Dead Men Don't Tell Secrets *EPILOGUE*

[Anarchy_Jas]

"And we know how to destroy you," Jas says, smirking. 'Just dig a two inch hole in the ground...'

Keisha's katana starts gaining a silver glow. "Bring it."

[Max Headroom]

Mira ran to the other side of Riolo. "Which one of us are you going to attack first?" Mira asked while in his fighting stance.

[Dr.Hobo2]

"Solon! What do you think you're doing?" Tanbar shouted at him while he walked toward him without his sword in his hand because he didn't want to attack him. Lanbar came running over to Tanbar and stopped him with his arm and took out his own sword.

"Hey! Solon wants to kill us now." Lanbar said to his brother. "I know that you don't want to fight him but he won't be hesitating to kill you!"

[THEBIRD]

(( 'Just dig a two inch hole in the ground...'
XD XD XD Ouch, that's cruel. ))

"I don't show favoritism. I treat each of you disgusting rats the same," Mage Riolo told him with a smirk. He pointed one of his swords at both of them and a black goo-like substance went shooting at both of them.

"I doubt you have a clue," Solon replied. "I'm not the same person I once was." He chuckled, twirling his sword. "Now, just hand over the gems, and no one gets hurt."

[Triforce_Luigi]

"Solon, you're an idiot if you think we're just oing to hand over the gems like that," said Venice. "And I doubt you can kill us all."

[Max Headroom]

Mira dodged the black substance. Could that be.... Oil? Mira put his knives away and took out another bomb and threw it at the substance. If it detonates, it is oil.

[THEBIRD]

The black goo ate the bomb. The bomb exploded inside the black goo, but all could be seen was the goo enlargening for a second, then a cloud of black smoke. The goo then deflated and disappeared into the ground.
---
"I will kill you all," Solon replied confidently. Then, the darkness disappeared from his chest and the red in his eyes was gone. Solon coughed and shook for a second, before falling. Damn... That always throws me off... He stood back up, shaking slightly. This situation is bad... But, on some twisted kind of bright side, I could pretend to be evil right now and they'd totally buy it. But back to the real question... What am I going to do?

[Triforce_Luigi]

"Back to normal?" asked Venice, who noticed the cough.

[Anarchy_Jas]

"Rat," Keisha runs in, jumping over the goo. "It's dog/wolf thank you," she swings her katana, hurling flames at Mage Riolo. "Get. It. Right!" She slashed to the left, right, then downwards, letting more swirls of flames fly at him.

[Max Headroom]

While Keisha was attacking, Mira ran up to Riolo to stab him, avoid the substance as much as possible.

[THEBIRD]

(( I thought the fall would have been a bigger hint then the cough :P ))

Solon just nodded, not making any eye contact. He was ashamed of what he kept on doing, or rather what the darker soul inside him kept on doing. It was even more painful to have to face everyone as a good guy only moments after trying to kill them. He kept on clenching and unclenching his fists to relieve the stress and staring at the ground.
---
Mage Riolo had a water bubble around him to distinguish the flames, but he was too slow for the sword slashes. Most of them hit, even though he was able to pull back so they didn't hit him too hard. His shoulder and arms were badly cut, but otherwise he was still up and able to fight. "Psh, dogs... Drooling, whining babies is what they are. I can't say I don't see some of those traits in yourself." He stabbed forward with his own sword while at the same time sending more goo at her. He sidestepped Mira's attack and shot a few more balls of the black goo at him as well.

[Dr.Hobo2]

Lanbar saw that Solon wasn't evil any more...for the moment and reached into his pocket and grabbed...a small wine bottle. "Strange...although I'm not one to really complain about something like this." He then downed the whole thing which made him slightly drunk.

"I don't think now's the time to do..." Tanbar was too late, Lanbar was already starting to stumble around...toward Mage Riolo. "...that." He finished with a sigh.

Lanbar went up behind Mage Riolo. "Hey! -hic- I challenge you to a one on -hic- one...duel." He said taking out his sword while swaying from side to side.

[THEBIRD]

Mage Riolo gave a malicious grin then laughed. "Fine. If these two ra- Or should I say, darn dogs- let me," agreed Riolo.

[Max Headroom]

Mira fell backwards to dodge the goo. "I'm not sure who the second 'dog' is, but if it is what I think it is, I most resemble a fox." Mira sweeped his legs around, in an attempt to trip Riolo.

[Anarchy_Jas]

Keisha growls and charges, pushing the goo back with her sword. "I'll rip your spinal cord out and feed it to ya myself!"
