Even after Camilla had dipped her cloth covered plank into some sort of liquid in a barrel she still couldn't get it to light! Sighing and puffing her cheeks out a bit she decides she has more important things to do and so she moved off to see how she could help however she still carried the unlit torch with her in case she could grab a light from someone
She had two options... help load the weapons or help block the door... Seeing as while she was well muscled she was more about speed helping to block the door made the most sense to her... problem was... she could barely see! The gravity of this problem became apparent when in her haste to grab something she grabed SOMEONE! They also had a crossbow at their side... wait could she have? "Oops! Huh? ...Shayne? Is that you?" she asks the random person who's arm she had grabbed in the dark
Sheyenne Thunderstorm
Hah hah! Choose Shayne to grab because I seriously need to mow the lawn now! :/
SECURING THE DOOR Shayne grabbed a table and pushed it towards the door. "We need to hold them off somehow." The redheaded boy told himself. Right after, he felt a hand grabbed and a voice that sound familiar to him. "Camila?" He asked as he hold up his touch up to see who it was.

NOAH IS SECURING THE DOOR
Noah squeaked as he was smacked out of nowhere, lost his balance, half-fell over against Koray, squeaked again with embarrassment and scrambled up. "Sorry -- "
The girl who'd slapped him, accidentally -- he hoped it was an accident, anyway, he had no idea what he could have done to warrant a slap -- didn't even apologize, and Noah stared after her incredulously for a moment. "Okay, fine," he grumbled, and helped finish hauling the table into place.
When he reached for another piece of furniture to haul against the door, though, he found himself grabbing something warm instead, and hastily let go of someone's arm. "Sorry!" he squeaked again. This wasn't going so well.

They seemed a little incredulous, but really, what did they expect-- this wasn't some place she could stop. Or well, she did stop, but that was only because they were in the way.

[ENTER]
It was utterly chaotic. Claude arrived, making sure to stay out of the way of others who were busily and frantically securing and preparing. She knew she needed to do the same, so the first order of business was to get a torch...
Well then.
This wasn't going well.
She assembled what she could, but alas. As much as she didn't like to work with others, she could set aside that dislike for now. Especially right now. "Hey." She called out to an another knight-appreciate. "I need assistance." She held up her unlit torch.

[Oliver - Has a Torch]
Her secret was safe, Oliver barely managed to glance up at her eyes. Had he been so nervous and bashful before giving up his memories, or had his past self learned to become better than this?
"Ah, th-thank you," he said quickly, his shoulders slumping slightly with relief. Now there was extra light, not to mention an extra person, the darkness didn't seem quiet as overwhelming. But that noise on the other hand...
"Do you know what it is, um, that sound?" Oliver asked, turning to look through the darkness and pinpoint where it might be coming from. If he could believe the sour knot in his stomach, he already knew. "Th-the gate... d-do you know? W-we are being attacked?"
In the darkness, he heard a shout for assistance, and jumped before waving his torch in that direction

The sky was a void, just the deepest shade of onyx, Damien was sure that the light from the torch was just falling into its abyss. It was faint but there were beacons, Orbs of brightness against the backdrop of woods and frantic movement that he was getting closer to. the smaller figure that bounced and jumped at every sound, but he was thankful for the light in his hands. "Thank you Torchbearer." he enthused and grabbed at anything to place against the collection of items on the gate.
Putting a horse at the very top was a foolish idea on his part.

Shun wasn't sure how many more things they could pile up up against the door. People were still scampering about to see what they could do. As he searched, two women approached him with unlit torches. It seemed that he was the go-to guy for this sort of thing tonight. He nodded curtly to both of them, holding his flame out to ignite both of their torches.
"There. Now hurry. I do not know how much time we have left," he stated sternly.

NA'IMA IS SECURING THE DOOR - HAS A LIT TORCH
Na'ima smiled. "Thank you, Sir. Of course." She walked away then, looking around for what to add to the whole..door thing. What to--oh. A training dummy. That worked! She held the torch firmly in one hand and curled an arm around the training dummy, dragging it from the corner it was stashed in to drop it haphazardly with the rest of the door blockage.
"Hm..what else..."

Wrath has a torch~ WRATH IS SECURING THE DOOR
With his following entourage, Wrath made his way to the door, torch sweeping the area so that he could better see what, exactly, they were dealing with. While doing this, he nodded to himself, before turning to his little crew.
"Well, I think at this point we will be better off to split up and barricade the door by any means necessary. Also." He turned to Dirge at this point, now grinning, his teeth flashing in the torch light. "She is not mine yet, but I will make it so!" A slightly delayed response to the matter of his heart and just who it lay with, before he was whirling away in search of something useful.
Ah, there! Making his way to an empty crate, he lifted it with ease, muscles barely needing to strain, before taking it to the door and hefting it up with the rest of the objects that lay in front of it.
And that's when he saw her. She looked even more ravishing by the flickering flame that she held in her hand, lighting up her dark beauty. They were standing mere feet apart, and his face split in a grin at the sight of her.
"M'lady! You are looking as enchanting as ever!"
Yes. Even in the middle of a siege, he definitely had time for this.
Any men in the near vicinity were given a hard, narrow glance that clearly said back off this one is mine in savage man speak.

In the dark, something stirred. Slowly the footfalls of something moving on the stone walkway and the slow dragging of something.

My character's name: Arrakis Dismth Character's journal link: [xXx] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER Arrakis is tall and built as if still growing into his body, with long arms and legs and shoulders that will broaden eventually. His long auburn hair is almost always worn back in a braid to keep it well out of his way. An active individual, he prefers to spend most of his time doing things that keep him moving (such as sword drills) and the tan lines on his olive skin show his love of being outside. Rank of character 1d4

His bones still ached from the sound of that scraping noise, his heart beating rapidly in his chest. If the Great Knight Percival were here, then it was worse that Arrakis had feared. Steeling himself, he grabbed a hunk of wood the size of his head and attempted to light it. He needed a way to see. Something was giving him a very bad feeling. Them? He needed to be able to see this "them".
But Percival was gone before Arrakis could ask, and looking around made him notice that gash in the sky above. It branched and grew and spread, and that feeling in Arrakis' gut grew heavier and heavier. Then, as he realised that lighting this wood was a lost cause, the sky shattered and he froze, staring up at it in horror.
Horror blended with terror, and he knew, then, that this was not new.
He was one of those that dropped, hands over his ears, turning the air as blue as the eagle tabard as that horrific screeching shattered his focus on finding a light.But then he was running, and then... silence.
...Arrakis almost rathered the horrible noise.
He was grateful, in the back of his mind, that Percival's words brought his focus back to where it needed to be. Arrakis rushed to obey the order, running up to a dark-haired girl and holding out his torch towards hers, trying to get his torch to light from hers without getting in her way.

NA'IMA HAS A TORCH || NA'IMA IS SECURING THE DOOR
A chair would have to do. She could only lift so much weight with both arms free, it was significantly less what she could carry with one. She grabbed it with one hand, dragging the chair along until she heard a newly familiar voice. She turned her head to look Wrath's way, watching him carry a crate toward the growing pile.
"...You're looking better," she observed simply, "able to carry boxes and everything. That's good to see. How are you, Wrath?" The chair was tossed onto the pile. Despite her pleasant conversation starter, her tone didn't seem terribly into it. Why was he bothering her now?
In the darkness she missed the looks he was shooting the men around them working to barricade the door. He was lucky for that.

Wrath has a torch~ WRATH IS SECURING THE DOOR
"I am feeling much better." He grinned, "Both physically and mentally. A good battle really gets the blood pumping!" Okay, his grin was actually looking a tad more on the viciously excited side then the jovial.
Noticing that somebody was about to go barreling into Na'ima, he reached out and grabbed onto her wrist, unwittingly pressing a gauntleted thumb directly against the tattoo that was hidden underneath her glove. He tried to pull her towards him so that she would not be collided with, before releasing her again.
There. He had saved her.
"Perhaps." His smile, and the look in his eye, turned to something slightly more lusty. "When this is all over, you and I may celebrate our victory together! And then I can personally show you just how good I am." A wink, and a throaty laugh.
This all happened sometime seconds before all hell broke loose.
