OOC>>>I haven't seen that one!

Jaime

The rear two thieves were ignoring the oncoming sword of Galadria, the man on the charging horse, and the magic of the old man. They saw an easy kill with this thief, and were going to take his life. They broke off from one another to be on either side of Jaime, and he tried desparately to keep his eyes on both attackers, but could not keep it up. Suddenly he realized that the one on his left had disappeared! Looking over his shoulder in the direction of the other one proved just as terrible. Now they were both gone! He listened intently, hoping to hear a rustle of a boot or see movement in the grass, but could see nothing. He slashed out in anguish at open air. He spun around and slashed behind him. He spun around and around trying to catch his blade on one of the invisible fiends. Then, he remembered that he should warn the others. "There are two thieves hiding in shadows, and I can't find them!" Getting more scared and certainly more desparate, Jaime spun around and around, trying to keep the unseen attackers away from him...He had given up on trying to see them.
"Where are you, damn bastards?! Where are y.....errrrrhhh..." Jaime looked down to see a blade protruding out of his stomach. He fell to the ground, as the blade exited out of his torso, and looked up. A man was coming into focus, smiling.

"Now, you lie right there, and I am going to go play with your friends!"

The man ran into the shade of an Oak and dissappeared again. Jaime could not think, only feel the pain and the on-coming cold. He tried to raise his head up to shout at Galadria or even Rrang, but saw nothing except blackness. Failing to get up, Jaime laid there and began to wonder how his friends would do. Surely they had almost beaten the attackers off, and now, maybe only those last two remained...Sleep was coming quickly, and Jaime was tired of thinking. He felt the welcoming comfort of sleep begging him to just let go.
And he did.

Now, the two thieves that are hiding in shadows make their quiet way over to the rest of the party, thier blades coated with poison.

Azure

Azure was overhearing conversation at a thief hide out. Apparently, a number of them had heard horses' hooves galloping along the road a few miles up and decided to go see if they could take anything from them. Azure thought that they may be talking about the same party that she was looking for. There were too many bandits here in this camp to kill them all by herself, so she quietly sneeked off and began to run along the open road, hoping that she could catch up to the attackers in time to lend aid. Yet, the bandits had at least an hour's head start on her. Still she ran on.

OOC>>> I just finished watching Harvey on the PC [img]tongue.gif[/img] It's pretty good, though I'd say anything with James Stewart is perfect

Oh yes, Chinese New Year is coming up, so I'll have 2 public holidays (yippee!!) [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] First day (Monday night to you folks) would be occupied with visiting family and friends, but second day (your Tuesday night) I should be hanging around home. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Rrang

Seeing the girl charge off into combat instead of standing back, Rrang knew he had little choice but to dive in after her. While she was fumbling with her round sword he used the butt of his spear to deflect a blow heading towards her neck, before reversing his grip on the weapon and thrusting it into the man's shoulder.
In agony, the thief dropped his sword and rolled away. He would probably draw his knife and scramble to his feet, but was not a danger for now.
In fact, the battle seemed to come to an end already. Several thieves were on the ground, and two had dissapeared completely.

Where those two had gone he didn't know. Maybe a spell from the mage had evaporated them, but the ranger was sure he would have noticed.
Suddenly he snarled, as he picked up a scent from his left. With the wind blowing as it did, it could not be one of those fighting. But it's smell was just like that of the other thieves.
Rrang jumped in to guard his cub's back from the unseen adversary.

Galadria · 02-09-2002, 02:26 PM

OOC>>Yay, Legolas is back! IC>>
GALADRIA (Thinking that all of the thieves had been dispatched, she is surprised to se Rrang charge at something. She spurs her horse in that direction, and is surprised to see a thief materialise and grapple with the ranger.) "Sir Blandamour! To me! There are shadowy foes here yet. Let us surround Sorsha with our sword arms out."

Sorsha

Now quite safely encircled by her group of loyal friends, she glances around anxiously, counting them. A wrinkle appears on her forehead ~ "Jaime!" ~ As if right on cue, her eyes land on the crumpled body on the ground a few paces away, the blades of the grass tainted with blood ~ "Jaime is hurt!"

Dalben

Muttering the words of enchantment once again, he concentrates on his goal, closing his eyes. As he disappears from sight, the rest of the group blinks as if half-dazed...

Now secure in the knowledge of his "improved invisibility" state, he rushed forward to attempt to heal Jaime with one of his many potions. Yet, he had arrived too late. Jaime's body was lifeless, as the poison had quick effect on him. Looking at the young man laying there brought a tear to the old man's eye. "Ye were a good lad. Maybe in the wrong profession, but your heart was pure and your deeds were noble. Sleep well, friend."

Raymond

Raymond felt comforted by Isaura's voice. It was warm and soothing, and certainly full of love. How his life had changed! He used to be a farm boy, whittling a stick on the front porch at dusk.

Not feeling pain, but weariness instead, he managed to stand up and stretch his muscles. He felt...strange...he felt...like his muscles were tighter and strengthened.

"That is odd...I feel tired, but great! Like I have just taken a long rest and have been replinished of strength and health. I wonder if that is a side-effect to the old man's healing potion? In truth, I had never had a potion in my life until I came here. I don't know how they react to one's body."

Looking at Isaura for the first time since he had arisen, he was surprised at what he saw. She was different, too. Her face beamed with radiance. Her hair smelled sweet and desirous. Her shy smile caused by his staring gaze was made by lips that were soft and inviting. Without thought, he leaned in and took that invitation, most hungrily. Her initial shock of this turn of events made Isaura jump, startled...but Raymond calmly put his arms round her, one to her back and the other behind her head, and eased her forward to bring her lips tighter into his.

mistral4543 · 02-10-2002, 12:57 AM

Isaura

The feel of his lips against hers and his more assertive arms sends her heart throbbing in a wild rhythm it had almost forgotten in years. Gasping, she finds herself melting into the embrace, even responding in kind, so powerful are the emotions pushing her thus. Time seems to freeze as they remain locked in this position, sampling the bliss of showing affection.

Help me... ~ Her self-control ebbing away, she surrenders to the song of love, hearing the resounding chorus in her heart.

Larry_OHF · 02-10-2002, 01:26 AM

¿¿¿Raymond???

Feeling her return the passion was exhilerating, and he began to sway to and fro as in a slow dance, never wanting to breathe again for fear of the release of her lips. Yet death by kissing suffication was not to happen at this time, as they heard in the distance the old man of the farm ringing his dinner bell. They would have to answer his call. Relucantly, they mutually agreed to end the lustful embrace. Then, turning towards the sound of the bell, they picked up their baskets of vegetables and made their way back down the grassy hill.

mistral4543 · 02-10-2002, 01:30 AM

And thus did the couple hurry to reciprocate the kindness of the old man by preparing the food. The latter smiled at the aroma of the food and the three settled to have another meal in companionable silence.

When the meal was over, Isaura insisted on cleaning up the dishes and bade Raymond and the old man to take a rest. Or if they preferred to have a chat by themselves. Humming to herself, she found herself blushing intermittently whenever she thought of her new love.
