I watch his moves carefully as i continue to hack through the guards. One, i stole their axe, and now began throwing their previous weapons that i pick up. "Is that... Better watch him carefully." I lunged towards another guard.
I topple a guard and beat him to death then use the sword of him and throws it at another soldier. I then use my sword and start chopping off heads off the soldiers .and laugh"good fighting!"
An Orc with a poisoned knife steps besides Destiny's unconscious body, and puts it to her side "Don't even think about it. One move and she gets it, don't you want her to survive without any scratches?" the orc says smiling. "Money can't buy her back, when we're finished with her, you'll get her back, but the more we stand her and bicker about this, the more time you'll lose from seeing her ever again, so if you don't mind, we'd be on our way now"the leader says slyly.
More guards swarmed the streets, as it seemed like an endless horde. They started to move the ballistae from pointing outside the wall to inside. "Marcus, i think we need to go!" I hollered over the noice, smashing two guards together.
I bang the heads of two soldiers together and howl in pain as a sword pierces my leg. Quickly I kill the swordsmen and yell out "there's two many we need to retreat they keep pooring out of that gate unless..." I notice a lever that could bring down the gate and knock over soldiers and pull it. the screams off crushed soldiers ring out
"Good point.." I mutter and take out a second dagger and throw it at the dagger at destiny's side so that it goes flying then in rapid succession throw the other one through the orc's throat then in a blink of eye pulls another one and throws it deep into the leader's forehead piercing the brain until the end was out the other side of his skull then charges in with my shortsword and start hacking down the remaining orcs while circling Destiny protecting her from any chance of being hit. As soon as the last one's down I let out a huge sigh and kneel beside her, "Are you alright?" I whisper, "you're safe. Are you hurt anywhere?
I nod and say "retreat! I quickly kill a few soldiers and head towards the woods hoping to make it back to the airship.
I start to sprint out, but it was too late. Marcus was past the gate, but i wouldn't make it, and it slammed shut. I hit it hard, then said, "I'll be fine! Just get the airship out of here!" I turned, and pick up a sword lying on the ground.
"I yell out I won't leave you here!" I run to the airship and bring it into the city set it hovering and I quikly use the ballistas to take down scores of soldiers and destroy the ballistas guarding the city. I fire at the wall and it breaks. I yell "out use that as an escape route!"
I jump over the hole as the elves follow closely behind me. I glance behind, and began to scramble to the airship. i can't blow my cover now... The airship had already started to go, and i called out, "Hurry!"
"Alright!" I replied, and crawled up onto the ship. I was about to sigh with relief, when i could feel it coming. "Crap." I thought aloud, and glanced over at Marcus.
I hear warrens voice above that groggy state and feel his arms around me so I know I'm safe. "he's actually done it, he's better than we thought" the Orc whispered to his leader. "well let's see if he's good enough for this!" the leader creeps behind Destiny and Warren without making a sound and hits Warren behind the head knocking him unconscious "that will keep you out of trouble for a while" the orc laughs and picks up Destiny. "off to the airship we go!" he said as all the orcs let out a victory cry and ran at full speed to the airship.
My eyes turn green and I start to cry"what have I done!" I slump to the floor but slowly my eyes turn red and I start driving the airship back to the castle. I grin "well that was fun I think I was focusing too much on brute strength though but it worked effectively! Nice fighting pentro really well defined"
"..." I paused for two reasons. The personality shift in Marcus, and for the growing pain on me. "Yeah. You did the eye thing again an- oh god." I fell over, clutching my stomach on the deck. It began to burn violently. I should've done it more, otherwise it wouldn't hurt this bad!
