Tuco on 7/5/2003 at 03:25
With that, he reached down with one hand and seized the semi-conscious warrior by the scruff of the neck, hurling him far out into the lava pool that covered one side of the cavern.........
((you're very good at this action stuff, Jordana =))
"And it ends so, Honorable assassin." Mutters Tuco as he snickers towards Ryushi, who was rapidly sinking into the lava. But it looked like Ryushi was preparing a spell...
Tuco, confident in his defeating Ryushi, turned to face the army that Exile had under his command. Snickering, Tuco realized the fatal weakness this otherwise indestructable army suffered.
Drawing upon the inner energy that surrounded his being, Tuco called to focus a mundane spell that he needed to get through this. He played the spell in his head immeasurable times quickly, like every other spell he would cast. His center of being found, he focused his energies on the spell. It wouldn't fail to cast.
Using his concentration of anger, destruction and hatred, Tuco raised his hand at the Orcish troops in rows of three. He spoke a single word, 'Madness'.
The feeble minds of the orcs shattered. Their once strong rank and file organization fell into disarray and confusion. Immediately dropping their weapons, they fled. However, they had very little place to go. Most of them ran into the lava, never to be seen again. One, who was missing his scrotum, managed to run into a wall, knock himself out, and hit the floor with a thud.
"The minds of the weak govern strong bodies, but the bigger they are, the harder they fall."
Tuco turned toward Exile, he grinned at figure of Jordana in the short distance, then brough his manical eyes on Exile.
"So here stand you, Exile." Utters Tuco.
"Let's get on with the killing!" Squels Lilacor.
As Tuco raised his sword, Ryushi rose from the lava he was previously cast into. Like an angel he floated above the lava, unscathed and unhurt. Landing he nodded to Jordana, then turned towards Tuco and Exile.
((The question is, will Exile allow Ryushi to have the soul of Tuco, or vica versa? Perhaps a 4 person fight will insue. at least two people should die in this. I would say the outcome would be best if Jordana and Ryushi won and took the soulstone for themselves. But please for the love of all this is cool in the world, imbue me in a sword and dual weild me with Lilacor!))

(( Actually, that's a pretty good idea that would work well in a mod... How about this...
Exile writes the ending where Tuco wins.
I write the ending where Exile wins.
And Jordana/Ryushi will write the ending where they win... they'll do their own since it's a two person effort type and they have good charisma together...
IS that a good idea or is this me talking out of my ass because it's late and I've had an incredibly weird, shitty day?))

I like the way Tuco thinks :cheeky: I don't think Exile would willingly allow us to have the soul of Tuco, so it looks as if a four way scrap is indeed on the cards......

We could always donate you to the Mournhold Artifact museum :cheeky: No don't worry, we couldn't have all that awesome power go to waste; rest assured that you'll have an adventurous afterlife juicing the most powerful blade in the history of Tamriel.... now we just have to think of a cool name for it...

Sounds good to me, if the other two agree? :)

((Sounds fine, except I almost fell down the stairs on my way down, not to mention the fact that if I'm caught down here I won't be allowed on for... weeks... I might just go ahead and end this now. Jordana, you can edit it, take out parts, etc. I don't really mind what happens. You've got the basic idea. 'Cept I didn't include the thing with Jordana and Ryushi... You can do that. I've left the ending in your hands Jordana! Even the death of Tuco. Tell me what you think... Probably bad. And yes! I think we should definately imbue Tuco's soul into a sword. ... Heh.))
The Dragon Bone Cuirass shone brightly, specks of lava running down the hard surface. Ryushi clenched and unclenched his fists. He was shaking again, his power beyond his control. They were all his enemies... all of them! With one last feeble attempt Ryushi overpowered his own urge to shout out his war cry and replaced it with three words. "Don't... Hurt.. JORDANA!" At the sound of her name she looked up, amazed to see Ryushi standing there before them.
And then Ryushi let out a long, deep battle cry. He unsheathed his sword and ran at Tuco, their blades meeting in yet another shower of sparks. Their powers clashed, the might of a warrior and the power of a battle mage, locked in combat.
And though, with all his power, Ryushi was unable to over come the might of Tuco. Ryushi fought gallantly, but as soon as Tuco got in a strike, everything went down hill. Tuco tripped Ryushi and slammed the hilt of his sword across the back of his skull.
Ryushi fell to the ground and was caught by another strike that cut into his cuirass. Lilacor was striking rapidly, handled by Tuco, slicing inbetween the plates of Ryushi's armor. Jordana tried again to rush forwards, to help Ryushi. She fired her crossbow at Tuco, but the bolt burst into flame and disappeared before it got close to Tuco's body.
Ryushi struggled to get up. Tuco brought his foot down hard onto Ryushi's back and whispered into his ear. "So... The Dragonbone Cuirass protects you from fire... It does not, however, protect you from steel."
Lilacor was raised in a death blow. Ryushi saw the opening Tuco had left due to his own arrogance. He pushed himself up, Lilacor missing him by a fraction of an inch, and brought his fist into Tuco's gut.
Tuco backed up, the armor under his robe dented. Ryushi grinned and flourished his blade. Tuco screamed out in rage, flames erupting around his body. Tuco grabbed his sword and ran forwards. Ryushi brought up Chrysamere and the two blades met with a sharp crack!
The Chrysamere had been cracked.
Tuco laughed out loud. "You cannot beat me Ryushi. You know it's impossible... You're weakening. I can feel it. YOU CANNOT BEAT ME!"
Blood dripped down from Ryushi's mouth as he spoke. "I know. That's why I have him."
Time seemed to slow down. Tuco began to turn his head slowly, but Exile was already there. By an unforseen blow, Tuco was kicked powerfully in the jaw and stumbled backwards. Exile draw his blade and slashed Tuco across the chest and again across the arm before Tuco could bring up his own sword in defense.
The two battled perilously close to the lava. The heat could be felt by both. Ryushi turned to Jordana. "Get down, now. This time, I mean it."
Jordana hesitantly crouched and Ryushi smiled to himself. He held out his arms and shouted, "Tuco! Watch your back!"
Both fighters turned to Ryushi, just in time to his body burst into a more natural flame. Then the flame expanded into a dome, encompassing everything inside the Citadel. The fires burned away at rock, glass and Ebony. Tuco and Exile were both protected somewhat, but the force knocked them backwards. Exile lost his footing, slipped and fell down towards the lava. Tuco's own scream of defiance was interrupted and he fell backwards. Exile had grabbed Tuco's robe!
"If I die... I'M TAKING YOU WITH ME!" shouted Exile. Tuco scrambled helplessly, trying to gain leverage, but Exile dragged him over and down.
Ryushi breathed heavily. Both figures hit the lava with a splash.
"Ryushi..." whispered Jordana. "His soul... We didn't..."
"Shh..." Ryushi held up a finger and waited expectantly. He was sweating, his clothes were torn and his armor was nearly useless.
Everything was silent. There was only the sound of lava dripping into the great pool below.
Everything erupted. Tuco was carried into the air on a pillar of flame. "RYUSHI!" He relled over his own powers. "I told you! You cannot beat me! How many times must I tell you? My powers are limitless!"
Ryushi took a step forwards. "No. You are weakened Tuco... You know another blast like that could kill you. Now, you're probably wondering, 'Does Ryushi have enough magicka left to cast another one of those?' " Ryushi was grinning insanely. "You've got to ask yourself one thing, Tuco. 'Do I feel lucky?' " Ryushi's fingers flexed. "Well? Do ya, punk?"
In the silence you could almost hear Tuco thinking. And then he slowly levitated towards them.
"I'd say... I feel incredibly lucky. You on the other hand... are bluffing."
Ryushi swallowed hard. "...Oh."
((I edited that part I didn't like (on the second page.) And as for Exile... Lava might or might not kill him... Hmm... It's up to you Jordana, if we're all writing alternative endings.))

Still hogging the fighting and shouting orders I see, male Nords are so testosterone poisoned :p (only joking-don't take that seriously)

Do be careful, won't you? :eek:
When I lived with my parents a couple of years ago, my dad used to unplug the internet connection and hide the adaptor in his bedside cabinet to stop me going online at night *frown*
I really have to get to bed, but I'll be back tomorrow evening and will write more then-this is what I have planned......
I'm just about to marshall all my destructive powers (as yet unused) and save your life (hope that won't put too much of a dent in your big Nord ego :cheeky: ) After that, we will turn against Tuco and jointly kick his ass, helped at the last minute by a seared and dying Exile who will rise from the lava to deal the death blow to Tuco. I'll trap his soul, and we'll stagger out into the light clutching the most powerful artifact in Tamriel.
After that....well, the Ryushi/Jordana thing was your idea. I think you should write it, I'm not much good at that kind of thing, and I really dislike babies :laff:
I'm sure you'll come up with something good :) I think Jordana is impressed already by the size of Ryushi's blade (sorry :cheeky: )
Lord Kahn on 7/5/2003 at 06:10
Ok, all of you are compiling this for me. I don't even know who's fighting who. Or what's happening.

Fine, fine... I don't like babies too much either, heh. And it doesn't put too much of a dent in his ego, due to the fact that he knows if you don't help him, he'd die.
Tuco on 7/5/2003 at 13:50
Man, I don't think I'll be able to top that. But I'll try, after Jordana finishes it... But I'm going to be gone most of the day... so I'll give Exile's ending tomorrow... ;)
Exile on 7/5/2003 at 16:24
I'm a slow writer, okay? And on top of that, I'm not just copying the majority of the story straight off the boards. Oh, and I *LOVE* how you have me get thrown into the lava and, with extreme dishonor, pull Tuco down with me.
Obviously, there are some points in the story, mainly in the ending, that are going to be quite different in everyone's retelling.
