little bit exciting, but here's why.... (sorry we don't have a video, you'll
have to bear with my poor storytelling abilities. and sorry that it took me so
long to report it... I really didn't feel like typing for a while).
Well, Vorien and I got word from IBA about where DE was, so we hurried on down
to him... I must say the town was very eerie. When we got there we could count
the people on the street. Two. The definitely were outsiders. They seemed to be
looking for someone -- two guesses on who it was. So Vorien and I figure that
we would watch them and see if they led us to DE.
As we were tailing them, I couldn't shake this feeling that something wasn't
quite right. I mentioned it to Vorien and he said that there was more than just
something not right with them, but he said I would be better off if I didn't
know. We followed them to this small house on the outskirts of the village.
Inside, we could hear pretty damn good drumming. The guys tryed to enter but
the door was locked. Then faster than I expected they broke down the door, and
tried to enter again.
It was wierd though, because they couldn't. They stopped dead short. We were
about to deal with them, when one of the men called into a radio.
We were about to strike because we thought our odds of winning would be
decreased by -- err.... more people coming, but DragonEyes appeared and started
running. I couldn't figure it out and there was still that good drumming
playing in the house. Well I figured I would get DE before them guys did, but
they noticed me and DE at the same time. One went after DE and the other
started shooting at me.
Can't begin to explain a lot of what happened because it was really a blur.
Somehow, I managed to get within a few meters of DE while this guy who was
after me started paying attention to Vorien. (probably because he got shot in
his hand). I hear Vorien scream in pain and was torn which way to go when,
DragonEyes just ups and disappears.
Sort of vaguely, I heard the drums stop. I turned to go help out Vorien and I
eat the other's guys shoulder. I never faced a street sam before, and god it
was an unpleasant feeling. Before I knew it, I was eating pavement. Vorien said
afterwards, that the only reason he broke free is that the person he was
fighting froze for about 3 seconds. Which gave him enough time to slam to small
bursts into the guy dropping him. Vorien screamed after fighting him. I vaguely
saw him covered in some green junk, that came spraying out of the guy. Man, it
was a nasty sight. People just don't bleed like that.... Anyway, I was getting
my neck twisted off, so about all I could see was Vorien covered in green ooze
and comin' running to me.... apparently reinforcement's came at that time. That
is pretty much the last thing I remember for a while....
I came to, and we were in a van. In the back of the van was DragonEyes, looking
like.... well sort of what PH looked like from IBA's video.... save that he was
still breathing. I felt like I had just walked through hell and back again. And
apparently the driver had too, but hadn't made it back. Painfully, I started to
bandage DragonEyes so he didn't die on us, then I started myself. It was
difficult to do that while being involved in a car chase and the other guys
firing lead at us. What was even wierder was that the locals just sat back and
watched (or at least that what I figured out from what Vorien was screaming
about...) Finally I got back up front, and helped Vorien by starting to fire
back. Can't say I was terribly effective. I don't know how DragonEyes managed
to do it... he woke up, told Vorien to drive one block forward and then go left
and get outta dodge fast... (well not exactly) and he cast a spell... after
about 3 seconds he passed out again. The rest of the ride was pretty
uneventful. Whatever DE did... it sure kicked up a storm.
I suppose when it was all said and done Vorien looked worse than I felt, which
I thought was improbable considering he stayed conscious though the whole
fight, and DragonEyes was barely alive.
Well that was this past weekend. Since then we have gotten some rest, helped
out the patient that needed help. I'm staying behind but Vorien and DragonEyes
said there was more that they needed to do. Lucky me... I get to have a 4 days
off before I have to go back to work. I'll think I'll use it to sleep up and
maybe stop having nightmares about people ringing my head off. I mean sheesh...
I'm only a medic, I don't want to be on the front line.
I suppose if you want a better story of what happened you might ask DragonEyes
and Vorien what happened? They would probably have a better clue. 'fraid I was
just to paniced to really be sure...]<<<<<
