Zany Defeats the Ogre

The trampoline is visible from my bedroom window and as I was folding laundry I noticed what Quinton and Zany were up to and so I snapped a few photos of the action. Being the only girl and having four older brothers, Zany gets lots of first hand weapon training and experience with tactical maneuvers .  Zaynzley is a fierce little thing and is not afraid of skirmishes with villains twice or thrice her size.  She is excellent at hand to hand combat but can also wield a sword or ax with great finesse.  

One day Zany was enjoying a warm Arizona winter day when she heard there was a giant ogre taking over the village. She grabbed her trusty sword, Gladerial and ran to the arena where the ogre was wrecking havoc.  Without a bit of hesitation, Zany drew the attention of the ogre and then engaged him in battle.  

A mighty whack with her sword

Another whack on the ogre's ax hand and with a twist of her blade . . .

down comes the ogre

The ogre rolls across the arena in pain.  

Zany, polite conqueror, inquires after his well being

She secures his weapon as any good soldier would and marches away in victory!
