Chapter 20 – One Final Effort
The magic ball expanded above the tower. There was not long left before it would go off. The RCR troops watched in amazement and fear of what might happen.
Meanwhile, Ransar was struggling in Roalds grip. “Oh Ransar my dear enemy! DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND!” He screamed. “YOU CANNOT WIN! TODAY WILL BE A LOD VICTORY!” Ransar finally found the strength to fight back. He rolled back up and over Roald and knocked him to the floor with the but of his sword. He brung round a vicious kick at his knee, only to miss. Roald parried him into the barrier and grabbed his neck, pinning him to the floor. “WHY…WONT…YOU….DIE!*
Downstairs, things were going slightly better for the RCR. Tanis was struggling to hold Karenzi and Taran off. Taran slid across the floor into Tanis’ legs, knocking him off balance. Karenzi followed through with a swift punch to the chest, before a stamp on Tanis’ groin. “Arhh…..No pl-AAH!!” Karenzi was enjoying himself, and he spiced things up a bit by beginning to strangle Tanis with his own abyssal whip. Tanis suddenly brought his secondary weapon – his dagger – around to slice the whip in half. He elbowed Karenzi in the face and threw the dagger at Taran. It sliced straight into his arm, Taran yelling in pain. “You’ll pay for that!” Taran ripped the dagger out and piled, knocking Tanis to the floor. He drew his two hander and held it above Tanis. Karenzi had been badly hurt by the elbow to the face.
He had a choice – preserve life, or take it? Tanis started to run, he had to act. But he did*’t. He chose the morale choice – he would not descend to the level of his enemies. He bent down at helped Karenzi with his wound. Him and the others had to tend to each other – all they could do was watch Ransar and hope.
Ransar was choking. He had to think of something. He finally managed to push Roald away, slamming him against a wall. He lunged but missed and Roald used the flat side of his sword to knock Ransar to the ground.
