"Did I not? Huh must have told Mortar.''
[b]Royal suddenly disappears beneath the ground. He remerges a few feet away in his full form. Cadmael stands by him.[/b]
"Hey hey Kross! So, what's going on?"
English
-
[i]I'm gonna ignore the wound, which looks painful by the way, and get to the point. You remember, back in the war, when Mortar was that Big Scary war creature that killed Cadmael? Well... Something triggered him... and that thought process is back.[/i]
-
"Ah so Gore is back?" [b]Cadmael flinches at the name.[/b]
-
[i]yes. So, can you help?[/i]
-
"Oh you know it."
-
[i]Thank you, thanks.[/i] *Crossbow opens up a portal to view a dark crimson sky over the dojo*
-
[u]Is that it?[/u] (Cadmael) [i]Apparently[/i] (Kross) "Damn." (Royal)
-
[i]Yeah, I'd make like a planet and prepare Uranus.[/i] *Crossbow pushes you all out through the portal, then he jumps through before it closes*
-
[u]That was a terrible joke [/u] "Horrid." [b]The two of us draw our swords[/b] [i]How we doing this?[/i]
-
[i]You got the point. Try and subdue him without killing him, or your time will be wasted.[/i] *Crossbow readies his crossbow*
-
[u]I got the first move.[/u] [b]Cadmael flies into the air and lands behind Mortar [/b] [i]i got second![/i] [b]Kross rushes over to Gore and takes him from the front [/b] [b]i simply sigh [/b] "They never learn."
-
*Mortar slices at Kross, slicing his arm*
-
[b]Kross takes the hit and Cadmael stabs into one of Mortar's legs while he is distracted. I step into the shadows and exit right by Mortar. I then stab into his other leg.[/b]
-
*after the wounds are afflicted, they seem to scab up and heal almost instantly. He kicks Cadmael to the side and grabs you by the throat* Ah, the one I was denied the pleasure of the kill... *He squeezes at your throat*
-
[b]Cadmael stumbles backward [/b] [u]CROSSBOW! [/u] [b]Kross jumps onto Mortar's back and Starts punching the side of his head.[/b]
-
*Crossbow fires an arrow at Gore, and he lets go of Royal to attack Cadmael AND Crossbow* Crossbow... My first victim... *Gore summons a flaming iron ball, so shiny you can see your reflection in it, and hurls it at Crossbow, all while taking the punches and ultimately shaking Cadmael off.*
-
[b]Royal falls to his Knees and starts gasping for air while Kross (Not Cadmael) is knocked off Gore's back. Kross lands on his back and slowly stands up, while Cadmael flies into the air and fires a beam of light at the flames heading for Crossbow [/b]
-
*Gore sidesteps, and Crossbow counters the beam, now speeding towards him, with a shadow dragon (Think Overwatch) and runs to Royal* [i]You okay there?[/i]
-
"Fine. Ugh. Yeah fine." [b]Cadmael flies down to Gore and kicks at him while Kross sheathes his sword and draws the ones on his back [/b]
-
*Gore seems to look at these people, then shakes his head* Another time. THEN, you will be destroyed. *Gore dissolves into the ground, the fog fading a little just enough to see the twilight once more*
-
[b]Cadmael lands on the ground gracefully as Kross lowers his swords. They walk towards us[/b] [i]Damn[/i]
-
[i]Damn is right. Why didn't he kill us on the spot?[/i] *Before you can answer, a man in robes approaches the gate. His skin is charred black*
-
"Oh great. Well this vacation has gone to shit." [b]Kross readies his sword as he walks over to the figure [/b] [u]Who is this guy? [/u] [b]Cadmael stands with us[/b]
-
*Crossbow walks up to him* *He looks the figure intently* [i]Wit?[/i] *The figure nods* [b]I've come out of studying to help you with your problem... Don't ask about the skin.[/b] *Crossbow looks relieved* [i]Guys! This is Mortar's, or Gore's, Roommate and best friend. He's been studying that book for weeks, months, and now he's out to help us.[/i]
-
[b]Kross sheathes his swords, obviously annoyed he didn't get to use them [/b] "Hey Wit!" [spoiler]Do Royal and Wit have a backstory then? [/spoiler] [b]Cadmael helps Royal to his feet and they walk over to Wit.[/b]
-
[spoiler]No. Mortar and Wit do, but that would be before Royal was born.[/spoiler] [b]Hello. There may be something in this book that can help you here.[/b] *Wit pulls out an old, large, leather-bound book with odd symbols on the front and spine of the book* [b]My Ex-Girlfriend gave me this before we split. I've been studying it since we broke up... Not important, not important. Let's find Gore.[/b]
