Sky: You know, you attacked him, so you deserve everything you got.

The magewarrior finished his drink and walked over to the pool.

Sky: You do anything more and you'll have a lot more to worry about.

Nova: So, um, anyone up for some Dodongo stew tonight? I hear it's pretty good.

The group gives the rogue a very odd look.

Nova: Granted, it wasn't so much a reliable source as a crazy man, but still, it might be worth trying.

Ark would quickly regret giving Cassandra the spear, as he soon found it shoved deep into his gut. The girl got to her feet and kicked the warrior over before turning to Arminas and Lily. She said nothing, and her eyes seemed vacant, but she wore an expression of pure hatred.

Sky: Eh, I'm up for a little stroll. Walking around is a lot more pleasant when you don't have someone to save or something trying to kill you. Those things tend to make up a large portion of my life.

Sky: I'm not his bodyguard, but I am his friend. And I don't take kindly to people threatening my friends. And from what you've already done, it didn't really seem like you were joking. You've caused enough trouble here already.

Without so much as a sound, Cassandra had flung a fire-filled fist at Arminas before he could react, knocking him into the wall. And then she fell to the floor, motionless once more.

******

Sky: That's one thing I've noticed in my trips so far...monsters tend to stay out of towns, even inadequately defended ones. Do you know any particular reason for that?

Cassandra woke up, as if from a long nap, and found herself in a rather uncomfortable position. Her head hit the back of the wagon as it rolled over the uneven road. She tried to pick herself up only to realize that her hands and feet were bound. It could only mean one thing: she was the third person in the group to have been kidnapped that day.

Cassandra: Just...great.

But it seemed like her kidnappers hadn't been very clever, as she had woken up, from what she could tell, still in town, in broad daylight. She hated to use such a cliché method of getting help, but it made sense, as they hadn't even thought to gag her.

Cassandra: HELP ME! THESE PEOPLE ARE KIDNAPPING ME!

And with that, she let out a scream at about the loudest level most normal people could produce. Hopefully some of the townspeople would hop to action and stop these bumbling kidnappers. But she wondered how they had gotten her in the first place, since she didn't remember that at all...

Nova: There's no way you'll make it back by nightfall on foot, and it gets pretty cold out here. The way I see it, you can camp here, or I can take two of you back.

Sabor walks up to the rogue, who scratches his ears.

Nova: I think he can take about 3 of us comfortably, and he's been so good today I don't really want to burden him with more. Problem is, that leaves at least two of you in the desert all night.

Cassandra recognized the voices. She thought there was something odd about Arminas before, but now she knew her suspicions were correct. He had probably done away with Allison himself for his own purposes, and now she was next. This wasn't just a simple kidnapping, either, but something far more dire. Sky would take care of him, she knew, but maybe not before something happened to her.

Struggling against her bonds, Cassandra squirmed her way out of the wagon, knowing it would hurt when she hit the earth. Still, it would show the townspeople just how serious the situation was, and maybe one of them would cut her bonds and allow her to escape before that villain Arminas and his apparant accomplice Lily were able to intervene. Her voice was panicked as she sought help from the villagers.


Cassandra: Oomph! Ow...someone, please, help me! They tied me up and now they're going to do something awful!

Cassandra: Don't believe him! The others pretended to be friends, but he already tried to kill me and other members of the group we were travelling with!

Cassie was crawling as quickly as she could...which wasn't very...away from the cart, beseeching the crowd to help.

Cassandra: Just someone cut these ropes and help me!

Cassandra was terrified. She hadn't been skewered by the spear, but as the wagon started moving she saw her hopes of escape slip away. He had said she would be all right, but then, he had already tried to kill her and the rest back on the cliff. Why hadn't she gone with Sky and Lucas and Clara, she wondered...she would have been safe then...as it was now, she was probably going to suffer whatever horrible fate had befallen Allison.

But she wasn't about to give up that easily. She knew Sigmund would probably keep a tight hold on her, but she didn't care. If they were going to kill her, she wasn't going out without a fight. She squirmed as much as she could, and managed to bite his hand, which moved aside just long enough to let out a small scream. She could only pray someone had heard it.

Nova: Well, I could at least give you a ride as far as there, you know.

A wisp of flame bellowed forth from the remains of the mountain. It would appear Volvagia might still be alive under there. For how long, though, the rogue could only guess.

((You did say we could control them, so long as we didn't do anything drastic, right?))

Sky: How small...are the small boats? I have to admit, I'm not exactly a fan of sea travel, particularly on craft which might be unwieldy in the case of a storm.

Clara smiled.

Clara: Oh, does someone get a bit seasick?

Sky: Erm, let's just say I've had some bad experiences and leave it at that.

Sky: Riddle? Seemed pretty clear to me. Not much room in that simple note for wordplay and the like. But then, you know him better than I do.


****

Cassandra wasn't about to take any chances. She knew there was no discussion with them. She only hoped it would work. Wasting no time, she kicked out at Ark, knocking him off balance, before leaping off the wagon and running back towards the town. She couldn't believe the 'heroes' of the town had been taken in so easily, but they would have to help her this time.

Cassie knew the others could run fast, and could probably catch her, but she didn't care. The adrenaline coursed through her veins as she ran faster than she ever had...maybe...just maybe...she could make it.

Cassandra: I have no idea what you're talking about! Just let me go! What do you even want with me?!? And what did you really do to Allison?!?

Cassandra wasn't even sure herself if she was angry or terrified. The two emotions flooded together as she broke into tears and backed away from Ark.

Sky: Gee, sounds like he really does know everything, including when we'd come by here. Seems like we already knew to go to Angel Lake, though, so that's not much of a riddle.

Boy: Oh, the note also says that he decided to make it easy on you since he doesn't think much of your problem-solving skills

Sky: Bastard.

************

At this point, Cassandra was sobbing uncontrollably, yelling through the tears.

Cassandra: Stop it...just stop it! Just let me go! I never did anything to you!

Honestly, I don't understand why anyone thinks of the Story Forum as a "cheap" way to get posts. It's at LEAST as valuable as posting other places, and certainly a lot better than most of the posts I see in this forum.

And as it says in the wikipedia entry on it, we're an open group of people. You want to join us, you can. Just so long as you're not spammy. Because we don't WANT it to be a spam forum like some people seem to think it is, we actually make an effort to prevent that.

I don't see how it's cruel and mean at all. The Sinistrals in the game are all-powerful beings...wouldn't you want to be an all-powerful being?

They only became the villains when they razed towns with their left hands!

Cute, definitely. Stuffed animal love! For some reference, see the absolutely HORRID picture of me with a friend a couple pages back, also with stuffed animals.

Edit: It should be noted that my hair is nowhere near as long as it was in that picture, nor will it ever be again considering how awful it was then.
