Chapter 17: Damsel in Distress "Hey c'mon Viscen, buddy! We can work this out. Let me explain..." Duel began to plead while Viscen's arrow followed his every move. "This is a princess here that I had to capture from that castle, ditch my partner, fight Beefer, and tie her up. All of those things were NOT easy by any means! Princess GameQueen here could mean a lot of ransom rewards for you and me." Duel winked. "What about me?" Hawk Eye broke in. "What about you?" Duel countered and laughed. Viscen couldn't help but also throw in a few quick chuckles. "GameQueen you say? I never really liked her to begin with." Viscen turned his aim from Duel to aim at the immobile prisoner. "Back at ya, you fu..." GameQueen angrily responded, but Duel covered her mouth and stepped in front before she could finish. "That's not very princess-like." Hawk Eye pointed out. "Hey, she's a princess all right. Now are you guys going to go in on this with me or what?" Duel crossed his arms strongly to close his offer. "Do you think we're idiots? You already told us you ditched your other partner, so you're probably going to do the same with us." Viscen answered without hesitation. "Umm...." Duel scratched his head trying to think of something quick, while creeping one hand slowly to his katana just in case. . . . Jial stared at the glow of the giant stalchild for a few moments and simply stood there in the dark. "Gah, what am I doing?" Jial asked himself and broke his gaze. He dismissed all previous thoughts and the allure of veering off course to investigate the phenomenon and turned towards the castle. Torches lit either side of the drawbridge so one could easily find his way across, had the bridge been lowered. "Curses! They raise the bridge overnight. I'll have to climb my way up unfortunately... I pray this doesn't cost me too much time..." Jial quickly began analyzing every obstacle in his way to try and gain access within the walls of Hyrule Town. . . . --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

"I say we kill him!" Hawk Eye's patience ran out fast on Duel's crumbling excuses. "How about we go for a cheese steak? GAH!" Duel's last proposal was answered by an arrow from Viscen, which Duel luckily was able to deflect away at the last moment with his katana. "Deflect this!" Hawk Eye screamed while he charged his hand and shot a burst of electricity. "HIRRRAH!" Duel swung his katana as hard as he could and seemed to defy all science and actually cancel out the lightning with his sword. "That was ****in rigged!" Viscen complained. "No matter, watch this!" Hawk Eye shot another burst of lightning at Duel, which he was able to dodge this time, but followed up by throwing his new dagger afterwards. The dagger found its mark and dug into Duel's right shoulder. "Ow... You think this is enough?!" Duel angrily shouted back up, and pulled the dagger out of his flesh. He leaned back to show off to them that the wound was not very deep and only resulted in a few small drips of blood sliding down his torso. "What the hell?" Hawk Eye looked on in shock as both of his attacks had now failed. "Mwahah!!! I am... Ow... ow....OW!!!" Duel whined in pain as Viscen took this chance to barrage Duel's right arm with 4 arrows. "Next one going for the head!" Viscen wasted little time and fired another arrow. Duel waved the fan of arrows stuck in his arm to steer this one away at least. "This shouldn't take too long..." Viscen grinned to Hawk Eye. . . . Jial's fingers scratched and scraped the top of the concrete walls while he struggled and pulled as hard as he could to get a leg over. He earned himself a huge sigh of relief as his leg flew over and he was now straddled over the wall separating the field and the town. Unfortunately, while resting and staring down at the wall he had just conquered, a strong night breeze came around and toppled him to the other side fully. Jial didn't even have time to fear having himself splatter onto pavement, because he crashed down onto a rooftop. He was alive, but his back was now riddled with pain. "Hold... on... I'm... coming..." Jial uttered out in a daze while his eyes stared into the night sky and he passed out of consciousness. . . . --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

"Hiyaaahhhhh!!" Hawk Eye flew down at Duel to attack, but Duel was still too strong and was able to swat him away into the rocks nearby. He anticipated a follow up attack from Viscen, but Viscen was nowhere to be found. "Oh damn damn damn..." Duel whispered to himself while becoming suddenly very nervous. He knew morning would come soon, but it wasn't soon enough for him with Viscen having darkness to utilize. "Up there!!" A surprising warning came from GameQueen and Duel was able to locate Viscen leaping from atop the boulder on the pathway with his sword. Duel held out his katana firmly to block the attack and locked into battle with him. "You stupid *****! I thought this guy kidnapped you!" Viscen scolded the princess while struggling with Duel. "I'm sorry! I just got startled!" "Hey, this guy just threatened to shoot an arrow into you!" Duel reminded her. "Oooh, good point. I take it back, you're a jerk!" GameQueen spat at Viscen, but it didn't quite reach. Shortly after, Duel easily overpowered Viscen's sword and knocked him backwards. Duel lunged forward with a stab attack, but Viscen had the clear speed advantage and Duel's sword lodged itself into the boulder Viscen previously stood in front of. "Now would be a great time for some back up!" Viscen hinted to Hawk Eye, who seemed to be still a bit dazed from colliding with the rocks. Viscen could see that Duel was growing weaker and weaker ever so slightly as blood seeped out of his arrow wounds. He watched as Duel retrieved his katana and sliced off the ends of the arrows so at least all he would have is stubs protruding from his arm. Duel assaulted Viscen with numerous swipes of his sword, but Viscen was too fast and easily evaded them or used his own sword to bat them away. Viscen was clearly stalling until Duel wore himself down and the plan seemed to be working to a tee. With every swing Duel took, a spray of his blood drizzled the ground and stained the dirt. Duel could see he wasn't getting anywhere by trying to use his sword, so he tried to grab Viscen instead and actually managed to have him in his grasp for a moment, but Viscen wrenched himself away and continued to use his sword to keep Duel at a distance. Viscen seemingly now was able to dance around the drained Duel and knocked his katana out of his hand on the next sword clash. "Hey, what I miss?" Hawk Eye rejoined the battle as Viscen stood over Duel, who was down to a knee. "Nice of you to join and contribute, lazy ass." "Just slice off his head and be done with it. Then we can do as we like with the girl." Hawk Eye glanced and winked at GameQueen. --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

"Are you... sure... you don't... want that... cheese steak??" Duel grunted out amidst his heavy breathing. "Shut the **** up about your damn cheese steak!" Viscen hollered, raised his sword, but then was sent flying to the ground with a brief burning pain. Hawk Eye quickly spun around to see Yeti standing on a hill nearby with a fireball in his hand. "Duel is mine!" "If you love him so much, come and get him!" Hawk Eye answered back. Yeti jumped down to their level and threw his fireball while doing so. Hawk Eye hovered up into the air for it to soar harmlessly under him and countered with a bolt of lightning that nailed Yeti directly. Hawk Eye cackled with Yeti slumping down and sizzling a bit, then approached him with lightning flowing between both of his hands in the air. Yeti looked down and could see the ground illuminating as he drew closer towards him. In desperation, Yeti summoned as much fire into his hands and engaged Hawk Eye's with his own. A ripe burning smell enveloped the immediate area and the darkness was vanquished from the intense light generated from the two of them. Duel, still bleeding from his arm, left his katana on the ground and saw this chance to score a cheap hit on both of them. He mustered what he had left to leap at them and rain a heavy blow on both contenders with his fists. The two were sent sprawling hard to the ground, smoking and very vulnerable. Duel sat there between them, wondering now what to do. . . . "Did you miss me?" GameQueen heard a male voice from behind her and swiveled her neck to see it was her beloved Jial! "OH, you don't know the half of it!" GameQueen grew a big smile on her face while Jial picked up Duel's katana and sliced her ropes. "C'mon, it's not safe here. We must get out of here and maybe we can regroup with Drake." Jial explained while cutting the last of the ropes. They shared a brief hug and kiss that Jial rushed through and tried to get her to run as fast as she could. "I knew you'd come." "I don't think now is the time..." Jial began. "EEP" GameQueen squealed out as an arrow whizzed by them and plunged into the ground. Another one flew dangerously close to their joined hands and forced them to release. Their momentum sent them both tumbling to the ground, while Viscen caught back up with them. "Knight in shining armour? I think not." Viscen prepared another arrow aimed at them. -------- User Interaction Point: Duel, Jial Duel: Who are you going to kill? 1. Yeti 2. Hawk Eye 3. Other option? Jial: What now? 1.

DISCLAIMER: This is not the real chapter. This is to be taken as a What If? scenario. DC said I could give you something to chew on while he's out, so here it is. I would like some real comments about it, if at all possible. Hopefully this will be a servicable distraction until DC returns. Chapter 17.5 - What the ****?! Duel glances at the two torched and downed opponents, debating on which would be the easier kill. Hearing Viscen's declaration, the distracted fighter begins edging away from his fallen opposition, yanking out the arrows slowly. Watching both Yeti and Hawk Eye warily for signs of movement, Duel tries to find his katana, only to see Jial wielding it. "Damn him, when the hell did he arrive?! And why is he protecting HER?" Jial's eyes narrow as he watches Viscen carefully, the silver haired wraith nervously handling the katana. Turning to GameQueen, he hands her the blade, his sapphire eyes locking with her soft brown orbs. "Keep out of this for now. If you see an opening, gut him!" Turning to face Viscen, Jial sprints forward, his enhanced speed turning him into a small blur. Trusting his sharp senses, Viscen fires off two arrows, one narrowly missing Jial, the other nailing his left arm. Dashing to the side, Viscen fires off another pair, both landing square in Jial's back, halting the hasty assault. Viscen's mellow voice breaks the eerie calm. "Not bad. You're fast, but not fast enough. I've got you beat kid, you're just not aware of it yet." Yeti staggers to his feet, a quick glance revealing a still unconscious Hawk Eye, and an absent Duel. Shaking off the fatigue, he begins to scour the area for his traitorous partner, a ball of fire sizzling in each of his palms. "C'mon out, ya chicken! I need to fry you up, I know some hungry people!" Spinning around, Yeti watches a shadow skim along the wall, almost unnoticed by his senses. Lobbing a fireball in front of the shadowy blob, Yeti grins as it stops moving and begins swearing. Lunging forward, he wraps his left arm around Duel's neck, the fireball contained in his right hand looming over his face. "Any last words, coward?" Duel grins and swings his right leg backward, connecting with a very sensitive part of Yeti's anatomy. As he turns around, Duel grabs Yeti's right arm, shoving it into the wounded area, a satisfying sizzling sound filling the air. Stepping over to where Yeti is wide eyed and pissed, Duel lifts his foot up and slams it down, pulping Yeti's skull. "Never forget to watch your jewels, or somebody WILL break them." Drake frowns as he watches the castle come into view, his current situation still rather bleak despite his new hardware firmly tucked in his waistband. Growling in annoyance, his eyes light up as he spots a rather large owl fly past. Reaching out, he snags one of the owl's legs and is surprised to hear an indignant voice squawk back. "Just who do you think you are, latching onto the mighty FaeryBen's leg! Let go, I say!" Holding on tightly to the leg, Drake drags out his new pistol, aiming it at the obnoxious owl's beak. Breaking out in a grin, his arrogant tone is almost devoid of bravado, instead replaced by determination. "Look here, feather face. You're going to take me to the castle, or I am going to blow your idiotic brains out, and take my chances with becoming a part of the terrain. Got me?" Suddenly realizing that HIS options were limited, FaeryBen begins flying to the castle switfly, hoping to dispose of his rather rude cargo while he still had the ability to do so. "Ok, ok, I'm going." --- The more things change, the more they stay the same... MLH - I will never stop loving you. [aX] |

Jial Silverthorn Posted 5/15/2008 2:11:44 PM message detail |
Jial frowns as he pulls out the arrows in his back and arm, his sturdy skin making the barbed points only sting when removed rather than double him over in pain. Shaking away the momentary fatigue, he again sprints towards Viscen, watching the bow carefully. Shifting to one side, he grins as an arrow goes wide. Seeing Viscen grab his last arrow, Jial puts on one final burst of speed, grabbing Viscen's hands. Latching onto the wooden shaft, Jial manages to split it in half before jumping back. "There, no more arrows for you, chump. Now it's my turn to break your face!" Viscen smirks as he calmly draws his sword, his eyes spotting Hawk Eye moving out of the corner of his eye. Settling into a defensive stance, the wary fighter tries to bide his time with further banter, hoping to sway the odds. "I fail to see how you will accomplish that. I have a sword, and you are bleeding, so realistically, you will fail in your prediction." Spotting Jial below him, Drake shifts the handgun back into his waistband, unhooking his sledgehammer from his belt. Idly swinging it like a pendulum, Drake arcs it overhead, slamming it into the side of FaeryBen's head. As the motionless owl begins to fall, Drake chuckles. "Remember when I said I wouldn't kill you? That was a lie." Bracing for the long fall, Drake hurls the large hammer towards Jial, deciding that the idiot could explain things later, but as a corpse he would be useless. Curling his body into a ball, Drake prepares for the jarring impact, only to feel his feet crash into somebody's head a few feet off the ground. With his impromptu splattering halted, Drake tumbles onto the grass, Hawk Eye similarly hitting the ground. Shaking off the cobwebs, Drake hauls out his gun and points it at Hawk Eye. "I don't know who you are, but if anyone is going to kill that worthless pile of meat, it'll be ME!" Jial's jumps back as the sledgehammer impacts the ground in front of him. Picking it up off the ground, he hefts the unwieldy weapon and grins as he faces Viscen. Cracking his neck, Jial is both relieved and annoyed that Drake interfered. Pointing the head of the hammer at Viscen, Jial's stance opens up as he prepares for the inevitable brawl. "Well, I wasn't expecting the furball to show up, but I'm not going to ignore the help either. Now then, what was that about my prediction failing?" Duel groans as he hides behind a tree, watching the two sides square off. Cradling his burnt arm, he debates on whether an ambush or a tactical retreat would be in order. Looking around, he swears again as Jial seems to have discarded his katana, and is instead wielding a sledgehammer now. --- The more things change, the more they stay the same...

Chapter 18: One for the Ages Part 1 With wind and dust swirling all around, the combatants stumbled around seeking out targets to fight with, not bothering to wait until the conditions cleared up. Despite the temporarily poor visibility that blanketed the battlefield, Sileo was able to detect his prey with only minor difficulty. He stalked them for a brief moment, drew his daggers and then struck! Nikon reacted just in time while catching a glance at Sileo's figure emerging from the dust clouds to raise his sword in defense. The two stealthy warriors locked blades and drew their faces close together. "This time, you won't escape alive." Sileo whispered to Nikon's face. "If that is so, I'll have to at least take you with me!" Nikon responded while staring behind the shadow of Sileo's hood and into his cold eyes. Just as one of them was about to gain an advantage in the struggle, the hulking figure of Mad Kowulluh intervened and wrapped a hand around each of their necks. "Haha! I sensed you hiding around here, but I may as well take care of this ninja guy too!" Kowulluh referred to Nikon. With the dust finally settling down from the giant stal-child's roar, HandofThrawn wiped his glasses quickly and scanned the area for who he was looking for. He located them easily since they were already fleeing the scene within the first moments! HandofThrawn gave them credit in his mind for attempting to utilize the confusion for a quick escape, but he would not allow their plan to succeed. The escapee pumped his legs and fists hard, running as fast as he could away from the action and was too busy running to sense a stealthy side approach from HandofThrawn. "Where are you going, JJ?" HoT calmly asked JJ after tackling him to the grass. "I left my oven on and forgot to feed my dogs." JJ answered quickly. "Your smart ass remarks won't do you much good in the afterlife!" Thrawn pressed one forearm across JJ's chest while holding his short sword in the air, pointed directly at JJ's head. JJ grabbed hold of Thrawn's arm preventing the sword from moving forward. HoT pushed and grunted as hard as he could, but JJ's super strength far overwhelmed his own. "Quick, I'll go attack JJ while you get Nikon!" Bane laid out the plan for Rob and darted off to JJ. Rob turned to advance on Nikon but was immediately confronted by Tithenion, already in his martial stance. "Ready for another round?" Tithenion smiled. "I'd rather not..." "You don't have a choice, damn it!" Tithenion ended the brief exchange of words and shoved a hard palm into Rob's face. Rob staggered backwards, remaining on his feet, then readied his own fighting stance. Rob swung a high kick at Tithenion, but it was ducked under and countered with a blistering punch combo to Rob's chest and abdomen, finished with a jumping kick to the chin. Rob landed hard on his back with no time to relax, since Tithenion was already descending from above to maintain pressure. Tithenion connected only with the ground, after Rob rolled out of the way, then dashed towards him for another follow up. Rob was ready this time and fired a leg straight up while still on the ground to strike Tithenion's face. Rob kipped up off the ground expertly and hit a combo that drove Tithenion back now. The two of them now backed off and stared at one another in their respective stances once more, acknowledging that this battle was quite even. --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

Sgt. Bofa now was able to see clearly with the dust no longer hindering his vision and saw his partner lifting two people off the ground by their throats. "Yo ho! This should be a sea breeze!" Bofa eagerly exclaimed while approaching, but was forced to stop while the stal-child finally took ground shaking steps and lowered its head to the ground. Bofa could only watch while its head, shaped similarly to a carnivorous dinosaur's, opened and closed its jaws on the three of them. The stal-child's head resumed an upright position, removing itself from ground level, revealing Crow who was approaching Kowulluh from the opposite side. "I was going after that assassin guy, I swear!" Crow explained, yet drew out his spear regardless. "Oh I believe ye, but ye still gotta die anyway!" Sgt. Bofa cackled to himself and charged at Crow haplessly. Crow was prepared and poked his spear to keep the pirate at bay. "Yarr, if I had my harpoon here, I'd... Oooh!" Bofa talked a bit too much and Crow stabbed his spear into his stomach. "Yaa...arrr... Ever... been in... a ...WHIRLPOOL!?" Sgt. Bofa cried out and firmly grabbed one end of the spear and began to spin his body slowly. Crow didn't like where this is going and wrapped his hands tightly around his end of the spear. With the spearhead still dug into his body, Bofa gained momentum and spun around repeatedly with Crow on the other end suspended in mid air! Both Nikon and Sileo lay on the ground inside the Stal-child's mouth where his tongue would usually lie, then stood up to see Mad Kowulluh struggling and holding open the beast's mouth with his arms and legs. The vertical clearance with his support was barely 5 feet, so neither of them could stand up normally. Nikon didn't seem to care and resumed his attack on Sileo. "You fool! That ogre of a man is extremely vulnerable! Let us eliminate him!" Sileo advised while evading sword swipes. "I don't want him. I want YOU!" Nikon answered. Sileo continued to back up until there was no room left and was forced to turn around and leap down along the spine and into the monster's body frame. Nikon followed, initiating a game of cat and mouse within the rib cage of the Stal-child. The two of them ran along the ribs, flipping and weaving between them while looking to attack the other. "Thanks for your gratitude, fellas." Kowulluh groaned as he watched them duel, released his hold, then immediately dove down to avoid having the roof of the mouth close down on him. Safe from being shredded by the outer rim where the teeth lay, Kowulluh began to crawl his way to the throat himself. He leaped down the body of the Stal-child and landed below the two of them, on the creature's pelvic bone. Mad Kowulluh looked up to see the two of them running sideways along the ribs, still chasing one another. A light caught his attention and entered his eye from the side, he turned to see the sunrise on the horizon was nearing. The Stal-child's arms were slapping at its ribs, trying to rid itself of the annoyances from within, but Kowulluh could tell it was weakening since he noticed the bones were slowly beginning to yellow. --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

HandofThrawn and JJ continued to struggle on the ground over the short, despite the rumbling of the giant Stal-child nearby. JJ was just about to gain an upper hand and force the sword away completely, until a second set of hands began to push the sword towards his face as well. Bane was now standing beside them and trying to help Thrawn deliver a fatal blow! Their combined strength now only resulted in a complete stalemate with JJ's, rendering the sword virtually motionless in the air. "I...suggest you... attack with... your own weapon... Errgh!" Thrawn grunted out to his unlikely accomplice. "Good idea." Bane released his grip and pulled out his sword while his other hand shone with electricity. Just as JJ overpowered Thrawn and forced him to withdraw his attack, Bane grabbed hold onto the hilt of Thrawn's short sword, shocking Thrawn. In one swift move, Bane pulled the sword out of Thrawn's hand for himself and plunged his sith sword into Thrawn's chest. HandofThrawn flopped over in a pool of blood, while JJ rose to his feet and faced Bane who held two swords now with lightning flickering through them for effect. "They aren't quite dual lightsabers, but they'll have to do." Bane remarked. . . . "Poor Thrawn, that bastard just offed him." DC said sadly. "This action is fantastic!" Mario jumped with excitement from his seat. "Bravo." Deity noted nonchalantly. "Am I drunk again or are there that many guys fighting at once?" Meeptroid groaned while wiping his eyes. "Both." Mario quickly answered. The crew resumed watching the battle on their screens, but were forced to turn around as a loud whizzing sound echoed behind them. "Hey DC, I want my payment." Tatl had teleported to their ship and demanded. "Oh... hey you. Um, yeah about that...." DC began to stutter. "I want my payment!!" Tatl ordered once more and approached slowly. "Now hey, let's negotiate." DC and his guards stood up now from their seats. "NOW!!" Tatl shouted and waved an arm that sent the guards flying in multiple directions, while pinning DC to the electronics behind him. "Oh damn..." DC looked at Tatl with a dead serious look on her face. ------- User Interaction Point: Bane, Mad Kowulluh, JJ, Sileo, Nikon (private answers) "Everyone else" (if desired) Bane: 1.

Chapter 19: Love Hurts "Leave the princess out of this! She has nothing to do with us!" Jial shouted while picking himself and Gamequeen off the ground. "Not true, her presence here makes her a variable just as much as those rocks or a mere pile of garbage. I shall treat her no differently, ha." Viscen put a smug look on his face while Jial grit his teeth and turned to the female. "Here, take this sword, run away and defend yourself at all costs." Jial ordered while handing her the katana. "I shall not stray far and will aid you in any way I can." Gamequeen drew her face in closer and looked deep into his eyes as he prepared for battle. She lay her hand around his neck and hey almost touched lips to kiss, except yet another arrow from Viscen whizzed between their noses to separate them. "Hey look at that, I'm getting pretty good at this!!!" Viscen announced. Jial was less than pleased and waved the lady to leave the scene. "Your disrespect has earned my ire and you shall not escape unpunished!" Jial proclaimed. "My version says that you're ****ed and don't even have that friend of yours to help you out." Viscen answered. "He... will be here soon!" Jial was very unsure of his words however. . . . "This is not good at all..." Drake stared at the ground of the village that was growing larger and larger as he plummeted towards it. He began to have some inappropriate fun while spinning in the air and pretending he was actually flying. "Whheeeee!!! HEY!" Drake stopped in the middle of a rotation to see an owl flying towards him, not too far away. The curious animal drew in closer towards the falling Drake and came within reach of Drake's arm. "Oh my god, help me you feathered bastard!" Drake was running out of time, ripping and clawing at the birds talons and wings, desperately trying to get a grip onto the bird. The owl hooted furiously, now regretting that it had investigated the mysterious sighting. The owl was now finding it difficult to flap its wings to stay in the air with Drake's interference and slowly began to descend to the ground. Drake was grabbing now at the bird's face, neck and any other part he could grab onto in his frantic mentality. The owl concentrated now on using its talons to try and fend off his extra passenger and successfully scratched him up a good bit. With his feet swiping furiously and Drake struggling in the air, the owl barely was keeping them in flight at all and they fell faster now to the ground. Luckily for them, they were already just above the roofs of the houses of Kakariko Village and both of them tumbled to the ground near the tall tree at the entrance. "What? I'm alive!! I made it!" Drake patted all around his body to verify this and was amazed at his survival. His attention turned once again to the owl, who was just getting off the ground too, though he looked shaken up. "Which is more than I can say for you, you stupid bird!!" Drake angrily grabbed his sledgehammer, charged at the owl and tackled it to the ground. The owl was helpless now, began to hoot repeatedly and loudly. The sounds seemed to echo and reverberate throughout the entire village. Drake didn't seem to care, continuing his assault on the bird, but was interrupted as chickens began to holler in response to the owl's distress call. One by one, cuckoos sounded from every part of the village and Drake's eyes widened while a mob of chickens slowly formed in front of him. --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

"I was... just playing with him. We do that all the time, me and owl buddy there?" Drake feigned sincerity as best as he could, but it was poor and couldn't even fool chickens. With one more owl hoot, the chickens sprung into action, some flying while others hopped towards Drake. "OH ****!!!" Drake turned and ran as fast as he could to the exit he saw Jial taking. He considered using his gun to fend them off, but turned and saw way too many to shoot at. He also saw they closed in surprisingly fast and engulfed him in no time. Passing villagers only saw a flurry of white feathers in a mass on the ground while Drake struggled beneath it all amidst feathers, beaks and claws. "MY GOD!!! AHHH! HEY STOP TAPPING ME THERE!! EEEEE!!" Drake screamed as he was being tortured by the owl defenders and managed to turn himself onto his stomach, then slowly crawl. At every chance he got, he swatted his arm in any direction to hit any chickens in the vicinity, but it only helped for a moment. He felt cuts opening and being jabbed all over his body, until he gathered all his strength and knelt onto a knee, then to his feet. He screamed once more, covered his head and blindly ran forward wildly. Upon nearing the village boundaries, the chicken mob dissipated and Drake continued fleeing. His troubles weren't over yet though, as with his head still covered, he reached the steps leading out and tripped down the entire first flight. His blood left spots all over the white steps until he finally rolled to a stop on the ledge just before the second flight. He lay there cut, bruised, breathing heavily and coughing out feathers occasionally. . . . Yeti slowly awoke from the hit he received and was shocked into being fully awake by a blast of water being draped over his face. Hawk Eye stood above him with a now empty bottle in his hand. "Wakey wakey, flamer." Hawk Eye snapped his fingers and tossed the bottle aside. He picked Yeti up by his shirt and Yeti quickly placed his hand on Hawk Eye's chest to ignite it. "Nice try, but I doused your hands in the water before you woke up. Your body responded with some water of its own too, and that was rather unpleasant." Hawk Eye directed Yeti to his crotch to see a small dark spot. Yeti was furious now and swung at Hawk's head, but it was blocked and greeted with a small shock. "What happened to Duel?!?" Yeti demanded as he struggled in Hawk Eye's grasp. "Don't know, don't care. I would recommend you focus on yourself though. One shock from me on your soaked body and you're done for." Hawk Eye grinned and raised his fist that sparked with lightning. With his hands occupied now, Yeti attacked Hawk Eye again with his own wet fists and connected this time on his face. The shots were weak, but were enough to release himself and show signs that Hawk Eye was still feeling dazed from Duel's prior attack. With his prey now loose, Hawk Eye fired a bolt of lightning in his direction, but missed. Yeti ran behind cover and dove onto a patch of grass to try and dry himself, but looking into the sky, morning had broke and the grass was already wet with morning dew. "Damn it!!" Yeti exclaimed while Hawk Eye closed in on him and fired again. Yeti got up in time to dodge and fled once more. At this point, his strategy was just to stay alive and run in circles until he could dry off. It seemed to work out pretty well, as he utilized trees and other objects for cover as he dashed past the bottle that Hawk Eye threw aside earlier. --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

"Come back here!! You're going to catch a cold if you keep running like that in wet clothes!!" Hawk Eye warned. Yeti frowned at the puzzling remark and just kept on running and circling the area. Soon after nearing another lap, he noticed Hawk Eye wasn't chasing anymore and it was eerily silent in the immediate area aside from his own running steps. A flash of light was the only warning he got, as a lightning bolt flew straight at him from ahead. Yeti fell straight down and hard onto his back to narrowly avoid sure death. "I guess I'm not so stupid after all, Mr. Run in circles." Hawk Eye flew down from his above hiding spot, standing over Yeti similarly to before and prepared to waste little time to finish him off. Yeti lifted his head off the ground to see Hawk Eye's hands flowing electricity between each other to charge the same powerful attack in their previous fight. The bright light seemed to be reflected off a shiny object to the side though and Yeti turned his head to see the empty glass bottle on the ground! In one swift movement, he lunged out to reach for it, grabbed it and hurled it into Hawk Eye's face. The bottle struck with great force and sent him stumbling backwards, while shattering. With Hawk Eye's attack halted, Yeti capitalized on his chance and picked up the largest piece of broken glass. "EEIYAAA!!!" Yeti screamed and plunged it straight into Hawk Eye's face. The glass dug deep into his face on the left side of his nose, spurting blood everywhere. Yeti didn't let up, picked up any other usable glass pieces, and shoved them into his face as well. With all the adrenaline pumping through him, he motioned to make a fireball, unsure if he was dry enough yet. His hopes were answered as his fireball grew to a massive size, spinning in midair, until Yeti launched it at Hawk Eye with a glass filled face. The ball exploded upon contact, burning Hawk Eye to a crisp instantly, but also ignited all the grass and other plants surrounding them. Hawk Eye's body settled finally onto the ground, while Yeti watched his victory and the fires burning around him as a result. "I'd better get out.... THOMP" Yeti couldn't finish his sentence before what felt like a truck, nailed him from behind and sent him face first into the grass. "Were you looking for me?" Duel's familiar voice rang in his ears. . . . --- I figure that, if there are people that I haven't talked to in a long while, there's probably a good reason for that. -MacDaddy Mike |

Viscen and Jial seemed to match each other move for move in their battle, but Viscen always had an advantage with his sword swinging around, while Jial was left with no weapons at all. Jial had been cut several times, though if he hadn't had increased durability, they probably would've been battle ending blows. His fatigue and injuries began to show slowly, as his movements began to get sloppy and Viscen again whittled down his opponent's energy in a methodical manner. If it weren't for a few karate punches and chops that he managed to land now and again, this fight would be completely one sided. Jial was now almost exhausted and Viscen saw this as his chance to try to end things. Viscen slashed horizontally at Jial's belly, only slightly grazing it when Jial leapt away, but anticipated his dodge by sending a straight kick to him. Jial winced all the way while rolling backwards on the ground, bleeding and tired. He looked ahead to see Viscen with an arrow aimed directly at him once more. "I won't miss this time." Viscen ominously predicted and launched the arrow. Jial was unable to react fast enough to move out of the way, but a body flew in front of him just in time and the arrow struck it instead. The body landed face up to confirm Jial's fear as it was none other than Gamequeen that jumped out to save him. The arrow had hit her straight in the heart and her body already had no motion whatsoever. "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" Jial cried out and held her close. "Well, I guess I didn't miss, but I did hit the wrong target..." "SHUT UP!" Jial couldn't believe Viscen's disrespect, lay the princess down and grabbed the katana that was in her lifeless hand. "Check her hand again, let's hope I didn't break a nail or something!"
