Raven wiped the blood off his sword as Daynael and another guy, that Raven hadn?t noticed until then, took out the last of the warriors. Raven went through the blood stained path until he found his knife and his other sword, and after wiping off the blood sheathed them both. Raven turned to the two strangers that had entered the battle. Raven didn't recognize the one that had helped Daynael, but the other one seemed oddly familiar. He looked like a dragonman at first glance, but with more inspection seemed more like a cross between a dragonman and an angel. Raven turned away from the creature. Just looking at him gave Raven chills. Then Raven remembered. The dream, that was the figure in the dream.
----------------------------------------------------------
Achan pulled his axe out of a fallen warrior?s back as one of the travelers seemed to go suddenly berserk, killing everyone in sight. "Impressive." Achan muttered under his breath. As the berserker was finishing off the last of the warriors another person joined the fight, managing to get the last kill. Achan hung his axe at his side and approached the group, but remained silent.
--------------------------------------------------
Gabriel lay in the pool of blood surrounded by fallen warriors. His wing bled viciously as the other half of it lay a few yards away. Gabriel just staired straight up. All he could see was the figure that had protected him. The image kept running through his mind. At first Gabriel had thought him to be a dragonman, but then he had gotten a clear look at the strange warrior. He was in fact a fallen angel, although Gabriel couldn't fathom his purpose.
"BE AT PEACE GABRIEL. I AM IN CONTROL."
"Thank you, Lord." Gabriel whispered as he got up, blood dripping from his once white robe. He walked over where the group was gathering, noticing another for the first time. With each step, the pain from his wing increased. It would be a wound that would never heal, but there were more pressing matters at hand the Gabriel?s sudden loss of flight.

Logan grunted at the man's statement. Confidence was necessary during battle in order to remain focused and not be overwhelmed by the thought of injury or death. Overconfidence, however, could get a person killed. "My name is Logan." he said, folding his arms across his chest. "And who might you be?"

Singing Elk settled next to the patient again to await her awakening. She didn't know how the wounded Dragomen would respond.

"I am Daynael and this is Miri, my better half." Daynael said as he pulled Miri closer "Much better half that is." Miri joked, "And what was that, Daynael, are you trying to get your self killed if it weren't for this nice man you might be dead now." Just then Daynael noticed Gabriel limping toward the group, he ran over to him to give him a hand. "Your wing," Daynael siad "It is missing, let me try to heal it for you, I am not sure if I can bring it back but the lest I could do is heal the wound it left."

Kirret shrieked as an arrow came zooming past her left ear. just missed by millimeters! she thought. She heard a low chuckle and spun around, only to come face to face with a smelly, leering, unshaven man. This has got to be one of those cursed Bandits that was in the pass - he snuck around behind us! Oh darnit, what next?
Kirret didn't get much of a chance to think. Indeed, Kirret didn't get much of a chance to do anything. She had enough time to think sheesh that guy needs to use a toothbrush before she was roughly picked up, slung over the bandit's broad shoulder, and secured there with his hands. Behind him, the archer that had shot the arrow stood grinning. He thought this was an easy win. Kirret thought he was right.
This didn't prevent Kirret from screaming, kicking, pounding her fist, and doing her best to annoy and irritate her captor long enough that he would release her and she could run.

Vancile still had an arrow nocked. All members of the group were accounted for, but there were two extra. Until Vancile found out if these people were on the exact plane of thought as the group (being, ppl trying to kill Vancile and Co. = not good), then he was jolly well going to keep an arrow pointing at the closest one's chest.

Aethelind was jarred awake by the smell of danger and a scream. She opened her eyes groggily and jumped up immediately to find herself in the midst of several strangers and the two bandits who had shot her. Thoughts were rushing through her head at a million miles a minute. Who are these people? Why are the bandits here? Why didn't this group kill me? Where is my sword? Who healed me? She saw the elf draw his bow. Before anyone even knew she was awake, she jumped up, grabbed the bow from the elf, turned and knocked down the bandit with the bow, put her arrow to his throat, and growled "Care to shoot me again, Drayken?" And then the other bandit began to run, the young human draped across his shoulders screaming. Aethelind cursed under her breath.

Mikah gasped and leapt backwards as the fallen dragoman jumped up. Before Mikah could react further, the dragoman had grasped Rovanties' bow and arrow and was pointing it at one of the bandits. Unfortunately, at that moment, the myth that there was indeed honor among thieves was put to the test and failed, as the other bandit proceeded to run for his life, leaving his partner with a drawn bow and arrow pointed at his throat.

But Mikah had other things to worry about than the captured bandit and the suddenly revived dragoman. The other bandit was getting away with Kirret draped over his shoulder. Oh no, you don't! Mikah thought as she grasped her crossbow, loading it with one of her arrows. Bringing it up to her shoulder, she sighted down the arrow's shaft, aiming for the bandit's opposite shoulderblade. She took a deep breath and let it out slowly, steadying her crossbow and squeezing the trigger. The arrow flew from the crossbow and landed in the bandit's shoulder, causing him to cry out and stumble. Mikah knew his arm was already going numb. The poison in her arrows was quite deadly to most creatures. Humans of this bandit's size, however, were usually only rendered unconscious from the first arrow. He fell to the ground a moment later, dropping a struggling Kirret unceremoniously on the ground with a "thud". Mikah sprinted over to her. "Are you all right?"

Logan noticed one of the group had his bow and arrow pointed at Logan's chest, but wasn't concerned. If they had wanted to kill him they probably would have done so already. He watched as Daynael proceeded to heal the angel's wing. He couldn't help feeling badly for the angel. Just looking at the stump of a wing made Logan's own wings quiver. The tragedy of being a flying creature no longer able to fly was a curse that Logan desperately hoped he would never have to endure. The angel would need rest. Logan addressed Miri as Daynael worked."There's a cottage not far from here where I've been staying for the past couple of days. It's not much, but it is easy to defend and you can at least get some food. That is...." Logan turned to the man with the bow and arrow, looking him up and down with one eyebrow raised. "Unless you'd rather shoot me."

"Thank you," Miri answered "But it realy isn't up to me, it would up to our group leaders." Daynael had finnished doing what he could with Gabriel. Daynael has the ability to regnerate small limbs but has never tried anything so large, all he could acomplish was healing the wound and stopping the bleeding and the pain some what. "Can you continue?" He asked Gabriel. Daynael was still concerned about the angel, he had thought that angel's couldn't be killed, but after seeing this he knows that isn't the case the here, but what is different about this one. Daynael has seen Angelman get injured in the past in different battles he has been in and they always managed to heal themselves rather quickly and the only time he has seen them die was if decapatated.
