Description: Anyone to fight!
Maeg'Dae - August 4, 2006 08:52 PM (GMT)
Maeg Stepped over the body that more lay in a puddle of blood and dirt. The ground was hard from the chill of the night and his breath misted before him, everywhere was covered in the light from the moon of the shadows it caused. A slow chuckle was erupting from his mouth which hardly ever stopped. The man had been an idiot to walk down here offering him stolen goods that he didn’t even have on him. He died a fool’s death. Walking out of the ally he saw a few people on the mud roads between near by houses and a lone cart trotted up the street led by two old mules. Mwhahahaha! Who laughed? MWhahahahaa! All that came out of him was chuckles as he trotted down the street, wobbling and losing his feet as if drunk. The inn was around here somewhere.
He stole a torch that was outside someone door and threw onto a nearby thatched roof. It took a few moments to catch flame and it spread slowly. Taking another one he did the same with a cart full of hay down an ally and then kept on doing it. It was only until he walked into a guard while throwing one onto a nearby person did change his plans. Recoiling off the watchman he took out his dagger and shouted,” Fire! Someone’s set fires!” and ran at the guard twisting so that he was almost running side one. The dagger took the guard in the chest before he could react and dark warm blood spilled onto Meag’s hand.
People rushed out of there houses to see the roofs for 3 houses ablaze and families scramble out of them quickly coughing from the smoke, along with the cart and the pile of hay.
Giggling he wandered off licking the blood of his hand, I want to cause more trouble! He knew people had seen him next to the dead guard and knew they would be reporting it to the guards soon.
Just as he thought these two guards shouted so he turned to see them pointing at him and had started to run. Ahh Ill kill ‘em!

Tee took a sip from the glass in her hand, all that was in it was plain water but it would do her for now, since she was driven from her home she had little money left. She stopped and sniffed, it smelt like burning. She stood up as she heard several thuds then the crackling of flames. She picked up a scabbard that held a katana from under the table and strapped it to her back heading outside. Several houses were on fire, thrown by somebody apparantly looking for trouble. Tee stepped out into the street to get a better look and spied a guard bieng rushed at. The dagger split the guard's chest open and blood poured over the dwarf's hand, Tee grimaced slightlyas it licked it off then began to run as everybody screemed.
"Anything for a quiet life" she muttered angrily.
She looked up at the inn roof, it was also on fire and she could see it was beginning to colapse. She looked after the dwarf and resigned herself to the worst, how hard could this be after all, she was taller than it. She ran after it as fast as she could listening to the terrified screams of everybody else. As she began to gain on it she leapt over it landing in its way.
"Going somewhere?" she said drawing her katana "hardly an evening stroll isn't it"
The dwarf was clearly drunk so Tee would at least try to knock him out, by the look of him guards wouldn't do any good at all.
Maeg'Dae - August 5, 2006 11:52 AM (GMT)
Just as he was about to run at the guards a new voice appeared "Going somewhere?" he looked around to see a woman sliding a katana out of its scabbard, just illuminated by the glowing fires up the street. "Hardly an evening stroll is it" Giggling loudly he glanced at the guards who had stopped running at him and had lowered there weapons. Holding his dagger up to his chest he Shouted, “Someone thinks to stop me?! MWHAHAhahaha!” A tear of laughter rolled down his face and he brushed it away still laughing. Turning to the guards he Spat, “are you going to do anything or not!?” but they didn’t hear.
Down the other street more fires had lighted, and the sound of fighting had sprung up. A large wild looking man ran after another and then slaughtering him with a huge Axe. Laughing again, He spewed up some words that sounded like, “hehehe look what I’ve started.” The guards headed off to stop the chaos that was happening. Turing back to the girl he chuckled and said, “one devotee of Chaos brings more Eh?! Hahahaha!” The fires where growing and the orange flickered in his eyes. Spread the chaos! Without further comment he charged at the newcomer raising his dagger to his side and charged. The dagger Swung sideways to cut across her pretty face, his other hand raised and ready to grab or punch.
Spyro - August 5, 2006 12:15 PM (GMT)
Spyro looked up and down the burning city and the utter chaos about it. He shrugged to himself and raised his hand, the fires died instantly but people were still panicking like hell.
"Well I can't control panick," he muttered.
He looked up to see a dwarf charge at a girl in her late teens with a dagger, Spyro chucled to himself and blew a spark into his hand, it grew into a fireball around his fist and he flew into the air throwing the fireball between the two, he landed lightly on a nearby roof laughing slightly.
"Drunk or not you still fight pretty good" he laughed "oh and by the way, start another fire and I'll throw it right back at you"
Aussa - August 5, 2006 12:26 PM (GMT)
“Someone thinks to stop me?! MWHAHAhahaha!” The drawf seemed hysterical, the guards had arrived but they were merely standing there watching.
"Useless" Tee muttered.
“are you going to do anything or not!?”
Further down the street all hell had broken loose, the place was ablaze and people were starting to riot, one man was cut down by an axe and the drawf just laughed.
“hehehe look what I’ve started.” he laughed as the guards ran off to stop the confusion “one devotee of Chaos brings more Eh?! Hahahaha!”
"Get a life" Tee said.
The dwarf charged at her raising the dagger, Tee saw what he was about to to before he'd started and she stepped back raising her katana, she noticed his other hand getting ready for something or other. The blades clattered together and Tee gave a satisfied smirk at the dwarf.
"Sorry pal, but you're too slow" she laughed and lowered the katana.
She kept a watcheful eye out to see what the dwarf would do next when all of a sudden she looked up and catrewheeled backwards out of the way of a fireball that impacted between them.
"Hey. watch your aim!" she yelled at the half dragon landing on the roof.
"Drunk or not you still fight pretty good, oh and by the way, start another fire and I'll throw it right back at you"
Tee's eyes narrowed, a cocky little half dragon butting in on her fight had already got up her back.
"Clear off kid before this goes up your backside!" she yelled up at him "I can handle this myself!"
Maeg'Dae - August 5, 2006 01:40 PM (GMT)
The woman blocked his attack with ease but it didn’t matter the slash wasn’t what he was going to hit with. Fist about to crashing down on her head, the fire ball flew between them and a hit a wall of a near by house. pity it didn’t set on fire he thought halting his attack turning grumpily to the boy who now faced both of them.
The new comer was arrogant as he was idiot. "Clear off kid before this goes up your backside!" she yelled up at him "I can handle this myself!" after the woman said that he laughed and smiled at her, it wasn’t often he could be friendly to someone but it seemed she was thinking the same thing.
“Listen to the woman, boy.” He snarled out of the corner of his mouth still smiling. “Let us fight in peace or maybe,” he said turning to him, “I could rip out our little heart and swap it for that one.” He finished pointing at the dead man on the floor and laughing again. Panic I love PANIC! More fires lit up in the village by the chaos riot. Facing the woman again he said, “I’m Meag’Dae. Do you want to continue?” raising his dagger to the woman’s Katana and putting his fit back into the air. I’ll kill the shrimp later. Mwhahahaha!
Aussa - August 5, 2006 03:12 PM (GMT)
Tee turned her gaze away from the hlaf dragon with slight anoyance crossing her features, she looked back at the dwarf.
“Listen to the woman, boy. Let us fight in peace or maybe, I could rip out our little heart and swap it for that one.” the dwarf said poitning at a random carcass on the ground.
Tee looked at it then back at the dwarf.
“I’m Meag’Dae." the dwarf told her "Do you want to continue?”
"Hell yeah" Tee muttered "and I'm Tee by the way"
Meag'dae put his dagger against Tee's katana, she stepped slowly to the side circling round him then lashed out suddenly.
Maeg'Dae - August 5, 2006 03:27 PM (GMT)
Her sword flew towards him, cutting though air as it came at his chest. I was only because his reflexes were fast did he manage to block the attack with his dagger blade. The blade vibrated hard for a second before flying form his hand with the impact into a wall nearby house and stuck there with a heavy sounding thud. Not waiting to be attacked again he swung a punch at her face hard and fast, hoping to catch her in the jaw and knock her out or at least stun her till he cold get his dagger.
[[ its small but its only a fast fight scene =] ]]
Aussa - August 5, 2006 03:36 PM (GMT)
The Meeg'dae raised his dagger, his reflexes were as fast as hers, but hers were only available in battle, it wouldn't necissarily be true for the dwarf too. But as much to Tee's surprise as anybody else's the dagger was kncoked out of Meeg'dae's hand and thudded into a wall. With a heavy thud, taken aback by her own tallent Tee didn't notice a fist fly at her until it hit her in the jaw, she stumbled backwards almost falling over but regaining herself in time to looked up, she wiped a small bit of blood from her lips and looked up as Meeg'dae retrieved his dagger.
"Seems like I don'ty know my own streangh" she muttered.
She waited till the dwarf got his dagger, she hated to play unfair, and charged at him leaping over him at the last moment and slashing behind her hoping to catch his back. She then rolled forewards and leapt to her feet away form a counter attack the dwarf might have been planning.
Maeg'Dae - August 5, 2006 03:50 PM (GMT)
The sword caught him on the back leaving a red line though his ragged shirt. Shouting his swung his arm around with such force it would of knocked her a few feet, but she had already moved leaving him staggered by his own attack. Looking at her he growled with a mixed chuckle amongst it. The fires where still going and the Chaos had not been quelled in fact things seemed to be going well. Most of the guards were disrupted and being hunted down along with the people, and the ones that did do there jobs where soon cornered and killed.
Raising his dagger again his back twitched with pain. He was then covered with a dark reddish glow, which healed the wound into a scar. “That’s better.” Mwhahahaha!
He ran at her jumping side to side to confuse her. And as he drew to his last jump he skipped it and right at her, dagger raised above his head and feet bother in front, to knock her to the ground. Of course I won’t kill her right away.
Aussa - August 5, 2006 04:01 PM (GMT)
Tee raised her katana ready, the dwarf glowed red and soon the cut she'd made on his back had healed over.
"Damn it" she muttered "he can heal"
“That’s better.” he said laughing.
Tee gripped her katana harder and kept her eyes on Meeg'dae, he ran at her hoping left and right. Because of this Tee had absolutely no idea which side he was going to attack on, at the last jump he stopped and raised his dagger above his head. Tee rasied her katana and blocked the dagger but felt his feet simoultaniousley crash into her stomach, he staggered backwards slightly winded but straightened up again. She looked around to see if there was anything she could use apart from discarder objects left by dead villagers. She gave up and looked back up at the dwarf and smiled slightly.
"Night, night"
She said laughing and leapt forewards, span once and aimed to land her foot on his head to knock him out.
Maeg'Dae - August 5, 2006 04:14 PM (GMT)
Damn I didn’t pin her, oh the fun I could have had... Ahh well now ill just have to do it another way, or just kill her. tee started looking most likely for another weapon but she gave up quickly and turned back to face him. "Night, night" What’s she on abo… He realised when she leapt at him and span bringing her leg up to kick. “Ahh!” His arm came up but too late her boot crashed into the side of his head making his twist and rise in the air. His body landed seemingly unconscious back on the frozen ground with a thud, his dagger caught in a dead mans grip and his head bleeding.
The raging battle was only just being quelled but it seemed it would take the better part of the night. If the chaos reached a different level they would most likely get more people and win. Still houses burned being put out by there owners who occasionally had to stop to defend themselves or die fruitlessly.
Meag lay there still and breathing shallowly. Heehehehe
Aussa - August 5, 2006 05:57 PM (GMT)
Tee's foot struck Meeg'dae in the head and he toppled over out cold. Tee landed lightly beside him and straightened up smiling.
"That was easier than I thought" she muttered.
She bent down putting her fingers against Meeg'dae's neck, she could still feel a pulse and he was breathing, almost laughing. Tee got to her feet and looked at the carnage about the village she walked forwards and ducked as a man swung at her with an axe, she grabbed the hilt, twisted it out of his grip then kneed him between the legs causing him to bend over. She then kicked him in the face, span round and roundhoused him to the floor. She landed behond him smiling as he groaned on the ground. She wondered what had happpened to the half dragon and glanced around for him.
"Little brat must have run off" she muttered.
Maeg'Dae - August 5, 2006 06:45 PM (GMT)
Maeg awoke a few seconds after tee had beaten the man with the axe, groaning. His head hurt loads and he now lay on the floor clutching at the point where she kicked him. He remembered where he was after a bald man covered in tattoos ran past with two arrows in him. Getting up slowly he saw tee looking off somewhere and thought to take advantage of the situation.
Gripping the hilt of his dagger he did his best to sneak behind her. Raising his dagger he snarled and it fell down. Suddenly there was a scream of pain and he was lying on the ground clutching his arm. A bolt protruded out of it along with blood and more shouts of agony. Tee must know he was there by now surly. The old man who had shot him with a crossbow was standing by his door surrounded by his family who where now telling him to finish it.
Maeg picked up his dagger for the second time and ran between to near by houses. Pulling out the bolt he swore and then laughed manically again. “Damn interfering family! I’ll show them.” looking back to see if tee had followed him he walked in to the bend in the ally and corrected himself immediately.
Outside this end of the ally, a small skirmish was being fought. Several guards were fighting off a group of people all wore the same crimson red cloaks, who were blasting fire spells every where and being killed. Stumbling out of the ally he turned to see if he was being followed. I’m in pain… HAAHAHAHA!
Aussa - August 5, 2006 06:57 PM (GMT)
Tee smirked as a man covered in tatooes ran past and was hit by two arrows. She looked ahead of her and heard a yell from behind her, she span round to see Meeg on his feet with a bolt in his arm, she leaped backwards drawing her katana and looked over at the man with the crossbow, he ajusted his aim and fired again. Tee leapt forwewards and shalshed the arrow in two, the pices span in mid air and clattered to the floor. Tee stood back up as the old man backed back into his house. Tee saw Meed'dae run into an alley cursing the family and pulling out the bolt. She looked down the alley and saw several fire mages fighting the guards anf throwing fireballs everywhere. Tee ducked sideways as one whizzed past her striking a cart and causing it to burt into flames. She looked back up at Meeg'dae. He was stumbling out of the alley. She'd have to go after him but there was such a riot going on that she had to sort it out before it got too out of hand. She ran at several men strying to knock each other out with random objects they'de found, she sheethed her katan and leapt in between the two men landing on her hands and spin kicking them both out cold. SHe flipped back upright infront of the two smiling slightly, she was then knocked off her feet by a stray fire blast.
"Right that's it" she snarled.
She got back to her feet and ran down the allley jumping onto one of the walls and running along it till she reached the end and drew her katana and span round cutting two down before the could cause any more harm, she ducked a fireball and knocked the mage off his feet before driving her katana through his face.
"Right, where's Meeg go?" she muttered.
Maeg'Dae - August 5, 2006 07:59 PM (GMT)
The mages on his side or not had at last been killed. He had even helped out on that, as one of them shouting, “Chaos!” whilst blast everything with fire balls and other fire related magic was backed into a wall near Maeg. He had grabbed the man and thrown him to the floor. Where he stabbed him in the chest repeatedly. “That’s for giving me a headache!” Maeg bellowed as the man gave his last whimper of chaos, earning him his last ever punch in the face. The guards then moved on to help out else where and Meag thought he’d join them. Jogging up beside them he nodded to on that seemed to be a leader who I return gave a nod back. Fools! Fools! Hahahahaa!
As they all rounded a corner they spotted a man being beaten up by a small group. The man was covered in chains that three of them were holding, which when ever they pulled one of them lashed out with a weapon or a kick. The man looked about to die, blood poured down his face and cuts and bruised covered his naked body. Most likely the only reason he was till alive was because of a woman that was chained up to a wall was his wife.
The guards drew closer and shouted so the small group knew they were there. One of them stuck a pick in the prisoners head, killing him and the woman let out a wail of misery. The rest of them picked up weapons that they had left on the floor or had just found. Then everyone was completely surprised. A guard lunched forward and was pulled back screaming by Maeg who had his dagger in his back releasing dark blood and lung fluid all over the cold nights floor. A bolt flew out of a window sticking one of the guards in the side of the head, as Maeg lunched himself into the side of another thrusting his dagger in his neck. More guard charged though an ally way as more of the rioters came out of the houses.
Confused Maeg leapt out of the way from a halberds swipe and jumped back kicking the man in the grown. Chuckling he ran to the side away from the fight. Militia led by guards came to add to the Mêlée as well.
“It was a good fight but it looks like Chaos was beaten.” He mumbled heartily. “That is if you can call it that!” he added looking around at the mess he had started. Houses were still on fire bodies of both sides litters the streets and screams came from everywhere. Better finish what I’ve started. “Where’s Tee?”
Aussa - August 5, 2006 10:10 PM (GMT)
After Tee had finished off the mages she looked about for Meeg'dae but he seemed to have run off again. She sighed to herself and stepped forwards in time to see a man thrown through a window infont of her and crash to the ground, a man wielding two long daggers leapt out and stabbed him in the chest then turne his attention to Tee. She raised her katana in a threatening manner but he ignored it. He leapt at her and lashed out, she knocked one dagger out of his kand with her katana and kicked the other one away before driving the katana through his chest, she kicked him off it and ran off to look for Meeg. She was stopped in her tracks again by a large gang of people throwing things everywhere, she dodged out of the way of a shattered plank of wood and several wine bottles and looked up at the group chraging towards her. She slid between them and took out the ones in the center and began working her way outwards slicing the arm of one and cutting his throat before kicking the rest away, they got to their feet and ran at her. She flipped over them clashing one in the back then spinning round to finish off the rest, they fell almost simoultaniousley. She noticed Meag brawling with several guards and criminals with bolts flying from one window. SH elooked up at it and leapt back as one thudded into the ground infront of her.
"It was a good fight but it looks like Chaos was beaten. That is if you can call it that!”
“Where’s Tee?”
"Right here" Tee replied leaping onto the wall then back down at Meag spinning her katana in one hand.
