Ivy took an arrow from her back immediently after Hex went to help Sera and nocked it. Humm. She quickly looked around. She needed to find something to shoot besides a dead head that could help them. There was the old man..and the skull! Ivy took quick aim and let an arrow go, praying that it would hit the skull and shatter it. Just for good measure, she took another arrow, nocked it and after aiming for the crazy man, released the arrow.
The whirlwind dropped as Hex went to aide Sera, but the air he summoned lacked the punch it once had and his blades were dull and weak...
The 3 zombies still moving loomed in around Hex and Ivy as the barrier keeping them at bay vanished...
Ivy gets off her shots and the first strikes the skull, sending it skittering across the floor and causing it to lose a few teeth in the process. The second shot goes wide as a cold dead hand clutches her hair and begins to pull...
The blood binding Sera weakens then turns to liquid as the man screams and goes chasing off after the skull on the floor...
Another Zombie grabs Hex's robes and begins to pull...
The man scoops up the skull and tries to grab the loose teeth as well as his screams raise in volume and dispair...::
"YOU SHOT MY WIFE!!!"
::The stones forming the roof above them begin to shift, dropping dirt on their heads... A few pop free as hands reach out of the dirt from above as more of his children try to free themselves from the earth to obey their father...::
Ivy yelled as her hair was pulled. "Get off" She snapped, grabbing her own hair and yanking. She nocked an arrow and spun, letting the arrow go. "Guys, we gotta go." She hated admitting that, but she knew there was no way to beat all of them. She had to wait for Sera though, she wouldnt leave her friend here. She scooped up one of her arrows that was on the ground, nocked it, aimed for another dead head near Hex and Sera and let it fly

Serafyna wobbled and sunk to her knees, eyes returning to the green they usually were. Her hands barely supported her upper body off the floor, a dull glaze in her expression, and the blood that once made up the large claw pooled around her. Her hand itched and stung. Everything looked a little blurry, and exhaustion dulled her senses, she momentarily forgot where she was. "Glasses..." she mumbled, starting to rise but toppled sideways, in the old mans direction, sinking back to her knees. She looked about bleary eyed and deeply confused and out of it.

"You got it Ivy!!!" Hex cheered Ivy on as she shattered the skull. Hex was exhausted... That whirlwind and air blasts basically ruined his magic reserves. However, Ivy did the good thing and shot down the skull... but something was different... The stones... they were moving.. The place was about to collapse!
However, when Hex started to move, he realized that something was holding him back. Another hand from the zombies that he was fighting got a hold of his robes. However, he saw the arrow Ivy fired, and hoped that it hit so Hex could brush him off and catch up with Ivy.
Ivy grabbed an arrow from the dead zombie, quickly nocked it and shot towards the head of the oncoming zombie. Not bothering to look to see if it hit, Ivy ran over to Hex and Sera, quickly using her knife to try and break the blood ties around Hexs wrist before going to Sera and crouching. "Sera, you need to grab hold and Dont let go" She said, grasping he friend around the upper arm and pulling her up as much as she could. "We need to go. Now." She began pulling Sera along towards Hex

Sera stares at the zombie blankly as it shuffles away. Her hands feel around for her glasses and she comes across a tooth. She stares at the tooth in hand and wobbles, the room spinning. "uhhh" she groans softly. "Why does.. my head... hurt..." she topples onto her side, still holding the tooth and curls up in a ball with a small whine. Then Ivy was their, lifting her. Her hand still stung and blood coated the tooth. "miss...Ivy...what...nnng.." she squeezed her eyes shut with a moan.

Hex was free from the zombie! But now his hands were tied with blood... Good thing his legs were free so he could run. Hex waited for ivy to catch up to him in which she attempted to cut the bloody ropes around him. He felt light headed and dizzy... So much so that he didn't know whether or not the ties were broken or not. However, he tried walking out, turning around towards Sera and Ivy.
"Come on... We gotta go..."
Hex motioned with his head and waited for Ivy and Sera to come, and when they caught up, the three of them would continue on. However, waiting for them felt like years... And Hex didn't feel so well...
::Bloody, scraped, battered and tired, the trio made their escape from the room. The crazed man tries to follow, screaming at the loss of his prize, but the words are lost in the sound of the weaken roof collapsing in as dirst and stone and bodies fill the void...
The path ahead to freedom is clear and the trio have no trouble finding their way back to the cemetary this had all begun in...::
Silent as a shadow on padded feet...
Serafyna [M:30:350:][D3v:http://rpgmenagerie.com/index.cgi?board=cs&action=display&thread=854]Im so sorry!
As they broke out into the surface Serafyna collapsed, all her strength leaving her legs.

Hex stumbled as he walked out of the evil dungeon graveyard thing of total disgustingness. He was extremely light headed, and the fresh air felt nice through his lungs.
"FREEDOM..."
Hex continued to walk until he found a nice flat rock to sit on, which was probably a fallen tombstone, but who cares. The dead are dead, and their bodies were defiled by that crazy man. I am sure that this person wouldn't mind Hex sitting on their only remaining memory... He hoped.
"So... Did we d--"
Hex, all of a sudden threw up all over the ground. Luckily, he missed his clothing and the girls, but it was a mixture of the undead, bloodloss, and magic fatigue that made him feel that way. It still made him feel queasy just thinking about it.
"I don't feel so good..."
Hex breathed heavily as he tried to avoid the nauseating feeling again.
Ivy replaced her bow on her back and grabbed her friend under her arms and started dragging her away from the entrance...just in case. Avoiding the spot hex vomited on, Ivy stopped next to him and sat next to her friend, looking over at Hex. "You going to be ok?" She was a bit out of breath from pulling Sera, and started smiling over what had happened in the...tomb? She figured thats what it was. She looked over at Sera too. "Are you ok? Do you need anything?" She was glad all three of them hadnt died.
::The three were able to rest and collect themselves. It was not long before Sentinels arrived with the Cemetary caretaker in tow to take in the report of what happened and make plans to restore the door to the tomb and the hole in the floor within. Promises were made to check out the lower levels of the sewer to see if they could find the remains of the crazy man they had encountered.::
((Well done, team! 5 acclaim and 50gp to all involved!))
