View Full Version : Forever Fallin RP
"It was a cold night, the heavy rain prevented me from sleeping. So I sat there, alone, on the floor. Memories still haunt me of the night my parents were murdered. I still remember his face, a tall dark man. He left me there alone, with my parents' bloody bodies on the kitchen floor. The only thing I knew to do was to call my Grandparents. I lived with them for 13 more years and since then I have just lived life my way...."
"Can't sleep." Leo mumbled to himself.
"Why do these nightmares still haunt me? It happened so long ago."
His meditation was broken by the obnoxious sounds of fighting cats in the alley way.
Leo slowly walked out of his room and sat at the kitchen table.
"My thoughts...the bloody memories of that night. That is what haunted me, and that is what made me who I am today. I know he is still alive, I just know it."
Alkorr sat in the booth, finishing up an ale. He closed his trench coat tighter, concealing his weapons. A young waitress walked up to him. "Is that all... Excuse me, sir."
"Oh, yeah... that'll be it" he spoke, startled by the girl. He payed her nervously, and walked out into the rain.
The ominous black clouds sweltered above, raining down their sorrows upon Middle Earth. Alkorr pulled his coat tighter around his waist, trying to appear inconspicuous. He walked under the street light and waited for the arrival. It came.
A black sedan pulled up by the bank. A portly man opened the driver side door, and slipped out. He walked to the glass doors and put his hand on the small silver handle. Alkorr quickly opened his coat to reveal his weapon, unholstered it and fired a quick shot across the intersection. The obese man fell on the ground in his own blood.
The rain slowly washed it away, and the blood poured into a nearby gutter.
Another assassination had succeeded. Alkorr drifted back into the shadows, seeing many a bystander running to the dead body.
"The cold night eventually passed, but my thoughts...they did not. I sat outside of the apartment and watched the beautiful sun rise once again. Staring at the gorgeous morning sky always brought temporary relief."
Leo stood up and stretched. As he walked back into the trashy apartment the phone rang. He walked over and answered it...
"What?" he yelled loudly in the phone.
"Hey, its me."
"It was Les, the leader of Amin-Kree...a very unexpected phone call."
The light of the morning came as a relief.
Alkorr walked into an old tavern. Its sign bore the name, "The Wine Yard". Alkorr walked in to the noise of many talking patrons. A prostitute walked up to him, but he stepped past.
He sat on the only open stool. Its cushion was long gone, and its exposed wooden face was now rotting.
The seat was next to a rather large man. On his arm was the tattoo. Alkorr had seen it many times in the past. The jutted "K" and the crooked "A" was a symbol of a renowned gang, called Amin-Kree.
Alkorr tapped the man on the shoulder. The man turned to face him. His eyes were surrounded by black paint, smeared carelessly across his brow. He glared in hate at Alkorr.
"What do 'a want, and why the **** did you touch me?"
"I just noticed your tattoo." Alkorr replied, quickly.
"What is it to ya'?"
"Oh, nothin' at all. I just didn't expect someone from Amin-Kree here."
"Why is that?" The man yelled, standing to his feet.
"Hey, I don't want trouble, man. Back off!" Alkorr replied.
Alkorr turned to the bartender and spoke, "Wine, please."
"What kind d'ya want?" The bartender replied.
"Whatever you can have ready in under ten seconds."
"Okay. That'll be ten gold pieces." The bartender said.
Alkorr turned to the ominous man and spoke, "Nice chatting with you, but now I gotta run. Business, you know."
He took his glass, drank it down, and left without another word.
Alkorr strode down the old walkway. His boots thudded dully on the hard concreted ground. It was near winter, and the air nipped at his face. He walked into a garage. It was warm there, and it was thoroughly enjoyed.
He put his hand on the door to his vehicle. It was a black sports car, accented with mythril. He had bought it with the rewards of his last job. Now... pay wasn't as good. Economy was down, and the underground was hit hard. Profits were down. Alkorr was one of the few left. He was also one of the best.
He pulled out quickly and moved with the traffic. He drove for ten minutes to arrive at his house.
There it was... a shabby brick building. It was unkempt, and weeds grew plentifully. A few shingles had fallen off, but Alkorr hadn't taken the time to repair. He was too busy. Busy with life... with his work.
It was unusual for him to be at his home, but he was. He was drawn there for some reason. Alkorr walked in. He dropped his coat on the floor and looked around. Broken bottles of wine and various clothing lay scattered around.
Alkorr withdrew his rifle and set it onto a stand. He did the same with his jackhammer. He walked to the kitchen, and opened the refrigerator. It was full of wine and quick meals. He grabbed a roll and ate it quickly. Then he opened a bottle of wine. He drank a glass and fell on the couch, into a long, heavy sleep.
"Les...he had a job for me, a very important job for me. He told me of some elf that he wanted me to do. Probably money related I figured. I really gave second thought about quiting Amin-Kree, but I knew I wouldn't be happy doing anything else."
"One of my boys said that he hits the Wine Yard every monday night. It seems like a good place to do the job."
"Sounds good, I was lookin for some action this weekend. So tomorrow then..."
"Tomorrow night! Call me when its done!" CLICK
Leo stood there by the phone.
"Finally, things are starting to look up." he said to himself.
When he woke up, it was high noon. Alkorr fell off of the couch, and lay on the ground for a few minutes. Time passed by, but he lay unmoving.
Finally, he forced himself to get up. He walked slowly to the bathroom. His hair was heavily unkempt, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Alkorr washed his face, and then took a long, warm shower. He got out, feeling awake, finally.
After eating breakfast, he went out for a drive.
He knew not where he would go, but knew he was going somewhere. After getting his car refueled, he went back home. It was not time, yet.
He picked up the phone and called the man who had hired him, demanding his money.
The answer was always 'Later man. Just wait until things cool down.' It was getting too late. He owed Alkorr big time.
Alkorr slammed the phone down, and took up his gun. He tightened his trenchcoat and walked to the door.
"What am I doing?" Alkorr mumbled to himself. "There are too many of them. I am going to need help on this one. Lets see... Who in the world will want to help me out on this one?"
He dropped his gun, went back to the couch and slept. This wasn't the time. It would not come to pass for a while.
Leo walked over to the couch and sat down with a cold beer in his hand. "I think I will take a drive around town, I have nothing else to do." he muttered to himself.
He walked in to the car garage and sat down in his vehicle and thought for a moment.
"They were back, I couldn't get them out of my head."
He turned on the ignition and backed out of the large garage. Within a few moments he found himself parked in his girlfriends front yard.
"I knew she wasn't home, but her house...it always made me feel better. So I sat there, in my vehicle..."
He rose early the next morning, and was not tired any longer. He had slept for a long time. Alkorr stood up and took another shower.
He then cleaned the living room, throwing old clothes into a large trash bag. After compiling all of his clothing and leftover food together, he put the bag outside. The city workers would pick it up, and all Alkorr would have to do is buy some more things.
Alkorr stepped out into the bright morning light. The sun glared into his eyes. He put on a pair of sunglasses and pushed them up his nose. He was feeling well, and the sun only woke him more.
His rifle hung from an inside loop on his coat. He always had it with him, for it gave a sense of security.
Alkorr saw a boy riding along the sidewalk. He called him over.
"Hey, boy. If I give you 50 gold coins, will you mow my lawn?”
"Yes sir." the boy replied, with a smile on his face.
"Good. I'll pay ya' when you are done." Alkorr replied.
He jumped into his car, and took off, with the cool air conditioning blowing in his face.
The sky was a bright blue, and the few clouds scattering the heavens were a bright white. Weather would be good that day.
Alkorr pulled in front of an elegant house. It was his parents'. He set his gun under the back seat and took off his coat, revealing his white shirt, cut off at the sleeves. He combed his hair, and hopped out of the car.
Alkorr walked to the door. It had been a long time since he had seen his family. It would be a surprise to them, and a time of relaxing for him.
They had always respected him, and had always wanted to help. They had nothing to do with what had happened to him. He had brought it upon himself. They still loved him... he knew not how, though.
The door opened. The face of his mother poked out. A smile crept upon her face, and she stepped out. She embraced him. He did the same back.
"Alkorr! Why are you here?"
"I had nothing else to do, so I decided to stop by."
"It has been so long." she replied.
"Yes, it has. I am afraid I can't stay long."
"I see. Do be careful when you leave." she responded, unknowing of what trouble Alkorr was getting into.
"Where is my father?" Alkorr asked.
"Your father... He is gone." Her face turned pale. "He was killed."
"What? Who did it?" Alkorr gasped in a shock.
"I don't know, son." His mother replied, with sorrow.
Alkorr felt a deep sorrow, which he had never felt before. A tear fell from his face, onto his polished, black boot. He stepped back, and said to his mother, "I will find who did this."
"Alkorr, wait."
"No! Whoever did this will die!" he shouted.
Alkorr walked around the car and opened the door quickly. He put his gun in his lap. Then, he put his head on the steering wheel and wept.
Alkorr woke up. It was all a dream
"While I was sitting in my car...my mind drifted elsewhere. But this time it wasnt about my parents, I had flashbacks of an old friend. I remember when we used to wrestle with eachother outside. Those were the days...
Leo turned on the radio and backed out of the yard. As he was driving he decided to make a quick stop at the closest pawn and gun.
Leo stepped out of the car and rubbed his ciggerette on the soul of his shoe and threw it on the ground. As he entered the room, a feeling of relief came to him...maybe it was the guns.
He looked at the sawed off shotgun behind the glass.
"Its beautiful." He muttered to himself.
He slowly put his hand on the glass. Leo walked over to the man behind the counter and asked him.
"How much for that gun?" he asked as he pointed over to it.
"Um, that one is 20 silver, buddy. Yea, its a nice one." the portley man responded.
"I will take it!" He said as he reached for his wallet.
"Okay, as you know there is a three day background check."
"A three day background check? Hmmm....."
"Okay" Leo said happily.
"Just fill out these papers and we will contact you in a few days."
The man went in the back room and came out with a stack of papers.
"Here you go!" As he handed them to Leo.
Alkorr ran to the phone, and hastily dialed the number. It was busy... He threw on some clothes and ran out the door.
He drove hastily to his parents' home. He ran to the door, and knocked.
The door opened. The face of his mother poked out. A smile crept upon her face, and she stepped out. She embraced him. He did the same back.
"Alkorr! What a surprise. Your father has been wanting to see you." His mother said with a smile.
"He's okay?" Alkorr replied, very uneasily.
"Of course... Why?"
"Nothing... just a dream."
"Okay... Well then, why are we standing around here then? Come in!"
Alkorr followed his mother into the house. It was furnished beautifully, and the walls adorned a crimson red paint.
"It looks great, Mom. You did a great job on it."
"Why, thank you son."
They walked into the living room. There was Alkorr's father, sitting on the couch.
"Hello Dad. Good to see you."
He turned to Alkorr and smiled. "Son! What a surprise!" He exclaimed.
They spoke long about the times, but spoke nothing of Alkorr's job.
The clock struck noon.
"I have got to go." Alkorr said.
"Bye, son. It was nice seeing you. You will always be loved here." His father said, rather sadly.
Alkorr left.
Leo walked out of the door of the small pawn and gun.
"A three day background check!" he yelled out.
He got in his muddy vehicle and once again, returned to the apartment.
"The sun fell quickly. I was there....alone, of course."
It was the first night in thirteen years that Leo slept the whole night without being haunted by memories...
"It meant something was gonna happen....soon, I dont know what."
Leo woke up late in the afternoon, it was time to prepare for the job.
he opened the small safe in his closet and pulled out a knife and a small handgun.
"This should be enough." he mumbled.
Leo took the gun to the kitchen table and cleaned it well, for it had not been used in two or three months. And that is why it was so strange that Les called when he did.
After he was finished polishing his weapon he called his girlfriend, Alena. She was a beautiful nineteen year old. She cared for Leo, more than anything in the world, and lived a similar lifestyle.
It had been a while since they talked last.
"Alright, love ya!" CLICK
"The clock...it was starting to get late."
Leo decided to go ahead and take a ride until it was time to finish the job. He jumped in the vehicle and backed out of the car garage. He rolled down the windows and let the cold air blow past his face.
Alkorr drove home, and was about to pick up some money for buying lunch. He had a date today, with a girl he had only met once.
He pulled into his driveway. There was another car. It was an enforcer's.
"S***," he mumbled to himself, "Where will I go now?"
He backed out and drove north, stopping outside of the city at an Inn. It was nearly empty, and had many open rooms. Alkorr rented a cheap bed upstairs. He took everything in his car with him, including his rifle.
He suddenly remembered her. It was getting late.
Alkorr ran down the stairs, payed for his stay, and hopped into the car.
He picked up the woman and pulled into a garage next to the Wine Yard.
Alkorr was already sitting at the bar when Leo arrived. He entered with his hand in his coat and sat down beside Alkorr not realizing it was his childhood friend. The only friend he had besides his family.
The woman and Alkorr began talking.
Leo looked around for an elf but didn't see anyone who fit Les' description.
The bartender approached Leo.
"Would you like anything to drink, Leo?" he said helpfully.
"Give me something hard." He responded back, grinning.
Alkorr turned his head and examined Leo for a moment.
"Leo?" he asked.
"Yea, who are you?" he answered.
Before he could answer a tall pale elf walked through the door.
Leo took his attention of Alkorr and stared at the elf in suspicion. The elf walked over and leaned against the bar. He looked down over at Leo and grinned at him. Leo kept a straight face while examining the elf. Leo took out his notepad and matched the description...it wasn't him.
Leo got up and went over to the pool tables over in the corner of the bar and left Alkorr there with the woman. Within a few minutes Alkorr stood and approached Leo.
"You....look familiar! You said your name was Leo?"
"Um...yea. Are you here to kill me?" he asks humorously.
"No, its me...Alkorr."
"What? Alkorr?"
"Yea, remember?"
"Oh yea!" Leo said joyfully.
Leo threw down his pool stick and hugged his old friend.
"So, hows it been hangin?" Leo asks Alkorr loudly.
Before he could answer the woman at the bar walked over.
"Who is this?" She asked kindly.
"This is one of my old friends. His name is Leo."
"Hello, Leo." She said, leaning against Alkorr's side.
"Hello..." Leo said.
"Oh, yes... My name is Ara." The beautiful woman replied.
"Pleased to meet you, Ara."
Alkorr looked at Leo, and motioned towards an empty pool table.
"Wanna play a game?"
"Sure!"
The three walked over to the empty table. It was made of fine oak wood, and the surface was very well cared for.
After shooting a game, Alkorr got everyone drinks.
"Hey, Ara, want me to teach you how to play pool?" asked Alkorr.
"Sure." The woman said, hopping up to her feet and grabbing a pool stick.
"Good. I'll show you later." Alkorr replied.
They sat down at a table and talked while Leo still kept an eye out for the elf. Still no sign of him.
Leo told Alkorr about his recent jobs with Amin-Kree as well as his thoughts about quitting.
"Excuse me for a second, guys." Leo said to them.
He walked out side and reached into his coat pocket and pulled out his cellphone. It ringed twice then Les answered.
"Yea?" Les yelled into the phone.
"Hey, its me...Leo."
"What do you want?"
"He's not here. I have been here all night and looked everywhere."
"Keep looking! Just keep lookin!" CLICK!
Leo walked back in and sat back down at the table. It was 3 O'clock when another elf entered the wooden doors. Except this time...it was the one.
Leo, without thinking, jumped out of his seat and pulled out his small handgun out of his coat and fired a bullet into the chest of the tall, pale elf.
The elf fell to the ground, gasping for air. The small bullet penetrated the left lung of the elf. Leo walked over and stared the elf in the eye.
One more shot entered the skull of the elf.
"I couldn't take it anymore....."
Leo stood there for a few moments and looked at the elf's lifeless body. He turned and ran out the door toward his vehicle. There was the sounds of sirens in the distance. Leo had to leave.
Alkorr followed Leo out to his vehicle.
"Wait, Leo!"
"Get in!"
Alkorr opened the back door and threw himself in as fast as he could.
"What about my car?" He asked.
"It will get impounded."
"but..."
Leo shoved the key in the ignition and twisted it. The car shot backwards from its parked position and shot out into the road. With a moment it was gone, having disappeared into the thick fog of the night.
Several enforcers pulled in the Wine Yard parking lot. But it was too late...
They drove quickly out of the lot, but slowed because of the thickness of the night's fog. Seeing the road was almost impossible.
"Leo, who was the elf?" Alkorr asked.
"I will tell you later." Leo responded, concentrating on the road ahead.
"Very well." Alkorr replied, slouching far back on his seat.
After a long pause, Alkorr asked, "Where are we going? Your Place?"
"Yeah. It is the only safe place I can think of, unless yours is..."
He was cut off by Alkorr.
"Nope. I saw an enforcer there the other day. He must've bugged the place."
"That is their way." Leo replied.
"Leo, who gave you that phone call? I know it had something to do with the elf. I know it. Who was it?" Alkorr queries.
"Les..."
"Les... Who is he?"
"Lester is the president of Amin-Kree."
"Oh... Him. I know him. He is an a**." Alkorr responded hatefully.
"Why'd ya say that?" Leo asked.
"He owes me.... bigtime. I have done a little 'work' for the man. He still hasn't payed for it."
The car stopped...
"We are here." Said Leo, shifting into park and stepping out of the car. Alkorr followed.
They went up to the 7th floor, and entered a 2 bedroom apartment.
"You can sleep on the couch," Leo spoke, motioning towards a leather sofa in the corner.
"Okay. Now will you tell me about the elf?"
"Its nothing, just a job. My last job actually." Leo responded.
"O, I see. So you quittin', man?"
"Um, Yea. Im just a little scared to hear what Les is gonna say."
Leo realized he was being short with Alkorr, he took a deep breath and swallowed. He sat down and told Alkorr about what has happened lately, and his future plans with his girlfriend.
"So, that about it." Leo finished.
"Hmm, life most be pretty hard on ya right now, isn't it?"
"Yea, it is. I can't stand it anymore."
"Hey, don't get stressed out. Sounds like its all going to get better soon, man."
"I guess your right."
"Another cold and rainy night. I slept...some. But morning came quickly. This is the day Im going to tell Les....Im done."
Alkorr woke late, to the sound of an alarm clock that had been beeping for half an hour. He stood up and stretched his arms out, taking in the moring sunlight from the open window.
The city was calm, and the fog of the night before was lifted. Leo was nowhere to be seen.
"He must be going to tell Lester." thought Alkorr.
It was so, for Leo had left just twenty minutes before Alkorr's waking.
Alkorr sat around the pleasant apartment for a few more hours, showering and eating, and finally left. His mind was set on one thing, a new car.
He walked out into the brisk afternoon air. The sun was only slightly warm, and a breeze blew his hair to the side.
He walked into a car dealership and saw a nice luxery sedan. He took it for a test drive. It handled beautifully. The wheels whisked lightly over the hard road, giving a remarkably comfertable ride.
He came back in, and after testing the car once again, bought it in cash.
The dealer gave him the papers, and Alkorr left.
*RECEIVED VEHICLE*
Leon arrived at the large warehouse, the hideout of Amin-Kree. It was located in the deserted section of Rohan, and was heavily guarded as well by several members of the gang. But since Leo was well known amongst Amin-Kree, they let him right in.
Lester's small office was located on the top floor of the warehouse, which would make for a difficult escape if Les blew a fuse.
"Oh well...I hope he doesn't get to angry." he muttered to himself.
He walked up the long flight of stairs and down the long corridor of the story. The warehouse had a horrible stinch. That of a carcus, a human carcus, that had obviously been there for days...a bullet wound to the head.
Leo kept walking and eventually came upon the office door of Lester. He could hear his loud mouth running...he was on the phone. Leo waited there by the door nervously. When he heard the phone click Leo walked in the door with his head down.
"Hey! Leo!" Lester yelled out.
"hey" he responded softly.
"Whats eatin you kid?!"
"Um...Les...I have to quit this, now."
"WHAT?! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!"
"Im sorry, I must. Its not the life I want to live anymore, man."
"So you quit us? Fine, we don't need you anyway. We have plenty of other heartless assassins here in the warehouse."
"That is good. I'm glad my leaving doesn't cause to much of a problem."
"Oh, It does. You don't quit us, kid!"
"I am sorry."
"You should be!"
"I am!"
"Leave me now, get out!"
Leo softly shut the door behind him and walked out of the warehouse, got in his vehicle and drove off fast leaving dust all in the air.
"Heartless assassins? It wasn't me, I wasn't heartless."
Alkorr drove quickly on the roads. He checked the braking and the acceleration. He then pulled over and checked the oil. Another new car... He still wanted his old one, though.
The car was very well built, and Alkorr found it flawless. He threw his rifle in the back seat and drove around some more, and finally drifted by an old warehouse.
"Amin Kree... Leo's in there. Good luck to him." Alkorr said, while releasing his foot from the accelerator.
Alkorr then decided to go to his house, and try to scavenge whatever was left. He pulled in front of the well-built brick home. The lights were off, and no car was to be seen in the drive. He pulled in and flicked off the lights of the car.
He walked to the door, and placed a small key in the lock. He turned it... there was a soft click as the door unlocked. He opened it. As he flicked the lights on, he saw a camera.
He cursed, ripping the videocamera out of the wall. There was bound to be more of them. Alkorr didn't care, for his goal now was to get as much ammunition as he could from his cabinet.
He ran out, jumped into his new luxury car, and sped off into the night. The enforcers arrived only seconds too late. He had gotten off of the hook... this time.
*RECEIVED AMMUNITION*
"Another night passed....I felt horrible all night, but I did the right thing."
Leo woke early that morning and sat on the couch waiting for the call. This was the third day of the background check...he would be getting the call any time.
It was about 3:00pm when the phone rang its same obnoxious ring. Leo rushed to the phone and stuck it up to his ear.
"What?" he yelled in the phone.
"Is this Leo Alexander?" the voice asked.
"Yes...it is." he swallowed.
"I was just calling to let you know that your background check was clear and that you need to come pick up your firearm within two days and bring your paper work."
"Okay, I will be there soon!" CLICK!
Leo ran out to his car and shoves the key in. He ripped out of the parking lot and into the streets. It wasn't too long before he arrived at the same pawn and gun that he was at three days ago.
He swallowed hard and ran into the building and walked over to the woman behind the counter.
"I am Leo Alexander, I am here to pick up my gun!"
"The shotgun?"
"Yes, the sawed-off shotgun!"
"Oh, okay. Hold on a minute."
She walked in the back room and came out with a long taped up box.
"Here you go!" She said nicely
"Thanks...very much!" Leo responded.
Leo took the box, handed here a check, and ran out to his car and stuck his new gun into the trunk of his car. He raced home, just slow enough not to get pulled over by an enforcer. Within fifteen minutes he was home and ripping the tape off of the box. He opened it, removed the styrofoam and held it tightly.
"I love it..." he muttered to himself.
He ran in his room and brought out a box of shells and loaded the weapon.
"I think I will call Alenna now." He said softly to himself.
He took out his cellphone from his coat pocked and dialed the numbers.
It rang about five times and no one answered.
"Strange...she told me she'd be home today."
He tried a few more times and realized that something was up. He hopped in his car and rode over to her house, which was just a few miles away.
He knocked on the door as he looked down and saw a small red peice of paper with the letters AK on the bottom corner.
"Amin-Kree...payback?" He asked himself.
He read the letter out loud to himself. It was Amin-Kree...they had kidnapped his girlfriend.
"The touched the only thing that was important to me...not a wise thing to do at this time. This had to be the main thing that drove me over the edge."
Leo's eyes turned red as he ran over to his car. As he was driving he called Alkorr on his cellphone and told him to meet him at his apartment. He arrived to see Alkorr's brand new vehicle in the parking place beside his. He rushed in to see Alkorr watching the television.
"C'mon! Lets go!" He yelled to him.
Alkorr pulled out his rifle from his coat and held it down.
"I am ready."
Leo walked over to the closet and pulled out his new shot-gun.
"I might need this!" he yells out.
They jumped in Leo's dirty vehicle and head toward the old warhouse...that is where they probably had her.
Alkorr pulled a bullet out of his coat.
"First person that I see, will get this." he said, loading his rifle.
As they neared the warehouse, Alkorr leaned out of the window. There was a guard, peering at the car as if trying to see who was the driver. Alkorr fired, sending the man sprawling on the ground in a pool of blood. Blood was splattered behind him... it gleamed in the early sunset.
They rocketed into the yard, and as Alkorr reloaded, an array of bullets peirced the back of the car. He leaned out and fired again, sending another of Amin Kree's guards to his death.
"Leo, It was nice knowing you." Alkorr said, placing another bullet shell in the rifle.
"No man, it's not over." Leo replied.
Leo slammed on his brakes and opened the door. He pulled out his new shotgun and held it tightly in front of him as he walked hastly toward the building.
"Hey, Leo!" Alkorr said as he was walking with Leo
"WHAT?!" He resonded with hate and death in his vioce.
"Never mind..."
The two walked over to the building and heard the sound of gunshot in the building.
"We are expected, we woud be foolish to go in through the front entrance." Alkorr said softly.
"Got any better ideas?!"
"No, not really."
Leo ran back toward his car and Alkorr followed. Alkorr just got in when Leo shoved his key in and took off toward the main entrance.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Alkorr yelled. "ARE YOU GONNA RUN INTO IT?"
"Actually...yes." Leo responded with a slight grin.
Within moments the car crashed into the front entrance, killing about four or five armed men at the door. The car raced through the bottom floor of the warhouse. Leo hit the brakes and jumped out of the car, blasting a few of the men that were running toward them. Leo ran over and picked up one of the assualt rifles that the guard had.
"This could come in handy."
*Recieved Assault Rifle*
Alkorr picked up another one of the rifles. He took 4 clips from the fallen guards and split them between Leo and himself. They slowly moved forward, watching every corner.
Interference was ineffective, and at every ambush, the teamwork of Leo and Alkorr left bodies strewn about the halls, and the blood of fallen guards on the walls and floor.
"Hey, Alkorr. Watch that hallway. I am gonna check a couple of the storerooms for anything useful."
"I am on it." Alkorr said, reloading his rifle.
Leo entered the large room. The lights were off. He flicked them on to reveal dozens of crates labeled 'AMMO'.
"Jackpot, Alkorr. Get in here and grab a couple clips."
"Okay, I am on my way." shouted Alkorr from the hall.
Alkorr came in quickly and shoved 10 clips in one of his coat pockets. His sniper rifle was on his back, and his new assault rifle was at ready.
They strode into the hallway, with refilled ammunition. Alkorr and Leo walked up the next flight of stairs.
*RECEIVED ASSAULT RIFLE AMMUNITION*
As they ran up the long flight of stairs they heard yells from below.
"They are up there!" the vioces yelled.
Leo and Alkorr finally reached the top floor. They came upon a small double door, half open. Leo kicked it and stuck his gun out in front of him as he walked in looking at both of his sides.
As they walked down the long corridor the two could smell the same odor that was there before. They heard the sound of close footprints from behind. Alkorr turned and stuck the barrel of his rifle in the head of the knifeman and shot a bullet through his skull. Blood was sent through the air and on the face of both Alkorr and Leo.
"They are up there!" the vioces yelled once more.
"Leo, he isn't here." Alkorr said.
"I know... he must be trying to escape." Leo responded.
The squeal of tires pierced the air.
"They are taking a car." Alkorr said, rushing to the window and seeing a sports car pull out, and drive onto the street.
"We'll have to find something. Amin Kree is bound to have a car." Leo said, firing a round down the corridor and hitting a guard in the abdomen. The man fell over in pain.
Alkorr and Leo rushed down the stairs, killing many guards. They found large doors, leading to the vehicle hangar. Three beautifully finished convertibles were sitting there. Three pairs of keys sat on a large workbench, behind the beautiful cars.
Leo looked and made a quick decision.
"That one!" He said pointing to a beautiful red sports car.
"Can you boost cars?" Leo asked Alkorr.
"Oh yea! Hold on."
Alkorr ran and looked under the dashboard.
"Sh*t. This is a piece of cake!" He yelled out to Leo.
"Good!"
A couple more Amin-Kree ran down the stairs and opened the doors, but were soon picked off by Leo which had taken position behind the other fancy cars.
"Hey Leo! Aren't we forgeting about Alenna?" Alkorr yelled as he was boosting the vehicle.
"No, he has her! Believe me." He said as he swallowed.
Within a few more moments the vehicle gave a loud roar. Alkorr took the drivers seat and Leo mounted his rifle on his knee as he took aim to a few more Amin-Kree running down the stairs.
The car burnt out of the hanger and on to the streets. Leo's eyes were blood shot.
A couple more cars pulled out of the hanger and pursued Leo and Alkorr. The shiny green sports car drove to the side of them, as the passenger fired a bullet into the air. The bullet glazed Leo's upper arm. He screamed in pain and shot continuous rounds of bullets at the pursueing car. The rounds hit both the driver and the passenger and sent the car flying off the road.
Soon another car drove up to the side of them, but Leo shot both front and back tires with his new sawed-off shotgun. The went out of control and hit a car in the other lane.
As the chase continued they caught up with Lester. Lester was the driver, and there were three other henchmen in the back seat loading their weapons. Leo fired...it his the man in the middle. Another shot was fired, but this time from the other vehicle. The shot hit the tires of the red car but it didn't slow Alkorr down. Leo swallowed and quickly pulled his berrette from his pocket and shot continuous bullets into the back seat, killing the rest of the henchmen.
The two cars raced through the streets and into a heavily wooded area. Alkorr grinned and crashed into the side of Les' car. It shot off the side of the road and hit a huge oak tree. Alkorr slammed on brakes right as Leo jumped out of the car. With fire still in his eyes, Leo opened the car door and pulled Lester out.
"You sh*t! You worthless piece of sh*t!"
Leo grapped him by the neck and slammed him into a tree.
"You are gonna die!" Leo screamed at him.
Leo pulled out his small handgun and stuck the barrel to Lester's neck.
"bye...." Leo said sofly and sadly.
Leo fired multiple shots into the neck of the Amin-Kree leader killing him instantly. Leo heard screams from the trunk of the car.
"Alenna!!"
Alkorr jumped to the trunk and ripped it open with great force. There sat a beautiful woman, bound hand and foot with a gag slipped off of her face and down to her neck. Alkorr pulled her out and set her on the grass.
There was a large gash on her forehead, but she still was conscious. Her eyes closed tightly, and a tear rolled down her cheek.
"Leo, thank Eru that you are here." she said, laying face-up on the soft grass.
"You are gonna be alright." Leo said, caressing her silky hair.
"We won't be for long." Alkorr interrupted. "Amin Kree's thugs will be after us, and is they find out about Les... we'll be in deep sh*t. Carry her to the car. I can get us out of here fast."
"Okay." Leo responded, picking up the woman.
Leo sat in the back seat, holding his arm, with Alena resting against his side. Alkorr slowly accelerated, watching behind for any sign of Amin Kree.
Suddenly, a black station wagon pulled ahead of them. Alkorr picked up a rifle from the seat beside him and shot at the driver. His many years of sniping were paying off. He swerved to miss the front fender, but scraped the side of the red convertible. He lost control and spun off of the road. He drove back on in an instant, and drove steadily down the winding forest road.
He saw a white luxury car pull behind him.
"Leo, can you help me out." Alkorr asked.
"Sure." Leo said, receiving the assault rifle from Alkorr. He propped Alena up against the back seat, and turned to fire.
All he heard was the click of the trigger. The gun was empty. Leo cursing, fumbling to take a clip from his pocket, and reloaded the gun.
His arm felt like it was on fire, and he barely managed to prop the gun up on the back seat.
He fired until the last shell was spent, and the driver fell back in his seat, torn by many bullets. The radiator was also hit, and the car overheated, stopping in the middle of the road.
Five miles down the road, Alkorr stopped. He helped Leo and Alena out.
"Where are we?" Alena asked.
"My parent's place." Alkorr responded. "They can take care of you while I get my car."
Alkorr knocked on the door. His mother answered.
"Alkorr! What a surpri.... I think your friends need to come inside and lay down."
"Yes, thanks mother." Alkorr replied helping Alena in. "There was an accident out on that south road. She got banged up pretty bad, and Leo's arm got grazed."
She knew that there was more to the story, but immediately tended to the wounds.
Meanwhile, Alkorr ran outside, and drove with great speed to Leo's apartment. He ran to his new car and drove it home, watching out carefully for any members of Amin Kree.

A few hours later Leo was found sleeping lightly on one of the cushy couches in Alkorr's parents' house. His head was in Alena's lap, who was relaxing as well as she could in spite of her raging headache. Alkorr's mom had done wonders, however. Both her and Leo's wounds were cleaned and bandaged, and before long both would be back to normal - at least Leo would. Alena's head hurt too much to wonder about herself. She could still see the butt of that pistol coming towards her forhead in slow motion, see the muscle flex that held the pistol, and feel the seering pain that ripped through her head. Alena shook her head. Stupid of her. Too bad they had taken her knives....
"How are you guys doing?" Alkorr's mom popped her head in the door.
Leo woke up. "We're great, thanks!" Alena answered.
"Ok, I'm going to run over to the garage for a second - I'll be right back." Her footsteps sounded as the left the room, and a door could be heard slamming shut.
"Hey, Leo," Alena said softly, "how are you feeling?"
"Much better," he answered.
"Just wondering... where are we going to go now? I see you went through with quitting Amin-Kree. Smart move on your part, but... now you are going to have not only AK agents on your heels but law inforcement officers as well. Just remember - I'm in with you from now on. Whatever happens... I'll be there." She kissed him.
Alkorr pulled into the stone drive and parked in an empty space, where he kept his car back when he was at home... That was over seven years ago, and from the moment he left, trouble was at his heels. He shrugged off the memories and walked inside.
Leo and Alena rested on the couch and greeted him as he entered.
"Hello, Alkorr. Thanks for getting us here."
"Hey Alena. Good to see you, although I regret that it has to be under these circumstances."
"Yes, but Lester deserves the punishment he now has.” Alena responded closing her eyes and laying back on the couch.
“I don’t think that we could’ve gotten rid of that snake so easily, for his craftiness and power defeats many who allow themselves to be caught off guard.” Alkorr solemnly replied.
Soon Alkorr’s mother returned. Her face was pale. After taking a moment to regain her composure, she spoke frantically. “There was a man in the garage. He was of an odd race, and his skin was half-dark.”
At this, Leo jumped up.
Leo ran out to the garage gripping his gun in his pocket. He saw nothing, but heard the sound of the car pulling out and driving down the street. Leo swallowed. He walked back in the room with his head down and sat back down on the couch.
"Mom, what was he here for?" Alkorr asked her.
"He was asking for Leo, but I figured it wasnt a good time. I told him your weren't here, Leo."
"Hmm, ok."
"A tall dark skinned man? Could it be him? Why was he looking for me?"
The night passed and the trio slept over at Alkorr's mother's house.
They woke up to the great smell of eggs cooking in the fryer.
"I am making you guys breakfast." She said loudly with a smile.

Alena stared at Leo and Alkorr for a split second before retiring to the kitchen with Alkorr's mother to help prepare breakfast. What was this? Leo's life was in danger! As they worked in the kitchen, Alena could see the worry displayed upon her friend's mother's face.
"Who are they?" The woman whispered suddenly, looking over at Alena.
Alena shook her head. She was unsure about how to respond to such a question, for she was unsure about how much information the woman next to her could know. "I think it would be better if you knew nothing about it. For your son's safety at least," she finally ventured.
Alkorr's mother looked over at the slim girl next to her, standing there in her black leather pants and skintight red tube-top. Alena attempted a weak smile. She knew what the woman was thinking.... She knew that the woman next to her who had so kindly housed her and her boyfriend would prefer it if both the aforesaid would get completely out of her son's life. She knew that the woman probably hated both her and Leo on the inside... or did she? Or was that pity that she sensed? Alena stiffened. She needed no pity. She, Leo, and Alkorr all walked the path they walked because of personal decisions, fate, and want. They had no want or need to leave. Theirs was a life of action and excitement, never to be matched by any other lifestyle.
Alkorr sat back in the leather chair. He gazed out of the window, and after a long while, he turned to Leo and spoke, "It seems as if we've got company."
Alkorr stood up, and walked out into the garage. Leo watched the figure of the man, peering through the window. He saw another figure walk towards him, and deliver a punch to the mans stomach. Alkorr pulled the man inside, and slammed him on the ground.
"Tell me who you are, and why you are here." Alkorr demanded.
"My name is Gallows, and I am here because..." His eyes suddenly rolled back, and he began coughing blood. Alkorr removed his hand from the mans neck. He checked the man's pulse, and proclaimed.
"He's dead..."
Alkorr stood up, and wiped off his bloodstained hand. He stood, looking at the man, and spotted a small computer chip, behind his ear. Alkorr removed it, and turned to Leo.
"Ever seen one of these?"

01-04-2003, 05:27 AM
At that moment Alena appeared in the doorway into the house with Alkorr's mother. The woman turned a deathly white as she stared at the body on her garage floor. Alena rushed to Leo's side, ignoring the man and looking intently at the small chip.
"Oh Eru!" she whispered, her mind guessing what she preferred not to believe.
Alkorr's mother held her hand over her mouth and ran toward the bathroom. Leo, scared, didn't know what to do next. So he stood there observing the body. He turned to Alkorr.
"Alkorr, something bad is happening. Something really bad. Lester....he is dead, but that doesn' t mean that Amin-Kree...is."
Alkorr stood up tall and knocked on the bathroom door.
"Mom, we are leaving. I am sorry for this." He says with a raspy vioce.
He walked over to Leo which had his face burried in his hands. Alena stood behind him, messaging his back.
"C'mon." Alkorr said grabbing the body by the feet taking it out to the vehicle.
"MOM! CALL THE ENFORCERS! THEY WILL HELP YOU!" He yelled from the other end of the house.
The car drove off...
"Leo, where are we gonna go?" Alkorr asked.
"We could try going to Dren's. He can give us some firepower." Leo responded.
"Ever shot a gun, Alena?" questioned Alkorr, slouching low in the driver's seat.
"Yes, and if you need me to now... I will..." Alena nervously replied.
The three arrived at Dren's within an hour, and entered a small warehouse. Metal music pounded heavily, making the building seem more grungy than normal. Dren's was the underground for many dark characters, and if anything illegal was ever needed, Alkorr knew that this was the place. They walked in, Alkorr and Leo concealing their weapons. Leo had his sawed-off shotgun, and Alkorr the assault rifle from the earlier battle.
Leo and Alena followed Alkorr to the back, where a short man sat. The man was in his elder years, and brandished a large automatic pistol. A tall man stood by him, daring anyone to make a move.
Alkorr spoke to the man, "Dren, I see that you have some friends here."
"Yes, I do. Now what do you need." Dren replied.
"We need some guns." Alkorr spoke quickly.
"How many?" asked Dren, turning to his bodyguard.
"Let's see what you have first." Leo said, and nodded towards a locked door.
"Very well. Let us go." Dren responded, leading them through the door.
Many racks of guns stretched across a large room. Whatever make and modification was there.
"Feels like Valinor," Leo said, walking down the rows until his eyes fell upon a sniper rifle. "Alkorr, you'll need this." Leo said
Alkorr picked up the rifle and looked at it. "Yes, this will work. I am also going to be taking this..." Alkorr opened his trenchcoat to reveal a jacket holding a large amount of ammo, and 2 pistols. "You get one too."
Alena walked up, holding a brilliantly crafted silver pistol. "Will this do?"
"It is fine," Leo responded.

A prostitute with bright blue hair fell to the ground, blood spilled from the gaping hole in her chest. Debec ran on, he knew that his attackers would not miss the next time.
"What in tha' Mordor are ya doin' Debec! Stay still so we can kill ya, and ease yer passin'!" a Dwarf behind Debec shouted. They were all in the Red Axe gang, a bloodthirsty group of dark-skinned Dwarves; fierce they were, and never allowed a member to leave their gang, upon penalty of death.
The Dwarves opened fire on their comrade again, this time hitting him in his back, covered by a yellow muscle shirt made of mithril alloy. Debec ran on, the bullets embedded in his armorous shirt, and his own weapon loaded and ready to fire. He turned around, brandishing his silver pistols, and opened fire into his assailants, five in all. He felled one, but the others dodged his shots by using civilians or automobiles as cover.
His last clip of ammo spent, Debec turned into an alley in order to escape the Dwarves. But this was not so, for Debec turned into a dead end, and he was trapped.
The company had just left the building with a vehicle full of guns and even a electrically-charged scimitar. The blade was turned off, but had the ability to kill a man on impact.
As they drove along the city streets, they saw a dwarf run into an alley in a vain effort of escape.
"Poor guy." Alkorr muttured, and turned to face the road ahead.
Suddenly, a bullet shattered the window, spraying glass at those in the car. Alkorr shielded his face, as did Leo, thus saving themselves from blindness. Alkorr jumped out, weilding a heavy assault rifle. He fired at the slowest of the Dwarves, a rather fat male wearing heavy armor. Alkorr's shot hit the dwarf on his hand, and he dropped his gun in pain.
Meanwhile, Leo ran to where the escaping Dwarf was.
"Take this and come with me," He said, handing the dwarf a gun.
They ran behind the car, in which Alena lay on the back seat. Alkorr ran behind the vehicle as well.
"Alena," whispered Alkorr. "Set the sword on the ground outside of the door.
Alena did as Alkorr said, and hid once more. A bullet flew over her head, and lodged into the back seat.
Alkorr leapt out from behind the car and picked up the scimitar. It came to life with a dull hum. Alkorr shot at the Dwarves with his pistol, and dove behind another vehicle. He then fired once again,causing the Dwarves to take cover.
Now was his chance. Leo stood and fired, as did the Dwarf. Alkorr ran forward, and drove his blade into the stomach of one of the Dwarves. The strong dwarf fell to the ground, as did another seconds later. The other dwarves quickly retreated, and were not followed.
"Thank you." said the Dwarf. "Oh, My name is Debec."
"It was no problem, Dwarf, although we would ask one favor."
"What is that?"
"Would you join our small party?" Leo continued.
"I am indebted to you... Of course. I owe you my life, swordsman." Debec spoke, directing his words to Alkorr.
"I prefer to use a sword, but I use a gun as well." Alkorr replied.
"Well, you are an excellent ally either way."
The group entered the car, glad to be safe. They went to Leo's place, one of their only safe havens.
Leo unlocked the door and the others followed him into the living room.
"Make yourselves at home, for now." Leo said walking into his room.
The dwarf sat down on the couch and kicked his feet up on the beautiful wood coffee table. "So...is there anything to eat here?" he yelled out, then laughed.
"Sure, like I said. Make yourself at home."
The dwarf walked into the kitchen and began searching the fridge.
"There was something different about the apartment. We could all feel it. We.....we were being watched, I think."

"Hey Leo!" Alena said in almost a whisper from her huddled perch amongst the couch pillows, "Is...is...I feel eyes...or something! Is there someone in here? Are we being watched? Is there a video camera? I don't feel safe even here!" She fingered the butt of her new silver pistol as though she was ready to use it on any possible assailant.
Debec stopped his rummaging in the fridge and came out into the living room with a pre-made turkey sandwich. However, he paused in the doorway, frozen for an instant as though listening. Leo and Alkkor were reacting in similar fashions, each attentive to the watching feeling they felt.
Alkorr walked over to the window and looked out. He then sat down on the couch.
"Don't worry about it. I can keep watch." Alkorr said.
"We'll take shifts." Leo responded.
Alkorr pulled out his gun and ran to the door to the balcony. He flung it open and landed a punch in the face of a large man. The man reeled back, but regained his balance and sent a blow that would have shattered Alkorr's skull, had Alkorr not ducked.
The man's massive fist hit the brick wall and he cursed loudly. He held out a pistol and aimed at Alkorr. Alkorr saw hate in the man's eyes, and closed his own.
'Was this the end?,' he thought.
Alkorr opened his eyes once again, astonished to see the man laying dead on the carpet, blood leaking from the wound on his neck. Alkorr slowly stood up, and looked in astonishment.
"Who shot him?" Alkorr asked.
"Noone shot him," responded a voice from the dark.
"Hey! Who are you?" Debec demanded.
"You shall know soon enough." said the voice.
A shadow leapt off of the balcony and all was silent.
"Amin-Kree," muttered Leo, looking at the tatoo on the man's left arm.
"They are still alive and after us?" Alena asked.
"Yeah..." muttered Alkorr, "We've got ourselves into some really deep s*** here. I don't know what we are gonna do about it."
"Do? What we are gonna do is get rid of them. We've got more power in our group than Amin Kree will ever have." Alena spoke up, and holstered her pistol.
Alkorr turned and though meditatively on these words. Did they really have the power to defeat Amin-Kree?
"Were do we start?" Debec asked franticly.
"I don't exactly know, Debec." Leo muttered.
"but we have to "start" soon."
Leo walked back into the apartment and sat down on the floor and pulled out a large blunt from his back pocket.
"Been savin this for a rainy day." he said with almost a grin.
Alenna frowned and walked over to Leo and grabbed the blunt.
"You are not smoking this!" She yelled at him, throwing it out the window."
Leo stood up and stretched.
"Well, there goes my dinner."
Alenna still stood there by the window frowning, trying to hide a smile. Debec and Alkorr walked in soon after and sat on the couch. Alkorr pulled out a piece of paper and a pencil out of his coat pocket.
"We need a plan." Alkorr said softly..."We need a good plan."

"Naw naw naw!" yelled Debec, his eyes like two burning coals in a hot fire. "What in the Mordor is goin' on here? I thank ye for savin' me from them crazy Red Axe men, but who are ye and what are ye doin'! I ain't gettin' into no trouble this time, no sir!"
The three companions ignored the Dwarf, so Debec leveled his thermal harpoon gun at Alena's face, preparing to blast it apart in a bloody explosion. He wanted answers, and was paranoid of joining some gang that he could not leave again.
"Now I only want to know who ye are, and what yer workin' for! If I think yer good to go, I'll join yer little group 'cause ye saved me back there. But don' take me for no fool, 'cause if I were a fool I would've died to them Red Axe Dwarves a long time ago!" Debec exclaimed, the room grew quiet as Alkorr and Leo reached for their weapons. "Put em down! Don' think I'm afraid to smash up this pretty face!" Debec threatened. "Just tell me about yerselves, thats all I wanna hear."

Alena's heart was gripped and her throat so tight that she could barely swallow. Here she was at the hands of a lunatic, who would stop at nothing . . . nothing . . . to get what he wanted. Alkorr and Leo put down their weapons and Alena rubbed sweaty hand on the back of her leather pants nervously. Her fingers moved ever so slowly towards her pistol until they almost touched. She would kill if she had to, in the blink of an eye. She tried to make it look like she hadn't moved, but she wouldn't bet that her small movement had escaped the sharp eyes of the dwarf.

The two men did not seem willing to tell him about themselves, and Debec caught Alkorr's eyes trailing down to Alena's waist. Her hand crept like a spider moving stealthily through her web; but Debec was accustomed to such tactics from prior experiences. With a swift kick to her shins, he swept her off her feet, sending her pistol clattering across the floor.
"Naw naw naw, missy!" Debec roared, slightly agitated. Anticipating an attack from the two men, the Dwarf increased the intensity of the thermal harpoon launcher, and fit on a pair of smoky goggles that were worn from many years of working with fire.
"What do you want to know, master Dwarf?" asked Alkorr, realizing this Dwarf was insane, and prepared to do massive damage before being caught off guard.
"Tell me everythang."

"Hey, whoa, whoa!" Alena yelled from her cramped position on the floor. "What the h*ll do you think you're doing? We rescued you and here you are trying to force information out of us! Don't you think that a better way would be to sit down and ask nicely? Don't you want any developed trust here? Or do you want us to never, ever trust you again?" She was almost screaming by this time, digging her fingernails into the floor. Everyone stared.
Leo swallowed hard and stood up. He bent down and picked up his weapon from the ground regardless of the weapon pointed at his head.
"I am in my house, I will do as I please." Leo said loudly but not quite screaming. "You cant kill all three of us, so it would be foolish to shoot anyone."
"Thats right. It would be." Alenna added.
Alkorr and Alenna grabbed their weapons quickly and had all three barrells pointing at Debec's skull.
"Now, lets start over...put down your weapon now."
Debec slowly disessembled the weapon and laid it on the floor.

Alena gripped her pistol and almost screamed out, "How DARE you threaten to kill us after we saved your life! What an pathetic excuse of a friend you are! We saved your life and you turn on us?" She pointed her pistol at Debac, making sure that he did not do anything unexpected. Suddenly a look of panic and fear flashed across the dwarf's face as though he were terrified of what might happen. Something in his hidden past flashed through like a ghost, showing pain and fright. However, as quickly as it had come, the look was veiled and Debac turned towards Leo with an almost humble expression on his face.
"I meant no harm, Leo . . . " he began, his voice shaking.
"Meant no harm!" Leo burst in.
"I just feel it's your duty to tell me what you want to mix me up into, that's all!" The dwarf had complete control over his voice now.
Something about the frightened look and the Debac's reply touched Alena. She lowered her weapon and said in a small voice, "I think he deserves to know, Leo and Alkorr. But we deserve to know what he's up to too."
"What he deserves is to get shot!" Alkorr yelled holding his rifle at point blank range.
"Alkorr, calm yourself and lower your weapon, please." Leo said softly.
Alkorr took a deep breath a sat down on the ground still holding his gun.
"You first, Debec..."
The Dwarf, being unaccustomed to this new group, looked at his feet in nervousness, but only for a second.
They knew he was a dwarf, and they knew that dwarves reacted harshly to humans ignoring them
Debec shrugged off his thoughts and prepared to speak. Alkorr stood up and walked out of the room with his rifle. He didn't intend on hearing out a dwarf, nor an elf, nor a human.
"Hm...he is a strange individual." Leo said to the others, lowering is gun.
"We need to watch him very closely too. He may try something." Alkorr commented.
The 3 sat down on the couch and waited for a few moments.
" I just knew that dwarf was gonna try something...I could feel it."
Leo stood up and followed the dwarf into the room which he had entered only to see the sheet that was nailed over the window blowing in the wind. The dwarf left through the window. Leo ran out the room and told the others.
