"They are gathering up the healers and scavanging the quarters." Zurina said simply, dispair in her voice. Everything she had worked so hard for placed so easily in the hands of those who would do it harm, it almost made her cry.

so then magician's quarter's is out? healer's quarters is out. though if we wait until they move elsewhere we might be able to go there. they won't think to come back. and we have to think that they'll likely guess we'll use the secret passages sooner or later. how about the arena? though I don't think there are any secret passages to there though.

"It's an open place, they could see, hear and smell us from afar. The dome would be bad, too, since there is just one entrance. being so few, we have to coinsider to lose the battle, as hard as it sounds. In that case, we have to be able to flee. Maybe a place in the university would be better. We can't face them all at the same time, they're too many."

the university does seem the best opinion and perhaps losing isn't bad. it good be good or bad. if everything goes right we can subdo them in one go since they would be attacking and they're all likely to be there. Alira your good with stun strikes and forces strikes and so aren't you? If you could do that I can hold the shield. we all know I'm good with shields. and perhaps, if it's possible, Zurina can subdo the werewolves from a distance.

"Alright, I can attack them while you shield, but what shall we do with the werewolves after we've stunned them? Zurina, can you heal them?" Alira looked deeply concerned. The only other way to cure the werewolves she could think of was biting them herself, which would make them undead. (btw, where are we right now? already in the passage under the univerity?)

"I can't just heal them with magic, there is a serum that is need, its in the healing quarters, we'd need to get that. They are still at the healing quarters, if you stun them i could perhaps make it into the quarters to get it, i know where it is. How long can they be stunned for?"

"I'm not sure... werewolves are strong magical beasts, they are slightly resistent against usual magic. It would be easier to knock them out for me. But the untransformed people I can't knock out, I would break their necks. Since Jmerc is the only warrior, it will be a rather small problem to stun them. Anyway, it would be better to sneak past them, would make it easier, you know..." Suddenly, she turned around, staring into the darkness behind her. Alira could smell something, two persons. She recognised her own novice Charen, and Vinara hurring towards the little groups of defenders.

Charen ran through the passages. She saw a light in the distant and hurried towards it. Recognising her guardian, she stopped. Something was wrong about her. Looking closer, she realised Alira’s eyes were shining green, and her canine tooth were so long they were visible under her lips. Charen looked at her questioningly and shocked. “Alira? What’s wrong with you?” She barely realised Vinara was coming to a halt next to her.

Alira looked slightly embarrased. Charen was her cousin, her novice, she should set an example, but here she was, a vampire, undead. "I'm a vampire..." Her voice was no more than a soft, cold whisper.

Vinara stood frozen to the spot. A vampire. Werewolves. Where was this heading to? She forced herself to push aside all the questions she felt rising inside her and asked: What is this all about? Werewolves taking over the Guild? Where did they come from?

"err well I don't know about the werewolves. I know Indria got biten a few months back. so the other werewolves could be from her bites. alright, should we go? I do believe Akkarin wants us out of his basement. lets go up to the entrance." Lorlyn started up the basement stairs and opened the door. Lorlyn paused glancing down at the others and opened the door and stepped though heading towards the sitting room. "Alira, perhaps a powerful stunstrike with a forcestrike would knock them out better" said lorlyn as she prepared herself to put up a shield.

"Hopefully. Anyway, I can move pretty fast being like this, like I said, knocking them out would be a lot easier. But I'll try to fight those who are still human with strikes, I don't want to break their necks." Alira followed Lorlyn slowly out of the door, peering into the darkness, sensing her environment through vision, sounds, smells and her magical abilities. The werewolves weren't close, they still had some time.

Vinara pushed away her fear and doubts and forcerd herself to concentrate on the task which lay in front of the little group. She hid her aura so not to be too obvious to the enemy and streched out her will so to be aware of an attack as early as possible. Her thoughts wandered to Akkarin who had gone to meet the enemy alone. Should she go and try to find him? No. He was strong and used to fight alone. This little group however needed everyone in their ranks they could get. The Novices would be in even more danger then the rest of them, not having learned as much as the Magicians. And Akala had only just joined the Guild. She took a deep breath and tried to steel herself against what was bound to come. She would most likely be fighting against her former teachers and friends. For now, the only thing she could do, was hoping that noone would be harmed badly and that everything would be sorted out to be all right in the end...

Zurina followed the Administrator and whispered, "I thought those two were warewolfs?" Either way, Zurina wanted to know the plan. "Before we go, what is our solid plan of attack?

Alright everyone, don't stray to far. I'm going to put the shield up. Plan well if we go out there they'll see us. they're still raiding the healing quaters. and that's where we want to go. It would be unwise to go while they are there. We should watch for them to move on. Perhaps someone should send a thought out saying were going to the univerty and lead them the wrong way"
