Author: Auschmal Date Sat Aug 21 12:16:48 1999 Subject Farewell 'GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF CAPTAIN!' About 5 people were holding down a rampaging thanoi, flailing around the dagger tha cured him yet led him more into that madness. Medea was standing a few steps back, shouting and crying, trying to stop her captain from losing his grip of reality. Sansagroth resisted every force that rushed him, every weapon that cut him, and every cuss that offended him. In a blind rage, he threw each and every person that jumped on his back. It was hopeless, the beast cannot be controlled any longer. He slowly approached Medea, blood dripping from his jaw, carrying a grin that was seen on many who have held the Dagger of Vengeance. He slowly approached the weeping girl, yet she made no effort to move out of the way, it's not in her power to stop a monstrosity like this anymore... 'Admiral!' Kybo calls out to the road as he saw Auschmal from a distance. 'Come quick Admiral! we need you r help! Sansagroth... he...' just at the name of Sansagroth, the minotaur snarled and unsheathed his rusty cutlass, ready to silence the creature who once was his good friend. Tears dropped from his angry eyes, yet his undying desire to destroy what has become of Sansagroth, maybe even Sansagroth himself. He stepped up the dock and jumped from there to the Orlouge. Too late... Medea lay before the walrus, coughing what's left of her proud life as a sailor of the Orlouge. Selec lay in a heap of blood and guts to his side and Victor lay slumped against the masts, headless. 'Cap'n... why did it have to end this way?' Auschmal whispers to himself as he brandished the gaffhook of the original captain of the Orlouge. 'SANSAGROTH! If it has to end, then let the legacy of our work end here, as our final battle!' he shouts, the gaffhook raised up in the air. It had to come to this, he thought to himself. Each and every one of the former crew has already met with their patron. The dream was no longer a reality. The Unity was falling apart. 'SANSAGROTH! DRAW YOUR WEAPON!' And in a magnificent crack of lightning, the two warriors rushed into each other... [Hit Return to continue] 'I'm sorry Kiarra...' A wizened minotaur said, putting his arms around the weeping widow's shoulder. She looked up at him and smiled. 'Thank you father...' She said as she hugged the old man. 'Don't worry my child... you will join him under Sargas's... grace' he said as he stuck a dagger into the woman's back. He knelt down to the ground and lay her body softly. 'Auschmal... My son, I wish i could have looked back... but I can't... My duty is with Mithas. May Sargas watch over your souls...' Kybo, Rorin and Twigpuckle circled the bed of the girl who was slowly losing her life. Their hands, each clasping each other's. Twigpuckle and Rorin wept bitterly as Kybo maintained a strong grip on the girl's hand. 'Kyb... Kybo sir... It hurts... don't squeeze my hand that hard' She said as her pale face lightened with a soft smile. 'I know... I haven't worked with all of you long, but I loved every minute of it, I wish it could have been longer, but It was my duty to go down with my captain...' She coughed. 'Shh, don't talk like that, girl. Be strong!' Kybo said, a tear finally running down his stern face. 'It's inevitable... we all have to go sometimes, sir...' This comment made Twigpuckle cry even more. '2 of my precious friends. about gone... I wish I could have done something...' Twigpuckle sobbed. Rorin put his hand on the kender's shoulder. 'Don't worry, I'm sure the gods will take care of them as much as they've taken care of us...' Medea smiled at Rorin for one last time, and slowly, her breath stuttered... then finally stop. -MAULER'S LAST STORY-
