As Folke, Pasha, Colville, Zora and Brunilda made their way through the forest, they stumbled across a cave, but it wasn't the cave that caught their attention, it was the architeture surrounding it, there were tall walls made of wood, with a wooden gate and two tower next to the gate overlooking everything.
"What the hell?" Zora said with a confused look on her face, meanwhile Pasha was looking up at the tower, but then. "Get down on the ground." Pasha quickly said falling to the ground with everyone following soon after. "Did you see something Pasha?" Colville quickly asked.
Pasha replied in a hushed tone. "It's goblins, I managed to just barely see one on the top of the left tower and from what I could see they had weapons." Everyone went quiet, until Zora opened her mouth. "It's just goblins, we should be able to defeat them even if there is a lot of them." But Colville quickly replied with. "It's not the fact there's a lot of them, it's the fact that they have walls and weapons."
"But this is the perfect chance to kill monsters, the walls are made out of wood, a fire would destroy the wall and distract the goblins, but do we think they have a summon?" I asked looking at the others.
"It would explain it, but that also means they have a person with a potentially dangerous ability, but I think we have a better chance of winning since we can get the jump on the goblins since they haven't seen us yet." Pasha replied with.
Pasha looked hesitant, not because he didn't think we could do it, but it was something else, something I couldn't quiet tell why he was hesitating, but finally. "I will start a fire, Nade you got distract the goblins, the rest of you wait until either I give a signal to move in or if Nade needs help, but thats only if you are fine to be the distraction Nade." Pasha turned to me.
"I am fine with being the bait, just be fast since I don't want to get over run by the goblins." I replied with Pasha following up with. "Thank you Nade." Pasha quickly moved through the forest over to the right side of the wall. I quickly went a little away from the other and then ran out towards the gate. "Hey you stinky goblins come out here so I can kill you for xp!" I quickly yelled it with the goblins on top of the tower seemingly annoyed.
"Come on out here you idiotic goblins!" I continued to yell until finally a single goblin stepped out, it looked like every other goblin would, but this one held a dagger and had black hair, it had an expressionless face on it's face, but then. "What are you doing on my territory?" It spoke, it spoke like an actual human, it most be the summon for the goblins.
"I have no idea how you got past all of the traps and goblins in the forest, but you coming here will be your last mistake." It dashed towards me with it's dagger in it's hand, I quickly drew my sword and deflected it's attack.
But it quickly dashed to the sight and used it's small stature to slice my knee, it was so fast, I tried to slice it with my sword, but it quickly dodged it and jumped on to my back and began stabbing me on my back.
I managed to hit it with my elbow so it got off my back, my wounds quickly healed and I stared at the goblin. "How interesting, you got healing powers." The goblin began to smile for whatever reason. "Great observation you green snot." This guy was so annoying.
But at the corner of my eye I could see the fire spreading from the fire Pasha started, it was spreading so fast it was already touching the right tower next to the gate. "What about those walls?" But he didn't look back he just continued to smile.

"Well if they are about to die mind telling me your ability then?" This other self was interesting, but what kinda monster was he possessing to have such a big ego?
He didn't say anything back, he just continued to look at me with a smile, if there is a time to bluff it was now. It had to be a monster in the forest which limits it, I don't think any insect type monster would, and it's probably not any animal either, the only things I can think of are goblins and orcs, 50% chance of guessing it right then. "You are the true self of the goblin summon aren't you?" I gave a fake smirk to him with as much confidence as I could, his expression faltered for a moment.
"Aren't you a smart one, well it doesn't really matter if you know though, since you were just guessing weren't you?" He began to smile again with his stupid expression.
But what did I not get right then? What could it be, there was only one way of knowing. "Good talk, but I have to go goblin." I flew forward towards where Folke is, I could see the goblin following me, but he wasn't quiet as fast as I was.
I could see a fire in the distance with Folke fighting with a goblin, I landed behind Folke and whispered into his ear. "Watch out, I doubt it's only goblins here." As I finished whispering I could see the other true self land behind the goblin, he also whispered something, but to the goblin who ran into inside the walls and then into the cave.
Folke then motioned for everyone to come together. "The goblin with black hair should be the only threat here so let's just charge in." Zora said as soon as they came together. But as they were talking about what they should do I quickly walked through the gate and into the cave right after.
"I wonder what they got in here." I continued further in until I saw.
