Orin, covered in several wounds that were not there when he entered the forest, raised his hands but still walked towards Rowan. Finally, I was worried you were in danger... he mouthed these words before collapsing in the mist, his limbs feeling too heavy to move.
(An hour ealier, on the outskirts of the forest)
Orin was walking into the forest when he felt a kick hit the back of his head, but before he could react, two more kicks knocked him to the ground. He tried to get up but felt a gun barrel at the back of his neck. "I've been waiting ever since you two hooked up before the 'wave' to step in, but she would have liked you too much to accept this..." "Duke, now is not the time for-" "Yes, yes it is the time, shes finally angry enough at you... and like that cat made you hers, I plan to do the same to Ro-" Orin didn't care if the gun was at his neck as he spun around, kicking the arm holding him down. He got up and landed a nice punch right in Duke's face. "How long have you been screwing with me.... just tell me Duke!" the brown-mustard yellow wolf chuckled "Ever since you've taken those jobs, you would have kept those if I didn't persuade the manager to fire your stupid self every time... I have to admit you were quite stubborn to support her, not many go through eleven jobs and still hope to get work" Orin gritted his teeth and started punching and kicking Duke in a style mixed between shadow boxing and traditional karate. After a the flurry of attacks, Duke caught Orin's foot and tossed him to a tree, shooting his forearms and one of his thighs while he was trying to get back up. "Just give it up, she doesn't want a hot-head that can't even hol-" Orin took the gun out of Duke's hand and pistol whipped him before kneeing and then driving an elbow right into the back of his neck. "If you want to fight me, shut up and fight...." as Duke's tried to get back on his feet, Orin round-house kicked him into another tree, aiming the gun at his head. "Any last words, 'Bro'?" then the unexpected occoured, a roar went off in his head and flipped his balance upside-down for a few seconds.
"Leave Dukes alone Orin!!" he heard before his vision cleared. He saw Khristy with Duke, she was standing in front of him, ready to fight. "This is exactly why I really hate being alone, a duel constantly gets interrupted by someone who perfers to double-team me-" "Just shut up Orin, Duke wasn't even going to bother with Ro-" "Khristy, you came just in time to ruin the mood... now how is he going to take me seriously?!" Duke looked at Khristy with some anger, but calmed down "Fine, I probably should have told you, but I tho-" "Would someone bother to tell me whats going on, or do I have to cap you both before going back to Rowan?" Khristy smirks and looks at Duke with an 'I told you so' demeanor, and Duke sighs. "Ever since you ran into my girlfriend Khristy, we've been making sure you ran into as little trouble while still testing your relationship's strength, but when you went looking for her, she had to fake being your pet... you know the rest..." Orin gritted his teeth and emptied the last two rounds into the dirt before throwing the gun at Dukes. "You mean you wasted my time I could have spent finding her over some pointless test?!" Orin stormed deeper into the forest, the mist starting to take effect on his somewhat wearied body.
