Naxxramas: Chapter 3-4

[sisduke]

Chapter 3:

Standing outside his house Zisteau watched the falcon descend with the note. Soon it was within reach and gingerly he took the note and read what was scribbled on the paper, “Naxxramas travels closer. Millbee, Pause, and I need your help. -Kurt.”

Zisteau put his two hands in his mouth and whistled loudly in the morning air. The clattering of armored hooves filled the air as a large black stallion with iron armor appeared from a barn.

“Ah, yes. Perilous.” said Zisteau.

He ran in the house swinging on the stair railing and into the kitchen. Grabbing a knapsack he filled it with 5 canteens and vegetables. Rushing back outside Perilous whinnied and Zisteau jumped on. Spurring Perilous he made his way to the wasteland.

Avidya watched as, once again, the door swung open. It was not The Master or the minion though. Another man was tossed into the room. His tanned skin and gray hair gave away quickly who he was. Arkas…

Avidya craned his neck enough to see that Arkas was in shambles. His clothes had slashes and were covered in blood. As the doors closed once again Avidya spoke, “Arkas?”

“Avidya…”

“Arkas! You need to get up!”

“It’s not worth it. We’re stuck here forever.”

“Not if you get up and get that keychain.” Avidya said pointing at the hook with the key ring.

Arkas turned his head and his eyes went wide at the keys. Using the poles that held Avidya’s chains to stand he gripped the wall for more stability.

“Hurry!” Avidya said.

Arkas reached for the ring and grabbed it and smiled, “Achievement get. Houdini.”

Avidya chuckled, “Now. Get me out of here.”

Arkas unlocked the chains that held Avidya and he smiled, “Achievement get. Escape plan.”

They laughed but they were quickly silenced by the knocking on the door and the creak. Avidya quickly put his arms up like he was still in chains and Arkas got back on the floor. The minion placed the food and water on the ground and walked out.

As the door closed shut Avidya and Arkas silently high-fived, “Time for escape.”

Unlocking the door Arkas and Avidya stepped into the torchlight. Walking through the halls on their toes listening into the different rooms. Screams and shouts echoed through the halls as others were tortured and killed.

Arkas flinched at one of the doors, “My holding cell.”

Avidya started walking faster, “We have to keep moving. No time for nostalgia.”

Continuing through the twisting corridors they made it His chambers.

“The prisoners will be dead within the week. The others will see.”

Avidya and Arkas sucked in a deep breath and tip toed past. After sneaking around the door they let the breath out quietly, “Keep going.”

Kurt rummaged around in his pack looking for his sword, “Food. Water. Aha. Sword.” He pulled it out along with his belt.

Looking into the sky he saw the floating structure of Naxxramas and thought, “I am coming for you brother!”

Sheathing his sword he shouldered his pack and kicked the other two men, “Wake up. Need to start before daybreak to see the staircase. Grab weapons.”

Pause and Millbee had been cuddling but Kurt didn’t say. He just smiled.

“Ok. Weapons. Food. Water. Good? Good. Now. Let’s get us Avidya back!” Kurt said raising his sword.

“Ya!” said Pause raising his bow.

“Ya!” said Millbee raising his hoe.

Kurt and Pause looked at Millbee, “Have you not a weapon?”

Millbee looked at the object and sighed, “Wrong thing. Gimme a moment. Ah! Ya!” He said raising his sword.

Kurt and Pause chuckled at the sheep man, “Let’s get grrrr…”

Kurt felt at his throat. Pause and Millbee stepped away at the animal sound, “Grrruys. Something!” Millbee shrieked as Kurt sprouted furry ears on the top of his head, “The wasteland has an effect on people?!” yelled Pause.

Kurt snarled and retched, “Help. Me…”

Pause watched the fluffy tail appear, “Kurt is becoming a wolf!”

Pause looked at himself and Millbee but saw no change but abruptly Kurt stopped spazzing, “Kurt..?”

“Why am I suddenly a wolf!?” asked a very panicked Kurt.

Millbee shrugged, “I’m a sheep. Maybe same reason. Just happens.”

Kurt growled, “Well. Guess we have to deal with it now.”
