The Most Impressive Victory Ever!
There I was cornered. My two kings against her five. Two little mice trapped by five fearsome cats. We just paced back and forth as they set up in formation. We were barely surviving, hardly scraping past them as one by one they attempted to attack. Until finally I saw it, a glimmer of sunlight appeared on her eighth move. The kings debated who would be the sacrifice and who would be the new ruler of the checkerboard. Each noble in their wish to save their companion, but only one could survive. In the end King Banana Fana proved that his martyrdom was the only chance they had at defeating the evil empire of Brussel Sprouts. He made his move, forcing the King Sprout to jump him. Leaving King Mango Tango open to jump Kings Stem, Brussel and Sprout. Now it was two kings to one. King Mango Tango danced around avoiding the ropes determined not to allow King Banana Fana’s sacrifice to be in vain. King Yuck lost his patience and made a foolish attempt to trap, King Mango Tango saw his opening, he moved right between the two of them forcing one to die. Now it was one-on-one, and King Mango Tango edged King Picky Icky onto the ropes. If King Picky Icky kept retreating he knew he would win. Just one more move, he thought. Finally with a shout of triumph it was over! King Mango Tango jumped King Picky Icky and I won!
