[QUOTE="talien, post: 2867913, member: 3285"] [b]Assault Upon the Gate of Tears - Part 5b: To Take a Black Ship[/b] “Where the hell did those things come from?” asked Kham, marveling at the slathering wolves that bounded into the darkness. “You are correct,” said Quintus, watching the pack of jet-black canines tear into the sailors. Screams of confusion and horror erupted from the darkness. They barked and yipped as they attacked, and their panting sounded suspiciously like laughter. “They are Illiir’s Hounds of War.” After a couple of yelps from wounded wolves, four sailors spilled out into the room. With a shout, Vlad waded into the melee. “He’s surrounded!” said Kham, taking aim at one of the sailors. “No he’s not,” said Holden. His rifle was slung over one shoulder. He pointed both palms at the sailors. “Fuco aspergo!” A coruscating cone of colors washed over the sailors. They collapsed to a man. “Nice job, Sebastian,” said Kham. “I don’t suppose you can cast any of those lightning spells.” “No,” said Holden. “That’s why I have this.” He snatched up his rifle again and aimed it at the doorway. The entire room shook. Pieces of the ceiling fell to the ground around them. “We’ve got to get out of here,” said Quintus. The globe of darkness retreated down the hall. “Forget the papers!” shouted someone at the other end. “Seal them in!” Quintus rose to his feet. “Time to go! Kham, Holden, fire on my command.” Holden took up a position next to Kham and aimed at the door. Kham held both cocked pistols at the ready. “Vlad, after they fire, you and I will clear a path.” Quintus and Vlad stepped to either side of the doorway. “Ilmarė, you follow behind.” Ilmarė rose to her feet. “You don’t tell me what to—“ “Fire!” shouted Quintus.
