Chapter 1: Chapter 1

As I split the wood for the winter I looked up at the sky as I wiped my brow and the chilly winter air whipped past my long red hair. "Jehanne!" "Oui, Papa?" "I need you to go into town and get me some butter, salted Pork, and flour." "papa compris!" "merci." I got on my trusty horse; Valentine and began to ride into town. That's when I came across some french soldiers harassing a young girl I quickly reared my horse and hopped off as I walked up to them one of them turned to me.

He said in a drunken slur "What the fuck you looking at Wench?" "You! You and your friends need to stop harassing this poor young girl." The captain laughed along with his cronies and he looked back at me. "Run along we're owed this for protecting you weak women from the English." The Captain shoved my shoulder. "So you think you're fine with doing this in the eyes of the Lord?" The captain turned slightly back to me and groaned.

"If there was really fucking god he wouldn't have let my friends die in this horrid 100 year war. Tell me, wench do you know what it's like to watch your closest friends die in your arms. They're begging for help and all you can do is give them a small semblance of peace as they gasping on that last breath of air!" "I'm sorry for the loss of our fellow soldiers but I cannot let what you're doing go unpunished." "Who are you going to tell? The Church? Here's a tid bit for you. The Church is fucking corrupt and isn't...."

The captain looked at his two friends dazed as he asked what just hit him. "The Wench." One of his friends replied. "I thought so." The captain fell to the ground as the other two surrounded me with their weapons drawn. "I won't allow you to speak ill of the church." "You're under arrest for assaulting an officer of the french military and a father of the church."

The two charged at me I quickly drew my small dagger and parried the first strike and grabbed the other soldier and shoulder charged him into a nearby boulder. I dashed forward and slid just underneath the spear thrust I quickly slashed the soldiers ankle causing them to fall to the ground they tried to reach for their secondary weapon but I grabbed the knocked out soldiers rapier and held it to the others throat. "Yield and take yourselves to the nearest hospital." "Damn girl... I yield."

I stabbed the rapier into the ground next to his head and watched as he grabbed his two friends and began to hobble away. I wiped my small dagger and put it back in my boot holster and walked over to the young girl. "Are you okay?" "Yes, thanks to you." I helped her up and noticed her pendant. "You're not from the local Catholic Church are you?" "Well, I am but..." The sister looked up at the sky and saw the sun was setting. "It's not safe here I have to get you to the safe house." As the sister began to run through town she kept her eyes to the where the sun was located as we ducked into a nearby alley I saw something fly overhead. "What was that?" I questioned. "Did you see a shadow?" "No it wasn't a shadow it was somebody."

"You might be..." That's when a loud screech could be heard I covered my ears that's when something picked me up and the next thing I knew I was up in the air feet dangling. "You are the messenger of the angels! Your fortune is short but your legacy is long. "By the grace of God why are you so ugly?" "What! You can see my true form!?" "True form what does that....Ahhhh!" As Jehanne began to fall she was quickly saved by two church members as the ugly lady hissed and vanished as two more church members arrived to check on Jehanne.
