Duel Charming

Toby Robinson: Dream Sword! (Toby said as he summoned his sword)... Dream Shield! (Toby said as he summoned his shield)... Ready when you are! (Toby confidently tells Charming)

Charming smiles as he unsheathes his steel sword, and then points it at the young dreamer.

Prince Charming: Your stance is weak, and you hold those weapons like an amateur, so I could easily knock you off balance. You're nervous, which tells me you're not as prepared as you think you are. I'll ask you one more time, are you here to challenge me, Toby Robinson? (Charming asks Toby, giving him one more chance to back down)

Toby Robinson: Yes I am! Now let's get on with it! (Toby yells determinately)

Prince Charming: (Chuckles) Your eyes, they tell a story of a young man who has fought his fair share of battles. And is trying his very best to better himself. But my eyes, they tell a different story, a story of a Warrior, who has been shaped by war, and hardened by battle! Who trains, fights, and bleeds every single day to get stronger, not for some selfish reason, but to protect what he holds dear... Now Toby Robinson, who do you think would win between those two? (Charming asks)

Toby Robinson: The one that is me! (Toby responds before rushing forward, his sword and shield at the ready)

Prince Charming: It is as I thought, you're not ready to face me. (Charming says to himself)... This will be quick. (Charming said before rushing forward, moving at incredible speeds)

Toby sees Charming become nothing but a blur, and instinctively raises his dream shield, barely managing to block the powerful sword strike from the prince.

Toby Robinson: He's crazy fast! (Toby notes as he struggles to hold back the blade)

Prince Charming: I'm surprised you reacted to my attack. You're even stronger than I thought! (Charming smiles before kicking Toby in the stomach, launching him back)

Toby manages to land on his feet, but blue blood escapes from his mouth as he struggles to remain on his feet.

[-23HP]

[77/100HP]

Toby Robinson: Ow. (Toby groans before spitting out the rest of the blood in his mouth)

Prince Charming: Hope you're ready for another attack. Because here it comes! (Charming warns before rushing forward once again, his sword now ready to do some damage)

Toby manages to block the attack from Charming once again, but the prince just continues to swing his sword, pushing Toby back with each strike.

Browny looks on worriedly, contemplating whether or not to interfere with this fight. It is not until Charming punches Toby in the face, that Browny finally decides to act.

Browny rushes forward, looking to aid his friend in battle. But a strong figure blocks the bear's path, and it was the Noble Steed of Prince Charming.

"And where do you think you're going?" (Noble asks with a loud stomp of his hooves, stopping Browny from moving forward)

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

"Out of my way you stupid horse!" (Browny growls in anger, baring his sharp teeth)

"Make me you one eyed fool!" (The horse snorts, responding to Browny's insult)

The two beasts lash out at each other, with Browny trying to tear off the horse's flesh with his claws, and Noble trying to stomp on the bear's skull with his hooves.

While the two animals are locked in an epic stalemate. Toby is still managing to defend against Charming's attacks, but doing so very poorly.

[-5HP]

[-10HP]

[-3HP]

[47/100HP]

Toby Robinson: I can't keep this up. I can see his movements, but that's it... Am I going to lose? (Toby contemplated in fear)

Browny lashes out with his claws, the slash drawing blue blood from Noble's chest. The horse angrily rears up, stomping down on the bear's skull with his front hooves.

Browny's body smashes into the ground, and once there Noble rears up, stomping on his body once again.

[Browny Has Been Injured]

Toby Robinson: No! (Toby says before turning away from his fight, paying for it with a boot to the face)

Prince Charming: Keep your eye on your opponent, I could have killed you just now. (Charming warns, his sword pointing at the fallen dreamer)

[-5HP]

[42/100HP]

Toby Robinson: Thanks for the advice. (Grunts) Appreciate it. (Toby tells him as he struggles to his feet, his injuries slowing him down)

Prince Charming: You were worried about your friend, right? You don't have to be. Noble will not end his life. (Charming assures him)

Toby Robinson: Why would I be worried? Browny will be perfectly fine. You should worry about your own friend. (Toby tells him with a devious smirk)

[Browny Has Activated His Terror Charge]

Browny's fur ignites with the fiery blaze of terror energy, and a deep growl escapes from his lips. The bear stands up from the ground, his presence making Noble step back.

Browny: You'll pay for that!!! (Browny tells the horse with a mighty roar, before charging towards him)

Noble: Don't make me laugh! (The horse responds before rearing up again, trying to stomp on Browny's skull)

Browny lashes out with his now energized claws, easily knocking Noble to the ground. Browny then stands on his hind legs, pouncing on the horse with his enormous bulk, effectively pinning him to the ground.

This takes Charming by surprise, keeping his attention long enough for Toby to run towards him, preparing to attack. By the time Charming notices his approach, the young Dreamer is already close to him, his eyes glowing with dream energy.

Toby Robinson: Dream Beam! (Toby shouts, blasting at Charming with the power of his dream beams, aiming for his head)

[Dream Beam Activated]

[-39 Dream Points]

[Dream Bank: 272 Dream Points]

The blast of energy rockets towards Charming's head, but he manages to dodge the attack, doing so by the skin of his teeth. Charming then moves quickly, reaching the young dreamer and seizing him by the neck, lifting him off the ground.

With Toby's head forcibly raised, the dream beams could hit nothing but air, doing no harm to Charming whatsoever.

Prince Charming: I must admit, you actually surprised me. I had no idea you could use magic. (Charming tells him with a smile, the power of the beams soon fading from Toby's eyes)

Toby struggles to bring his head down, trying to aim for another blast. But using the firm grip around Toby's neck, Charming throws his body aside, launching him near the ruins of the Royal Castle.

[-6HP]

[36/100HP]

Browny becomes furious upon seeing this, and charges towards Prince Charming, determined to rip him to shreds.

Browny: I'll kill you! (Browny roars as he continues to charge forward, his fur burning more intensely)

Charming readies himself for this fight, taking a fighting stance with his sword.

But then Browny suddenly stops running, his gaze fixed on someone else.

Charming turns to see what has stolen the bear's attention, and sees that it is Toby Robinson. The young dreamer is already back on his feet, his hand raised above his head, a sign for Browny to stay back.

Toby Robinson: It's okay, Browny! I've got this remember! (Toby tells him confidently, with blue blood dripping down his forehead)

Prince Charming: Look at you, you can barely even stand. What makes you think you can still win this fight? (Charming asks, genuinely intrigued)

Toby Robinson: I can't believe I finally get to say this. (Toby thinks with an inward smile)... I thought I was strong enough to defeat you, but I was mistaken. Now that I know your strength, I'm done holding back! (Toby declared with a big grin on his face, his determination palpable)

Prince Charming: Prove it to me! Show me what you're truly capable of! (Charming demanded, readying his sword and smiling with anticipation)

Toby Robinson: First things first... Heal! (Toby says as he finally makes use of his healing abilities)

[-64 Dream Points]

[Dream Bank: 208 Dream Points]

[100/100HP]

[Health Restored]

Prince Charming: What sorcery is this? (Charming asks in shock, watching Toby heal from his injuries in mere seconds)

Toby Robinson: If you like that, then you'll love this! Tamed Empowerment, Activate Terror Charge! (Toby yells as he activates the skill, unleashing a pulse of terror energy from his body, pushing the air back)

[Terror Charge Activated]

Toby's body now radiates with the intense power of terror energy, making him a menacing figure to behold. Charming is shocked by this sudden display of power, but tries to remain calm, not letting his emotions get the better of him.

Prince Charming: This power, it's on a whole other level. I need to stay calm, even the slightest mistake now, and it's over for me. (Charming thought to himself, steeling his resolve to win)

Toby Robinson: The last time I used this skill, I think it messed with my head a little. I wasn't sure at first, but now I know it's true! (Toby warns before his demeanor suddenly changes, becoming more aggressive and menacing)... I'm about to take you down, Prince Charming! Hard!!! (Toby bellows before running forward, moving so fast that all Charming sees is a blur)
