"You bloody idiots..." Sigeric whispered, as the salvo of bolts and arrows flew from the other slaver ship.
"HOLD!" He shouted, as the giant bent towards the mountain. As it picked up the massive chunk of rock, Sigeric realized what was about to happen.
"Get down! Form up on the beach! And bring down the scorpion!" He made sure that even Yuri, in the crow's nest, could hear him.
The creature was most likely aiming towards the other ship, but there was always the danger of collateral damage.

"Arghhhhh..." The dunlending screamed out in pain as the ale was poured over his wound. "I told you not to do this!" He gritted his teeth, before letting out another loud yelp of pain. He was swiftly gagged, He gave muffled screams after that and clutched at the freshly bandaged wound, he attempted to use the spear as a stilt but fell over instantly. It seemed he would need to be carried.[highlight=#d113ee][/highlight]
''Sigeric, we don't have a crane to lower it down! And besides, it's better up here and not in your crazy monster hunting hands!'' Deslan cried back. He looked at his haradrim gang. He knew that at least two had beheld the might of wereworms and wyrms in the south, so they would be best at the scorpio: firm hands and all that. The scorpio was wound up and a bolt was kept at hand if worse comes to worst. The archers crouched behind the ship's railing, ready for Deslan's order to strike. ''It's not like I'm trying to shoot a weredragon's eye'' thought Deslan as he double checked the scorpio's workings.
Ha'zi sees that the man looked eastern or at least similar to an Easterling. He wore clothes which seemed to be for the poor, simple and plain, that were tattered, muddy and bloodied. The ground around his neck was wet with dried blood. Next to him was the knife he had wielded. It appeared it had been used to slit his throat. Did Ha'zi do this? Did he kill the man that appeared out of the body of the giant? Or was it something else? Did the man do this? He then saw that the man had a tattoo of sorts, something black and specific, engraved on his chest. Two blades crossed over each other. Then he heard the ground rumble. Then a loud WHOOP. What was that? [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/9842Kye/74.png" name="9842Kye"]16315828[/user]

They all heard it. Some even saw it. The giant's arm lobbed backward, contracted, then sent the boulder flying forward at unparalleled speed.
The slaver ship ahead of them exploded into thousands of tiny wooden pieces. The boulder had shattered through the hull, sending wreckage, bodies and other things flying. That seaworthy ship was no more than a little piece of rubble now.
Sigeric and the others could see everything, even Elodrin and Dean who were walking towards it. Body parts and blood rained down on the slaver camp in the distance. Some of the slaves like Celeste started to scream and run towards the forest where Grimnir was heading. Yuri and some of the archers began dismounting from their positions, rushing towards the netting to get the hell off the ship.
The entire slaver camp was in disarray. Some people ran into the forest whilst others stood around clueless.
Dimitri and Thoruk felt the force of the destruction as a loud SMACK followed by screams, shouts and cries alerted them to what had happened. Some wood fell from the sky and landed on the tent they were just in. An arm hit Dimitri's own metal arm, leaving a stain of blood on it before sliding off onto the sandy beach. They could see the giant.
It reared its head looking down at them before a small smile broke out on its lips before it opened its mouth and spoke, loudly in a language that resembled Westron, Adunaic,
"I didn't think you'd provoke me first. But, I was going to do this anyway."
It sighed, then broke off another piece of the mountain and prepared to throw again.

"shut up!!" Iver shouted at those at the camp. "Everyone grab something and fast walk into the forest in ordered line. Anyone panicing will be left to die by whatever lurks in this forest. Now grab some supply and follow me" He said after picking up the dunlending and walked calmly into the forest.

Elodrin would recoil in shock as the ship was blown to bits by the Boulder. Turning around he would cup his hands and yell with all of the authority he could muster "Run!" Before he would start to sprint to where the giant was also yelling at it to stop. "Wait wait! Let's talk for a bit!"
''...never mind that. Use the rowboat to pull the scorpio down, the arsehole wants the ships.'' Deslan doubted a giant was against slavery: rather, it didn't want its prey to escape. The Haradrim and those few archers on the deck carried the scorpio and the bolts on the rowboat, then roped it down to beach level.
In the chaos of the massacre, Dimitri runs towards the captain, shouting, "Run for your fucking life!" But before he ran, he brings his warhammer down on the captain's head, hopefully taking advantage of the general disruption and fear caused by the giant's attack, then runs to pick up a barrel and flee to the forest.
Ha'zi found his orginal path and rushed back towards the beach, using his skills in forest trekking he had learnt in Far Harad. [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/9842Kye/74.png" name="9842Kye"]16315828[/user]

The giant cracked the boulder in his hands, letting the rock break into smaller pieces before lurching backward to launch.
"Elodrin, stop!" Dean tackled his friend into he sand, "We have to get away. That thing doesn't want to talk. It wants to kill us. Don't abandon reason for madness. You can't save them. We have to get back to the others and get them away from it." The Gondorian said, a sad tone in his voice as he watched the giant ready to fire again.
No one listened to Iver. Radaa pushed past him, "Shush it, little man." And grabbed Cardiloc, carrying him towards the jungle, sending sand up with every footfall.

Dimitri turned to find Kel had run off in the jungle, followed by some of her lackeys. She had abandoned them. Her own crew and the slaves. It was just him and Thoruk as well as some others standing around, panicking.

"Dean I'm trying to distract it. Go to the others and tell them to go south along the beach. I'll meet you there. That's my oath." He would say determinedly as he tried to get out of Deans grasp.
"Well that was rood and uncalled for" Iver said and looked around, what did the running assholes took while running into the jungle?
In all the chaos occuring, Thoruk realises now is there chance to either fall back, or get stomped by giant mountain-pieces. As he sees his mate, taking a barrel and running towards the forest, Thoruk picks up his axe and follows him immediatly. Allmost out of breath, not because of the giant, more likely because dwarfs aren't the best sprinters, he shouts towards Dimitri "The hell... should we do now... lad. I'm not.... realy interested... in getting smashed by that thing, ya know?"
The haradrim group carried the rowboat with the scorpio to the edge of the woods. They took a break to rest, waiting for orders or for the situation to develop. Deslan was holding one of Dimitri's arms, the one bearing a compound slingshot.
It should be noted that all members of Deslan's gang had their ''emergency inventory'' (backpack of tools and meals) on their backs.

"No, Elodrin. I'm not going to let you die in vain. The others need their leader. They need you. And we're going to get back home, back to Gondor, together. Even if I have to do this, that is my oath." Dean said, raising his fist and punching Elodrin across the temple. The older man was knocked unconscious by the blow and dragged back towards the others by Dean. How this would tamper with their relationship was yet to be discovered, though, it was certain Elodrin would not die under Dean's watch.
The archers followed Sigeric as he led them towards the jungle. Some of the slaves like Marco were helping along the injured like Sam and Lesier who were straggling. Others were gathering the barrels and rolling them up the beach towards the rainforest. They needed help. Desperately.
The giant's arm hurtled forward, sending hundreds of rocks flying in the direction of the first slaver camp. The rocks split through tents; crashed into barrels of supply; smashed into slaves and slavers alike turning their bodies into pulps of blood and mush; flew through the wreckage of the ship and decimated the camp in a matter of seconds. A piece of debris smacked into Dimitri, breaking on his metal arm leaving a dent, then scraping his shoulder and knocking him to the ground. Blood spilled from the tear on his shoulder and left him in pain, though, he had experienced worse. Thoruk saw a slave running away from him, still thinking that the dwarf was in alignment with the slavers, get split in half by a rock. The fellow stumbled a bit, his lower body still running, before collapsing into the sand, convulsing with spasms.
"Oh you poor things. Let me save you from existence. Don't try to run. "
The giant said, grabbing another handful of rocks and aiming at the running slaves.
