The Death Game

[KylinRage]

Note:I will be writing The Tournament along with this story at the same time.

Starving from hunger, four criminals were wandering, banished from Hydlaa, Akkaio, and Ojaveda. The leader of the gang was Henson, a bulky Ylian who was not only strong but smart. On his left side was Karelo(My character ingame, but he is a knight, not a criminal in the game) who was new in the gang, a frail and young Enkidukai. On Henson\'s right was Jemiah, a cunning and swift female Diabolo. Lastly, trailing behind their trail was another Ylian name Jeremy,who was good at picklocking. Yesterday morning the Supreme Court of Yliakum banished them from all towns.
\"Aww, I should not have joined you guys,\" murmured Karelo,\"I would have been bette-Ugh!\"
Henson punched Karelo in the middle of his speech, sending him spinning and plopping on to the prickly rocks. Karelo slowly groaned and unhappily followed the gang once again. Henson halted, everyone halted in the same time, but Karelo stopped to late and bumped into Jermy\'s back, stumbling slightly.
\"Look,\" cried Henson,\"A village! Let us go sack the place!\"
\"You think to quick,\" said Jemiah,\"We have to sneak through the guards!\"
They crept slowly all with daggers out, except for Karelo with nothing but his bare hands. The group all struck at the same time. One guard managed to punch Jeremy square in the face, making fall on Jemiah like a domino. Karelo grabbed the guard\'s leg ignorantly, distracting the guard and allowing Henson to choke him. However, Henson did not. Karelo was then helplessly flung around. He passed out. Then when he opened his eyes, he found his partners and himself in a chariot, a masked Kran riding the horse in front. Where could this place be?

Edit on previous section:The Kran was pulling the cart himself.
Karelo kept staring at Henson\'s direction. He was waiting for orders, but Henson thought it was queer and glared suspiciously at him. Jemiah signaled others to remain lying down. The rest of the gang watched he draw the dagger and thought she would slit the Kran\'s neck. Instead, she stabbed through the chest of the rock hard Kran and he gradually halted to a stop. He turned around, with his masked face looking at the Diabolo. He attempted to punch Jemiah, but as Jemiah removed her knife, he fell to pieces.
\"Oh great,\"groaned Jeremy,\"where are we supposed to go now?\"
\"Shut up! Your pathetic whining will be answered,\"hissed Jemiah.
Once again the criminals were traveling through the woods. Rogues and practically anything that saw them ignored them like they were specks of dust.
\"Sometimes,\" murmured Karelo,\"I always think you guys are trying to kill me or something. Especially you,Henson, with your bulky abs and foul mouth-Arghh!\"
The next second Karelo was stabbed in the wrist for insulting the leader. Karelo groaned mournfully, blood dripping onto his foot.
\"You say a word again, kitty-cat,\"snapped Henson,\"I\'ll smash you!\"
\"Y-Yes master,\"stammered Karelo.
No one said a word for an hour, until everyone cannot contain their hunger any longer. They frantically looked around, finding food. They managed to only get a few mushrooms. How were they supposed to survive?
It was then the answer had come. Two monkey-like young nude Ylians with nothing but loincloths to wear as underpants saw them and giggled at them.
\"What is so funny!?\" growled Jeremy.
They stopped giggling and ran back into the cave, beckoning them to follow. As they entered, they saw a stone platform with one of the Ylians grounding some wheat. The Ylians then presented some corn as an appetizer. Karelo wanted to eat, but Jeremy slapped his hand like the Enkidukai was a naughty little child.
\"The master eats first,\"explained Jeremy,\"it is just the way it is.\"
Henson took the corn and ate the entire thing in one bite. After that, he took some cornbread and gorged on it. They waited for an hour for the Ylian to stop. Then the rest of the gang enjoyed. That night, they set off to climb the mountains.
As they climbed through storms of rain, they reached the top and realized that there was a tomb. They entered, torches lighted. As they ventured down the steps, everything became gloomier. Hisses of steam appeared here and there, sometimes letting little clackers out. As they reached a solid platform, they sat down. As they began conversing, something stopped them. A loud roar from downstairs echoed through the hall. Everyone pushed Karelo and Henson to see what happened. As the two ventured down the steps, they could not beleive what they were seeing. A mammoth carkass was sitting there in front of them with four intelligent grendols armed with bows at the ready. The carkass roared once again, letting the grendols fire a ton of arrows.
Henson dodged them charging at the carkass. Karelo ducks and dodges four and jumps back to dodge to more . However, he got shot by four of the arrows, sinking deep into his chest. His fur began changing blood red from the trickling blood floods down his body, while another arrow sinks into his arms and cheek. Weakly, he stared at his leader. Henson was now coiled in the carkass\'s tail, blood and pus oozing out like he was a squeezing orange. The Enkidukai saw it and his throat choked with blood, now coming out in streams.Once Henson has fallen, Karelo frantically ran up the stairway, tripping here and there. By the time he reached where his friends were, his face was battered and bruise. Jeremy and Jemiah stared at him in horror.
\"H-Henson is d-dead,\" stammered Karelo frantically,\"we must g-get out of here....now...\"
\"Why?\" inquired Jemiah and Jeremy.
\"N....No time to say it...now,\"repkied Karelo,\"it is....sheer....terror...\"

Can you please give me feedback, I want to know how I can improve. As they always say, there is always room for improvement!

[shorty13]

i dont think anyone could survive 10 arrows.  And way to make ur character look like a dumby.

Not a bad story though.

[KylinRage]

I changed ten to four so the grendols will not be so ellite in accuracy as to fire ten arrows that hit . Also maybe I\'m going to add a sentence to make my character show some effort

[zorbels]

I liked it, I could picture what you were discibing when I read the story. I look forward to reading more.....

[KylinRage]

The New section has finally arrived

Jeremy widened his eyes and shook in terror,\"You mean he is-\"
\"Y-Yes,\" stammered Karelo,\" w-we must... haste...\"
The three ran as quick as they could up the stairs. Suddenly, they heard noises upstairs. They sounded familiar so they eavesdropped.
\"I am telling you that carkass is as easy as Headcutting John!\" argued the bolder voice.
\"But he was not easy, so I prove my point: This beast is a force to be reckoned with.\" replied the other.
The three had to flee, so they busted out, knocking the two onto the ground. All of a sudden the two seem extremely familiar. In front of them were a Klyros and a red furred spotted Enkidukai.
\"Y-You are-\" stammered Karelo.
\"It is time you realized that we are Den and Mawl,\" mumbled Den. (This was before the epilogue of Den. You know, the \"when they grow old\" part.)
All of them stared at the two legendary icons. Mawl was now wielding a blue broad scimitar with shining spiked armor, while Den wears tough iron armor like that of a knight\'s and a golden legendary rapier.
\"Amazing,\" said Mawl,\"that is the most blood that I have ever seen!\" He stared at Karelo\'s bloodstained fur.
\"Yes.....\" murmured Karelo.
\"We must take him back,\" added Den,\" he is grieviously wounded.\"
\"But we are banished from Hyddlaa and Ojaveda!\" stammered Jemiah.
\"Do not say th-\" hissed Jeremy.
\"Cirminals,\" grunted Mawl,\"I do not believe it!\"
\"But our leader has fallen and has been crushed in there!\" argued Karelo.
\"Very funny. I thought someone as strong as him could have crushed that carkass. It-\" Mawl was cut short in his speech as Karelo mentions four intelligent grendols wielding bows. Mawl then realized what a challenge it would have been.
\"I can still bring you into town,\" said Den,\"the guards will not rise suspicion in my actions-well... at least rarely.\"
As they hiked down the mountain, they met a couple of rogues who attempted to tackle Den and Mawl but miss and fall off the cliff. The party reached the bottom by dark, and set up camp there. Den took out a alchemy book. Mawl peeked over but den hit him in the nose and he retreated back, whimpering and cursing under his breath. Den found the page he was looking for. He skimmed it, closed the book, and burnt mushrooms in the campfire.
\"What...are you doing?\" asked Karelo.
\"Making a potion,\" replied Den.
He added water into the mushrooms and a bit of rat hide.
\"Here drink it,\" said Den,\" It will heal your wounds. After that jump in that lake over there to rinse of the blood.\"
Karelo drank the potion unwillingly, but his pain drastically reduced afterwards. He walked towards the shallows and rinsed himself. When he returned to camp, he looked as fine as ever. Den yawns lazily and slowly lulled himself to sleep. Mawl did the same, except he did not lull himself like Den. Jeremy slept by the tree, so it was Jemiah and Karelo left. For the next hour, Jemiah kept staring at Karelo with a soft and friendly look, while he did not understand and looked away.
\"Why are you looking at me?\" asked a confused Karelo.
\"You know,\" replied Jemiah in a soft tone,\"I feel sorry for you, being a new person in the group. I have to admit you are kind of cute. You do not actually need to be here if it were not for Henson. \" She pinched Karelo in the cheek.
\"No! It is romance!\" cried Karelo mournfully. All of a sudden Jemiah pinched again. He groaned in disgust.
\"Get off me!\" cried Karelo. He is not your average romantic person.
\"You are a little different from the others,\" replied Jemiah,\"I just think you do not deserve to be treated badly. I may look like a vile criminal, but I was forced to join this group, just like you. Henson was extremely cruel, and threatened to kill my family if I refused. I am just trying to fit in.\" She looked up at the stars with some homesick look. Karelo understood now. Jemiah knew that he was suffering inside. Not only is he understood now, but he attracted some attention. Inside, he was slightly satisfied and slightly disgusted from the pinches. He drowsily fell asleep along with Jemiah.
The next morning, Den shook everyone awake. He took out some bread and berries for breakfast. Everyone ate at a quick rate. Karelo felt the pain again, but it was not as serious as the time he was shot. Den explained that it slowly reduced the pain, but he still needs treatment at a hospital. They walked through the forest and reached the gate, which was armed with guards.
\"Den and Mawl,\" said the guard captain,\"why are you bringing these three back? They are of no honor.\" He spat at Karelo, Jemiah, and Jeremy.
\"They have learned their lesson, Genghis. LET THEM Go.\" proteseted Mawl.
\"YOU FELL FOR MY TRICK!\" laughed Genghis,\"NOW I CAN TAKE THE PLACE AS HERO! ARGGH!\"
He charges with his pike, gaining momentum at a fast rate. He almost hit Den, but Den sidestepped a little, the pike missing him by an inch. He counterattacked by swiping the foot of Genghis off the ground. The Demorian tripped and fell down. The other guards surrounded the group. Jemiah stabbed a guard, and sliced his arm off. The more the group fought, the more tired they were. Den and Mawl tried protecting the rest of the party, but they are now very fatigued and are trying to defend themselves. A guard nearly beheaded Karelo, but Jemiah parried the blow. Hours passed, and the numbers of guards were still sufficent. The outside of the gate is now a endless field of bodies. Everyone was exhausted, but Jeremy gave in. He did not parry the blow and he was knocked in the head senseless, carried away by two guards.
\"It is too much,\" panted Mawl,\" and Genghis is now regaining energy.\"
They saw the guard captain charging at Jemiah, but den defended with his arm, the pike painfully jabbing into his armor. He groaned in pain, signaling Jemiah to attack Genghis. The female Diabolo tried but her arm was grabbed by a guard, flinging here into a tree. Karelo hesitated. Should he see if Jemiah is alright, or should he continue? He pondered that question. For the sake of the only one in the group that understood him, he ran towards the tree.
\"Jemiah, are you alright!?\" asked Karelo.
The Diaboli slowly recovered, and she weakly opened her eyes.
\"I..am..fine...\"said Jemiah,\" you must fight.... do not worry.... I am a..worthless...person.
\"You are not! You are not!\" cried Karelo, tears rolling down his eyes,\"you understand how I feel! How can I let you just go like this!?\"
\"Den and Mawl....already are willing...to help..you,\" she smiled weakly,\"you must pay them back. You do not owe me anything........\"
\"Please! You must survive!\" cried Karelo,\" I can only fight with you by my side! I must help you! I do have something to repay to you!\" He began weeping, worrying that Jemiah will die.
\"Please.....I...will..survive...\"replied Jemiah,\"...finish..the guards...off....\"
Karelo did not want to leave his friend here, but yet he wanted to be loyal. He wiped his tears from his eyes and nodded. He ran back into the crowd. This time, all of his sadness became anger and the will to avenge. He fumed as he fought the guards, and not long after that his anger tipped off the scales.
\"ARGHHH! YOU WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS! I WILL NOT LET YOU GET AWAY WITH HURTING JEMIAH!!!!!!!!\" he roared so mad it acted like a warcry. Many of the guards fled as the furious Enkidukai hacked at the others, nearing Genghis. Den and Mawl started beheading the guards instead of simply stabbing them. Mawl became so beserk, he stabbed every enemy ten times when they were dead, or until their corpes looked like a mashed up rat, grappling the corpse and flinging it onto another guard. They were motivated by Karelo\'s anger, therefore sometimes becoming beserk. Not so far away, Jemiah was staring in awe, weakly smiling at Karelo\'s direction. She was glad that Karelo did what he was supposed to do.
Genghis, desparately trying to get other assistance, all of a sudden did strange things, his whole body started to quiver, and all of the sudden he burst out of his armor. Now he looked a third Ulbernaut, a third Ynnwn, and a third Demorian. All of a sudden the party\'s hopes decreased, all staring at  the bulging figure that was once Genghis. Genghis swiped Mawl aside, flying into a tall rock, blood splattered all over. Next, a frail Karelo was thrown into the ground, landing right next to Jemiah. Now his head was throbbing in pain, and he was in his own blood. His fur is again blood red. He looked at Jemiah slowly but weakly. Jemiah stared at him back and gave him a frail smile that tells Karelo everything will be fine. He squinted a Den and Genghis.
Den was now fighting valiantly, parrying blows from Genghis and stabbing his foe at the foot.
Genghis grew even larger now and his eyes seemed to burn in green flame. He clutched Den, trying to rip his head off, as the Klyros constantly attempts to chop the giant\'s wrist.
That moment his vision blurred and a figure ran through Genghis\'s hand slickly, making him fall down. He landed with the hand as padding at looked at who it was who saved him. A Kran that seemed extremely familiar, with his green body and red ruby eyes.
\"St-Stepfather?\" Den looked at the Kran.
\"Yes Den,\" replied the stepfather,\"I am here to help you. I will not let you die right here. I promised to the gods that I will protect you for your entire life.\"
Den gaped in awe. It had been approximately 10 seasons since he seen his stepfather. It was such a awe- inspiring sight, he wriggled out of the sliced hand and stood by his father. The others gained back their enthusiasm and accompanied them, no matter how wounded they were.
\"FOOLS!\" roared Genghis,\"I am still stronger than you!\"
Mawl and Karelo jumped onto a tree nearby, and jumped onto Genghis\'s arm, gripping it with their weapons.Genghis flung them off, and Den striked with his step father by dragging their swords through Genghis\'s chest. Genghis then counter-attacked, disarming the stepfather. Jemiah saw that it was her chance, and climbed onto the monster\'s head and pierced his neck. Genghis roared in pain, Jemiah jumped off in time just to see his corpse explode. Blood rained on them,  along with bits of skin and flesh. A weary and frail Demorian form of Genghis crawled out of the rubble.
\"You have devolved,\"said Mawl,\"It is time you die.\"
\"But..wait..\" stammered Genghis in fear,\" Can you forgive.....me?\"
\"NO! AFTER YOU HAVE HURT JEMIAH!\" roared Karelo, who was only restrained by the one he cared.
\"It is bad to kill someone who secures the town, but good if he had commited a large sin.\" grinned Den. He snapped his fingers, two guards came out, and brought Genghis to trial.
\"Jemiah, are you alright now?\" asked Karelo.
\"Yes. However, let us enter Hydlaa to heal now.\" replied Jemiah. They walked into the town with new enthusiasm.

[KylinRage]

New Section.
Note: To explain myself in the previous section, Genghis\'s trap is to gather enough suspicion on Den and Mawl to kill them and have reasons to back it up. OBVIOUSLY the plot failed.

As the party shuffled through the streets, many citizens stared in amazement. Den ignored some sharp insults, and Mawl hissed back.
As they reached a dark alleyway, Den signaled them to enter it. In front of them a repulsive-looking Enkidukai sat on a crate, waiting for them.
His body was nearly wrapped entirely with bandages, his arms ripped of its flesh. His ears stuck out tipped with blood, and a intensified red eye appeared in a gap between the bandages. His hands are bloody with gore, and a piece of bloodstained bone armor wrapped around his torso.
\"Den,\" the abnormal figure spoke in a ghastly yet bold tone,\"what do you want now?\"
\"These two are criminals like you used to be, Resango, so I ask for your help to treat their wounds.\" replied Den.
Resango motioned towards a door, beckoning them to follow. Karelo was unsure, but Jemiah entered confidently.
In the room, candles dimly lit the area, and at one corner a pile of skeletons were placed in a pool of toxic chemicals. Karelo sat down, and the others did so as well.
\"I\'ll introduce myself to the criminals,\" hissed Resango.\"I am Resango, and I have been a criminal for many seasons. I am wrapped in bandages because my meat is spoiled from more than a thousand weapon wounds and toxin constantly spilling on my body. I used to be a brave warrior and a intellectual healer. However, when I murdered a Klyros who has a high position in a guild. After that, the rest of the guild members found me and put me in a prison. There, the wardens would spray toxic all over me and inflict wounds on my body daily. However, I found out that one part of the wall was extremely weak, and I chipped through it and escaped. I was socially unaccepted because of my ugly features, so I took some wrappings to cover it. Now I am completely forgotten by the guild that imprisoned me, so I am free.\"
\"Long story,\" murmured Jemiah,\" explain the bone armor that is shaped like a rib.\"
\"Oh,\" spoke Resango,\" that. well, I found this lifeless Ylian in the alleyway, and, using my magic, absorbed his bones, The ribbed popped out and all of a sudden stuck to my torso and wrapped itself around. Must be a curse or something.\"
\"Resango,\" replied Mawl,\"I think you should start healing now.\"
Resango place one arm on Jemiah\'s back and another on Karelo. He closed his eyes, murmuring a spell, and all the cuts and wounds slowly healed. Resango then walked into a dark passage, and came out with Jeremy.
\"Saw the guards take him across the street, and snatched him right out of their hands.\" giggled Resango.
Jeremy looked fine, since he was treated by Resango.
\"In return,\" asked Resango,\" can I follow these two? I have not travelled for a long time.\"
\"Sure,\" replied Mawl,\" we do need another person anyways.\"
They left town through a hidden passage,leading out to the woods. Resango occasionally screamed in pain, and he would explain that the toxin gives him it, but does not shorten his lifespan. As they walked through the road, they faced many ulbernauts, usually defeated by Resango with his death-dealing claws. Karelo wanted to refight the mother carkass and the grendols, and everyone agreed. They took Jeremy\'s directions, and soon found themselves on top of the peak with the tomb. They walked down the stairs until they hear the roar clearly. Before they went down to fight, they all huddled in a circle and stacked their hands in the center.
\"Good luck,\" said Mawl,\" and stay together. On the count of three, charge.One..\" Their eyes narrowed with tension, sweaating in pressure.
\"Two...\" They draw out their weapons slowly, carefully lifting them out.
\"THREE!\" The group charged holding up their blades and axes, and  ran down the stairs to encounter the mother carkass.....
TO BE CONTINUED

[KylinRage]

The New Chapter has begun

As the party dashed down the spiral staircase, Karelo can smell the rotting bones of the fallen leader. As they reached the bottom floor, the grendols were at the ready again, arrows in hand. Resango, being a battlemage by nature, chose to stay back and support the others.  Mawl skillfully bounced off a wall and disarmed a grendol. Bewildered, the monster blindly swiped the ground and nearly striked Den and Mawl, who were just out of reach. Jemiah attempted to stab the carkass, but the carkass shifted back a little and Jemiah tripped over.
\"DRATS!\" yelled Jemiah.
\"Don\'t worry,\" said Karelo,\"I\'ll guard you!\" He sprung and grabbed Jemiah by the hand and fled the scene quickly.

Resango blasted a fireball at a grendol, which made a distraction. The furious grendol bashed Resango, who immediatley self-healed his wound. Mawl jumped onto the grendol\'s back, his sword magically becoming a big extended blade which pierced through the mad monstorosity, sending blood spraying messily onto the floor. However, as Mawl heard Karelo call for help, he took off. As the heroic Enkidukai ran towards his companion, he was shot by a volley of arrows from the grendol he left behind. The half-dead beast slowly rose back into a battle stance. Mawl squirmed for a moment, and went motionless. The grendol fired another volley at Jeremy and Jemiah when they tried to save Mawl. As Karelo tried to retaliate, Den swooped down from the ari and took him up to a hidden platform.
Den looked frustrated and angry, as he slammed Karelo against the wall, pressing on him, making sure he won\'t run.
\"LOOK WHAT YOU DONE!\" screamed Den,\"YOU HAVE CAUSED HALF OF US TO LAY DEAD! MY FRIEND MAWL IS NOW PINNED BY ARROWS AND SO ARE YOUR FRIENDS! HOW COULD YOU EVEN BECOME A WARRIOR LIKE THIS!? EVEN NOW AT THIS MOMENT RESANGO IS TRYING TO RESURRUCT THEM IN THE HEAT OF BATTLE! WHAT IS UP WITH YOU!!!?\"
Karelo shivered in fear, seeing the mad face of the Klyros in front of him.
\"It wasn\'t my fault!\" screamed Karelo,\" I didn\'t even know that grendol was half dead! WHY ARE YOU BLAMING ME!? Are you not responsible for part of this!???\"
\"WELL SHUT YOUR RABID MOUTH UP!\" screamed Den in absolute fury,\"YOU JUST AS WELL DIE WITH THE REST OF THEM! I WILL NOT LISTEN TO YOUR EXCUSES! YOU ASK IF I AM RESPONSIBLE, HUH!? WELL I AM NOT! I AM NOT!!! YOU HEAR ME!? I WAS HELPING YOUR FRIENDS ALL ALONG! I DON\'T CARE IF YOU WILL COMPLAIN, KID! LET\'S SETTLE THIS RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!\"
Den flung Karelo back down, and jumped down as well. Karelo dizzily sighted Resango resisting arrows shooting him at his back, trying to ressurect the others. Karelo dashed over and stabbed the grendol bravely, remembering what Den had said. He saw the grendol freeze and fall limp on the floor. He turned around and saw Den, Swooping down at a grendol, slicing its head off.
At that very moment, a battlecry sounded through the staircase. Out came a Demorian in shining golden armor, wearing a winged helmet. Den immediatley turned around.
\"Genghis!\" called Den,\" I thought you were in prison!\"
\"Huh,\" chuckled Genghis,\" you think I\'ll perish that easily?\"
Genghis rolled forward and humped to stab a grendol in the face. Karelo who was still startled, did not realize, Mawl\'s hand on his shoulder.
\"I\'m alive,\" said Mawl calmly,\" don\'t worry now. Let\'s finish the fight together.\"
\"I\'m afraid these two are long lost in the Death Realm.\" sighed Resango, who was pinting at the two friends.
\"Wh-What!?\" stammered Karelo,\" She can\'t b-\"
\"No, she can\'t be ressurected,\" said Resango.
\"All of a sudden Karelo\'s face became grave, and he picked up Jemiah\'s corpse and buried it in the soft floor.
\"I\'m afraid this will be the last time I\'ll see you...\" murmured Karelo in a crestfallen tone. He began sobbing silently, and did the same for Jeremy.
Mawl parried a incoming arrown which could have killed Karelo, as the two charged once again into the fray. Resango summoned all his energy to shot a huge fireball, slaughtering the other grendols. Now only the mother carkass remained.
\"Den!\" called Genghis,\"Let\'s finish her off!\"
Karelo wanted to join, but Mawl stopped him and said,\" Let\'s see how they fare.\"
Genghis took out his broad silver blade, and quickly sliced off the tail. However, he was fatally injured by a bite, and now he clenched his arm, now bulging with blood. Cursing under his breath, he tried to distract the carkass so that Den can kill her, but he was whipped onto a wall.
It was only Den left. He was charging at the carkass, until the carkass glowed a eerie purple, and shrinking into a barbaric Ylian.
\"John The Headcutter?\" gasped Den. (anyone remember that name from my other story Den?
\"THE SECOND!\" roarded John,\" I\'m making you pay for what you did to may father!\"
The barbaric being lashed at Den, stabbing through the left pauldron of the Klyros\'s armor. Den moaned in pain, and attempted to lunge at John with his wounded arm. John easily ducked and stabbed Den in the leg. He frenzily ripped of his armor and started attemoting to rip him to pieces. Den, who now was fearing for his life, quickly took the sword and stabbed John as soon as the rogue bit his leg. He winced and cringed, hoping the stab was effective. John fell backwards, and he was no more.
Den dusted himself, put back on his armor, told everyone to follow, and soon all of them were out, not knowing what lay ahead of them.

I took alot of work on this chapter. Phew, it was tough. hope you enjoyed!
