Kerag laughed.
"Nah I figured you prefer it rough Captain. Hehehe only teasing."
Margrett abruptly stopped his laughter and derailed their plan, threatening to escape what advantage they'd gained over her. The orc growled, feeling sharp pain shoot up his elbows. He threw his arms up and out of the reach of her thumbs and quickly brought them down again, striking both elbows at her collar bone.
Tallia grabbed at her side, feeling the brutal impact of Margrett's attack. She rolled away from the group for a time before she was able to stop herself and recover. Pain lingering within her body, she picked herself up and rushed towards the struggle, intending on landing a hit... or something. But, with Kerag locking Margrett in place, she held her attack for another time.
She took the blow, her arms going numb, slurring a curse as she braced herself against the ground and pushed back hard, her head slamming into Kerag's jaw, trying to knock him over.
Kerag grinned with satisfaction, only to have his head jolt back from Margrett's blow. He saw spots and his sight grew dim, threatening to black out if he wasn't careful. The orc fell back and groaned, one hand covering his chin, growling and cursing. Kerag focused all his attention on the Captain now however, and though he'd fallen onto his back, he would have no problem kicking. He drew one leg back and kicked at her mid-section hard, arms bracing him up from the ground, snarling in pain and determination.
While Kerag was dazed she'd turned around, so the kick got her got and got it hard. She flew back a few feet, landing hard and rolling once onto her stomach. She groaned and got to her feet, wiping her mouth of blood.
Still here, recruits. Have to do better than that.
Amazed as to how Marg manages to roll away from his blade that was placed on her throat and not cut herself, Venom grew angry. Even more when he saw her hit Kerag on his jaw. He walked over to his companions and took a glance at their wounds before looking at his captain with a serious look in his eyes.
Captain, you're taking this to another level. You can't accept defeat? I could have cut your throat back there and had you in a position to have done so, but we're not fighting to the death. Also remember, one of your rules were no face hits. What do you call this?
He points at Kerag's jaw.
His blood began to pump within him as he waited for her response.
While a bit appalled about Margrett's "treatment" of Kerag, she was glad she was apologizing for it... until she noticed something. Running towards Margrett and Venom, she drew her sword, raising it to strike.
"V... Venom...! She... hasn't said 'uncle' yet! It's a trap!"
Nudging herself in-between the Captain and Venom, she shoved Venom back by backstepping into him, swinging her sword in the process to create distance between the Captain and herself. Turning to Venom, she whispered.
Kerag picked up his axe while Margrett was paying attention to Venom and Tallia, unsnapping the lower shaft and sliding out the six-inch knife. The orc came from behind and brought the knife to the Captain's throat, thrusting the shaft of the axe into her backside.
Venom sheathed his blade and stepped next to Tallia's side, placing a hand on her shoulder. They did it, at least they were now done with that part of the test.
Thank you Tallia. You did great... More than I expected actually. Where did you learn such a move?
You too Kerag. Your strength and power were a big part of our success.
Venom was still a little worried about what the next part of the test would be like and if Marg would play by the rules this time.
