Hey, so I decided since there hasn't been a post on this thread is like 3 months, I'd post the most recent Jagex story contest entry I did on here.
It kind of sucks, but it's something I guess.
************
A scream rent the darkness.
“The pain can only worsen, pathetic Saradominist wretch,” a cruelly-sneering mouth intoned. A fat gobbet of blood-specked phlegm vehemently spat forth in reply, besmirching the polished, hobnailed boots of the torturer.
The sneer turned into a virulent grimace. “Very well, insolent pig. You’ll regret withholding information requested by the Legion of Zamorak.” A scarlet-gauntleted fist drew back, lashing a viciously barbed whip across the prisoner’s back.
As another cry of pain escaped the unclothed captive, he shook his manacles, prior bravado suddenly vanquished. “P-Please! Just…Just stop, I c-can’t take the pain…” he moaned, shivering. “I’ll tell you…”
A scribe rushed in, quill and parchment at the ready. “Yes, go on. We know the Saradominist offensive is planning to assault our strongholds in Asgarnia and Misthalin. Describe every single detail you know about this planned attack,” he enumerated rapidly, before narrowing cold eyes. “And if you even consider lying, I will ensure you pain the intensity of which you cannot fathom.”
The warden left the room, striding purposefully to his master, Legion Commander Krell Culryth. Dropping to a knee with a smart salute, he addressed his superior curtly. “Legion Commander, it is with pleasure I report that we have succeeded in breaking the captive.”
An uncomfortable silence followed, the Legion Commander contemplating the back of his gauntlets. It was an annoyance; a nervous tic he’d developed after the ravages of constant war, but it helped his thoughts to coalesce.
Abruptly standing, he addressed the still-kneeling warden. “He is lying.”

Eyes widening, the official opened his mouth to speak in protest, but closed it in a flash of self-restraint. Zamorak had gifted his master with prodigious foresight and intuition; who was he to question? Standing smoothly, unsheathing his trusted blade, he again saluted.
“Keep his testimony just in case.”
“Sir.”
Striding back into the dungeon, he passed the scribbling scribe and the mumbling prisoner before wordlessly burying his blade in his neck. The scribe blinked, rolling his parchment and hurriedly exiting the chamber as the prisoner gurgled his life away, mouth opening in silent confusion.
“Apologies, but no one lies to His Excellency Zamorak’s forces. And He knows.”
Kicking the corpse from his blade, he let two servants drag it away.
Cracking his knuckles, he grabbed his implements and headed down the dungeon hallway to another cell, greatly looking forward to discussing offensive strategies with another prisoner.

***************
Very short, I know, but they only wanted like one page entries, so there you have it. Enjoy.

I thought they mentioned those two as being part of the offensive in the little plot summation given about the game in the Knowledge Base. *shrugs*
I've never played the game, but seriously, I doubt that little tidbit was their focus. :p
My stories aren't exactly, uhm, 13+ appropriate.

I've got to get back to writing I think, don't think I'm as awesome as I should be since I entered the Incredibly Gifted Authors... though, at this point, I find it difficult that I was even accepted since all those other people were declined.
