Druid ran down the deserted street. The sun seemed to be hiding behind the hovels. The steady and unyielding march of the BeastCorps followed closely behind. He and Baird split up a while back and from the looks of it he got away free. Then again why wouldn't he? Baird was a big shot shadow mage and was close to Druid, but why settle for ground beef when you can have steak. Druid ran on.

Occasionally a shot would fire over his shoulder. He would then duck to avoid falling debris and run faster. There was three or four battalions in pursuit. He wouldn't have been surprised if the entire army was back there. Druid took a hard left and then a hard right. He hoped that would throw them off. He ran along the street for a bit and turned right again. He hoped to have lost his tail. Druid turned once more, and was greeted with a dead end. He stopped to catch his breath. THUMP, THUMP, THUMP. The soldiers had found him, and were coming to collect their prize.

Druid stood up tall and held his bolt gun out towards the opening. His arm fully extended and his head held high. He stood there and waited. He waited. He waited. Druid's arm stood strong but he was starting to get nervous. The thumps had stopped. All he could hear was his own breathing.

BOOM

Druid was thrown forward, along with the wall from the building behind him. The army had snuck up and blown out the wall he was infront of. He landed and rolled to try and avoid the debris. He spun around, bolt gun ready to fire. However his arms fell and he swore under his breath. As the dust started to clear he could make out the distorted form of the Beast!

All,

I feel badly. All I do is post. Druid is a solitary story and Coriko has only started interacting with DM and Ted. I'm going to post on here more often so that way I don't feel like I'm just using the forum  Smile

How is everyone?

Coriko smiled at his friend as he staggered towards his room but soon returned his focus back to the odd man who seemed to have a crush on him.

"I'm sorry, what were we discussing?"

Druid tossed in his stolen bed. He tossed and turned restlessly. The walls shook every time a group of soldiers would march by. After a few minutes of this Druid got up to see what Baird was doing. Druid was just about to enter the main room when the door broke inwards, splintering into pieces. Druid ducked back into the room behind a wall. He slowed his breathing down and strained to hear what was being said.

"I am Jonoton Oburts! I am with the BeastCorps! We know the fugitives Druid and Baird are residing in this hovel. Please give yourselves up or we will be forced to take actions to subdue you!"

Druid laughed at this and had to come out from behind the wall. He put up his hands with a big smile on his face. He didn't see Baird anywhere in the room. The members of the "BeastCorps" turned to him. They pointed their bolt guns at him. Druid looked this Jonoton Oburts up and down. A scrawny, short, pale man looked back at him. He had on the same armour as the other guards and carried a bolt gun along as well. Druid had a huge smile on his face, "Well Jonoton, I must admit I find that a mighty big claim. From where I am standing you are a small boy who wandered into the big boys sandbox. Go ahead and point your rustic weapons at me, but I guarantee that in five minutes you will be dead and I will be walking out that door."

The guards shuffled and looked uncomfortable. Some glanced at the door making sure their escape route was free. Others looked at Jonoton for advice. Jonoton remained firm. "Well," Druid took a step forward and all the guards took a step back "it's going to be a shame killing you. You may have been a good leader in my army."

Jonoton, outraged, charged at Druid. Druid avoided his clumsy punch and grabbed his arm around the wrist. He then slammed his other hand into Jonoton's elbow breaking his arm. The other soldier's charged at Druid at this point as Jonoton collapsed to the ground. The first guard to attack Druid tripped and then flipped him over his shoulder, into the wall. The next guard ran at Druid with a sword. Druid grabbed the soldier's arm and twisted it. The soldier dropped the sword. Druid then used the guard as a shield when the remaining guards opened fire. The body did a good job as a shield. Once the fire ceased Druid picked up his human shield and threw it at the guards. Two of the soldiers were knocked over, the third rolled out of the way. Druid fired a blast of shadow energy at him which blew off his head. He then picked up Jonoton's bolt gun and walked to the trapped guards and but a bolt in both of their heads. The guard from the wall ran at Druid from behind. Druid spun around and delivered a lethal kick to the soldier's head. The rest of the guards had already run off to get reinforcements. Druid turned around and saw Jonoton, who was still clutching his broken arm.

"I didn't realize you were still alive. Well I was wrong, not five minutes, two." After that he fired a bolt between Jonoton's eyes. The body fell limp. Druid looked around at the six dead bodies and sighed. He opened the door to the other room. Baird lay on the bed sleeping. "GET UP!" Druid yelled.

"What? What's wrong?"

"We need to go, you'll understand when you see the other room." Druid then headed for the front door.

Baird jumped out of bed. Ran after Druid but stopped in the main room. "OH! How did I sleep through that?" He then followed Druid outside.

A large group of guards was running down the street. “Secure the fugitives for the beast!”

“Oh CRAP!” Druid and Baird bolted in the other direction.

"About three years ago I was on a mission with a man named Wilham. It was a long and arduous one but we completed it and were returning home. Well Wilham stepped through the portal first and I could hear him tell me to come through. Yet just before I went through the portal winked. No one thought anything of it. So I stepped through and ended up on a continent or island called Ctiadyd, which I later found out, was on the other side of the world. And to top things off I was surrounded by people brandishing weapons." Coriko took a breath to take a swig of his ale and then continued his story.

"Well I tried to talk my way out of it but they took me as a prisoner and I was taken to their capital. This is where I saw Kylessa. She instantly recognized me and told them to let me go. Like I said before she was of noble birth and her family left Asgarnia before the town was destroyed. They founded a new civilization in Ctiadyd with them as the rulers. So we instantly hit it off and started dating. She showed me around the island. Oh my god if you could have seen it. Mountains that touched the sky, lakes as clear as glass, and wildlife that I had never seen before. I stayed on the island two years with her and her family. We are engaged as well." Coriko grabbed the chain that hung around his neck and pulled it out so the man could see. There was a ring with a stunning array of colours.

"I carved two of these out off a gemstone I found on the island. I have one and so does she. But I told her I couldn't marry her till I found out what happened to my friends, Marshall, Wilham, and Firstman. So I left the island and sailed to the last place I saw them. However I didn’t find them, which I had expected. So for the last year I have been tracking them down and only by chance did I come into this tavern and there Marshall was. I have also been keeping in contact with Kylessa via messenger hawk. Her father raised many and so we correspond through notes. Oh, how I miss her.” Coriko paused with a sense of longing. “Oh, I’m sorry I don’t mean to bore you with my life story. Can I get you another drink to make up for it?”

Baird sat in a chair feeling his new hand. He could move the fingers, simultaneously and independently. He could clench into a fist and then release. He could summon orbs of shadow energy. He could also summon the orbs with his other hand too which meant he had his powers back. “This new hand is incredible!” Baird exclaimed to the doctor.

“Yez, I am, vhat you call, a jeneous. Drew-weed come over ‘ere!” Druid went to the doctor’s side as requested. “I must now depart Drew-weed. Pleaze for dee love of dis coontry, KILL ZEE BEAST!!” With that the doctor turned and scurried out the door. Druid watched the elderly man scurry away and then went to his friend’s side.

“How are you doing”

“Energized! Lets go kick his demonic ass!”

Druid smiled, “well you may have energy but I still need some rest. Plus we need a plan of attack. You work something out while I take a nap.” Druid went to one of the bedrooms of the house. It was a dark room. Dust covered everything but Druid didn’t care because it was dark, and that was all he needed. He collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep almost instantly. He tossed with thoughts of the beast’s takeover, but found solace in the thought of that creature’s soon demise.

"Sorry, but I actually want to catch up with my good friend Marshall. I haven't seen him in three or four years."

"Or, about forty-hundred-thousand-million miles that way. So, it's your choice really. I miss Firstman..."

Coriko watched his friend in his drunken stupor. He turned back to this man who insisted on hitting on him.

"Well I guess I can talk to you for a bit, however I must let you know I am in a committed relationship with a woman named  Kylessa. She was from an aristocratic family from the same town as me, but she left before it was overrun with the walking undead..." Coriko trailed off for a moment. Coughed and recovered his composure. "So how do you know Marshall and Ein? And what did Marshall mean by he misses Firstman, did he leave the Aspyes or something?"

Baird sat in a chair. Druid had his hands on Baird's chest and the doctor had his hands on Baird's arm stump.

"Alvright,” the doctor said with a heavy accent. He was visiting Shaad Oenn from a different country back in their home dimension when the island was transported. He stayed on the island as a doctor healing the sick in refugee camps. More evidence of the Beasts’ destruction. “Drew-weed, send a strung pulse of zee shadoo energee throoogh Baird. I vill den mold zee shadoo energee into an arm. It vill be zee same as your other arm, no extra strength or anyzing of zee sort. It vill conduct zee shadoo energee better thooogh. When redie, vire!”

Druid sent a pulse of shadow energy into Baird he screamed with agony. The doctor guided this energy out of his arm. The energy flowed out of the arm and between the doctor’s hands wildly. “KEEP ZENDING ZEE PULSE!” The doctor screamed. He then started to move his hand backwards, controlling the flow of the energy. A lot still escaped but he controlled enough to make the arm. He smeared some of lotion on the shadow energy which seemed to harden. The doctor then started to slice of bits of the hardened shadow energy and started to sculpt a hand. Druid watched in amazement but kept his distance as to not cause any troubles. Baird had a look of pain and anger on his face. It was excruciatingly painful for him.

“When this is over Druid…”

Coriko coughed and almost choked on his ale. He cleared his throat to regain his composure. Coriko then turned to this man.

"Excuse me, you want me to sign where? I don't know who you think I am, but I'm not him, sorry."

Baird awoke to some gentle nudges by Druid. He tried to swat him away but he had no left arm, the Beast had ordered it's removal during his torture sessions. He grumbled, swore under his breathe, and then tried to return to sleep.

"Baird get up. I found a doctor. He is going to create an arm for you out of shadow energy. So get up so we can get this over with. I need to jump start the shadow energy in your arm so we can make it. This may hurt..."

Coriko smiled into his glass of ale. He finished his sip and returned it to the bar. He brushed the hair out of his eyes and turned  to his old friend.

"It's been a while Marshall, I didn't know you still felt that way about me."

Coriko smiled and watched Marshall's reaction.

Druid and Baird rushed into an old house. Most citizens were evacuated from their homes and relocated to work camps. It wouldn't be hard to win back their loyalty because the Beast treated the populous horrifically. Baird and Druid sat down at the table and looked around their surroundings.

"We'll camp out here for now, but we must be ready to move at any time. Get some food and rest. We will confront the Beast soon. I'll fix your arm after we've rested."

"Alright." Baird silently grabbed some stale food. It was better than anything he ate in the prison. The two sat in silent contemplating their next move.

-Shaad Oenn-

The stream of water flowed back and forth on the stone jail floor. It weaved in between pebbles and rocks into crevices and back out. Druid crawled alongside it intently for a few minutes. If he ever lost it he would double back and follow it closely. Sometimes it weaned down to just a trickle and Druid had to have his face centimetres from the floor to follow it.

After several arduous minutes of following this rain water Druid found out where it lead. He followed the water till it slipped under a big metal door. Druid raised his head and stumbled backwards after he saw where he was. This huge door had window. It was huge and metal with huge metal bolts and a huge metal door knob. There was rust around the hinges of the door. He studied the door and all the evils that were trapped behind it. Druid took a deep breath and twisted the handle and pushed open the door, entering into the foreboding darkness.

The door opened to horrors of unspeakable evil. Children hung from walls drained of blood, women lay on tables eviscerated, piles of limbs lay in corners. Druid threw up, not from the visual stimulation but the stench. He had to cover his mouth and nose. He felt the little stream trickle against his foot. He knelt down to see it drained into some sort of sewer gate.

“BAIRD!” Druid ran back to his friend. “We’re getting out of here.” He picked up his friend. His legs gave out a little but he was able to stabilize himself before the two teetered over. Druid moved as fast as he could towards the tunnel. He laid Baird down and lifted the gate up. It was very heavy and Druid struggled but finally managed to pull it open. Druid grabbed Baird and they made there way into the tunnels. He couldn’t see because t was dark however he had a feeling he didn’t want to. He trudged through the thick waters that rushed in the sewers.

Druid and Baird emerged several blocks away from the prison. They crouched in the shadows till it was safe to pass by. Thud thud thud thud. The beast’s army marched by. They were on full alert now that Druid and Baird were free. Baird was waking up. Druid knelt beside him in the shadows and explained the situation. Moments later the two huddled in the dark. Another group of soldiers thundered past. Thud thud thud thud.

“What now Druid?” Baird asked his friend perplexed at the spontaneity of his leader.

“We go after the Beast!” Druid ran from behind the shadows to the group of guards. He caught them by surprise and half were dead before they realized what happened. Baird watched as his leader skilfully finished of the battalion of soldiers. Druid returned holding armour and weapons. “This isn’t to hide,” Druid addressed the perplexed Baird. “We are not sneaking into their camps to ambush them for it would be suicide. We are going to find any allies we can and raise a resistance to take down this monster. W may not need it but it is always good to have backup. This armour and weapons will protect us until we are back to full health. Now, we must find you a doctor. Come on.” Druid threw on his armour and ran off behind some buildings. Baird put his on and followed closely after.
