A Forbidden Fairytale Love

[Risk]

Despite Ginger being a target, Doran was also a very large target. Everyone knew he would take over when Ginger finally passed. But he was a brute, he wasn't as big as Gerard, but he was agile and clever. He was using their desire to hurt him against them, when they went after Jackie, like many did he came down on them hard. The two of them were beautiful on the field, but like Lucius and Ginger had been together.

Gerard sank into a blood lust, moving through the field. He took point of a large group of werewolves and telchi. It wasn't until Sarah's men reached them was he slowed down. These men lived to kill, that's all they new form the day they were born.

Next to Dresden, Sarah was grinning as she looked at the new enemy. She drew her blades. "Let them loose!" She shouted suddenly. At first nothing but then those with good ears could hear the barks and howls, then more came. They couldn't be heard very well under the roar of battle but Gerard turned as a large pack of very angry dogs came rushing in. They were strong, fast and huge. Barrel chested and strong they knocked a few unsuspecting people to the ground, ripping out their throats, they didn't stop to feed either, they just pushed into the crowds helping the no telchi Sarah had.

Ginger didn't recognize him either at all but she smiled and nodded to him. Then she took another deadly shot, pushing forward against Dresden's troops.

Rain managed to settle as she reached out and touched the children, being sure they were all still there. "We have to get you back to the fight." She whispered and nosed at his neck gently. "Take us though, Sarah knows I"m here, I don't think it's safe any more here." She still shook but was in mother mode and very protective.

Jackie was like a graceful dancer of death, ribbons of blood flowing from her blades as she spun. Her fighting style was that of the women of the far east: precise, quick, deadly, and hauntingly beautiful. Many men who thought they were safely out of harm's way never knew what hit them, they were killed so quickly.

When the dogs appeared, Erin gave the order for the army to draw back just briefly away from the dogs. Once they did, archers set a predetermined line of the field on fire, catching many of Dresden's best men in the inferno. Thanks to lines torn into the ground long before this, the fire would only spreasd toward Dresden, not Ginger.

But as Shi'a joined Ginger, Sarah recieved a new ally, one she'd only heard of in legend. He was a massive brute, far larger than any man on the field and any man anyone had ever seen. He was dressed in fur and steel, marking him as some sort of viking warrior. He looked at Sarah and Dresden, "I see ya could use some 'elp."

Kass looked at Rain, about to say no, but he realized she was right. "Alright, come on. I just hope Haakon hasn't gotten there yet." Even Rain had no idea who this Haakon was, but it sounded chillingly familiar.

[Risk]

Rain remained right with Kass despite how tired she was nothing was slowing her down. She knew they had to get back.

Sarah looked up and grinned, "That we do, they keep making more friends." She bowed her head a little in respect. She knew enough to respect the man and any help he could bring. If nothing else this was a bloody war. "They're breaking up the men I think it's time we stopped them." She looked at Dresden and kissed his cheek. "I'll be back for you. I love you." She whispered into his ear before letting him go and getting on her horse.

Doran got caught by one of the hounds and was knocked to the ground with a growl. The metal of his armor screeched as it was torn apart. But it was most just armor so he kicked away the dog and threw a knife into it's side. He rolled to his feet with ease and glanced at Jackie. "Watch those things they're a worse bite than Gerard." He laughed a bit and finished off the hound as it lunged at him again, taking his knife back as well before catching the next attacker.

Gerard just grinned as she saw the fire it just added fire to his own blood and he lunged through it rolling to knock out the few flames he did manage to catch and taking a dog with him crushing it's throat under his foot. He let out a deadly howl that he knew his beloved would hear. He knew it would tell Erin that he was doing well and thriving in battle. He was going after his sword and acting just like a sword himself cutting a deadly wound into the enemy. He was bleeding now but none of it was bad, it just looked worse than it was.

The huge Viking-like warrior mounted his own steed, a massive black Shirehorse with heavy armor. He brought out a brutish axe with a grin, and his own few men were right behind him. Haakon Viinsen, the Viking warlord and his twenty pillagers. Haakon went straight for Gerard, letting his men spread out. "Hey, puppy!" Haakon roared laughingly as he approached. "C'mon, there, lad! I need a new vest, an' yer hide's jes right!" He raised his axe in challenge, his eyes crazed with bloodlust.

Jackie rolled in beside Doran again, "Leave some for me, angel!" She laughed, carefree even as she took life after life in her path.

[Risk]

Gerard growled and it was like a perfect match off, no one bothered him as he turned to Haakon. He was drenched in blood from the men he'd been killing. He knew this man though and shift his stance. "You know I'd say the same to you, but beasts like you are too ugly to wear." He snickered and bared his fangs at Haakon.

"But they're falling onto my sword love." Doran complained, lowering his ears. Then he looked to the new men, more importantly Haakon. "We need to get to Gerard." He suddenly whimpered. "Jackie this isn't good, I trust my brother but he's fresh."

Sarah moved in silence, no one saw her running the outside rim of the army. She was able to close in with the men that saw her silenced by her blades. Then she slipped into range of Ginger. If Ginger hadn't been expecting something as underhanded she would have been killed by Sarah. But she was ready and they both fell from Gingers horse, hitting the ground with a thud. "Lucky little bitch." Sarah hissed at her and struggled to have her blade make that final blow.

[Taiylor Wallace]

Haakon laughed uproariously, "You ain't so pretty yerself, boy, but I'll git over it. An' maybe I'll take that little prince o' yours too, I've been lookin' t'find myself a whore." He knew that would strike something in Gerard's nerves, the idea of another man taking Erin.

Jackie nodded, "Make your way to him, I'll cover your back!" She bolted to his side, creating more space with a sweep of her blade.

[Risk]

"That is something you will never have a chance at!" Gerard growled and lunged. He knew better of course but Erin was his and no one else would have him. He brought his sword around in a huge swing not ready to face this man yet in unarmed combat.
Doran fought tooth and nail to reach his brother but Haakon's men were in his way every step of the way, it felt like he wasn't gaining any ground with these men. He'd cut someone down and then another would force him back. It was frustrating even for him.

Ginger fought back and finally kicked Sarah away. What was left of Ginger, Sarah could see in her eyes. She was like a moving body with no soul of it's own just the spirit of the people with her. The eyes of a werewolf and the body of a human. She didn't scream or speak she just did and what she did was deadly. They met again in combat that seemed surreal. Ginger was twisting and turning and moving just as Sarah did. They were both getting badly beaten because of it. But it didn't matter the men were fighting with Doran as their leader now and he wasn't faltering even in the slightest.

[Taiylor Wallace]

Haakon laughed and fought like the wild bear of a man he was, deadly with his axe. But as they fought, he insulted Gerard's prowess by jumping off his horse and making himself a more reachable target, "I'll give ya a little better chance, eh, boy?" He grinned.

Jackie joined Doran fighting forward. She made a daring move that threw several men out of the way, but also left her with a gash down her outer thigh. "Go!" She yelled to Doran now that he had a chance to gain a lot of ground.

[Risk]

Doran winced, brushing his hand against Jackies cheek as he ran past. He body checked the first man in his way then the next was killed by the blow of his shield.

Gerard simply growled now, not caring to give this man the pleasure of a response and he used his anger to fight. He swung again at Haakon, his mind wishing he could look back and check on Erin. He knew he couldn't though, this man would kill him if he slipped up.

[Taiylor Wallace]

Haakon was a risk-taker, but a professional one. He allowed himself to take an off blow from Gerard, just to get in close and hack at Gerard's stomach. He was having a grand time of it too.

Jackie held up, protecting Doran's back, and finally, Doran reached Gerard. But Haakon saw him coming, and whipped around to hack at him as well.
