Whitetail Woods
Outskirt
"…and that’s why I like stomping more dan daka," finished Bluddflagg as we made our way out of the forest. For the short time we had been walking he had explained the entire ork culture, sub species and his personal life.
"Well, I must say, that was very interesting" I said, while keeping my eyes on the road. So I'm traveling with an alien whose sole purpose is to loot and fight? Wonderful... I thought while stealing a quick glance at the Kaptin.
"Oy! Humie! Looks like there’s something ahead" Bluddflagg suddenly pointed out causing me to, obviously, look ahead. As I strained my eyes I could see some kind of trees and a red barn in the distance.What kind of creatures inhabit this cartoon world? Are they dangerous? Will they send me back home? All of these thoughts ran across my mind as we closed the distance.
"What’s with these zoggin’ trees?" Bluddflagg commented with annoyance. Are those apple trees? I wondered as we reached the tree line
"They must be some kind of fruits. We should find the owner of this place and see if they could help us" Bluddflagg just nodded his head and we proceeded towards the barn.
-------------------------------------
It looks like no one is here at the moment. I realized while scanning the strangely empty farm.
"This place has no proper orkie value! I should just smash this entire plac-" ranted Bluddflagg, but was suddenly interrupted by a voice in the distance.
"IM BEING CHASED!!" What now! I frantically thought as we turned to face the culprit. A man with a lab coat, short black hair, black boots and a hat with a symbol printed on it was running for his life as he was chased by a… cartoon, horse?
You must be kidding me…
The horse had a red coat and a brown mane it also had an apple tattoo on its rump. The man was now running towards us while waving his hands. "I will do anyzing, just stop ze horse!" the man pleaded with a German accent. I snapped out of my trance and turned towards Bluddflagg
"Let’s help him, before he gets himself killed!" I waved my arms.
"Finally! Some stomping" Bluddflagg laughed as he readied his weapons.
“Just don't kill it, okay? We have to be in good terms with the natives or well be stuck here. Forever"! I said with nervousness while looking at his weapons. Bluddflagg just grumbled under his breath and dropped his weapons. The man fastened his pace and quickly hid behind me causing Bluddflagg to snort.
Play this for better a experience
"Is true that red ones go fastah..." Bluddflagg said as he took a step closer towards the charging horse narrowing his eyes on the process. "But.." The horse just now realized how massive the ork was. "…you zoggin squid have no idea that...." The horse shook its head and charged towards Bluddflagg. "GREEN. IS. DA. BEST!!" Bluddflagg roared as he raised his foot and brought it down, sending a small quake towards the red horse. The horses eyes widened and it tried to stay in balance, but it was futile. The quake sent the horse head first into an apple tree knocking it out cold, causing me to wince at the sight.
That was pretty clever and strangely awesome...
" Iz it gone?" the man cautiously peered from my shoulder, sighing in relief when he saw the unconscious horse.
"What in the world did you do to piss off that horse?" I asked and while turning towards the man. The man just scratched his head.
"Well… After I woke up in zat strange barn I realized zat I had lost my veapons! So I vent and searched for zem outside, but zen ze horse noticed me and began to chase me!"
Woke up? So he too has been sent here from another world...
"How did you get here?" I asked. The man’s face darkened and I swear I saw his eye twitch.
"I rather not talk about it right now......" if words could kill this guy would by a perfect killing machine....Wait… weapons?
"Do you happened to be a mercenary?" I cautiously asked
"Well of course mein freund! Is ze best job" The man replied with an eerie glee
So the man we saved is a psychopathic killer? Why me...
"Ooh! I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Medic. Or Doctor. Which ever you prefer" Medic presented his hand.
" A pleasure to meet you, Medic" I replied and shook his hand
"Now zen, we should look for my weapons sinc- WHAT ZE HELL IS THAT!" Medic screamed while pointing at the ork standing behind me.
Did he just realize? I mentally face palmed and Bluddflagg just chuckled.
"I like your hat humie! Give it to the old Bluddflagg"
"WHAT!? I just got zis hat!" I quickly walked over to the angered Medic
"Just give it to him. Trust me" I whispered to him. Medic just looked at Bluddflagg and back to me sighing in defeat.
"Fine...” Medic handed his hat over to the Kaptin which he happily accepted. "Now zen let’s find my weapons so we can leave this accursed place"
"That won’t be necessary," a voice pointed out, almost causing me to scream out of surprise. We all turned around to the owner of the voice. Standing in front me was the most intimidating thing i have ever seen
He was as tall as Bluddflagg and was wearing a bloodied armor along with a massive sword and a gun.
By the Gods....
Bluddflagg narrowed his eyes and raised his weapons. "Stinky chaos boy..."
"Believe me, ork, that I would have slaughtered you on sight" The man replied as he threw a bunch of weapons to the ground which medic quickly took "But since the situation is quite different I have not done so." The man stated “I came here for a proposition, you see this world has blocked my access to the warp effectively stranding me here and it seems you all have suffered the same fate, so let us be allies for this time since we pursue the same goal and the chances of succeeding are far much greater traveling in a group rather than to aimlessly wander this wretched world alone"
"Ze man speaks the truth. Ze more powerful allies we have ze better, who knows if ze natives are hostile? " The medic agreed. Should I trust this man? His armor is covered in blood for god’s sake!
"Ho-how do we now that we can trust you?" I blurted out
"As I said: you all would be dead if I wasn't serious" the man replied in a matter of fact voice. It seems I have no choice in the matter... I turned to Bluddflagg
"This does seem the logical option we should let him come since he seems to have no ill intentions" For now
"Oh zog me, fine! Let’s just get this over with"
"We will settle our differences in our world ork, but for now…" the man walked over to me. "I am lord Eliphas the Inheritor a servitor of Khorne." Eliphas introduced himself. Now I have to fear for my life even more.
"Let us make haste to the nearest village. Perhaps they have some knowledge to shed of where we are" Eliphas said and turned around to walk away.
"Ze day iz getting veirder and veirder" Medic sighed. Why do I have the feeling that this day is gonna get worse...?
To be continued.
