(OOC Sorry, guys. I had a thing.)
Leaf levels the crossbow again and fires a bolt at the nearest goblin.

1372946 1372976 1375072

((OOC: No biggie, Isaac, S'all good.))

The crossbow bolt flew straight and true, piercing through the little beast with great strength. The goblin squealed and hollered before finally succumbing to his fate, as his companions all watched with growing anger. The screams of hate that came from the rest of the goblin horde became a growing crescendo. Deafening and annoying, but full of danger.

"Well, that's one way to negotiate with goblins..." Said the human, who was now standing next to the fluffy being. "Master Leaf, Mistress Ami," Nori looked at Fluff. "...you. We now have a problem."

His hands lit up in flames, as his companions readied themselves for battle.

The goblins fired their bows, threw their javelins, and charged.

((OOC: Going AFK lol))

Ami got on her bicycle, and drew her sword.
"This'll be fun." She said... as an arrow flew at her head.
"Woah!" She yelled, while pulling her head off to avoid the arrow.

1375313>>1375345
"Come on. Let's go, you green little sons of mules." Leaf reloads his crossbow, fires, reloads once more, and fires a second bolt at another goblin using the Nimble Fingers encounter power to shoot twice in one turn.

(OOC How many goblins are there?)

1375664>>1375345>>1375313

PFPFFPFPFPFP! (THEIR HATE IS DELICIOUS!)

Fluff rolls through the battle, arrows and bolts getting lost in the magical fur, and as if some magical force was inside the fluff, each arrow and bolt would soon be shot back out from the fluff.

1375345 1375664 1376483

((There were a hundred and twenty goblins at first, but while this goes on, they've lost plenty. Fluff is fighting twenty, Nori is fighting fifteen, while Ami and Leaf are fighting forty eight, or twenty four each.))

The goblins were swift and brutal. They ran furiously at Fluff, trying to pin him down with their spears and arrows, but it was all in vain. One very bewildered goblin found out that he could stick a whole meter of his pike into Fluff without causing any damage, and he hadn't touched bottom yet.

Whichever filthy beast attempted to confront Fluff the Barbarian was sent flying meters into the air before crashing back down with tremendous force, becoming unconscious almost immediately. Fluff swung his mighty foam sword with great skill, battling at least twenty of the creatures at the same time.

Meanwhile, another fifteen of the beasts lunged at Nori, who yelped and started to kick as many of them away as possible. His legs were covered in a blue aura, however, and any goblin he kicked was sent flying over the trees and out of sight. He alternated from yelping to shouting, and his hands started to shoot green bolts of energy that zapped the goblins and sent them running.

Meanwhile, two more of the beasts were slain by Leaf's bolts. Their bodies writhed in pain as the goblins died, but this did nothing more than anger and infuriate the goblin army further. The remaining bulk of the goblins threw themselves at Ami and Leaf, numbering more than four dozens.

1377332 PFFFF!

Several goblins tried to jump Fluff, they tried to hold the fluffy pony thing down, but as they soon found out that the fur was slowly trying to eat them. Those that were smart enough to pull away, soon found themselves hating less and instead fighting along side Fluff or leaving the battle entirely.

Pufff!

1377332 1377419 1375664
Ami struck down another Goblin, and another, and another, she was getting really REALLY tired.
"It's almost like... there's no end to them..." She says as she finished another goblin.

A sword-wielding goblin jumped at Ami, she tried to block the attack, but it was to no avail, as she took a stab to the right arm which went through a weak point in her armor. "GAH!" She cried out in pain.
She swung her sword at the Goblin, but he pulled out his sword and dodged.
She swung her sword again, this time more accurately, it cut off the goblins head.

Ami continued fighting, ignoring that she was bleeding profusely.
Her vision blurs, and she collapses.
"Damn... Must have... Got an artery..." She said, as she passed out.

1377332>>1377419>>1377536
Leaf realizes that the goblins have closed in, leaving his beloved crossbow at a disadvantage. He reluctantly slings it back onto his side and draws his shortsword, much to his dismay given his inferiority in melee combat.

He brandishes the shortsword at the goblins, a desperate bluff to frighten them back, given that most low goblin minions can be frightened easily.

1377419 1377536 1378513

The battle grows fierce! Goblins dart in and out with vicious rage, slashing and hacking away at the four strange fighters. Spears and arrows continue to fly with horrid accuracy, and it takes a lot from the fighters to avoid them all while still battling the goblin horde.

One one side of the battle, Fluff the Barbarian has managed to turn the tide of battle. The goblins that clung to his magical fluff were slowly eaten by the endless fur. They slowly disappeared to parts unknown, screaming madly all the while. Then, there where those that answered the call of the fluff!

Goblins growled and jumped off the fluffy warrior, turning to face their brethren. Spears and swords flashed as the goblins turned on their own, all to defend the fluff! It took but seconds before the goblins that remained were locked in melee with each other, and Fluff was left alone in the middle of the field.

For Nori, the battle was turning slowly, but for his benefit. The goblins that he zapped ran away in terror, crashing into others and causing a massive turmoil. Those he kicked were never seen again, and the morale of the goblin army was breaking.

"Almost done! How are- Damn it!" He kicked away a goblin that had clung to his arm. "How are you all doing?!" He turned around to look at the others and grimaced.

Ami was laying on the floor, many dead goblins surrounding her. The beasts were angrily poking her armored body with their spears, unable to pierce the armor, but still inflicting many small cuts and bruises. Her head was being merrily tossed back and forth by a couple of them, as well as the head of the goblin that had injured her.

Leaf Walker was faring better, but not by much. The goblins at the front lines faltered and doubted, but those behind them pushed their brethren into combat whether they wanted it or not. Leaf Walker was soon face to face with his foes.

1380215 1378513 1377419
Ami's head woke up.
Oh right, head's separated from the body. she thought.
She then noticed she was being thrown around by the Goblins.
The goblins probably think I'm dead, might as well play along for now, although it IS pretty annoying... she thought.

1380215>>1377536>>1377419
"Ah, to Tartarus with it!" Leaf shouts as he swipes a quick swing at the goblin in front of him with the small sword followed by a quick jab to his left. "Everyone! Form up!"

1380706>>1380503>>1380215

PPFPFPFPFP! FFPFPFP! (GOBLINS! Form up!

The fluff goblins started making a wall, using many of their fallen brethren and shields. The Fluff Goblins huddled around Leaf and Fluff The Barbarian.

1380503 1380706 1381268

Nori heard Leaf Walker's shout over the noise of goblins scampering away in fright. The human smiled and clapped his hands together, creating a thunderous roar that made the goblins scream and cover their ears, with the ones closest to him falling unconscious.

"On my way!" Shouted the man as he ran, knocking survivors aside with more kicks and swipes of his hands. He reached Leaf and Fluff, who were already positioned for the fight. Many goblins stood next to the peculiar heroes, wielding spears and swords. Ready to defend the fluffy pony.

Ami was still on the ground, but the goblins surrounding her had long left her there, opting to join their comrades in a final assault. Her head was laid down a few meters away from her body, and her sword had been dropped next to her bicycle.

The goblins snarled and growled. Nori lit his hands on fire and looked at the fluffy pony.

"You are still weird."

Then, the final battle commenced. The goblins threw themselves at the three fighters, and began to viciously batter at them.

1387089>>1381268
Leaf took all of three seconds to scan for a better tactical situation before climbing atop the cart for a height advantage. "Fluff, you're a fighter. I want you to form a wall and keep the bastards at as much range as you can. Nori, I want you taking the ground between us. You're the last line of close range defense. Any of those green blooded gnomes get beyond Fluff, light them up. Ami..." He looks at her corpse, continuing to get stabbed by goblins. "... Um... Keep doing.. that, I guess." He then drew his crossbow and started laying down fire as quickly as possible to thin out the ranks coming at Fluff and Nori.

1387292 1387089 1381268
"Hey! It's not like I CAN do anything, my body's passed out!" Ami's head angrily yells at Leaf.

1387089>>1387292>>1388839

PFPFPFPPFPPP!!!(ATTACK!!!)

The goblins rushed it, taking much of each group out. Several goblin medics stayed behind the line, trying their best to protect the fluff and his companions.
