[QUOTE="johnmeier1, post: 5030336, member: 73730"] Dextyr's heart jumped a beat as he saw his punch-brother fall under the sheild of the dwarf and then was surrounded by her companions. Caution took a backseat in his mind and he rushed forward to aid his friend. [COLOR=PaleGreen]Die Dwarf![/COLOR] Dextyr shouted and threw out his arm, raw arcane energy shooting forth and slamming into the dwarf. As soon as the bolt of energy departed, his hand shot down and he drew out his longsword. The bolt strikes Hausk full force and she staggers. Janus is spun around by the arrow as it passes through his body. Screaming he continues the motion and completes the revolution as the last words of a spell escape his lips, his hand shoots forward dramatically, but no blast is forth coming, no feiry doom envelops his enemies. Instead, soothing music full of gentle pianos and double bass notes fill the air, whilst small “Z” shaped snow flakes circle the heads of the three enemies standing over the injured Tonk. Their movements all seem slower and drowsy. Shorrin takes off in a sprint, unwilling to let a companion die. Peeking over the rock, Murphy sees Tonk go down after a glorious charge towards the dwarf. After seeing Dextyr fire off a blast of energy, one that he was all too familiar with and the spell of Janus triggered, Murphy knew he had to act. Pointing at the dwarf a wisp of shadow from the tree behind him crawled up his back. Murphy then takes aim with his crossbow and fires a bolt at the dwarf. With the appearance of Shorrin through his sights, the bolt was not as accurate as he'd like it to be. Throwing the weapon down in disgust, Murphy moves forward, hot on the heels of Shorrin and draws his blade. The time for stealth is over and his foes shall feel the sting of his blade shortly. Larinza dashes forward unable to clear the distance in time she rushes down the road and shouts at Tonk. [COLOR=Magenta]"Tonk!

Her allies react swiftly, Zehis moves back and waves his wand causing a thunderclap to hit Tonk and Shorrin and while the fighter shrugs it off, the rogue is blooded and dazed from the noise.
