Crusaders III: The New Age 1.46

The Event First Half Hour at Munich


8.1.          The Event Half – Helmut

Helmut’ sword glowed with the presence of those evils. It was Micheal who came up with the good news.

“Geranium, I found the way to get to the Stadium undetected. Or unknown to them.” Micheal voiced out. “There are some elaborate tunnels below the city.”

Geranium looked surprised, but Micheal explained himself.

“The more known tunnel was the Erdstall System believed to be built in the Middle Ages. Since then more tunnels have been discovered, even as late as 2011. Since then, the city had added in their own tunnels; rail road and subways, and those we had just tunnel out from. But the schematics showed on buried down deep which ran into the stadium.” Micheal was ecstatic about it.

“What if they are waiting for us like the previous one?” Geranium asked.

“They were not waiting for us in the tunnels. They created their own holes into the tunnel we were in. They had us scented out.” Micheal corrected the other. Geranium sighed and then nodded.

“Show me the entrance.” Geranium told Micheal. “We would go immediately. We do have much time. The rally had started.”

“Hold on!” Helmut stopped them. “We can’t just leave. They are there to hunt us if we leave.”

“So you want us to fight them here.” Geranium sighed but Helmut had another idea.

“I would stay and fight them. The three of you leave. You need Micheal for the sniping shot. Crawler could help in detecting any Vampires. And ..”

“Myself?” Geranium asked.

“You are the leader. You need to lead.” Helmut reminded her.

”So I am.” Geranium replied. Then she gave her command. “You would leave with them. I would create the diversion needed.”

“Say’s who that you are my leader?” Helmut shot back. “You would leave now.”

Geranium was past the point of reasoning. She ignored them and walked to the door. She went out even before Helmut could stop her. Helmut saw her standing there alone and then turned to Micheal.

“Go and do the shoot.” Helmut told the other and then joined Geranium. Crawler saw his mistress out there and was to join when he got the new command from her.

“Join Micheal. Protect him.” Geranium shouted. She then saw Helmut standing beside her. The Harpies rushed to their bike, and gunned up their engine. They fired with their bike cannons, and shattered the glass wall of the building while scattering the two Crusaders.

Helmut rolled on his jump while drawing on his sword. He used it then to deflect the cannon shots. He kept on moving and soon closed the distance. He was aiming for the two on the left; Red and Blue. He was to strike at Red when he saw the extra edge of the Harpies.


Red spread her wings and flew up with the bike like she was riding it. She directed the cannons towards Helmut while Blue sped on the ground towards him. It was a split second move when Helmut jumped up as if reaching for Red, but he soon curled his body and did the downward twist to thrust his sword at Blue. The second rider was not prepared for the attack and swerved the bike to drift it across the ground. Helmut landed behind Blue, and did a back swung with the broad sword. He managed to slash Blue on the head when she fell backwards to avoid tangling with the bike. He roll his body to avoid Red’ flight of cannon shots. Helmut got up and rushed to the fallen bike. He picked it up and rode it. He headed for Red with both of them firing their cannons. At the right speed, Helmut climbed up on the seat and jumped from it with his sword raised. He thrust the sword into the bike under belly and into Red. Then he twist the sword, and pulled it out on the side.
