[QUOTE="megamania, post: 2213379, member: 9255"] STRIKEFORCE: MORITURI SEGMENT 104 “ And Kobold Saves the Multiverse” Kikinn wasn’t a warrior. Even for a kobold he was weak and scared. But he was a salesman. A good one at that. He followed the warriors and picked up after them. He collected swords, shields and armor if he could carry them. Tonight’s search was unique. He had not heard the combat but saw the flashes from the ledges nearby. It took him several minutes to arrive to the site. What he found where dozens of black robes with no bodies within them. However, their magical weapons were everywhere. Kikinn had a special talent. He could smell and taste magic. His mind was overwhelmed by the smells of magic here. Magic from another world. He could buy another harem with the money collected from this site along! He hoped along to check it all out then froze. There was someone here. Someone alive and groaning. He cautiously looked over a rock and saw the human. He was strangely dressed and glowed faintly. A sword stabbed from his back to his front. It was a fatal blow but somehow the human remained alive. Slowly and with many periods of stopping to watch, Kikinn made his way to the human. He was in a great deal of pain. The human’s hands were grouping around and touching weapons. The weapons would glow then die down. The human then would glow then the glow would die out on him also. Kikinn hoped over to him. “Mayyyyy---kik.” Moaned the man. “Kikinn.” He says pointing to himself. The man rolls his head over to look at the kobold better. Kikinn hops back a few steps to remain out of arms reach. “helllll….” “Some say we live there.” “…llllp me” “Got money?” “Paaaaants… “ “You have breeches yes. Strange design. Is that a cotton material?” “Blass…..lil’ run…..t” “No needs for name calling. You look more dead than alive. Maybe I’ll just sit here and watch you die for a bit.” And with that the kobold dusts off the rock, places some ninja suits on the rock and sits. He rests his serpentine head on his palms and watches the stranger die. “Maaa- kik….” “Hurmmm….oh yes. Many magic items here have magic.” The figure fumbles over eloquent katanas and stars. He finds a ring and grasps it. The Kobold watches. He knows it has magic and will pick it from the body of this strange dead human soon enough. The man glows then breaths better. He drops the ring. “What did you do?1? You ate the magic!” in fear, anger and surprise the kobold hurries over to move the remaining magical items from the dying man. A look of clarity appears in the man’s eyes as he grabs the kobold. His hand pulls and tugs at the pack. In fear of his life, the kobold wriggles free of the pack and hops away. The man sticks his hand into the pack; he grabs at the rings, daggers and other small magical items. He begins to glow and he gains the strength to topple over from his knees. With his other hand, he reaches back and begins to pull the sword back. The glow surrounding his body rises and falls as he touches Kikinn’s found magical items. “MY GOODIES!” He hops over to pull it free but instead is grabbed. “Thank …u” “Thankme!?!? You just destroyed my entire stash!” He rolls back to his knees. “I …don’t …feel…so …good.” “If I had a sword in my back I would call it a bad day also! Now let me go!” and the kobold wiggles free as the man releases him. He crawls to another sword and absorbs the magic within it. “I need…magic…..I need…to find….my friends….” “Too bad!” “I will not ask again…nicely” Jim Addards aka Megamania slowly but oh so dramatically stands upright. The whole time he looks to the skies. It is raining shooting stars. “I wish… I might… Wish on a star tonight….” “Why do all of the undead become insane here?” bemoans Kikinn. [/QUOTE]
