VENTURES INTO THE REMOTE (RP)

Once Sam was over Elodrin would follow suit, putting one foot on the lower part of the fence he would hold onto the top part with one hand and sling himself over. Once across he would motion for Ha'zi to hurry over but still remain quiet.
 
Upon hearing Margoz's question, Daugo shudders back into consciousness, having drifted off with his eyes open. The heat was unnatural, in his opinion, and weariness, shock, hunger and thirst did nothing to abate the drowsiness upon him. He smiles ruefully at Margoz.
"I haven't had pipeweed for three months, mate. That is a very interesting notion, though... Let us hope we don't spend enough time in this cursed island to know which herbs here can be smoked, eh?"
 
"For sure," he smiled. He looks down again with deep sadness in his eyes afterwords.
 
The fence blocked Ha'zi from joining Elodrin and Sam on the porch of the cabin. Sam remained as quiet as a ghost as he motioned for the boy to climb the fence.

----------

A strange noise rung through the sea breeze as Thoruk waited for Iver to carry the cart with Marco. It came from the sea and sounded like a dying animal. The cry was distorted by the wind but there was a chilling primeval aspect about it. Something had just made that noise. Something in the sea....

------------

The camp was mostly asleep now. Yuri and a few others remained awake to patrol the area and keep guard. It was nearly noontime and the heat was intense. Yet, the trees provided them safety from the sun and the moist humid environment both cooled and heated them. After all they had endured from their escape on the slave ship to the attack of the giant they deserved a little rest. And now was that time. Even hard-ass Grimnir was asleep, snoring under a leaf whilst a little insect nested in his fluffy white beard.

((Everyone at the camp is asleep. Including Deslan, Grimnir, Daugo and Margoz. You'll be activated within 16 hours. Sweet dreams.))
 
Ha'zi knows he isn't that great of a climber. He also belives if he climbs up, there will probably be a lot of noise. So, he is going to quietly move along the fence to see if there is an opening.
 
"I heard something. Perhaps a cough?" Sigeric whispered to Dean. He weighed his options. He could either wait for Elodrin and Sam to enter the cabin in the front, or he could take the initiative himself. Of course he would take the initiative himself. He wasn't going to stand idly by while others made all of the decisions. He slowly reached for the doorknob and tested it, cracking open the door slightly if it wasn't locked.
 
Ha'zi found the gate a few feet from where Elodrin and Sam had climbed over. It appeared unlocked but he would have to move it to let himself in.

The door slid open easily in Sigeric's hands. Inside he could see a wide room that filled the entire space and the front door 20 feet from his place at the back door. There was a large fur spread across the floor, something resembling a huge black bear's, which covered a sizeable portion of the wooden base. Ahead of him he could make out a table which held an assortment of items. Some brown bowls, a plate made up of wood, some ceramic tools, cutlery he could barely recognize, and other apparel similar to that of a kitchens.

Next to it was what looked like a basin and can, then opposite the apparent kitchen was a bed. He could make out something in it, covered by a blanket of fur. It was breathing and every so often coughed softly. Next to the bed was a smaller table holding an unlit candle and what looked like a large sharp tooth. A couple of wardrobes and other furniture littered the open area.

Behind him Dean tapped his shoulder, peering in, remaining silent. Would Sigeric enter?
 
The gate slid open and allowed Ha'zi to enter the porch. Ahead of him he saw Elodrin and Sam charge in, swords drawn.

Before Sigeric can react, Elodrin and Sam enter from the front, the door creaking open as the men rush in, blades drawn.

The sleeping figure suddenly juts upwards in bed, the furs falling off as Sigeric and Dean see the person. A woman with blonde hair and wild blue eyes gets up. She was wrapped in the furs and parts of her exposed body were covered by small wear, her body covered over by a simple gown. Her eyes met Sigeric's and for a split milisecond there was a sort of calm to her wildness. Then she turned to the creaking door and saw the armed Elodrin.

Her hand lashed out as she grabbed the tooth next to her and rushed out of bed in a flurry, tossing the furs to the ground as she charged Elodrin. The knife-tooth raised to strike him as she screamed a battle cry.

Sigeric and Dean was too far to stop what was about to occur.

Elodrin upon seeing the woman rush at him would use the reach of his weapon to his advantage. Taking two steps forward he would send the Longsword forward aiming for his shoulder connected to the arm that held the dagger.
 
The blade came flying down as the woman rushed him, carving through her arm, sending the limb to the floor in a flurry of blood. She staggered for a moment, awestruck by his assault, then fell back before crumpling to the ground as her arm spasmed, still clutching onto the tooth-knife. Her body hit the wooden floor with a thud as her blood coated the rug. She was still breathing and something strange occurred as she stared back at Elodrin, a small smile spread across her lips and she laughed.

A second later Elodrin, Sam, Dean and Sigeric watched as her arm began to steam, her body spasmed and a bright white light emerged from her. Within moments they were all thrown back, sent flying by the force of the light.

Elodrin, Sam and even Ha'zi were sent flying back out across the fence and into the river whilst Dean and Sigeric were blown back into the stream. Both groups could see each other and witnessed the house they had been in crumble and explode with a burning flame. Emerging from the wreckage was a great black bear. Nearly 10 feet in height and 20 in length as it stood on its hind legs staring back at them with bright blue, wild eyes.

One second, Ha'zi was getting ready to head towards Sam and into the house. Now, he's being sent into the river. Ha'zi does a quick prayer and braces for impact.
 
"Sigeric I don't know about you but if you could possibly throw your halberd into it's heart while I distract it that will be great. Dean Sam, feel free to help or run away, Ha'zi stay clear." Elodrin would say standing up.
 
"What in Durins..." Thoruk mumbles as he notices the sound from the seaside "whatever that was.." he says towards Marco and Iver who had also widnessed this noise "..I don't want to stay here and find out what in Durins name made that sound." He nods towards Iver and Marco while taking the crossbow from his back into his hand and loads a bolt. "Let's hurry lads."
 
Grimnir Wakes up from a loud noise and immediately has his Axe ready to kill someone, before realising he is in the cabin. He Goes to Yuri and tells Him if he aswell could hear the noise. "Did you hear that?" He whispers as he looks Around not engaging Eye contact with Yuri, as he looks into the Woods with big Eyes and Axe at the ready.. "I suggest you come with me. Leave the others here to guard." He says as he readies his crossbows.
 
"Hold on a second." Yuri says, grabbing his bow and whistling to three of his mates. "Stay here and guard the camp while I go with Grimnir." Then followed the dwarf in the direction of the cabin at full speed.

Cardiloc wakes up Radaa who promptly juts up as he hears the noise of the explosion.

"'Ey, Card. I think you better stay put while I follow them." He points at Yuri and Grimnir but remains with the young Dunlending in case he would prefer him to stay. It was up to Cardiloc to decide.

Dimitri awoke on a sleeping Celeste's lap as the sound interrupted a nightmare of his. Many others also woke in the commotion. There was some worry but after it passed the tension died down. There didn't seem to be any other noises...yet.

"Oh, no." Sam said, staring at the beast. They were quite a distance away in the river but it's huge size and menacing muscular shape could easily close that distance within a matter of seconds.

"Are you mad?" Dean finally said to Elodrin, "We can't hope to fight that thing. Let alone put up a fight," then turning to Sam ordered, "Sammy run." And both Gondorians began fleeing. Sam picked up Ha'zi in the process and started wading his way through the stream with the boy in hand.

Sigeric and Elodrin saw the bear land on its front legs, it's massive paws crushing the front gate. The creature then tensed, it's muscles flexing. It faced Elodrin and both men realized what it was about to do. The black bear's hind legs shot up as it started to charge the older Gondorian with ferocious determination.

Ha'zi stands up, dazed, and initially follows Sam and Dean but when he comes to and notices Sigeric and Elodrin, alone, facing the bear, he starts to protest to the fleeing Gondorians. "Hey!" He says sharply to Sam, "We have to go back to help them!"
