Not Yo Momma's Priestesses

[Stargazer]

A lone female paced along a white marble terrace slowly. Her gold gown accented by her red hair made her look quite striking. She was older, but young enough to turn heads. She wore a stressed expression, betrayed through small wrinkles at her brow. Most would kill to be in her position: money, dresses, she had it all. Yet, she was unhappy. From a young age she had been raised getting everything she wanted, and had grown into a woman who always got what she wanted. Not this time, though. What she wanted was something barely heard of. A statue of the goddess Rojanatestra. A long name for such an unknown goddess to be sure, but the small idol hidden within the depths of her lone temple was what she wanted. It promised unbelievable beauty to its user. Gail wanted it, and she was going to try and get it. But not by herself, oh no. That would be left for someone else to do. She didn’t do her own dirty work. If word got around about her robbing a temple, it would do no good to her social score.

“Excuse me, mistress Gail?”

The man was broad chested, and had a shaved head. His skin was a golden brown from long hours outside, and one of his green eyes completely white. Forget the blind eye and the scars that covered his arms, he was a winner. He always won, and that was why Gail had hired him. She had called for him yesterday. Jak had been on a trip to ruin the delivery of her twin sister’s wedding dress. Rumor had it the dress was gorgeous. Gail couldn’t take competition. Just another reason why she needed the idol.

“Yes, Jak I do have a new job for you. The mission, I will brief the commoners on. You may bring them to my study when you have them. Use what you can to bend them to my will. Get dirt on them, torture, whatever you need.”

“Yes ‘m lady.”

“Oh, and Jak.”

“Yes?”

“Please don’t find wimps like last time. Jesse and Jessie, the twin assassins just didn’t have the tough I was looking for. Your reward is waiting for you in the basement.”

With that, she walked out of the balcony, not without giving her servant a wink. She knew how to play all of her pawns.

[The SpellSword]

As Max was walking around he saw a soldier hustling around town obviously looking for something or someone. Max didn’t care right now as long as he got his food from the butcher shop. He got into the butcher shop and asked the butcher “My usual in yet?”

“We are just killing the creature now.” The butcher replied as a young man came out from behind badly bruised and with a gaping wound in his shoulder. His face looking paler then vanilla ices cream.

“Umm sir we have a little problem back there.” The young man said to the butcher as Max stared at his gaping wound that was too big for a bull to of made unless the young man did more damage trying to get away.

“Great, Max I need a favor of you.” The butcher started “I knew this would happen soon enough but u had perfect timing. The bull we are trying to kill is retaliating and attacking our guys 1 did it before. I am asking you to go back there and take care of it for the satisfactory of getting your own meat.”

“Sure, sir.” Max said as he walked past the young man “and next time don’t pull away you only make wound bigger.”

“Max!” the young man yelled as Max just about opened the door. “I didn’t pull away this is just a tip of his horn.

Max thought this as he started going down towards the bullpen. ”Great if that’s just the tip I hate to see how big this bull really is.” As max opened the door he saw one great big huge bull bigger then him. After he got over his amazement at the bull he looked and saw around half a dozen guys trying to get close to this thing.

“You expect me to get close to that thing without any food in my belly?” Max asked as he grabbed the hilt of his long sword

“Well the way you brag about all your adventures with giant beasts this should be a synch.” The butcher responded with some saucy ness to his voice.

Max approached the door where two guys were scrambling to get out. “Let them out they are only a distraction to me.” Max started to get his game face on and get his adrenaline pumping.

“Close the door and only open it when I walk towards the door!” Max barked authoritively.

“Yes, Sir!” the man at the gate said.

Max entered the bullpen and saw the bull chasing one single man. ”Now I have to save someone’s life sheesh! Max summoned a fireball in his hand and started concentrating this is where his math skills came in handy. He guessed where the bull would be when he threw his fireball and guessed how long his fireball would take to go there. He whipped his fireball hard. It crashed into the bull’s neck and the bull skidded to a halt just before it crushed a man into the wall.

“Run!” Max screamed at the top of his lungs, as the bull didn’t want for Max to get ready he just charged full force.

Max started running until he made the bull arrive in the middle of the arena then he stopped out of nowhere just to shoulder roll to the side just in time. “Big dumb Bull!” Max thought as he came up with the perfect plan to de-horn the bull.

“Come get me!” Max said as he got a firm grip on his sword’s hilt.

The bull charged him full force again but this time Max was prepared. Just before the Bull hit him with his horns. Max shoulder rolled to the left as he engulfed his sword in flames and came down and sliced one of the bull’s horns off. Max grabbed the horn and thought ”Pretty heavy for a horn.”

Max turned around and wailed the bulls horn towards the Bulls but. It connected with such a force it made the Bull topple over and trip.

“Wow! That sure was easy.” Max said as he walked over towards the gate from whence he entered in.

As Max was almost at the door you could hear the Bull moaning in pain as it got back up and started running as fast as he could towards max again. Doesn’t this thing ever give up? Max thought as he shoulder rolled to the right and engulfed his sword in flames again as he came down and cut off the bull’s other horn.

As the bull ran past Max reached out and grabbed the horn that was in the bulls but. Max now had two horns with which he could kill the bull. He instantly got a plan. He sheathed his sword and grabbed both horns.

His plan was wait tell the bull charges him again. Then he would side step and throws the one horn at the bulls but again. Then when the bull charges him again in a painful rage he would throw the other horn at the bull’s face and hopefully killing him. Max did just that and ended up killing the bull

“Bravo! Bravo.” came a voice from up on top of the gate. “I have a proposition to give you if you would so kindly come with me!”

The guy asked and as long as he got his bull steak and got some money from this proposition he was happy.
