"You think violence is fun?" Linx panted slightly as he clicked the fire thrower's safety into the "off" position. It was a long run and he had been carrying a loaded fire thrower with several spare shells, a physically trying mix. He popped out from behind the merlon he was behind long enough to locate the main source of the arrows in his sights, and pull the trigger.

No, just that standing out on guard isn't... That and actually fighting back...

"Whatever. Go steal a ranged weapon from somebeast," Linx replied as he watched the shell he launched arc a bit and burst against the ground, making a loud bang and instigating a lot of screams, torn flesh and burning fur. "This is all I've got on me."

Me miss on the chance to thow things back at vermin? Since when have you known me to pass that up?
**Acosting one of the now cowering guards, Raiden "borrowed" the bow and quiver before fireing towards the little dots of light in the Vermin lines.**

Linx ducked back behind the crenel so he could start cranking back the fire thrower's cocking knob in safety. "That bow," he remarked casually to Raiden, "Isn't standard issue. They've been scrapped."

While there are your repeaters going around, I guess there are still some who appreciated the traditional feel of a bow... Fishrudder's one, he brought a Greatbow off me not a few days ago...
**Loading the string with eight shafts, Raiden stood up fully amongst the storm of arrows flying up at the battlements before loosing off the shots.**

"...Did you just fire over half a dozen?" Linx finally got it cocked. From there he could load a shell.

Yeah... Eight. Easy if you know how though... It's the spacing and where your paw is mostly... Not that it would make me hit any more ti...
**Abruptly, Raidne staggered backwards and fell onto the ramparts heavilly.**
Teaches me not to stay standing up in the middle of a firefight against arrows...
**Setting the bow down from his left paw, Raiden pulled the shaft out of his right arm.**

"Raiden, stop getting hit," Linx muttered as he jumped out, made another shot and jumped back before he could see where it went. He heard another loud bang and more screams but that was all.

If I can still fire, I'm fine... Besides, it's only a... Hold that thought...
**Holding bow and quiver, Raiden rolled to one side as a few fire arrows landed where he had been lying a moment before.**

"Holding." Back to cranking the fire thrower. When are they gonna die?...

Well, as I was about to say, It's only a flesh wound.
**It was more than that, but Raiden being Raiden, had to put a brave face on such things... that, and he hated the sickbay almost as much as his daughter did...**

"You always say that," Linx replied flatly while inserting a shell. "Then you turn out to be diced."

Last time wasn't my fault... One blade on six? Not good odds... Heh, beat them... Nearly died doing so, but I beat them.

"I didn't say it was your fault." Linx turned from the merlon and was about to fire through the crenel when he realized there was nobody to fire at. He accidentally pulled the trigger and it hit an empty spot anyway.
