Miles Counter/Dodge

Miles didn't falter and saw the incoming teeth. It was too late. They latched around his snout as he pulled back, reopening wounds that had closed over the time and creating some new ones along with it.

Barghest 2 attack

The second one had just watched its friend die and didn't like that one bit. He turned on Zelrius, wanting to give him another scar on his ankle, effectively trying to slow him down too.

Zelrius Dodge/Counter

Zelrius looked as the beast disappeared and was finally gone. He sighed, one down 2 to go, and one of them still had a lot of fight left in him, He turned around to see a out reaching claw coming straight for his ankle again. He didn't have anytime to react and just felt the pain run across his foot and body once again.

Zelrius Attack

Zelrius didn't bother with the second barghest as of right now, all he knew is that a few more hits, and the second would be down and out, He equipped one of his last two poison picks on the end of his sword and went forward to stab the first barghest.

Barghest 1 Dodge/Counter

The first barghest didn't move as it wasn't expecting a sudden attack from the Boy, as it thought that he was preoccupied with the second Barghest who was still all full of health and ready to go. But there he was, driving his sword right in between the first beast's rib-cage, letting the poison pick do it's magic. It slowly disappeared, just like the third had.

(1 damage x 2 = 2 = Dead Barghest!)

Miles Attack

Miles was glad that the first beast was finally dead in particular. What he wasn't happy about is now the one that remained was almost at full health as they paid next to no mind to it. Well not anymore, starting now, he would be the only priority. Miles charged forward to push over and be on top of the beast.

Barghest 2 Dodge/Counter

The beast saw Miles coming and Crouched when Milse came charging, causing the wolf to trip over him and land hard in the musty and damp ground below. The beast gave a small sign of joy, a short grunt and walked over to Miles to give him a nice slash to the spine.

Barghest 2 Attack

The barghest went again with its grunt of joy and lifted its arm for another slash to Miles' back. It enjoyed the pain it would give the dog in days to come, or the pain it would give the boy to lose the wolf here pretty soon.

Miles Dodge/Counter

Miles knew another attack was coming and how it was going to happen. He opened his eyes in a spilt second and the next thing Zelrius knew, Miles had already crawled out and around the Barghest, now they stood behind him, with his spine exposed for endless amounts of attack.

Zelrius Attack

Zelrius didn't hesitate and knew exactly what to do. he equipped his final poison pick and threw it right at the Barghest. The pick had made contact, thereafter, so did Zelrius' sword in his frontal right Thigh.

Barghest 2 Dodge/Counter

The Barghest was confused at how fast the beaten wolf had just moved. As far as it could see, Miles hadn't moved half that fast since the battle started, and now here he was zipping around. In the midst of confusion the Barghest felt a small prick in his torso, then a large burst of pain from his thigh.

(7 higher = 3x2 Poison pick = 6 + Poison Damage 1 = 7)

Miles attack

Miles had finally had enough himself. He went forward with incredible speed, gripping his Jaws around the Barghest's neck, as it had tried to do to both him and Zelrius not too long ago.

Barghest 2 Dodge/counter

The Barghest stumbled and then got back up, struggling a bit because of all legs being seriously injured from constant abuse of supporting the hurt weight, lack of food, and the slashing that was dealt to the parts. When it finally regained balance, there wasn't a second that passed between that and the teeth holding it's throat. The beast whimpered and slowly began to disappear, dissolving into a million particles as it all ended.

Zelrius grew wide eyed as the final one died. He grew relieved that Miles was still alive and kicking well at the end of it. Finally, he collapsed onto one knee from exhaustion and looked to the gap he had fell through. There in the semi-light of the bottom of a jungle, he saw the slight light change that occurred from night to day, which meant that battle had taken all night, and he only had roughly thirteen hours or so left of his lantern. He picked it up and blew it out, being able to kind of see from the semi-light.

Zelrius then fell on his back onto the hard stone. Miles came over and snuggled up by him. He pulled out 2 healing crystals and healed both himself and Miles. Without warning, The "CONGRATULATIONS" window popped up and nearly gave Zelrius a heart attack from the sudden burst of light it gave. Those Barghests were so tough he had leveled from it. That was the last thing that happened before he drifted off to sleep, as did Miles.

Tonight, as always, Zelrius' dreams weren't peaceful. He woke up often in fits of fear or simple hysteria as he saw over and over again what he had done to people. Their faces haunted him. And this time, one stuck out. The Duel he had had with Atenea. How she was being a good person and saving someone and he just turns around and flattens her life like it was nothing.

Still, the day moved on without his consent. The Jungle slightly lighting up that morning with each passing hour, reaching a high point, then slowly lighting back down. The difference in light wasn't visible unless you inspected every little detail of the Jungle for a large period of time, as Zelrius had done since being here. He had always the time to complete pointless tasks of the sort, as he was ALWAYS bored here.

Finally, he had slept, or tried to, for 17 hours. At last he decided it was pointless to get back to sleep has he was running out of provisions for this trip and only had about 10 hours of Lantern light left. He had to escape this hole to use a Teleport crystal as something was stopping him from doing so within the depths. He stood up, jolting Miles awake as the Wolf still wanted to sleep. It amazed Zelrius how he could sleep so soundly even though he too was a murder.

He began to stroke down Miles' back. Miles stretched then looked to Zelrius and licked his face. To Zelrius, this was a wake up call and actually showed how they needed to get moving. They couldn't waste another second, Zelrius stood up and walked off into a direction in the Hole, watching as the Jungle behind them in sight, slowly disappeared into darkness.

[Zelrius 0]

He stopped and switched back on his Lantern. When he did this he looked back and tightened his face in focus. The clock was now ticking, and if they didn't get out in the 10:32:26 (ten hours 32 minutes and 26 seconds) that was left on the Lantern's remaining oil, They'd be stuck here for a good while if not forever, as they would have no idea where it is they were going.
