Serinous walked out of the bushes, right on the road to the city. "Time to party!" He muttered, there was over fifty guards just at the gate! And likely there will be more on the otherside...He walked toward the gate...'It's now or never,' he thought to himself....

Arran took place at the ridge. Arran chose to use his long range 100lb. bow (he always carried two) he then drew an arrow and pressed it to the bow string. He licked his finger and held it in the wind, he then began muttering to himself calculating the wind, distance, and power of his bow, so that he might make his shots accurate. Arran pulled back his bow string with the arrow in place to fire.
"Here we go." He said to himself.

Aegis sneaked from behind one tree to next outside the fence. He found the side gate, it was guarded by two rather large men, and a watch tower had its sight on the spot. Aegis spotted another man walking towards his general vacinity. He waved his hand commanding everyone to get down. As soon as the man walked into Aegis arm length, he wrapped his arm around the mans neck, and taking the other hand and slamming his neck into his arm, breaking the fools neck. "Some guard he was." Aegis whispered to Zephyr. He then made a motion to Boomer meaning something like : get behind tht tree on the other side and take sniping position. All they had to do know was wait for thier little "distraction" to come into play.

(sorry haven't been on for a while)
The first rock that left Serinous' hand hit the gate, splintering the top half and dispatching 3 soldiers in the process. The second rock hit the upper wall, elimantaing any threat from the archers on the wall. Now he was close enough to start with the melee, he ripped a tree out of the ground and swung it around like a bat, taking out a dozen mercs in the process...

The mercenaraies that were wathcing over the gate that the stealthy party was trying ot enter suddenly left, rushing towards a lot of ruckus coming from the other side. Aegis made a motion to the party. Aegis, Boomer, and sabe all entered the gate and hid behind a building. And waited for zephyr.

The elf scaled a wall, fingers finding grips that could hardly be used in the masoned stone. He pressed his body against the wall, climbing with his knees up the stone surface. The others were sneaking in through a gate that was carelessly left open as guards abandoned their posts.. typical... He finished scaling the wall, now sitting atop it. Gauging the distance, Zephyr lept from the wall to a nearby rooftop, lowering his center of gravity immediatly as his feet landed on the building, making the noise almost silent. He took a pebble wedged in his boot and dropped it atop Aegis' head to get his attention without making noise.

The pebble landed square on his head. Aegis rubbed his bruise while he looked up, giving Zephyr a thumbs up. Aegis then pointed to a nearby guard tower, Boomer immedietly understood. He turned to te side of the building, aimed his arrow, and released it. It flew for a long while, then entered the guards shoulder. Which clearly had stunned him, because he fell off the tower and onto the hard ground below, breaking his own neck. Aegis made another motion to Boomer, and he immedietly ran to the tower scaling it rather quickly. Not as fast as an elf, but it was mighty fast.

Meanwhile Serinous was dealing with every other guard stationed near the front gate. He grabbed two of the guards by their legs and threw them against what remained of the front gate, collapsing the rest of it. 'Time to introduce myself' he thought.....

Aegis noticed a group of soldiers patrolling the area Boomer was in. Aegis unleashed an arrow into one of the soldiers neck, causing him to bleed uncontrollably and to eventually die. While Saber jumped and likewise latched himself to the neck of the remaining man. The two deaths were quick and silent. Boomer had to be more careful.

Zephyr, preferring to avoid unnecessary deaths, lept from a roof into a nearby window, diving headfirst through and tumbling to avoid impact, and reduce noise. Looking around, the room seemed clear... After checking absent-mindedly for traps, he listened at the door. The lithe elf took something from his pack. Oil.. He greased the hinges, just in case, and opened the door just a crack, spying through. Passing intot he room, he noted a staircase leading down to the first story. He peered down to see two men raiding through the family's belongings. Frowning, he snuck down the stairs, removing a small satchel filled with iron shavings to make it heavy and fluid. Before the other man knew what happened, his buddy fell to the floor, out cold. Zephyr kicked the man in the stomach, causing him to double over, then clonked him over the head with the blackjack.
Having efficiently dealt with them, he looked through their pockets, removing weapons, stolen goods, rum, etc. He smirked and tied them up back to back in a corner, blocking their path with a large dresser.
One of the bags the guard had left contained a letter from someone important, a broken wax seal proved that much to Zephyr.

Aegis watched Zephyr leap through the window, and was rather impressed by his agility. They likewise found a building to enter, but he felt rather uncomfortable about leaving Boomer alone and undefended, so he ordered Saber to stay behind. Aegis then slowly creep his way to a first story window of a brick building. He scanned the room for any sign of hostile activity, clear. He leapt inside and stepped on a loose board. A small "creak" could be heard followed by, "Hey! What was that?" Aegis loathed close combat, but it looked like he had little choice. He unsheathed his sword.

The mercs were bringing out the heavy weapons now, Axes and longswords...he'll have to deal with them before he could go any further, Serinous looked around himself and found some good sized shards from the gate. he picked one up and threw it spearlike, into the first 3 mercenaries that came into view...Penetrating their chest and pinning them against the wall, about 2-dozen soldiers gave up and started running deeper into the city. serinous grabbed a boulder and launched it over a house and right on top of the soldiers in front...'that will take care of the retreat!' he thought.

Arran started to release arrows upon the mercs in the town, hitting them mainly in the neck/chest area, hoping to pierce the main artery. If Arran saw any mercs that appeared to be giving orders, he immediately took them out of the picture with his arrows.
Despite distance, Arran had not missed a single shot. Although he didn't care to keep score, he knew that he had at least 8 kills so far...
Arran watched Aegis jump into the window of a building, and then draw his sword in alarm. Arran looked at the base of the building and saw 3 men at the bottom floor. Arran aimed an arrow at one of the men and then realized that it was a brick building. Arran wouldn't be able to shoot an arrow through the wall. He then noted a window not too far from where the men where standing, and they happened to be moving in view of the window to investigate upstairs ... Arran watched their rate of movement, chose a target and knocked an arrow. Arran held his breath for a moment, hoping to have good reasults.... The merc then moved by the window, came within view, and then all of the sudden the arrow broke straight through the glass hitting the man square in the chest.
Arran then released his breath to the relief of his success. "Well that went better then expected..." He said to himself as he drew another arrow.

"ACK!" Aegis yelled as the arrow came within two feet of him but instead hit one of his enemys. Regaining his nerve, he charged towards his enemy's.

A man looked out a window... He looked and saw smoke... He looked and saw his hired hands flying through the air... He knew that he had come for him but, what he also knew was that the beast that had come to kill him. Didn't have the slightest idea of why he had come... That was to the mans advantage. "Sir, your Horse is waiting." the mans servant announced, "thank you." the man said, "you may go." He looked out the window for the last time... He also pondered the thought of meeting this beast, 'no' he thought to himself. 'I would surely be killed,' he turned and walked toward the door. Never to reside here again...
