Soldiers Keepers

"Hey!" shouted the little boy,"Don't touch that." Reneldo grinned and tried to pull out the sword logged in the ground that would not move under his influences."Leave it" shouted the first boy again. "Make me Asher!"

Reneldo kept tugging at the handle of the large sharp weapon. "Oh oh," said Asher "don't look now but the owner's coming." Reneldo let go of the weapon as he saw the shadow of a large man standing next to him.He slowly looked up to see a soldier covered in plate mail armor and a large iron helmet over his head. The man stood looking down at his feeble frame. He was guiding a white stallion by the reins, he bent down to match Reneldo's height. "What on earth are you doing?" he whispered in a stern voice. Asher quickly hid himself behind a large tree. "I...I,I-" Reneldo began to speak but he was cut off by the raising of the soldiers index finger. "Dont ever play with swords" he held down his finger "ever" he continued. He went past the boy , pulled the sword fro the rock and sheeted it to his waist. Asher remained behind the tree smiling at his shivering brother. The man led his horse to a small stream of water. "Where are your your mothers?" fake curiosity flooded his face. Asher suddenly grew cold, his face turning pale. "You can stop hiding , I don't kill children, only punish them." Asher tried to pretend he was not there but the keen senses of the soldier proved he was.
