Leaping from building to building, Chip finally caught up to the action just in time to see Meshtak do his trick and to over hear him talking to the wizard. > Meanwhile, Blade is mad. He looks up and attacks the first thing he >sees...which happens to be Chip. "Kill Meshtak!" he snarls, lumbering at Chip >and looking menacing. > Meanwhile, the sound of galloping horses is heard...a small contingent >of the guard, sent to check things out. The buzzing sound from Chip increased to almost the intensity of a swarm of Locusts. With a cry of SSchi'eh Chip leapt in to the attack, His gythka almost blindingly bright. Chip waits for blade to charge and the jumps over, behind him then stikes hard with both gythka doing, almost nothing except leave some pitiful looking dents. Seeing how that's almost useless, he decides to try to lure him over to the edge of the dock... ADMIN since i'm going to be awy from the computer for ahwile, feel free to use chip as much as you want to, as long as you don't kill him and you keep him in character (If someone mentions who sent blade, Chip is going to me a bit perturbed{look at his deity) and is most likey going to want to destroy her for using the same title) ***************************************************************************** If it doesn't bite you *Chip'Chirip'cherebaklamapacth eat it * Champion of the Great Queen Mother If it does bite you, kill it * SSchi'eh then eat it * AKA Don Shaffer Thri-kreen saying * dshaffer@andromeda.rutgers.edu rough translation *
