Attack!

[Magpie]

Magpie had gathered up a group of some of the most skilled bandits, and was now heading towards Glenroys Shop, 'Cutting Edge'. He stopped suddenly, and decided to wait until nightfall to attack the shop, he needed Hawk to contact him over the seal anyway. The group headed into the inn, and got some rest before the attack. Just as Magpies head hit the pillow, he heard Hawks voice over the Bandit Seal.

"The shop is empty! Attack now!" Hawk said through the seal.
Magpie jumped up, and shook awake the other bandits, they dived through the windows of the inn, and let out a great battle cry, Magpie smashed down the door of Cutting Edge, and launched a fireball into the back of the shop, the group ran in, bagging goods, and setting fire to things, gold was taken from the cash register, as they were about to leave the store though, a group of guards, and a hero protector arrived.
"STICK 'EM BOYS!" Magpie yelled to his group. He launched a ball of lightning at the group, killing two guards instantly, he drew his knife, and ran into the group of guards, with his bandits following. The battle begun.

[Glenroy Steelforge]

Arriving at Bowerstone Glenroy saw Bandits fighting with guards all around the shop-front. Running forward he decapitated a bandit and saved the guard he was fighting. Seeing a wizard at the centre of the fighting. Sprinting towards him he lunged with his sword about to skewer the seemingly oblivious wizard. His sword bounced straight off an invisible barrier around him. "What are you?" Glenroy shouted. The wizard only laughed.

[Magpie]

Magpie looked around, his Bandits were dwindling in numbers, but the guards were even less in numbers. The shop was now burning, it would collapse soon, and take a long long time to rebuild. He passed his sack of loot to another bandit. Steelforge was too busy staring in awe and fear at Magpies will lines, to do anything else.
"You're in charge, get out of here! Jobs done!" He yelled to the bandit.

The group of bandits pushed past the guards, and ran for the gates, escaping Bowerstone. Magpie grabbed Steelforge, and teleported both of them away into a nearby alley. Glenroy went to lunge at him yet again, but Magpie used his will to throw his weapon away against the wall.

"I shall not kill you or harm you, it is only a lesson to be taught. The Bandit King has been patient, but you have made people abandon his cause, leave us alone, we shall leave you alone." Magpie finished his sentence, and grabbed Steelforge yet again, teleporting outside of his store.

Magpie launched a jet of water over 'Cutting Edge' and put out the flames, stopping the shop from collapsing, and taking anymore damage. Magpie turned, grinned at Glenroy, and teleported away to where his bandits were.

[Glenroy Steelforge]

"Bastard!" Glenroy screamed after him. He had noticed the wizard's weakness however. And intended to use it.

[Griff Trevin]

Griff arrived, and it seemed to be too late.
"Glenroy!!!" Griff shouted running towards him.
Glenroy was standing, staring at the corpse of what was once a beautiful shop.
"I'm sorry I'm late, I got jumped by a few bandits outside the gate. Though it was strange, they didn't try to harm me, just restrain me. I managed to break free and they all ran off. I'm sorry about your shop, this is all my fault"
Griff looked around at the carnage, it was terrible to see, and couldn't believe that Hawk had issued such an order.
"I'll help you rebuild, but I have a suggestion. How about we get some assistance? Not for the shop rebuilding though. I'm talking about getting back at who did this. I'll help you with this on one condition, I don't want revenge on Hawk, only the person who did this to your shop. If Hawk gets involved its your fight, I'll keep everyone else away while you take him on" Griff said
It was time to stop running away, Griff was mad and the senseless killing needed to stop

[Magpie]

Magpie stood on top of the hill, the bandits behind him, rummaging through the loot, he snatched up his bag, and sneakingly teleported back to the store he had just destroyed, on the top floor, he dropped in all the gold he had on him, into the bag.
1000 gold.
Magpie teleported away back to the hill, he looked back at the shop, sighing slightly, and feeling the smallest pang of regret at what he'd done. He would return later, and talk to Steelforge.

[Glenroy Steelforge]

Searching through the wreckage upstairs Glenroy found a bag. "What's this?" he wondered aloud. It was no less than 1000 gold.

[Magpie]

[[He also slipped a note inside it btw. I forget to mention it.]]


I hope this gold helps you to partially rebuild your shop, and I returned some of your goods.

- The leader of the attackers, Mage Magpie.

[Griff Trevin]

Griff looked surprised at the fact that the leader of the raid had returned some money. Why do such a thing?
"Well Glenroy? What shall we do then, I will help you rebuild if you wish"Griff asked

[Glenroy Steelforge]

I'll call in some men to do it. However in the meantime I want to join the arena. Here's 50 gold for the inn while i'm gone.

[Griff Trevin]

"Thankyou Genroy, I appreciate it, I will be around town, I might even head over to the guild and see about joining it. You should be able to find me if you need me" Griff said.
After Glenroy left Griff decided to leave and head to the guild. He was curious about joining, but wasn't too sure.
