Kraken fired a croddbow bolt at each of the closest two guards (I presume Guards 1 & 2) before rolling backwards, drawing his sword and getting into a defensive stance.

by **Kotoki** » Tue Oct 01, 2002 7:46 pm

"Jak!" called Kotoki happily, waving as she ran forward and gave him a hug. "I hope I didn't worry you too much."

The crossbow bolts flew towards the soldiers. One hit the mark- the second man made a pained grunt as his arm was hit.

The first man, however, was lucky. And definately not very pleased. Grabbing his sword, he charged at Kraken to run the man through. The attack was a strong one, but Kraken just barely managed to parry it.

by **Jak Snide** » Wed Oct 02, 2002 11:45 am

Jak accepted the hug, a smile on his face. Anger and fear faded at the reassuring presence of Kotoki.

Then his eyes fell on the soldiers, and the hate came rushing back. They had taken her away from him. They had been the cause of his anguish and misery. They had almost robbed him of all that was precious to him.

They would die.

He broke free of his love's embrace, taking a step beyond, putting himself between her and them, one hand curled up into a claw, crackling with electricity.

(Cue me when it's my turn.)

As Jak stood there, contemplating numerous ways to inflict severe bodily harm on the guards, A certain Dark Knight was riding that exact same train of thought.

e\/e+++ "YOU @#$@#ERS ARE GONNA *WISH* YOU WERE SWIMMING IN THAT S*&T WHEN I"M F*&KING THROUGH WITH YOU!!!" Stephan snarled loudly, having finally caught up to the group, his Dark Sword drawn and ready to shed blood.

Meanwhile, Midoku found himself with conflicting feelings. He was both scared out of his mind of being captured again...

e_e+++ Yet extremely pissed that they had restrained him in the first place.

-\/-+++ He started to chant, knowing full well that his flame thrower spell would NOT be wise in a sewer. He had something much more appropriate in mind...

A massive wall started to form behind the Blue Mage, as he chanted with odd sounding grunts and whines.

e\/e+++ "...AQUA RAKE!!!!'" Midoku shouted, sending a massive tidal surge of water toward their foes.

by **Kotoki** » Wed Oct 02, 2002 3:49 pm

The magical spell was successful. Both men were absolutely soaked in water, swept several paces back. The first soldier was barely concious as he struggled to cough up water.

"Jake!" yelled the second, staring at the group wide-eyed with fear. "You F*cking foriegners!" Running back, he unlocked a box more than twice his size.

A box that contained a rather large griffin-like creature.

Kotoki looked around quickly for a weapon, but none were in sight. She decided that this was as good a time as any to try out something she'd been learning from Jak.

"Jolt!" she yelled, holding up a hand. That had was suddenly filled with lightning that rushed at the griffin to electrocute the creature.

The griffin, however, merely spread its wings and dodged the attack. Kotoki eeped slightly.

by **Jak Snide** » Fri Oct 04, 2002 1:47 pm

Jak repressed a sigh of annoyance. She was getting good. Well, of course she was, he taught her after all! But it was disappointing to see her miss, even if the target seemed to be annoyingly agile. He realised that he really should have taught her how to spread the spell out.

Which is exactly what he did, spreading his fingers wide and unleashing an arc of electricity at the creature, his attention diverted away from the remaining guard for now.

by **Kotoki** » Fri Oct 04, 2002 5:46 pm

Jak's attack proved to be at least mildly successful. The creature fell to the ground, stunned for a moment or so.

(Stephan!)

by **RPGWWer ChronoCatfish** » Fri Oct 04, 2002 6:54 pm

Devon quickly assessed the situation. THere was, quite plainly, a battle. It was a battle that, at this moment, did not contain Devon. His course of action decided, he charged into battle, longsword swinging.

by **Kotoki** » Fri Oct 04, 2002 7:36 pm

Devon's attack hit the still stunned griffin dead on. The creature recieved a nasty, and rather bloody, cut down its chest.

Squacking in pain, the griffin flew up into the air. In an agile motion, it swooped down and administered a scratch with razor sharp talons to the first attacker- Kotoki. The innkeeper held her arm and winced, but said nothing.

by **Jak Snide** » Fri Oct 04, 2002 8:47 pm

"Oi, f*ck you, you bloody buzzard!" Jak yelled, enraged by the fact that the creature had even dared to attack Kotoki, his voice raised to it's loudest.

by **FF Fanatic 80** » Fri Oct 04, 2002 10:43 pm

<\/<++ Sh*&... too dangerous to risk using fire... and I dunno how the f*&k the sewer didn't just f#$king explode from the lighting... Stephan growled to himself, trying to find some way to take care of these soldiers and ensure his beloved's safety.

>.>? Then he noticed Kotoki's injury... the rage building in Jak's eyes...

o.o

..........

>:-] "...ehehehe..."

-\/- The Dark Knight began to chant, swirling energies of cold air surrounding his hands. He gestured them toward the soldiers, aiming for the floor as he cried out his spell.

o\/o+++ "...ICE!!!!"

The spell proved successful- the two soldiers were encased in ice as glittering statues.

by **Jak Snide** » Mon Oct 07, 2002 3:11 pm

(OOC: Erm...who's turn is it? ^_^;; )

by **Kotoki** » Mon Oct 07, 2002 3:23 pm

(Krak's.)

by **KraKeN** » Mon Oct 07, 2002 4:23 pm

Seeing his hand to hand skills were thankfully and no longer needed Kraken sung his heavy crossbow down from his back and loosed a bolt at the griffin.

The griffin flew out of the bolt's path effortlessly. It seemed that where long range attacks were concerned, it would be difficult to deal with a flying adversary.

(Mid!)

by **FF Fanatic 80** » Wed Oct 09, 2002 6:13 pm

<.<;;; My goodness, that Griffon is quite agile... The Blue Wizard noted, watching the half bird/half cat effortlessly glide out of reach of the mercenary's weapon. Noting the two frozen soldiers posed no threat for the moment.

*^.^* ...and beaming for a brief moment at the Dark Knight...

6.6 He tried to think of some way he may be able to assist the others in attacking this creature.

Hmmm... the main advantage it has seems to be flight...

o.o

^_^

:"> -) ...perhaps I could 'disrupt' the creature's flight... Midoku smiled to himself, one of his fangs peaking out over his lip. Closing his eyes, he began to mutter again in odd grunts and gurgles. The air around the green-robed wizard and his nearby companions began to pick up, fragments of green mana making the increased airflow visible to everyone in the room. Midoku crossed his arms before his chest, seeming to gather the wind around his body as he faced the griphon. With a sudden jerk, he spread his arms wide out toward the griffon.

o\/o "AERO!"

The swirling gusts roared toward the griffon...

by **Kotoki** » Wed Oct 09, 2002 8:50 pm

The blasts of wind drove the creature from the air and back onto the ground. Even after the spell subsided, the griffin remained catching its breath.

Kotoki, able to do absolutely nothing, merely watched and chewed her lip worriedly.

(Jak!)

by **Jak Snide** » Thu Oct 10, 2002 3:34 pm

And Jak, being far from disability, unleashed a fusillade of ice, a score of meter long spears speeding towards the griffin, the mage being intent to make sure the creature didn't dodge this, or anything else ever again.

by **Kotoki** » Thu Oct 10, 2002 4:01 pm

The shards of ice speared the griffin through the whole body. The creature, giving one last inhuman shriek of pain, crumpled to the floor stone dead.

Kotoki blinked several times and prodded the body gently with her foot. "We can go now," she said cheerfully.

by **Jak Snide** » Thu Oct 10, 2002 4:05 pm

Dusting his hands off, more of a gesture of pride than an actual practical motion, Jak nodded to Kotoki, a grin on his face. Those foreign bastards were out of his hair, and he had her back now.

He didn't make a move though. He figured that the thief would want to loot, and that this wasn't the best time and place for hugs.

by **RPGWW ChronoCatfish** » Thu Oct 10, 2002 8:43 pm

"Now that that's over with," said Ashrem, "Would someone mind informing me of what in the hells is going on?"
"Not if you don't want your share of the treasure." said Devon, searching for loot.

by **Kotoki** » Thu Oct 10, 2002 8:50 pm

Brandon blinked several times and nodded. "Um... We just rescued Mr Midoku and Miss Kotoki, and now we're... looting the bodies of the monster and the soldiers, and then we're going to go get Alissa and go home, I think."

by **FF Fanatic 80** » Tue Oct 15, 2002 6:03 pm

Had Stephan been paying attention, he would of had a few choice words for the meak bard and his horrifyingly violent child sister. For starters, why the hell had those soldiers kidnapped his beloved and the overly perky Innkeeper? And of all places, why had they picked the f*&king SEWER for a hideout? He likely would have given Brandon a nice thorough inquisition about his involvement about this as well... but he had more important things to take care of.

Namely, dragging Midoku behind the tent flap and promptly glomping him to the ground.

;_; "I... I was so worried *sniffle*..." the Dark Knight chocked out, snuggling and smooching the surprised mage.

*>.@*;;; "S...Stephan I'm.... *PRRRR*..." Midoku let out, unable to hold back the slight purr, "... I'm... just fine now..." He carefully got the pair up, giving the Dark Knight a big hug around the waist....

by **Kotoki** » Tue Oct 15, 2002 6:53 pm

The pillagers discovered absolutely nothing that would be of use to them.

"Right, that's enough looting!" called Kotoki. "I want to get of the sewer, and I'm sure I'm not alone!"

Brandon smiled weakly at her. "Sorry about all the trouble, Miss Kotoki. Really... I didn't know my mother would stoop as low as kidnapping."

"Don't worry about it," replied the innkeeper with a wave of her hand. "I've been kidnapped plenty of times before."

The blonde boy blinked, but looked towards the exit of the sewer. "I want to head back and make sure Alissa's doing okay with those kids."

"Alissa? Kids?" asked Kotoki equolently. "Huh?" She nodded slowly as Brandon attempted to explain.

by **Jak Snide** » Wed Oct 16, 2002 5:52 am

Jak suddenly remembered the kids, smirking slightly, then moved to Kotoki's side, ready to leave when she began walking.

by **RPGWWer ChronoCatfish** » Wed Oct 16, 2002 8:54 pm

"I'll go check out what those kids are doing." said Devon, only slightly disappointed at the lack of treasure.

Ashrem leaned against one of the cleaner parts of a wall. His expression radiated calm. In reality, he was lost and waiting for someone to leave so that he could follow them.

by **Kotoki** » Wed Oct 16, 2002 9:07 pm

Kotoki nodded cheerfully. "Then let's go!"

The group began walking down the tunnel towards the break where Alissa and the kids were waiting for them.

They were met by Denim. The young boy was breathing heavily and wide-eyed in fear. "Help," he gulped, dirty tears falling down his face. "Teeny... Teeny is..."

Brandon, blinking several times, ran past him and into the room. Kotoki followed. Their mouths dropped open in unison.

Velvetine lay quietly propped up against a wooden box. Her overalls were stained purple with blood. A large gash in the side poured blood through the shirt bunched up against the wound. Cordroy sat beside her, wiping tears from her cheeks and turning her face away from the sight.

She looked up at them and smiled weakly. "I... tried to stop 'em..." she said. "I tried... not to let 'em get... her..."

Cordroy shook his head. "Don't talk! You're gonna keep bleedin if you talk!"

"No, it's... fine..." she replied, staring at the ceiling. "...They won't let me see... they won't... but... it's gotta be bad..." Taking a slow breath, she ended up bursting into fresh tears. "It hurts... oh, god... it hurts so much..."

Kotoki looked wildly around. "Does anyone here know white magic...?" she asked, ripping strips off her shirt methodically to make bandages. "I can't believe it... she's just a little girl..."

Brandon merely stared in horror.

by **RPGWWer ChronoCatfish** » Thu Oct 17, 2002 7:48 pm

"Here, I believe I can help."
Ashrem knelt over the bleeding child, and started saying the spell of healing.
"Who the hell would attack a kid?" Devon said angrily.

by **Kotoki** » Thu Oct 17, 2002 10:49 pm

The spell lessened the severity of the wound considerably. Velvetine smiled and reached up to touch Ashrem's arm before she drifted off to sleep.

Kotoki sighed in relief. "Oh, thank god..." she whispered, carefully bandaging the little girl without waking her up. "How long was she bleeding?"

"Not... not too long," stuttered Cordroy, seemingly at a loss. "They came in and they were all like 'give us the princess' and me and Dem kept quiet but Teeny tried to fight them and then they... they just, hurt her... and then the blonde girl said that was enough and they took her off that way."

by **Jak Snide** » Thu Oct 17, 2002 11:18 pm

Jak's blood was boiling. The sight of the mauled child had stirred something deep inside the mage, dredging up memories carefully barred away and invoking a dreadful rage in him again. But this time he had a higher cause. Before he had been concerned what these people had done to him, and she who was dear to him. Now he felt a sense of duty. Only someone truly monstrous would attack and injure a mere child that way.

Not speaking a word, he silently swore on his life he'd see the bastard who'd done this dead.

by **FF Fanatic 80** » Fri Oct 18, 2002 3:34 pm

Midoku hurried for a potion, hoping it would assist the spell in curing the child's terrible wounds.

-_-;; ...humans can be such... 'monsters' sometimes... he thought to himself. He approached Ashrem and the child with the potion in his hand, offering it to him to help with the injuries.

...I've heard so many times... 'how can someone DO this to a child'... Midoku continued to think, recalling brief instances of his own childhood, ...yet it happens all the time... everyday... it even happened to me... v.v...

-_- ...even with people like Daniel, or Mr. Hakaril, or Mr. Kilmett...

...or my love...

v.v ...sometimes I wonder about humanity...

As the Blue Wizard thought to himself, Stephan was also thinking about their current predicament, never taking his eyes off the injured child.

...poor kid... must hurt like a b*&ch...

As he stared, his eyes seemed to narrow a bit, something... 'odd' going on with them.

...so many wounds... why... just adding the right cuts and gashes... she'd be hurting even MORE... and LONGER...

A tiny smile appeared for a moment on the Dark Knight's face, his irises seeming to narrow.

the cries... the screams o...

>_<;; O_O;;

...what the hell's f*&king wrong with me?! Stephan thought, the smile instantly disappearing, his eyes closing shut. The Blue Wizard noticed the odd behavior, getting up and turning around.

o.o? "...Stephan?" Midoku asked, walked over to his significant other, "...what's wrong? "

-_- "...n..nothing's wrong..." Stephan told him, turning to face away from the group.

"Something's the matter, isn't it?" Midoku asked, continuing toward him as he spoke, "Surely you can tell me, you know I won't mind at a..."

>.< "...I SAID I'M F*&KING FINE GODDAMMIT!!!"

The wizard stopped dead in his tracks, taken aback at the Dark Knight's harshness toward him. Stephen partially turned his face back toward Midoku, but stopped, looking to the groud.

6\/6 "...j...just leave me alone for awhile..."

Before anyone could respond, he was out of that section of the sewer. Where too, only the few creatures inhabiting the undergroud area were certain at that moment.

Ã³.Ã² ...what's wrong with him...? Midoku wondered. He wanted to go after him, but he knew that talking to Stephan like this would do no good. So he forced himself to stay, turning back to the group to see what was going on...

(OOC: ...and that post only took me 3 hours!

!)

Kotoki watched Stephan leave, blinking several times. Her eyes turned back to Velvetine and she shook her head. "I think... I think I should really take her back and find a temple. She needs some rest, and time to recover... Do either of you know where Teeny's mother lives?" she asked Denim and Cordroy.

"Nuh-uh." said Den, looking somewhat frightened. "Teeny's mommy is scary when she's mad. I'm not gonna tell her about this!"

"Yeah!" added Cord. "She's not allowed to be in the sewer anyway!"

Kotoki smiled and sighed. "All right. I guess if she gets help quickly, things won't be so bad." She carefully took the sleeping child into her arms and headed for the exit back to the inn.

Which was, coincidently, exactly where Stephan was walking.

by **Jak Snide** » Sat Oct 19, 2002 7:57 am

Jak followed without a word. Retribution would have to wait.

In the mean time, he contented himself with plotting just how he'd butcher the bastard who'd done this.

by **RPGWWer ChronoCatfish** » Sat Oct 19, 2002 12:18 pm

"I mean, what freaking bastard would try to kill a kid?" Devon kept asking. He knew at least one answer to that, but he was sure that in this case, it wasn't the right one.
"A snivelling coward, bereft of all honor." Ashrem answered, almost conversationally. There was, however, an edge in his voice.

by **Jak Snide** » Tue Oct 29, 2002 3:00 pm

(OOC: This RP will not die out like Sailor H Wing. Please. ^_^)

by **KraKeN** » Tue Oct 29, 2002 3:16 pm

"Kids can be annoying however", Kraken added (slightly annoyed himself there had been nothing to pilage), "and so someone with poor self control or just impatients may think to remove such a defencless obstruction rather than reasoning with it."

by **Kotoki** » Wed Oct 30, 2002 2:11 am

(Sorry. *So* sorry. -_-;;;; Bad lazy GM.)

"Annoying?" asked Den, sticking out his tongue. It was obvious the boy was starting to recover from his earlier shock. "We're not annoying!"

"Damn straight!" added Cord. He smiled sheepishly as his stomach rumbled. "Say... anybody have food? We've been down here for a while."

Brandon was standing absolutely still, oblivious to the conversation. His mind was trying to wrap itself around a thought.

This was his fault. All of this was his fault.

An observant person, at this point, would have noticed Brandon's eyes glowing and suddenly flashing to a paler shade of green. They narrowed.

It wasn't exactly his fault, after all. He knew who was to blame. He stalked off into the unexplored tunnel, harp slung over his shoulder like a sword.

by **Jak Snide** » Wed Oct 30, 2002 4:45 pm

Jak followed the bard, now that the role of "meat shield" had been filled. Regardless of how much he wanted to skewer the one responsible for injuring the girl on an icicle, he wasn't going in first.

by **KraKeN** » Wed Oct 30, 2002 5:57 pm

Kraken followed his current employer down the tunnel.
