The tragic days (Nimona fanfic)

Before the tragic day

It all started with two knights in training, Ballister Boldheart and Ambrosius Goldenloin. There were best friends to the people around them, but in reality, they were in love.

Ambrosius was clearly excited for the next day as they were getting knighted, but ballister still thought that everyone hated him because he was a commoner who broke into the institution as a child to become try become a knight, and well, look at him now, about to get knighted, he should be happy but he's just so scared.

"Hey, you excited for tomorrow?" Asked Ambrosius with an excited tone, not even realising what's going on in Ballister's head.

"Yeah, I guess I am." Ambrosius can tell there's something up with Ballister, but he just decided to ignore it for now. Both Ballister and Ambrosius did some training for a few hours, fake fighting with wooden swords like they were kids again, both laughing and enjoying each others company.

Queen Valerin saw them, and she smiled a bit, not noticing that the director was behind her. She turned around and obviously got a scare from the director.

"Director, you scared me. Do you need something?" She asked with a small chuckle.

"Your majesty, do we really need Ballister to protect the realm? He doesn't even have royal blood in him. It's not what Gloreth would've wanted, and she'd definitely wouldn't want her grandson to be playing around with that commoner." Said the Director, it was clear that the Director never liked Ballister, the reason was unknown.

"Director, I assure you that this is what Gloreth would've wanted, she'd someday wanted anyone to hold the swords and become knights of the realm, and I've been watching over Ballister for years, I think he has what it takes to be a knight." Queen Valerin seemed confident about her choice of making Ballister a knight. The director just sighed and walked out of the room.

Meanwhile, in the armour room, Diego (the squire) was checking out Ballister's armour. He even recorded himself checking out the armour. 

"Check it out. I’m in the locker room, and you are looking at history in the making. Ballister’s armour. It’s speaking. It’s saying, “Respect me. Protect me. Put me on. No one’s watching.”" Diego put on Ballister's armour, but then he heard footsteps coming towards him. It was the director. Diego quickly went up to where Ballister's armour was before he put it on and acted as if he wasn't inside it, the Director on the other hand took out a fake sword, the sword looked exactly like Ballister's sword but there was a dark twist to the sword but I'll let the next chapter tell you what it is. 

The director walked away after switching the swords. After a few minutes, Diego got put off the stand and ran to his phone to stop recording. 

"I gotta show this to Ballister, I'll do it tomorrow after I give him the sword." Said Diego, and he quickly got out of Ballister's armour and put it back to where it was before.

Diego ran towards where Ballister and Ambrosius were. He didn't know they were there, thought. 

"Woah, squire, you're in a rush tonight." Said Ambrosius as he laughs a bit. 

"Oh um, my house, I gotta, uh, feed people there?" Diego was clearly shit at making up excuses and clearly had no bitches at his house, but he just ran off after he said what he said.

"I think there's something wrong with the squire, he doesn't normally act like that." Ballister said with a concerned look, but him and Ambrosius both just shrug it off and go back to their conversation until they started to get tired.

"Well, let's go get some rest, we don't want to be tired tomorrow, because tomorrow we will be full on knights!" Said Ambrosius excitedly but also with a yawn.

They both walked to their homes and even though they may be in separate homes they both landed on their beds at the same time and fell asleep.
