OOC: I'm a bit rusty but here is a long past due update.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Draconis is glad to finally be out of the Black Marsh. He grips his reins as his horse brings him closer to the gates of Leyawiin. The Guards acting as his escort have already rode ahead, and no doubt informed the count of his arrival. The Leyawiin soldiers looked up at him in suspicion and at the Nord that was bound by chains and slumped horizontally upon the horse next to him.
Draconis ignores their stares and enters the city. He wastes not time and passes up all onlookers before coming to a stop in front of the Mages Guild. Alves Uvenim is waiting there already with two other mages Draconis didn't recognize. Alves was the female Dumner that gave him the contract for this Nord.
Draconis steps down off the saddle and grabs the chains wrapped around the Drifter and pulls him off the horse, standing him upright. Alves steps forward and examines the Nord. "Ah yes.. Good, good." She looks at Draconis as her mage companions take the drifter and assist him inside. "You've done well Draconis. Suryin will be pleased indeed."
Draconis was unimpressed by the complements and really didn't care what her employer thought either. "Wheres my money?"
Alves just smiles as she pulls a tied red velvet pouch out from underneath her robe. The pouch rattles as Draconis takes it swiftly and turns to get back on his horse. He climbs up on the saddle and looks down at the Dark Elf. "You know he can transform in the daylight hours don't you?" Alves eyes narrow slightly and her face shows no emotion as she speaks in a serious tone. "Of course I do."
Draconis returns her gaze with a serious look of his own. "You know that information would of been helpful. You got several men killed this day." She speaks her heartless remarks. "Their lives were more than worth the cost of this ones capture." Draconis usually keeps from getting involved but can't help but ask. "So what did he do?" The Dumner's voice lowers, becoming almost threatening. "Thats none of your concern Breton. You were paid to do a job and you did it. Your part in his fate is done now."
Draconis wasn't used to being talked to this way. He wasn't well known in Cyrodiil, but had she known his reputation, he was sure she wouldn't speak to him that way. "Very well. Still had I known I would of charged you more for his capture. He's one of a kind that one." Draconis pulls on the reins and begins to turn his horse as Alves interrupts his exit.
"He is quite unique Breton. But one of a kind he is not.... There is another." Draconis stops and looks to the Dark Elf who walks to his side. She reaches under her cloak and removes a parchment handing it to him. "I have another contract for you. This one pays double." Draconis lifts a brow. Intrigued he unrolls the parchment and looks at the sketch that dawns its surface. The Dumner's eyes narrow. "I need you to bring me the Pirate they call Duric."

“COME ASSASSINS!.. YOUR FRIEND IS IN NEED OF YOUR ASSISTANCE!” I throw the head towards the shadows, but they do not budge. “YOU WANT ME DEAD!?... HERE I AM!!…. KILL ME!!"
My back straightens as an arrow pierces its center. The bladed head of the arrow sticks out of my chest several inches. I feel nothing at first, but the pain comes with my next breath. Two more arrows find their target, as I now am the one on his knees. The tips of all three arrows protrude from the front of my chest. The pain is severe, but not as bad as what comes next.
My stomach twists as its being ripped through my very pores. The cramps double me over on the ground, blood gushes from the wounds the arrows inflicted upon me, but I no longer feel their pain. The cramping pain in my stomach overpowers it ten fold. I’ve felt this pain one other time. In the swamp just before I blacked out. This time its worse though, I sense the end is near, as I can no longer move. I stare to the side, my head agaist the ground I see a figure standing before me.
Darkness once again forms around my eyes and I sense myself slipping into a dark pit, within my own body, I try to shut out the pain, but I’ve lost all control. My shouting goes unheard, just echoes in the subconscious of my mind. There is only darkness now. I can fight it no longer. I close my eyes and give myself to the darkness…
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rain falls as lightning continuously flickers amongst the clouds. Thunder rolls lowly through the wind as two dark figures approach the body lying in the center of town. "It is done" Another cloaked figure emmerges opposite the two. He lowers the bow to his side and examines Durics body. Three arrows have pierced his chest dead center. Blood still runs from beneath him, following with the light stream of water that carves its way through the mud.
Suddenly the body moves slightly. One of the assassins draws his sword quickly. "Nobody could live through that... finish him off." The figure to his right draws an odd shaped dagger from beneath her cloak. And steps forward slowly. She halts as a strange noise can be heard coming from Duric. "What dark magic is this?" Duric's torso lunges upwards his spine bent backwards as a noise that sounds as if every bone in his body is being broken can be heard.
His body contorts itself, his muscles spasam as an inhuman growl comes from somewhere underneath. His size increases as he bends over, his face is elongated becoming a snout. The jaw lined with sharp fangs. Talon like claws extend from his deformed fingertips. the back of his hands now covered in brown fur. One of the Assassins leaps forward, but is quickly thrown aside by one of the beasts arms. Duric leans backwards, and lets loose a Howl that rips through the night, and sends a chill down the spines of the Brotherhood members.
He gets to his feet. Each breath, exhaling with a low growl. He grabs the arrows sticking from his chest with one clawed hand and removes them in a quick motion, throwing them to the wet ground. The Sword weilding assassin looks to his still standing brother. "We take it together."
The eyes of the Beast Narrow as it stares down the two like they are nothing but prey. Lightning streaks the sky and Thunder booms as the Assassins make their move.
