Bubz

[Ashador]

While Ash still wanted to kick more ass he had to get out of there, with only thirty seconds to escape he could think of only one option. A long time ago, right after Ashador moved into the flat above the bar Bubz had told him that underneath the staircase leading to his flat was a sort of emergency exit that lead into the sewers. "Come on follow me!" he yelled to the other fighter. He quickly turned and ran as fast as he could back to the bar jumping through the broken window as he didn't have the time to spare fiddling with the door. As soon as he jumped in he noticed that the door to his flat was already opened and the staircase lifted reveling a small hole in the floor, "Good Bubz and that other guy must have already gone through." he said to himself. the hole was much too small for any of his pursuers to follow him down so without delay he jumped in.

"Begin the attack in 30 seconds."

As the disembodied words echoed through the now bustling alleyways, Khan felt an odd sensation. A feeling of icy dread began to creep up and down his spine, and he began to look around the area, desperately seeking out the owner of that dreadful voice.

"Come on, follow me!" Khan heard the dark elf's words as if they had been spoken through water. As the man with the crossbow rushed past him, Khan had a sudden urge to look upward. He titled his head towards the inky black sky, and what he saw paralyzed the grizzled warrior with fear. Standing upon a nearby building was a massive black shape. It simply stared at the half-orc for a moment with it's dim, golden eyes, and Khan felt like the creature was gazing into his very soul. Suddenly, black wings emerged from the shape, and Khan knew that if he didn't move he'd be dead within the next instant. He turned his head to see the dark elf sprint into the bar, then turned back to the creature. It crouched down, and in a split second it was in flight.

"Oh, crap." Khan said, breathlessly. He felt his legs working again, and immediately made a dash for the window pane. Just as he reached it, his primal instincts warned him of danger, and he dove through the frame just as the street behind him was engulfed in white heat. A blast of boiling air cut into Khan's back, sending him flying towards the hole in the stairs. Khan's episode of terror had caused him to lose concentration, rendering his Berserkang worthless against the slicing winds. He felt the full force of the scalding cut, and in midair the rest of the fight's wounds began to hit him. He screamed in agony as he felt the force of the steamforged's kick, the glass shards in his skin, the crash into the cabinet, and the alcohol in his wounds, all amplified tenfold. Mercifully, he was not in pain long, since the blast sent him flying right into the step above the escape hatch. His head slammed violently into the wood, and he bounced into the hole as he began to lose consciousness. He remembered hearing the sound of bone crushing against concrete, then feeling every cell in his body howling in agony for a moment before his world faded into darkness.

Kryth, who, thankfully enough hadn't really suffered too much from being tossed down the hole, had only managed to stand up when the Half orc came crashing down, burn on his back and all. Frowning, Kryth bent over him, looking down at the burn. It looked oddly familiar, but he really couldn't place it. Sighing a little, he turned to the dark elf, who had landed rather more gracefully, and asked in an unceremonious fashion "What exactly was up there? What could have done that much damage to this one?" here he toed the Orc. "I am called Kryth by the way." , he intoned as he stood up and looked at the elf, extending the hand not holding the staff for a shake.

However, it was not the Dark Elf that answered his first question, nor was his hand extended for long. A feminine voice drifted from a little down the tunnel (it was pitch black, after all,) and said loftily "Envy Works in Mysterious ways." Kryth, without hesitation, spun around and crouched, placing the head of his staff and himself in front of the other two. The runes began to dance once more, but as the figure, apparently the one who had spoken, stepped into the light of the staff, the runes began to disappear at once. The revealed Elf was, unlike the yet un-named Dark Elf, a High Elf, most of her head obscured by a deep blue hood, but her eyes glowed a venomous green. "Deyis" Kryth breathed, sounding a bit disgusted "Are you saying that our, ah, friend here was attacked by Envy?" Kryth really was not terribly fond of the Resistance war wizard. And that she should show up here, of all places was at least a bit unsettling.

"Never mind you that." She said, essentially ignoring the question and stepping over to the injured half orc. As she moved, she was revealed to be wearing a cloak of blue not unlike Kryths, but of a deeper blue, and not so warn and tattered. She also carried a staff, but hers appeared to be made of some purple crystalline substance. When she reached the unconscious man, she ran the staff over him in the air, with about a foot between him and the staff, a purple light dancing over his wounds as the staff traveled. Then, without pretext, she threw the staff up and snapped, causing it to disappear. Then, muttering to herself about regenerative capabilities, she began walking back down the tunnel, calling back, still as lofty as ever. "Come with me if you want your questions answered! Or if you want to live, really. It makes no difference to me."

"Still as lofty as ever...." Kryth grumbled to himself, before putting his staff over his shoulder and following.


((Mentlegen, we shall continue this in a thread called "The Sewers", which will be located in the outskirts, but not in Bubz. Keep an eye out for it. I'll post first, I guess. On a slight side note, you're very good at introducing characters on accident Khan. lol.))

((What are you doing, Jagues...? There's no one unconscious in this thread; They're all dead or alive, with one asleep. No inbetweens. Also; There's an entire fucking army up here; it's why we left. So no. Post deleted for complete inaccuracy and inability. You walk into this you die. Fairly simple and standard.))
