The War

[db_pr]

Diego evaded some arrows and then turned to KsK8ter's character and told him Forget the plan, we'll improvise! The he turned towards the lion and the tiger Come Rotria you and your troops come here! He led them to one side and said Cover me, this is gonna take something out of me... Then just after Rotria killed 3 soldiers with just a move of his hand he started talking in the Speech... when he finished, all of the attacking forces were inside the fortress and every wizard and soldiers from Evangelion Were outside. They had flipped. Trap them inside the fortress, Nightshade, Marama, Martina, Ged! He shouted while he trapped them too. The more people who do it the more it will hold them inside! Though not for very long!
************************************************** **************
Ged trapped them in and started organizing things with Questing, Move your troops to the sides He told to Questing, So that when they get out, they can attack and kill a lot Then he shouted at every wizard I WANT EVERY WIZARD AT THE SIDES, THE GATE IS IN THE CENTER SO WHEN THEY GET OUT WE'LL HAVE ADVANTAGE ON THEM!

"Right!" gasped the still-white Letalis, panting. "Ice, CHANGE! And I'll try to become invisible..." Letalis becomes a waver in air, and Ice stretches, reclines, and becomes a mountain dragon, still ice white. A quiver of arrows is lifted into the air, then becomes part of the ripple, headed steadily for the side. The gates burst open. Wizards and soldiers streamed out, several drumming or carrying banners. The murmur of a spell in the Speech passes their lips, but Saffron and Letalis (or air) interfered with the circle and broke the death spell. "MARTINA!!!!"

On top of the wall, Martina hissed through her teeth and clenched her fists, glaring down at the mercenaries. She bit off a few more choice words before flipping into an alien language and beginning a slow chant. Filled with sharp sounds it snapped out of her mouth pulling tension from the air. Her voice growing louder, she finished with a shout, and a bang. The air stiffened and a light began to grow on the battlefield, a burning red which exploded, scattering merceneries left and right.

Martina gave a nod- the jerked again and spun around.
"Marama. If they're inside- I have to go! Keep them up here-" She pulled her plait forward and untied it frantically, then ran her fingers through and jerked several strands out, wincing. She knotted them into a single strand and they glowed red, twisting and flickering and _growing_ until she held a burning cord in her hands. Looking at Letalis she dragged it around the top of the wall and handed the end to her sister, who sank her claws into it. "You know what to do with this. It should stop arrows, swords, most war wizardries- but watch for the other ones- it can't do anything about hybrids."

Rysadeh kicked the door open to reveal a winding staircase upward. It was pretty empty. They stepped in, looking up. It appeared to go up quite a way.

"Ookay. Let's go," said Rysadeh. Roux grunted and started hopping up the steps three at a time. They passed two landings, before the stairs ended in another wooden door. Roux moved to the far side, noting the door swung outwards. Roux crouched by the hinges, waiting for it to open. Taking a deep breath, Rysadeh kicked the door hard, and it splintered open. Roux pounced on the guard standing on the other side, tossing him over the side into the interior of the castle. Stepping through, Rysadeh threw a quick fireball at the other defenders on the wall.

Roux threw a glance at the massive army waiting outside the castle wall, and then surveyed the defenders. He paused. "Y'know, there's a lot more of them," he said, jerking his head toward the army of evil, "than there are of them."

"You mean, more stuff to kill?"

"Yeah, that's what I mean."

"So, we should switch sides," Rysadeh mused. "Sure. Here," and he pulled two pipes out from his bag. The lit them, and calmly smoked while waiting to be noticed by their new allies, the wizards.

Martina sprinted down through the castle, flashing past tapestries and varied coats of armour. She skidded round a corner, and came face to face with the pair of turncoats. Pulling up quickly, she grabbed a sword out of- apparently- nowhere, and pointed it at them.
"Stand. Now." She said, evenly, narrowing her eyes at them down the pale blade. "And put them out. Filthy habit."

Ged after saying that to Quelt he yelled: IF THEY'RE INSIDE THE FORTRESS! WE BURN THE FORTRESS DOWN WITH THEMSELVES INSIDE IT!!
************************************************** *************
Now that's what I'm talking about thought diego after hearing Ged Let's go Sirius, James! He said while he mounted Sirius and flew nearer to the fortress...

*Suddenly, the plain outside the fortress is milling with the former defenders, and the attacking armies are nowhere to be seen. Questing materialized about 4 inches above ground level, and fell straight onto her tuckus.*

"Ow!! What happened? Where are all the bad guys? Who did the unauthorized worldgate?? And why didn't we do this earlier, if it was this easy to get rid of them?"

Letalis mutters a few words that would pollute this post, then is fully visible again. She whistles for Ice, who flies up like a giant glass figurine. "I'll see you guys in a few hours. I'll go scry in the Moonlit Lake." She mounts Ice, the soars off in a burst of flame, disappearing in the night air.

"Er," said Rysadeh, looking past Martina to the army just below. "Didn't everyone use to be somewhere else?"

"Huh," said Roux. He blew a cloud of smoke toward Martina. She made a face. Roux smiled. "'Kay. Getting up..."

They stood, stretching. Rysadeh looked to Roux, who nodded. Sure. The extinguished the pipes.

(OOC: Perhaps we should be more explicit when the setting changes... I didn't notice either.)

Diego: *WINCE* My bad. OK, then everyone _else_ CAN BE OUTSIDE. _Martina_ is inside. And she doesn't want to get burned alive, so wait for me to beat up these smokers and _then_ we can leave.

Martina glanced down at the army, and her eyebrows shot up.
"What do you know. Uh. Yes. One moment. Don't move!" She glared at them again for emphasis, waved the sword threateningly, and stared out on the plain searching for a small group of figures. Blinking hard, she squinted- and found them. Ged! What's happening?

She turned her attention back to the mercenaries. "Are you moving? Don't move!"

OOC: I just realized my last post used every one of the "W" question words, except for "how" (which doesn't begin with "w", anyways!)

When did "bishie" become slang on this forum for "evil-but-cute"?

bishes are not neccesarily evil. I mean, you don't have to be evil to be a pretty boy (that's the translation, which everyone here should know...) However, I guess the idea is that all that prettiness goes to their heads and gets them in trouble... especially Dave, who went rather strange and started combing his Long Leonine Hair(TM).
Heh.

OOC: Um, guys...I don't have that much time anymore and I'm really really lost anyway, so I'm going to have to kill off my characters.

Back-at-the-war-for-the-last-time:

Nightshade had spent more power than she could afford. The energy Diego had given her was fading fast, and the world seemed to spin...darken...and then there was nothing.

OOC again: In case you didn't catch that, Nightshade just died in a conveniently concise manner. But Tui says she might want Marama maybe, so I'm leaving her up.
