A few moments earlier, a blue flash of light appears not to far from the cabin. From the light a strange figure appears, a figure that is not of this world. His name was Marlock Garison, and he was something known only as a tiefling, half human, half demon. He had pale skin, red eyes, a long devil's tail, and two small horns a petruded out of his short, white hair. He wore a black vest over a white shirt and had black pants but wore no shoes, which even if he wanted to wear them, it was kind of difficult with clawed feet. Strapped to his belt was a black rapier and as the blue light disappeared around him, he quickly pulled it out and scanned his surroundings. It was cold, dark, and rainy, but none of that bothered really. He noticed a cabin not to far away with the lights on but didn't see much else but trees. When he felt the cost was clear he pulled a crystal from his vest pocket and spoke into it. "Marlock to Niv, do hear me?" He waited a few seconds then the crystal began to glow blue.
"I hear you loud and clear Marlock, was the transport successful?" Said a voice that came from the crystal.
"Yep, now...what was my mission again, Niv?" Marlock said as he looked around.
"*sigh* don't you remeber? You are supposed to gather samples of organic plant life and bring it back to our dimension." Niv explained
"Oh ok...Wait a minute...i think i see something." Through the rain Marlock could see a dark figure sneaking up to what looked like the front door of the cabin.
"What is it Marlock?" Niv asked, half concerned, half excited. Marlock strained his eyes to peer through the wind and rain and saw what looked like a red haired man holding an axe.
"Looks like a male human...appears to be armed." Marlock explains.
"A human...ok Marlock, i want you follow this human and observe his actions, but don't get involved in whatever happens." Niv ordered
"Got it." With that Marlock casts a spell of invisibility and begins to follow the man up to the cabin. When they get up to the cabin, Marlock watches as the man kicks open after counting to three. The man falls on his back and Marlock sees a taller, much stronger looking man standing over him. This newcomer picks up the axe that was dropped and turns to say, "You see what happens when you fon't coapporate, other people get hurt." Marlock peered inside and from where he was and saw a girl tied to a chair crying and ankther man standing next to her.
Marlock begins to get an idea of what's happening and doesn't like it one bit. His sword begins to glow and a voice speaks to him.
"Marlock i know what you're thinking, and mustn't engage."
"But Vlad...they'll die..." Marlock says as he grits his teeth.
"We have orders to not get involved." Vlad, Marlock's rapier, says with no sense of empathy. Marlock see's the man raising the axe ready to strike his victim and can't stand it any longer.
"Screw orders..." Marlock gets up from his hiding place and, while still under the affects of invisibility, charges.
Jake was just in the middle of swinging his axe when it recoiled back into his face,as if he had just hit some invisble force. He grunted and held his bleeding forhead where the axe had hit him. He looked to see what he had hit but what he saw nearly made him crap himself. Standing over Mike was something that looked like it had just come from hell and was pointing it's flaming sword right at him. Marlock smiled a very toothy grin as he saw fear in his enemies eyes. Clearly he had never seen a tiefling before. He took advantage of the moment and attempted to scare Jake and Trevor shittless.
"Leave now and maybe i won't drag both your souls down to hell with me." Marlock said in the scariest voice he could come up with. Jake looked to see if Trevor was seeing this to but only saw him running right out back door. Jake looked at Marlock a second time and this time it looked like he was about to attack. Jake dropped the axe and ran after Trevor screaming his lungs out. When they were out of site, Marlock sheathed Vlad and turned to Vanessa who was now quivering in fear at the site of him.
"It's ok I'm Marlock Garison and i'm here to..." Marlock was cut short as Mike finally got up and punched Marlock in the back of the head.
"Ow! Damn it, is this how you treat your savior?" Marlock yelled rubbing the bav
Of his head.
