Ertha mostly ignored the situations with her 'squadmates', instead gazing at Luka's so-called companion and plotting of ways she could take him out if things go wrong... or escape, if things go really wrong. She'd just be with the lieutenant now, missing both the civilian and the other knight, so her odds of success seem higher if there's a dangerous incident in the future. Unfortunately, there was still the problem with her being weaponless. If she tries to run, she'll have to come back for them.

Seeing that the others were handing over their weapons, Alane handed over her tome and her Talismon. She was a bit confused when Luka singled out Keira and her to talk alone. What could he possibly have to say that he couldn't in front of the others? Still, she didn't see any reason not to speak with the man. He was a guard of Schwarzberg and had helped them into the city. Waiting patiently as the others were led away, so they could get whatever conversation Luka had in mind underway.

Ertha: 2 + 18 = 20
Despite her usual keen eye for danger, Ertha doesn't seem to sense anything suspicious. She did feel something else though. Under her gloves she feels her fingernails lengthen becoming like claws. Her teeth took a sharp, more wild shape.
Meanwhile, when Alane puts hands over her talisman and tome Luka smiles. "Good to see you comply. I still want to speak with you." He says as the guard raises his eyebrow. Alane's hair begins grow past her shoulders. Like Robert, her eyelashes lengthen as well to go with the increasing blush in her cheeks.
It doesn't seem like Luka with let Keira head to the latrine. Taking a quick peek downstairs, she finds something that shouldn't be their. Resting their you could see a 4-inch cock resting their over your vagina. You don't have much time to react though as your group of four split into two.

Out of the darkness, a large pair of hands try to grab Ertha. At the same time, the guard who lead you both into the room attempts to grab Robert. But the two of you deftly dodge the gripping hands and end up back to back. While the guard blocks the door, the larger man steps out of the shadows revealing a hulking brute wearing nothing but white trousers and a red bandana as a mask.
"I missed Arthur. What now?" The large brute asked with a confused expression. Arthur just sighed. "Just try again. We have to subdue them before we hand them over."

The sound of the door locking behind them perked Roberts ears to something being a miss and she nimbly stepped to the side as the man turned and lunged for her, repeating the movement so often trained on the parade field.
Feeling the Theif behind her, she eyes up to the men, guessing Arthur was in charge by the questions the oafish brute asked.
"What is the meaning of this?" she snapped, drawing her sabre, "You dare attack an officer of the Royal Litchstadt Army on official business?"
If either of them approached she would slash at them with the sabre, wishing now she had not given her pistols away so easily.

Ertha felt an odd sensation in her hands as they were walking. She reached for her glove to pull one off, and she was quite surprised by what she found. Her nails were much longer than before, and apparently quite sharp. They stabbed small holes in the tips of her gloves. She had no idea what to make of it, but she was betting it was that weird potion those rapist bastards dropped. She sighed in annoyance. Should have been more careful. At least these changes were relatively minor, for now... the thought came to her that the rest of her 'team' had also drank the elixir, did their hands get like that too?
She had no chance to investigate her body further or (begrudgingly) try to get ask the lieutenant any questions, before they were in the dark room and she heard the door lock. Her danger senses were tingling, and they proved her correct when she had to dodge some brute's attempt at grabbing her. She almost immediately attacked the man, but the realization of her situation was quick to sink in. Dark room. Locked door. Small room. Caged. Her heart started beating quicker, she trembled in fear, her hair standing up as she looked around with terror in her eyes. She was suffocating, chained, alone in a dark room away from human contact -
Ertha shook her head from the thoughts. She had to focus. Trying to steel her nerves, she glared at the large brute who tried to grab her. "... don't think they care about your rank..." In some meager attempt to ground herself in reality, she muttered a snarky response at Robert. At least the good ole' officer still had his sabre. After that, Ertha decided to try and gain the upper hand quickly, rushing at the brute with the intention to kick him as hard as she could in the kneecap, though her lack of a real weapon convinced her to remain on edge and ready to move in case of an attack.

Alane nodded not noticing her hair lengthening just yet. "Sure, but can we really not share this with the squad?" She waited as the others left being caught by surprise when Luka mentioned things being easier if Keira had given up her weapon. Then the other man, Gustav came out and Luka drew a lance. "Luka, what are you talking about? I'm going to the city with my squad." She couldn't just let this happen, but without her tome and talisman what could she do. Seeing no alternative, she stepped between Luka and Keira spreading her arms to cover the other girl. "Stop this, we aren't here for trouble."

Keira was taken aback by Alane's interjection. It was the first kindness any members of the party had shown to her. Despite how kind the gesture was, Luka and Gustav where still the focus of Keira's attention. "I don't think these two are keen to speak any longer Alane." She said as she raised up her spear and swung it in a wide arc. She used the blade to slash at Luka tyring to open up vein or artery.

Ertha & Robert
Combat Rolls
When Ertha tries to kick the hulking brute, it feels like kicking a wall. But it does the job and she manages to trip him up. The floor shakes as he falls to the ground. Meanwhile, when the guard begins to approach Robert, the Litchstadt solider swung her sword to keep him away. Cutting him across the cheek. He growled and responded by shoving the butt of his staff into your gut. "Stand aside boy! We only want the woman." The guard said staring at Ertha. He still stood in the way of the door.
__________________________________________
Keira & Alane
Combat Roll
Despite her pleas, Luke seemed intent to subdue the two of you. But it was Keira who took the first chance to strike. With a swing of her spear, she cuts the guard's thigh leaving a deep cut. Though she doesn't hit an artery. Limping forward, Luka takes a strange stance as he points his spear at you. Thrusting forward, you could feel the air displaced by the force of the spear as it misses your side. Stepping back, Luka and Keira square off. Just behind Luka you could see Gustav lifted a Lantern and began to shake it. The fire grew brighter until a ball of fire began to float slowly towards Keira and Alane.
Just begin the Gustav and Luka, Alane could see the chest with all their weapons. and it was still unlocked. She could make a run for it, but without Keira's protection, she would be completely vulnerable.

She cursed under her breath, hopping a little on one foot as she moved away from the downed giant. The hell was he made out of?! Almost felt like her foot was broken. She turned around to see the situation behind her, eyes scanning and focusing on the soldier as he squared off against Robert. Her jaw clenched when she heard the soldier's remark, eyes narrowing with anger. Could it really be so simple as them going through all this trouble for a piece of ass? No... probably slavery. They most likely wanted to take her, the civilian, and the knight as their sex slaves, or sell them off to some disgusting old bastard. Her skin crawled at the brief thought of it, fear and disgust of the undesirable fate that would befall her if they managed to capture her... she won't let that happen.
Ertha turned back to the brute, baring her recently sharpened teeth. With no other weapon but the claws that recently replaced her nails, she viciously attacked the brute, clawing at his chest and head with ruthless abandon. Partially to relieve some stress, partially because he deserved it (without a doubt, she's sure), and partially because she needed the biggest threat out of the fight so that her and the lieutenant could take out the soldier. Or rather, slaver.

Alane gave Luka a pleading smile as she hoped he would relent but was disappointed and disheartened to see that the man was unmoved by her words. Still, she was surprised when she heard Keira behind her and jumped to avoid the other woman's slash. Still upset about the fighting. she hesitated for a moment as she saw the two going at it until she saw Gustav beginning to prepare a spell. The two weren't going to leave them be, and if she didn't do something, Keira could be overwhelmed and seriously hurt. Her eyes falling on the chest where her tome had been left which was sitting there unlocked.
Steeling herself she called out a warning. "Keira, behind you, he's got a spell." She dashed over to the chest throwing it open reaching for her tome as soon as her eyes fell on it. Hopefully, she'd have time to throw her own fireball at Luka and perhaps give Keira some breathing room.

Rebecca recoiled more in shock than pain as the blow slightly winded her, trying to get her breathing back under control as she waved the sabre point about in front of her to keep distance from the man as she recovered.
"This 'boy' will turn you into a woman," she growled, dashing forward again to lash out with the sabre, trying to force the guard away from the door with a flurry of strikes.
If the two were after Ertha than it more important to get the Thief out of danger, Luka's words about the state of city haunting her thoughts. She realised the betrayal here was likely happening outside as well with the others and grimaced, action was needed. If they were only after the obvious women she should be safe for a time.
Gritting her teeth, she ducked low and tried to tackle the man, forcing him away from the door in a grapple to give Ertha a chance to run.
"Flee you fool!" she snapped at the theif, "Get to the others!"

"Thanks for the warning little miss." Called out Keira refusing to look back towards the spell. Glancing away, even for a moment, was a grave mistake in single combat. She was already one hit ahead of her opponent and she wasn't about to let him get in a free hit. She was careful to strafe around Luka and keep him at the edge of her range. Only attacking when he left an opening in his guard.

Ertha & Robert
Combat Rolls
Ertha claws at the large man. She still can't do much damage but it distracts the large brute enough. When he tries to retaliate, Ertha adeptly ducks the blow.
Meanwhile, Robert rushed towards the guard and took him to the ground. With the door open and the brute being as slow as he was, It wouldn't be a problem for Ertha to flee. But what would she do now? She could go retrieve her weapons and help her comrades. Or....
Outside the door in the other direction was the lower section of Schwarzberg. With everyone preoccupied, Ertha could make her escape into the city.
__________________________________________________
Keira & Alane
Combat Rolls
The ball of fire catches Luka completely off guard. He bends over in pain and looks to Alane with a surprised expression. The two lock eyes only for a moment until Keira's spear grazes by his face.
Trying to catch his breath, Luka pulls out a small syringe. "If you're gonna make this difficult, then so be it". A surprised look crossed Gustav's face. "Luka, Wait!"
But it was to late. After injecting the substance, Luka doubles over in pain. Screaming, his flesh begins to expand. Suddenly, his Left arm and right leg go limp and transform into a series tendrils. Looking up, you see part of the man seems to be sagging as if the skin was slipping of his skull.
"AUGHHHHH" He screams as he grabs his spear with the tendrils and slams it against Alane. He almost crushes the small girl into the ground. Almost knocked out, Alane rolls and coughs.
Using the confusion of Luka's Transformation to strike, Gustav throws a fireball at Keira. While he misses, it does draw attention to the will-o-wisp which was now in striking distance.

Hearing the lieutenant's demanding voice, she turned her head to glance over to him, adrenaline pumping and eyes wide. The exit was open, the guard on the ground and covered by Robert. She understood the chance that was given and decided to take it. Ertha immediately ran to the exit, wasting no time in getting out of the bad (and confined) situation she was in to escape into... someplace unfamiliar. She recognized that she was brought over here, but her mind was drifting at the time and she didn't pay attention. Which way was to the entrance... if the others are there, that is.
Then it dawned on her that she had the chance to escape. The team's in the middle of conflict. The lieutenant's in a dark room with two men, she doesn't know what the other knight's doing, but she's probably also distracted and with the civilian. She could just... leave, just like that. Rush out deeper into the city, sneak out somehow, or just go for the exit itself... this was easily the chance she had been waiting for. She turned to the city, conflicting thoughts telling her different things. This shouldn't be a hard decision to make... but the thought of leaving while people were in serious danger left a bad taste in her mouth. And while she didn't much care for the other knight, the civilian wasn't actually affiliated with her captors.
A voice in her head that sounded like her surrogate father and mentor spoke. 'Remember the code.' It said. 'Protect those who are honorable, hard-working people.' The lower classes. The small guys who the rich stepped on for their own gain... "Damn it." Her mind was made up. Ertha turned to the direction that seemed to lead back to the entrance, where her weapons would be. It'd just be to help that civilian, and she'd rush off not a moment sooner. She began running, hoping her moment of deliberation didn't take up too much time.

Alane quickly began gathering a second ball of flame as she saw the first one land not sure if the man was ready to surrender quite yet. Even after her and Keira's combined assault, he seemed unready to stop the fight pulling out a syringe. Her face turns to confusion when he moves to puss the needle into himself especially when she heard the concerned tone of Gustav's voice.
She was taken aback as he screamed out starting to actually grow in size. The confusion on her face was replaced with fear as an arm and leg erupted into tentacles. Just what had he injected into himself? She stood there slack-jawed as he slammed his spear into her knocking the flame from her hand. Rolling onto her hands and knees she gasped desperately for the breath he'd knocked out of her. Her arms and legs felt weak after the blow, and it was a struggle just to get herself back to standing.
She looked in horror at what Luka had become. Keira, who she'd been planning to fight alongside of, was forgotten as she looked at the hulking monster that had just been a man not moments before. Not a natural warrior it was all too much for the young girl. She took one step back, paused, then another, and then she turned and ran too terrified to face what she was looking at right now not a sparing moment's thought for where she was going.

Happy that the Thief had escaped, Robert tried to disentangle herself from the guard she had bum rushed, hoping to be able to stumble out the door after her.
If she did, she would turn back to face with her sabre. If the door was narrow enough it would mean only one of the two men could come at her at once, and be limited in their options to dodge.

Useless little brat! Keira thought to herself as she watched Alane flee in terror. Sure, Keira was scared as well, but not scared enough to turn tail and get impaled by Luka's javelin. She had to keep the pressure on the same target, she had no chance if she tried to split up her attack. She stabbed the head of her spear into the ground and pulled free her Hunter's Axe. She still had plenty of strength left and she was going to show it. She beat the axe against her shield and let out a powerful war cry before lopping the axe at Luka.

Ertha sprints to the entrance to find Alane and Keira fighting a man with a bright lantern. But what immediately drew her eye was the large hulking beast with Luka's spear. It took you a moment to realize that it was actually the guard, now transformed into a strange monstrosity. In the corner of her eye, Ertha could also see Alane begin to make her escape.
Desperate Escape Roll (Feat of Speed):
Alane: 15 + 6(1d20) = 21
Gate Guard Luka: 10 + 7(1d20) = 17
Direction (1d3, 1= West, 2 = East, 3= North):3
With a frantic pace, Alane runs north into the guard building right past Ertha. While confused, Ertha does spot the chest with her weapons and manages to pick up her equipment. Once Alane is out of sight, Luka lets out another blood curdling howl only to be interrupted by Keira's War Cry (Ertha's and Keira's damage by 25%, all attacks have a 5% chance to critical). Taking a low stance, she prepares for Luka's Assault.
Luka
Chance of Immobility: (5%, 1d100, <5 to succeed): 25, Luka can act!
Attacks Keira
Accuracy: 16 + 10 - 14(Evasive Maneuvers) = 12, Accuracy Roll: 15, Miss!
Luka again takes a wide swing with his Spear wielding tentacle. But this time Keira is able to back step out of the spear's path.
Gustav
Fireball:At Keira
Accuracy: 14 + 12 - 14 =12, Accuracy Roll: 17, Miss!
Meanwhile Gustav attempts to hit her with another fire ball but it misses completely. Burning up some shrubbery.
Will-o-Wisp uses Self-Destruct
Accuracy: 25 - 14 = 11, Accuracy Roll: 16, Miss!
The fireball does draw Keira's attention to the floating Will-o-Wisp just by her face. It had started to glow brighter, pulsing as it emitted more heat. Instinctively she take cover managing to roll out of the way as it explodes. Keira can see the old man hiss as it looks like his plan had failed.

Alane
The young girl ran and ran and ran some more. She ran through the guard building ignoring everything in her path. Taking a different route then Ertha and Robert, she eventually comes to a stop when she reaches an open door. A faint light was coming from the other side. It creaks open to reveal Schwarzberg 's Lower City. She had finally reached her destination .... Alone.
What immediately struck Alane was just how quiet the city was. Even at it's slowest, the city was usually bustling. On top of that meany of the houses were either a complete wreak or were boarded up. Just as the silence of the city was beginning to settling in, you see a light turn on in a nearby building. It looked to be an old chapel just east of where you were. You could remember visiting it every now and them when you came here with your mother. But you could also still hear the sounds of battle coming from the gate.

Robert:
With a bit of clever positioning, Robert manages to force the two assailants into single file. But instead of the guard rushing forward, he steps back to let the Brute attack.
Robert:
Sabre Attack: Brute
Accuracy: 15 + 22 - 5 = 32, Hit!
Damage: 5(1d8) + 10 -12 = 3 Damage.
Brute:
Targeted Attack: Head (Feat of Skill vs. Speed)
Brute: 14 + 10 = 24
Robert: 15 + 12 = 27
Normal attack
Accuracy: 15 (Unarmed Strike) + 14 - 15 =14, Accuracy Roll: 17, Miss
For the most part Robert's plan works, the Brute isn't able to dodge your sabre. But to end this she'll need her pistols. So her options are to either hold these two here or run to her allies to retrieve her weapons.

Robert grinned as she managed to break away, holding the door and a delivering a slice to brute who tried to force passage.
She thought about breaking again and making a run for it, but thought better off it. She didn't know where to run to and these two obviously knew the lay of the land so would probably soon overtake. Stealing her resolve, she decided to stay and try to hold the passage for as long as she could, hoping the Thief would bring help soon.
Surely the Thief wouldn't abandon her here... right?

The moment she arrived on scene to the battlefield, her eyes would have searched for her objectives; the civilian and the knight, and her weapons. But the hulking tentacle monstrosity drew her attention. It... was a disturbing sight to see. Her eyes had the time to scan over the beast and recognize it as Luka. How the hell did this happen to him? She almost shuddered, the grotesque creature moving in ways that was just too disturbing. Ertha, having enough of the sight, reminded herself of her objective and turned her head down to see the situation in full.
The civilian was running directly past her, looking injured and most probably mentally scarred. The knight was dodging for her life as she was attacked by three different sources of damage (Ertha wouldn't think someone in so much armor could be so evasive, good on her). The weapons chest is open and unprotected. She dashes at the chest, swinging it open and taking her weapons back. She felt a weight lift off her shoulders as she reunited with her most trusted and only friends; Erhardt's longbow, her dagger and her crossbow. Now armed and dangerous, she reconsidered the situation.
The fight seemed pretty useless. There was probably no reason for them to fight an opponent that looks so dangerous two teammates down, so it probably would have been best if the two escaped to regroup with wherever Robert was so they could find Alane. But whether or not they can escape was the problem. She didn't feel confident in the knight's chances of outrunning the tentacle monster without aid, and Ertha herself was a bit winded after running as much as she did, but she figured she had enough for one more. With a plan in mind, she equipped her crossbow and fired a bolt aiming for Luka's left leg. "As soon as he staggers, run!" She shouted to the knight, ready to take her own advice.
