Chapter 2 Operation Woodpass, over and out!

After a few days, the party meets up in Geno's room.

Almuric- Ok, how did our little operation go?

Everyone stares at each other.

Madd- Well, not so well... still in a hang over...
Al- ...can you at least tell me what you did exactly?
Bounty- Well, let me start by saying that this wasn’t a good plan since the beginning and...
Al- What the hell did you do?!
Bounty- ...well, I got lost in the castle. I was lucky enough to find an exit sign. Who the hell had the bright idea of making castles so damn big and with so many rooms?!
Madd- I got my victim drunk so...
Narf- I was expelled from the kitchen area for disturbing the peace.
Xander- I got slapped by that hot babe... oh she’s a feisty one... I LOVE IT!
Al- At least Geno got something right?

Geno glares an innocent look at Al.

Al-... ok, explain...
Geno- It’s not my damn fault humans are so pathetic and weak!
Group- ?
Geno- Well, when I had him being tortu-... I mean interrogated, he slipped away. Afraid that he might go to tell the rest of the guards, I... kinda...
Al- You what?
Geno- ...noticed a nice stone figure at the entrance of the castle? I made it...
Al- Oh great, all that’s left is Rune... so nothing then!
Rune- Hey! Wait a minute! I got something... well, sort of...
Al- What?
Rune- A zombie like dude was attacking an old lady outside...
Narf- Bah, leave the thieves for the guards man, we have better things to do.
Rune- But, but... aw screw it...
Al- So, no one got a thing? What kind of a party am I leading damnit?!
Rune- A very special one?
Al- Rune, you’re the only special one here.
Rune- Oh... thank you.
Al- Well, not in a good way, but in an always-making-mistakes type way.
Rune- HEY!... That’s unfair and untrue...
Geno- So, what now fearless leader?
Al- Ah, don’t know...
Xander- Why don’t we just ask them?
Al- Oh yeah, great idea...like they will ever tell us...
Rune- I’ll ask them then.

Rune ran out of the room

Al- ... me and my big fat mouth...
Genp- Sheesh, someone stop him! Fetch him Madd!
Madd- Arf!

Madd went after Rune as everyone followed closely behind. Madd saw Rune at the entrance of the main chamber so he quickly jumped him.

Rune- Ow! Hey, get your stinky paws of me you damn dirty Dwarf!

At that moment, Exec, Beo and Nem appeared.

Beo- What is this? And you call me a fag?

The rest of the party arrived

Geno- Good boy! Here’s a treat.
Madd- YUM!

Immediately, someone opened the main door. It was Thunderbolt, all covered with blood.

Thunder- EAH! MY LORD!

Exec and Beo grabbed him as he was falling.

Exec- Thunderbolt! What happened?
Thunder- It was horrible. Ilikegames and I went into the woods right where the supposed figures were. We began to search for clues, but found nothing. As we were about to leave...

Thunder looks at the party.

Beo- Go on, they must know as well.

The party stood there, shocked for a second.

Thunder- ...well, they appeared from nowhere.
Geno- Who?
Thunder- The possessed.
Al- What the?
Thunder- But that's not all...

Thunderbolt shows them his wounds.

Thunder- ... they were much more fearsome than in our last encounter. I barely made it out... but Ilikegames... he...
Exec- oh no...
Narf- He’s dead right?
Thunder- no... He’s... cha....

Thunderbolt passes out.

Exec- I’m sorry. I must help him first, then I’ll inform you of the current situation.

Beo calls for his guards and his cleric. They take Thunderbolt to another room.

Rune- Wow, hope he recovers.
Exec- Hmm, all of you, go to the Warroom Chamber. Wait there till I come back.

The party goes immediately to the chamber. Narf glares at the door they take Thunderbolt into before following along.

Bounty- Ok, what now?
Al- We wait.
Madd- Argh! What's with you and waiting?!
Al- Patience is a virtue.
Madd- Maybe for you... It’s torture not to know what’s happening.
Xander- Hey, to think we owe all of this to Rune.
Rune- heheh, No problem! Glad to help others.
Xander- ... actually I referred to the mess we’re in right now.
Rune- ... you sneaky, low life, son of a-..

Exec, Beo, and other high ranking guards enter the chamber.

Beo- Ok, is everyone here?
Xander- NO! WAIT! Where’s my sweet rose?
Narf– Huh? Who?
Xander- Who else has a beauty that surpasses the stars?
Madd- My mom?
Xander– Sorry, a beauty that can actually be seen!
Madd- HEY!
Beo- Damnit, stop talking about my sister!
Madd- Oh, bah, that skinny branch? Why don't you get yourself a nice 300 pound Dwarf? More cushion for the pushin heheh!
Xander- ... you are a disgusting excuse for a warrior.
Madd- Correction, a drunk warrior heheh... oh... hey!

Nemesis immediately rushed in the room.

Nem- Oh, sorry for being late.
Xander- *drooling* No worries my princess! Here, sit right next to me!
Nem- Oh, sorry, I’d rather sit by an actual man.
Xander- Ouch, cold... I LOVE IT TOO!
Narf- Geez Xander, get a life.
Xander- I have one, and I don't regret it!

Nem sits right between Beo and Rune

Rune- Hey there.
Nem- Hi. We haven't properly met, right?
Rune– Uh, let’s see, guys?
Al- That’s Rune, the strangest...
Bounty- Craziest
Geno- Dumbass
Madd- Unique Druid
Narf- There is
Xander- in this world.
Nem- How could you say such things?
Rune- Actually they are getting better each time. Congratulations guys.
Party- Thanks.
Bounty- Can we go onward already?
Exec- Ok, by now we all know that the possessed are getting more powerful each day.
Al– Possessed?
Exec- Correct. That’s what we call the peasants that have become zombified.
Al- How did that happened?
Exec– It’s unknown. It just began a few months ago. It started out very small, vermins, most of the time. We did not care at first, but then it gradually reached the stronger beasts and even humanoids started to feel the effects.
Al- Can you find out where they are?
Exec- Our scouts report that they disappeared into the forest. We never venture deep in the forest for the risk of losing more of our men.
Narf- What risk?
Beo- The risk of war coming to us. We don’t want to kill our own brethren.
Geno- And what do you think these constant raids are? Road trips? They are hitting you weakly at the moment, but the attacks will become more and more fierce with each new raid.
Exec- And what do you propose sorcerer?
Geno- That we launch a small skirmish against them and see where their camp is.

Beo stands up aggressively.

Beo- And risk what little is left of our defense? We cant end up as the others did!
Geno- What others?
Exec- *Sigh* There was a town at the other side of the forest. We haven't had any contact with them for some time.

Al stands up

Al- I know! Send us to the town! We will check for any survivors.
Exec– That’s brave of you, but you’ll need more than wits if you plan to survive the wrath of the possessed and demonized creatures that now lurk within the shadow of the forest.
Al- No problem! We can take on any foe! Right guys?

The party keeps quiet.

Al- With friends like these, who needs a foe?
Beo- Well, Geno, you did propose a skirmish, did you not?
Geno- Ehh, we’re just a party. A skirmish requires at least SOME trained men, not a bunch of drunkards looking for fun.
Beo- Bah, details. With a party made of a Paladin, two fighters, an assassin, a sorcerer, a cleric, and a good-for-nothing druid, who needs trained men?
Geno- ...I hate you...
Exec- So it is settled. Almuric, you're given the title of Royal lieutenant, and this will be your squad. Your mission is to infiltrate the town, Woodpass, and find any sign of the enemy or survivors. If there are none, await further instructions which will be relayed through Mind-Chat with Geno. Is that clear?
Al- Sir, yes sir!
Rune- ... what is this, Battlefield 1942?
Al- Shut up and keep in the story line!
Exec- Good, before you leave, I want to show you something.

Exec gives a signal to a Guard. The guard opens a door and moves a large cage covered with a mat.

Exec- This is but a taste of what you’ll confront.

The guard takes off the mat revealing what was once a man now consumed with fury, hitting the cage wanting to kill them all. His eyes shone bright red.

Madd- What the hell is that?
Bounty- Looks like my ex-wife.
Exec- This was once a man called Thunderbolt. He is now a possessed. As you can see, he is no longer in control of his body.
Rune- Wait a minute, I saw a guy like that in an alley attacking a woman, but he had black eyes.
Exec- Yes, we think the color of his eyes represent the deity they now follow. Black onyx for earth, bright red for fire, bright white for wind, and deep blue for water.
Bounty- So... our ex-friend here is fire based?
Exec- We still don’t know if they have any elemental powers or weakness, besides their strengths of course.

Rune gets close to the cage .

Rune- Oh well, at least now you can change that weird name.

The possessed opened his mouth and a flamethrower burned Rune right in the kisser.

Rune- *cough* *cough* Maybe not...
Al- Oh well, at least we know they are elemental based, thanks to our lab rat here.
Rune- *cough* No problem *cough* *cough*
Al- Ok, what will you do with him?
Exec- It is sad, but we must keep him alive in order to study him and, hopefully, find a cure.
Al- Very well, it’s settled. We’re going on a quest boys!
Party- ...
Rune- ...whoopie...
Exec- Let us begin tomorrow morning. Get some rest tonight.

At the dorms.

Xander- ...!!!
Rune– Huh? What’s bugging you?

Xander runs out of the room toward Nem's chamber. He knocks on the door.

Xander- Room service!
Nem– What? We don't have room service.
Xander- uh oh... uhh, Chambermaid!
Nem- She's been dead for a month.
Xander- darnit... oh... Snoop Dog!
Nem– Huh? !!!

Nem opens the door and Xander rushes in.

Nem- Hey where's...
Xander- Wait... before you throw me out, I need to tell you something. I fell in love with you the very first time I saw you coming through that door, and I haven't stopped thinking about you for a second!
Nem– What? Ohhh... that explains why you were always happy...
Xander– Huh? OH, heheh...

Xander crouches.

Xander- Well, anyway, I want to tell you something before I leave tomorrow since I might never get to see you again.
Nem- Yes?
Xander- Nem, would you... DO me?
Nem- Do? Do what?
Xander- You know... huff huff... wooff wooff... all that stuff...
Nem– Come again?
Xander- When two people get together and form one?
Nem– What are you talking about?
Xander- Damnit!!!... Will you have sex with me?!

A tear hung from Xander's eye. A shocking silence filled the room. When Xander was about to leave with his head down if shame, Nem holds him.

Nem- Wash off that tear from your face... Tonight you're mine!

Xanders voice echoed through the castle.

Xander- WOOOOOOOHHHHHHHOOOOOIIIIEEEEE!
Al– What was that? Looks like Xander is having fun.

Next morning, the party was waiting at the entrance of the town for Xander.

Rune- Where the hell is Xander?!
Al- Hey that's my line! Where the hell is Xander?!

Xander comes running out from the castle.

Xander- Woot, am I late?
Rune- Had fun last night?
Xander- Ah, any more and it would have been incest.
Al- Enough chit-chat. Lets get moving!
Madd- Alright, I got the dri-.. err provisions for the voyage.
Xander- Ah, I’m so happy right now, I could die.
Geno- Want me to help you?

Geno starts to charge a Phantasmal Killer

Xander- ARG! WAIT! It was only a saying dude!
Geno- Watch what you wish for.
Xander- I wish you would disappear.
Geno- Did you say something?
Xander- Oh nothing...

Party begins to walk through the road to Woodpass.

Rune- Is this the right way?
Al- Beo told me this was the way.
Rune- My druid senses tell me something's wrong.
Geno- Oh please, if we follow your "druid senses" again well end up in Amn!
Rune- Now you're exaggerating.
Geno- Am I?
Party- Not really...
Rune- ... backstabbing sons of pigs...
Geno- Technically, you're the son of animals...
Rune- Shut up Geno... just shut up...

And they began walking.

Bounty- ...

And walking..

Bounty- !!

And walking...

Bounty- !!!
Al- ?

And walking….

Bounty- For God's sake, please someone do something!!!

Geno colorsprays Bounty.

Al- You like to use that thing don't you?
Geno- It has its uses on weak minded people.

Madd carries Bounty on his shoulder.

Al- C'mon! First Rune and now Bounty!
Rune- So that was what happened!
Geno- Uh oh...

Almuric drops his hammer on Rune's head. Rune is now out cold.

Al- You owe me a cookie now.
Geno- What happened to the righteous mind of the paladins?
Al- It fell on Rune's head.

Madd picks up Rune.

Madd- Guys! If we keep doing this we’ll end up unmanned for the quest!

At that moment they heard a sound coming from the bushes.

Al– Huh? What was that?
Narf- That’s called a sound...
Al- Quick, Bounty! Investigate!

Madd throws bounty's body into the bushes.

Al- Ah great...
Madd- Told ya.

They immediately hear another sound coming from their back.

Madd- Ok, this is getting creepy.
Al- C'mon Geno, what's happening?
Geno- Why ask me?
Al- You're the sorcerer here! Do something!
Geno- Like what?
Al- I don't know! Use your magic to find him!
Geno- .... really... how did I end up like this...

Geno starts to search for the reason of the sounds.

Geno- C'mon Narf, help here.
Narf- Ah, all right.

They both start searching but find nothing.

Narf- Must have been the wind.

As he looks back at Al, he senses something strange close to him.

Narf– Hmmm... Geno, do me a favor and launch fireballs all around us...
Geno– What?... ok.

Geno starts shooting fireballs until a figure moves around Al.

Geno– What the?

Immediately the figure kicked Al in the back of the head while moving at an incredible speed towards Geno.

Al- Ow!
Geno- Argh! Take that!

Geno shoots everything he has in his arsenal, but couldn't manage to hit him. The figure steps on his head.

Strange Man- Too fast for you old timer?
Geno- You son of a!

Narf took out his war hammer and was going to hit the man, but the figure moved and he ended up knocking Geno out.

Narf- .... oops...
Strange man- Heheh, you can’t fight what you can’t see!
Narf- Cocky brat!

As Narf begins to aimlessly attack everything surrounding him, he knocks out Xander out as well.

Al- For gods sake Narf! Stop!

The figure was so fast that Narf got exhausted of swinging his war hammer. Narf fell to the floor and was even too tired to get up.

Narf- come... back... herreeee.....

Al- Madd! DO something!

Madd threw Rune's body toward the figure. The Strange man was unaware and got knocked.

Al- Well, wasn't what I expected, but good job...
Madd- At least Rune's body was useful for something.

Al and Madd began to round up what was left of their party. They took the mysterious man and tied him up to a tree.

Al- Ok, let’s wake this man up and find out if he's a possessed.

Madd took a bottle of vodka and washed the man.

Al- How is he gonna get up with this?
Madd- Eh? It works for me...

The man begins to move

Madd- See?
Al- Unbelievable... Ok, who are you!
Misterious man- ...
Al- Hmm, won’t talk, eh?...
Misterious man- I took your friends out. I’ll take you out as well.
Al- Oh, confident are you? Wanna bet?
Misterious man- Of course!
Al- ok... heheh...

A few minutes later, the party begins to come around.

Xander- Ehhhh... what happened?
Rune- Last thing I saw was a hammer crushing what’s left of my cerebrum...
Geno- oh, look at that.
Rune- ?

The party looks at Al, Madd, and the mysterious man playing cards

Al- Hahah, I win.
Madd-... bah, I quit playing with you.
Misterious man- Cheater!
Xander- What the hell are you doing?
Al- Just having fun with Robino here.
Rune- Robino?
Robino- Yeah... got a problem?
Rune- ehhh... no...
Geno- You're the brat that I couldn't hit?
Robino- You're the old timer that made the fireworks display? Nice.
Geno- Damn kids...
Al- Easy there, he's just a friendly face I haven't seen in some time.
Geno- Friendly?
Al- We met way back. When I was in Neverwinter still training to be a Paladin, he was training to be a Shadowdancer. We were bunk buddies. He was a lot younger than I was, but everyone saw the talent he had in him. We split when graduation was over.
Robino- Yep, good times hehah. Now I’m just wandering these parts cause of some rumors I’ve been hearing about these woods.
Xander- What rumors?
Robino- Of the apocalyptic threat here. I just came to see the show really. When I saw Al there, I just had to intervene.
Rune- And you didn't recognize him Al?
Al- At first no, but when I started playing cards with him, I knew his skills and moves, then WAM! I remembered him from when we played poker with the masters.
Robino- Which, by the way, you owe me 500 gold for.
Al- What? I won fair and square that time!
Robino- No you didn't! You just took off that day so you wouldn't pay me!
Al- You little nosy...!
Rune- And that's old buddies for you.
