(OOc - Jak, there is a HUGE axe moments away of parting Kilra's head from her shoulders...)
"Damn," muttered Grayn, as he and Phibs quickly wound up their crossbows, judging correctly that they had one more go until the pair reached them.
"YEARGH! FIRE! THEY'VE GOT A MAGE!" Screamed one of the mercenaries in the main group, dropping to the ground and rolling around, trying to put out the illusionary flames. Two crossbow bolts flashed over where he had been standing a moment before, one of them speeding off into the distance, where it would eventually fall to the earth, the other embedding itself in another of the mercenary's armour, just piercing the leather, and making him stop and try to pin Kraken's position, seeing him he pointed with his spear at the theif and broke out into a trot in his direction "That's a new set of armour, yer gonna pay for that. Yer a dead man!"
At this moment Rixy and Hearsako jumped from their hiding positions. Hearsako aimed his bow and Blaze, and fired a shot he had been lining up for some time, heading straight for it's target. Rixy pulled out her broad sword and followed Hearsako's shot. HEarsako was an xperienced archer, and knew not to see whether he hit or not, but as soon as he had let the first shaft fly he was fitting another one, and aimed at Blaze again, this time his aim was not perfect, but might hit if Blaze didn't dodge to his right, towards Rixy.
At this point Phibs and Grayn had reloaded, and both got of a hurried shot, Phibs' shot again headed a little off its target, and hummed past Aya's ear, but this time Grayn got a hit, his crossbow bolt thudding into Ara's stomach area.
(OOC - Okay, combat order is just going to go you guys in any order, then the bandits in any order, then you guys etc etc... Remember your objective is to get this over as quickly as possible, so you can pursue the Huntsman again.)
