On The Path.. to nowhere

[Raven]

(OOC: You may want to look at the picture r3dmm.com/Pictures/book.png )
BIC:
*A large Etherial Skeleton looks down at her.. the skeleton moves slowly, as if it were considering this person. It stares at her.. watching.*

[Midnight]

*The woman watched the strange creation, staring at it as she backs off a couple of steps while still looking for something in the room to use now as a possible weapon as anything else.*

*Her jaw clenches slightly as she looks to Raven with wide eyes and then the book trying to plan a way to remove it from her. She finally finds a large stick which she reaches for quickly grabbing and holding it diagonally in front of herself.*

[Raven]

*Raven convulses and slips backward onto the bed. The Skeleton continues watching the stranger for a moment, but then turns its attention to Raven, who is now unconcious. It puts its hands.. into her head...*

[Suh Wok]

*Suh Wok bursts into the room, glances at the scene, and rushes over to the stranger, putting him between the Skeleton and her.*

"Don't do it. Let it finish what it is doing, the dungeon is trying to stabilise itself. The knowledge in that book contradicts everything Raven has expereienced. There cannot be two dungeons occupying the same mind. This is why I say it was dangerous"

*Raven lets out a cry of pain, and falls silent again. The Skeleton continues unheeded*

[Midnight]

*The woman looks at the man a moment still holding the stick in front of her like a weapon, looking from the skeleton to Raven as she lets out the cry of pain and then goes silent. Her eyes narrowing on the strange as her grip tightens on the stick her eyes narrowing a moment*

I hope you are telling me the truth because if it hurts her I will be hurting you.

[Raven]

*The Skeleton turns toward the two. It speaks, it's voice is weak, but yet it seems to vibrate the room and penetrate to the very minds of those present*

"I almost have the memories you seek master. I am ready"

[Suh Wok]

*Suh Wok smiles at the stranger, and speaks back to the skeleton (Without turning)*

"Good. Time to leave I think."

*A strange rainbow glow appears around Suh Wok. He smiles at the stranger*

"Kill her"

*Suh Wok starts to fade*

[Midnight]

*The stranger blinks a moment taking a step back as she watches Suh Wok starting to fade from sight the words uttered between the two only truly sinking in moments later as she lifts up the wood , putting it into one hand and throwing it like a spear towards Suh Wok, hoping the point would cause some damage or if go through him do some damage to the skeleton putting as much strength and force into the throw as she can while she prepares to turn around and run.*

[Raven]

*The 'spear' passes through the Suh Wok and strikes the skeleton. In a bright dazzling display of light, the skeleton rears back and begins to tear itself apart. Soon the light fades and all that is left is Raven and the stranger. Raven stirrs on the bed, and sits up.. or at least tries to before slumping back down, cluthing at her head*

[ModNote: Continued for Suh Wok in An Unexpected Turn of Events...]

[Midnight]

*The womans arm lifts to protect her eyes from the blinding flash, her knees shaking slightly until the skeleton completely disappears. Her arm drops slowly before she rushes over to Raven grasping her arm and lifting a palm to her forehead.*

You seem to be one that loves to draw harm to yourself you know that?

[Raven]

*Raven looks up at the stranger, and blinks a few times.*

"I'm sorry... do I know you?"

[Midnight]

*The stranger woman lowered her head slightly, her hand lowering from Raven's forehead, some of the short blonde hair covering her eyes slightly moment.*

Oh..just perfect...absolutely perfect.

*She whispers half to herself.*

Well you sort of know me. We met just today a little way from here, along the path to Wolfenden and well, there was a book, a man and a skeleton and something happened.

[Raven]

*Raven narrows her eyes at the stranger and pauses a few moments*

"Yes.. I do know you... we met at Knightmare Con '91... Maris.. mary.. er.. Mary?"

[Midnight]

*A eyebrow raises slightly at Raven extremely lost and unsure look crossing her face.*

No, we only just met to day. What is ninety one? A place? A rather strange sounding place if you ask me.

[Raven]

*Raven frowns and stares into space for a moment*

"So.. er... when do we go on..?"

*Raven takes in the room around her for the first time. She then looks down at herself, a look of both shock and terror coming on.*

"Wha..wha.. ahhuhuh..... b..wah?"

*Raven gibbers for a while.. getting off the bed still staring at herself. She walks around, examining her hands, the armour, the weapons. She turns to the stranger with a question on her lips, but as she begins to mouth the first word, she clutches at her head, and once again collapses to her knees.*
