Sanguine My Sister - [Private - KingKivuli and Shadowfax]

[KingKivuli]

Rahks kept up the charge with Aela and smirked under his cowl her comment. He pulled up his swords and smashed through the enemy lines, the rest of the thieves and companions following behind. Both his blades hacked and slashed through the legion twelve....thirteen... Did you say you were on eight my my falling behind He quickly took down one more, and looked over to a nearby rock where Silver was standing strong. The legion commander snarled at the very sight of her and signaled his own archers to aim and focus all fire down on her

[Shadowfax]

Aela smirked back and then drew a pair of daggers. She span round, slicing two of the enemy in the neck as she went. They both fell dead in seconds, then more men decided to advance on the pair.

"I was.. Being polite... And.. Letting you.. Get a head-start" She said between killing men as more and more began to appear.

**

Silver looked down and to her horror saw many a bow aimed at her and here she was.. Standing vulnerably in the open. Swearing under her breath, she leapt off the rock just in time, for arrows hit the cobble with a clatter. The she-wolf uneasily fell to the floor in her nord form. It would only be a matter of moments before the archers were on her.

"Damn it.." Silver growled, drawing her sword as the men began to appear before her.

"I'll send you all to Oblivion ten times over!" She snarled.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks was about to respond when a surge of men came at them. These ons better armoured built and showed no fear. The elite forces do doubt, all the troops up until now were just cannon fodder, to weaken the alliance and it had worked well. Rahks was hard pressed to keep dodging attacks, and finding a weak spot in the armour was proving a challenged. Silver's luck was running low, a group of 12 men bared down on her all at once knocking her to the ground once more. They were about to give the final blow when an arrow whistled through the air killing one of them. It was the thieves, they had finally returned from Riverwood Sorry we are late, hope we didnt miss the party With that they ran to join Rahks and Aela

[Shadowfax]

Silver saw her life flash before her eyes just then. As the sword began to come down towards her she felt herself becoming afraid. Astrid... We might be together sooner than I though... But the end never came. Infact, the man who was about to end it fell dead right infront of Silver. She looked up to see one of Rahks men standing there grinning.

"Hey, the latecomers are always the best ones in these sort of situations" Silver said as they departed.

She took up her own sword and began to charge after the men and to join Aela and Rahks on the fields. But as she went, men blocked her path and she smirked.

"You come to your deaths... SO READILY!" She yelled, starting to dance with steel on steel.

Aela turned her head to see more of their men coming towards them.

"You have more allies!" She said joyfully.

But she had let her guard down for that second to long. An arrow whistled past her and grazed her shoulder. It didn't embed itself in her flesh, but it tore at her skin painfully as it passed, leaving a deep gash. She stumbled back a few steps swearing.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks looked on as Aela got hit. He ran over to her and pulled her back up steady No rest for the wicked my love, unless you just want to watch me, beat your score He launched back into combat, the legion finally whittling down but at cost. The thieves had be crippled, and the walls of Whiterun had taken heavy damage, and several buildings inside were ablaze. The last of the legions platoon feel leaving only the commander and his guard. Rahks turned to face him. Gaius had his own bow draw and fired, the first shot went straight through Vilkas' armour. He then took aim at Silver. Rahks darted over and pushed Silver aside just in time, yet took the arrow straight to his chest and collapsed. The commander smirked and fired once more this time hitting Silver's other shoulder Ha see how the mighty fall!! You vile skeevers are no match for the great Sun legion. I have crippled your so called leaders in but two shots and they will soon perish!

[Shadowfax]

Aela winced as Rahks pulled her up. She smiled at him thankfully before he ran off and joined the battle once more. With her shoulder like it was, Aela stayed on the outskirts of the field, putting her best skill to use. Archery.

Silver turned her head to see more arrows raining down on them. In a split second her world began to crumble as Vilkas got hit by an arrow. Forgetting their spat, she ran towards the fallen Nord, only to freeze when she saw an arrow aiming at herself. Then someone pushed her full in the chest and Silver felt herself stumbling backwards. When she looked up, her heart sank as she saw the person who had pushed her out the way and taken the arrow was Rahks.

"NOOOOOOO! YOU SON OF A!" Silver yelled, but a searing pain silenced her as an arrow embedded itself in her own shoulder.

She fell back into the mud and let the mans words go right through her. Was it over? Had they failed? Were they both going to die here at his mercy. Silver looked over at Rahks, tears starting to form in her eyes. The man started to walk forward now, but then something embedded itself in his own shoulder. An orcish dagger.

"Not if you perish first!" Farkus yelled, drawing his sword ready for a fight.

[KingKivuli]

The commander pulled the dagger out and threw it to the ground, holding is wound as one of his men ran over to tend to it You think you have a change you dog? Look around you. Your leaders are on the floor, your forces are ruined and your precious town is starting to blaze. Meanwhile my best men are still ready to go so say your prayer to whatever wretched gods your pray to

Rahks lay in the dirt struggling to even move and trying to keep breathing. He just managed to pull his mask off and gasped for air. Brynjolf and Karliah moved closer to him to protect from any further shots. Rahks eyes fell on Silver, as he heard the commanders words once more Thank you... Silver... You have been.. an amazing friend. Tell Astrid.. I said goodbye He could no longer talk, not only had the arrow shot right through him, it was poisoned. He coughed up some blood and body paralized

[Shadowfax]

Farus punched the commander and ran to SilverEye. He yanked the arrow from her shoulder and bandaged it up as much as possible. When she slowly say up, she placed both hands on his cheeks, dampening them with her own blood and countless others she had killed.

"You found.. Me..." She wispered.

"I promised you when I married you didn't I.. I'd always be here for you" Farkus said, embracing her into a tight hug, but avoiding her shoulder as best he could.

"Farkus! Vilkas... He.. Got shot.. You should go and tend to his wounds" She told him. "I'll get Rahks"

Farkus nodded, placed a hand on her shoulder and ran to find his brother.

Silver limped over to Rahks, her shoulder soaked with blood, but she ignored the pain as she made her way over to her friend who was slowly dying. His eyes then locked with hers and she grit her teeth at his words.

"N.. No.. No.. NO! YOUR NOT GOING TO DIE!!! I FORBID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Silver yelled, falling down next to him in the mud.

"Help him.. There must be something you can do!!!" She pretty much yelled in Karliahs face.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks gritted his teeth and withered in pain as the poison work its way around. Karliah quickly stepped back and inspected him over Silver...I am sorry...there is nothing I can do. This poison is similar to Rahks own. I know of the cure but... all the supplies are back at home and some are extremely rare Gaius laughed loud as his guard formed up and they began to march over Finally over it seems, I will let you whelps grieve your dead then I shall send you to join them, since you are all so big on being honourable or perhaps you will surrender. Either way you have five minutes to make your choice Brynjolf stepped in the way of him More than you have, and we will not surrender, all of us would rather perish than follow the legion

[Shadowfax]

"DAMN IT! DAMN IT ALL!" Silver yelled as Karliah announced this.

The young nord collapsed to her knees and began to wail, feeling utterly useless. The rain began to fall and the wound on her shoulder throbbed painfully. She had lost her sister... Her family... And now Rahks. She had failed them all. And the Sun Legion was about to take Whiterun where her daughter was. Innocent little Astrid. That's when the fire within her began to burn brightly and revenge began to take over her. These people... were so intent on taking everything from her. Her family and friends, all because of the beast blood within her.

SilverEyes eyes flashed a dangerous look as she got to her feet and snapped her head round to look at the Commander and his men. She then began to laugh manically as she drew her sword.

"WhiteRun is ours.... We're taking it back!" She yelled, charging at them all, not caring that the numbers were against her.

"JUST TRY! JUST TRY AND KILL ME! I'LL SEND YOU ALL DOWN TO OBLIVION! THE SUN LEGION WILL FALL AND WE. WILL. HAVE. OUR. FREEDOM!!!" She yelled as she killed time and time and again.

Aela had managed to stagger over to where Rahks lay. She had heard about the poison slowly eating away at his body and gently she took a hold of his hand in her own when she knelt down next to him. She looked up at Karliah sadly.

"There... Is... One thing that could save him.. But... I do not know if he would like it" She said weakly.
