VENTURES INTO THE REMOTE (RP)

'Well that's pretty nifty', he thought fleetingly before the ecstasy of power set in. He roared, and took a hundred-foot-long stride in the direction of the Destroyer and his wee little companions. Then another, then another, and suddenly he was there.
"BUGGER OFF", he boomed, trying to brush away the giants that had piled up on top of Ha'zi and feeling a sting on his back where the bolts had hit him, akin to a horsefly's bite.
 
As Mirecyla ripped the Haradrim youth out of the Warrior’s nape she felt the sting of steel. The next moments were fuzzy as a voice interrupted her fun.

“Apologies to cut your entertainment short, but you’re not taking him.” Glorfindel said, calmly as he pulled Mirecyla out of the Executioner, slicing her hands off in the process. He gripped her firmly and saw she was...

A girl? A young girl? It didn’t matter. She was a murderer like the rest of them. To defeat monsters like her he needed to become a monster.

“Where’s your Master, you little shit?” The elf shoved his sword into her mouth.

Where the hell did he come from? Who was he? How did-? The questions flashed through Mirecyla as a blade was shoved into her mouth, breaking her front teeth.

Ha’zi saw he was in the hand of the Executioner Giant but the Executioner...was limp...he heard Glorfindel’s shouts and saw the elf there, on the back of the Executioner, questioning someone. He was able to move and see.

————

The Ten Giants that had been ripping apart Ha’zi jumped at the sight of the Behemoth and nearly fled when the Destroyer’s voice shouted back.

”KILL HIM!”

The Ten, with some reluctance initially, charged Daugo’s legs, swarming them.

More ballista bolts hit the Behemoth’s back, doing nothing to stop him.

Loud roars sounded from behind him and if Daugo turned his head to see, he would notice half a dozen drakes and dragons flying towards him.

——-

”Mairon’s deployed the aerial defenses. I doubt they’ll be enough to kill that thing. Didn’t they say there was one Giant that could fight it?” Uasset asked.

“Yes. The Leviathan. Though, from what I saw...the shifter is a pathetic runt. He can’t fight for anything. And screams like a whiny bitch.” Azura answered him.

“Pyrus, this isn’t working.” Saenes pointed at the ballista which were failing.

———

The Armoured Giant’s hand swung around to hit Dimitri but missed. The Dwarf nimbly smashed his other knee with another strike. The Armoured fell and smashed into the ground, hands flailing, roaring madly.

”RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!”

His voice traveled through the valley of Udun and out to the plains of Gorgoroth.

——-

”The Armoured needs help. Equas should be able to neutralize the Behemoth but just in case...”

Osman spoke to Tytus, the Screamer, upon hearing the noise and picked up a wooden barrel which lay next to a pile of rocks he’d carried over. The barrel had tiny holes drilled into it and he couldn’t help but laugh.

”Time to make yourself useful, Joplin. Try not to cry this time!”

He yelled at the barrel and readied to toss it, aiming just past the Behemoth.

"Ya skword ian mwah mowuath" She would try to say, visibly pissed. How the hell? Damnit! She was careless, master would be so mad, no, she had to make this up to him. She'd kill this bastard, even if it meant she'd kill herself as well!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Give me time" He spat out, ignoring their other comments as he focuses on doing three things at once. Using the ballista that haven't stuck in him he would send them up flying to his eyes, meanwhile the others would start to burrow into the Behemoths skin, going up.
 
The Behemoth kicked at the giants nibbling at his legs, his body aflame, and turned around to see the dragons and drakes coming his way. They looked as terrifying as a murder of crows flying in his direction, and he moved his vast arms to be ready to swat them if they came too close.
 
Ha'zi groaned and rubbed his head, questions flooding in. Where is he? Why is Glorfindel talking nasty to some little girl? Why does he have a sword in her mouth? Wait, why am I in a hand? Is this a body? As his thoughts continued to pour in, so did his memories. Miriel, the rage and power he'd felt when he mimiced her abilities, Osman, the ten giants, Glorfindel, and that disgusting creature that picked him up.

Oh.. oh Eru, what had he done? Ha'zi knew he shouldn't feel this way.. but he felt sorry for his brutal actions against Miriel. It must have been horrifying for her... getting hit by the same things that obliterated Lesier. A deep sorrow resonated in his chest, and despite his best efforts, he cared.
Where was she? Was she even alive right now? What happened to it when the giants rushed in?

Ignoring the events around him, Ha'zi moved off the corpse of the Executioner and looked around for the Savage Giant's remaining body.
 
”Aggghhhhhh!” Berethor was still screaming as Dimitri ripped him out of the nape. The Forochelrim recognized the Gondorian boy from before, the nice one, the one with the burn marks on his face.

Before he could react, Dimitri felt something hit his back and he began to feel extreme pain, the Dwarf’s backside dissolving in acidic vomit.

————

Three Giants went flyin, burning, from the Behemoth’s kick. More took their place. Something was happening down there...the Giants were....replicating? One Giant split in half and two smaller ones jumped on the Behemoth’s foot, clawing through the flames and biting at his Achilles’ tendon. One snagged off a piece and Daugo felt himself shake.

The swarm of drakes came by, flying in formation. Daugo swatted two out of the air with his flaming fist, knocking them out of the sky. They landed with massive THUDS, crushing half of Zaro’s remaining Cohort.

“This is no place for us, retreat!” Harros called, willing the survivors back to Celeborn.

Another drake unleashed a hailstorm of flames, angled towards Daugo’s head whilst a smaller one flew by his eyes, attempting to slash them and blind him.

The ballista bolts sunk into his skin and began winding through the Behemoth’s body, Daugo could feel them heading for the nape.

Glorfindel shoved the sword deeper into her mouth, breaking through her nose, “Speak more clearly, rat. You killed my kinsmen. Now, where is Morgoth?”

Ha’zi could see the Savage Giant’s corpse dissipating and someone else was standing on its neck. A figure dressed in black with light brown hair. He couldn’t see his face but saw him carrying a body out, Miriel’s body. The smoke cloaked her face but her arm was missing and she was unconscious, her mouth hanging open, head craned lifelessly.

———-

”HERE!”

The Destroyer shouted, throwing the barrel through the air. It flung past Daugo and over all their heads in a wide arc.
 
Ha'zi's eyes widened, equally surprised by Miriel and the dark figure. Was she dead? What was this person doing with her? Who was he? Where was he taking her? What should Ha'zi do?

He looked back over to Glorfindel over his shoulder, still apparently arguing with that girl. Should he try and ask him for help? Or would it be too late, and they escape? Ha'zi was about to run down, but dismissed the thought. He should play it safe. Quietly and carefully, the boy walked back over to the elf and told him of what he saw, implying they needed to hurry if they chose to act upon it. [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Captain_Aasim/74.png" name="Captain_Aasim"]12253360[/user]
 
Mirecyla would slowly start to bring her head back so she could speak, if the elf would let her she would pretend as if the sword made her gag and start to choke herself, activating her gag reflexes and throwing up on his feet crying. If he didn't allow that and she had the reach she would go to kick him in his junk, and if that didn't work she would say "Cah yawh nat?"
 
Glorfindel kicked the girl’s legs after she struggled, pulled back the sword and sliced one of her legs off, “To my understanding, you can’t transform whilst your body is in this condition. Isn’t that right?” He asked. Ha’zi came over and he saw the boy, “Come, let’s leave this land and get back to Gondor. Take my hand, boy.” He urged Ha’zi.

[user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/9842Kye/74.png" name="9842Kye"]16315828[/user] [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/DeathValley105/74.png" name="DeathValley105"]15756962[/user]
 
"What?" He asked, a mix of surprise, confusion, and anger in his voice at the idea. "Glorfindel, there's still a lot of obstacles right now. Drakes, other giants, that weird fence contraption. Plus, we can't let them get away. We have to finish this, man. Get a hold of yourself." Ha'zi argued. [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Captain_Aasim/74.png" name="Captain_Aasim"]12253360[/user]
 
Glorfindel ignored Mirecyla and turned to the Haradrim, his sword pinned to the girl’s chest.

“We sacrificed enough souls to rescue you. The hobbit is literally fighting dragons up there, so that the Enemy is distracted. We can’t finish anything without the proper equipment. We vastly underestimated our enemies. The mission is over. We found Morgoth’s lair. We have undeniable proof. I’ll be taking back this little shit,” he kicked Mirecyla violently, “As a testament to Morgoth’s existence here. And we’ll come back with the full force of the Free Peoples. Use your head, boy. Don’t be stubborn,” The elf lectured him.

[user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/9842Kye/74.png" name="9842Kye"]16315828[/user]
 
Accepting this, Ha'zi nodded, sighing. "Very well. What should we do about them then? Nothing?" He says, turning back to gaze down at what happened to Miriel.  [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Captain_Aasim/74.png" name="Captain_Aasim"]12253360[/user]
 
Miriel and whoever had been carrying her were gone. Nowhere to be seen. The Warrior, Savage and Executioner Giants’ bodies began to steam, melting away.

“About whom?” Glorfindel asked, “There’s only this one.” He moved to pick up the girl before there was a change in wind.

Swish.

Ha’zi saw the same dark figure from before. He was looking directly at the Haradrim boy and Glorfindel. It took him a moment to realize it but the identity of the figure became clear. Eonwë!

He unsheathed a short sword and swiftly lunged at Glorfindel!

Mirecyla saw her Master appear. He had come to save her!

[user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/9842Kye/74.png" name="9842Kye"]16315828[/user] [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/DeathValley105/74.png" name="DeathValley105"]15756962[/user]
 
What? Ëonwë? Why was he here? How was he here? How did he escape from those Maiar that took him? Why did he take Miriel? Why is he attacking us? Ha'zi rapidly thought. "Hey, Ëonwë, stop! It's me, Ha'zi!" The boy shouted at the dark figure as he lunged towards them.
---------------
She would laugh and spit at her tormenter, this was nothing. "How do you plan to escape exactly tough guy? You can't pass the fence and you still haven't dealt with the Maia. You'll all die here." She would snarl, but then he appeared, her beloved master! Deciding to help him she would go and try to kick the boys legs out from under him so he wouldn't transform.
 
Just as the dwarf began to feel extreme pain on his back, the two drakes smashed down upon them, the serpent, the dwarf and the armoured at the bottom. [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Captain_Aasim/74.png" name="Captain_Aasim"]12253360[/user]
 
The Serpent Giant leaped through the air and gulped down Berethor, straight out of Dimitri’s hands just as the Drakes collided with the Armoured Giant’s decaying corpse.

The Dwarf was crushed beneath the Armoured’s body, which was subsequently crushed beneath the great Jade Drake which the Red Drake smashed into creating a pile of gargantuan bodies. Dimitri couldn’t move with the bodies pressed down on him.

Out of the air a barrel whizzed, arcing over the fence and hurtling towards Cardiloc but his attention was focused on the Serpent who had slithered out of the pile, its mouth holding the human body of the Armoured Giant, a young man with light blonde military-cut hair and facial scars.

Ha’zi tripped as Mirecyla, the little girl, kicked his leg out with her only viable leg.

“It’s been a long time,” Glorfindel muttered, swinging his sword at Sauron.

”So, it has.” His blade reverberated and bounced back before lunging at the elf’s neck

[user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/9842Kye/74.png" name="9842Kye"]16315828[/user] [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/DeathValley105/74.png" name="DeathValley105"]15756962[/user]
 
Card's right eye saw the serpent, who had just escaped from the pile. He saw there was a young man, but he didn't care, burn them all he thought as the dragon fumed. Unleashing a torrent of flame upon the giant.
 
"Wha- Ah!" Ha'zi called out as he tripped, faceplanting into the sharp, hard ground that made up Mordor. Damn it. He groaned and got back up, anger in his eyes for the girl, but was soon distracted by the sight of Ëonwë fighting with Glorfindel. What was happening? What could he do? Should he intervene?

As Ha'zi was pondering this, he remembered that he could do something. The flares
. Of course! Quickly, the boy loaded and, with some difficulty, shot a red flare into the sky. Ha'zi unloaded the gun, then decided to reload it, this time with a yellow flare. He backed up away from the brawl and waited to see what would happen, waiting for a perfect moment.  [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Captain_Aasim/74.png" name="Captain_Aasim"]12253360[/user]
 
The Serpent unfolded wings and began to fly, leaping through the air, escaping the dragon flame.

“Inbound object! Move!” Captain Amandil exclaimed, “Get back!”

Cardiloc heard the shouts of the Gondorians and saw the barrel falling towards him, it fell short, slamming into the lines of horsemen. For a second the world stopped.

Time literally slowed.

Cardiloc saw it all through the eyes of the Hybrid Giant, yet he was unable to move inside the Giant form. His eyes could just watch as the barrel moved through the air at the speed of a slug, smashing into the ground. The horses around it backed up in fright of the smash. He could hear their neighs in slow motion as the barrel broke up into tiny fragments of wood and splintered off in every direction. Inside the broken crate, Cardiloc saw a man fall out, broken and bloodied by the impact, his eyes were filled with tears as light filled his body and charged outwards, claiming the remnants of the barrel, racing towards the horses and spilling out in every direction. A great burning flame claiming everything in its way and racing towards Cardiloc. It engulfed the horses, the men, turning their bodies to dust, melting away the bones.

It was horrific. Scarring. One of the worst sights Cardiloc ever bear witness and quickly time began to speed up, the flames racing towards Dimitri who was trapped beneath the Armoured Giant and him.

Glorfindel blocked the blow but Sauron countered, slashing at the elf’s wrist with inhumane speed. Glorfindel twisted and brought his sword down on Sauron’s, sending the blade flying. The Maia pivoted on one foot and kicked Glorfindel in the face with a swing, pushing him off the decaying body of the Executioner.

”As per usual, I win elf.” He turned and gave a sly wink to Ha’zi who lay next to Glorfindel, ”Stand up, Ha’zi. Take my hand. These elves want to use you. Come with me. I can protect people like you and your friends.” A smile crossed the Maia’s features, spreading widely into a grin. He picked up Mirecyla, gently and turned to Ha’zi, offering his hand.
