Winter's Fury - Part 5
There was a long pause as everyone stood in a complete awe of what they just experienced, looking all perplexed with thier heads still pointed towards the ground. Spectre was the first to fathom all of what took place and woke on of his trance. Slowly he lifted his head up and looked towards the wall. There he seen one weak, drained, poor soul of a man laying on both his knees with his head right up against the wall of the Capital. Tears rolled the down the poor man's eyes as he couldn't bear to live with himself after knowing what just happened. The youngest of the Bandits , a man named recognize with the name Only One walked over and put his hand on Orochiholic's shoulder. He then asked the question " Is he dead " ? Orochiholic looked up at the Bandit only to produces even more tears and slams his fists to the ground. He shouts really loudly saying " Why " !!! Over and over he repeats the same motions. Grendel in the background replies " He came in this world as a warrior, and he ended it like one ... be glad that he went out like a hero ". Orochiholic then feeling a little better wiping the tears from his face , stands up and says " Come there's something I need to show you ".
The whole group starts following Orochiholic. The Bandit leader asks how they were going to repay Orochiholic with. Orochiholic turns and asks if they still had the rare aldmor artifacts. Grendel shakes his head and says " Come with us quick to our Cabin so I can show you them ". Only about 1/4 of a mile in, the 5 men made it to the Cabin. They walked in and there right inside the house were the objects Orochiholic was seeking. The items looked like the state of the art technology that could help stabilize his friend back at his house. Orochiholic says to the bandits " That is what I need ". The Bandits didn't hesitate and agreed to give it to Orochiholic. He then asks to follow him to his house and to help stabilize his dying friend. The bandits still owed Orochiholic thier lives for his brave efforts and didn't argue with him and willingly followed him home to his home.
Hours came and went and the group was progressing towards the home faster than they expected. They encountered a more dense and fogger area, Grendel pushes past some bushes as the group follows through. On the other side, a large swampland awaited that seemed to be a little odd. Bankai groans " Ugh what is that smell ". The swamp was more than just a little odd , it was toxic to humans. Orochiholic replies " I heard of this place before but thought it was a myth, Oldros they call it ". The group knew they were in trouble, Suddenly they heard a humongous loud roar in the background. Only one looking perplexed shrieks " what was that " ? The Great Bear the group replies in unison. They could hear the footsteps getting closer but they had no option, was either burn and poison yourself in the swamp or stand up against the great beast. The Noise stops, the group stood still. Moments later, the bear pops out of the brush in front of the group and let's out a huge roar. They had no choice but to fight the bear.
They all drew thier weapons and charged at the bear. One after another the Bear whipped his arms and pushed his foes as if he were batting flies off his fur. Once they were all down, the bear moved to his first victim Only One. His weapon was away from him and tries to reach for it. At this point, the bear was almost ready for his attack. Only One closes his eyes bracing for the attack, but he had a saving grace. Spectre lunges towards the bear and leaps on his back. He sticks his sword through his back and grasps ahold of it. The bear starts shaking back and forth trying to free himself from the grasp of spectre. After a minute, spectre loses grip and falls to the right of the bear. Instead of continuing to attack Only One, The bear works his way towards spectre that was lying down with his arm around his ribs. He works his way up, now facing the bear. Seconds later, he gets slashed by the beast and flies back some. Grendel yells " Quickly Bankai throw a smoke bomb ". He pulls from his boot again unleashing his last smoke bomb and throws it at the bear. For a minute or 2 the bear could not see saving spectre's life. The bear backed up a little and stepped into swamp. The beast groaned in pain. Orochiholic then had his idea, he grabbed a few arrows from his quiver and dips the tips of them into the swamp. After that he pulls out his bow and starts letting arrows fly towards the bear. The bear started experiencing more pain but not enough to kill it. It makes it way to now his third target instead of finishing off spectre. Orochiholic kept shooting but at last, didn't draw any more arrows and backed up towards the tree. Grendel and Bankai rush towards the bear, this time without thier weapons. Thier plan was to push the bear into the swamp. At no avail, they fail again and get slammed against the ground. The bear continued to move towards Orochiholic. With mere inches left, the bear pulls back his arm going for the attack. Orochiholic braced the tree and closed his eyes expecting the end. He hears a groaning shriek by the bear and opens his eyes. There he sees a blade pierced the whole way through the bears chest. On the other side was Only one holding his blade through the animal as it finally drops to the ground. The team all on the ground but Only One, let out a big sigh in relief and smiled.
The team continued home. Time was not on the essence and it started to get Dark. The group could not see anymore. Minutes later, a light came from the shadows and there they seen Dark Side with his torch. Orochiholic asked with a smile to his face " what are you doing here ". Dark Side replied " just had a feeling ". They continued home and finally arrived at the house. Before entering, Dark Side looks around and asks " Where's CaediteEos ". The group just looked down and said he's dead. They had a moment of silence standing outside the house and then looked up at the beautiful night sky where a shooting star went by. Orochiholic said " I bet he's looking down right now very proud of us ". Dark Side noded as the group enter the house where they seen Exile still laying on the bed in a coma. Grendel handed the Artifacts to the healing Priest, Dark Side and says " We can make this Work "
