The Marines eyes widen in shock. He barely had time to whimper “Mercy” before Ari’s blow slammed home. His body slumped down on her fist. Hanging limply from her hand.
The other Marine gasps as his comrade is attacked. He grabs the dagger on his belt, in the same motion as pulling it out, he takes a furious swipe at Dolphus. He then took off at a full sprint, heart pounding furiously, hoping he’d managed to at least cripple one of his pursuers.
The Stone Dragon lifted it’s head at the commotion, faintly interested in the fight. The rock like scales that made up it’s armour ground against the detris that had gathered between them in it’s long nap.
