By now, the herd was thinning, and he was seeing a dim light at the end of a very dark, corpse strewn tunnel. He was tired though, using tihs much magic at once was not good for him. He could taste the coppery taste of blood on his tongue, not to mention the numerous little cuts on his body was bleeding him slowly but surely. This was pretty much classic Hildebrand tactics. The damn woman loathed doing anything by her self, always sending her minions to do the heavy lfting. And she knew he had come unprepared to face a throng of undead and was now wearing him down slowly but surely. He danced back and smashed the butt of the spear into the mouth of a armless draugr that tried to bite him. Then he pushed forward, driving the draugur into another, toppling them both. It was looking grim however, becouse while they were growing less agile and their numbers were dwindling, everything was hurting. Johan spun arund, driving the spear into another when a blade stabbed him the shoulder. The magic of his coat flared, keeping it from getting trough. But the force knocked him onto his back. He expected them to swarm but they stopped. Something was making a awfull lot of noise in the back. Then he saw a draugr go flying and he was as confused as he was terrified. Backing away from the source of the chaos, he killed whatever beings that turned to follow him into the room. He stared trough the doorway at the hulking creature. [color=#99ebff]”The hell are you supposed to be?”[/color] was all that escaped him as he stared. Was the man dressed as a damn Alligator. What one earth was wrong with these people. "I am the guiding light in the sewers of chaos! I am the coin that falls through the grates that lands on it's side refusing to stay down! I am Sewer Gator!" He said as the pads of armor on his forearms were swung into an undead charging towards him with reckless abandon. "The Dead rise today to make new graves for the living, they will fail in this endevor." [color=#99ebff]"You... Do you always talk like that?"[/color] Rune said, not quite believing his ears. He hated New York some times. "Think maybe one to many coins fell down onto your head mate." "I flow as straight as the river of time! As do my punches!" He said clipping a draugr with his backhand and following up by grabbing anothers arm and swinging it into the crowd. [color=#99ebff]"Uh-huh... By the way. Time is a ocean, not a river."[/color] Rune got up with the help of his spear. Groaning as he felt like he had taken a few of those punches. He smashed another Draugrs face in with his spears, embolden by his new strange ally. [color=#99ebff]"Well What ever you are, you likely saved my life."[/color] He said as he speared another and drove it into two others, vaulting over them using his spear as a vaultpole. He landed next to the Man-Gator and stood back to back with him. The Draugr hesitated. Clearly, their master had left them when the turn began to turn. "I heed the call of the city, and it cried out in pain. These things endanger the lives of city workers and homeless folk. I have seen no end to them, and try as I might I fear I shall not find the source of this today." [color=#99ebff]The source is a woman called Hildebrand"[/color] Rune said as he despatched another one. "She is a necromancer. No doubt about it. These things are called Draugr. They are.... Like zombie... Only they are vikings.... Well. Based of Norse Magic. You'll have to excuse the jargon. Magic is terribly convoluted." "Magic is as strange and as fleeting as the wind. But fists. They can still smash, and smash they will! TO BATTLE!!" [color=#99ebff]...Dear Odin make it end:. ."[/color] Rune mumbled under his breath before the two once more went into battle and wrecked havoc. The last of the Draugr was finished off some 10 minutes later. No doubt Hildebrand was off somewhere else, massing another horde. That one would be more specified, more dangerous. Now that she knew Rune was onto her, she would conjure some really bad things. [color=#99ebff]So.. What do I call you big guy?"[/color] Rune asked as he wrenched his spear out of the skull of the last Draugr. "I am Sewer Gator. And there will be more, I have seen more. For now we savor our victory with drinks. I know a place not far. Come Heavilly Cloaked Friend, to the Hero Bar!!" [color=#99ebff]"Call me Rune."[/color] Johan said. [color=#99ebff]"A drink sounds good"[/color] In the back of his head his sisters voice echoed. 'You drink to much'
