensive move could be executed before the men were all dead. Within seconds, the battle was over. These women were possibly the best fighters in Uberia, often relying less on calling their post and more on trusting their blade. Boredatwork was the sister city to Ubersite, allies and friends, and when news of Ubersite came to QueenAshlee, they immediately prepared for war. They would not give in until their last breath was exhaled from their lungs, and now they were ready to fight.
The knights of Ubersite moved through the streets of Boredatwork towards the marketplace. "Alright listen, I know this is home to most of us, but we don't have time for pleasantries, we are only here by default to pick up some goods, and get back to our King" demanded Razor. "First, let's exchange quick pleasantries with the Queen." They agreed as they moved down the cobblestone path towards the center of the city. They passed through the marketplace, a field of tables lined in perfect rows for any who would want to sell their commodities. Some of the more established merchants had their own buildings, those who required more than just a stand, such as blacksmiths, clothiers, and stables. They moved quickly through the labyrinth of trinkets, goosgoos potions, and incense to make their way to the Queen's Palace. The Palace stood as the highest and largest building in Boredatwork. Its entrance was preceded by a grand marble staircase, and at its apogee stood a welcoming terrace that overlooked the entire city and the lands beyond their city walls. It was usually a marvelous site, but on this day a mildly disturbing one as Razor noticed a group of guards moving quickly through the inner doors to the Palace. "What should we do, Razor?" Lisa asked. "Wait here, let's just observe and stay out of the way for a bit", Razor replied as they watched pandemonium break out atop the stairs.
Mmmvag stood, awaiting the signal for attack from his lead post-killer. "What are we looking for milord?" asked one of his soldiers, as he stood anxious and ready for battle.
"A sign to attack". From their distance, they could see the massive palace and a clear view of its terrace. They watched as they saw eight ladies burst through the palace doors, all dressed in white. The woman in the lead had something grasped and dangling from her hand. "It's a head," proclaimed one of Mmmvag's soliders. "It's Layney's head" he added as the post-killer's watched the female draped in silken white turn in their direction and toss the head, as if trying to reach Mmmvag himself from her palace steps. The head lobbed through the air and then eventually disappeared behind the city walls. "That's our cue, they obviously want a fight, let's give them one."
The three knights of Ubersite stood in disbelief of what they had just witnessed from below. "Razor did you just see that?" asked McGinny, as if anyone within a mile's distance would miss the spectacle that was just displayed by the Queen. "Looks like somebody pissed them off something fierce; let's go see what the commotion is all about." The knights marched up the steps to meet the council who were now all standing at the top of the staircase. As they ascended, Queen Ashlee noticed them. "Razor, I hope you came here to fight."
"Fight, you mean McBain's men are coming?"
"Look to the south"
Razor, Lisa, and McGinny all turned to the south as they saw a cloud of dust surrounding a fast-closing force of post-killers. "My Queen they are too powerful, they will run right through your defenses, there are too many of them."
"Then we die today, defending our honor" she replied.
"Dammit, if you aren't going to budge let's get to work" said McGinny, as he drew his sword.
Queen Ashlee stood at the top of the staircase as Anansie rang the warning bell. Most of the town was still ignorant to what was going on, since the tall walls protected them from anything in view on the outside of Boredatwork.
"Here me soldiers and warriors, we are under attack by McBain and his men, and we need to rally together. Defend our beautiful city, as we do not want to suffer the same fate as Ubersite. Most of the soliders already knew what to do from the sound of the warning bell, as they began to fortify the city gates and arm themselves to prepare for war.
"Queen Ashlee, can I ask how many soldiers are present here today?" inquired Razor.
"About two hundred men"
"And it looks to me we are about to fight five hundred to a thousand, impossible odds"
"Well I just love a challenge Razor, now arm your posts and get ready."
"I just pray to Uber that Lord Bart and Jonukah are ok right now."

Jonukah - I always take cc to heart, thanks for the help. In my defense, it was written well into the night and morning, so my proofing and creativity was slowly dwindling.
Lisa - throbbing member will probably be two words that will not be in this story, with the exception of the ultra-hot love scene (That could span multiple chapters) between Mac and LaNa, or the one between Phinch and Queen Ashlee. Or better yet, the 10 chapter anal scene between Koolmang and McBain. Stay tuned
DarthAwesome - Helm's Deep eh? Yes, the visual could become suprisingly familiar, however, I see this battle as going much differently from both the LOTR's and the battle at Ubersite.
I've got a few more tricks up my sleeve, suprises, etc.. this was a connecting chapter and I almost hesitating writing it.
As for the story, I've got plenty of content, but I hesitate drawing this out and having my friends at Uber lose interest. I want this to span and touch on a lot of things, but I don't want to make this "Oh Shit, here comes chapter 5000, more paragraphs, posting, blah blah... Your thoughts?

Hmmm, this sounds familiar. Helms Deep anyone?
Keep up the great work man, this is one of the most enjoyable threads to read.

Megalomania, bart.
When does this thing heat up? I don't have the attention span for stories with no poorly punctuated smut. Here's a +2, but I didn't read it; I searched for "love button," "throbbing member," and "waves of pleasure" and got nil.

Why do I have the feeling that one day this will be made into a 10 hour $600 million movie trilogy?

Now that I've actually read it, I'll offer some constructive criticism:
Be more efficient with words.
"Queen Ashlee rose from her chair; her white dress was a long and flowing silk gown which seemed to have its own personality as it moved with her, not as if it was on her"
I would have said something more like:
"Queen Ashlee rose from her chair; her long, white silk gown flowing about her of its own will"
Not a sermon. Just a thought.

This kicks even more ass than the other ones. I don't want to die either, though. I guess if it's my time, it's my time.
