The clown paused for a moment, considering the question, finally he said, "Lown, Imayc Lown, one of the leaders of the illustrious cult of chaos. Now, if you don't mind, my six star treatment please!”

“Sorry,” hissed Rue, “We don't accept clowns.*

*What?! You racist!” shouted the clown, “But,” he added calmly, “It doesn't mater, since I am such a tolerant person. In fact, I was thinking of nailing you to a wall, cutting open your stomach and using it as a toilet. How's that sound?”

“Please tell me that was a macabre joke,” sighed Kevin.

“It wasn't!” replied the clown in an obnoxiously high pitched voice.

*Wonderful,* said Kevin rolling his eyes, “Look, one psycho is enough of a handful for me, couldn't you bother someone else?”

“Why?” asked the clown.

“Um, to be nice?” suggested Kevin.

“Ew!” shouted the clown, “Nice?! What kind of a creep are you?”

“Kevin, just stand back and let me handle this loser,” said Rue, “I'm going to crush every bone in his body, rip out his jaw, and use him as a sack to carry compost and manure in.”

“Oh, speaking dirty now are we?* asked the clown, “Rue, you stud.”

“Um,” said Kevin, “Are you by chance...”

“No!* protested the clown, “Gender doesn't matter; why ignore half the population? In fact, neither does age; old people are arousing too. Or species! Other animals are warm as well. In fact, as long as it has a hole in it, or can have a hole carved into it, it's good by my book!”

“Please excuse me while I go vomit everything I have ever eaten,” sighed Kevin.

“Oh, can you do it in a bowl?” asked the clown, “I need more raw ingredients for my vomit stew. I'm almost out of my last batch you see.”

“Right...” said Kevin, “Leaving now! Rue, I'll be back to pick up whatever's left of you in an hour... presuming the clown is gone.” With this, Kevin jumped from the roof, landing agilely on his feet, and quickly made his way out of the town.

“Oh goody, a fight!” exclaimed Imayc, “Let's paint this town red!” "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

“Ah,” sighed Kevin as he leaned against a tree. “What did I do to deserve this? As if Rue wasn't bad enough... Well, I'll just rest here and...” He was interrupted as a large explosion went off in Ardougne, sending civilians scattering, and calling regiments of paladins. A few moments later, and a chunk of burning debris slammed into the ground a few feet from the Zarosian.

“Right,” he said, looking at the debris, *I think I'll go further away from the city.” So, doing his best to ignore the screams and explosions coming from Ardougne, Kevin wandered farther from the city. Before long, he found himself in a place he was not familiar with, and stopped walking. As he did so, something caught his eye, it was a strange rock, standing upon a paved patch on a hill. More out of curiosity than anything else, he placed his hand on this rock. To his surprise, the moment he did so, the Zarosian symbol he wore upon his neck began to glow, and the rock slid away to reveal a set of stairs leading under the ground.

The Zarosian stared at these stairs, but after a moment's hesitation was overcome by curiosity and so descended into the underground.

“I apologize again for our elder brother's absence,” said Vanescula Drakan, bowing slightly to the Zamorakians in front of her, “He has been absorbed in... certain important affairs.”

-Affairs more important than the Weapons?- Iban thought to himself. Nonetheless he remained quiet.

“We have, however, found the information you seek,* added Ravis Drakan, “And I think you will be surprised Lord Iban. We have a fair guess as to where the bow, Kalechot is kept.”

“Go on,” said Iban.

“The bow's last known location was in the hands of a certain elf queen,” continued Ravis, “The wife of Baxtorian.”

“Glarial?” asked Zeryth,”She had the bow?" "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

“So our records indicate,” said Vanescula, “There have been rumors that Glarial was a follower of the Grea- of Zaros. At any rate, she was buried along with Kalechot by Zarosians. According to what we have heard, they fashioned a tomb for her with a false bottom. The bow was put under the false bottom, and the urn containing her ashess on top of it. This should have prevented any meddlers from getting their hands on the bow.”

“Thank you for your aid,” said Iban, “We will now take our leave.”

Even as the Zamorakian turned to leave, he felt Azdejak materialize at his shoulder and heard him whisper, “Iban, an ambush.”

Hearing this, the Zamorakian instinctively drew his blade, and no sooner had he done so than a group clad in armor marked by the symbol of Saradomin entered the room.

“Zamorakian filth!” they shouted, “Prepare to die!”

“Saradominists?! Here?!” questioned Vanscula, “How can that be?! Lord Iban, we will leave these to you, Lord Ravis and I are too busy for such distractions.” So saying the vampiric nobility turned into mist and vanished. This didn't seem to sway the Saradominists, who quickly closed in for the attack, moving with speed and agility that should have been impossible for normal humans. One even made the mistake of getting too close to Iban and was promptly smashed into a nearby wall. However, he was up and attacking again in a matter of seconds.

“Vyrewatch,” commented Azdejak.

Iban's eyes widened as the word registered in his mind. “This is not our fight,” he said.

“Teleportation blocking wards are gone,” added Azdejak.

“Good work Azdejack,” said Zeryth, “Azdejak, Calder, Iban, close to me please.” Once her companions had obeyed, Zeryth cast a teleportation spell, carrying them safely away from Drakan Castle. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

Kevin slipped past a series of skeleton sentinels and found himself facing a tomb with the symbol of Zaros on it. Pondering why such a tomb would be underground, he reached out and touched it. Immediately, the lid slid off, and the Zarosian braced himself for the possibility that he had just awakened some fearsome type of undead.

However, it didn't take him long to realize that nothing was coming after him, and so he peered into the tomb. To his surprise it was empty, but even as he stared, the Zarosian symbol around his neck seemed to free itself from the rope holding it, and fell into the tomb. As it landed, the bottom of the tomb began to glow with dark violet light, then it faded to reveal a bow.

The bow was made of dark, twisted wood, and possessed several eyes which almost seemed to move. Yet, repulsive as the bow's appearance was, Kevin felt himself called to take it, and thus, his hand almost involuntarily reached out and grabbed the bow.

“So you found my prize. Turn it over,”

Kevin turned to find a young man with short blond hair and piercing blue eyes standing in front of him.

“Don't even try to escape, my allies are outside waiting for you,” said the newcomer, “And you have no chance of defeating me, so don't even try.”

-Don't listen to him.- A voice in Kevin's head said, -You can still get out of this, I will help you.- With this voice, Kevin felt a heat begin to radiate through his body. Without even fully understanding what he was doing, he raised the bow toward the newcomer.

“Big mistake,” laughed the newcomer, raising his own bow, one made of deep blue crystal.

However, before the newcomer could even notch his bow, five arrows made of light had shot from Kalechot and exploded into clouds of noxious gas all around him. The newcomer gagged and stumbled back, while Kevin dashed past him with incredible speed. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

Kevin continued to run, even once he was certain that he was no longer being pursued. The feeling going through him was amazing; it seemed like he had limitless energy, and superhuman abilities. All this just from having this bow in his hand. He now understood why the gods were so eager to get their hands on these weapons... which reminded him, he should return this weapon to Zaros. At this rate, he could probably run all the way to Senntisten without taking a break.

-But why?- asked the voice that had spoken to him before. -Why run to Zaros? I have the power to grant anything you desire, and you would give me away? Come now, think, what is it you want? Wealth? Fame? Power? Pleasure? Knowledge? I can grant you all these, and so much more...”

Kevin paused for a moment, what exactly did he desire? Suddenly, the answer came to him, the answer he had known all along, somewhere deep within himself. He flinched, hoping the voice had not noticed.

-I see- said the voice, shattering Kevin's hope. -That is an easy request. Now come, let us acquire what you desire.-

Kevin started to say something, but before he could do so, the strength of his desire magnified sevenfold. Instead of being somewhere deep in his mind, it now burned through his whole being, and could not be dismissed.

“Yes,” he finally said, “Let's go...”

With these words Kevin set out in a direction entirely different than the one leading to Senntisten. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

Allow me to give it to yuo in terms you'll understand. Nick teamed up with an archer called Vin (which most people accept as a nickname for people called Vincent) and they killed monks of Zamorak and dark wizards in the wilderness for fun. Better?

Also, Nick would find Armadyl's sword very tempting... *hint, hint*

And he also has reasons to get the other two weapons (Vin and me

)

Nice posts as always Aqua...the Reaper is pleased....
Also...I hope you don't get a kick out of Imyac Lown...he's quite the awkward fellow and the "Vomit Stew" caught me off guard O_o

Also Dogone....you're quite annoying..if you've submitted a bio let Aqua add him in his own way....if not he'll send me (The Reaper) out to slay him with no mercy...

Also #2: I must be thinking too hard...is the voice in Kevin's head one we've already met? (one-word answers only!)

Until next add....keep up the good work.

Imayc primarily exists for two reasons:
1) I asked the rl person who Rose is based on what kind of people would be in the Cult of Chaos and well... her first suggestion was someone like Imayc -_-;

Oh, you think that's bad, you should know that she idolizes him and says he is one of the greatest characters ever. I personally wonder how I ever got along with that she-demon...

2) Ginko (as you will see) is somewhat a "chaotic good" character. He means well, he's just bat-sh... well, he's crazy. So I felt for the sake of having all viewpoints represented I needed a chaotic neutral character (Ece) and a chaotic evil character (Imayc) in the Cult of Chaos.

Only as I write this does it occur to me I haven't been as balanced with the other cults thus far.

As for the voice in Kevin's head... it depends what you mean by "already met" If you read the previous edition of Weapons, then you've already "met" the owner of the voice. If you've only read this edition or Monolith, then you don't.

Oh, and Dogone, I misread something in that bio of yours. And, being half asleep didn't check it when I copied and pasted... anyway, don't worry about it. No more re-reading bios when half asleep for Niht.

Oh, and for the record, I don't mind suggestions to my story as long as their made ONCE and in a nice, respectful way (this doesn't mean they will actually happen of course). Telling me in imperative tone to do something, especially telling me to remove unspecified characters because of your personal feelings, and then not even elaborating on your claims (yes, troll known as Mcmrs, I do mean you.) Is not welcome.

Which brings me to the last item in this post. Nyx, if you are offering to eliminate trouble-makers, there is a troll that hasn't been around for a while (*cough*seetheaboveparagraph*cough*) who I'd rather not see again, at least not without him having some very good explanation for his previous posts. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."
