[color:"00cccc"] I sighed, "Fair enough woman... Lets get through these traps. I'm not letting that manticore out though, its bloody evil! Probably insane too by the look in its eyes!"
"You'd better not turn your back on me bitch!" I added as a barely audible whisper.
Willow and Jolie appeared. There was much greeting and story-telling. Jolie passed me a manual full of technical layouts. Intricate machines from torture devices to bombs to an orange-juice maker.
"Interesting...." I mumbled, fascinated by each page.
"Well? What are you waiting for? Go, stumpy!" Kiya replied.
"ONE MORE INSULT!" I yelled. Kiya fell silent.
"Oh by the way. I found the nugget of the dwarves. Well, Jurak found it actually." I tossed it to Jurak. "Guard it for me my friend, especially from her!" Jurak nodded.
The corridoor ahead of me was very clear, too clear. I brushed aside a spiderweb and heard a pffft! sound. It was very quiet too. "What the hell was that?" I thought. Then I saw something insane...
[color:"yellow"] Goblin arrows flying around me.....dwarven men and women massacred....corpses piled high and there was nothing I could do, nothing! Suddenly there was a noise beind me....goblin cackling.....evil laughter....I....NOOOOOOOO! [/color]
"Get a grip on yourself lad!" I scowled as the illusion cleared. "Evil magic.....but maybe not." I felt my neck. There was a tiny dart sticking out of it! I pulled it free. "Hmmm" I said and looked closely at the walls. They were not as smooth as I'd originally thought. There was a tiny hole near to where the supposed spiderweb met the wall. "Lets see what's in here...." I smashed the surface wall with my axe, revealing a blowpipe and several pistons. There was a big rack of darts on one end of the blowpipe, spring-loaded to move the next piece of ammunition into the pipe, each tipped with a powerful hallucinogenic drug. "Ingenious machine!" I thought. Then I dismantled it and took it with me. The ammo-loader would certainly be useful on my boomstick.
There was a door to the right a little furter on. The remains of a corpse lay there. It wasn't DQ or Viper thank gods, it had been there a while. A book lay underneath the body. "Lets take this back and see what the group can make of it." I thought.
The manual was fairly old. The title was covered in dirt.
I got back to the group.
"Still alive I see...." Said Kiya with folded arms.
"Of course, wouldn't want to dissapoint you would I." I flashed Kiya my sickest grin.
"Anyone know what this is? I found it on some body out there." [/color]
