Rolling, Failing,
And with that spring
Back to life
And I might roll again
Tonight.But that's not the only thing you're here for! Here is the round as well!
HEN (3 + 1 = 4)
You lift up your crossbow, and fire a sneaky shot at Dan's head from the crowd. (4 v. 2) You hit! Dan gets knocked down by the force of the impact, and for a second, you believe he's dead. But of course, you wouldn't have it that easy. He stands back up, the bolt still embedded in his skull. How he is still moving, you don't know. He seems pretty pissed, though. He turns in the direction of the crowd, and they instantly thin, leaving you standing there, holding the crossbow and looking guilty. You wince as Dan actually pulls the arrow out of his head. He proceeds to load it into his power rifle.
"I believe this is yours." and he fires. (2 v. 4) The shot flies past your head, and you snatch it out of the air, then load it into your bow in one swift move, and fire it back at Dan. He is hit in the chest. That's the second time he got shot... with the same arrow. Amazing that he's not dead after both of those.

You take off your armor, wrap it up as tight as you can, and touch it to the Glyph in your bag, thinking,
"Primal Beast."The Glyph responds with a lot of buzzing, as if it is thinking, then you feel the armor grow warm in your hands. You put it back on, and notice something. You feel as if you are one with this armor, with the Primal Beast. You sense things that you never noticed before. Scents that were not obvious until now. Fur, and blood. The metallic stench of blood clouds the night like nothing else could. Your nose is a powerful tool.

You start sneaking around the guy with the gun. He seems busy taking shots from a crossbow, so you easily get around him. You then walk up to him as his back is to you, and put the dagger to his throat. He laughs and points his gun backwards, right up to your chest. ♥♥♥♥.
"Give me an excuse to pull this trigger, you sneaky scumbag."You don't feel like doing that right now.

Adam (4 + 1 = 5)
As Dan is taking crossbow bolts to his head and chest, you turn around and charge once more. (5 v. 1)
He takes the punch full in the face. You hear a cracking sound as his jaw is moved uncomfortably to the side. That must have hurt, because your fist stings just from striking him. AFter stopping yourself, you turn around to take a look. He has a dent in the side of his mouth. He takes two hands to his jaw, and cracks it back into place.
What IS this guy??

Johni ties a bandage around your lower body, making sure to get it tight enough to be uncomfortable.
"Bastard..." You're not adressing Johni when you say this. You're adressing that damn gunman.
You heft up a rock from the ground and chuck it with full force at Dan's eye. (4 v. 4) He moves at the last second, avoiding the attack, but everyone else seems to be laying a beating on the guy. He's taken crossbow shots to the head and chest, gotten slugged in the face by Adam, and now has a dagger up to his throat.
Yet he's still alive. You've gotta admire his determination.

Yeah, I made Nonsequitorian's character a little godly, didn't I? But hey, where would the challenge be if he was easily killed?
Oh, and Non, we don't need a wave of 400 puppies. That wouldn't make very much sense. But I have a way to keep you in everyone's memory, don't worry.
