Fable: The Ties that Bind (RP Thread)

[Tiffany Grimm]

Robin fires a volley of arrows at the thieves.

[Haylie]

The rifle-bandit drops quickly from an arrow in his throat. "Excellent shot, Robin," remarks Scarlet as she head-shots another bandit still trying to navigate the surrounding trees.

Apparently, Lyon's bandit isn't all that good after all. His legs are knocked out from under him. As he falls, he impales himself on his own sword.

Cletus's bandit leaps backward at the last second, then swipes downward with his own blade.

[Shadowmaster]

"Hmph...here I was hoping you would at least be a challenge." Lyon says. he then looks around to see if there are any bandits left to fight.

[muffinstud]

Cletus manages to block with the haft of his axe. He kicks the bandit back and tries butting him in the head with the handle.

[Haylie]

Lyon sees one more bandit coming towards him that Scarlet missed. His eyes are wide and he's screaming like a maniac with a bomb strapped to his chest. In his right hand he's carrying a sword, holding it like a spear.

Cletus's bandit falls back, clutching his head and groaning. "Bloody hell, that hurt!"

Just as Scarlet shoots another bandit, a second shot rings out. A hole appears on Scarlet's wrist, which quickly begins spewing blood and causes her to drop her gun. She screams and clutches her arm, dropping to her knees. A final bandit runs behind her to stab her back.

[Tiffany Grimm]

The final bandit attacking Scarlet is shot by Robin. He is hit right in the heart by an exceedingly sharp arrow. "Did I... Kill him?"

[Shadowmaster]

Lyon waits until the bandit is close enough before striking at the bandit's neck.

[muffinstud]

Cletus pulls out his pistol and fires at at the human bomb, trying for a head shot.

[Haylie]

Lyon swipes and manages to nick the bandit's throat. Cletus just finishes the job by hitting him... well, let's just say his nose will never be quite the same.

Cletus's first bandit, still holding his head, is shot in the back by the man in the tree. There doesn't seem to be any more bandits other than the ones whipping the villagers about a hundred yards away.
"Just ain't the same without ol' Crimson here. He actually put up a good fight."

Scarlet, still on her knees, manages to lift her good arm enough to give the man the finger.

[Kris_Roth]

Aloena attempts to heal up the Guildmistress as she hopes the others would finish off the bandits. They would have to talk later, once they complete their missions.

[muffinstud]

Cletus tucks away his pistol and spits on the nearest dead bandit. "Don't move. Oh wait, you can't." He looks at the bandits in the distance, fire still in his eyes.

[Shadowmaster]

"Stupid bandits..." Lyon says. He then notices the man in the tree. "Who are you?" he asks.

[Haylie]

"Name's Lionheart. Beat the Crucible three times. Thinkin' about a fourth. Now to what do I owe the honor of you bloody Heroes crashin' my displacement party?"

The bandits in the distance didn't seem to notice the battle, or else they completely ignored it. A young woman is whipped so hard her back is ripped open and she falls to her knees, screaming. The bandit that whipped her kicks her until she gets back up.

Scarlet flexes her hand, making sure she can still use it, not totally convinced the spell did the job.

[Knight Errant]

A chuckle is heard as a man steps out of the nearby trees. His outfit, though weatherbeaten, wouldnt cause a posh gent to look twice. The pistols strapped to his rather nice shirt might, though. And while elegant and well-made, the cutlass at his side is undeniably... a cutlass.

Looking over at the bandit. "Crucible, Crucible... why is every bandit leader in Albion must claim to have bested that... If I had a gold piece for every fool who claimed to have fought in the Crucible..."

"Well I wouldnt be stuck here collecting bounties on scum like you now, would I?"

[muffinstud]

Cletus swings to Lionheart, both hands on his axe at his side. "You make them stop. Now." He has a viscious snarl.
