Axiom Gaiden: Chapter 2: Dreams of Red - Page 5

The group shuffled around, and eventually decided to settle down.

Except, from above them, they heard some terrified yells, mostly consisting off "SLOWDOWNSLOWDOWNSLOWDOWN!"

A wagon bounced into the middle of their little camp, propelling two dwarves and what seemed to be a goblin over their head. There was a crashing as their wagon broke into pieces.

Celes sat bolt upright, and lit a fireball in her hand.

The stunted little goblin thing's face dropped. He muttered, "Oh no."

The fireworks went off. Within about two minutes everything had calmed down. Granted, most people had soot all over their faces, and for a few people their hair was sizzling.

The two dwarves glared at the goblin thing, and said "I told you the trail went left."

There was an odd pause.

Kal was the first to speak. "Let's go from the top here. Who are you, what are you doing, where are you going, AND WHAT IS THAT!?" He jabbed a finger at the little goblin like thing.

The goblin was the first to speak. "I'm Ka Boom, and I'm a grot. These two numb-skulls are Tweek and Bang."

The dwarves sadi something along the line of "Hey how's it goin'."

Kal stood and looked at the grot. It literally stood about 2 and a half feet high. Kal made a motion with his hands for them to continue.

"Wezza going to castle Grimaxe over their so these two babies can see their mother. Together, we're the only three explosive weaponry, and firework producers this side of the fourth dimension!"

Kal slumped down. He glanced at the dwarves. They were shrugging uncomfortably in their plate, and taking down their axes. One unslung a crossbow and accidentally fired it. The grot screamed. The bolt had something attached to it, and it wasn't apparent what until it nailed a tree and exploded.

The group tried to ignore the odd threesome as they screamed at each other, mostly consisting of insults.

Just tone down the evil and up the cuteness factor.

"Great," Axel mumbled, kind of annoyed by the three arguing. "So what do we do about these three oddballs?" he asked, pointing at the dwarves and the grot.

"I hope we have some better means of reaction than idly standing around and lollygagging... because that's all I have for the moment..."

"Well this just great, now I have no eyebrows" said Fredan. He quickly made an illusion of some eybrows and some of his hair to "much better. I say go with these guys up to the castle, if they know someone up there we might get some comfy beds to sleep in, although they may be a little small" he said, looking over at the dwaves.

"Going to the castle sounds like a good idea. I mean, if the owners are related to these guys, they'd be too busy tripping over each other to actually do anything bad to us, at least not on purpose."

Darth SS · 08-03-2004, 03:56 PM

There was a muffled explosion. Kal raised a hand and said, "I think that bad to us point is arguable."

He glanced at the trio. Currently, one dwarf was standing on top of the other two, and was holding the grot's tongue in a pincer, and was beating the other dwarf with a wrench.

"You know, maybe we should just start to the castle anyways..."

"Best idea I've heard today," Axel said in response to Kal. He quickly started to go toward the castle, fearing the next explosion would be somewhere near his head.

Zweihander · 08-03-2004, 04:39 PM

"As amusing as this is, I don't enjoy being blown way up. Castle sounds good to me."

He waited for anyone else that might see fit to come along.

Vindro had been on the ground by the wreckage from the carriage, and placed a small object in his pocket. "...what? Oh, right, let's go to the castle." Vin stood up and followed after Axel as fast as he could.

Celes ran a hand through her hair, feeling a few slightly crispy strants from the exploasions. <Mental note: be careful with fire around these things...> She thought, then brushed herself off.

"I agree, besides, when we get to the castle, we can rest and discuss what happened back there at the ball." She said, walking forward towards the castle.
