Sorry, I AGAIN forgot to post this story yesterday  so here it is. Next week I'll publish the first segment in a story about  the First Crusade! So stay posted (No, wait, that's what I've got to do!! :))

The Archer Scouts Segment Two: The Stroke Of Doom

 The First volley of fire from Fort Flavouring brought down about 2 dozen grasshoppers. Then firing individually, another 100 were shot out of the sky but to a commander of a thousand that was of little account. Then some of the most savage fighting any of the scouts had ever seen broke out. Mathew’s battle hammer combined with Fred’s small sword and James, in full battle fury, danced around, swinging his axe. Gordon Bill and Edward fell in the melee, yelling war cries and swinging their battle weapons. The remaining 6 scouts retreated to put their backs against the wall and fire off arrows before the storm enclosed them for the last time.

Suddenly a horn blast broke the air. Buzzing filled everyone’s ears like flies on a hot day. The air filled with daring and debonair dragonflies while the roof of the pantry crawled with brave ant infantry. Percy had come. The small company of Toy soldiers formed a arrowhead, forcing their selves though to where the Archer Scouts were taking their stand. For a full half hour the combined armies of ant, dragonfly and toy hacked at the army of grasshoppers and finally defeated them. 45 Road Train Drive was free. 

Thomas was slightly dozy after the combat but a new concoction by a teddy bear nurse took it all away. Gordon Bill and Edward were put in hospital under the best care possible, with the whole hospital system under stress since the Jill and the entire Doll committee refused to help with the post war clean ups saying that had they been consulted all this would never of needed to have been done. Sir Jimuel was inserted as King and a loyal detachment of elite ant axemen formed his bodyguard. Sure enough Gordon Bill and Edward awoke on the 6^th day from the battle, rather groggily but were guaranteed to be fine in a week. The Archer Scouts were given the role of guarding the house from future invasions from any foe.
