Shadrak poinged and examined Maverick's shoe... because it had caught his attention. Then when the pigmi pointed at the bush, he ran and attacked the bush.
"Minegimmegimmemine! Thebushshallfalltothemightyfootofmydoom!" then he tried eating it.
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
They trecked for most of the morning before stopping by a small river for lunch. Maverick had tied his belt knife to a stick and was using it to spear fish. The pigmi was sitting on a rock watching him. He wasn't bound or gagged or anything. He wasn't going anywhere either. Apparently the pigmi's in his village were all extremly honorable and always kept there word.
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Shadrak crouched by the riverbank, nearly falling in, poking the water.
"Arewethereyet? canwestopyet? myfeethurt! arewethereyet?" he asked Maverick impatiently.
ooc: is the writing without spaces starting to hurt j00r eyes yet? XD
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
ooc: Actually.... yes.
bic: Maverick, poised in the cold water with the spear held above his head, didn't even look up.
"Shaddy, concentrate on your words."
He slammed the spear into the water and gave a shout of triumph as he pulled his spear out of the water. A fat fish wiggled vainly for life on the end.
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Shadrak watched with wide eyes. "Wooooooooooooooo!" he stopped, thought, then decided that was all he really needed to say.
He hopped up and started a fire.
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Maverick waded out of the water, took the fish off his make-shift spear and quickly started skinning it. Within a half-hour, the thing had been fillayed and was roasting on the end of his stick over the fire. Maverick's knife - now clean - was back in its sheath on his belt.
"So how long until the poison kills him?"
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Shadrak looked up from playing with the fire, eyes wide as dinner plates and meeped. "I. DON'T. WANNA. DIIIIIIE!" he whimpered.
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
The pigmi shrugged. "Depends. Locoberry juice have different effect on different people. Some it kill right 'way. Some it take longer to kill. Some it just make loopy. Some it make loopy, then kill right 'way. And some it make loopy and take much time to kill. And some-"
"Okay! we get the picture. So how long do you think he'll be able to last?"
He shrugged again. "Don't know. Depend how strong he is. I think... it make him loopy, then maybe kill."
"Yes, but how long until that happens?"
"Longest was two day. Screamd and wouldn't shut up until someone bashed skull in. And after that the body sat up and was talking and telling High Boota aaaaaaaall about famous chicken recipe-"
"How much longer will it take to get to your village?"
"Sun."
"What?"
"One sun."
"Say what?"
The pigmi looked at him as if he were a moron, then looked to the sky and sounded as if hewere praying to the Gods for patiance with stupid tall giant peoples - which sounded strangely familiar to Maverick 0 but that was besides the point. The little man held up one hand.
"Sun up," he moved it in an arc through the air, "to sun down," the held up one finger. "One sun."
"Oh! One day; okay." He faced Shadrak. "You hear that Shadrak? Hang on for one more day and you'll be fine. Oh! Hey, does the fact that he's a dragon effect that time limit at all?"
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Shadrak looked up perfectly sane. "We'd better go fast then, shouldn't we?" Then grinned wickedly, snapped his fingers and frowned. They were in a clearing far different from the one they'd just left.
Then Shadrak giggled hysterically and pointed at a bush, which was presumably amusing him with its antics, though any sane person could tell the bush wasn't moving.
ooc: Shaddy's just the monkeywrench in the works, in't he? XD
I think he got that one right, and they're about half a day closer... 0.o
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
By now, Maverick was used to Shadrak's antics. The pigmi however, was not so calm. He was, in fact, clinging to Maverick's pant leg for dear life.
"Shadrak," Maverick asked in a calm, almost bored, voice, "Where, when, and on what dimension are we?"
Shadrak grinned, "Two up and fifty across!" That was about when it was obvious they were in fact two feet off the ground, and upon realizing that Shadrak giggled, muttered an oops, and the whole party fell two metres to the ground.
Shadrak laughed, got up and poked the pigmi clinging to Maverick's leg. "Wooooo!" He grinned.
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Maverick grimaced as pain shot through his arse.
"What?" he growled. "Get it off m- I mean, get off!" He groaned as he stood up. He shook his leg but he man was firmly attached to it.
ooc: Hey, did Shaddy transport the fire and fish too?
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Maverick shook his leg, but the little man stayed there as if glued. He picked a stick out of the fire and pressed the smoldering end to the little man's backside. It was like blowing a foghorn in a sleeping man's ear. The pigmi jumped off, shaking vilently and took off into the forest.
"Bloody Hell! Catch him!"
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Shadrak meeped and chucked the stick he'd been playing with. It whipped the air and stuck the pigmi to a tree by his shirt. Shadrak looked down at his hands, then his handiwork. "Sweet!" he muttered and went looking for a few more sticks.
Re: The Killing gAme cont. AGAIN
Shadrak stopped, crossed his eyes and repeated what he'd said "You. keep. an. eye. on. 'im.((just repeating what was said at him here)) .....WHYYYYYyyyyy?" then he shrugged and pounced a passing piece of grass.
