[QUOTE="jmucchiello, post: 7284829, member: 813"] [i]"Run!" cried Boxer McGulliin, her teammate, as they both started to run. She looked back to see him fall to the ground, a pair of arrows in his back. She turned to run and ran into Polir's dead body, blood dripping from his sliced neck. "I think we should see other people." A punch to gut doubled Thia over, "Where is the " -- mumbed words -- "He will stop punching you when you tell me." Priestess Mizzrym promised in low, almost sultry tones as another punch landed. "if only you had been a man," a familiar voice echoed in her head. "It's not you. It's me."
