[QUOTE="ahayford, post: 5728147, member: 6680745"] Nia's scream causes panes of glass to shatter in their settings, but the lead thug manages to cover his ears, resisting much of the effect of the spell. A little blood trickles from his nose but is otherwise unharmed. The thugs lips curl again and he screams in a gravely voice. [color="Orange"] Best save your strength missy. When we're done here I'll make you really scream.[/color] Val, Caytis, and Marcus engage the leader in melee. He is not a skilled swordsman, but his brute strength and brutality seem to carry him through. Caytis scores a glancing blow, but Marcus manages to score a solid hit on his offhand shoulder, digging into the meat of his arm. The thug howls in pain, but the wound seems to just drive him even harder. The remaining thug in the rear seems to regain his faculties, just in time for his mind to be befuddled by Wilbur's magic rune. His eyes could once more. Phantom snakes strike at him from the shadows of the alleyway. He stabs madly at the air before focusing on the lead thug and charges screaming. The leader laughs as his short sword narrowly misses Val's vitals. His laugh is cut short as his confused parter's sword emerges from his chest. The leader looks confused, and grasps at the blade in his back before sliding to his knees. [color="Orange"] **Cough** You never could fight your own battles Marcus. Damn do gooder.[/color] The leader topples forward on his knees, seemingly taking an eternity to fall before lying face first in the rain water. The black mist clears from the remaining thugs eyes as he surveys his handiwork. His hands shake as he realizes what he's done. He slumps to the ground. [color="Green"] I yield....please....[/color] The man is visibly shaking. ------------------------------------------ On the roof, the archer spins around at the sound of Svexyn's challenge. He quickly notches an arrow, and with trained calmness, fires a point black shot at the nimble rogue. The barbed arrow screeches through the air and bites into Svexyn's thigh.
