VENTURES INTO THE REMOTE (RP)

On the way back, Arandil passed many of his fellow soldiers. Already, another two had passed away. His brother was still there, unconscious and Commander Magath had yet to return.

“Please, please, oh, please, help me,” One man cried, his hand extending towards the Lance Corporal, “I can’t feel my-“ he gulped, “My fingers. I can’t move them. Please, tell me, are they still there?”

Arandil saw the man’s fingers were still attached to his hands but the prints were burned so badly they began unrecognizable. The Gondorian’s right thumb was burnt black and bulged rather ostensibly.

"They’re getting hammered out there by some fucking God or something" Iver couldnt believe it. He started laughing as he put on his new clothes. "The Valar just waited for us to weaken your army before they come here to kick yar ass. And you said that only one of them was taken to destroy you? Wait till the others will come" He said with a grin on his face, "It was nice meeting ya all, want me to say anything in yar funeral?" He adds.
 
Arandil grabs and rips off his own cloak and puts it on his hand to stop any potential bleeding or contact with anything else that might infect it."Don't worry lad, it's going to be okay.Stay strong." Arandil then gave him some water to drink.
 
Glug, glug, glug.

“Thank, you Lance Corporal.” The man cried a bit, bowing his head in respect and grabbing the man with his burnt fingers, hugging him awkwardly for a moment.

Voices rang down the cave, “‘e need ‘elp out ‘ere! ‘e got one!”

Tytus stood up. He had enough of this cry baby’s taunts.

“At the least I’ll have a funeral-“ he looked down at Iver, “You’ll be a spec of dust in this desert. Fucking piss-wank.”

“Oi, I said we have to go, now! Chop chop!” The handsome one said and waited for Tytus to leave them. The three departed. The Armoured Shifter looked back at Iver and Ha’zi with cold eyes. He said nothing but enough was spoken in the silence. After a moment, he departed, disappearing over the hill.

One of the Maia Guards smacked Iver on the back of the head, “Dress.” He said.

"Well, great job, Iver. You made the only nice people here pissed off." Ha'zi saltily remarks, sighing. He sympathized with the shifters, they were obviously going through tough times and they, or at least Tytus and that one boy, actually seemed nice to them. And now the Dalishman screwed it up. Ha'zi internally facepalmed at Iver's actions to them. Instead of being with sorta friendly people that were like them, Iver and the boy were now stuck with these generic Maiar guards.

"If you don't mind, I'm going back in the box." Ha'zi mutters, rubbing his eyes and yawning, moving towards it.

Arandil left the bottles to a man to give to those who thirst or need it.He took one bottle to give to his brother after.He then rushed down the cave to see what was going on.
 
"Fcking idiots" Iver mumbled to himself as the shifters walked away, leaving him and Hazi with only two guards to fight. It is 2v2, they had a good chance. Iver started to put his pants on and "stumbled" on the guard next to him. While falling he tossed his shirt in the face of the second guard and shouted "Bloody Now" toward Hazi who decided that taking a nap would be the best solution. As he fall on the guard next to him he tries to take him down and bite his neck, using his hands, legs and head to take down the poor guy.
 
”Get in, then.” The other Guard, a female shoved him towards it.

“Really?” The male Guard asked and grappled with Iver, his sword falling as they fought. He overpowered Iver, pushing him back off him. Both their hands were in contact and the Maiar squashed Iver’s fingers in his grip.

Four men were outside the cave. Commander Magath, two recruits and one of the scout masters. The scoutmaster had initially been out there to tend to the horses that had survived and the recruits were to help him. But now, only one of the recruits watched the horses.

The other was pinning one man down to the ground while Magath gripped his shoulder and was yelling at him.

“How do we break down the fence?! Answer me!”
“I don’t know-I’m sorry, I can’t tell you th-“ The man was crying, his face dirty and bloodied.
The recruit grabbed a fistful of his hair and slammed his head into the rocky barren ground.
“Answer the Commander!!”
“I-I-I-I t-to-t-told y-you I-I d-d-d-don’t know!”

Magath looked up and saw Arandil, “Lance Corporal! I need you to interrogate this man. The Scoutmaster saw him climb out of the Giant that decimated our regiment. We believe he has valuable intel which shall allow us to open the fence. Come, hold him down while I round up the men. We can send the injured home now with the valley being clear of enemies. Finally, someone can alert the King.”

"Huh?" Ha'zi questioned drowsily. Oh great, Iver's doing a prison break. What a great idea. The Haradrim boy sighed. If he didn't help the Dalishman, the naked man would get beaten easily by the Maiar. But if he did, it would ruin their reputation further with the shifters here. And worse could happen if they were caught.

Whatever, he didn't want to stay here anyways. Ha'zi ran over to the female guard and threw a punch at her, joining the brawl, hopefully allowing him to make use of his training. [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Captain_Aasim/74.png" name="Captain_Aasim"]12253360[/user]
 
Seeing the glint of a blade swinging towards him, Sigeric moved his halberd to his right, intending to catch Azura's arm with the shaft of the weapon. He would then take his left hand off of the halberd, delivering a blow to the face with his armoured gauntlet.
 
Iver saw that the maia was much stronger than he was and remembering the last time he fought one Iver remembered two important points:
1. Those wankers are strong and brute force wont work against them.
2. Those wankers had soft balls
And with those two points in mind Iver executed his plan. The maia held his hand and it seems like he didnt planto let go, Iver tightned his hands as well if his fingers werent broken already and jumped in the air while folding his legs. While in air he straihghtned his legs, pointing them toward the maia's balls and used his hands to pull him toward the maia.
 
Ha’zi’s training did not involve hand to hand combat. Pity.

A mailed fist met his face first, breaking his front teeth in one savage blow. He fell to the ground, blood leaking from his gums. The female looked down at him with pity. “Seriously?”

Time seemed to slow for Iver. His feet landed on the chest plate protecting the Maia’s genitals and bounced off. He did not account for that to happen. The Maia, almost in slow motion, grabbed him and slowly raised him into the air. Iver had no idea what was happening...

His body was flying through the air, slowly...his mind absorbing and processing all this information at a speed unfathomable to him.

Azura’s Maiar-blade sliced through Sigeric’ halberd, cutting the wood in half. The blade scraped her arm and she turned to finish Sigeric off before a metallic fist smashed into her temple, knocking her on her ass.

She looked up, one eye shut, at Sigeric. Her Maiar-blade had fallen between them...

Her blue eyes met his and for a second, Sigeric found her fierceness, her strength, her...attractive?

Her foot jumped out at him.

"Sawrey Mawar wady, Ibaere lwikes dwoin dis kain oth ting." Ha'zi croaked. "Wurth uh shawt." He closed his eyes in pain and tried to focus on healing the bleeding area. [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Captain_Aasim/74.png" name="Captain_Aasim"]12253360[/user]
 
Instead of swinging around in the air, Iver ended up watching time speed up and the next thing he saw was the earth racing to meet his face.

THUD.

Iver’s broken nose fixed itself. He also was concussed and ended up with slight brain damage.

The female Maia grimaced at Ha’zi, stifling a laugh, “J-Just, heh, get back in the box.” She giggled.

The male Maia pulled Iver along and tossed his naked ass into the box.

Ha’zi was faced with entering an enclosed area with the naked Iver, who now looked like a disgruntled donkey with autism.

"Earwoo daumiet, Ibeare, gaet soam cwose awn." Ha'zi angrily sputtered to the naked Dalishman as he, with a head hung low, walked back into his box. [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/assassiniv/74.png" name="assassiniv"]14628767[/user]
 
Iver felt broken, and not only in his physical form. "Family my ass, i cant even defend a single person" he mumbled to himself. He couldnt defend Himself or Hazi. "At least someone else could save their sorry asses" he thought to himself as he remembered the talk about god kicking the maiar in the battlefield. He sighed and relaxed, there was nothing he could do to change anything, beside maybe getting more hits.
 
To be attracted to an enemy soldier on the field of battle. How strange. Yet the logical side of Sigeric's mind knew that he could afford no mercy. This Maia had likely slaughtered many of his comrades. To slip up due to physical attraction to an enemy felt completely out of character to Sigeric. Dispelling his feelings, he sidestepped the kick while drawing his rapier, dropping the pieces of the halberd. He moved forward, feinting a slash to bait Azura into moving away, before reaching for the Maiar Blade.
 
The kick was not aimed at Sigeric’s foot. Instead, she kicked the Maiar-blade away, sending it trawling through the mud. Whilst he drew his rapier she moved back, attempting to stand but slipping in the mud.

Zaro lay dazed on the ground, next to Sigeric.

In the distance, above Tulkas’ laughter and the clash of swords, there was faint-

DUSH.

They remained in the crate for quite a while. Naked Iver and broken Ha’zi. Ha’zi’s teeth regrew. It was a painful process including much blood, curses, stiffled screams and crying.

Iver’s mind healed at the same time.

There was some commotion from outside the barrel, someone talking. They couldn’t hear the person clearly but picked up some words.

-“okay, I can do that but won’t it lower our chances of success?”
“We have no other choice. Morgoth is unwilling to take to the field. He cast us, his personal guard, out of the fortress to aid the fight. We need as much damage to be done to Tulkas and the other Maia. There’s a few Giants on the field but ours will surely take care of them. We need him-“

The voices drowned out.

When Arandil heard that there was a chance for the wounded to survive, for his brother to live, he grabbed the man and punched him.
He yelled "Bastard, you were enjoying destroying our soldiers and crushing our horses. Now speak, do you want to actually be tortured? We have all the time of the world, and I won't hesitate. I won't harm you if you tell us how to get out of this damned fence. So what do you say?".
