Father Torque looks around at the commotion in the bar and sees the warrior fiddling with the picture and then resumes
his meal.
Thinking that someone should watch the bar, Father takes a long draught of his ale and commences loading his
pipe.
He sits down next to the man loading a pipe and frowns lightly. He turns to the man and says, "What is with the commotion?
I thought this was a pleasant place."
<Flash to outside>
Flying in formation, Shark and Momster
head towards the battlefront. Momster, Have your girls start heating up that second big boy, I'll swing around and hit him
with the Ice and crack him off in usual style. The back up troops will get to the first one by that time." The formation brakes
into their attack runs.
Momster's girls position themselves on opposite sides of the hulking beast and start to heat it
up. Shark takes a broad sweeping path and lines up for his run. In a streak of black Shark and his mount stream towards their
target and with a flash of blue ice breath you hear the crackling of granite. Shark proceeds towards his target and pulls
up right at the last second. FlyingShark lands squarely in the middle of the beast's chest. "Timber!!!!" cries
Shark and takes off just as the Colossa hits the ground on it's back with an earth shaking thunder. "Good job Mom, but he
ain't finished yet." says Shark as the three regrouped for another run.
Abraxas' hands glowed fiercely, and with
pure bright white light that is so blinding, hit the Colossa, and pinned him down so Shark and others can finish him off.
Abraxas shouted "Hey, somebody finish him off!" Abraxas' hands started to glow from pure white light to fierce ultraviolet
blue light, from the struggle of the Colossa.
Meanwhile back in the bar, Dark Blade nods respectfully to Father Torque, watching him fiddle with his pipe. Noting that
others in the Tavern have not objected to FT lighting up, Dark Blade reaches into his fighter's smock and withdraws a slim
cigar.
Wondering if somethings never change, Dark Blade whistles a few bars of Thanos' Bride March and was pleasantly surprised
to see a familiar little scaly creature fly down from a log rafter.
"Awwww...it's so cute. Can I touch it? Will it bite me? I don't want to be bitten. Where did you get him...or is it a
her?" Spooky sits down next to Dark Blade and smiles at his obvious discomfort.
"Just a little ember on the end
now Zippo; you remember what happened last time."
With those words, the little pixie-dragon lit the cigar with a feather
sized flame from its mouth...then disappeared back up to the ceiling
