Gerodal turned towards Chris and glared at the young assassin. Leaning in towards Chris Gerodal hissed through his clenched teeth, "I would rather die then join with an impudent little puke that sympathizes with DRAGONS!" With that last word, Gerodal's sword whipped out of it's sheath and sliced through the air where Chris' head had been a fraction of a second earlier. Gerodal used the spin from his swing to bring his left leg into Chris' stomach.
"Oof!" Chris grunted as Gerodal's steel boot connected with a solid whump! Chris tried to do a backwards somersault to escape Gerodal's next kick. But Gerodal didn't try to kick Chris. Instead Gerodal brought his sword into a downward thrust, pinning Chris by the cloak, tunic and shirt to the ground. Chris tried to roll sideways to rip the blade out of his clothes, but found that he was facing the heel of Gerodals other foot.
CRACK! Chris felt more than heard his shoulder break. Ironically, it was the same shoulder that Gerodal had first skewered to the ground not to long ago. Leaning over Chris, Gerodal spat in Chris' face. "Remember this well young whelp. No matter how much you try to gain my help, even if the entire Wolpack region were being burned by some beast," Gerodal glanced at Strabo with a look full of hatred, "I wouldn't help you."
Standing back up, Gerodal drew his sword from the ground and wiped it clean on Chris' cloak. "Remember that well." Gerodal gave one last hate filled glance at Strabo, then turned and walked off to his own camp. Every soldier gave him a wide berth and made sure not to get in the way of this particular old man.
