Chapter 6: Chase
(Explicit Chapter, Killing and Swearing a Such, rule of the blog, enjoy!)
Azeel and Malachi turned right and ran up the ramp in the old dwarven city. Malachi lead with his bow out and an arrow nocked but not drawn. He turned right at the top of the ramp and the mage and guard were waiting for them, the mage casts a fireball and tosses forward. Malachi side steps and loses and arrow which catches the mage in the heart and drops him. Azeel unsheathes his sword and engages with the spear wielding guard. Azeel side steps the jab and hacks downward on the spear shaft, which splinters in half. Stepping forward he brings the blade down on the guard cleaving him deep into his chest.
Malachi had continued out past the guards on the tower, he had nocked his arrow again and was looking around the cavern. Azeel kneeled by at the end of the hall with his shield covering his body and the wall some of the extra skin.
“MALACHI! WHAT’S THE PLAN?!” Azeel shouted.
“Umm, HERE!” Malachi pointed down a small set of stairs.
Azeel looked down the steps, they were almost vertical. Malachi was sliding and hopping down the stairs, Azeel moved to follow but slipped half way down and fell hard on his shield. His shoulder popped when he landed and the air was knocked out of his lungs. He laid there and tried to breath and he groaned in pain.
“My shoulder, my shoulder.” Azeel groaned.
“Hold, this isn’t going to hurt.” Malachi said as he pushed Azeel’s shoulder back into its socket.
Standing up Azeel followed behind Malachi deeper into the earth, into the deepest part of the old Dwarven city. They moved as fast as possible, but slowed near old dwemer machines not to wake them. Voices of the pursuing men echoed behind them, they took as simple a path possible so not to get lost.
Azeel slowed and breathed deep as they entered a large open throne room. They could hear singing and voices coming from the main cavern were Utadeek’s body was lying. They crossed the room and sat down on some old rubble, they caught their breath.
From the other side of the room two dozen men burst out of the large double doors. Malachi and Azeel stood and readied their weapons. Their opponents stood in a single file line, all carrying swords and shields. The last man to enter the room as an Argonian. Red and black scales covered his body and a bunch of feathers red and black on his head. He carried a steel longsword on his back, he raised his hands above his head.
“JOIN US! THERE IS NOTHING TO FEAR! JOIN THE ARGONIANS! THE REMAINING PURE ARGONIANS! MY DEAR BROTHER AZEEL, YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND ME! YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND UTADEEK!”
Azeel’s arms went slack and they hung at his side, “Utadeek. What, how?”
“I HAVE BEEN REBORN! FROM THE POWER OF THE HIST! I WILL LEAD ONLY THE PURE ARGONIANS TO RULE ALL OF TAMRIEL!”
Malachi drew his bow and fired an arrow at Utadeek. The arrow flew forward and but was stopped an inch from the lizard's face. He didn’t raise his arms or flinch, just caught the arrow as if it could cast magic with his mind and not use his arms. The arrow clattered on the ground harmlessly, Utadeek turned his head sideways. “You dare attack a GOD?!”
Utadeek turned, “In your passing moments remember that pure Argonians spilled your blood.” He walked back towards the door. “Kill them.”
