"You WILL pay for this" the bandit leader was rising to his feet, quint didnt wait another second. He sprinted at the bandit and lunged but the bandit leader was not as incompitant as he thought. The bandit leader countered quints attack with a blow to the stomach which threw quint flying. He recovered in the air and landed on his feet but was still injured. " ok i'm not playing around anymore" Quint unsheathed his second katana. Then he sprinted at the bandit leader one last time "BOLT" quint yelled and a bolt of wind came flying at the bandit. While the bandit leader was distracted by quints bolt he jumpd into the air"CLOUD" and once again a dense fog fell. the only sounds that came out of the fog was the deflection of quints bolt and two thuds. when the fog lifted there was quint and there was the bandit leader, who was cut into three pieces. Quint sheathed his katanas. he winced "that punch did some work on my stomach, it will be bruised for weeks, how are you doing vaek, you ok?"

"Well then, that's all sorted then." Lord chuckled as the bandit's corpses lay across the once peaceful town of Vault. He began to examine the bodies, and picked up a sword from the bandit's leader.
"Nice... A new sword...but who deserves it most? I say Quint, for putting out the leader, but my voice is only half of the law." Lord began to laugh, and turned to Vaek, who was still clutching his arm.
"Your thought's? Or should we just get to somewhere safe first?" Lord questioned. "Even if we have defeated the main group, I'm betting there are stragglers who could come back and attack the village again," Lord pondered. "Should we just get out of here, or get those villagers, and ourselves, to the relative safety of Bibilin? Decisions, decisions." Lord sat down. This day was going to be longer than he first thought.

"Well then, perhaps this could be just for me," Lord considered for a moment. "Unless you want it, Vaek?" Regardless, Lord seemed content with the new blade, and went about finding the hilt for it.
"We still have no course of action, even if we have taken out the rest of the bandits. And what's happening here? Surely someone must of heard the battle." Lord continued. He picked up a bloodied hilt, and frowned. This hilt would wait for some other time to be cleaned up. For now, the village came first.

Vaek slowly stood up, still clutching his arm. "Ok, we can help the villagers, but we can't stay here for too long. I want to reach Imil quickly before it's too late." He didn't want to explain what he saw concerning Ivan's dead body, but he knew they would find out eventually.
"You're hurt really bad. We have to heal that."
"I'm fine. I don't want to be a burden to the others. Besides, the sooner we leave, the sooner we can save Mia."
"You think she's alive?"
"I think she's in danger. The bandit leader was tough, but he's not smart enough to lead an attack like this, or kill Ivan."
"Then he must have been working for someone."
"I guess, but who?"

"Let's help these people out. Then we can hit the road." Vaek was still clutching his broken arm, and he wasn't sure what to do about it. If he was a more powerful adept, he could heal it, but for now he was going to have to deal with it. "I just hope Mia is ok." he said to himself.
"I'm sure she will be fine. She's a powerful Mercury Adept, and she can heal herself if hurt."
"I hope you're right."

Lord sighed again. They were one man down, and had a burden of villagers upon them.
"Say, aren't there going to be more people around here? Most, I think, would have been inside, unless... Nah. That wouldn't happen. I hope." Lord spoke, trailing into a whisper at the end. The villagers... Was that what they were doing when he saw them? Fleeing? Being killed? Or were they more bandits? And what happened to the Elder? And why did they stop off here exactly? They had enough supplies to easily make it through Gohma Cave. Answers were needed. And now.
"I'm... going to salvage... what I can from the village, and spread it out amongst the survivors. Help if you wish..." Lord declared, as he hastily walked off towards the nearest house. Starting with the doors which were open, so he might not have had as large a shock as he was in for...

Vaek followed Lord to the house. "Lord, there's something I have to tell you, but I need you to promise that it will remain between us, as leaders."
"Don't make a wrong decision."
"Lord is not a spy for the Wise One, ok?"
"You may regret this."

Yath Meanwhile, in one of the Inns, a young man was trying to rest... "Ah... can't they keep it down out there...?" the man said, and looked out the window grogily, "Eh... Bandits... right... sleep..." He then shot up, and yelled, "BANDITS!?!" He changed into his traveling garb, and ran outside, aparently hitting a bandit smack in the face as he shoved the door open. "Uh... whoops... S-sorry..." He apoloized "Geh! No! Youse hit me, so I'll keel youse!" The bandit exclaimed, reading his battle axe. "Fine then..." the young man said, and went into a battle stance, His feet spred out, the left one infront, the right one behind him, and he held his sword in two hands, turning his body to the right, and his sword rised at that side, "You'll regret this..." Cairne was charging another bandit until a door swung open and hit the man in the face. The person emerging apologized and then raised a sword to him. So Cairne decided to help him along by kick the bandit into the sword. "Excellent day for bloodshed if I do say so myself." The frenzied smile again plastered across his face, blood dripping from his axe. "complete filures these, I don't know why he bothers" He continued, mumbling to himself. He turned to the man with a bandit on his sword. Wel what are you doing, finish the b*****d!"

But before he could, Irvin stepped in from the shadows and decapitated the bandit.
Everyone asked where he had been, Irvin replied:
"I've been waiting here".

Quint! Sorry I'm late...I was a little...uhm...distracted. You see I was attacked by bandits on the way here, three to be exact. I kicked all of their asses though. So where are the others?? did they leave without us? Helena laughed a low cold laugh.

Cairne laughed at Irvin. "Seems I'm working with cowards. None of you seem to really fight, you just sit in the background wiating for an opportunity. Well I AM an opportunity. Maybe you people should try fighting for once, it can help relive stress. Which reminds me..." The same sadistic smile crept slowly across his face as he turned to go find Lord.
He dragged a few bodies to a pile he had made, counting in his head he approximated about 15 bandits he had killed and at least 10 more from the others.
Cairne came upon Quint and Vaek and Lord with another girl, Helena.
"About time you showed up, you're the only one here I actually like. Could kick any of these girls asses in a heartbeat, except mine of course."
He took out a small box and a cigar from the box. He lit it using psi and took a long puff. Nothing like a vitory smoke.
"so what took ya?"

"watch your tounge, you are just a simple-minded idiot who kills just to kill. You might have killed 15 bandits but you didnt off the one that really mattered so just keep your useless thoughts to your self"
"he has no idea" quint thought to himself
