Stormbroken (Thorns of Steel TP)

From Redwall MUCK Wiki


This picks up from the point in "Now is the time to break the storm" when Pike ran off to the north, into the fields of Ferravale, seperate from the rest of the defenders. A mistake. Here's why...

Pike pants, he twierls and manages to behead a couple monitors, he slices at a raven and it falls, he grins and stands looking around, he smirks "Yeah...otter one villains zero" He chuckles.

Suddenly a white-cloaked, silver-furred figure is standing a short distance ahead of him, slowly whirling a bolas. "No. Otter: Zero. Stormfeather: Infinite."

Pike looks at the cloaked figure and chuckles "Ya one beast, and I have me twin blades, ye face Pike and I done already killed, umm...well who cares they be dead monitors now."He walks closer and swirls his twin blades once. "Give up if ye know what good fer ya"

"The monitors were of no consequence; they were expendable." A low, menacing laugh follows this. "Swords are useless against /my/ weapon. And I never surrender, although you would be wise to do so." The bolas begins to clack as the steel globes whirl faster and faster...

Pike watches the bolas and stays slightly away, he narrows his eyes and then goes to attempt a slice at Stormfeather's legs, either would do as he don't really aim, "I don't surrender neither"

The bolas is not the threat yet, despite Vladmir's statement. His short hacking sword is drawn out in a flash and swiped at Pike's side even as the fox sidesteps the otter's blades.

Pike was not expecting to be hit with the blade and gasps in pain, his one blade goes to try and slash the bolas and it makes the blade break, his eyes go wide and he yells out in rage and throws the other at Stormfeather aiming to make it stab into the fox if possible, blood pours down his side as he falls, he gets back up and glares at the fox, "Ya pay fer that...vermin scum"

Quickly moving the bolas upwards to protect himself, Vladmir blocks the thrown sword...mostly.  It snaps and half of the blade flies off and rends his face from lower left jaw to right brow.  Baring his teeth as blood runs across his face, Vladmir hisses, "And so shall you, saltscum."  His eyes twinkle madly, and that's the only warning before he steps back and hurls the bolas with lightning speed, aiming at Pike's chest...

Pike goes to move, the bolas miss his chest luckly but wrap around his lower waist,his eyes go wide as they balls of metal slam into his back, he yells out in pain,though the pain only lasts a few secounds as snaping of bone is heard, he falls flat onto his face and into some mud, he gasps and coughs and goes to get up, he suddenly gets a look of fear in his eyes "I..I can't feel me..me legs!" He pushs himself with his arms a little ways from the cloaked fox and starts to panic, he can't move anything wasit down, "Wot..What did ya do ta me!"

"I warned you. You ignored it." Vladmir smirks and his eyes sparkle a bit brighter. "Now you learn your last lesson, although too late to save yourself...Do not seek to cross swords with Stormfeather." He turns and walks away disdainfully, leaving the sea otter to die there in the mud...Although Pike still breathes...
