Chapter 7
The Trek to the Castle
Thanos went to the battle as soon as his feet touched the ground. Defenders of the king came at him from the ground and the air but with no prevail. Thanos counted about 1000 of them, pitiful. Thanos shot them out of the sky, and slammed them to the ground. For an hour, Thanos fought with quickness and without flaw. Until the last of the first group of defenders fell. Thanos had beaten them!
He looked at his rugged men. There used to be 900 of them but now there were only about 750. These Questoions with their ability to fly and their extra strength made good adversaries, but also great slaves. Thanos called Blade to his side. "Yes, master," Blade bowed to Thanos, "what do you wish for me to do?"
"Get the captains together for me. You all shall fight at my side in the battle. Don't let their peaceful ways fool you, underneath all that happy-happy joy-joy crap are lethal killing machines. They have taken out about 250 of our men on their first assault. There should be about five more assaults, which will wipe out all our men. I need good fighters around me to ensure victory."
Blade bowed and went to gather all the captains. Thanos called for the navigator. "How long must we walk to reach the west wall?"
The navigator shuffled through his hand held computers. "Only two miles away master."
Thanos dismissed him, "Good, "Thanos said as an evil smile crept over his face.

The two brothers ran faster than they had ever run before, while listening to the back-up station at the castle. "The forces have only landed about two miles away and at their present speed they should reach the main castle in about 45 minutes." the radio crackled. The brother's legs were burning and they wanted to stop. They guessed they were running about 70 mph powered only on adrenaline, which made a new speed record for both of them. Not that they were thinking about records at the time.

Blade rallied all the captains, but he personally talked to Skull, his right hand man, and best friend. "I think all 20 of us captains should ride the motor skeeters ahead and kill most of the men and leave the rest of the army to pick up the scraps." Skull looked at Blade and smiled, "Did you ask the boss for permission?" Blade shook his head, "Not yet, I just thought of the idea."
Blade rushed to Thanos's battle chair. "What do you want," asked Thanos as he saw blade approach. "I think a good idea would be to have us leaders ride the motor skeeters while the rest of the army walks behind. We take out most of the wimps out there and let the rest of the army take care of the scraps."
Thanos smiled, "No."
Blade was astonished, he didn't even think about it!
Thanos spoke up, "Not to make it too easy we will only use half of our captains, and leave the rest to watch our army."
Blade smiled, bowed, and left saying, "I will hand pick the captains for you master."
Thanos let the wicked smile creep on his face again, "Good."
***
King Adam watched the beautiful horizon of Questworld. "So beautiful," he thought, "to bad evil like the warlord Thanos, have come to kill its innocence in search of a powerful gem, that they can't even touch." As King Adam looked on the flat horizon, he suddenly saw ten skeeters come out of nowhere and through his armies like a bullet. They were making a path 30 yards wide killing everyone in their way.
King Adam ran down to the escape pod he had made for his queen. When she told him she didn't want to go he assured her that everything would be ok. He then kissed his queen in a passionate farewell kiss and pushed the eject button on the pod. A tear silently fell down his face as he watched his queen go to a safer place. Looking back out the window, he shook his head, "Have god help us all. Battle stations!"
