A Tale of Swords and Stabbing...well kinda
« on: November 22, 2005, 02:10:29 am »
I dont do much story writing....mainly cause i lose interest too quick... but im having a go which might mean something damned it!

I havent picked a name for the story yet...

-----------------------------------------------------------

Seperot stares into the mirror....

Around him a tattered room plaster off the walls, rips and punch marks all around, a dresser overturned and broken as if it was stomped on.

The mirror stares at Seperot....

The bed clawed to bits, feathers all over the floor, The only window showing light though the broken glass, half the
floor ripped up.

Seperot smiles at himself in the mirror, Standing up he fixes his hair and puts on his jacket. \"mmmh\" Seperot said \"one of them nights....\" The enki looks at his blood soaked hands, then down at his unconscious victim that he is standing
on.

\"I\'m sorry it had to come to this\" Seperot smiling at the Ylian \"But spying is a profession full of difficult times,
and this is most certainly one of them.\" Seperot then stood off the bleeding man and gave him a few swift kicks, then picked him up so they where eye level. \"Now, are you going to tell me who set you to spy on me, or are we going to have another game of \'Wall Imprints\' mmmh?\"

The Ylian Spewed blood from his mouth \"No...please no more, I\'ll tell you.....just...*wheeze* no more pain...please..\"

Seperot\'s grin broaden by this response, the enki put the Ylian on the bed, lit a cigarette, and blew a stream of blue/grey smoke in the man\'s eyes \"well?\" Seperot growled.


Seperot walked down the stairs to the bar, It was still early in the day and the barkeep had only just woken up. \"Good nights sleep?\" the barkeep asked sarcastically.

\"It was hard at first, but it got more relaxing near the end\" Seperot Smiled \"I\'m checking out\".

The Barkeep stared deep into Seperots red eyes, then pulled out the book and Seperots personal items. \"2 Swords, 4 Daggers and a pouch full of various vials\" The owner asked \"is your \'friend\' checking out as well?\"

Seperot looked upwards then smiled \"I don\'t belive so, he will be paying for the room when he eventually checks out\" Seperots eyes where then drawn to the bottles of alcohol. \"Also, give me a bottle of wine...and put it on the room tab.\"

\"Your friend best have the cash for this\" The barkeep grumbled. Seperot didn\'t respond he just took the bottle and walked outside into the morning sunshine which had covered the land in its warm glow.

As the enki started waking for the path leading out of the small hamlet he heard the screams of \"The tavern is on fire! quickly someone get some water its all burning!\" The description forgot to mention the strong smell of alcohol all around the room, or that Sep had dropped his cigarette on the floor as he left the spy.


\"Lades and gentleman. Thank you for coming. As you know we have been keeping tabs on a few targets at the moment and here is our status report... Subject \"Nebu\" Has been seen around the city of yilikiollo. no activity strange to our spy so nothing too interesting to report.... Subject \"Pie\" on the other hand robbed 3 stores of all its cash, crystals, and swords....when one brave person grabbed his arm to stop him, Subject pie made a bizzare face and said \"You Fail!\" before head butting the poor fellow and running off....now that was the good news....\" The man who had been announcing all of this to a small table full of men and women of different races started to move uneasily \"There...has been a sight hitch with subject \'Seperot\' .... it...it seems he found our spy and did a forced interrogation on him before burning the place they both stayed.... from what we understand he lasted a good 10 hours of punishment before he cracked...but the word is he did say who we are and where he met us.\" This comment was met with hushed whispers all around, the man waited until it died down before saying \"It seems we will have to...go to orange alert with Subject Seperot\' and deal with him...swiftly.\"
--------------------------------------------------------------

(offhand notes)- the ciggy is not the commonly know tobbaco of our world but a series of herbs and leafs that when

combined cause the user to feel calmer. semi addictive

Subject Pie\'s face was kinda like :G


please be gentle :P

Err...I have absolutely no idea if this story has to do with Planeshift or not. Cigarettes didn\'t exist in a midieval time, yet you are using planeshift characters and places.

/me ish confused

Still weird, though. His character seems like a person you would find on the streets in RL, like part of a gang (or something similar)

Hah, I\'m finally finding the time to read through the RP forum :) If this is Seperot, then I must meet Seperot in-game sometime. Unarmed, hopefully, and if armed, then fighting the same enemy :P And if not in-game, then somewhere else with cookies and wary eyes.

I wish the formatting was a bit better, but it\'s readable - and you do leave the reader wanting more, always a good thing. Cheers to you!

I now give ye all Part 2 :o

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Umbra sighed Deeply. He looked around the dank alleyway he currently was sitting in. He always Imagined finding his brother would make his life calmer...insted he found his brother to be a constant whirlwind of hunter/hunted games with everyone he felt cause him problems. \'Newpie\' as he was know to the rest of the world had a sniff of the air and nearly gagged....rat droppings and what it smelt like dead hobo...Umbra sighed again it was clear to him that Seperot had fell into something deep....very deep.

\"Good lord, the armpit of a smelly barbarian would be a welcome scent after walking in here\" Remarked Seperot as he casually walked into the alleyway. \"Keeping busy little brother?\"

Newpie let out a grunt \"Fail, and something, or anything\"

\"Good to here it, I needed you to keep busy...but your works paid off, come on i got you a gift\" The black furred enki remarked before walking out of the alleyway, a bit faster then could be called casual.

Umbra smiled to himself. No matter how deep he falls in Seperot always has a way to get topside again...with that the white furred enki ran behind Seperot.

\"G - Ge - Gentalmen.\" The old man shivered. He hated the caves below Hydlaa, it was bad enough that heat rises leaving this far down to be toe freezing cold. but the fact he was facing a gang of heavily armed men who wear clothing that leaves little to the imagination, made the cold mocking as well as plain ol cold.

\"So, you be Wantin us to kill some people for you?\" The leader of the gang boomed out.

\"Yes...well no...well yes, but just one person\" The man shivered.

\"One person? HAH! hear dat boys? there got us out here for one guy.\" The leader rumbled with laughter \"Tell us the name of der person.\"

The Old man scrambled for a bit of paper \" One Seperot Darkstorm, A Black Enkidukai with...\" The old man looked up to the shocked eyes of the gang \"You\'ve heard of him?\"

\"The Red eyed devil? Who hasn\'t heard of him? we\'s heard he be as big as a house and eats children.\"

The old man looked down and smiled. he had forgotten that outside the main city\'s Seperot was a legend mother\'s used to make there children behave at night.  \"you will actually find gentlemen he is in fact a quite narrow framed person about average height....he is however very fast and brutal and once he gets wind of you....well I\'ll leave it to your discretion gentleman.\"  

\"Ok we\'ll do it m\'lord\" rumbled the leader \" Anyone who eats baby\'s is just sick!\"

\"So.....Stuff?\" Questioned Newpie,

Seperot was used to Umbra\'s way of communication, The trick was not what he spoke but the general speech and tone of how he says it. This of course required you to only asking questions in a certain fashion but it worked.

\" PLEASE, I DON\'T KNOW ANYTHING I\'LL GIVE YOU ANYTHING\" Pleaded the Klyros who was, at present hanging from the ceiling by his wings while his arms and legs where tied behind his back.

\"Fail?\" murmured Newpie.

\"Ok but only to his chest i wanna make sure he keeps awake\" Seperot responded with out even looking. Seperot held up a book to the swinging Klyros. \"Do you know what this is?\"

\"Err....err....err....a book?\" The winged person said sounding very puzzled.

\"Correct!\" Seperot then smacks the Klyros with the book\"See, you do know something... Now what do you know about the DGS?\"

The Klyros was now crying \"I don\'t KNOW anything about any DGS...i thought you said this was about some people called \'The Watchers\' i was spying for\"

Seperot looked at the Klyros and smiled \"Them? oh no, I killed all the members a week ago now...\"

The Klyros\'s eyes bulged at the shock of hearing that but then shut his eyes quickly, but it was too late...Seperot had noted the change of expression and the game was up.

\"This is my brother Newpie, He will be your....\'helper\' as you write down everything you know about the watchers.\" Seperot said laying a bit of paper on the floor. \"I\'m sure you wont mind using a bit of your blood as we do seem to have ran out of ink\"

Seperot nodded to Umbra then walked out the room behind him hearing the scream as the Klyros was pulled from the ceiling while his wings where still pinned to the ceiling.

Seperot walked out into the street. He normally kept walking down public ways to a minimum since it made it harder for people with a bounty on him to actually find him. But he had a meeting with Draklar down the tavern so figured it best get all used to the open mouthed stares as soon as possible since he was sure Kada would bar him if he had any more bar brawls. Seperot took a deep breath to feel good on how his investigations where going when he smelt something odd in the air.

\"Smelly...Barbarian armpit?\" he murmured then took a quick step to the left and was greeted with a great ax to his left. Seperot turned around quickly to see a huge Ylian, at least head and shoulders taller then Sep on the handle end of the ax...

--------------------------------------------------

Klyros was hanging from the celing by a pair of daggers stuck in the more fleshy parts

Edit: Made it more readable after a a suggestion i got :)

and now part 3!

-------------------------------------------------------
*Whump*

\'I really must have fell in with the wrong crowd this time\'

*Crunch*

\'I mean it was there fault for sending the spy on me in the first place\'

*Smash*

\'Setting a big barbarian on me is a bit much\'

Seperot realized he should possibly pay attention to that barbarian who is at present smashing fences barrels all manner of items in his path  as he chases Seperot down the alleyways. Seperot was trying to get far enough away from the yilan to get an edge....unfortunately anything he jumps over the barbarian swiftly follows breaking the item as if it was cardboard. Sep ran around another corner into a busy street, the idea being to just have more things in the way of the huge bulk behind him. Sep lept up in the air and started using the heads of the people walking though the streets as stepping stones looking behind him he saw the flow of bodys flying in the air as the man just pushed people out the way.

\'hah its working\' Seperot thought to himself \'now all i need is an alleyway and I\'m rid of this inbred ulbernaught\'

As Seperot Was jumping on the heads his eyes caught a glimmer. He turned and saw Aluna, Seperot was  busy admiring her and thinking of a way to get her attention and so forgot his surroundings. The enki snapped back to reality when he found he had ran to a dead end. Seperot turned around quickly to see the hulking mass of the barbarian, now looking far more annoyed then before, Seperot took a deep breath inwards and then the barbarian brought down his ax.


*sculnk*

The barbarian hit the floor with a large battle ax lodged in his head.

\"Your Late\" said the Enki behind the dead barbarian \" I figured you\'d gotten yourself into trouble again\"

Seperot Grinned \" Well Draklar, You clearly have the mind of a psychic, Should i give you cash now or do you need a crystal ball in front of you to tell my future\" Seperot then walked out the alleyway and got waphed on the back of the head by Draklar

\"Come on, out with it what have you gotten yourself into this time\" Draklar grumbled

\"All in good time my friend, First I belive i can hear the tavern calling me\"


The Tavern was usually a lively place. people far and wide came to Kada\'s Tavern for a drink or to meet old friends, A little known fact of the Tavern is that it has more dark and shadowy corners then it would seem possible in any normal room. it is, in fact rare to find someone sitting in a none shady part.

Seperot looked down at his mug of beer \"I don\'t know that much about them yet actually\"

\"So you\'ve really fallen head first underwater this time?\" Said Draklar \" You don\'t know much about them asides there spying on you and Pie, and yet they set a huge Yilan to do you in?\"

\"That and they have the name the watchers\" Seperot murmured still looking down at his mug \" Newpie Hopefully found out some info but i doubt the fool knows much about his employers\"

Draklar chuckled \"So what are you going to do about it?\"

Seperot looked up \"Well as far as i can see...



Seperot wondered off out of the tavern after saying his good byes to his old friend, the Black Furred beast had a plan in formation now he needed players to get the game moving. Seperot walked down the street and put his arm around a young yilan male, who by instinct thrust his elbow into Sep\'s groin had the Enki not had know this was coming and put his knee in the way.

\"Hey Sep, Was wondering why i haven\'t seen you in the last few days\" Said Nebu

\"Yes well I\'ve been busy\" Said Sep \" Any ways things are moving again and I\'m going to need...\" Seperot caught a glimmer out of the corner of his eye
\'Crap\' he thought \'There watching him too\'

\"Nebu, you\'ve been spied on for the last 2 weeks... have you noticed this at all?\"

\"What? Where? Who?\" Nebu looked around shocked

Seperot slapped nebu around the head \" Don\'t look around nitwit he will know your on to him, any ways you\'ve got one and i have other places to be, Take care of him and I\'ll be back in a day or 2 to fill you in on what i need you to do....get rid of the spy by then please?\"

Nebuduck nodded to this as seperot walked off back down the street \'I wonder who else there keeping tabs on?\'


\"So Boss, Why did yu send Gau\'thral, by himself on te Red Eyed Devil?\" A member of the barbarian group asked his boss while staring at the burning body of his fallen comrade out in the field just outside hydela

\"That man said he was scrawny and weak, I belive him, not again doh\" Said the leader wish a stony gase \" The story really do hold true, The red eyed devil must be stopped or he will eat our families.\"

\"So what we gonna do boss?\" another member questioned

\"We gonna wait a few days, then we gonna strike him all at once with all we got\" the  leader rumbled \"We need to do it fast so he dont get a chance to bite us and poison us\"

The men grunted to each other and looked deep into the fires flames.


Seperot at that time was just climbing into bed to rest after the long day. as he lay back with his eyes open he looked down to the amulet on his chest. Looking concerned Seperot taped the plain red glass on the amulet 3 times

Seperots world went black.

----------------------------------------------

enjoy :)

mmmm yes well....no words actually i just got insperation to write again...i did half of this before i got bored and half in the last while :P its a bit short cause i have to re think what i want to happen next :>

part 4
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

As Far as the eye could see there was burning red canyons fire scorched across the sky and the floor below was a endless

lake of boiling blood. The Intense heat from this place would burn the eyes right out of anyone. the land was full of the

screams and yells of pure pain and agony.

Seperot stood there floating as if in between the sky and ground, his eyes squinting as he adjusted to the area. Behind him

a swirling mass of shadowy darkness emanating the feeling of interest.

\"SO....TELL ME ENKIDUKAI....WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU PLANNING TO DO ABOUT THIS....GROUP\" Rumbled the shadows seeming making the

whole land shake

Seperot casually turned around and scratched his head \"Well...i\'m still running blind for the most part. But i am sure that

barbarian that attacked me was not alone in his actions...there will be more\"

The Shadow then emanating the feeling of annoyance \" YES...WHY DID YOU SO POORLY ACT ON THAT BATTLE....DO YOU FORGET THE

POWER I GIVE YOU...YOU COULD CRUSH THIS WHOLE CITY WITH ONE BLOW!\"

Seperot closed his eyes \"Indeed i could..but then the enemy would know too much about me and can act far more accordingly

to find a weakness. There will be more of them and to flaunt my power over a single one would given the rest an idea on

what to use.\"

The Shadow Rumbled with Anger \"BARBARIANS ARE NO MATCH FOR YOU! THIS IS YOUR EXCUSE FOR NOT FEEDING ME IN SO LONG!\" The

very fabric of the land felt as if it was going to break under the strain of the words

\"Indeed the Barbarians are no match, but I still do not know who has hired them. if they where to go back and report what i

harbor the unknown could surly find ways to beat me. Tis better to byde my time and wait for them to expose themselves to

me then crush them.\" Seperot said defiantly

The Shadow fell dormant for a few seconds before again showing anger but on a much lesser scale \" I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY

YOU DO NOT JUST KILL THEM ALL. TO ME IT MAKES NO SENSE\"


Seperot smiled \" Is that not why you chose me for the amulet? and not the fools who created it?\"

The Shadow Radiated a pleased emotion \"VERY WELL SEPEROT, BUT I DO HUNGER....\"

Seperot nodded \"indeed\"

Seperot\'s world was black once more.



Umbra Lept from rooftop to rooftop, he was hanging around the general area Seperot had ordered him to be, Seperot had

warned him against wondering because he said bad things happen. Umbra\'s overwhelming boredom took over though and he found

some people and jumped down to say hi.

\"Phail?\" The white Enki said with pride.

\"Sorry? Do..\" The Pair was 2 Ylian males just out of the bar \"ehehe hey lothars, did he just say fail?\"

Lothars staggered a bit before he managed \"heheheee, i think he did\"

Umbra felt like this was fun so continued with a full discussion \"Tah shoo, Stuff happens, or something, or anything, or

nothing\"

\"Hey! ... Hey buddy you want to start a fight?\" Said the first Ylian

Unfortunately for the men, Umbra never grasped the consept of a threat very well so took that as a direct offer and punched

the Yilian in the face. an also unfortunate note for the men was that Umbra was well trained in phisical hand to hand

combat.

\"Whash do that f...ARGH!\" Yelped Lothars as The white furred enki had grabbed his arm and broken it \"JARGA HELP ME!\"

Jarga stood up still looking dazed from the punch charged at Umbra, as he came close jarga noticed he had stopped moving,

Umbra had snapped around and took a full swing kick into the Ylians chest, Umbra then finished off the pair by throwning

Jarga into Lothars sending them both into a wall. Above Umbra heard claping

\"Bravo little brother, hardly what i would call tactful but it was certainly a fair match, you against 2 drunks..\"

Seperot\'s face changed from pleased to annoyed \"What did i tell you about wondering off?\"

\"Kill it with fire?\" Umbra replied blankly

Seperot sighs and shakes his head \"Whatever, just get up here i need you to do something for me\"
