Celest tried to take her wand out of her pocket while Tehr wasnt looking, as Ryleigh had instructed she did ask questions. It wasnt easy getting her wand as her hands were chained, but somehow she managed to do it. As she passed it to Ryleigh she gave her a "I hope your not going to do anythign that will get you killed" look....

Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
Unfortunately Aldon's spell only managed to heal a small bit, not doing anything much. James was still in a lot of pain. He looked over at Aldon. "You need to get down. If he sees your not in a lot of pain, he'll only make it worse for you. Go now, you can't do anything for the group if your as hurt as the rest of us." and with that He rested his head back, closing his eyes in pain.

Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
Ryleigh fumbled slightly with the wand handed to her.
"Thank you" She said quickly turning her blue eyes towards the crowd and the nearing arrows. She sprinted foward, getting as close as she could to the group before being restrained by the shackles. As she neared she closed her eyes and swallowed hard. "Please Merlin."
"Refectious!" She bellowed, aiming Celestina's wand to the center of the huddled scared students.
A massive purple light shot out of the wand, smacking the nearest person and spreading through his/her body, shooting out of him/her and to the rest purple light dancing in their skin.
The beam shot through the middle then tore into the sky forming a foutain of light, sparklets falling on the defenseless students, engulfing them all in a large purple orb which hopefully would protect them from the oncoming Drow Arrows.
Ryleigh dropped to her knees, exhausted, eyes half open. That spell - a mass Reflecto - she learned while in Auror training, it took a lot out of her.
"Please Merlin." She repeated, a breathless prayer.

Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
Celest's mouth hung open, she crossed her fingers. "Ryleigh!" she quietly cried "Brilliant!" she had used a strong sheilding charm, and Celest hoped, it had worked. Celest ran to Ryleigh ,and she grabbed her wand back and stuffed it back in her pocket. But then getting an idea she grabbed her wand back out.
In the confusion of what Ryleigh had just done, and knowing that once everything cleared up, Ryleigh would be in for it, Celest held her wand above the shackles. "Please work!" she said and with a swish of her wand she cried "Alohomara!" and the shackles unlocked.
"Come on!!! Run!"she said taking off Ryleighs and her shackles, and grabbing Ryleigh by the arm. "Oh..man we have to hide you!! Your in big trouble if they catch you, and if Tehr gets to you first..."she shuddered not wanting to think about it.
Although many elves where still trying to sort things out about the sheilding charm, but many were still alert and watching the other slaves who were not covered by Ryleighs sheild. One stopped right in front of them. But Celest not thinking about herself, and just wanting to get Ryleigh out of there pointed her wand at the elve blocking their way to a safe place, away from Tehr. A determined look in her eyes she cried "Bugger Off!" and with a glare on her face she muettered "Petrificus Totalus!" and she hoped it would work........

Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
((sorry Celestina, but ::sighs:: Ryleigh does not run ::shudders as she knows she is gonna get herself killed:: ))
Ryleigh blinked as her shackles were unlocked, immediately being pulled by Celestina.
"No!" She cried. "I will not Run." She added tiredly, the spells after effects still weighing heavily on her. She watched Celestina cast a spell on another Elf shaking her head slightly "She's done." She muttered before turning on her heel and bolting back to where she previously stood.
Ryleigh crouched low on the ground picking her shakles back up and placing them back, unlocked, around her wrists, her blue tired eyes darting around praying no one saw her doing this. She stood slowly, and cowered into a corner as the mild riot continued, acting as if she'd done nothing at all.
((Contradicting no? Well, there is a reason, think ::nods and wonders if she's confused anyone yet:: ))

Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
Tehr had released the boy, not caring at his words, he wasn't here to be loved. He stood to watch the bolts spread their pain, 'break the group, break the one' he hissed.
The hound, pushed aside by Aldon had turned, bristling hackles raising on its back, screams filling it sensitive ears. A low growl as it stepped slowly closer, eyes locked on Aldons. It leapt, sudden bunching of muscles and springing, paws oozing heat, slamming into his shoulders. Toppling the child to the ground, slamming it into the ground, removing paws from blistered flesh, massive maw opening wide again, clamping around the boys throat, skin beginning to redden with burns from its spit it held him firmly, without breaking the skin. Trained from birth to handle slaves, it would not kill without an order or unless it was interferred with by anyone other than its master, mouth like this it would take only an instant to sink too deeply for him to ever recover.
Tehr's shoulders slipped down slightly, a magical barrier halting fifty bolts, they dropped to the ground and he growled as the terror faded from their faces. Screams from those already injured still tearing at the air, clogging the ears, drow weapons were drawn as slaves pulled wands out, courage to resist their masters. He shook his head, this would be a massacre, they needed these slaves. 60 or so wands held in trembling hands, Three hundred weapons bared hungrily, nineteen voices beginning to mutter spells he looked around, a pause as a standoff ensued. The Drow would wait for his order.
Tehr turned, looking for the culprit here, only to see Ryleigh huddling, still chained. Celest with her wand out having attacked a guard, she was the one that had done this, already ten warriors had closed, one kicking her knees out from under her, sending her crashing forward, another smashing a fist into her temple, boots coming up under her as she fell, the kicks twisting her in the air, sending her up again to land on her back heavily, her wand was taken, a boot planted on her throat, the threat clear. 'move and die'.
All of this taking only a moment his yellow eyes turned back to the building riot, the first spells flew, 'his' mages barriers shooting up through the air, large sheets of purple shimmering light that absorbed their patheticlly weak attacks, it would take a lot more than their first few spells to break those shields. His head lifted, yellow eyes gleaming again.
With slow steps he strolled between the sides, turning sharply, to face the kids as the second couple of spells were sent, a spell aimed at him, stricking enchanted armour, simply died half an inch out from him. His calm presence before them, weapons still sheathed, silence dawning again.
His hand lifted lazily in the air, a finger pointing behind them all, a cruel smile on his face.
"Drop your wands." he ordered coldly. Heads turned in time to see 16 reptilian eyes glaring down, massive bodied, scaled, 8 heads attached to eight long necks coiled back before lashing down. A screaming roar blasting over the huddled crowd, heads stopping bare inches from the back line of slaves, its animal roar of hunger melting aggression instantly, poison saliva lashing from its forked tongues, slowly the heads pulled back, writhing through the air, looking for the first movement.
Tehr raised an eyebrow high, waiting for their response while his troops spread out to totally surround the rabble. His masters Hydra sealing off the back with its presence.
Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
Celest's eyes had been open in shock when Ryleigh had run back, after she had cast her spell on the Guard. Celest's wand was still clutched in her hand as she was kicked to the ground. It was very painful, lying their and being kicked..hard, and when the boot came down on her throat....she just wanted to scream, but didnt dare. She did however gasp, terrified when the eight, giant, wierd reptiles things came out. "Oh-we didnt learn about this in Care Of Magical Creatures" she said looking stunned.
She blinked slowly, still in pain, to make sure she was really seeing this, the heavy boot still pushing hard on her neck, and practically suffocating her. She wanted to black out, just faint....maybe die! After all death would be better than this...this..hell! She took in a deep breath, and gaped at the giant reptiles......

Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
((OOC Note: That thing is one thing, its an eight headed Hydra, some variety they have brought in with them. It doesn't regenerate heads and create more like most Hydra can / do. 8 is what its got, but don't worry, it does have some nasty abilities to make up for its lack of growing 2 heads for every 1 you cut off.
To picture it, its a big lizard thing, maybe more like a dragon without wings, smaller (lots) and 8 necks and heads))

Re: Aldons Arrogance -Enter Tehr
Ryleigh bolted out of her corner as Celestina got pinned down, that was _not_ her intentions at all. She dropped the shackles and slid along the floor, her foot extending to sweep the elf's leg that was digging into Celestina's throat.
She threw her body over the girl, her face set in an angry glare as she looked up at the guards.
"She did not do that..." She breathed, slowly gathering more energy to speak. But all her thoughts went blank as she saw an eight headed reptile emerge. Ryleigh's mouth went slack and her eyes widened, her heart stoppig for an instant as she looked upon the large massive, slimly, deadly looking creature.
"A...a hydra." She breathed slowly her body slumping slightly on top of Celestina's.

**Gasp Gasp**
(OOC sorry **slaps self** I need to pay better attention but u cant blame me, its not my fault Im a blonde lolz)
Celest looked at Ryleigh, why was she admitting to it? now she was going to get beaten, thought Celest, and as she looked up at the hydra thingy again she thought about what that thing would do if it was commanded to. Celest closed her eyes slightly, she didnt want to look at the hydra it made her sick to her stomach.....

Tehr held his hand up to the warriors over Celest and Ryleigh, the drawn sword being put away immediately. "one thing at a time" he muttered, cold inside, not knowing what he was thinking anymore.
Watching the riots will die, withering under the baleful glare of the Hydra. They sensed the utter hopelessnes of their situation and wands began dropping.
"Retrieve your hound" the dog was pulled away slowly from Aldon, releasing him from its grip, releasing him from deaths door.
"Beat them, all of them, Five lashes to the last one." he ordered, whips were pulled out, weapons sheathed. "Take that one, make sure he doesn't die and double his lashing." He pointed at James, they ranked slave that had betrayed them, "Higher you rise, harder you fall slave." he spat
Turning sharply, his house business taken care of he strode back over to Celest and Ryleigh, standing above the pair, legs apart and arms loose at sides, thinking.
"What did you say and what did you do?" he asked, voice cold and words slow.

Oh dear.
Ryleigh's stared open mouthed and wide eyed at the Hydra a bit longer before she even noticed Tehr presence. When she did, her slight shock dropped into anger, and her face shifted, eyes narrowing, her teeth gritting slightly.
"I told them to stop, because she didn't cast that sheild." She admitted without hesistation. Her eyes now darting between the guards, her cold glare not faltering.

Re: Oh dear.
Tehr stared down at his two trophies, one ontop of the other. Her words heard loudly in his ears, heard clearly.
This one defying the Drow, defying their will, defending the others, complicating the issue for him to deal with. Her fear shifting to anger again, a warriors booted foot pulling back, swinging to kick, a flash of silvery metal, Tehr moving faster than the eye could really follow.
Long, curved blade, wickedly serrated found itself resting on the throat of the warrior, without looking away from his slaves he held the blade there. The warriors foot pulled back, coming back to the ground.
"Do not ever presume to discipline my slaves for me." his voice the same as the warriors stepped back.
"And you did cast it? and then admit to it freely, why claim responsibilty when it was to be handed to another?"
((ooc: the other stuff continues at its own pace, continue posting normally and consider Tehr and these two out of this thread, Drow will follow their orders if you feel like posting your beating.))

Re: Oh dear.
Ryleigh looked back to Tehr, her glare softening the rebellious spark in her eyes still there.
"Because I did it, there is no other reason is there?" Ryleigh shot at him, her confindence being boosted a bit as he was obviously not going to beat her for now.

Re: Oh dear.
Tehr dropped his sword, sliding his arm up and around, resheathing that cruel blade with a single motion, eyes never leaving his trophies, spotting the hazed look to Celests eye that showed her head injury had dragged her into the silence of a concussion.
Screams still echoing about the room, the Hydra's roar screeching out again as someone attempted to run, and stopped short as a massive head appeared inches from the slaves.
"Honour, Pride, respect from your peers?" he suggested in that same voice
"Intelligence would suggest not having done anything, knowing you would be spared the torment, the pain and anguish that would come to you for being the one to be pinned for defiance of this level."
He stopped, hard yellow eyes peering into her rebellious blue glare, something though, something lay in that hard peering of his, a slight and subtle shifting only she would (if looking) be able to pick up on, even then, undefinable in its nature.

Re: Oh dear.
Ryleigh shook her head, her arms slowly pulling Celest closer to her, blue eyes even through her hard surveying glare did not really notice that slight shift in Tehr's sickening yellow ones.
"I told you before I could care less about honor in this place...I did it because I do not let my problems rest on others shoulders. I take my responsibilty, and mine only." She spat, an eyebrow raising, her red, smudged and dirty face forming an odd grin as her eyes roamed the blade master that stood in front of her.
"Something everyone should learn to do..." She added, that odd grinning forming firmly as her blue eyes fell back onto Tehr's.

Re: Oh dear.
Tehr blinked, an oddity or sorts shuffling across the putrid yellow that was his eyes, he broke away from her eyes looking at the drow standing around them
"Fetch my students, bring me a whip and then get away from me." They moved instantly, the tension in his words driving them to obey.
He turned back to Ryleigh, yellow locking with blue, her pathetic posture on the floor, sheltering a concust peer, covered in grime and dried blood. Yet still proud, still challenging and defiant.
He shifted closer, kneeling before her, as always every muslce ready to move in an instant.
"Why?" he asked her simply, knowing she should be dead by now, her or Celest, the one teaching the other a lesson with her death screams.

Re: Oh dear.
Ryleighs eyes lowered with his body, locking her gaze with him once again as he leveled himself with her, by ways of a kneel.
She raised her eyebrow and tilted her head slightly.
"Well I would think it obvious." She began with a raised expression, a light chuckle escaping.
"One who steps out of their place gets severly punished, hence why you have over 50 students here bleeding and crying." She explained, her tone slightly arrogant, knowing she was getting to him in someway.
"That rule, I believe follows in all sorts of tribes, all sorts of cultures, all sorts of species...and I know it applies here, and with you." She added, her grin widening, iced eyes flicking to the Hydra and back to Tehr.

Re: Oh dear.
Tehr leaned forward slowly, raising his hand slowly, eyes on hers the entire time, it swept through the air, a flick of the hand before his arm twisted with it. The crack of flesh on flesh as he slapped her face hard, driving her head down, welt already forming on her cheek.
"Answer me straight slave and do it now." Something lurked in his hissed voice, yellow eyes impassive and cold once again.

Re: Oh dear.
Ryleighs neck snapped to the side with the slap, her teeth gritted, her cheek exploding with pain, she endured it, turning quickly back to Tehr, her blue eyes equally as cold, a triumphant grin planting itself on her face.
"You see." She hissed softly. "I stepped out of line I suppose, so I got punished." She added, her eyes closing and rolling under her dirty eyelids, when they opened, iced pupils stared at the eight headed beast keeping the already terrified students in check.
"Who owns that hydra?" She asked, tactfully, purposefully ignoring his command, her triumphant grin still in place.
