Sutoratosu Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 "A lucky shot, you brigading bastard..." she spat at the cur after the bolt struck home. Yup, there went her shoulder... but that didn't stop her from pressing forward. Not in the least bit, only strengthened her resolve, as she reached up and not so much as wincing, pulled the projectile out, shaft and all before tossing it to the deck. She clutched a single blood soaked hand to the wound, and like clockwork, the spirits responded, knitting broken flesh and muscle back together as best they could. It was settle, Archer boy was going down too, right with his captain. That is, until the boy and the rogue type from earlier rushed forward before she could skewer his sorry ass. Figures... what, were they going to just beat him into submission like the others- The sound of steel and wood thunking deep into flesh, the fading whistle high velocity flight, a boy's cry in pain... Spoiler "Let this be a lesson to all traitors. You only leave when you're dead. Hope you don't make the same mistake in your next life," "Shit!" "Karik!" The thought of running the man through, end him rightly right then and there, crossed her mind many times, in the mere second or two it took her to close the distance. But no... no, making sure he didn't bleed out from the wound was far more important. Like grandfather always said, better to prioritize saving lives first over taking them, if one were able. "Hang on! I-" "I-I...." She paused with the Vulnerary in hand, eyes fixing on the extent of the injury. It... it was a miracle he hadn't been killed on impact, really. She felt her hands begin to shake ever so slightly, as the image of the ruined body flashed in her mind, that woman standing over him like a demon... nothing she could do to stop any of it. She probably would've lost herself in the vision... had it not been for the resounding whispers breaking through it, invisible force steadying her hands for her. The spirits had once again returned to her side. She felt the resolve steadily return as the memory faded further from the background... A deep breath, in and out, mind focusing, heart growing still. The same centering technique her father had taught her so long ago. She braced her hand at the base of the shaft, clenching the vulnerary vial in her teeth as she gripped the shaft. Already she was asking the spirits for even more aid, there would blood soon. Alot of it, too much. The less he lost, the better off he'd be. "It's not your time. Not on this ship. Not these wandroughts. And not to an Arrow." Steady as stone, not a plead, not a bargain, just a statement of absolute fact with the conviction to match. With no further preamble, she moved. The arrow came loose slow at first, then all at once in single powerful pull, hand moving over the spout of blood as nearly instantly, the spirits too leapt into action, the tide beneath her fingers stemming like a dammed river as a hot, off white glow burned on Karik's chest. It was nowhere near enough to save him alone, but it kept him from going south as she reached up, and with one deft motion, unstoppered the medicine with her mouth and took her hand away as she poured, letting it seep directly into the wound. Normally drinking it would be preferable, true, but... there was no time for such nonsense as trying to make sure it actually got down without him choking. Near instantly, the boy would've felt a stinging like the worst burn he'd ever gotten, but even as it hurt like hell, his wound began to stitch itself back together. The white glow faded of the spirit's aid faded as she restoppered the vial... "Karik. Karik, can you hear me?" again, steady as stone...calm as the winter sky. hike up those panties like a big girl and ADMINISTER A LIFE-SAVING VULNERARY ON KARIK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InnocentSerenity Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) “Ugh...” Karik let out a groan, the stinging pain in his chest certainly the source of it. His eyes were getting watery, the feeling of nearing death’s door and being brought back from it something that was certainly not something he had learned before. Through his teary eyes, he saw a shade of red. It wasn’t the shade of red he knew but still, he hoped that it was that familiar red. The familiar red eyes of that beloved woman. Was it her? Was everything just some darn nightmare? Karik mentally shook his head, knowing full well that it wouldn’t be her. Not after so long. It was probably just some pirate’s uniform, come to make him work to the bone. Still, the more he looked at that red, the more it looked like… "Karik. Karik, can you hear me?" “Ca… Cadence...” Karik looked at the girl. The familiar red coat, almost bringing the boy to real tears as he realized where he was. Back on the pirate ship, closer and closer to finally going back home. Karik stared straight into the girl's red eyes, his memories of that woman coming back to him. “Guess that explains it.” “I… I’m fine.” Karik shook his head around, not wanting to put more worry on the Fencer. “Just a little woozy...” The boy pushed himself off the ground, sitting up straight. Pulling up his cloak and his tattered clothes, his eyes fixed themselves on the wound still left over. “Thank you. I’m sorry for troubling you like this.” Pushing his clothes back down, Karik got back onto his feet, stumbling a bit as he rose himself too quickly. Grabbing his axe, he used it as a cane to keep himself from falling over. “But, my wound certainly looks better than it should.” A Vulnerary could only do so much, and this was certainly more than that.. “I don't know how you did it, but thank you so much.” Karik gave a smile to the girl, trying not to fall over from his weak self.

Anstane Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) Darius visibly flinched as he saw the archer land his mark, bringing down the young pirate that joined their side. "Hmph, guess the brigands have some competence on their side after all" he thought to himself before starting to walk towards the nearly-dead bowyer. En route there, he walked past the fallen ally and noticed the red-haired fencer tending to his wounds. Even after he got up, it was clear he was not in good shape. "Hey, erm...Karik, is that right? Don't overexert yourself. You should try to recover first." the shaman called out to Karik before turning his gaze back over to the enemy archer, trying to ignore the pain both combatants are in. "Hmph. You think you're so tough, having struck him down? I will show you the error of your ways. Suffer!" Darius yelled out, practically pushing his face against the enemy before unleashing his magic onto the foe. Move to N24 and make the archer experience suffering.

Pyon Pyon Kyuu!~ Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Emilee covered her mouth in shock as she saw one of her allies fall. She let out a heavy sigh when she saw Candence act faster than her. She ran past everyone with excuse-mes and sorries being careful not to knock anyone off. When she reached the other boat she made sure she was sure footed before she turned to Karik. "Excuse me young man, but I think when we met I told you something." She put her hands to her hips, and put on a scolding tone. "I think I told you to be careful, something you didn't do just now." Emilee raised her staff and struck it at Karik's head. Not hard enough to hurt too much, only enough to sting and make a 'bop' noise. Then she let the staff's magic do it's work curing the ex-pirate of their more serious wounds. "Glad you're still with us. Don't make me have to worry about you." She lifted her staff and ruffled Karik's hair, giving him a calming smile.

Raindrop Valkyrie Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 "Now, that guy is out of the way... we can do some more helping." Rayne thought to herself. She only just wheeled around in time to see Karik take a massive hit. She winced at the blow. She wanted to yell out, but now wasn't the time. There wasn't really anything she could do she was too far away. They probably wouldn't have even heard her. It was... cruelly unfair that so young a boy had to go through these things. He was the age of one of her younger sisters, at least she figured. It was... too much a thought to bear, one of her sisters being bound up in this. Maybe it was just the older sister in her that cared so much. Either way, the one that she spoke with before, Cadence ran to the boys aid. Rayne's worry disappeared. However she got cuahgt up in it and forgot for but a moment where she was. That worry made her forget she was on a battlefield. Luckily... no archer was in reach of her, and no one could get to her over the water. Beau wouldn't have let her come to harm anyway, he'd have dodged out of the way. He'd definitely not be happy about having to do so though. She snapped back to reality and clicked her heels, more out of instinct. It was her way of returning to her senses. Beau didn't really like it but he did appreciate it for the fact that he knew it meant she got her head out of the clouds so he didn't protest at it. "Let's get to work shall we?" She flew around the ship seeing a Swordsman moving forward, probably to intercept her group, why not intercept him first? "Time to thread the needle~ GIGA RAYNEBEAU OVERDRIVE GO!"

rokubiraijuu Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 It is not the first time he's seen an ally fall in battle, but this turn of events seems, even then, too cruel. The child is still so young, and only has newly joined their cause -- even as he watches the fencer tend to his injuries and bring him back from the brink of death, watches as the young man struggles to his feet again with obvious difficulty, he wonders whether he is regretting his change of heart now. Would the spirits have been kinder to him otherwise? At least for now, though, it looks as though he will yet live; they will have to do what they can to preserve that, and not fail again when he is so young and has displayed so much promise. Casting his gaze forward, he lingers briefly on the body of the now-felled archer, lips pursing imperceptibly in disappointment. A pity they had not been able to obtain that Longbow in his possession; though the weapons here are of subtly different make than the bows of his home, it would have been a comfort to have an instrument in his hands again to which he is more suited. Another time, maybe. Spurring Kite once more into a canter, he guides the horse to the next ship's stable planks, and the stallion, this time, is more than willing to follow, eager to leave the unsteady bars of wood behind.

Sutoratosu Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 “I don't know how you did it, but thank you so much.” Karik gave a smile to the girl, trying not to fall over from his weak self. "Don't...mention...it..." she managed to answer the boy with, gritting her teeth on every syllable. Just moments later, the dark mage came by and finished the archer, and the priestess to see to the boy's injuries better than she herself could. She stayed sitting where she was all the while, not even trying to stand. So... was this their toll? Father had always told her that the words contained within tomes were not enough to prime the spirits, that they needed something else with it. Something to power them, give them the energy to effect the material world. The very reason why Tomes wore out over time just like blades and lances and other such inferior weapons- they held both the instructions and the power within their pages to let the spirits manifest. And every time they did, a bit more of that energy faded away. It made her wonder though... what if someone told the spirits to do something... without a book, as she just had? She was, regrettably, no mage, but she'd still done something noteworthy when she saved the boy just now. What happened when they had instructions- a clear task and target -but no tome to power them, as she'd seen the man demonstrate numerous times? Where did they draw it from, if they chose to listen and actually do it, as they had with him, and her? What about those times where they healed her of their own accord, could they have...even then? Even as she sat there, winded, in a cold sweat with chills, feeling herself tremble beneath the weighty burden of the coat though, the answer came clear to her. Indeed, If there was no tome... they'd simply take what they needed from the caller. It had to be it. An equally interesting, and dangerous thought. She'd done something relatively minor, compared to slinging full fledged thunder or sparking a conflagration, turn the wind into a blade... and even with as small a feat as make a barrier to stop his bleeding, this toll was worse than anything she'd felt during the fight. What would she have had to sacrifice for a greater showing? How much worse off would she be? "Perhaps... this is why... he always saved it for tight spots and emergencies, in hindsight...Goddess, I can hardly move...he... always made it seem so easy..." "This type of thing... it's what... allies are supposed...to do for each other... unlike these pirates... They just, let each other bite it. didn't even try to save their friends, if thats what any of them were. But... Those two, they're right, you know..." she said simply, after the other two had both come and gone. There wasn't much else she could do but chide him about the incident anyway, in her miserable state. "It was a lucky shot on him, bastard just barely got me too just before he did you... but still, try and be... a bit more careful. Don't underestimate a man who's on his last legs. That's when most will fight the hardest...that's when they have the most to lose." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InnocentSerenity Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Karik tried not to look directly towards the Healer, embarrassed from the rather nice treatment from the nice lady. “Th- thank you, Emilee..” Karik looked towards the ground, his voice rather quiet. “I’ll be more careful.” The boy turned his attention back to listen to Cadence. "It was a lucky shot on him, bastard just barely got me too just before he did you... but still, try and be... a bit more careful.” “I will, but...” Karik could hear the weakness in her speech. Teeth gritted, syllables struggling to come out. Her only visible wound was the arrow that got her, but that wasn’t enough to bring anyone to that much harm. Karik could ask what was wrong, but he knew that wouldn’t do anything. Now wasn’t the time for a question. Wasn’t much a young boy could do, but he offered what he had. Putting his arms up behind his cloak, Karik started to remove it, the red fabric still soft, even if it wasn't the most clean thing. Holding it between his hands, Karik outstretched his arms towards Cadence. “Here, you don’t seem very well.” Karik gave a smile to the girl as he spoke. “Probably won’t help you much, but you're sweating quite a bit. You could use something to help clean it up.” He wanted to know why. What had she done to exhaust herself like that. He was sure of one thing, though. It was probably his fault.. “And whatever you did… Don’t do it again.” Karik tried to keep smiling, not wanting to seem ungrateful. “We don’t need a second person going down.” Edited December 6, 2016 by InnocentBoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasssnake485 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Time seemed to slow down as the arrow flew through the air and met its mark. One part of Chirya's mind screamed at her to turn away, the other yanked at her to help. Her body did neither. She watched in horror as their newest ally fell back onto the planks with a thump. "No... NO!!" she screamed, reaching out to him but her body disobeyed still. The last thing she noticed was a blur of red and the pale blue sky before she passed out. ~ Chirya blinked awake and pulled herself into a sitting position. Shit! How long was I out for?! Glancing around, she didn't see much difference between the current world and the one she'd passed out in. Probably just for a minute or two, then. She breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Cadence helping the wounded boy, and suppressed a tiny giggle when Emilee scolded him for being reckless. "Well, I guess it's time to play my part too," she murmured, mostly to herself. Chirya picked herself up and leapt across the planks, her dancer's balance keeping her steady despite her shakiness inside, and gave her performance again.

You could use something to help clean it up. And whatever you did… Don’t do it again. We don’t need a second person going down.” "..." she looked at the proffered cloth for a moment, still visibly shaking beneath the coat, before finally she relented. With an unsteady hand she took the thing and tried to dab away the chilling persperation, letting out a small chuckle despite the gross amount of discomfort still wracking her injured form. "I...guess you have... a point." "Perhaps It wasn't.... the best of ideas.... for me to have dabbled in things I obviously didn't understand the full extent of...." she handed the cloak back, nodding in appreciation. Her legs still refused to respond. "Heh...my father always made it seem so simple....calling the spirits to his aid with nothing but raw willpower. Maybe.... instead of... standing there in awe as a little girl... I should've bothered to ask him more.... about it. But it was the only way I could think of.... to stop you bleeding out before the medicine could work. A fair enough....trade off in the end. I've gone this whole fight wounded and battered, this.... this is nothing... really..." It was a bold faced lie, and she fucking knew it- if it wasn't for the fact that her lungs kept insistently grasping for sweet air, she would've been sure she was on death's door. How the hell sages managed to do this and keep standing, let alone press forward alot of the time like it was nothing, was beyond her... years of practice and training, probably. Practice and training she'd been denied even the most basic forms of her whole life... damn fencing regiment. before the conversation could continue much further though, there came the dancer from earlier. It was most definitely a welcome change as the reinvigorating aura washed over her. Her legs finally responding again, managed to stand, using the rapier as a anchor as she turned to the dancer and the boy. "...thanks, I.... needed that. Badly. But.... there's no time to lose. Only a few of them left, might as well finish what they started." with an unsteady step forward, and the next few after growing steadily stronger, she headed off the planks and onto the enemy vessel, pausing for just a moment or two as she inspected the ruined body of the archer. So... this was darkness. the real thing, actually put to use and not just some hingepoint in an old book or lecture... "Enjoy your stay in hell, you salty bastard..." and with that, she continued on.

Anstane Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 "The fools are still getting ready to fight? Can't they see they have no chance against us?" Darius sighed out to himself. Any reasonable party would lay down their arms and surrender at this point, but clearly they're not what you'd call reasonable. In fact, he had no idea what to call them: Stupid, suicidal or both. Either way, they'd be doing everyone a favor by getting rid of these brigands. Thus, he stepped forward onto the pirate ship proper and approached the sword-wielding mercenary. "You can clearly see you can't win this fight. Do you truly intend to try?" The Shaman shouted at the enemy. "Hah! Ye think we're just goin' ta give up after seein' ya bring down most of our crew? Me boss'n I will show ya what happens when ye cross us!" "...suit yourself. Then you shall join your compatriots. Suffer, fool!" Darius called to the elder spirits and struck at the enemy.

Aurorix Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 "Karik!" Belros shouted as he witnessed the arrow fly into the boys chest creating an almost fatal wound. Luckily Cadenece and Emilee were there to patch him up but this shouldn't have happened. How could he have let this happen? "If only I was stronger, then people would stop dying around me! These pirates will pay!" If these pirates want to fight dirty he'll respond in kind. Sheathing his sword he now goes for what he's more antiquated with, knives. From barrel to barrel, stealthy approaching the last remaining pirates Belros got into position to throw some knives at these scum. "Hey you vermin! I think you've caused enough pain, so enjoy the death that awaits you!" Drawing out a knife, Belros threw it at the sword wielding pirate aiming to cause the pirate some pain from a safe distance.

Sutoratosu Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 "Yeah... if I don't kill myself from the damn strain before we finish, that is..." she mumbled as her body once more tried, and largely failed, to adjust to what had over the course of the fight become a seemingly endless cycle of her wounds being agitated, reopened, and then closed right back again. She was thankful for the help of the spirits, she was, but.... it didn't generally feel too great having her muscles torn, ribs cracked and gashes opened and undone over and over again. More like a form of torture really, even moreso than the sight she got from looking over at the pirate's captain, as he brought out his secondary weapon. Yup, the bastard made her sick to be honest. He was, without a doubt, completely fine with how this turned out, just look at that ugly smirk. Most commanders felt guilt at losing men unnecessarily, or at the very least some type of shame or personal slight to themselves for lost honor and reputation. Captain boi just sat over there smug as an idiot. "Look...Can we just wipe that ugly grin off his mug? I think I'm gonna get seasick if I have to stare at the mess this idiot has caused much longer. If he actually had some damn sense, he would've taken the rest of his men and walked away long before it came to this..." With that said, she herself pressed on further across the deck.... if only these barrels were pillars though. One of the only actually useful things fencing had taught her, and she couldn't even use it here. Move to Q28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InnocentSerenity Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) "I've gone this whole fight wounded and battered, this.... this is nothing... really..." "I don't believe you for one minute." Karik took back his cloak, watching as Cadence ran off with Chirya's help. Karik knew she wouldn't admit anything. He just stood still, his mind elsewhere as he fidgeted around with his cloak. Karik snapped out of his own reverie when he heard Darius and Belros moving ahead. “Gah, time to get runnin’.” Karik put his cloak over his shoulders, putting it right back on before dashing ahead. Karik was able to get a peek at the Spy’s battle. “Belros, ye got yer glasses on? He’s right there.” Karik made his quick quip before positioning himself close behind Madante. Karik’s eyes darted to the man at the steering wheel. The tall muscular man with his ridiculous mustache. “There’s Gonzap.” Feelings of anger began to rise as as he gripped onto his Axe. "Once he’s gone, I’m sure of it. This nightmare will be over.” Spinning his axe around, Karik readied himself to approach, resolved to finally get off this ship.

rokubiraijuu Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 The rise in their party's morale doesn't go unmarked; though it's macabre to think of Karik's near-death in such a way, Idei recognizes that the damage the pirates had done to them has served as a catalyst, bolstering their willpower and determination to make the marauders answer for their crime. Suddenly, this fight has become personal, and the shift is palpable. It's interesting, given that the young boy has only been with them for a short time, has not even trained with them all these months, and already has such an impact on all of them. Is it because of his youth and inexperience, or is it something else? Regardless, there isn't much time to simply stand around and ruminate on the reasons behind such things, only give it fleeting contemplation. Up ahead, two of his allies have already begun their assault on the next adversaries. Though the nomad himself would have preferred a more careful tactical approach, there's nothing to be done about it now that others have already sped onward. In such a situation, he would be selfish not to do the same and help them. Deft fingers find the soft fletching of another arrow as he spurs Kite into motion with a subtle suggestion, and as his mount breaks into a gallop and covers the distance with the loud clatter of hooves on hollow wood, he matches the arrow tip to his target. "Let me help," he offers quietly in passing to the spy as he rides past him, and lets the arrow fly with a snap of bowstring. Move to S27 and feather Merc 4.
