"Don't worry! I've got it!" Ithiken flings open the door in the hallway, rushes forward ten feet, then stops short when he sees the barkeep directly in front of him on his right. "Gah!!!" He raises his wand and fires at the female.

Miltiades again begins to chant a spell to summon another celestial defender, a giant fire beetle this time to harry his foe in this spellcasting duel. His screeching owl presses the attack with slashing talons.

Round 4.

Clutching his two daggers, the Kid moved quickly down the hall. Flattening himself against the wall, he opened the door to the private rooms, preparing to move in next. In the corridor where Miltiades's room stands a tall and imposing fellow with a dark beard., further in the corridor Thandis spots the barkeep, rapier in hand she ventures into Lenuran's room.
"Don't worry! I've got it!" Ithiken flings open the door in the hallway, rushes forward ten feet, then stops short when he sees the barkeep directly in front of him on his right. "Gah!!!" He raises his wand and fires at the female. The half elven female barkeep turns in surprise as the two force bolts strike her in the back.
Lenuran knew he was no match for the assassin, and had to hold her off until his friends could come to his aid. He switched to a defensive stance, hoping to ward the assassin's blade away from his body.
"Come now," squeaks Lenuran in his high toned voice. "Certainly we can come to some kind of accord here. Whatever they are paying you to kill, I'll double it! Just let me slink away and you can tell them I'm dead."
The woman, her eyes flick with wrath calls. "Master take the wizard while I silence this gnome forever." She swings her sword but Lenuran jumps to the side in time, saving himself from the rapier's sharp tip.
The now known master of the planned attack moves into Miltiades's room and casts a spell on the priest, but Rao's power of will fade the dark magic from his servant, Miltiades in return begins to chant a spell to summon another celestial defender, a giant fire beetle this time to harry his foe in this spellcasting duel. His screeching owl presses the attack with slashing talons but lack of space prevents him from hitting the human.
"Let me through, let me through." Says the big brute to Ithiken, his sword ready and high in the air, moves pass the wizard to the door.
"I knew there is something about you woman." He shouts to the barkeep and strikes the woman her shoulder blade, the surprised and now panicked barkeep turns in horror to her attacker and cries in pain. "Master, help me!"

Lenuran

"I gave you an out, wench!" says Lenuran as the woman cries out for her master. With a sad shake of his head, he thrusts his blade at her back and adds quietly, "You should have taken it."

[stonegod]

"Take one alive!" the Kid calls. He dashes down the hall, attempting to to dodge past the doorframe, but does not manage, leaving himself open to attack. Once through, he jabs at 'the Master' with a dagger, hoping to weaken him enough for a non-lethal blow afterwards.

As his two missiles impact into the barkeep's back, Ithiken hears from behind him "Let me through, let me through." He turns his head slightly, then gets pushed backwards out of the way by the big brute with the heavy weapon. "Uh... yeah. Excuse me."

As Lenuran and the brute surround the barkeep and begin assaulting her physically, Ithiken steps up, sees the woman from behind the hulking frame of the brute, and thanks the gods above that his missiles auto-target. "Two more for you, lady!" (Cast Magic Missile from wand at M)

Round 5.

"Take one alive!" the Kid calls. He dashes down the hall, attempting to to dodge past the doorframe, but does not manage, leaving himself open to attack but the master is without weapon so he ignores Thandis's move . Once through, he jabs at 'the Master' with a dagger, hoping to weaken him enough for a non-lethal blow afterwards, the dagger fails to penetrate some invisible magical barrier.
As Lenuran and the brute surround the barkeep and begin assaulting her physically, Ithiken steps up, sees the woman from behind the hulking frame of the brute, and thanks the gods above that his missiles auto-target. "Two more for you, lady!"
"I gave you an out, wench!" says Lenuran as the woman cries out for her master. With a sad shake of his head, he thrusts his blade at her back and adds quietly, "You should have taken it." The blade cuts the barkeep in her arm.
The woman acts quickly, trying to reach the window on the far wall, she overrun the little figure and push him to the side, Lenuran in return tries to stab her once more but lose balance and falls on the bed.
Luckily for him, the big brute reacts quickly and lowers his weapon on the barkeep's back, almost tearing her spine out, the barkeep screams and jumps through the window, few seconds pass and a loud thud can be heard from the outside, she fell on the ground, her head, cracked like an egg hit a stone bench.
The master, panicked, move to the open gap in the wooden wall that was caused by the magical blast. Lack of weapon prevents Miltiades from attacking the master, but his owl flies into the room and scratch the man in the head. Haaa! The man screams as he hits the ground. (second story is about 11 ft. high from the ground).
Miltiades grabs his spear and looks out from the blasted wall and the ruined window, spotting the master between the flower beds, he send his spear all the way right into the man's side.
The owl, flies out of the room and down on its prey but the master rolls over to the other side.
Finishing his spell, Miltiades summons a Giant Fire Beetle, the giant insect appears on the ground next to the master and bites him viciously in the forearm.
You are safe now!
Say the Big brute to Lenuran as he peers out of the window at the dead barkeep and the wounded master.
