After a few second, sound of a fight alarmed. She rushed in the direction, but met face to face with more thuggish looking guys. She struggled a bit with her posture, getting ready for a fight. Just when she though it couldn't get any worse, one of the sneaked behind her and managed to tie her up. She struggled as the guys brought her into the direction where all the loud ruckus was going.
"Hey a little help, please!" Aleth hollered, wriggling around in the rope bindings.

(I'm gone for only a short while, and you all get in trouble. -grumbles to self- now exactly how many people am I saving? )
Rayl had been making sure no bandits had gotten out of the cave to block their entry, when Darius decided it would be a good idea to block the way out with flaming branches...which also meant that the cavalier was stuck outside and unable to help his comrades, as his horse now didn't want to go in EVEN more. Quite honestly though, Rayl seemed sort of entranced by the flames, the screams of the people from that village filling his head as his mind wandered back to that day, with the beating of wyvern wings up ahead...
...but when he snapped back to reality, he could still hear the wings, followed by a shriek...or roar, however Wyverns sound. Wyvern riders...deserters no doubt, otherwise why would they be there...and fighting each other...oh well.
Peering into the cave, he watched as the battle took a turn for the worse, as Rayne, Kaim, AND Aleth were now in trouble. So with sword drawn, he forced his horse to charge forward, up and over the flames. First off: Kaim, best not to let their Cleric die. he pull the man out of the way before thrusting his sword through the man's back ( -1 , +15xp) and continued on with a brief nod to the Cleric. Next off was Aleth obviously, before she was dragged off to a darker part of the caves. forcing his horse deeper in, he then grabbed the girl from the grip of the bandits, slicing the ropes while his horse took off back towards the light of then entryway (kicking a bandit in the face. Ha.), however, he did get an unusually well aimed hand axe to his right side (-6) and grumbled from the severe pain, but it was nothing a certain Cleric could fix as he pulled the weapon out of his side and tossed it to the ground. As Rayl set his mercenary friend down, looking over towards who he figured was Darius," Next time wait til' I'm INSIDE." and so he then went to aid Rayne, calling out some instructions, like the following:
" When on foot, trying stepping forward while striking with a lance!" " The enemy is using the darkness and your armor against you, try striking where they will jump!" "and I'd appreciate a heal Kaim."

Sireace aimed her sword for one last kill and quickly moved over to were Aleth and Kaim were no located. She jabbed her sword into one of the shadows, killing nothing more than cobwebs and spiders. She cursed, she wasn't used to this. She warily moved over to were Kaim and Aleth were, "You guys okay?" She asked, never taking her eyes off of the her shadowy surroundings. (Rayl to the rescue!..*throws confetti)

Aleth got up, grabbed the nearest bandit’s collar and began to punch the man hard. She punched and punched, until his face was horribly bloodied, her knuckles were badly beaten up afterwards. As she tried to feel her hands, the bones cracked a bit and stung from all the hitting. Dropping the man, she picked her sword back up and charged back into the frenzy.
“You think you can catch me off so easily?!?!”

Darius shouted a muffled apology at Rayl and kept fighting. This battle was taking a turn for the worst now, there were to many bandits. Darius could feel the pressure being exerted on him from the magic, his strength was starting to fade. Just when he thought things couldn't get any worse, he heard roars coming from farther in the cave. "Oh gods," He said horrified. It appeared that there were two wyverns coming from deaper in the cave. He jumped back a bit, as fear took hold of him. The wyverns were maddened by the shouts and fire, and were vicously lunging at anything that came near them. He couldn't do this. He would die here, and so would his new, if somewhat odd, friends. Darius suddenly felt a rush of strength coming back to him. He WOULD help. He wasn't just about to give up. This power was much stronger than normal. It was welling up inside him, and if he didn't let it out, he would explode. He let the power loose on the wyverns, flames exploding around and on their bodies. They were burned, despite their strong hide, and crashed to the ground on top of the riders trying to calm them. Suddenly the power Darius had felt left him. Well, if there happened to be any more wyverns, they would have to deal with them. There was no way he had enough magic left to do that again, he barely had enough to protect himself now.
(Woot! Critical!)

Sireace quickly moved back from Aleth, "Well..that awnsers my question." She said with a small grin. Suddenly she felt a huge heart blast, "What the-?" She yelled, quickly jumping back in surprise. One of the nearby wyverns fell, causing the earth around it to shake. Sireace couldn't take her eyes off of the battle feild for long however, there team was getting seperated. This was not good. ( good for you!)

A moment of battling later, Rayl began to evaluate the situation once more. It was obviously getting worse for them, and as he looked back, the flaming branches had now been smoldering, for the storm previously mentioned had started, and was already picking up. If they didn't get out now, they never would be able to. It was that and the fact that the Bandits were beginning to surround them," Everyone fall back outside before we're surrounded! We have to head for Etruria before the weather gets worse outside!"

Aleth had just bitten down on one of the bandit’s out from anger. For a second she thought it was a human, but it ended up being a wyvern. Quickly releasing her teeth, a lance grazing her side she made a run for it. On her way out she managed to punch a guy in the face and head butting another one. All the while her side spilling drops of blood from the lance attack. Well it wasn’t a very good start for her after the hangover. It could have been a whole lot worse, at least she was out of there.

(...aaaand Rayl has officially been separated from the others. D: dun worry, you'll see him again. ; D )
Dismounting his horse, sword at the ready, he headed on deeper into the cave, completely ignoring his strategy for everyone else. He was going to distract the bandits while they got away, using his horse if necessary. Now he knew he was at a severe disadvantage, the last time him fighting off horse being him being seven and thinking he was a knight. Charging down and past Aleth, he gave a simple signal (and a smile, though that couldn't be seen in the dark) for her to get the others out, before leaping on into the fray, disappearing, having been engulfed by the darkness of the cave.
He swung his sword, sort of thinking himself on horseback, though this did not help much, as he then had to quickly follow up with a thrust just to be able to actually strike the bandit before him, the same that had struck him with the hand axe, managing to stab him in the arm, where he quickly followed with a slice across his neck, sending the bandit down. However he didn't notice one of the Wyvern Riders, who smacked the cavalier across the back of the head with his lance, sending Rayl to the ground, knocked out, as the bandits tied him up and dragged him off, whereas more surged out from the deep end to engage the rest of the group, maybe actually take some woman hostage.
Rayl's horse simply ran after the others, almost as if unaware of the lack of a rider, though it was really just following orders...odd, but true.

(You won't get rid of me that easily!) Darius was fighting for his life, trying to escape the bandits. Everyone else was starting to run from the cave, but Darius wasn't quite so lucky. He was stuck with just his Tomb and wits to get him out of here. He was sending blasts of fire out as fast as he could, but it wasn't fast enough. The bandits were getting closer, and he was backed up against a wall. The only place left to go was deeper into the cave, and who knows how far back it went! A handaxe came close to hitting his head, and he decided that he had to retreat, there was no other way. He was running back down the cave for a few feet when the same wyvern rider who got Rayl jumped out of the shadows and clubbed him over the head. The last thing he heard as he was lost in the blackness surrounding him was, "That's another one. I'm gonna get a promotion for sure!" Darius was then out cold with nothing but his dreams for company.
(Besides, how would you escape with only one person? You wouldn't that's how! ^_~)

Rayne had been busy dealing with the stubborn bandit that seemed intent on destroying her. Suddenly he turned, heading for Sireace after her taunt. She silently thanked the other warrior. She heard Rayl call out instructions and she followed them, dispatching another bandit. Rayne heard the cry of a wyvern fill the air. She looked around but she couldn't find anyone. She heard Rayl call out to head to Etruria. She ran outisde the cave as more bandits seemed to pour from the cave. With the addition of Wyvern riders and their party bieng split up, they were at a serious disadvantage.
"Regroup!" She shouted, trying to draw the attention of her party members. Unfortunately this also drew the attention of the bandits. Three of them stalked menacingly toward her. She gripped her weapon and waited to see if anyone was out of the cave.

Sireace was begining to curse all over again, hanging aroudn with there peopel made it hard to kick the habit. She swung her sword in her usual ace, but it was doing no good. At this rate they would all be dead, or captured. Sireace's eyes flashed angerly, 'No!!' I won't be taken this easely! Three bandits charged her suddenly, (bandit -12 bandit -11 Sireace -2) The thired bandit charged Sireace, and she managed to knock him out cold with the flat of her blade, that was exsuasting. She swung around, everone was separated. Her sword was blood covered was beging to become heavy. She couldn't take much more of this..well, actully to be truefull she couldn't take anymore. She could see more bandits closing in. Suddenly one of the Wyvners Riders lost control of his mout, and the dragon crashed out of control. Sireace took the chance and moved quickly back and twoard the cave. "Aleth!" SHe called, coming up twoard her, panting. "Where are the others?"

[Holy snap, wait up ._.]
Because Kaim's roleplayer kicks ass, he is able to insert Kaim actions into the past and do things like that.
As Rayl asked for a heal Kaim nodded. It was the least he could do since the horseman saved him. Holding his staff up, using the magic within him, the staff would glow a bright blue, and follow through to Rayl which would fill him up with energy. (+5 -1 Rayl= Full Health)
Before Darius furthered his 'skip to the dungeon' Kaim chased after a bit to get him in range of a Mend. "Here." He'd call, blessing the wounds upon Darius to aid him. (+5 exp - 1 Darius = Full Health)
The strom comming soon, kaim needed to heal people and fast!
"Sireace!" He called running to her as Rayl gave the order to retreat. Standing near her, he'd call upon his divine magic once more to heal the wounded female. Cuts becomming skin again, she'd probably feel much more better. (+5 EXP - 1 Sireace = Full Health)
Being near Aleth as well, he'd top her up with some of his rejuvinating magic. (+5 EXP - 1)
"Rayne this way!" He called her over. "We're heading to Etruria, we're bound to find another resting place." He robes wavered as the Storm begun. Rain was about to get them soon. "This way! Heel." He said to Rayl's horse as it came to them. He grabbed the harness and tugged it for it to settle. "A bit help": He asked as he struggled with the horse.
"We'll make it!"

Sireace scrambled after Kaim, she quicly caught up with Rayl's spooked horse and moutned him. She quickly helped Kaim onto the horse. "Where are the others?" SHe shouted over the noise, she knew Darius and Rayl were gone, but where were all the others? "Thanks by the way!" She said, sheathing her sword temporarly so that it wouldn't get in the way. (Are we moving to Eturia?)

Rayne turned her attention from the bandits to Kaim, seeing him and the rest of the party moving that way. She turned to go to them but the bandits had taken this oppurtunity to surround her. She frowned, gripped her weapon and charged the bandit that stood between her and her goal. She ran right through the unfortunate bandit, pausing only to shake him off her lance. When she finally arrived where Kaim and Sireace were she looked around. She hadn't really gotten to know most of the party members but one name in particular was missing.
"Where is Rayl?" She asked, her heart sinking.
She grabbed onto Rayl's horse, helping Kaim keep him steady. Her armor was heavy enough to keep her planted on the ground while she settled the horse.
