Picture of the Day





Intro

Hey guys, how’s it going today? Well yesterday was a nice day to get some of my goals crushed into the ground. Why do I say that? Well it looks like I may not be able to take summer classes…or I might have to take only one class. Why is this you ask? Well I’ll explain it to you, it would seem I’ve used up most of this school years funds (Pell Grant, Loans.) so in other words I’ll have to pay out of my pockets…which isn’t that bad…but then they tell me I have to pay $850 dollars for my two classes by May 1st…now Edge can’t raise that much money in that short of time, but one class will cost me $400 dollars, so if I can at least raise that much then I’ll be ok…and if I can’t, then I won’t take any classes this summer, and I’ll be behind next year…oh well shit happens. Now onto more exciting things. Like for example “The Cursed Knight”, yes today is the day in which the latest chapter is to be posted. And as always it is posted below the rest of the post, so I hope you guys enjoy the twist, and turns I have thrown into it. A god dies, a legend is born, and Rire acts stupid…wait that always happens…and the final twist a lord falls from grace. And I might even throw in something ever more out there, but you’ll have to see for yourself. And one last thing before I close my post…I know that I have two friends on the Otaku that do tournaments (Lordsesshomaru and Caprice), but I was thinking I should try one out for myself…why you ask? Well…to be honest, I’m bored most of the day anyways, so coming up with a tournament would give me something to do…and I could even write fight results, like for example if we had Kenshin Vs Vash. I would give a summary as to how the victor of the match won. In other words I have fights with commentary. Sounds like a good idea, right? Anyways that’s it for my post today, so do enjoy the rest, and please enjoy reading today’s chapter. I shall try my hardest to get to everyone’s sites later today, so see you then.


Q & A

Well it’s time to answer your questions, and today’s first question is from Lordsesshomaru, and he asks “What's your favorite sandwich condiment?” well it all depends on the sandwich to me. If it’s a plain turkey sandwich then I just use plain mustard. If it’s a ham sandwich then I use salad dressing (southern style of mayo) and the list goes on for me. Anyways the next question is from Redmoonchick, and she asks “I dunno I guess I saw you as knightly. Is that even a word?” Yes it is actually a word, and I am knightly…just around certain people I don’t act like a knight because these certain people do not deserve to see Edge at his best. So in other words you guys are used to Edge at his best…and some of my friends are used to me at my worst.


Discussion

Well now it’s time for today’s discussion area and the first discussion is from Lordsesshomaru, and he says “Haste usually makes waste, but so far you've avoided doing that (if you do believe you're going too fast, that is).” Well actually I don’t even think I’m writing it too fast. I was only asking because I had a feeling some of you weren’t able to keep track of how the story progressed…so I felt I should ask if I was moving too fast, because as you all know if I can’t get a chapter out by Friday then it won’t be posted until the next Friday, sorry I hold no remorse for when I can’t seem to write. Anyways the second discussion is from Kunoichi Warrior, and she says “One, cause I have writers block....” Well if you ever need help, I don’t mind at all with helping you figure things out. Believe me I know how hard it is to get a chapter out…but as I said if you ever need help thinking of something just ask me and I’ll try my hardest to help. Anyways the third discussion is from Morbid Twilight, and she says “LOL, my mistake, Edge is an all around pervert. Please forgive me. LOL.” It is alright, I shall forgive this time…and possible the time after that…and I’m sure I’ll forgive you the time after that one as well…but I can’t say anything about the time after that one…so you might want to watch out. The fifth discussion is also from Morbid Twilight, and she says “Nope, if you didn’t get the stories out as quick as you do there would be a riot!” Oh really? Is that a threat? Because I’m sure I can hold out against all of you for a lot longer than you think, and it wouldn’t hurt me any not to post my story…so you sure you want to go against the almighty Edge? Here I am the Ultimate Power!!!



Random Questions

Well today is the day were I give you guys my answers to yesterday’s questions. So they’ll be posted below this, and then under my answers will be a few more questions for you guys. Well have fun laughing at my answers and the new questions if they are funny. And today is the start of a new Question of the day, from now on it will only have one question.




Yesterday’s Question



1.) Am I writing the chapters for “The Cursed Knight” too fast? Well I think I already answered that up in the discussion area…but let me check…*takes a look*…yep I answered it up there.











Today’s Question



1.) So what do you guys think of my tournament idea?

The Original Cursed Knight Chapter Thirteen “The death of a Lord” “Well he does have point with that Edge, wouldn’t you agree…Edge?” Rire asked as he turned around to find me nowhere near him. “It would seem your friend took my advice and is searching for the best armor for himself.” Said Vulcan boastfully as he started to hammer a red hot piece of metal. “So Vulcan, do you think I could grab some armor while I’m here as well. Because you know following Edge around is deadly work, and I’m sure I could use the protection from the armor made by a god could provide.” Stated Rire as he looked over at the armory that eluded him. “Sorry about that small one. But my armor can not be given to one as yourself. You see my armor last as long as the wearer and you being mortal and all…well the armor wouldn’t do you any good, nor would it do my name any good for a mortal to be allowed to wear anything I make.” Said Vulcan as he continued to pound away at the molted metal in front of him. “Great…I won’t be allowed to wear his armor just because I’m mortal…that is just unfair.” Complained Rire as he walked off to a giant stone chair in the corner of the huge room. As I looked around the armory in which Vulcan kept all his pieces of armor I saw pieces that looked like only a god could wear, but then I realized that all this armor was made to be worn by the gods. As my searched continued I saw pieces of armor that would have worked perfectly with my old style of sword fighting, but for some odd reason I knew my old methods would no longer do me any service. So when I finally came upon the pieces of armor I wished to make into my suit I grabbed each piece and attached them to their respective places upon my body. In the end I choose few pieces that seemed to work out perfectly. I wore gauntlets on both hands, a forearm protector and bicep armor for my left arm and two shoulder covers one on each arm. My chest was covered in a thick breast plat, while my back was covered with a back piece. My thighs were covered with greaves, while both my lower legs were covered as well. And lastly I made sure to grab some armor for my boots. I couldn’t go without getting armor for my feet now could I? But as I was about to exit the armory I saw a helmet that caught my eye. I looked like the very Achilles himself had worn the day he was killed by Paris. As I went to grab it I heard Vulcan call out to me “That’s not for you boy. You know who has worn that piece, so you must know I can’t part ways with it. So grab another helmet like it, and it shall be yours.” Was all his powerful voice calling out to me? I then saw a helmet that just blew me away, it had the very design that embedded into my old suit of armor. I walked up to it and picked it up to get a closer look, and sure enough it was the same design. I then placed the helmet under my arm and I walked out of the armory never to return. As the days pasted away Vulcan had lent me a large sword that was completely useless to train with. He had told me that my new sword would not be like that I have ever used before, nor would it work right unless I trained hard with a sword like it. So as the days turned into a week I soon realized that the sword I was using was getting lighter and lighter with each thrust I made with it. And upon the ninth day of forging Vulcan had finally finished the blade that defies the gods. “So boy, are you ready to hold the last blade to be held by your hands?” Asked Vulcan as he handed the still steaming blade to me. As I grasped the sword within my hands I could feel the pure power that flowed throughout it. It felt as if this sword was part of my body. “Hey Edge let me hold that sword?” Ask Rire as he walked up to me holding his hand out. I then looked to Vulcan to get his approval. As he shock his head in acceptance I placed the blade into Rire’s hands. But the very second I let go the sword fell straight to the ground taking Rire with it. “What in the fuck is wrong with this sword Vulcan? I can’t even hold it.” Shouted Rire as he tried his hardest to raise the blade from the ground. “Nothing is wrong with the sword, it’s just the fact you were not the chosen one to use it. Only Edge here can hold that sword. I made sure that not even Aries could use this sword against Edge.” Vulcan said in a laughing manner. “So what is the joyous occasion Edge? Have you finally figured out that I am far better than you could ever hope to be?” Asked a familiar cocky voice. “So Edge is this hot head a friend of yours, or is he trouble?” Asked Vulcan as he reached for his mighty hammer. “I don’t think so old man. My lord has been looking for you for far too long, hell he doesn’t even care if he sees you again, because he has found another master smith to fashion his mighty blade.” Spoke the voice as the room started to glow red. “So Aries wants me dead now that he knows I can no longer do him any good? Start man I must say, but I hope he knows it will be even harder to take this world now with my finally sword crafted.” Roared Vulcan as he grabbed his hammer and threw it into the center of the glowing mass over head. “Foolish old man, even I have the power to kill one as old as you…actually I think I will” The voice said as a massive fire ball crashed down upon Vulcan. “And now to finish you off, Dis Vorago Flamma, Hell’s abyss flame!” Shouted the voice as a black orb of fire crashed upon the older blast causing a massive explosion that sent me and Rire flying back. “Well Edge, it looks like it’s finally my time to join my friends and family. And before I forget, your swords name is Acies.” Was the last words I heard from Vulcan as the fireballs died out leaving nothing in there place, but a giant smoking hole. “So that’s all a god has to offer. How sad…now Edge it is your turn to die at my hand.” Said the voice with a mocking tone to it. “Why don’t you just get your sorry ass down here Exuro? So if anything we can finally have a battle worth you bragging about.” I called out to Exuro. “Alright, I’ll take you up on that offer, and since you have your own sword I don’t have to go easy on you. In other words I finally get to use my full strength.” Said the cocky Exuro as he appeared before me in the great chamber that was once Vulcan’s workshop. “Well then get ready for the battle of your life, for it shall be the last battle you get to be in.” I said as I readied myself with my new blade Acies. “Ah I see you have new armor and you even have a big sword now. This should be fun watching your one big sword fall against my two swords.” Exuro said as he pulled his two swords from his waist. “Kill that coward Edge, you can take him with ease.” Shouted Rire from behind me. “A coward? How dare you call me, a Elemental Lord a coward? I swear upon the blood I will shed here today I will enjoy killing you with my bare hands.” “Would you stop flirting with Rire and fight me already?” I said as I started to get impatient. “What in the hell was that for Edge?!” Screamed Rire as he threw a rock at me. “It’s what you get for not keeping your mouth shut the last time I fought this bastard.” I said mockingly as I stared Exuro down. “Fine by me Edge, killing you will probably be the highlight of my life. So let’s get my glory on the way.” Exuro said as he charged at me full force. As he got closer I felt my blade pulse with a force I had never felt before, and right when Exuro swung his blades upon me I swung my sword slicing right through both of his swords as if they were made of wood. “That’s…that’s not possible. My swords were crafted to cut anything, not to be cut themselves…this can’t be happening…” Said Exuro as he dropped the hilts of both his blades while he backed up in pure shock. “Nothing is impossible when you’re sword is made by the ultimate sword smith.” I said as I closed in on Exuro. “Aroth…please you must save me…I don’t want to die here, I can’t die here…” Was all Exuro said as he fell to his knees looking up to the top of the room. “Well Exuro, it would seem it is your time to die. I hope you burn in hell for al those you’ve killed.” I said to him as I raised my sword over my head readying myself for the final blow. “You fucking idiot. Do you think you could kill me so easily?” Exuro said as he clinched his right fist and drove a flaming punch into my gut sending me back a couple of feet. “That is low Exuro, you can not even die with honor. So I suppose I’ll have to kill you the slow way.” I spoke as I rushed towards him with my sword at my side. “Edge I will kill you with the very move that killed a god! Dis Vorago Flamma…” Was all he could say before my blade was cutting through his abdomen. “But…how…I’m an Elemental Lord? I can’t be killed by the likes of you…” Were Exuro’s last words as my sword came out of his back, but the very second my sword exited his body a massive explosion erupted from him surrounding me and caused the volcano to erupt in a massive display of destructive force. I soon awoke far from the catastrophe that was that battle. “Rire? Where are you Rire?” I shouted as I sat up on the ground. “I’m right here, now shut up I’m trying to sleep.” Was all he said as I looked at him lying near me. “How in the fuck did we get out of that? I was sure Rire would have died.” I said to myself as I stood up and walked over to a small brook that was near the spot in which we awoke. “I brought you here. I told that bastard not to attack you, so in return for his stupidity I saved your friend there, and I brought you both here to safety. But that does not mean we are friends, and it sure as hell does not mean I will not kill you the next time we fight.” Said a female voice behind me. As I turned around I saw the beautiful Aeris standing there in all her glory. Her beautiful dark brown hair, her lovely brown eyes that could case a man to lose himself, her shapely figure that just tempted the eyes. “Why are you looking at me like that?” She asked me with a confused look on her face. “No reason, I was just trying to understand why you did what you did.” I said as I turned around fast as to not let her see my reaction. “I already told you why I did that, now just forget about it.” She said as I heard the wind blow behind me as I turned around she was no where to be seen. “Ha, Edge…I saw that look. You do like Aeris! Man next time I see her I’m going to tell her you love her and how you want to fondle her breast and that you…” Was all that fool Rire could say before I shoved my fist into his face.
