* Krensky turns onto the campus, driving slowly. The
(in)security guard pays no notice to the silver sportscar as it
pulls into an unoccupied space in a parking lot. He gets out and
motions for the others to do the same.
* Relapse holds his door open for the others, after
hopping out himself
* `Shadow gets out of the car and stretches
* AmberHawk unfolds herself from the back seat, stretching
before sliding her swordbelt to her back
:: It's a cool night with a slight breeze.
Crickets and ciccadas can be heard, along with the usual sounds
of a college campus on a Tuesday night. It'd almost be pleasent...
were it not for the full moon wreathed in black clouds and the
impending battle. ::
* AmberHawk looks around the area with interest
<Krensky> Ok... it's 9:15 now...
their window opens in ten minutes... this way.
* `Shadow observes her surroundings
* Relapse spots the aura of the moon through the clouds,
smiling slightly and taking a deep breath before following Kren
* `Shadow stretches a bit more and follows Kren as
well
* Krensky starts walking briskly across the quad next
to the lot towards a large brick building.
* AmberHawk
nods, and follows, keeping a few steps behind the others
Western
Michigan University -- Generic Dormatory
* `Shadow pauses for a second beside one of the buildings,
reaching into the shadows there, concentrating and pulling out her
hakarr.. 5 feet long, silver sword with 7 bladed barbs
:: As you get closer you see that it's
apparently a dormitory, a security door seems to be the only
way in. ::
* `Shadow shifts to sokto to carry the thing and catches
up to the rest
<Krensky> Half of my men and the sergent are
in the lounge, the other half and my sapper are on the roof. Which
group do you want to be with?
<AmberHawk> <q> I would
go to the roof, if that meets with your approval?
* Krensky nods
<Krensky> Anyone have a problem with that?
<`Shadow> not me
<Relapse> Nope. I'll go lounge.
* Krensky turns the security door handle, the light
above it flashes green and he pulls the door open.
<`Shadow> I'll go to the lounge as well.. if it's okay
with you
<Krensky> Hurry in before the alarm goes off.
* Relapse hurries through said door
* `Shadow follows after Lapse
* AmberHawk nods, stepping through
* Krensky
follows in, and the door closes behing, latching with a ominous
<click>
<Krensky> Ok... the lounge is down that hall
'Lapse... try and fit in...
* Krensky turns towards a stairwell.
<Relapse> 'K, how we going to talk to each other?
<Krensky> My sergent is in contact with the roof....
<Relapse> Fine. Let's go Shads.
* Krensky looks at Shadow.
* `Shadow nods to Lapse and heads down said hall
<Krensky> I somehow think she'll stand out...
* `Shadow frowns slightly.. hmm
* `Shadow stops
<Relapse> Whassit? Oh.
* Krensky looks at the Sokto withthe greatsword.
<Krensky> Ok.. Shads, you and Amber take the roof,
'Lapse and I will take the public area.
* `Shadow nods.. okay
<Krensky> Up this stairwell, very top door.
<AmberHawk> your people are aware that we are
coming, Alexander?
<Krensky> They are now.
* Krensky heads down the hall.
* AmberHawk nods, and heads to the stairs
* `Shadow follows Amber
* AmberHawk goes up the stairs, quickly, but cautiously
* Krensky heads down the hall and into the lounge.
A number of people of both sexes are watching TV, playing video
games, or shooting pool. He nods to a tall redhead who's lining
up a shot and takes a seat facing the door. The security door is
visable at the end of the hall.
* Relapse wanders over to watch the computer games,
taking in the room with casual glances on his way.
:: <Roof> The sairwell is decorated
in classical-institutional chic, cinderblocks and steel-pipe railings
and while it's not dark, it's not well lit either. There's five
flights of stairs and at the top is a door marked "ROOF" ::
* AmberHawk pauses at the "ROOF" door, listening
for a moment
* AmberHawk nods to herself, glancing back at Shadow
* `Shadow nods to Amber
* AmberHawk opens the door just enough to look out
for a moment
:: <Roof> There are several knights
already in armor. Two cloakless knights are carring large, dangerous
looking guns held at their hip, another two uncloaked knights
are carring long, heavy spears with two-inch shafts and a foot
long blade with a four-pronged cross blade at the back of the
blade. The last knight is wearing a brown cloak and is hefting
a viscious looking cross between a maul and an axe. A thick squared
point just from the top, and something that resembles a prybar
extends from the bottom of the grip. One of the pikemen's form,
even in armor, marks him as a garou in crinos form, down to
dangerous looking claws on the gauntlets and sorrels of his
armor. the helm is sculped into a growling crinos wolf's head,
and the 'ears' twitch back and forth occasionally as the plated
'tail' sways back and forth slowly. ::
* AmberHawk opens the door, then moves slowly onto
the roof
* `Shadow follows Amber onto the roof
* AmberHawk steps away from the door, keeping her hands
down and in plain sight
:: <Roof> The large man with the
axe and the garou knight turns towards Amber and Shadow. The
garou nods slightly and the sapper says, "Glad ta have
ya darlins." ::
* `Shadow grins faintly
* Krensky looks around and nods to two more men, a woman,
and someone who demands scrutiny to figue out what sex they are.
The games are relatively new, and there's an open one that seems
to be a fighting game with werewolves, vampires, werecats, swordsmen,
dragons, and other weirdness...
* Relapse raises an eyebrow at the security scuffle
before examining the gamebox and trying to fit in.
* Relapse shrugs, taking some coins out and slotting
them in.
* Krensky glances back as 'Lapse starts playing and
the returns to watching the door.
:: Time passes like this for almost
an hour when.... ::
:: <Roof> The garou raises his head
and glances over the side of the building. A growl that sounds more
intiming than usual floats across the roof. The sapper goes over
and glances down. ::
* AmberHawk puts her hand to the weapon holstered on
her hip, and watches the sapper
* `Shadow taps her metallic laced necklace, raising
the energy shield.. just in case
* Relapse glances up, having finished playing the game
and looks around
:: <Roof> Sapper: "I'm be fuked.... ::
Let me call the capt'n.
* AmberHawk moves to the edge of the roof, several
feet away from the sapper, and takes a quick glance over the edge
* `Shadow wanders over as well, wondering what's up
:: <lounge> The woman Kren nodded
to looks up and frowns, walking away from her game in mid play
and heads over to an exit on the east wall. The other people Kren
nodded at look up and then at Kren who simply nods. They step out
the door and move down the hall, suddenly looking less like college
students and more like commandos. ::
* Relapse wanders over to Kren, following.
:: <roof> At the bottom of the
building are eight large dark forms and one smaller one. the
moonlight seems to flow off of them, masking their shapes and
making them hard to distinguish from the shadows. ::
* Krensky stands and walks to the door, glancing
up and down the halls.
<Krensky> 'Lapse...
<Relapse> Yeah, we've got serious reekage here.
<Krensky> Something's not right about this...
I'm thinking of pulling the firealarm and dealing with them it outside...
* AmberHawk frowns, and moves around the roof, looking
down at the other sides of the building
<Relapse> Dunno, the confusion could work for
both sides.
* `Shadow shifts up to crinos and follows Amber, as
she has the right idea..
<Krensky> I figured if everyone is outside it
might scare the bad guys off... and give us more room...
<Krensky> I'd rather not fight in here....
* AmberHawk goes back to the sapper, whispering softly
to him..... there is too much..... strangeness... for me to say
that there are no others around this place
<Relapse> Yeah, me either.
<AmberHawk> <w> we could well be surrounded,
and not know it
:: <roof> Sapper: "Tanks darl'n,
The capt'n isna happy an n'ther am I..." ::
:: <roof> Sapper: "get ready
boys the capt'n's gonna pull the fire alarm... we'll drop down
on 'em two minutes aft'r. Just before the second squad hits 'em
from de ground. ::
* AmberHawk
briefly raises an eyebrow, then nods
* `Shadow nods to the Sapper and looks her blade up
and down
<Krensky> Ok... 'Lapse, we go out that door
two minutes after the alarm starts... Everyone else in here will
be using a different door as this isn't a fire escape route. The
team on the roof will be dropping on them at the same time...
<Krensky> Ready?
* Krensky concentretes, his hands changing into a pair
of silvery grey-blue gauntlets that give off a dull sheen, like the
facet of a diamond. Their backs and bracers are heavily reinforced,
with wide, flat backs. They almost appear to be shaped to act as
bucklers...
* Relapse takes a deep breath "Yup"
* AmberHawk moves to Shadow........ <w> can
you manage a drop from this height?
* `Shadow nods.. yes, I can
<AmberHawk> <w> well enough, then
* Krensky
nods to the other knights. The woman shifts to crinos and they
all sprout armor. The redhead is wearing a green cloak and the
other four are uncloaked. the garou holds a pike, the two men
have guns, and the adrogynous person seems wreathed in shadows
and holds two wicked looking knives. The sergent is carring
a mace and shield.
:: <roof> The sapper turns to Amber,
"Darlin' hold on to my hand, I'll make sure you land alright. ::
* AmberHawk smiles briefly to the sapper.........
I have my own means, though I thank you for the offer
<Relapse> Glad there were
no real students in here.
<Krensky> They're all in
the lounge still... this is a maintenance closet basically.
<Krensky> Ok.
* Krensky pulls the alarm. A lound ringing bell and
a klaxon can be heard.
* Krensky mutters something. His gauntlets expand,
segment by segment, until his whole body is encased in a silvery
grey-blue suit of armor forged of some dull silvery blue metal with
a sheen like a diamond's facets and moves like liquid metal. The
armor more then doubles his bulk and adds six inches or more to
his height. A black cloak swirls behind him despite the lack of
a breeze and the eyeslits of the armor have a slight blue glow to
them.
* Krensky looks at 'Lapse and holds up five fingers.
* `Shadow stretches just a bit in anticipation
* AmberHawk winces at the noise, and watches the sapper,
waiting for the command to move
* Relapse takes out his bowie, looking a bit more at
ease with it now, and watches Kren.
* AmberHawk draws a hand-held crossbow, the blackened
mithril arms of the bow springing into position as she slides a
small lever with her finger. A bolt lies in position, ready to fire.
The heavy pistol-styled grip is balanced by the squared-off forend
of the weapon. The holster hangs from its own belt, with a fairly
large leather case resting across the middle of her back.
* Krensky starts counting down....
:: <Roof> Sapper: "Five" ::
* Krensky holds four fingers up...
:: <Roof> Sapper: "Steady...." ::
* Krensky holds three fingers up....
* `Shadow checks her energy shield a final time and
holds her hakarr at the ready
:: <roof> Sapper: "Wait for
it lads...." ::
* Krensky holds one finger up.....
* Krensky
makes a fist and dashes for the door, the other knights kicking
it down and piling out... Kren following them cloak swirling
around the corner.
:: <roof> sapper: "NOW!"
The sapper and other knights vault over the edge and plummet
to the ground, five stories below. The gunners open up, a loud
screaming sound of metal on metal comming from their cannons.
::
* `Shadow leaps off of the roof, landing on the ground
in a crouch
* AmberHawk steps off the roof, dropping to the second-story
level, where she remains floating........ and opens fire with the
hand bow, selecting her targets with care
* Relapse races after Kren, fluorescent light catching
the blade of his sword once before reaching the outside last
* Krensky
and his men look around... nothing but a severly scorched and
torn up patch of ground is where the bad guys were supposed
to be. A menacing chuckle floats across the clearing. Suddenly
it seems very dark and dangerous with only the small circle
cast by the sodium light...
<Krensky> Damn...
* `Shadow looks around
* AmberHawk frowns, whispering softly for a moment,
then vanishing from sight
:: Voice "You expected us to walk
into your little trap Iskander? How naive.... ::
:: Suddenly a form reaches out and grabs
one of the gunners, dragging him screaming off into the darkness...
one of the bullets fired from his gun as he spasmatically pulls the
trigger knocks out the light.
* Krensky draws his swords seemingly from nowhere.
His right hand holds a silvery steel blade, etched with sigils and
decoration. It glints blue in the light and the intricate gold basket
hilt dazzles the eye. A large ruby pommel helps to balance the longer
blade and seems to faintly glow red as the light catches it. A heavy
bladed shortsword of similar design rests comfortably in his left.
<Krensky> sapper... Give us some light.
* `Shadow growls, her hackles raised
:::Sapper " M' pleasur capt'n"
He points towards the sky and a large flare of light flies from
his arm, hovering a good ten feet above the ground. Five dark forms
something like a cross between a crinos and a gorilla can be seen,
and the dismembered remains of the knight, his armor in shreds. ::
:: A small form, looking frighteningly
like Kren's armored form, but twisted and blackened nightmareishly
and holding a horrid looking double bladeded staff. The blade gleams
darkly.
<AmberHawk> ::a streak of red light flashes over
the heads of the group, then fire flares up as the light hits the
monsters
:: Dark Knight "Welcome to our
party children.... please... try to struggle... it'll make it more
fun.... ::
* `Shadow twirls her hakarr a bit, watching the forms
and the Knight
:: Four of the beasts dodge, one getting
caught by the blast. It collapses, smelling like cooked meat ::
:: A high pitched scream can be heard
from the other sie of the building. ::
:: Dark Knight "Ah... that would
be the sacrafice... get them beasts. ::
* Relapse shifts to crinos, tearing back through the
door he came through towards the other side of the building.
<AmberHawk> <ms Kren> I'll go after her
* `Shadow GROWLS
:: The five forms leap forward, faster
then the knights can react... the gunners are slaughtered before
they can react, their death spasms lighting up the area and making
it quite dangerous with flying bulets. ::
* Krensky screams, a howl of anger and rage and charges
towards the dark knight, heedless of the beasts, his men, or the
bullets...
* `Shadow charges at the nearest form and wields her
hakarr
* AmberHawk appears in front of Relapse as he comes
out of the building........ we are too late, love...... the living
need us more than she does now
* `Shadow looks like she's going for the torso then
ducks to the ground, slicing at the thing's legs
:: The two garou tear into the beasts,
each taking one, the sapper and the sergent take a third, leaving
two unengaged... both charge Shadow. ::
* Relapse looks at Amber piercingly before his eyes
begin to redden and he charges back the way he came, a battle howl
preceding him.
:: The one goes low, and catches her
hakkar in the snout and reels back, stunned. The other goes high,
slashing at her chest with a massive paw with foot long claws. ::
* AmberHawk returns to the battle the way she left
it..... using her native ability to levitate in order to go over
the building..... then dropping from the sky onto one of the unengaged
creatures, slamming into it feet first
:: The garou, despite their armor and
pikes, are too evenly matched with the beasts to gain an advantage,
Kren is engaged in a duel that makes the one from the phantom menace
look like a community theater stage combat, and the sergent and
sapper seem to be gaining an upper hand on their target.
* `Shadow winces as her shield loses alot of energy
from the claw attack.. and advances on the one she got in the snout..
leaving Amber to the other.
:: Amber slams into the stunned beast,
snapping it out of it's daze, it reaches up from the ground and
wrenches her leg, tossing her across into the wall.
* `Shadow twirls her hakarr, looking like a large,
deadly blender, with all of it's blades
:: The one Shadow left unattended slashes
at her again, it's gorilla-like mouth open, and drooling green slime...
* `Shadow spins around to face the thing, her shield
weakening.. she thrusts at it with her hakarr
* Relapse charges out of the door, unmindful of the
bricks knocked out by his less than elegant gate, and leaps blade
first on the closest wyrm creature.
:: Shadow's parries with it's arm, which
is shredded by the blender-o-doom, and punches for her face. ::
* `Shadow ducks to the ground and kicks it's feet out
from under it
::The one that tossed Amber turns around,
grab's 'Lapse's arm, and slams him into the ground. ::
* AmberHawk hits the wall, keeping silent by force
of will as she gets slowly to her feet, one arm dangling by her
side as she leans against the wall for support
:: Shadow's falls to the ground, shaking
the earth and pulls her down into a bear... beast hug. ::
* `Shadow yelps and claws frantically at the thing
with her back feet, raking her back claws against it's stomach as
she tries to stab it with her hakarr
* Relapse returns the favour, grabbing the wrist with
his free arm and bringing it down into a tumbling furry ball with
teeth.
:: Relapse pulls the half-ton beast
down. It's drool burning like acid where it touches him and it tries
to wrap it's arms around him. 'Lapse's claws take a massive toll
on it, but it still starts to squeeze.... ::
:: Shadow's beast lolls it's tounge out,
licking her face as she claws it's legs. It's drool burns like acid
or toxic waste and it seems to be laughing. ::
* `Shadow snarls at the beast and navigates her hakarr
to the beast's neck, still clawing at it with her back claws
* Relapse 's attempt to phase is halted by a slightly
muffled cracking. His yelp also smothered he shifts to lupus to
try and slip out; some small objects falling out of his pocket.
* AmberHawk pushes herself off the wall, drawing her
sword as she moves toward Shadow
:: Lapse slips away, leaving a pile
of silver teeth and his knife on the ground under the beast which
is starting to get up.
* `Shadow concentrates and a tendril of pure shadow
grabs onto the beast's wrist pulling on it with the strength of
a small truck.. trying to free her from it's grasp as she moves
the hakarr closer to it
:: Suddenly tendrils of shadow wrap around
Shadow's beast choking it and cutting into it's flesh. The
androgenous knight steps from the shadows and drives both it's
daggers into the beast. ::
* Relapse glances between the moving beast getting
up and the items under it, his ribs popping softly as they realign.
Shifting back to crinos he swipes lower than the creature in an
attempt to grab teeth.
:: One of the garou manages to impale
it's beast on the pike and has it pinned against the wall. it's
unable to get at the knight... but the knight is only just able
to hold it there. ::
* AmberHawk moves around Shadow now that she has help,
and goes for the creature attacking Relapse
* `Shadow nods her thanks to the knight as she frees
herself from it's clutches
:: The creature it too dazed to do anything,
and 'Lapse scoops up one of the teeth.... ::
* `Shadow advances on the still-living beast, twirling
her many-bladed hakarr
* AmberHawk stabs the creature deeply with her sword,
a few whispered words adding a bolt of electrical energy to the
attack.
* Relapse growls angrilly, claw clenched tightly shut
and shaking as the silver burns deep into his palm.
:: Relpase's claw glows silver and the
glow spreads up his arm and over his body... when it fades he's no
longer there... but rather a crinos form made of liquid silver with
glowing golden eyes. ::
:: The sexless knight yanks it's daggers
back, holding the beast up. ::
:: Sexless "Quickly cat... kill
it whil I have it... ::
* `Shadow impales the thing on her hakarr
* Relapse narrows his eyes, a feral grin flashing across
his features as he rushes to the creatures again, dancing around
with great speed and movements catching the covered moonlight at
all times.
:: The one garou is keeping it's beast
pinned, hoping someone can do something do finish it ff before she
looses her strength and it slips off the end... ::
* `Shadow pulls her hakarr out of the thing
:: The other isn't fairing as well, and
is slowly being nicked to death. The sergent and sapper are still
deadlocked with theirs and Kren's duel continues, faster then the
eye can follow... a blur of blades and cloaks...
* `Shadow watches to see if the beast is truly dead
for a minute
:: Shadow's beast screams... an inhuman
gargle follows and it fades down to a naked child of about ten years
age, it's stomach vivisected by the hakkar. ::
* `Shadow grimaces at the sight
:: The sexless knight recoils... a gasp
comming from it's helm.... ::
:: It then leaps into the fray with
the sergent and sapper, tipping the odds slowly towards the knights. ::
* `Shadow runs towards the garou that isn't faring
too well
:: From the duel... Dark Knight "It
seems one of your friends felled one of my children... ::
<Krensky> Your head will hang from Camelot's
gate Erin... I swear it...
* `Shadow twirls her hakarr at the beast and swipes
at it's legs
:: The garou manages to drive it's
pike into the thing's chest, but is then knocked aside as the beast
tries to pull the pole-arm out... It's distracted and doesn't notice
Shadow. ::
:: Meanwhile Relapse/Amber's beast screams
and collapses, morphing back into a twelve year old naked girl who's
body has been shredded and charred by their attacks. ::
* `Shadow ducks to the ground and tries to knock it's
feet out from under it
:: The knights are slowly bringing down
their beast and the pinned beast seems to be winning the fight,
pushing itself out from the wall and slipping off the pike a little
before the garou can counter... ::
:: Shadow's goes down in a heap, the
pike digging deeper. ::
* Relapse leaps over the downed body, charging towards
the wall-piked beast and rage howling out of him.
* AmberHawk turns, looking for her next target.........
heading for the duel
:: The pike garou is knocked back by
the beast just as 'Lapse tears into it. ::
* `Shadow takes a deep breath and looks for the next
piece of scum..
* AmberHawk moves to the three-way duel, going in under
the sapper's attack, her blade sweeping at the back of the creature's
knees
* Relapse slams the creature right back into the wall
again. Its light surprise ended by silver claw slashes speedily
coating the ground around it with its innards, and too quick for
an effective counter-attack.
* `Shadow realizes the creature's still alive as twirls
her hakarr.. then suddenly swipes at it's stomach
:: The knight's beast goes down... not
able to deal with four attackers... the sapper brings his maul down
on it's skull, like some slasher-film version of Gallagher... ::
:: Leaving behind a mutilated corpse
of a small child whose age and sex is no longer distingushable. ::
:: Shadow eviscerates the beast, leaving
a six year old boy with electric blue eyes and sandy blond hair
behind, impaled on the pike and gutted like a butchered pig... ::
* `Shadow turns her face from the sight with a grimace
* Relapse stands up again over the barely recognisable
body of a small child, looking over the field.
* AmberHawk pulls her blade from the tangle of limbs,
staggering slightly as she looks around the area
* `Shadow looks disgusted as she pulls her hakarr from
the mess, turning to look at Kren and the other knight
:: The area is littered with bodies
and bathed in blood... Five young children with massive, mutilating
injuries and six dismembered and shredded knights. Kren's duel with
the dark knight continues... ::
<AmberHawk> <q> no honor in this night's
work
* `Shadow looks disgusted as she glances around and
shakes her head at Amber.. no.. not at all..
* `Shadow touches a paw to her furry cheek, where the
acidy creature licked her
* Krensky brings his long sword down on the center
of his opponent's staff, shattering it just as he shoves his shortsword
through the villian's stomach, the blade exploding out of it's back.
* Krensky steps back and brings his longsword down
across the fiend's neck, decapitating him. He stands there... coated
in blood, his cloak swirling behind him.... suddenly the body moves,
light swirling up from the ground around Kren...
* Amberhawk starts toward the final duel, moving slowly,
and keeping her sword in hand
* Krensky drops to his knees, his armor disappearing....
* Relapse stops in his padding over to check on Amber
to crouch low and growl gutterally.
* Krensky suddenly arches, screaming as lightning strikes
him and the trees nearby explode into toothpicks. The sapper's flare
goes out, but electricity discharges between Kren, the ground, the
headless body, and Kren's swords, lighting the area like day for
an instant... then all is dark and silent.
* AmberHawk winces, bringing her arm up over her eyes,
trying to protect them from the flare of light
:: A scrape of metal and deep breathing
can be heard... ::
* Relapse stumbles, shaking the after-image off his
retina.
* `Shadow 's eyes try to adjust to the sudden light
changes as she looks over at the metal sound
<Relapse> <CS> KreNSkY!?
:: Stumbling steps can be heard...
the only light is a small circle lit by the shattered, burning trees. ::
* `Shadow shakes her head and tries to see through
the darkness
* AmberHawk brings her sword up, turning toward the
sound, trying to focus her blurred, tear-filled eyes
:: A low moan can be heard as a man
steps in front of the light.. back lit, his features not distinguishable... ::
* Relapse pulls himself to his full height, growling
low but worn.
* AmberHawk whispers softly to herself...... her eyes
taking on an inner glow as her vision clears
* `Shadow looks nearly exhausted, the battle taking
it's toll on her, as she continues trying to peer into the darkness
* Krensky stumbles forward into a pool of light looking
haggered and near death. He smiles a bit, and then collapses.
* `Shadow sighs a bit in relief that Kren was victorious
* AmberHawk goes to Krensky, dropping heavily to her
knees beside of him
* Relapse drops down, moving quickly as his limbs let
him to beside Amber.
* `Shadow moves over to the trio
<AmberHawk> Alexander?
* Krensky is alive... but he spent everything in that
battle...
* Krensky moans.
* Relapse looks around for the remaining knights
<AmberHawk> the next time you invite me to a
dance, my friend....... please choose another group of musicians
:: The sapper, sergent
and garou are cleaning their dead up... and the sexless knight
is watching. ::
<Krensky> Not now Amber... please...
* Relapse glances between Amber and Kren before going
to help the others.
<Krensky> Someone help me up....
* AmberHawk shoves her sword tip into the ground, shaking
her head at Kren....... lay there and rest for a moment
<Krensky> Not advisable...
:: Sirens can be heard in the distance... ::
<AmberHawk> <w> iblith
<Krensky> Unless you wish to explain...
* `Shadow 's eyes grow a bit wide at the sirens as
she glances at the carnage..
* AmberHawk pulls herself to her feet, leaning on her
sword to do so
<AmberHawk> <q> Shadow...... can you get
him to his feet?
<`Shadow> I think so.. *leans down and extends a hand
to Kren*
* Krensky starts to get up...
<Krensky> Thanks.
<Krensky> Time to fade people.
* `Shadow nods in agreement
* Relapse reclaims the remaining teeth and dagger.
:: The sexless knight
drops it's armor and walks up to Kren.. "Alex?" ::
<Krensky> I'm fine Lysa... we need to leave.
* Krensky looks around.
<Krensky> Mac... where' the van?
:: The sapper points, out of his armor
he's a massive man with red hair and a beard. ::
<Krensky> Ok...
* `Shadow slowly shifts down to her sokto form
* `Shadow touches her hand to the wound on her cheek
gently
* Krensky limps toward the vehicle...
* `Shadow follows after Kren, not having the strength
to open another shadow portal to replace her weapon
* Krensky keeps moving... geting noticably better with
every step.
* AmberHawk looks around for Relapse
* Relapse is in the midst of the battle field still,
only now moving back towards the others.
* `Shadow drags herself inside the van, the hand on
her hakarr quavering as she lifts it in the vehicle
:: The other knights move slowly and
painfully towards the van, getting in and waiting for the others... ::
* AmberHawk heads for the van, climbing into it slowly
and carefully
* Relapse picks up the pace
