From the depths of the forest near the training yard, an Ebony Bear charged out frothing at its mouth.
"You know what, change of plans. Whoever beats the bear first, is better." Jarald challenged his brother. Harald just grinned.
"Critical Pierce!" Jarald's lance pierced the bear though its shoulder. Pained and enraged by the lance sticking out of its side, the Ebony Bear charged at Harald, who was readying up a shot.
"Hail Wind!"
The bear had just swiped its claw at the small figure when it froze.
"Oh great Harald, you got my lance stuck."
"Pull it out."
"Why don't you?"
"It's your property."
"Fine..." Jarald carefully climbed up the towering ice figure, careful not to slip. He headed towards his lance when...
"RAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Ice fragments flew as the bear broke free of its prison.
"JARALD!"
Trapped underneath the bear's paw, Jarald could only cringe as the Ebony Bear readied for the kill.
"May Beddor guide this blow, Dark Shatter!"
The fiend could only scream in agonized pain as it "broke" into shadowy pieces and faded in the sunlight.
"JARALD!" Harald rushed towards his twin, who was trying to stand up.
"Ugh, hey, well, it's a tie, eh...?" Jarald fainted from the agony of trying to stand on two broken legs.
"Looks like he's awake now."
The lancer blinked, slowly registering his surroundings.
"JARALD! YOU'RE OKAY!" Harald tackled the bedded Jarald, who immediately yelled with pain. His brother had landed on his newly healed legs.
"Get off!" He winced and pushed of Harald, who landed on the floor with a thump.
"Good thing we had a visit from a clergy eh?" Harald grinned at his brother, who painfully smiled back.
"Well, well, so this is the victim?"
Jarald could only stare in surprised shock as his savior looked quite..similar to the twins.
"You look like us..only much skinnier."
"That's what I've been hearing." Kriel could only chuckle as the squire tried to close his open mouth.
"Jarald, this is Lord Kriel...you know?"
"HE'S WHAT?"
Notes: Yes, moar lame-ass dialogue, but finally! I'm dun with the intros of chars introing each other! Nao teh hard part... Sigh.
"You know what, change of plans. Whoever beats the bear first, is better.
ReplyDeletelol love this part.
It reminds me of that story with those two people who are running from a bear. And the first person says to the second person "I just realized that I don't have to outrun the bear. I just have to outrun you."
Lol that's a nice story.
