Isaura

"N...no." ~ She shakes her head vigorously ~ "Of course not... I won't let you." ~ Aware of how ludicrous her pathetic words of consolation are ~ "Y..you'll be fine... but..." ~ Swallows a gulp ~ "...we'll need to get those arrows out fast." ~ Hurriedly extracting her veil and thrusting it at him ~ "I could try to yank them out for you... if you trusted me."

The hammering on her head intensifying as she continues in half-panic ~ "You could chew on that i... if it were too unbearable a pain." ~ Her glittering eyes anxiously studying Raymond's response.

Attalus · 03-11-2002, 06:47 PM

SIR BLANDAMOUR "Well, now, who's this? A boy with a sword? Who are you friend, and where did you acquire your chatty weapon?

mistral4543 · 03-11-2002, 07:06 PM

Vane

"I will not grovel and beg for your mercy, Your Highness, if that is what you expect." ~ His quiet voice nevertheless ringing in the room ~ "I have done all that I could to find the princess, and failed. This is true." ~ Looking squarely into the king's eyes ~ "That does not mean that I did any wrong, for which I must apologise." ~ Heaven and Earth, Vane, why must you spout such moral statements? This must surely be the day you meet your maker...

Cedric

He watches the anguish playing upon the youth's handsome features, a smirk forming on his own lips ~ Torn between damned pride and fear for his life. Haha!! ~ A muscle involuntarily twitching on the left of his face ~ This ought to be interesting...

Aloud ~ "So you consider you did nothing wrong, Vane." ~ His conversational tone well-mastered over the years ~ "You do have a point there..." ~ Noting the whiff of relief flit past the young man's face ~ "... but you know that I don't stand for failure of any sort." ~ Coughs exaggeratedly ~ "I would hardly wish my future son-in-law to be so... incompetent." ~ Fiendish delight filling his sadistic heart as he takes in Vane's tormented expression.

Vane

Future son-in-law. ~ How wonderful that word sounded. Yet he had seen Eliza's flighty nature often enough ~ I bet she's never loved me. ~ The thought delivers a violent punch into his stomach, he feels himself losing it ~ Maybe she accepted me earlier only by default ~ Yet more depressing thoughts ~ Has she ever known true love as I did? ~ Flushing as he hears the sudden chuckle in the background.

Cedric

"I see that I've hit a raw spot, my dear fellow." ~ Immensely enjoying himself now ~ The fool... my dear Eliza was quite right never to have taken him seriously. ~ Indulgence wearing itself comfortably on his rugged face ~ "So you find yourself doubting your abilities and her estimation of your worth, do you not?" ~ The soothing tone most repugnant to the ears ~ "Don't worry, my lad. You'll get over it... I'll see to that." ~ Ah yes, I'll make sure of that...

Vane

Sensing the half-insane emotion frothing from each pore of Cedric's body, he takes a deep breath ~ "My fate is in your hands." ~ I've been your bloody pawn all this while, haven't I? ~ Railing at himself inwardly ~ You moron! You thought you were different to him, but no... you are just like the rest... utterly dispensable. ~ Struggling to retain his composure ~ It won't be too long now, I suppose...

Cedric

"Thank you for making things easier for me, Vane." ~ His voice suddenly devoid of emotion, his eyes freezing into an icy blue ~ "Guards!" ~ The booming drawing his men into the room hastily ~ "Take him away and deal with him." ~ Turns away and strides off with remarkable energy, never looking back once.

Vane

Deal with him. ~ How neutral it sounded. Yet he knew what it meant. How many times had he heard this phrase, so that it almost desensitised himself over time? And now it had been uttered at him. There was only one meaning to the dreaded line.

The end...

As she nears the city, she slows and rides into the trees, getting off her horse, and putting a gloved hand over his nose. ~quiet, my beauty....~...She pulls the hood of her cloak up, and waits, glowing eyes watching the road........

Attalus · 03-11-2002, 08:17 PM

SIR BLADAMOUR (to TAO) "Milady, what do you see? Are your attuned senses detecting anything?"

Larry_OHF · 03-11-2002, 08:34 PM

Raymond

Only nodding his head in agreeance and feeling an overwhelming fear, yet relying on Isaura to save him, he turned his head, wadded the scarf up into a knot and placed it in his mouth. He clenched his fists tightly around it and began to sweat, not knowing how bad this was going to be. Suddenly, he felt a hard jerk and he thought his very soul had been stripped from him. No preparation could have prepared him for the feeling of the exit of that horrible weapon from his body. His screams were half drowned in the knotted scarf and his vision was blurred by the tears. Even over his own anguish, he could hear Isaura crying out in the awful knolwedge that she was doing this to him. He quickly calmed down and shook his head, trying to clear his vision. He took her trembling hand in his and nodded to her, trying to assure her that he was okay. He needed her to be strong now...and carry this terrible burdon. There was still one more arrow. He felt her take ahold of it, and he let go of her hand. This time, he did not turn his head, but stared right into her eyes. If he was to die, he wanted her to be the last beautiful thing around that he saw. Without warning, the arrow was jerked up and out, being thrown to the ground behind them. The sick ripping feeling that was caused was somehow worse than the first time, yet Raymond managed not to scream. He kept his eyes locked on Isaura and tried to remain awake, but sleep was quickly coming. His eyes were getting too heavy to hold up. He tried to rasie his hand, but could not feel it. He was slipping away.

OOC>>>Come on y'all! Give it up for drama "king!"

OOC>>> [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] You're no way near as dramatic as me, Larry

Isaura

Watching her beloved drift off into a more merciful release from what can only be pure agony, she heaves a sigh of relief. Suddenly feeling sticky, she glances down to discover her entire body drenched in perspiration. A slight groan and stir draws her attention once more to Raymond.

The bravest man she had ever known.

His wounds... they're raw... ~ Yet the memory of how Joy had escaped her while left alone returns to haunt her ~ How can I heal him without leaving him? ~ She unclasps her cloak, wrapping it around the injurious parts. Then closes her eyes, praying fervently that the gods will save her beloved once again...

TAOWolf · 03-11-2002, 09:26 PM

As she watches the road, she feels a presence in her mind of a young girl, desperately praying to the Gods.....~waht is this?~ She feels for the young girl, and senses she is somewhere in the town ahead..........

OOC: should I re-write, or is that okay?

Attalus · 03-11-2002, 10:05 PM

OOC>> Oh, TAO, you worry too much. It's great, sugar. (ducks his head from the wrath to come) IC>>
SIR BLANDAMOUR (to TAO) "Yes, call it as you will, I feel it, too. Call it an old Paladin's foible, if you must, but I feel a soul in need of our presence."

Larry_OHF · 03-11-2002, 10:53 PM

OOC>>>Question...

How fast should I have Raymond's new regeneration ability work?

I am new at Were-panther abilities...~:blushes:~
