"NO!!!!" Larry screamed and began to work a detailed pattern as the familiar of Neb's jumped from it's perch upon his shoulder, and as Neb's magical power was beginning to be unleashed, and as the arrow was coming to seek his life...in that instant, Larry completed a time-stop spell.
All stood still...All except for the arrow.
Larry could not understand how the arrow was still in flight! Only having time enough to swerve a little to the left, the arrow struck hard, landing in the right-side of his chest, piercing his lung, and sending a massive blast of energy-lightning coursing through his body. The magical attack on him caused by the arrow made the time-stop spell fail prematurely, and everyone was again free to move. Larry grabbed at the arrow and yelled in anger as he ripped it from the wound. He looked at the arrow as he fell to his knees, and as blood was dripping from his lips, he smirked at Spree and said..."Oh...one of Cyril's arrows, eh? Your own not good enough for you? He was too damned of a coward to show his face here and deliver this himself? Eh??? He had to get a girl to do his job for him??? Do you not even realize that your precious fool of a boy-friend Deiter is still here, in my dungeon! If I die, then you lose him forever, fool! At this time, as we speak, he has been undergoing some changes...~cough~some...some changes that are permanent! Hehe...~cough~ The spell only requires him to drink the blood of a wolf that he may turn into the most horrible undead creation that I have ever made! I have now released him with my thoughts...and he will soon be feeding from a wolf that I had captured just outside! So I say to you...do what you think best. Finish me now...or save the wolf AND Deiter at the same time. It's in your hands now...if he dies...for you still have time. What will you both choose?" Larry gets up from his fallen location, looks to Neb then, stumbles over to his throne, wiping the blood from his mouth on his robe sleeve.
Sitting down, he speaks to Neb..."Neb...Kill Morgie now in a most horrible manner. You have nothing else to worry about from these girls. They know what needs to be done." Larry sat back and closed his eyes, trying to catch his breath.
