[majorarc]

Who: Everyone
When: September 25, Late Evening
Where: The docks
What: The Minions Attacking
Warnings: Possible death, violence and cursing, so PG-13. Remember, if you die, you will resurrected by The Rulers and shackled. If you are injured, you will be immediately shackled and grouped with the others. We will be posting to this log as minions.


While the minions kept stealing items, it didn’t seem like that stopped the denizens from doing what they wanted to. This did not please the Rulers, no, not one bit! So, as the boat took off, the Emperor took the literal wind away from the sails, making the ocean a still as could be. There is a long moment of complete silence; no trees ruffling in the wind, no leaves rolling down the cobblestone streets of the districts, nothing.

At the beach, the minions begin to appear, giggling oddly and looking at the boat with malicious grins. Some of them are carrying weapons, some of them with glowing hands that signify magic. Behind them are Justice and Judgment, looking grim as they signal the attack. The minions begin their attack, either with weapons or magic, aiming directly for the boat and the passengers.

Good luck, denizens.

[minions]

And a fight he would have.

The minions that come for Domon had swords and spears, archers at the ready behind them. But while their fellows attacked directly, aiming to take down their targets as quickly as possible, they taunt, stay just out of Domon's reach for the time being. The closest to him jabbed its sword, just before barking at him. Another howled, and a chorus of almost childish giggling followed the animalistic sound.

"Why you-!"

The taunting actions alone were enough to make him mad, but the barks and howls were enough to make him absolutely furious.

"I am not a dog!"

He tries to attack the minions despite not being able to get close enough to them. This was just wasting energy, but he was too angry to care.

[minions]

Domon's reaction only served to egg them on, sending them into a fit of laughter before a handful of them began howling together, dancing further out of his reach as they did so. A few others willingly entered his space, jabbing and slashing at him with spear and sword, prepared for the risk they were taking by directly attacking the angered denizen.

He quickly spun to attack the minions that were foolish enough to get close. Despite his rage the movement showed that he truly was a formidable fighter, and a normal person would be hard pressed to dodge his blade. But the minions were anything but normal, weren't they?

The ones that were barking at him were seemingly ignored for the moment. But he was still listening, and although he didn't show it he was getting angrier with every sound.

[minions]

Far from normal as they were, not all of the minions could move away fast enough. The blade struck fast and sure, bringing down a pair and injuring another before they skulked back to join the crowd. Those among the crowd whined and growled, as if an actual pack concerned for packmates.

But it didn't last long.

As they taunted and moved closer to Domon, the pair left on the ground shifted, twitched, slowly rose back up while Judgment let out a high laugh beyond them. Taking up their weapons again, they returned the denizen's attack, slashing with their swords from low on the ground as they got their feet back under them.

Their whines now made him feel guilty as well as angry. The Werewolf didn't have much influence over him yet, but that night he had been transformed into an animal was burned into his memory. He knew they were just trying to provoke him, but he still couldn't shake the feeling.

It was just enough to distract him, so that he hesitated when the fallen minions began to twist and move again. For a moment he wondered if it was DG Cells, if that horrible thing had somehow come back again. But no, it was the magic of this place. He couldn't afford to be scared or guilty!

But he regained his focus too late. He managed to block the attack, but in doing so his katana was knocked out of his hand. He tried to recover, but if the minions moved fast enough they would have a clean shot.
