Ender saw the skulls gravitate to one another in front of Rick. He quickly reached for gun and was about to take aim at the monster, when a skull rolled past his feet. He looked down and saw a shadow move, and instinctively, he rolled forward. Milliseconds later, a giant pile of bones made a small hole where the boy had been.
Ender untucked himself from the roll and jumped up, twisting at the same time so he could face his opponent. Still in the air, he took three shots at the golem, all three hitting the torso area. Each bullet went straight through the golem, the sheer velocity of each round tearing away a sizeable hole. However, only moments after the third shot, new skulls moved into the holes.
The boy used his free hand to grab the sword off his back. He took a defensive stance, and the golem obliged and came running at him. It took a swing, but Ender shot the incoming arm and instead of being swiped aside, he was scratched by random bone fragments. Ender used the time to counter, slashing his sword sideways through both of the golem's knees. He pointed his gun again, and shot the last two bullets at the golem's shoulder, taking off its other arm.
The boy saw more skulls coming in to join the main body. In a seemingly random move, Ender tossed his sword into the air and jumped backwards. With a flick of the wrist, he popped open his revolver. Old shells sprang out of the cylinder, into which the boy put a new set of bullets. He flicked his wrist again, snapping the gun shut, then took a step to the left. A moment later, he reached up, and his sword's handle fell neatly into his hand. He took a ready stance again, preparing for the golem's next move.

OOC: I did write a huge post before Andurin posted but the wonderous black hole of text and useless information that is the internet decided to eat it. I'll try and get something up tonight, I'm just feeling a little deflated after losing such a long post.

OOC: Ooooh! I know how that is. The conclusion to Winter, one of the most important posts in ORP history, was eaten by a similar error. >_< You've got my sympathies.

When Rick hit the ground he skipped like a stone. The was a loud pop like crack as Ricks shoulder came into contact with an old tree. Searing pain erupted in his shoulder and the mage knew he had dislocated it. With his good arm he pushed himself to his feet and began looking for where his sword landed. The golem that had attacked him was making its way quickly toward the mage, pushing down trees that were placed in its path. Rick found his sword sticking halfway in the ground and pulled it out. He turned to face the creature and barely dodge being hit again.
Rick darted between the golems legs and slashed at its back. The broken skulls fell to the ground but were quickly replaced with more. Rick swore loudly and ran deeper still into the jungle. He realized that the farther he went the closer the trees grew together, making it harder for the golem to catch up. As he continued he began to hear the sound of trees falling in front of him and turned to see another Golem coming at him from the front.

OOC-Ok… sorry to everyone that was in this topic. It is far to dead to continue on so if it’s ok with everyone I’m just going to say what happened.
We defeated the golems and continued on our way. The farther into to the jungle we got the more we were attacked by various creatures. There were a few close calls and then we had one last fight. Ricks sword got broken and it took a massive combined effort from everyone to defeat the last creature. We found Shin-Ra, the last great mage city, and they welcomed us in reluctantly. We stayed there for a few days over that time we noticed that the other mages were slightly arrogant and condescending to anyone who was not a pure blood mage. They were very condescending to Rick. Calling his magic dirty and referring to him as the Tainted One.
On the last night the barrier protecting the city failed and creatures began to flood into the city. The mages blamed us, but we continued to help them fight back the creatures. It was later revealed that the leader of the Mage Army had been one of the Red Mages that attacked Ricks Village when he was young. The Red Mage caused the barrier to fail hoping he could kill Rick in the chaos. There was a last fight between Rick and this Red Mage. There was a point where it looked like Rick might die and either Prime or Ender tried to help him but Zeb totally held them back and said the classic ‘This is something he has to do alone’ line and the Rick totally kicked his ass.
The mages apologized and the Grand Mage, since Rick had proved to be such a great fighter, offered him the newly created possession of ‘Captain of the City Guard’ to help protect the city from the dangerous creatures that lived around it.
If you guys want to we can RP this last little bit. This is Rick saying goodbye to everyone since he is now going to stay in the mage city of Shin-Ra. Just post a good by speech kind of thing to Rick. Oh and the Mages gave everyone some type of enchanted item and I’ll let you decide what you get (just no godly items lol).
