Chapter 2
Escape
~~~~~~
Unaware of the danger that had just entered Falador, Chazz and Tyron had rejoined their friends in the Rising Sun Inn. The inn was extremely crowded that night, which made matters that much worse.
Tyron, Iolous, Termac, Chazz, and Ace were all sitting at a table waiting for their beer... Just like they had been for the past half hour.
"If my beer doesn't get here soon I'm going to throw a table across the room," muttered Chazz. "That oughta get their attention."
"Then they'll throw us out, so how would that be an improvement?"
"Shut up, Iolous, or I'll throw YOU across the room."
At that moment, a burly man wearing the armor of a guard sauntered in. Everyone in his path immediately stepped back, hoping not to get punched as he went straight up to the bar.
Tyron had been watching him to see if he would start a fight--Tyron figured anything would be more entertaining than sitting around--but when the guard did nothing, he turned his attention back to re-counting the cracks in the ceiling.
"Hey Tyron," said Termac.
"What?" snapped Tyron. "I'm busy."
"I think that guard that walked in a few minutes ago is trying to make a move on your girl."
Tyron instantly whipped his head around to the corner where Willow and Jessica had been standing. Sure enough, there was the guard. Tyron casually leaned back to hear better.
"So what are two fine young ladies like you doing in a den of riffraff like this?" asked the guard as Willow and Jessica stepped back.
"None of your business," said Willow. "But you're even worse riffraff than they are, you drunk. Go away."
The guard grinned and started to put his arm around Willow's shoulders. "Feisty, huh? Well that's how I like 'em."
Tyron jumped up and stood behind the guard, then tapped him on the shoulder. The guard turned.
"Hasn't anybody ever told you to be polite to a lady?" said Tyron, then decked him.
All of a sudden, the room was a huge free-for-all.
"Finally, some real fun!" yelled Chazz.
