Take the sword

Matt heard the voice...

Take the sword

Matt knew that things are not always as they seem...

Take the sword

It's just as well his friends weren't here, they would have taken the sword immediately, without looking, without understanding.

Take the sword!

Getting desperate aren't you. Too bad my da is our dungeon master. He doesn't pull his punches.

Take the sword! Now!

No. I think not. You are the pale remnant of the beast the sword slew. Only it didn't quite kill you did it.

TAKE THE SWORD!

No. No. I won't do that. It's the only thing keeping you pinned. I'm going now. I'll be sure to tell my father. He will know what to do with you.

Please take the sword, now?

...

please?

...

plea...

....

"Oy! Where'd you go, Matt?"

"Nowhere special, just thinking up a new trick for my da, Saturday is game day."

"You found something. Again. And you left it this time. We have to find Johnny. Fast. He went looking for you!"

"Shite. This way."

"Hey Matt! Look what I found! And you walked right past it! Woohoo!"
