Part Seventy Seven
Another Epic Battle
"It makes me relax when all looks bleak,"
poeticalled Harry. Turf charged the skeletons conversing on Corky.
He cracked one in the head with his Big Sword and it turned toward
him (the skeleton not the Big Sword). Also, the rest of them turned
toward him. They all began swinging wildly at Turf with their
weapons. They all began missing Turf too. Harry and Dade copied the
skeletons. Except they attacked the skeletons and not Turf. But they
were copying the missing exactly.
"Aren't we a pair," prolonged Harry.
Corky smashed a skeleton in the skull with his
Shorter Sword and spun it about. "Go Corky," helped Turf
as he bashed another skeleton again but didn't hurt it hardly at
all. The skeletons continued to flail wildly with their swords (not
flails. So maybe they sworded wildly) and continued to miss too. As
did Dade and Harry. But it was all very exciting and filled with
rivets and tension. Especially when Corky smacked another one! What
action!
"We need a cleric guy to turn these
things," strategized Harry as Turf poked another skeleton with
his Big Sword.
"Yeah," agreed Turf thinking they were
playing some other stoopid Roller Playing System where Healing Guys
were called clerics and could do something called 'turning'.
"Well, we can wait until the silly boys can
play," pointed out Dade referring to silly Buster and extra
silly Rocko who were sitting in the entry way to this long halled
room doing really secret and mysterious things that didn't involve
participating in the skeleton fight.
