Part 5 of the Battle (The Great War Continue)
As Luke sat at his desk hidden in the room that he had prepared even with the kingdom not knowing that he had returned yet but yet only so few think that the time is about right to show that they have returned. Those things went sour in Luke's mind as he flipped to another page in the history book to get a sense of things about what happened in the old days of that war. Though Luke couldn't recall some of the events that played out since he came back from the Shadows but at least he was pleased with writing everything down at that time. So as he started to read the section, he was pleased with things.

_________________________________________________________________________


When Luke had returned to the kingdom after the devastating news of his brother Aragorn been killed, it hurt a bit as he didn't tell the real news that he had to put his brother back up in a cave where the elder was that changed Luke for the first time. He knew the Elder would be able to help with repairing or healing his brother but that secret Luke must keep at the time. War raged onward and knowing that he and his family were in danger at the time being of being called out, he knew those who remained loyal to the Aryans. Luke wasn't prepared for any of the war, he was just calling things out as he saw fit at the time especially with those who were spying for Luke at the time and hearing what the enemy was doing.

There was one particular moment Luke was hesitant about sending of his warriors out at the time but knowing that they were prepared to fight was the cause. So sending a few of the generals out with an army or so to head off the enemy in numerous areas as they were being overrun at the moment was the thing. Though with his troops being spread than at the moment, he only had one more army that can go out and fight. With Max his brother leading an army to the north at the time, he was the only one left besides his own father to lead the army and given that his father Ryan would do it, Luke choose for him to stay behind.

Taken his arms up at the time, he went to pick up a new cloak he had made for the time being but given the fact this one was to help him blend into the darkness, he began to dress in it as he did he placed the knives that went on his wrist under the cloak arm sleeves. Soon Luke stepped out and faced his kingdom while he shouted out "We never surrender... I will lead the next army as my own family will come. Not all of my family will come with me as those I choose only will remain back and keep this kingdom safe. I fear the enemy is an uprising against us now knowing he is weakened as I have you all following me now instead of him. He will not stop until he has his way once again but that will not happen. We will take this war until he dies by my own hand all." He shouted as he began to walk down the steps of his kingdom going out towards a horse where he met his one daughter Kahlan who was ready to fight along with his son Caiden and a few others. While he did, he turned and looked at his family as he gave his wife one last kiss, for the time being, Luke turned to his father as he gave him one hug as he whispered in his ear, "We will prevail, I have seen the future but tell no one at all." He told his father. At that moment, Luke turned and headed over to a horse where he jumped on it and he reached on down as he took the elder sword that he was given on his horse. As he did then he shouted out "March on." Luke soon moved to trot his horse with the others behind him as he went ahead and turned around while he saw his other family that was staying behind for the last time for a few months. Luke knew the war was coming to an end but this wasn't it. This wasn't the moment where all his family will fight as he needed those he could trust to guard the kingdom also as he needed those others who could fight beside him at the moment too.

A few days went by since Luke left the kingdom with an army of warriors but also given the fact that these were not ordinary warriors and fighters no more. With this new kingdom, Luke made all his armies a vampire who would be fierce when it came to fighting their enemy at the right time. Luke knew which few who would fall in battle and which few who would come out tired of fighting at the end and ready for a few days of rest. Though he also saw where he would not fight the last few of the enemies as he saw them turn against Tritus in his vision. The Up RIse was about to begin when Tritus' own army would turn against him during the fight that Luke will fight him alone. The only thing was the vision he had he did not tell if he alone would make it out of it or what but he would be happy with his family making it.

As Luke and the warriors who he was leading with a few of his family was riding along, Luke knew it was about the time they would dismount into an open field at the time. Though with the resource's that they had gathered along the way from villages of there own this time, he knew these resources would come in hand as they were given a couple of days to prepare for the fight. So as he dismounted his own horse, he turned and looked at the rest as he saw them dismounting. Standing there beside his family that did come with him, he looked at everyone as he said out loud "I need camp set up immediately all. Then I need most of you getting the resources set up as we are amounting a battleground in two waves." He told them. Luke knew the way he was going to set up the fighting scene whether his enemy liked it or what but he knew how he would lure all the enemy army he had came to fight out. As Luke and his family began to set up a smoke delay area, he began to tieing up a few pillars so that they would gather there retreat to the second wave of his army. Good thing though as he knew both the huge army he brought would be great in two places.

A few hours later, Luke saw a few of the soldiers gathering some blood pouches so they could feast and get ready, Luke wasn't ready himself to feast on blood but he had a special few pouches put to the side for him and his family that was made up by his wife at the time before they left. Something that she added in it would give them the strength to keep fighting but she wouldn't tell Luke what it was at the moment.

As the hours went on after that Luke came to sense something in the distant knowing the enemy army would be approaching within the next hour. Luke knew everything was set up and knowing both halves of his armies was set up to fight. Though he had only one other General with him at the time as he didn't want his family to remain in the back with the second wave, he would need them upfront with him. Though with a general at his side, he knew the general would have his trusted follower to have the second wave ready to fight upon the signal. Luke looked towards over half of his army that he came with as he said out loud "Follow the orders of your commander, the rest of you will be upfront with me over the hill where we will fight the first round of this battle, then we will retreat and the second wave will launch the catapults when we start running back here alright. Our horsemen unit will be our defensive unit as they will circle around in the nearby woods to run in behind the enemy to surround them. Once then we all will march forward and fight. So be prepared when the horn is sounded." He told them.

When the time came, Luke had everyone in line in the first and second wave of the vampire fighters he had with him. While he stood out in the open field as he looked straight forward where he could hear the sound of the enemy marching towards them, he knew this fight was happening. Waving over towards his horse troops as he motioned them to be ready while he saw the enemy appearing over the nearby hill in the morning time with fog laid waste on the ground, he nodded as he looked at the huge army before him as he knew it was time. Standing beside his general and the select few of his family who he had chosen to come with him, he said to them "So this will determine the great victory one of us would have. Not sure whom yet, but we will have to have our greater side ready. So do not show our vampire side until the last minute then we start ripping heads off." He said to them as he nodded and said "General You know the plan, now is the time to get on your horse and get back to the second wave. Get them ready as we will not belong" He told him at the time as he saw the first wave of the enemy troops moving towards them. Hearing his general mount his horse he soon road off in between the split first unit to escape for the time being.

As Luke waited for a moment, he kept eyeing the enemy moving forward towards them and then seeing them pick up the speed as they began to run towards them. Motioning his hand towards the horsemen troops to do it, he saw the leader of them turn and ride their horses off towards the west to the woods. Luke knew this would stir the enemy general at greatness knowing they were not taught the defensive movement yet by their leader at the time but this was an idea he came up with at the last moment. At the time, Luke drew his sword from the side where it had hung at the moment since he pulled it a long time ago from the stone in the mountain, he soon said out loud "Launch the Catapults." As he said that at the moment he heard his son Caiden shout out to launch them as he saw over his shoulder a pile of rocks flying in the air, with given the huge boulders that he proclaimed along the journey to get there. Grinning a bit as he saw a lot of the enemy first wave being crushed beneath the boulders that landed hard on the ground and some even rolled like a bowling pin as he watched. Upon seeing that, Luke heard the enemy horn began to play calling for the second and third lines of their units to fight on as he nodded. Luke turned to his daughter as he motioned for Kahlan to get the Archers ready to launch as he waited to with his hand up in the air. The front line of Luke's Army hid the Archers in behind them as he was set for it as he knew the enemy wasn't expecting it at the moment.

Moving his arm quickly down motioning for her to let the archers launch, he soon heard over a thousand arrows being launched in the air towards the enemy as he saw them running towards them. Waiting for the right moment at the time, he saw them coming towards them still as a lot of them fell on the ground due to the arrows. Motioning for his commander to launch the retreat fires, he saw him riding his horse around as he lights the walls of grass he had out in the line of the attack as he said "Retreat." Soon Luke turned after all the first half the army he had started to run back over the hills which would alert the enemy to move in with the rest of there army to attack. Luke knew this wasn't the best thing to do but this would make the enemy general launch a full attack on Luke and his army not preparing that Luke had thought this through. As Luke heard the enemies coming up behind him, he quickly turned and blocked a sword that came at him as he swung a dagger into the chest quickly while they kept running back over the hill. As they kept going, he kept hearing the enemy screaming behind him as he ran with his own first wave as they soon stopped in a ditch where the second wave began to launch the catapults with heavy boulders towards the attacking enemy only to hear a lot of them screaming in pain.

Luke was pleased with this grand idea of his as he soon stood up and crawled out of the ditch in the ground as he shouted out for all his army "Attack." Soon everyone started to attack and swinging their swords as Luke kept on attacking. With the enemy blood spilling into Luke's face, he kept going as he felt a few stab him in the side, but he didn't give up at all as he was supercharged on what his wife had put in the blood pouches that him and his family fed upon before the fight a few minutes before the fight began.

As the fight kept going on for a few hours and knowing most of his army was still fighting, he shouted out so loud as he said "Final assault." He knew every one of his vampire armies knew that signal as they showed them what they were hiding. Luke saw the horsemen unit that he sent in behind the enemy general started to attack as he was standing up on the hill part finally while he began to show his vampire's teeth. Most of the enemy began to retreat as he soon started to use his super-speed he gained when he became an elder as he rushed through the enemy quickly biting them drinking their blood as he snapped a few necks quickly. A few of them fell as his vampire warriors pulled the throat right out of the enemy neck as they drank from them quickly to fight on. With the fight carrying on more, he saw the enemy general started to fight back as Luke rushed on over to block his attack on one of his own family. Taken a sword right in the chest as Luke fell back and on his knee while he took a moment to breathe

Luke knew not to give up at that moment as he saw before his eyes the enemy leader swinging his sword at Luke, though this only made Luke duck his head quickly and jump out of the way where when his foot came up off the ground he could see the dirt flying in the air as he kicked the enemy general right in the chin which only made him fall back. Luke turned his head as he knelt on a knee with his other leg spread out straight as he saw the General spitting out teeth and blood of his only to when he said to the general "Prepare to fall by my hand." He told him as he slid his foot quickly only to run towards the general quickly using his speed as he sprung him up in the air and launched him towards a tree branch that was about thirty feet away from where they had been fighting at. Though with that speed it got them there quickly as Luke threw him on the tree branch. Soon he rushed back a few steps as he said: "Tritus will fall one day. You will not be around at all to see his demise he will have, as we will prevail general, we will take the victory in my kingdom as you choose the wrong side." Luke said as he spat blood in his face but as he did, he raised his hand up and held the general's head back as he said: "The Aryans will prevail and we will live forever unlike you." He said as he quickly responded to that using a dagger on his wrist as he hit a button and the spring launched the dagger right out and Luke split the throat of the fallen General as he began to drink the blood quickly from him.


After Luke got done a few seconds later, he turned only to see his army standing there behind him watching him slit the throat of the last enemy the general as he nodded. Holding his sword up as he shouted out and screamed: "Victory is ours." He said as his warriors started to shout for it also, but this only made Luke hungrier for his quest of killing Tritus with his own hand. His thirst for blood as he remembered the night him and his entire family sat at the table one last time before this battle and he told them that he would drink the blood of Tritus out of his skull, knowing his warriors would see that too as they would see the emperor finishing the war that declared them an enemy in the first place.
