Pitzkrieg suddenly saw the demon known as Valken appear before him and was about to take back the tome that he came for. He growled at the demon and rose his mace up with both hands wanting to crush the life out of Valken. This would have worked if the shards from Kyoto's icicle attack did not suddenly smash into its chest and digging in sending him to stumble backwards. The demon dropped it arm holding the mace while the other held onto one of the shards. He was majorly wounded from the attacks. He then took a silver arrow to the back of his knee dropping him to a kneeling position. The fiend simply looked to Valken as it felt the horrible sting from the silver arrow. Fiends such as himself were weak against such things and it pained him greatly. He wanted nothing more to reach out and squeeze Valken's neck but it did not have the energy. "My brethren will succeed where I have failed." He said in deep breathes. His time was short and he did not know what he could do with what life he had left. All he did was let the next volleys of arrows hit him sending him to collapse onto the roof top. --------------------------------------------------- All hell had broken loose and every elf had mobilized fighting the demon hordes the best the could but it was beginning to be rather futile. "Get the Queen and the Seers out of here, we will hold these vile monsters but not for long!!!!" Yelled one elf. While others now seeing the pit fiend dead concentrated on the large dragon. They saw that their arrows were hitting and continued their best. Ishmael saw Valken on top of the roof retrieve the stolen tome and smiled nodding to the demon. 'Nice work friend.' He then noticed several elves head for the main tree to help the Queen escape and he turned to face Valken once more. Not sure if he would hear him or not but yelled out anyways. "Get Nova out of here!!!!" He yelled. He then rushed over to the main tree to lend them his aid. ---------------------------------------------- Cassandra watched as the dragon flew overhead and she sneered at it. She had to run back to the guest house if she was to re arm herself. She had a simply idea of what to do against it. She ran as hard as she could and moved to her room grabbing her belongings. Placing everything where it should go, the rapier at her right hip and the holster to her hand crossbow on her left side with the quiver hanging on its opposite. She then rushed back outside ignoring the fact that Jameson was still laying on the floor. Once she was outside she brought forth her crossbow making sure the bolt fitted to it was secured. The shadow of the giant monster flew over her as she did so causing her to look up. She then took aim and had to lead him for a bit and then fired her bolt. She had then cast Darkness on it so that when it hit a nice globe of pitch black would envelope its head. She just hoped it nailed it in the head some where and not on the body. She then turned and saw a demon that she had not seen in her entire life. The demon was huge black, and had horns all about its body. Cornagun smirked as he felt the fear rush through her body. His aura made certain of that. He rose and thrust a hand in her direction causing a lightning bolt to launch its self out. She was able to dodge it though but felt her self launched from the explosion. He then proceeded inside and saw Jameson on the ground fainted. The elves within the room tried to stop it but with a great swing of its spike chain it sent them to the ground to join Ruhdivar in the afterlife. It saw Nova in the corner of its eye but it had some business to attend to. It's eyes turned to Jameson and it smirked. It reached down and grabbed the silver wolf and threw it upon its back impaling it on the spikes that poked from it. Jameson would then wake up to see the very things poking out from its stomach and chest. The horned devil the took flight smashing its body upwards just like the pit fiend but he was only doing it to cause more pain to the man. Cornugon then reached back around and pulled Jameson off rather violantly causing blood to spill all about him. He then threw Jameson down and swung with his spiked chain. The hit was enough to break the were wolf's spine as it bounced off the roof and into the street. Cornugon then flew at the damaged body of Jameson. "You think this is enough to kill me? I am a....." Jameson was cut off with stomp on his chest and the horned demons might swing of his spiked chain which tore Jameson's face right off. With one more swing the great fiend was able to take the werewolf's head off. "No but ripping your head off might..." He laughed and then moved to where the head went lifting it up and placing it about its belt where a nice hook hung. "Barghest would be glad to see your head, plus I would gain me an ally in the long run." He laughed and then turned to see the paladin Ishmael running for the main tree. He flicked his nose with his thumb and came charging . --------------------------------------- Eliphas made one good leap and with a flap of his wings to give him a boost he landed upon the top of the wall. The elves all fired their arrows at him but the real thing was much different then some illusion. The flaming body of the demon seemed to burn the arrows before they were able to deal a mighty blow. That did not stop one elf from drawing its long blade and charge at him. Eliphas responded with throwing up its arms and swinging his mighty claymore cleaving the elf in half. He then roared with laughter. Aries quickly joined in with her own assault of arrows that burned into the targets they hit with deadly accuracy. Not a single arrow missed that she fired from her flaming composite bow. She was able to manuever as well while launching her shots at them. It was all she could do to prevent the arrows from dropping her down. She was a baatezu after all not Tenar'ri. Her kind were weak to silver and that gave Eliphas a edge against them. He had little weaknesses and was very feared.
