I really find it hard the most when opening up.

I am not a person who would share his life right away to anybody. I am not a person that can easily trust someone. Trust takes a lifetime to build but needs only a moment to crumble and my trust has been shattered many times since the beginning of my time.

I do not like to expose my weakness to anyone. That is why I never before share a story of my life to anybody.

How I would start telling you who I am, who I was my dear children.

I may not like it but I have to tell it my story because after I am done with my story there is a very good chance that you won’t be hearing anything from me.

I want you to know how I started; how did I become so awesome.

I want you to know that I also start from being hopeless.

I am always a skeptic, a critical thinker not in a good way in a bad way, close-minded, pessimistic idiot who don’t believe in any gods and goddesses. But all of that changes because of the major events that happened in my life.

If you are interested why don't you sit and listen to the idiotic tales of mine. If not the suck it up because there is nothing else you can do right now to relieve your boredom.

So, how would I start?

Hmmmnnn...

If you could still remember the warring period there is a certain kingdom who had celebrated a successful campaign of the king. They celebrated their conquest over their neighboring kingdoms.

This kingdom conquer in blood and fire. They always brutally killed all men and raped the women young and old as long it satisfies their lust, in the kingdom they conquer and after they looted everything from the city they conquer they would then burn it all to the ground.

This is a kingdom of cruel and sadistic people. They are beasts among men and I believe the name of the kingdom is already erased from the annals of the history and they are already forgotten, because their deeds can’t be considered as that of a humans.

This kingdom then consider themselves unbeatable and they declare war against the world.

When the army return from the conquest and entered the city, everywhere you go inside the city there is merry making and every one seems not to care about anything in the world. They party and drink believing that they are the strongest army in the world and no one can beat them not knowing what is happening outside the walls of the city.

At night as the king and the noble enjoying the ball provided by the king the sound of alarm sounded.

An undead army is coming to the city a day away from the city according to their lookout.

A 100 thousand skeletons coming from the north, holding big bones, pitch fork or some are a piece of burned wood.

50 thousand warrior skeleton coming from the south, some wearing rugged armor and carrying broken weapons

25 thousand zombies coming from the west

And 10 thousand skeleton knights together with 10 thousand skeleton mages and 10 thousand ghouls as the vanguards.

Every group of undead is lead by lich. That makes the undead army lead by 4 lich generals.

Everyone who had heard the report given to the king is in the state of panic which spread the bad news to the entire city like wildfire turning the city into chaos

The soldiers were wary because they had not recovered yet from their campaign most of them are dead tired from raping and pillaging.

The king promise his men that they could win this battle because they are the unbeatable army that are going to build an empire to the land. The king believe that they still have a day to prepare for the coming undead army.

They are wrong on what they believe because they believe that undead are slow. They don't know that the undead are not crawling or walking into the battle but running and their speed is five time faster than a speed running man.

At dawn the skeleton came knocking on the city's gate and within five hours the gate is broken and the skeleton flood the city.

They are not able to repel the skeletons from the gate because the archer don't have enough supply of arrows even if they have arrows it is still not enough to kill all the skeleton that keeps on coming and this skeleton are not your average skeleton of the undead because this are skeleton with greater movement speed. The skeleton are just very fast which makes killing one not easy.

The soldiers was not able to meet for skirmish with the undead army at the wall because they are still exhausted from their previous campaign, there is total disorder because they lack preparation and most of them are still drunk from merry making. The officers were not able to take control of their mean because of the chaos of the sudden attack. That is why since they are not ready for the battle they were not able to prevent the skeleton from breaking the gate flooding into the city.

It can be observed from the undead army that they only have one rule to follow and that is TO KILL ALL THE LIVING for that reason as they the skeleton come inside the city any living being they could find they slaughter including the animals and critters, no living being is spared.

The people that was killed by the undead army join the rank as they were turn into zombie by the lich general that lead the group of skeletons.

This is an army that does not conquer but annihilate any living on its path. This a terrifying army because it is an army keeps on increasing its numbers as the time passes by. This is an army that increases its number every time they slaughter and where can you find a better one.

When the sun rises up in the horizon as the skeleton mages enters the city they began to chant and together they merge their power to cover the sky with dark clouds and in turn shielded the city from the rays of the sun because some of undead especially the low levels are weak against the sunlight. They are burned by the sun and experience some major de-buffs. That is why to avoid this the company of skeleton mages cover the sky.

Why did these undead become so good in attacking the city?

That is because of me.

Who am I?

I am just your friendly neighborhood skeleton.

Anyway so much for that lame joke, what was my role in that event? Where was I?

I was one of the skeletons who are attacking the city and I am the one de-buffing the soldiers protecting the city and giving the skeletons more movement speed. I was the only pink skeleton you could find among the undead or the skeleton army and I was the only skeleton who don't carry anything or kill anything because my job was to give support. I am a skeleton who don't join the frontline but I am the one who are boosting the skeletons attack at the back. In this war among the living and the dead I am just a humble support who are staying at the back.

And I was the most coward of them all and until now I am still proud of that. . .

Okay, wait scratch that, forget everything I just said. Why don’t we go back way before that happens.

Long ago . . .
