((BD: My char is asking for a jedi that's good at being undetected))

Ulna Shardes Space

Starr: Foolish being. Fire on the ship. But do not destroy it. *He closes his eyes, then opens them again* Tojo, have a few fighters sent out to attack him. A standard retrieval squad. But ensure that he escapes, alive, if not in one piece.

----------

Coruscant Streets

Rwos: Lokpihet? Persistent...doesn't that guy ever go away?

Gilian: Sure, they're drawing together to get stronger, but why? Why now? It can't be because of the incredible force we've got up against them...the Knights haven't bothered them before...

Rwos: We're close now.

-----------

Coruscant, Lower Levels

*The vehicles finally stop, deep inside Coruscant's structure. The vampires were nervous, muttering about the things of the abyss that could be creeping around them right at that moment...as well as the terrible feeling of being crushed brought on by the tight spaces and the knowledge that they had miles and miles of duracrete above them. Only Kvana is unaffected by the atmosphere. He gets out of the speeder and climbs downwards onto some overturned rock building*

Kvana: Yes, there are incredible things down here...and we are here for one of them.

*Kvana crouches and wipes away a thick curtain of webs and dust of eons to reveal a small, round plate. The vampires' enhanced vision let them see, even with the absolute darkness only pierced by their dim glowrods, that the structure showed a carving of the sun.*

Kvana: This is what we are here for.

Vampire: But how did you...what will we do with that?

*Kvana attempts to pick the plate up. It doesn't move. Kvana brushes more dust away, revealing the plate to be attached to a larger, hidden structure*

Kvana: You will see.

*Kvana opens the spellbook*

*Sir'din notices he has interceptors inbound.*

Sir'Din: "Well I'm not going to need this for very long..."

*Sir'din tears open a control box, crosses a few wires, and the engines fire up about an extra 20% then maximum. Warning signals begin to sound about possible engine failure, which would otherwise mean the fighter would blow soon.*

Sir'Din: 'Got to hurry.'

*Sir'Din pulls out a control pad and he presses a few buttons, a small freighter powers up and fly from behind an asteroid, and flys along side the fighter. Sir'din exhales all the oxygen in his system and blows the hatch, as he floats to an open port on the freighter. The air lock seals and Oxygen fills the room. The freighter on auto pilot breaks off into hyperspace. While the fighter explodes.*

*The fighters and retrieval squad report back to Starr*

Starr: Continue to pursue him. You know what to do...

*Two TIE Defenders and a transport enter hyperspace, tracking the escaping freighter*

*vertmor and sertmor gather a large sum of humans, gaged and blind folded, unconscious...*

Vertmor: *whisper to Kvana* "Where do you want the humans I believe we have a suffcant amount"

[edit]
*Vertmor and Sertmor Gather a particularly large sum of humans, gaged and blind folded.*

Vertmor: *attempts to use a comm to contact Kvana* "We have gathered a large sum of humans. We'll turn them as soon as possible, particularly all at the same time. I think the rush of magic might be useful."

*Over Comm: "Hello? Um, I think you have the wrong channel... um, sir..."*

Vertmor: "Oh yes, appologises. Ignore what you heard..." *Changes to 'proper' channel* "Kvana you there? I think I'm having some wha tis called 'culture shock' It seems rather unplesant."

((Tries to put in a little teh funnah ^_^))

((Actually a whisper is when a vampire speaks softly then 'transmits' it via telepathy. But I think your right, Kvana might be out of range... wait a min, they are in Coruscant, why waste their time trying to communicate primitively (well not really) they can be using more modern technology ^_^))

((OOS: I think Kvana is out of "whisper-range"...unless you mean something by that which you haven't explained yet...is it a form of telepathy?

Also, remember Kvana just wanted humans so they could be turned into vampires...to power the spell))

*Kioet enters the decontamination room*

Deac: Don't worry about Lokpihet. We'd better keep going, we're almost there...

Kvana: *in comm* No. The time is drawing near too quickly. Start turning the ones you have as quickly as possible. And continue to gather more, if possible. It matters little whether you are seen, now...

Fortunately, unlike my kind, theirs need little time for the turning to take place.

*Kvana reads from the spellbook, which begins to glow*

Impera subleva, refectia. Tower of Light, I command you, rise from the dust and stand tall!

*A glowing ring of light surrounds Kvana. Another forms around him, then another, then another*

Impera subleva, impera subleva, admove hemus! By the power of this Book, I bid you rise!

*A red, glowing beam of light shoots up from the symbol of the sun, and up and up, piercing through the duracrete levels of Coruscant and bursting through the surface. The beam steadily expands, covering block after block in its hellish radiance.*

Kvana: I bid you RISE!

*The ground moves, then heaves. The vampires rocket upwards at incredible speed, carried on some immense object....building? racing for the surface. Kvana stands still, eyes shut, in the center of it all, the rings orbiting around him, and the symbol beneath him eerily lit*

Vertmor: "Fine then." *turns off comm* "Alright let do this thing..."

*Hordes of vampires begin to turn that mass amount of humans. Vertmor does not participate, but he watches the scene, making sure his children do not get killed by any intruders, if they come around...*

[This isn't really in my hands, the bad guys are your characters]

*The Remenants of Lokpihet leap on Deac and try to choke him. Deac kicks it off and ignites his sabers*

Deac: Go ahead. I'll be right along...

*Tojo is handing out orders to his commanders, giving them assignments across Imperial space.*

The Ess Pire shall be escorted by the Fade to Kuat for a shake down and refit, and the Venegence and her support fleet shall stay here and mop up. any question? *none were asked* Dissmissed.

*His officers walked off, headed to shuttles to take them to there command ships. He contacted his Helm officer though the com link*
Full speed to the Imperial Center.

*With that, the Titan lept into hyperspace.*

*Sir'din regains consciousness, coughing and weak.*

*Computer Voice* "Commander, current situation: Hyperspace, following reprogrammed route: Coruscant."

Sir'Din: "Comp..." *cough* "...computer, are you tracking any hostile spacecraft?"

*Sir'Din stands up.*

*Computer voice* "Positive hostile forces detected..."

Sir'Din: "Have you made any attempts to lose them?"

*Computer voice* "Negitive."

Sir'Din: "Alright, I'm heading to the bridge."

((Ya, but BD's got Lelan. I was kinda stalling for him to post.

Scar, what are you talking about. You can't detect hostile forces via hyperspace...at least I don't think so...*muddled and confused at the moment*))

Coruscant Streets

*Rwos stares at the immense red-glowing beam of light extending into the sky in the distance*

Rwos: What in...

Gilian: *eyes widening* It's in the center of the pattern. *Showing the scanner, with red dots representing vampires* The groups are converging on this spot. Some are surrouding it, creating a perimeter, others are simple moving around it...

*The ground begins to shake*

Rwos: *to Gilian* Do you sense that? *calls back* Deac, hurry! *to the others* We had better go...

----------

Coruscant, Tower

*The object Kvana and the other vampires were riding on finally began to slow. It bursts through the surface of Coruscant, the aura around it dissolving the surrounding buildings like so much mist. The object keeps moving up, up and up, and finally stops, with the ground far below.

The vampires could now see that they were in a sort of platform, in the top section of an immense tower. A stylized symbol of the sun was carved on all four sides. The tower extended down and stopped in the center of a immense courtyard. The red light dissipates.

Kvana looks down and smiles*

*Deac uses the force to raise a barrier between him and the Remains*

Deac: That'll hold you a while

*Runs after Rwos and others*

((well I can say two things: One if the computer was programmed to detect anythign following it to be hostile, it would. But in a case where something is traveling too fast to detect something traveling behind you in hyperspace, it would be as well difficult to 'chase' after one that when into hyperspace well before an intercept craft could be sent to track it...))

((OOS: I just don't remember if it's possible. Can someone (BD?) clear this up?

And as for chasing well it's called a tracking device.

Stoopid forums being down for so long.))

Coruscant

*Kvana descends the tower*

Kvana: *loudly, to the surrounding, stunned vampire crowd* This is the first step of our rising!

Random vampire: *seeing Kvana* You! What are you going to do with that?

Kvana: Soon the galaxy will fall to darkness. The shadows will take everything, and we will be at the forefront of the new age.

Vampire: But what are you going to do?

*Kvana tells them. Silence falls*


*Rwos and the others reach an opening in the buildings. They are given a clear view of the tower, and the vampires surrounding it like ants, up ahead*

*Deac's face turns white*

Deac: Great...um...hold on...

*Deac clicks his neck. His cyborg brain begins to whirr. The whiteness then drains*

I just hope they don't like the way I taste...

*Ignites Sabers*

*Gilian looks at Deac* I wouldn't be worried. Your blood's really diluted for your body - your scent won't exactly be screaming "delicacy". *looks back to the tower in the distance* This is their mass gathering alright. I don't like the looks of that tower...

Rwos: Magic power. Incredible amounts of it. Here? How could I have missed this before? Something's not right...

*A vampire leaps out of the shadows. Gilian promptly beheads it. It explodes into dust*

Gilian: We need to get closer. And fast, before more of them notice us. *She points to Kvana, although only Rwos can immediately see him because of the distance. The others just see a figure in a cloak standing on a platform above the rest* That's one of the leaders. Looks like he's orating. We need to hear what's going on. And we can't just fight our way through - too many of them.

Rwos: Won't we stick out a bit much in that crowd? Especially since our scent shows us up as living beings. Most of us, anyway.

Gilian: No. Look how many of them are carrying unconscious living beings...looks like a mass vampire-turning. One or three more mortal scents in that crowd isn't going to raise any alarms.

*Deac begins barging through the indignant vampires*

Deac: Yeah, I want into the same evil um...cousin Syrnl had! Yes...

*High above Deac and co., the red glow from vampiric eyes watches the small group in the dark. He steps out pulls his demonic sword out.*

Vertmor: *loud enough for Deac an co. to hear* "Mortals, such weak creatures, I'm afraid that the 'gifts' of the undead are only resurved to 'certain' crowds..."

*A horde of vampires leaps up behind the grinning Vertmor.*

Vertmor: "I want them alive, kicking, preferably screaming..." *Riases sword to 'hold' position, til he lowers it*

((Sorry guys, been offline. Got a great plot twist though.

Oh and Scar Hyperspace is another dimension, thinbk of it like every ship creates a black hole then jumps in.

All jumps are preprgrammed.

Once in hyperspace you can't change course and if you over shoot your exit your stuck.

Tracking is impossible however it is possible to calculate where a ship is headed by its entry vector, since all courses must be linear.))

Flax: You vampires are always so cocky. Drago, show him.

Drago: With pleasure, Sire.

*Drago swings his longsword, killing one vamp, he then reverses and stabs another. Then, with incredible strength he rips a vampire haert out. As Drago holds the heart it begins to beat, then the vampire crumples and the heart dies again.*

*Drago steps back.*

-------------------------

*above, in the inhabited levels Lelan senses what Kvana is about to do.*

-------------------------

*Close to Lelan a man appears, out of the ether, he is dressed in white and he4 in unarmed.*

--------------------------

Flax: Back, set up the repeaters!

*The warriors fall back and set up the repeater blasters, as well as flanking and rear shields.*

*The Titan drops out of Hyperspace, Coruscant in full view.*

Helm, high orbit we don;t want to start another war. Alert the Emperor of our arrival. i assume he'll want to talk to the Republic.

If there still alive.....

((No, you can't get stuck in hyperspace...everything I've seen indicates that you can just turn off the engines and drop out...or get to close to a gravity well and do the same.

Thanks for clearing up the tracking thing.

Great plot twist? Is it the kind that I should be putting off cliffhanger-RPG-ending-ness for? ^.^

Oh, one more important thing: The tower has risen to the inhabited levels - it isn't underground at all. It's sticking up into the sky as tall as Coruscant's highest buidings. Right in public view))



*Starr enters the room* Don't call me Emperor. That is still my master's title. Contact Flax, if you can...

----------

Kvana: Ah, the vampire hunter Drago. I see you're as showy as ever.

*Kvana opens another spellbook dramatically, playing to the vampire crowd*

Kvana: Luckily I have just the spell for you. *Kvana lifts the book high and shouts* Chains of earth, wrap this mortal in your grasp!

*Streaks of light rip from the book towards Drago. They pass through him and into the duracrete below his feet. The duracrete animates, and chain shapes shoot up from it and wrap around him. Vampires rush towards him en masse and swarm him. Kvana sets down the spellbook and picks up another. He looks over at Flax' warriors*

Kvana: Congelo sphaera.

*A circle of freezing light rises from the book, expanding as it got higher, and forming into a sphere. Kvana directs it with his hand over the Knights, then inverts his hand. The gigantic sphere drops, shattering and freezing everything that remained under it in ice.

Kvana looks upward. Dawn is nearing*

Kvana: *holding the book he'd conjured the freezing sphere from* Major adumbro eliciolicitum. For the area and length of my will, let all of my kind walk in a shadow world.

*The book begins to spark, and yellow lightning runs across it. Kvana could sense he was close to overloading the book's power.

But that was all right. The spell, which would protect all vampires within a certain radius from the sun's deadly light when dawn came, was only needed for a short time. After that it wouldn't matter.

The sun peeks over the horizon. Kvana stares into it*

Rwos: The vampires here outnumber us at least a hundred to one. *looks around at the people filling the streets around them, gazing at the highly-out-of-place glowing tower in shock and surprise* Damn! Civilian casualties are about to become a very big problem!

Gilian: Dawn is here. They should be...*seeing what Kvana is doing* What?

*As the sun rises further, shadows mysteriously descend across all the vampires. Gilian looks surprised as a shadow falls over her as well, not touching either the ground or her companions*

Vertmor: "Ah, my children's protection from the morning sun... Brace yourselves mortals!!"

*Vertmor begins to lower the Reaver, but stops only a small portion of he way, he begins to look around almost 'looking' for something that isn't there...*

Vertmor: *softly* "Something very evil lurks near... Not our kind..." *snifs air* "Mortal!? Most likey from all these turnings..."

------


*High above wating the situation from afar, watches the situation while preforming his little floating trick, Fused Irvine waits...*

*Flax looks at the frozen soldiers, some were protected by the shields, however 30 lay dead.*

Flax: *growl.* We won't be out numbered for long. *Flax gestures and the remaining warriors jump off the building, as soon as they clear the wall they open parashoots and float away.* Even now the Armies of Agumar are surrounding this structure, as to magic, well; how about this?

*Flax gestures and the chains around Drago burn away. Then Flax makes a fist. When he opens his hand it releaces a force energy ball, he flings this at the Vampires, it expands, drawing energy from the very fabric of their bodies. By the time it dissipates 40 vampires are less than dust.*

((Red, you can drop out when ever but if you overshoot the preprogrammed exit your stuck. Also this is going to get bloodier, so feel free people. As to my plot twist, well its not that good.))

*Lelan and the Vampires with her make their way to the tower, they arrive just in time to see the energy ball dissipate.*

*Tojo nodded to the comm, and the comm began to attempt to contact Flax*

*Flax' Comlink beeps.*

Flax: *Irritated* This had better be good!

Com: Sir, priority A1 meesage, Imperial channel.

Flax: Okay, put it through. *To group.* Excuse me.

*Jumps off building.*

Deac: Now what are we supposed to do?

*Switches to defensive posture*

*Flax spreads his legs and arms to stop himself from tumbling, then he pulls out his comlink.*

Flax: Yes?

Vertmor: "Aw, hell..." *Lowers reaver* "Get em."

*A very decent number for Vertmor's Horde, jumps from the balcony and encircles Deac, and those around him.*

-----------

*Sir'din goes to the bridge.*

Sir'Din: "You have been following the planned course correct?"

Computer voice: "Positive commander."

Sir'Din: "Good, jump out of hyper space, and rejump and head for the rendezvous point before any Imperial ships arrive..."

*The ship jumps out of Hyperspace, then changes direction, and then rejumps for the Inner Rim.*

((been wanting to do this, but like Cracken's map (which I used) the quality is teh crap :)

but, It shows the planets I want in there for my peoples, and even a nice name (that I randomly thought of... *shurg*)))

Comm Officer: Good day. Please hold for teh Hier to the EMpire, Starr Hailfire.

Chavo: So, where are we going?

((Sry JM, almost forgot about that portion of the rpg ^_^

Solution: make more characters jm! ^_^))

RH Irvine: "Back to Duriel. They'll get you outfitted for what ever position your most likey going to be assigned to. As for me and Kur, we are going to go to Chi and make our report."

*The ship breaks from hyper space. Entering the Duriel System, a 7 planet system, with 2 habitable planets, Planet Duriel beign the capital planet.*

((o.O? BD: Where was the stuck in hyperspace clause mentioned in any SW literature? Cuz I totally can't remember anything like it.

Waitasec...burning up 40 vampires by drawing from the fabric from their bodies...what's the Force power for that? Sounds awfully like when Scar's own uber 'Jedi' combusted your Knights and you called it godmode...^.^

Also note I intended that your knights could get out of the way of the iceball...hence me not listing casualties...

Lastly: I don't remember Flax' military ranking, so I'm ad-libbing :D))


Starr: Admiral Flax? *hears the sounds of battle* ...Is this a bad time?

----------

*More chains of duracrete spring up as fast as the others were burnt away. Rwos cuts them with his lightsword before they can spring up fully, grabbing Drago*

Rwos: Behind these buildings. The vampire mage can't cast his spells at us if we're out of his sight, at least not from that distance.

*Vampires spill into the sidestreets after them, heedless of the danger of running blindly into an enemies' postion. The vampires are outmatched one-on-one, but keep coming like ants.

Gilian, having gotten further back from the others, stabs her opponent viciously in the stomach, rather than going for a killing blow. She then clubs the vampire's head, then drags him, doubled over in pain, through the door or an emptied restaurant. She shoves him against a wall, dagger to his eye*

Gilian: Your leaders are planning something big. You're going to tell me what that is, or I'll put this blade through your skull.

*Another vampire bursts in the door behind them. Gilian whacks his head off before even turning around. The wounded vampire struggles to get away*

Vampire: Filthy, human filth...we'll wipe you all out...there's nothing you can do to stop it...

*Gilian stabs the dagger into the vampire's eye. The vampire screams in pain*

Gilian: Want to keep your other eye? Better start saying what I want to hear, fast.

*The vampire gasps in pain. Gilian brings the tip of the dagger within centimeters of his other eye, touching the eyelid*

Vampire: W-w-wait! He's---they're---will---going to turn---going to...

Gilian: Going to turn? Turn what? How?

Vampire: K-k-vana...going to turn out the...

*Gilian presses closer*

Vampire: ...Going to turn out the suns...forever.

*The vampire grins through his pain. Gilian stabs him in the heart with a stake. His body transforms to dust, the unleashed energy obliterating his organic clothing with him*

*Three Vampires sneek up on Rwos just after he killed he vampire, they grab his arms and legs, and begin to bind them with police style hand cuffs, considering a logal regement was 'turned'...*

-------

*Nearly a dozen vampires begin to creep up on Flax, keeping hidden from him....*

((Scar, that maps wrong. Some of those Imperial worlds are owned by the Republic. Cracken, have you been conquering on the sly?

Redwing, in Planet of Twighlight 3PO and R2 get captured by a smuggler and then R2 rigs the navcom while they're in transit. He has to let them go or they're all stuck for good.))

Flax: *Pulls rip cord.* It could be better, and its General, not Admiral. We currently have something of a situation here so please be brief.

*>1,500 warriors mass around the Vampires. Ready to attack. However they hold, content to trap the enemy.*

*Deac' Comlink beeps.*

Hal: Sir, you'd better get clear. We're proton bombing in 2 minutes.*

*Deac leaps in the air, and lands behind his makeshift wall. Unfortunately Lokpihet's remains are waiting for him*

Remains: Thought...you could get away.

*Lokpihet sets the rest of the road on fire*

This ends here.

*The remains charge at Deac, who blocks, only to find the remains are resistant to lightsabers*

((BD: In the Ambush at Corellia didn't Han Solo debate about whether or not to drop out of hyperspace a little before or after the programed exit point.

I do know that if an object is released into hyperspace without a hyperdrive then it is stuck))

((OOS:No, not that i know of.... meh. it's just a reference map anyway. so it's a little eh. ^_^))

Tactical: Sirs, should we launch support fighter to assist?

Tojo:Go ahead, but i doubt it will work. Have them try to clear the area around the General. do NOT KILL the General or any of his allies.

Tactical: yessir. *The tac. officer keys the ship comm* All hands, prepare for combat, this is not a drill, i repeat, this is NOT a drill. All pilots to your fighters.

*From the belly of the masive ship, Tie Defenders pour out, and streak toward Coruscant. The CAG boardcasts a signla to teh New Republic*

CAG:New Republic, please open sections of the planitary shield for the incoming fighters to assist General Flax.

((BD: When did sixty warriors multiply to around 1500? Did i miss something? o.O

Also, just a warning: don't immediately post the effects the attacks have, desire for a bloodbath effect notwithstanding... expect the unexpected ^_~

And: What Admiral said))



Starr: My apologies General. I need to find your associate, the extradimensional being Termand Rwos; I require his assistance in an extremely important matter. Also, I am somewhat advised of your situation...be aware we will offer any help you wish us to.

----------

*Kvana looks at the sky. Soon, he sensed, the mortals would bring in their death-raining machines. This presented a danger, even though he had magic protection fields shielding the tower and the vampires in the courtyard; for energy was energy, and their "turbolasers" or "proton bombs" would eventually eat their way through.

This wouldn't be a problem at first, only when the spell he was preparing required his full attention. He hoped they would strike now, rather than wait. If they did...they would have quite an interesting surprise.

Kvana, overlooking the vital courtyard below, begins to cast the sanctuary spells needed for its protection*

----------

Damn. Keep forgetting that vampires can move in dead silence.

*Rwos, growling, strains and snaps the binders. Luckily the vampires had never dealt with gargoyle strength. He bats the first vampire away, and begins fighting the other two*

((Yes Redwing, about 4 pages back I introduced my army.

As to hyperspace, you can drop out early, but NOT late. Early is fine. Late is fatal. Although when a ship is yanked out it does damage the drive. It happens more than 5 times and you're looking at a definite field repair.))

Flax: Starr, we can handle it, the offer is appriciated.

((*Gets too confused with everything here and goes to look up info*

From TFN's technical commentaries on hyperspace (http://www.theforce.net/swtc/hyperspace.html):

Ships destroyed in hyperspace are never known to return their debris to realspace, and ships which experience accidents while jumping in or out tend to leave very little wreckage. According to Major Sil Sorannan, who once worked for a military research team in experimental hyperphysics, objects released in hyperspace always remain in hyperspace. To return from hyperspace requires the use of a hyperdrive. This makes perfect sense in terms of the tachyonic view of hyperspace and superluminal travel elucidated above.

(...)

Once in hyperspace, and object remains free in hyperspace. Collisions or anything else which causes it to lose energy will simply cause it to move faster. The action of a hyperdrive is required to make the jump back to realspace.

It kinda seems like missing your exit point is insignificant, it's whether or not you have a working hyperdrive...that would explain both references quoted here nicely.

Also from the description of Hyperspace Orbiting Scanners I gather hyperspace tracking isn't impossible, just practically impossible.

Another interesting thing:

Experienced hyperspace scouts may have a limited skill in interpreting the swirls of hyperspace in terms of realspace star clusters and nebulae. Thus with good reflexes and good luck new jump routes can be safely explored. It was in this way that young sibling scouts Gav and Jori Daragon accidentally discovered a fast route between the known worlds of the Old Republic and the isolated Sith Empire. Manual hyperspace scouting is extremely dangerous and is usually performed by inexpensive probe droids rather than crewed vessels.


So not all jumps are preprogrammed; manual piloting is possible. But apparently you need special skills to do that.

Really interesting stuff :)

About army; ah, forgot I guess - however the number of vampires still outnumber them. The "courtyard" of the tower is big enough to comfortably hold half a million...why this is necessary will rapidly become clear if it hasn't already ;)))



Starr: Fighters have already been sent. Of course, if you really do not wish our help, you are free to refuse. If it is worry about security surrounding your 'vampire' problem which motivates it, however, you needn't be concerned...

*The group of Vampires pounce on Flax, whom was slight busy talking to Starr over the comm, they mug him, bind him, and strike a good decent blow on Flax's neck in attempt to Knock em out.*

Vampire: *snatching Comm* "I Don't think you need this..." *breaks the comm with one hand.*

-------------

*The vampies attempt to hold of Rwos, when Vertmor walks up behind.*

Vertmor: *With a glow red Reaver in hand* "I'll take over" *To Rwos* "I fought agenst more powerful beings like yourself, and I never had this weapon bestowed in my hands." *Grins while the Reaver starts to hum in with inticipation....*

Chavo: You got any idea what they'll assign me to?

RH Irvine: "Not sure, but most likey where ever you was doing outside of our nation"

Rwos: *breaking the neck of the vampire holding him, paralyzing it* You flatter me. *ignites lightsword, beheading the third vampire in the process*

((OOS:shall i assume the shield was lowered....?))

*As Deac and The Remains fight, who should appear but*

Remains: ...Orthos my waste of a brother. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for you.

Orthos: You can't beat 2 on 1. Not when I have this...

*Orthos reveals Lokpihet's dagger, his prized weapon given to him at his birth*

I'm gonna give you a chance to go back because you were once my brother

*In a rapid manuever, Deac is knocked back into the wall by powerful dark energy. The remains leap on Orthos and begin to throttle him*

Remains: You are no brother of mine....

*It grabs the dagger from Orthos hand, and stabs it into his chest*

Deac: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

*The Remains turn to face Deac*

You should not have done that...

*Charges at Remains...
