Dire flinched when the blade shot out. He chuckled. "Yes I daresay you can fend for yourself." "How much, may I ask?"

Kearen shrugged "I dont know. Im still learning this currency. " She twisted the handle and hid the blades agin. Looking in her bag she said " Well it looks like i have about 100 assorted coins total."

"Not bad.Enough to buy a decent meal and maybe some equipment...but Im getting ahead of myself." Dire stepped over a fallen tree. "Shall we find a place to set up camp?"

"Hmmmm." Dire thought for a moment. "Unless they have something important and thats the guards." He motioned for her to follow him. He climbed up on top of a rock overlooking the road. "They should be here soon." he whispered.

Dire could see the horses round a corner and come at them. "Yup, those are guard horses. But why so many?" After ten horses had rouneded the bend a large cart came also. It was spectatularly decorated, and two archers sat at ledges on each side. After it had come into view ten more guard horses came. Suddenly a horn blast sounded in the woods on the opposite side of the road. Two of the guards fell, arrows sprouting from their necks. the rest of the guards made a defensive circle around the cart. Bandits poured out of the woods and began to attack.

Dire said nothing but suddenly flourished his sword and leaped from the rock, falling on a bandit and letting his sword impale him. He stood up and pulled the blade form the bandit. Hmmm....odd. The blade had lost it's enchantment. Ah, well. He spun and, in one arc, decapitated one bandit and cut off anothers hand. Only twelve guards were left now. The bandits kept coming, though. Archers hidden in the brush shot into the fray at guards.

Kearen snuck around and started ambushing bandits. Her sharp staff-blades cut through the archers bows and bodys. She spun around and lept into the fray her staff twilring. Her eyes glinted, thire strange color scaring some of the bandits. Kearen had to admit this was fun!

Dire glanced over and was about to call out to see if Kearen was doing ok, but then he saw do a backflip and cut donw two bandits. He shut his mouth and went back to fighting. Only eight guards were left now, bodies littered the ground. Suddenly the bandits stopped coming out of the woods, and a shape jumped to the ground from a tall tree. It was the man he had stolen the sword from. He was carrying two shortswords and was in a light glass armor. Two men jumped down with him. They were carrying strange wepons. It looked like a bow, but it was handheld and turned sideways. The man saw Dire's sword. "Ah!" "I see you have my sword. Give it back." His voice had a northern accent. Dire glanced at Kearen and gave her a signal to stay back. Dire strode up to the man, then, quickly, ran him through with the sword.
After that all the bandits rushed from the woods, maybe thirty in all. Some of them carried the strange wepons that the other two had. Dire ran straight at them, sword held diagonally from his side.

Kearen brought her staff down on one of the strange bow-things. Her blades cut right trough them. With a yell she brougt dow more. She ran to the assitance of a gaurd. Kearen glance at Dire to see how he was doing. Well he's pretty good with that sword she thought.

Dire jumped straight into two guards, his sword spinning in glittering arcs. They fell with a cry. He picked up a silver longsword dropped by a guard. Now he had two silver longswords, spinning in deadly twirls. The bandits gradually began to falter, five guards remained. The bandits fell back, accually yelling at each other for being stupid and bad shots with their "crossbows" Strange. Dire turned and wiped sweat off of his brow. He sheathed both sowrds and ran to see if Kearen was ok.
