"Halt!" A commanding voice took a second's attention from the big burly man, who was kicking the poor fighter wildly. "In the name of Helm, stop this maddness!" Carlos stepped down his warhorse, and came to intercept the big burly man.
"This man" he pointed to Delita "He is my friend. I'll be forced to defend him if you continue your violence. I do not wish a fight with you however. May we find a peaceful way to settle this?" His hand was beside his long sword and will be ready in an instance if the big burly man assualts. Carlos is on alart, listening for the sound of wind, ready to dodge missle attacks. He scanned the area as he talks, looking for signs of ambush. His appearance is none-threatening, with a sense of calmness about. |

"I am thinking, Gharloz, this man is not wanting to talk. I am also thinking, they are not being afraid of scary beast like me."
Ni Deng took another step back. |

The big man snarled angrily "There will be no talks!" He gave another kick to the fighter on the ground, then waved his huge sword to the paladin.
Carlos had taken a step back immediately when he heard the snarl, knowing the incoming battle was unavoidable. He frowned to the strange monk as his long sword appeared in his hand in a blinking second. "It is Carlos." He raised his sword to deflect the next blow as he talked "Carlos, my friend." The big man pressed the onslaught, and made a crosscut from upper right to lower left, meaning to cleave the paladin in half. The paladin took a big step forward swiftly, knowing full well the danger, he brought himself closer to the big man, and intercepted the attack at where the impact is weakest. (closeest point to the wielder) He felt a huge hand around his left arm, "as expected" he smiled as he brought up his knee cap and slammed it into the big man's belly. The man groaned in pain. "It'd hurt more if my knee cap is embladed." Carlos ensured his victim. Then he rain down a punch into the man's face with the hilt of his sword, then another punch. "Must get away before the brute recovers" Carlos slammed the third punch, but took a hit in return as the man punched his rib forcefully. The punch hurted more than Carlos expected, but he had no time to feel the pain for he must get out of the deadly grip before this man does any more damage. He slammed his face into the big man's nose. The brute yelled in the unexpected pain, blood running free from his broken nose, but he fiercely punched the paladin once more in the ribs, and who rammed his nose for a second time. It was too much for the brute, he let go the hold on the paladin's left arm, and pushed the furious attacker away. All the while backing off from Carlos, waving his sword defensively. Carlos knows better than to give the man any chance to recover, he pressed onward, and yelled Helm's name gloriously. The big man's sword is now working like a drunkman, aimless and pointless. The paladin intercepted one blow, then hit forcefully on the sword second time, then third time to push it away, leaving an open for himself to make the kill... Instead, he aimed his killing blow on the big man's sword wielding arm, and pointedly drove the sword into the man's hand. A painful groan escaped the man's already blood covering lips, his sword fell to the ground and made a loud clashing sound. "Helm forgives you. Now take your leave and clean your wounds. Do not seek revenge on us. For the next time, death will come swiftly." After that, the paladin backed away calmly from the wounded man, but never taking his eyes off him. |

Larry had been in bed, sleeping in late when the battle ensued. He had awoke at the sounds of yelling outside his window, which faced the docks. Raising the window, he peered out and saw a huge brute attempting to slay his comrads. Turning around and grabbing his long bow and an arrow, Larry returend to the window to see that the fighting had stopped momentarily and it was a stand off to decide if the brute wanted to continue, or give up. Larry nocked the arrow into the bow and took careful aim.
Yelling out at his friends he said, "I got you covered, my friends. Just say the word." |

The big man, half bending, held his wounds and grunted loudly. "must... must... must stop them... must stop them must stop!!!" Suddenly he look up, a pair of orbs glowed red
"must... must... must... MUST!!!!" as he mumbled incoherently, his muscle began to inflate all around him. His head became twice of the normal size, and twisted in a bizzare angle, tongue dropping out, and white drools dripping. His red eyeballs glowed brighter as he became bigger and bigger. Carlos was on alert instantly, he sensed great evil intensifying around this big brute all of a sudden. "Scatter!" He called out, and to the archer he shouted "hold your fire!" Running at the same time, he leaped on his horse back, and turned about to face the big man, now almost five times bigger than before. The paladin stared the man in disbelief, then he forced himself back to reality. He pulled his horse up high, as the horse's front legs kicked in the air, yelling "Hey you! I am going to the citidal!" As he finished the sentence, he pulled his warhorse over and ran with full speed. He heard a bizzare shouting behind him as he ran towards river. Head turning, he was shocked that the man had matched his horse's speed well. Just as he charged near the river, he leaped off his horse back and went a side roll on the dock. Carlos had a satisfying smile on his face as he heard the big man couldn't halt his own momentume and ran into river after his horse. His smile disappeared as a tremendous explosion came below him, and threw his body into the air. The last thing he saw was water dragging him along with broken docks into the bottomless darkness... |

"What the hell!?"
Larry dropped the bow and jumped out of the window, running as fast as he could to get to the docks. Today had started out interesting...and he hadn't even had breakfast yet. There would be hell to pay for that... |

As Larry came closer to the docks, he saw people staring into the murky water but nobody was going after the man...
"Nobody's going to die yet!!! It is too ear..." Larry jumped into the water, hitting his arm on a broken plank as he leaped in. It cut his arm rather badly, but he continued to dive lower, feeling around and trying to locate the unfortunate companion to take a morning bath. Coming up for air, he saw the onlookers rather anxious and upset. Many of them had already given up hope. "Damn it!" Larry dove back into the water dived as low and as fast as he could until he thought that he bumped into someting. He reached out and grabbed what seemed to be an arm. It was attached to a heavy object that Larry concluded had to be a body. Swimming up with this load, Larry breached the surface with his burdon. It was indeed the fallen hero. the rest of the team reached into the waters and pulled them both up and began to work emergency procedures on the unconcious, near drowned guy. |

Delita Hyral
Delita lay a small ways down the street with his sword clutched in his right hand, still unconcious. His mouth was bloody but he would be alright in a few hours with the help of a cleric...

The black robed mage hands a cloth and a small potion of healing to Delita. "Have a sip, then pass it on to Larry."
"Why did you not help?" his companions asked. "I thought you had it under control", the mage replied. "Now, on to the citidel". |
