Chapter 1 - Defence of the AncientsAnd to start you off nicely, I also put chapter two
The Frozen Throne, the source of pure evil, existing to claim all for its own was clearly simple task, except that The World Tree and it’s heroes with great powers stood in its way. To overcome The World Tree, The Frozen Throne engaged war upon them. The group of heroes who vowed to fight against the Frozen Throne called themselves The Sentinels and the group to deceive all the livings called themselves The Scourge, and now they begin their war. Sentinels, 5 heroes:
Furion the Prophet
Tiny the Stone Giant
Daelin the Admiral
Rikimaru the Stealth Assassin
And finally Raijin the Storm Spirit. Also The Sentinels hired a group of warriors who had great talent and had the will to stop The Frozen Throne for their own concern. The group consisted of Boush the Tinker, Huskar the Sacred Warrior, Ulfsaar the Ursa Warrior, Rhasta the Shadow Hunter, Shendelzare the Vengeful Spirit.
However to oppose this group of heroes that have vowed to destroy him, he had prepared his heroes as well. His heroes were
Mogul Kahn the Axe
Lion the Demon Witch
Darchrow the Enigma
Anub’arak the Nerubian Assassin
And Leoric the Skeleton King. To make the war even, he also had plans to recruit more to ensure his victory. The Frozen Throne recruited, Crixalis the Sand King, Razzil Darkbrew the Alchemist, Meepo the Geomancer, Gondar the Bounty Hunter and Leshrac the Tormented Soul.
The battle zone was rather simple. The Scourge’s and The Sentinels’ bases were at opposite, each protecting its master. The bases lead to 5 different watch towers each located at, top, upper-middle, middle, lower-middle, and bottom of the battlefield. But there was one watch tower between the base and the battlefield as well.
-At Sentinels’ Base-
Furion the leader of the Sentinel’s army is stating his objectives and roles of each hero, and how they’ll approach the enemy.
Furion – Now you all know our objective, our scouts report that the so-called Lich “King”s heroes are also the number of 10. It is rather surprising as there are would be warriors who still have their minds would be dedicated to the evil and it is unknown who the heroes are, but as far as I know, their leader is the legendary King Leoric. As of now they are probably discussing their dirty tricks to ensure their victory. Now, back to the topic, I want to have Rikimaru with me to advance the middle lane. With your ability to teleport, we can make a good team.
Rikimaru nodded.
Furion – Daelin and Tiny will advance the bottom lane, considering your strengths and abilities, I am certain that you will succeed.
Daelin and Tiny nodded in gratitude of his praise.
Furion – Boush and Rhasta will push the upper-mid lane, and in certain times, one of you will be needed to assist in other lanes, so make sure you’re always prepared.
Rhasta and Boush nodded.
Furion – Raijin and Huskar will destroy the top lane of the Scourge, in view of you two are both ranged, and far away from other lanes, it would be a simple task for you two, but be aware of the forest.
Immediately they nodded, then discussed with each other the possible ways to counter and prevent The Scourge attack over the top lane and came up with the idea of buying wards to keep an eye on the forest. As most of the lane belonged to The Scourge’s territory, they had to consider the landscape as an disadvantage.
Furion – Finally Ms. Shendelzare and Ulfsaar, will defend the lower-mid lane, and I suggest you to not advance, unless there are more of us, as the Scourge heroes can attack from both your up and down, so be careful.
They nodded and discussed to make sure they had the least flaws in their lane.
Furion – That’s it my fellow warriors, after this battle ends, I hope to see you all around this table, may Elune be with you.
The heroes bought healing salves, clarity potions, gauntlets, branches, mantles, slippers, tangoes, wards and everything they seemed useful to ensure they wouldn’t lose to them.
The war has started…
As Raijin and Huskar approached their tower, as they were waiting for their troops which are treants and druids to come they saw the defiled land of the
Scourge.
Raijin – Heard it’s your first war.
Huskar nodded
Raijin – Mine as well, never heard any affairs of the entire world, but I guess the news of the Lich King was too big to be ignored.
Huskar – I see, you scared, mon?
Raijin – No, not a bit. But having my powers drained to empower our units puts me off a bit, I’ve got to annihilate many of their troops and gain their souls to achieve my greatest skills, at the moment I think I can perform only one ability.
Huskar – Same here, mon. Everyone who go’ into the war gave most of deir powers to the units, so much power was needed to make sure de units won’ run out of energy, as you kno’ de war’s gonna last for days, mon. ‘nd de onl’ way to earn it back is gain the enemy’s soul.
Raijin – But don’t you think killing others for power makes us no different from them?
Huskar – I thought dat too, but Furion tol’ me, using deir souls for de good, ‘nd greater purpose is a different story. It’s like, using deir power to overcome dem.
Raijin – I see what you mean.
Their troops were approaching, so they nodded and got into the battlefield. Following the Scourge’s creeps, (ghouls and necromancers) were Leshrac wearing a mantle and circlet and Meepo with Ring of Regeneration and a few branches.
Huskar immediately put his wards over the hill, and between the two entrances from the forest to make sure there was no ambush. But it seemed empty, so they advanced, and fought burning the ghouls and shocking the necromancers.
However Leshrac had other plans, Meepo would earthbind the treants then Leshrac would split the earth itself to damage and stun the helpless treants. The top lane was evenly matched.

Chapter 2 - First BloodOkay, and chapter 3.
Rhasta and Tinker followed their treants to the field. But the atmosphere was odd. The Scourge troops have already arrived and fighting the Sentinels, and yet, the heroes haven’t come yet. They draw backed a little, and then Razzil showed up behind his ghouls.
Razzil – Too bad I’ll have to kill my fellow goblin.
Boush – Naaaw, mate. You got a long way to do that.
Razzil – In a way I’m proud of you Boush, you’re different, in fact I envy you for not having the lust for gold. The Scourge has promised me beyond the gold that I can make with my alchemy, that’s why I’m here.
Boush – True goblins lust for gold, but my lust is for this baby,
he patted his gear which was on his back.
Boush - And that's all I need. He said proudly.
Rhasta – Let’s back a lil’ mon, certainly de Scourge wouldn’t send one hero to oppose 2, it doesn’ feel righ’, let’s back to our Protector. Rhasta said in panic.
Razzil – Nope, too late fellas.
He turned red and unstable then sent a concoction towards Boush which made him out of conscious for few seconds, then out of nowhere Lion appeared and impaled them both with spikes coming from the ground.
From the back, Crixalis came and burrowed beneath them, also impaling them and severely damaging them. Lastly accompanying Crixalis, was Anub’arak, sent spikes underneath them, hitting Boush only.
Rhasta came into conscious looking at the danger, he saw Razzil was about to finish off Boush with his ogre. He drank from his bottle, gained strength and turned him into a mere frog.
Boush coming back saw the danger drank his healing salve and was running off, and just when he reached his tower, Crixalis burrow stroked him dead.
Seeing his fellow hero dead, he saw the tower throwing boulders at Crixalis, which seemed to damage him a lot, then he took his chance, turning Crixalis into a frog, limiting him from his escape, made him take extra attacks from the tower, and as the last boulder hit him, he laid dead as bloods coming out from all his limbs and mouth.
Trying to save their comrade, the Scourge attacked Rhasta and the tower to get their attention, but the effort was futile, they were too fragile at the moment to take on the tower, so they had too see Crixalis die in front of their eyes.
Rhasta severely injured took a sip from his bottle, regained strength and was staying near his tower waiting for 2 of them to leave the field. While he was sitting next to his tower watching over the 4 heroes, Rikimaru came out of the forest.
However having killed a hero, he immediately felt powerful, as if powers to cast another spell and ability just come to his body.
Rikimaru – Heard about Boush. Furion felt it, there was no-one on our lane, he sent me to accompany you. You might wanna refill your bottle; I saw no rune at north, so it should be at south.
Rhasta – Lion used it to ambush us, mon, apparently it was an invisibility one.
Rikimaru – I see, didn’t think it would turn out this bad. Gotta wait for 1 more hour to spawn again then?
Rhasta nodded
They saw Lion leave the area, going north. They knew he was going to Furion’s lane, but they trusted them as he was their leader.
Rhasta – You ready mon?
Rikimaru – Yes.

Chapter 3 - Unexpected BusinessOkay guys, first 3 chapters. Hope you all enjoy it, and if its anything crap or anything. Please tell me, I don't wanna waste my time doing somethint that's not interesting or anything. Thnx
At the bottom lane, having arrived at the tower very early, Tiny was sitting by a tree. Daelin was in the forest putting wards. Just as he entered the field, he saw a pass to the other side of the forest.
Daelin – Didn’t see that entrance on the map…
A hand tight on the hilt of his sword, he entered the other side. Without going any deeper, he saw 2 badly shaped buildings. Almost abandoned. He examined it and entered.
Daelin – Hello?
He heard someone laugh. He drew his sword, which then shined by the energy of water wave.
Daeilin – Don’t wanna make this places’ condition much worse. So whoever it is, come out.
A goblin came out.
Goblin – How can I help you sir?
The Admiral was shocked.
Daelin – Who are you? What are you doing here?
Goblin – I’m just a mere trader, who benefit from wars. You see, in wars, the soldiers can’t replenish and improve their equipments in a battlefield without a courier. So, I hide my business near the battlefield, and I serve BOTH sides.
Daelin – So we all benefit from it. Quite simple, you must be very successful.
Goblin – Sometimes depending on the people I meet, it’s always different. So care to take a look at my stock?
Daelin – I’ll be back in a second
He walked out and he went to Tiny who was smiling from the spinning flower in his hands.
Daelin – Tiny, come I wanna show you something before the battlefield is busy, come here.
Tiny got up and followed Daelin, and they went to the “store”.
The goblin was wiping its products, grinning.
Daelin – Interesting huh? And here I thought Largeras was the only one who benefits from wars.
Tiny – Yup
The goblin looked at the ring that was on Tiny’s finger.
Goblin – Hey little fella, can I borrow that ring for a second?
Tiny gave the goblin a stare for a second as he was almost shorter than the goblin at his current condition and then gave the ring. The goblin put the ring on white mask, and it shone for a second, then it was something very different. The ring was shining. The goblin gave the ring back to Tiny.
Goblin – On the house
Tiny – Thanks
As he felt more armour protecting him, and also felt mana regeneration. Daeling also felt the same.
Daelin – Considering the aura, Ring of Basilius?
The goblin grinned and nodded.
Daelin – Why’d you do that?
Goblin – I like ya guys. You’re the first “customer” not to trash the place and insult the products or steal the products, come any time ya want, the store is 24/7 open.
They nodded, then heard the horn blow.
Daelin – It’s time.
Goblin – By the way guys, there’s my cousin who’s also in business at the other side, and your friends there can benefit from it as well. See ya and good luck.
The goblin gave them thumbs up.
Daelin – Thanks.
Just as they got out of the store and looked west, they saw the scourge units with its heroes, who were, Leoric and Mogul Kahn.
Daelin – It’s gonna be tough big guy, the leader of the Scourge army himself is gonna be here.
He looked down at Tiny and smiled which was returned by a smile. They both went to the field with their units and started fighting.
