Daeron jumped at the right time. He had evaded the effect that had bucked the skeletons up so that they fell back down into a heap on the stone. Darius would show no quarter however. He stepped forward, his sword glowing crimson once more as he charged 'Vertical Square,' which make a square-shaped cut to again hit all of the skeletons as they lay in a tight heap, limbs caught on limbs. As Darius charged forward, roaring, he jumped into the air, activating 'Vertical Square,' his face nothing but lines of hatred.

[1-8]- 'Vertical Square' hits the skeletons, dealing two damage to each.

[9-10]- 'Vertical Square' hits the skeletons for critical damage, dealing four damage to each.

[There is literally no way you can miss. They are all pretzel'd and the like on the ground.]

[Daeron 1]

Daeron watched as Darius killed one of the three Skeletons on the ground and saw the other two were still alive. Daeron walked over to them, still paralyzed and swung his dagger across sideways so it cuts both of them. Since they were paralyzed they couldn't dodge and he killed the other two. Daeron checked the log for any loot that dropped.

Seeing the last of his enemies shatter to pixels, Darius sighed. He had put his sword under a lot of stress from using so many abilities so fast. He would have to get a more durable one, In the meantime however, Darius simply sheathed his sword, waiting for whatever loot they would get.

[Daeron 1]

Daeron looked over at Darius with a happy face.

"We got 9 of them. Enough to make you your armor and a new heavy sword." he said as he put the 9 Iron Ingots into his inventory.

"We should probably head back to town so we can go ahead and make you your sword and armor, hopefully I don't mess up. That's why I grabbed so much of a resource. So if I do mess up, I can do more than a single time before being empty." he said as he looked at the map.

"The forest is this way, we don't want to enter another battle, so we gotta be careful now. Another fight and that sword's durability might just break. It could happen any second." he said as he finally finished setting a waypoint on his map on the town.

In response about his sword's durability, Darius simply smashed it off the rock floor, snapping the blade, casting it aside. He opened his inventory and equipped a curved dagger, a little over a foot long. It would be good enough. With a stern face Darius spoke, "Let's go."

[Daeron 1]

Daeron began to lead the way through the forest. He looked at his map here and there, but later on in the forest he had forgotten something.

"Alright, Darius, we need to be careful here, I just remembered something now... there are bandits all over this place. We'll be lucky if we don't encounter any, or just very few." he said as he proceeded with caution.

Darius followed behind Daeron as they walked through the forest, a grimace on his face. He had no problem from running away from whatever bandits they may come across. As soon as he got his new equipment, he would simply come back and slaughter them all.

[Daeron 1]

While walking through the forest, Daeron heard a stick snap. Daeron turned around to find 4 <> standing there. They were all only level 2 so they should be easy. There wasn't any chance of escaping. Daeron looked at Darius who was practically weaponless. Daeron pulled out his sword and tossed it to Darius, as Daeron grabbed his trusty dagger.

As Darius caught the sword, because he had to, he tossed it back. He was sick of other people's help. They didn't think that he could handle himself. He would prove them wrong.

He drew his dagger, a rather pitiful looking weapon, but a deadly device in the right hands. Darius' chest was already heaving, anger,rage, and adrenaline coursing through his body like liquid fire. As he stepped forward to meet the bandits, his face split into a wolfish grin, a cackle of laughter breaking from his throat. He would kill them all.

[Daeron 1]

((Is it possible I could join you guys? This looks fun))

[Daeron 1]

((Sorry, we're almost done in fact))

Daeron caught his sword and as the sword landed in his hand he ran towards Bandit1 with an upward slash towards his chest.

Bandit1 [9/9]

[Darius Verand 0]

As Daeron moved to attack Bandit1, the other bandits went to attack him from the side and behind. Darius, not wanting his friend to get ambushed, used 'Howl' in the form of a hate-filled roar to draw them away from Daeron. The other three bandits turned and approached him, two fanning out to either side while one stayed in front of him. The two on the sides had swords while the one in front of him was equipped with a dagger. The bandit to Darius' left, Bandit2, charged at Darius. Darius dropped to a knee, raising his buckler and placing his other hand on his forearm to better support it, giving him a defensive boost.

Darius had held his buckler high, but the sword had glanced off the side of it, still coming down and slashing across Darius' shoulder. He growled, his face full of hatred. It was just his luck to be attacked on their way back to getting his heavy armor. He lashed out with his buckler, attempting to deal damage and stun Bandit 2 with a ferocious growl.

[Daeron 1]

Daeron glanced at the posture of his opponent. His guard was down a little more on the left side of his body, so he knew if he went for an attack on the right and faked him out towards the left, it would be a little easier to inflict more damage. Daeron ran towards his opponent from the right, raising his weapon preparing for a slash at his arm.

Darius had smashed Bandit2 in the face with his steel buckler. The bandit stumbled back in a daze. Darius roared and followed up, plunging the dagger deep into the defenseless bandit's stomach, dealing two damage; before smashing him again with his buckler to get the man off, dealing one more damage and making Bandit2 stumble past his friends, who were both following up with A horizontal attack from each side. Darius stepped back, charging 'Parry' with his dagger to try to block the enemy's dagger on his right and raising his buckler to block the enemy's sword on his left.

[Daeron 1]

Daeron turned towards his opponent who now took a hit. He didn't seem to hurt, but before the Bandit could recover from the small piece of damage taken, Daeron ran in, trying to make another attempt to harm the enemy. Daeron raised his sword now which began to glow orange. Daeron went to use the ability <> onto his right arm, which was the opponent's dominant arm. He knew it would be slightly tougher to hurt him on his dominant side, but he knew that if he can pull it off, he would have a huge advantage over the Bandit.

Darius snarled, his face twisting into a monstrous mask. He had created a stalemate between the three. He pushed Bandit1 on his left back with his shield, easily overpowering the man. He then turned to Bandit3, who's sword was locked against Darius' dagger. He snarled at the Bandit, and went to slam his shield down on to the man's elbow joint to disarm him, which connected to the man's elbow, jarring his arm as he dropped the sword to the ground and taking one damage, stumbling back and grimacing.

\\ Darius' combat roll. //

[Daeron 1]

Daeron faces his weakened opponent now who couldn't attack due to his injury. The bandit was slowly recovering from the hit, but didn't have the time to fully recover before Daeron took another jab at him. Daeron then swung at his other arm, and the bandit being injured already, took another hit. This time the bandit fell back to the ground. The wounds on both his arms gushed blood. Daeron stepped in front of the bandit and pointed the tip of his sword at the bandit's stomach. Before he could push his sword through the body, a voice was shouted. FALL BACK! Before Daeron could react, the bandit helped the injured one up and pulled him away. "Wow... I guess they thought they could take us on. Oh well, easier way to make it home now. Let's go to town now and make you your items."
