Unknown Nothingness

[Prancing Mad]

<span style='color:green'>"Just don't get on my Bad Side and you should be fine..."
Tikawa manages a glance up, watching the Serephine hiding away.
"Don't look now, but your little friend Just disappeared."</span>

[Isaac]

<span style='color:blue'> "He's not my little friend. He's not even my friend!-", Artemis was cut off by a massive stomp that shook the earth and trees slightly. "What was that...?", she asked looking around nervousely. Another stomp came and it sounded closer this time. </span>

[Wizard]

<span style='color:purple'>The Serephine looked behind him to check that he was not being followed. "Good..." he muttered. Then he looked straight again...and slammed into a giant hand that was outstreched to meet him. It knocked him unconcious upon impact, and he fell right into another hand below him. Aldar, despite all his precautions and cleverness, had been captured.</span>

[Isaac]

<span style='color:blue'> More stomps continued and soon the thing that was causing them came into view. It was a giant demi-gorgon. Artemis looked at the gorgon and screamed. Then she quickly flew behind the Dragonian, trying to hide behind his wings. </span>

[Prancing Mad]

<span style='color:green'>Tikawa just looked up at the Demi-Gorgon and sighed heavily.
"I knew I should have stayed in bed this morning..."</span>

[Wizard]

<span style='color:red'>The Demi-gorogn roared loudly, then threw something at the two of them. </span>

<span style='color:purple'>Immediately afterwards, the Serephine crashed into the ShadowWing and the Dragonian, knocking them all to the ground. Aldar remained unconcious and was cut, deep in the side of the face by a sharp branch. He began bleeding profusely over his companions. </span>

(I made the Demi-Gorgon in <span style='color:red'>Bold Red</span> becuase he's not exactly me, is he? Maybe we should do that with all monsters...)

[Prancing Mad]

<span style='color:green'>Tikawa pushed himself away from them, and looked down, noticing the Serephine's cut. He sighed roughly, then looked to Artemis.
"Look, you distract the Big thing, and I'll get him."
He kneeled down beside the Srephine and held his hand over his cheek, releasing the holy energy into him, slowly sealing the wound, and releaving the pain.</span>

[Isaac]

<span style='color:blue'> "Um... Okay...", Artemis said, as she drew her sword. She flew up into the gorgon's view and made sure it noticed her. </span>

<span style='color:red'> The gorgon swung at her and roared. </span>

<span style='color:blue'> Artemis dodged to the side and called upon her necromancy to help her. "Bone Conglaciation!", she said. She felt the gorgon's bones begin to freeze and frost over. As it thrashed about, she felt its bones crack and brake. The more it moved, the more bones it broke. </span>

[Wizard]

<span style='color:purple'>Aldar opened his eyes and saw the demi-gorgon. "Oh, dragon droppings." he muttered. He began to Meditate upon Maelstrom of Elements, chanting in an alien language under his breath.</span>

<span style='color:red'>The Demi-Gorgon tripped and began to fall upon Aldar and Tikawa.</span>

[Prancing Mad]

<span style='color:green'>Tikawa, unable to Fight, Quickly grabs Aldar, and leaps away, as the Gorgon collapses onto the ground.
"You need to be more Careful there little man..."</span>

[Isaac]

<span style='color:blue'> Artemis glided down to her companions.
"Are you both all right?", she asked. She sheathed her blade and gently landed on the ground. </span>

[Wizard]

<span style='color:purple'>"Yeah, I'm fine...Lookout!" he shouted.</span>

<span style='color:red'>The Demi-Gorgon's hand rose up from its defeated body and began to slam down upon Artemis.</span>

<span style='color:purple'>"Maelstrom of Elements!" Aldar yelled. A whirling frenzy of Fire, Water, Ice and Lightning hit the hand. It was blown apart. The raging elements continued along down its shoulder, destroyed its head and evaporated.</span>

<span style='color:red'>Tiny pieces of the Demi-Gorgon began to rain down upon the trio.</span>

[Isaac]

<span style='color:blue'> Artemis looked at Aldar and
said, "Thanks...". A wet piece of the gorgon hit her arm. "Ew! Gross!", she said as she threw it to the ground. More pieces of the gorgon continued to fall around them. </span>

[Prancing Mad]

<span style='color:green'>Tikawa just brushed a piece off of his shoulder, then turned to leave.</span>

[Isaac]

<span style='color:blue'> "Hey! Where are you going!?", Artemis called to him. Before he could answer, the trio found themselves surrounded by none other than the Scarlet Crusade guards. </span>

SC Guard Leader: What's going on here!?
