[b]"Catch this!"[/b] Donnel tossed his hook at the big guy, wrapping around his arm before hooking into his sleeve. Not the flesh as Donnel wanted, but he'll take whatever he can get. He tried to pull against the giant, figuring that he could match the monster toe-to-toe. His first mistake. Certainly the giant vampire seemed surprised that he could not overpower Donnel, and the masked marauder held his ground. But then the vampire lord simply used both hands to wrath the chain towards him, and Donnel with it. [b]"Shit!"[/b] He shouted as he was pulled towards the vampire. Then he raised his axe high into the air, slashing down at the hunter. Donnel raised his shield at an angle, and soon was thrown away from the front of the horde. Donnel looked down at his arm. It was numb, likely bruised, but fine. His shield had taken the brunt of the blow. Speaking of it, it was also sundered in half. Had Donnel not have his shield, he'd likely be down to one arm, or dead even. The vampire lord was certainly more powerful than Donny had first thought, but all the better when he slays the man. With his hook still around his arm, Donnel stood up, hand on his axe, ready for the second go. The vampire wouldn't get another chance to pull Donnel in as he slashed through the chain; he had another hook so he wasn't worried about loosing one. Instead Donnel did something horrible; he had tossed another hook at one of the children, expecting the lord or another vampire to intercept the attack. And during that momentary distraction, Donnel would've charged at the lord, cleaving his blade to split the vampire's head from his neck.
