"Go ahead and get some sleep both of you, I am going to stay up, I have a bad feeling. "
Kalysta opened an eye and looked at Phelan, he shook his head to tell her it was nothing. Just a second later a stick broke off in the woods somewhere. Phelan stood and half drew his swords, he really wanted to belive it was just an animal, but he had a feeling that it wasn't.

" You moron keep it up and our attack will be for not."
several of the hunters surrond the camp and take up positions. Shalandra lets the pouch fall near Darlena. Then lays down by Kalysta.
" They mostly women this will bode well for us..."
" We will wait for dawn then get them."

Phelan glanced around knowing these woods well having spent most of his life in them. He knew that orcs could be lumbering about. He hadnt heard any other noises he gently eased himself back to the ground without a sound and watched over the women as they slept. I guess I am over reacting he told himself as he stroked Kalysta's hair.

Darlena started to dream of her trip to Kara, the bard that bravely stood his ground in the face of certain death. His gentle kiss on her hand no man had ever showed her kindness of that type. But then something happened... her hands started becoming furry and claw like. She was become the beast she loathed so much being. Then the dream became darker.. she grabbeb him by the neck and started slashing away at his chest. She had no control of herself as she dreamed of Elindars demise at her hands. Darlena jumped as she woke briefly.
" Sleeping trouble?" Phelan said joking.
" No its nothing.. are you tired I can take over. Its still smells of hunter here."
" Well I am still watching you ladies please try to sleep somemore."
" Don't tire yourself out we need to get to klick tomorrow."

As the hunters watched the camp they noticed that only the man was awake.
" I have an idea.. lets have a bit of fun with him..."
" No wait lets get him to chase us out of the area, that way the others will be caught of guard."
" I like it lets do it the others will catch on shortly."
The first hunter gets up and comes out into Phelan's view. The sencond hunter grabs a rock and throws a rock at Phelan, hitting him in the side. then the two dart back into the darkness. Phelan was on gaurd now, the pair of hunters split up and went to opposite side of Phelan. This time the second hunter made himself seen and the first threw a rock this time hitting Phelan in the back of the head.
" Come and get us prettyboy" they make offensive hand gestures at him and disappear into the woods snickering.

Phelan knew he should wake the others, but then again there were only two of them. Kalysta would know if something was wrong anyways. Phelan tossed his hair back and tied it in its costumary pony tail. Phelan's lips peeled back away from his teeth in something reminiscant of a smile, he looked more like a wolf.
Phelan drew his swords and fell into his warrior self. He moved forward in a dead run. Phelan laughed silently to himself, these were his woods he knew them intimatly. He would hunt down these two and head back to camp, in short order. Through the woods he moved silent as ghost.

" Hes following us .. Hhes following us."
" Good lets split up you circle back and kill the girls start with the red head then the others leave the human and shalandra."
" Got it ... you stay alive."
" Dun worry I have a few tricks for him."
The second hunter circles wide and doubles back toward the sleeping women. The other continues on his coarse toward the shoreline.
" Thats right Tier'dal keep following me.... soon you will find the others soaking in a pool of blood."

Phelan sees the two men split, he follows the one who pelted him in the head with the rock. With amazing dexterity and skill Phelan grabs a branch and smoothly pulls himself to the trees, skillfully stalking his prey. Phelan breaks off to the right and circles ahead of the man lying in wait in the branches above.

" Thats right prettyboy waist your time following me."
The hunter laughs that their little plan to have some fun with Phelan had worked that is till he dissapeared from sight. " uh oh."
The second hunter was nearly back to the camp he could see the fire in the distance. He made his blade ready as he singled out his targets the red head was almost directly by the fire but the spell caster was a much easier target Shalandra was sleeping beside her and the human across from the red head. He began creeping up behind Kalysta quietly.
" Bonus for me ... Lady Nikkii will have to put in a good word to the elders for this."
As he was about to reach out to grab her hair he snapped a stick waking Kalysta.

Phelan peers down at the man as he crouches looking around for Phelan. Nice try Phelan thought to himself, but I am already here. I shouldnt' have left, I will have to hurry, no time for messing around with this one. The man turned and Phelan dropped from the tree not making a sound, as he landed behind the man he stabbed one of his short swords through the mans right lung and the other slashed his throat open.
The man tried to cry out but his severed vocal cords wouldn't do anything but wheeze futiley. Phelan drew his blade from the man's back, with a sick suction like noise and let him fall to the ground. He wiped his blades on the mans clothes and then sheathed his swords. The man lay on the ground thrasing about in the thrawls of death.
" Wait here...Prettyboy....I'll get help. " Phelan said sarcastically as he kicked the man in the back and sprinted back through the woods.
" Damn, I am a fool, I should have seen what was happening, I can only hope that I am not too late. " Phelan berated himself.
"KAL!!! DARLENA!!! WAKE UP!!!! SHAL!!!....WAKE UP!!!" He screamed at the top of his lungs as he sprinted back toward the camp.
Phelan ran pumping his legs for all they were worth. Finally the fire appeared in the distance and he knew he would be there soon.

" Who are you! "
" Shut up wench!" He strikes Kalysta knocking her down the noise wakes Darlena and Wilkens. He realizes that the odds are stacked against him so he does the only thing he can think of, take a hostage. He reaches down and pulls Kalysta up holding a dagger to her throat.
" Your a hunter aren't you? " Darlena snarls holding back her rage.
" At your service m'lady... now you women stay calm and this one keeps her pretty little head. He tugs her head back pressing the dagger against her throat drawing a bit of blood.He then looks her body over.
" Hmmm ... I always wanted to feel a teir'dal woman's body."
" Take you hands off her you filth." Wilkens demanded.
" You will hold your tounge wench and you stay in my sight lycanthrope. If I see one claw or fang I'll kill her.
He starts to fondel Kalysta much to her disapproval. The others could do nothing but watch in anger.
" What did you do with Phelan? "
" He's occupied."

Sly‘s keen dark elven ears picked up Phelan’s cry as she sat back at the hunter’s camp smiling at Keyra.
“Yes my dear girl, if you would please get that willow bark for me, this here wound is really starting to pain…”
Sly looked kindly at the girl, thinking fast. V’talin..there is nothing I can do for them now. Except keep Keyra occupied, maybe they will have a chance….
“Ooooooohhh, please hurry dear!”<br> “Yes, um..hold on, I’m looking for it.” Keyra’s voice rang out of the tent as things clanked and rattled from with in.
Sly thought quickly….she wanted to raid the camp, search for information, but Keyra couldn’t be there..thinking quick…
“Oh my goodness…oh no..oh no, oh no, oh no…oh I am going to be hanged!” Sly put on a mock show of extreme worry.
Another loud clank clattered from within the tent as Keyra stumbled out with the willow bark. Sly lurched up and then sat back down dramatically wincing. “Ooooo….what am I going to do?!”<br> Keyra hands her the bark, “Um..what is it ma’am?”<br> “The letter to the governor! I’ve lost it! Oh no, I must have dropped it when I got up in that tree…oh I’ll be hung alive!” She acted as if struggling to get up. “I’ve got to find it..oh I’ve got to…but ooooooo this leg..”<br> “Um..well, I could go look for it..”<br> “Oh no, me deary, you have to kill that awful beast.”<br> “Um..well Salandra and the others can handle her, she shouldn’t be a problem”<br> Salandra…..so, she was working for the hunters, hmmm, perhaps I can distract her.
“Well dear…I have got to have that letter..oh where could it be.”<br> “I’ll go find it, it was my fault you lost it anyway.”<br> “Oh your such a kind girl.”<br> “I try.”<br> Keyra went off back into the woods, searching for the letter, and Sly waited until she was out of sight. Keeping her ear toned to hear foot steps she immediately got up and started rummaging through the hunters items in the tent, searching for any documents or information, and perhaps planning a way to sabotage the camp.

What was I thinking? I shouldn't have left. If anything happens to any of them I won't be able to live with myself.
Phelan could see bodies moving against the dancing firelight. Phelan wanted to take the time to make sure there weren't anymore lurking in the shadows outside the firelight but he knew that there wasn't much time he could feel Kalysta's fear and anger welling up inside.
Phelan could see a man holding Kalysta with a knife to her neck and knew that he couldnt' just rush the man. He stepped from the shadows as the man was speaking.
"Occupied"
" Am I now? " Phelan said casually as he walked into the light with his swords sheathed.
Phelan smiled, he knew the man thought him to be busy if not dispensed of by now at least.

Darlena and Wilkens noticed Phelan appear from behind the gloating hunter. Shalandra noticed this too and the bag Keyra gave her under Darlena.
:: Hmmm Phelan might notice me more if that harlot is killed ..... I gotta stop him from killing that hunter.::
Shalandra moves causing the hunter to glance her way, fortunatly Phelan ducked back into the darkness. Darlena took the opportunity to step closer to the hunter almost within striking range. Starteld the hunter pulled back.
" What do you think your doing?
Darlena give him a seductive look then places her hands on her hips. " Why don't you let the small one go and grab a REAL teir'dal woman."
Her comment confused the hunter so much his grip weakened on Kalysta and his attention was completely taken from Phelan's direction.
" This must really be one of Marr's blessing now I'll have two teir'dal women!!"
