Yankee Samarai07/23/2019
Whispers. “Fen-! Fenwomples! Not again.”
Reloads flintlock.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Starts walking again, this time more carefully.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Are you sure it's Sasquatch? What if it's pale archers or something?"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Then we still have to be quiet, whoever it is.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Yes...so shut up Bambichi!”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Who you calling Bambichi?"
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Shhhh!”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Groans under her breath.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Should we backtrack to try to avoid them?" Beakerson whispers.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Can they be avoided is the question.”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Just...follow, please.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Sticks close by.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "How many of them are there?"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “I'd prefer not to find out.”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Good point."
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Oh my! I can't wait to be in good company again.” “Please please please don't be Fenwomples.”
little song07/23/2019 “Just get back quickly.” Draws sword. “And we’ll be ready if they come.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Which way is the camp?” “Point me in the direction.”
little song07/23/2019 “This way.” Starts walking and watching out.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Very good, Sukoshi...you know what happens next.” His tone is something she would recognize, something crazy he is about to do.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "What's that supposed to mean?"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Scanning the trees.
little song07/23/2019 “Oh dear…”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Glances at Kashi.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “It means...BRAKE IT OR LOSE IT!” He makes a mad dash through the trees, firing his pistol into the brush. “This way everyone! Yonder is our safety!” “Come! Follow Bambichi!”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "What in the blue blazes is he doing?"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Drops to the ground to take cover, expecting to be shot at, at any second.
little song07/23/2019 Drops too. Ready to slash out.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 They hear in the distance, "You won't take any of us you Briggands!”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Glances at Kashi. "Where did you find this guy?"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Wondering now if it's fenwomples or the blood-whatever-they're-called pirate guys.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Silence, only the sounds of the forest.
little song07/23/2019 “He came on a ship to Kokka. Got arrested, but we learned it was just a misunderstanding, and he just came to study our culture.”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Well now the crazy turd is going to get himself killed." "I'm beginning to see why we never had him at family reunions."
little song07/23/2019 “I’m actually surprised he’s still alive.”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Pushes herself into a crouch and glances around, cautiously getting to her feet.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Jade's senses catch stealthy movement.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Tenses for a split second before relaxing and blending in with the forest around her, listening.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 She hears fainted voices. “...but look! It's her again? The Kokkan! Isolated from the group.”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Starts moving a little closer to the voices.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Another voice is frustrated. “If we try, the twenty something others will hear, and we will be caught.” Voice #1: “But that blasted Donindor isn't here to protect them this time.” Voice #2: “Don't be a fool!” Voice#1: “Hold on...did you see that? The Mantis? She is gone! No longer with the group!” Voice #2: “Are you sure she isn't just behind a tree?” Voice#1: “Positive…”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Sighs slightly and moves until she can see them.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Voice#2: “Now you've done it! She is probably hunting us.”
little song07/23/2019 Slips into the bushes herself.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Voice #1: “There she goes!...but now I can't see her.” Voice #2: “We are leaving…” Man one bites his lip. He moves forward on the groups position, drawing a crossbow.
little song07/23/2019 Springs out trying to disarm him.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Steps out of the trees behind them.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “I am tired of all this ambush and sneaking around...Elyon's servants should not have to hide…” “GAA!” He aims his crossbow, but Kashi hits it, disabling it.
little song07/23/2019 Sword points. “You want to come back to camp with us.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 The two men are now separate, Mantis is behind Man #2, who held his position, Kashi is near Man #1, who advanced, so there is a small distance between the two.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Traps the second guy's neck between her weapons, but doesn't kill him. “Drop your weapon.”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson pops out, hammer at the ready. "Put up your dukes!"
little song07/23/2019 *** Dukes... really?
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Man#1: “I will not submit to you, heathen.” Man#2: Makes no movements, he drops his weapon. They each carry a sword and a flintlock pistol.
little song07/23/2019 “Why would you want to hurt me though. I recognize you.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “And I see you had the coincidence of being near a healer when I last shot you!”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Is this another weird friend of yours? He better not be my cousin too."
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Man#2 to Jade: “Don't hurt me.”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Anyone have a plan? What should I do with this guy now?” To M2, “....No promises.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M2: “I am terrible at that...I can't promise either.”
little song07/23/2019 “Drop your weapons and walk behind us.” Slightly scared.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Probably a good idea. Do what the other person said.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M1: Senses Kashi's fear. “Ohhh! Your not a real fighter, are you?”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "You wanna test that theory bubby?"
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M1: Smiles menacingly. Takes a step toward Kashi.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Louder and more commanding to M1, “Drop your weapons or your friend will die.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M2: “Do as they say, Regus! Let it go!”
little song07/23/2019 Takes a step back.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Hey come on now Kashi, now's not the time to be getting scared on us. You have a sword and he's just a big oaf."
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M1: His steps get bolder. To Mantis, “How about a new deal...you release my friend, and yours will die a quick painless death.” Another step toward Kashi. M2: “Regus...DON’T!”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Your last warning, human.” Tightens grip.
little song07/23/2019 “You don’t have that power.” Steps back, katana at his neck. “I can end you.” Still scared, but in a fight response.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M2: “Gurk.”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "I'd listen to her bubby. She's not one you want to mess with. And you’re in no position to negotiate."
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M1: “Am I…?” Mantis and Beakerson see that he has had Kashi's attention drawn to his face, so he has slid out his flintlock. He cocks it, it is aimed at her torso.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Cuts M2's neck and topples him forward, stepping quickly over his body. Advancing on M1.
little song07/23/2019 Drops sword to the ground and starts to run.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Regus aims at her leg, pulls the trigger.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson swings his hammer at the back of M1's head going for a waylay.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Tries to knocks him out of the way.
little song07/23/2019 Falls down with a little cry, but still crawling away.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Got you!” Hears Mantis and Beakerson's approach, he twirls to the side, drawing his sword to engage While dressed like briggands, these men are highly trained, if the companions have ever encountered a knight, their fighting style reminds them of one.
little song07/23/2019 Crawling back..
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Beakerson! Help her. I'll take care of this guy.” Crouches slightly, in fighting position.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “No you won’t.” Grins maliciously.
little song07/23/2019 “Stop!” “What do you want?” Looking back at him.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Runs over to Kashi's side. "Where are you hit?"
little song07/23/2019 “Yeah.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Don't touch her, Doctor.”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Slashes consecutively at M1's chest and then his knees before hearing Kashi and checking herself slightly.
little song07/23/2019 “I’m so sorry.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 He blocks the chest attack, but he has never fought someone with her reflexes, and the second attack catches him by surprise, resulting in a grazed knee, but he seems to tolerate the pain, and ignores it...Kashi's call stops his counterattack. “You hear me doctor! Don't touch her!”
little song07/23/2019 “... Get back... to camp, Dr.”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Just try to stop me creep face. She'll bleed out if I don't tend to her. Hold him off Jade!"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Jade grits her teeth slightly, still exhausted from all the other battles she's been that day. To M1, “Or what, human?”
little song07/23/2019 Just screams for help as loud as she can.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Well, isn't it obvious, heathen…” Is startled. Runs towards Kashi.
little song07/23/2019 Holds up sword to guard.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “No!” Tries to stop him.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Brings his might down, whacking her blade. And kicking Beakerson aside with ease. Jade's approach distracts him from dispatching Kashi.
little song07/23/2019 Pushed to the ground but holds the guard.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Slashes across the backs of his legs.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson whips out his white power stone and quickly touches it to Kashi. This powers up her armor to white level for five minutes.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Jade's attack cripples him. “HELP ME IDIOTS!”
little song07/23/2019 Crawls back away from him.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Slashes at his neck.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Catches her arm, twists it in.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Grunts in pain, but kicks him in the stomach and pulls away.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson quickly powers up Jade as well. He then pulls out his gold stone to de-power M1 to zero armor for five minutes.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 As Beakerson approaches, he thrusts his sword at his chest.
little song07/23/2019 Tries to parry it for him.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 She parries, but he strikes her across the face with his fist.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 The blade snaps against Beakerson's chest like a twig.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Sees the opening in M1's defenses and cuts his head off.
little song07/23/2019 Blinks and shakes, head dazed.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “WHERE ARE YOU GUYS!?” Head comes off.
little song07/23/2019 Coughs and holds her head.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson breathes a sigh of relief.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “We need to get out of here.” Folds her tibias against her arms and crouches beside K. “Can you walk if we help you?”
little song07/24/2019 “Probably. If we just bind it.” Hands shaking.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Nods. “Right.”
little song07/24/2019 “I just... l’ll be fine. I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have ran like that.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Don't worry about it. We just need to get back to the rest right now.” Helps her up.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Dr. Beakerson bandages Kashi's leg. "I'm afraid I'm still out of my usual supplies from our last battle. That will mend, but it will take longer than normal to heal. So sorry, I wish I could do more."
little song07/24/2019 “It’s fine. Is the professor? And nascha... we have to carry her back too. I can ... hop or something.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 “Don't worry, I took care of Nascha, she pretty tough.” “I just don't know how the heck I'm going to carry you, and her. And good riddance to the professor, he left us.”
little song07/24/2019 “Maybe... you guys could go back to camp and bring someone to help?”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “I'll help you. Beakerson, can you find Nascha and help her?”
little song07/24/2019 “Thanks, Jade.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 “Ah! Okay!” Goes to get Nascha. Turns around quickly to Jade. “Just don't let Sukoshi...Kashi, I forget, but who cares, it’s confusing, walk by herself.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Quick smile. “Any time.” Puts K's arm around her shoulders, taking the weight off of her injured leg, and starts walking slowly in the direction of camp. Glances back at B. “Of course.”
little song07/24/2019 Limping. “I’m very sorry jade. I... you’re much braver than I.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “And probably a lot wiser as well....Bravery has its weaknesses also.”
little song07/24/2019 “And a lot more sarcastic.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 More rustling, fast on approach.
little song07/24/2019 “Professor?” Grips sword.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Her slight smile fades and she tenses. Quietly, “Let's move quicker.” Staying alert, picks up the pace.
little song07/24/2019 Heading faster. Breathing heavily.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 There is movement on all sides.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Groans internally and slows to a stop. “...I'm going to let you sit down. Don't stand unless I'm down and you need to run.” Eases her down next to a tree and glances around, on alert.
little song07/24/2019 “You should just run, Jade. Go to camp and get help.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 The rustling continues, they hear that it is not stopping, moving hastily, away from them.
little song07/24/2019 “Animals? Maybe?”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Not happening, sorry…” Cautiously. “I'm not sure... I guess we'll see.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Jade's hearing catches another voice, a short distance away. "Regus was a fool...even if we do kill them, we have been compromised." "That is why I'd like to cut our losses, and take them out while they are alone." "No! They know too much already, let's get out of here before their companions show up."
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Crouches down beside K. “Not animals. But maybe if we stay quiet, they won't bother us.”
little song07/24/2019 Nods and silently gets into the brush, almost disappearing.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "Dimitri is going to be so mad...perhaps he will kill us himself."
little song07/24/2019 I hope the doctor is okay.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 “You know what I would like, is to kill that traitor Guiscard. I'd throttle him with my bare hands if I could. Then for sure we would have one less problem, and blasphemer, to worry about."
little song07/24/2019 Remembering.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Listens intently.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "So are we leaving?" "I have to try brother, I cannot resist--" the voices halt, more rustling. A new voice, "I left them over here! They would not follow me I told you!"
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Rises to her feet slowly.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "Perhaps they thought you were being a distraction." The voice of Eregon.
little song07/24/2019 Sigh of relief.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "Be quiet, you, crazy man, enough talking, just take us to them." The voice of Guiscard.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Confused as to if they're safe or not.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Professor: “See, here are the worms I told you about, fascinating things aren’t they, and tasty looking too.” Guiscard: “I don’t want your worm.” Slaps it out of his hand. “Where are they!?”
little song07/24/2019 Makes a bad bird sound… “Well…”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Eregon: “What was that?” Professor: “I've never heard that specimen before?” Gets out binoculars.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Relieved. Calls out, still cautious. “Over here…”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard: “That, my friends, was a girl…” They all turn. They run over, Guiscard in the lead. little song07/24/2019 “Am I glad it’s you.” Crawling out.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Very thankful they aren't going to be killed at the moment.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard: Sounds relieved. “Kashi! What is going on?” Sees wounded leg. “Ohh...you are hurt again.” Sees Jade. “What about you? Are you well?” Eragon: “We heard gunshots.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Yes, I'm fine.” Offers to help K up again. “We were attacked.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard helps Jade with Kashi.
little song07/24/2019 “We all have to get back to camp now. Those people. The guys chasing me it has something to do with you, Guiscard.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Eragon offers them both water.
little song07/24/2019 “Thank you.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Takes some water. “Yeah...Someone wanted to strangle you, I'm afraid, Guiscard.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard looks between them intently. After a pause. “We should get back to camp. We will speak then.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Good plan.” Exhales, but tries not to show how relieved she was that they showed up.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Eregon: “So, what are we going to do with this guy?” Points to Professor. He has decapitated one of the worms, and taken a piece of meat to taste.
little song07/24/2019 “Yes.” Looks down trying to remember the names clearly. “He’s a friend. Harmless. He can come with us for now right?”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Professor: “You might have to cook these before they are any good.”
To be continued...
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Starts walking again, this time more carefully.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Are you sure it's Sasquatch? What if it's pale archers or something?"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Then we still have to be quiet, whoever it is.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Yes...so shut up Bambichi!”

Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M1: His steps get bolder. To Mantis, “How about a new deal...you release my friend, and yours will die a quick painless death.” Another step toward Kashi. M2: “Regus...DON’T!”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Your last warning, human.” Tightens grip.
little song07/23/2019 “You don’t have that power.” Steps back, katana at his neck. “I can end you.” Still scared, but in a fight response.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M2: “Gurk.”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "I'd listen to her bubby. She's not one you want to mess with. And you’re in no position to negotiate."
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 M1: “Am I…?” Mantis and Beakerson see that he has had Kashi's attention drawn to his face, so he has slid out his flintlock. He cocks it, it is aimed at her torso.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Cuts M2's neck and topples him forward, stepping quickly over his body. Advancing on M1.
little song07/23/2019 Drops sword to the ground and starts to run.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Regus aims at her leg, pulls the trigger.

Dark Matter07/23/2019 Tries to knocks him out of the way.
little song07/23/2019 Falls down with a little cry, but still crawling away.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Got you!” Hears Mantis and Beakerson's approach, he twirls to the side, drawing his sword to engage While dressed like briggands, these men are highly trained, if the companions have ever encountered a knight, their fighting style reminds them of one.
little song07/23/2019 Crawling back..
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “Beakerson! Help her. I'll take care of this guy.” Crouches slightly, in fighting position.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “No you won’t.” Grins maliciously.
little song07/23/2019 “Stop!” “What do you want?” Looking back at him.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Runs over to Kashi's side. "Where are you hit?"
little song07/23/2019 “Yeah.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Don't touch her, Doctor.”
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Slashes consecutively at M1's chest and then his knees before hearing Kashi and checking herself slightly.
little song07/23/2019 “I’m so sorry.”
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 He blocks the chest attack, but he has never fought someone with her reflexes, and the second attack catches him by surprise, resulting in a grazed knee, but he seems to tolerate the pain, and ignores it...Kashi's call stops his counterattack. “You hear me doctor! Don't touch her!”
little song07/23/2019 “... Get back... to camp, Dr.”
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 "Just try to stop me creep face. She'll bleed out if I don't tend to her. Hold him off Jade!"
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Jade grits her teeth slightly, still exhausted from all the other battles she's been that day. To M1, “Or what, human?”
little song07/23/2019 Just screams for help as loud as she can.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “Well, isn't it obvious, heathen…” Is startled. Runs towards Kashi.
little song07/23/2019 Holds up sword to guard.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “No!” Tries to stop him.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Brings his might down, whacking her blade. And kicking Beakerson aside with ease. Jade's approach distracts him from dispatching Kashi.
little song07/23/2019 Pushed to the ground but holds the guard.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Slashes across the backs of his legs.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson whips out his white power stone and quickly touches it to Kashi. This powers up her armor to white level for five minutes.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Jade's attack cripples him. “HELP ME IDIOTS!”
little song07/23/2019 Crawls back away from him.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Slashes at his neck.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 Catches her arm, twists it in.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Grunts in pain, but kicks him in the stomach and pulls away.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson quickly powers up Jade as well. He then pulls out his gold stone to de-power M1 to zero armor for five minutes.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 As Beakerson approaches, he thrusts his sword at his chest.
little song07/23/2019 Tries to parry it for him.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 She parries, but he strikes her across the face with his fist.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 The blade snaps against Beakerson's chest like a twig.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 Sees the opening in M1's defenses and cuts his head off.
little song07/23/2019 Blinks and shakes, head dazed.
Yankee Samarai07/23/2019 “WHERE ARE YOU GUYS!?” Head comes off.
little song07/23/2019 Coughs and holds her head.
ThatGuyOverThere07/23/2019 Beakerson breathes a sigh of relief.
Dark Matter07/23/2019 “We need to get out of here.” Folds her tibias against her arms and crouches beside K. “Can you walk if we help you?”
little song07/24/2019 “Probably. If we just bind it.” Hands shaking.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Nods. “Right.”
little song07/24/2019 “I just... l’ll be fine. I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have ran like that.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Don't worry about it. We just need to get back to the rest right now.” Helps her up.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Dr. Beakerson bandages Kashi's leg. "I'm afraid I'm still out of my usual supplies from our last battle. That will mend, but it will take longer than normal to heal. So sorry, I wish I could do more."
little song07/24/2019 “It’s fine. Is the professor? And nascha... we have to carry her back too. I can ... hop or something.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 “Don't worry, I took care of Nascha, she pretty tough.” “I just don't know how the heck I'm going to carry you, and her. And good riddance to the professor, he left us.”
little song07/24/2019 “Maybe... you guys could go back to camp and bring someone to help?”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “I'll help you. Beakerson, can you find Nascha and help her?”
little song07/24/2019 “Thanks, Jade.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 “Ah! Okay!” Goes to get Nascha. Turns around quickly to Jade. “Just don't let Sukoshi...Kashi, I forget, but who cares, it’s confusing, walk by herself.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Quick smile. “Any time.” Puts K's arm around her shoulders, taking the weight off of her injured leg, and starts walking slowly in the direction of camp. Glances back at B. “Of course.”
little song07/24/2019 Limping. “I’m very sorry jade. I... you’re much braver than I.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “And probably a lot wiser as well....Bravery has its weaknesses also.”
little song07/24/2019 “And a lot more sarcastic.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 More rustling, fast on approach.
little song07/24/2019 “Professor?” Grips sword.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Her slight smile fades and she tenses. Quietly, “Let's move quicker.” Staying alert, picks up the pace.
little song07/24/2019 Heading faster. Breathing heavily.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 There is movement on all sides.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Groans internally and slows to a stop. “...I'm going to let you sit down. Don't stand unless I'm down and you need to run.” Eases her down next to a tree and glances around, on alert.
little song07/24/2019 “You should just run, Jade. Go to camp and get help.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 The rustling continues, they hear that it is not stopping, moving hastily, away from them.
little song07/24/2019 “Animals? Maybe?”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Not happening, sorry…” Cautiously. “I'm not sure... I guess we'll see.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Jade's hearing catches another voice, a short distance away. "Regus was a fool...even if we do kill them, we have been compromised." "That is why I'd like to cut our losses, and take them out while they are alone." "No! They know too much already, let's get out of here before their companions show up."
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Crouches down beside K. “Not animals. But maybe if we stay quiet, they won't bother us.”
little song07/24/2019 Nods and silently gets into the brush, almost disappearing.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "Dimitri is going to be so mad...perhaps he will kill us himself."
little song07/24/2019 I hope the doctor is okay.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 “You know what I would like, is to kill that traitor Guiscard. I'd throttle him with my bare hands if I could. Then for sure we would have one less problem, and blasphemer, to worry about."
little song07/24/2019 Remembering.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Listens intently.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "So are we leaving?" "I have to try brother, I cannot resist--" the voices halt, more rustling. A new voice, "I left them over here! They would not follow me I told you!"
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Rises to her feet slowly.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "Perhaps they thought you were being a distraction." The voice of Eregon.
little song07/24/2019 Sigh of relief.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 "Be quiet, you, crazy man, enough talking, just take us to them." The voice of Guiscard.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Confused as to if they're safe or not.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Professor: “See, here are the worms I told you about, fascinating things aren’t they, and tasty looking too.” Guiscard: “I don’t want your worm.” Slaps it out of his hand. “Where are they!?”
little song07/24/2019 Makes a bad bird sound… “Well…”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Eregon: “What was that?” Professor: “I've never heard that specimen before?” Gets out binoculars.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Relieved. Calls out, still cautious. “Over here…”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard: “That, my friends, was a girl…” They all turn. They run over, Guiscard in the lead. little song07/24/2019 “Am I glad it’s you.” Crawling out.
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Very thankful they aren't going to be killed at the moment.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard: Sounds relieved. “Kashi! What is going on?” Sees wounded leg. “Ohh...you are hurt again.” Sees Jade. “What about you? Are you well?” Eragon: “We heard gunshots.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Yes, I'm fine.” Offers to help K up again. “We were attacked.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard helps Jade with Kashi.
little song07/24/2019 “We all have to get back to camp now. Those people. The guys chasing me it has something to do with you, Guiscard.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Eragon offers them both water.
little song07/24/2019 “Thank you.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 Takes some water. “Yeah...Someone wanted to strangle you, I'm afraid, Guiscard.”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Guiscard looks between them intently. After a pause. “We should get back to camp. We will speak then.”
Dark Matter07/24/2019 “Good plan.” Exhales, but tries not to show how relieved she was that they showed up.
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Eregon: “So, what are we going to do with this guy?” Points to Professor. He has decapitated one of the worms, and taken a piece of meat to taste.
little song07/24/2019 “Yes.” Looks down trying to remember the names clearly. “He’s a friend. Harmless. He can come with us for now right?”
Yankee Samarai07/24/2019 Professor: “You might have to cook these before they are any good.”
