Medieval battle against a monster

Date: 7/15/2018

I'm at a manor that was abandoned and dusty in a room with a long dining table and a white marble fire place. I climbed up the massive structure and saw mini puzzles built into the fireplace: Locks and keys, photographs, small buttons and knobs. I remember screwing up once and it reset to when I entered the room. I somehow was pulled by a force off the wall, hit the floor and ran outside. There was a medieval courtyard at the bottom of some damp cobblestone steps. In the courtyard people were dressed as soldiers, running and screaming. I raced down the steps and at the bottom I saw a fat man in a chair dressed as a king. He told me to stop the monster. I was like umm.... aight I realised I had armor on me and a sword sheathed. I looked at the back of the yard and saw a man in a robe. He had slightly yellow skin with sharp eyes and long straight black hair. That's the monster? Ok then I guess. I went up to him and slashed him across his chest. No blood came out and he just furrowed his brows as if he's being pestered by a fly. I gave a nervous laugh and smiled at him before running back to the king. I stood there watching him backhand soldiers, sending them flying. "Oh yeah I'm a werewolf ok" Made total sense and I began stripping the plates of armor of me. Everyone stared at me in confusion, some in anger too thinking I was giving up. I dropped the belt that held my sword and jumped a little before running up to the monster again. During the sprint I was willing myself to change into the werewolf form. I reached the man again and realised... "Oh...my mistake I'm not a werewolf" I just ran up to him again unarmed for no reason. Even he seemed stunned in confusion. I sorta bowed in apology giving that stupid nervous laugh again. He turned back to a soldier that had his sword readied. I looped around the monster picking up a corpse's battle-axe. It dragged against the floor it was so heavy, making a god awful sound. I ran faster and faster till it lifted and I swung it with the momentum I gathered at the monster. It cut an arm off at the shoulder. The soldier behind me wasted no time severing the other and kicked the monster's chest making him stagger backwards. I spun around and took the monsters feet making him fall and the soldier triumphantly cut off his head. Everyone cheered, the king gave a hearty laugh like Santa Claus. I exhaled in relief that I'm not dead. Then I saw the body parts start shaking. No... That's not fair. I saw the arm slowly connect with the shoulder, then the other. I rushed to the body with my hands out to get the head. Then it plugged into the torso just as I reached him. I let out a frustrated groan and decided to take his feet and ran to the king. I saw the monster slowly rise and look straight at me. Oops. He started limping towards me but still looked as fierce as ever. I hid his feet behind my back and looked as innocent as possible. He towered over me and pierced me with his gaze. I gripped harder onto his feet and tried to keep eye contact. It felt like I was a school girl being told off. His lip twitched and I knew he knew I had it. I looked down and brought one of the feet out to give to him. He didn't take it, just kept staring with his scolding eyes. I gave a shy smile. He huffed a little and took his foot back, he leaned in a few inches from my face trying to read me. Haha for some reason I wanted to kiss his nose but I didnt, just gave him puppy eyes. He backed away and limped back to the end of the yard. I could breathe again and I started making plans in my head to bury the foot somewhere so I can defeat him again in his weaker form.
