'Cause nobody's posted.

Is something wrong with the old thread? I've never seen any RP continued like this, paticularly with the rules about double posting.

Alex saw the lightsaber fly through the air and jerked to the right in an attempt to catch it, throwing the wolf off balance in the process. Hand reaching out, Alex lifted his arm as the lightsaber began to fall down, his fingers curved as he prepared to hit the activation button...

And promptly felt the hilt hit him between the eyes hard enough to make his world turn black for a moment. The handle dropped to the ground with a clatter.

"Sorry!" Chase called, then was forced to turn back to her opponent as he nearly took her head off with his sword. All the nearby Agents were similarly occupied, so there would be no help for Alex from that quarter.

The wolf Sue had gotten back to her paws by this point and snarled viciously as she jumped at Alex. The PCCer, who had just gotten his fingers around the saber hilt, was thrown off his feet.

The saber handle slipped from his grasp once again, only inches out of his reach. Reaching for it with his left hand, Alex tried to the wolf's jaws shut and away from his neck with the other. He wasn't having much luck. The wolf's claws tore holes in his jacket and jeans and left bloody gashes in his chest and legs as it struggled to break free of the death-grip Alex was exerting on its jaw. Alex struggled to twist to the left, and the wolf took advantage of that to jerk its jaw free of Alex's grip.

It lunged for the Agents neck at the same time he got a grip on the curved saber handle and swung it above him. The Wolf! Sue impaled its head onto the lightsaber, shrieking as the energy blade burned through its lower jaw and skull before emerging through its left eyesocket.

The howl stopped, and the Sue collapsed onto the Agent. Panting and exhausted, Alex tried to move, only to be stopped by the corpse's sheer bulk. Absently, he noted that the body was just the right size to be made into a very nice rug.

Fortunately and unfortunately for the trapped Agent, the combatants of both sides were too busy killing each other to notice him. Fortunately because it meant a Sue wouldn't come over to finish him off. Unfortunately because help would not be forthcoming. Two minutes later, Alex finally worked up the strength to push the body off and pull himself up. Wincing with each movement and the pain it brought from his various injuries, the Agent got back to his feet.
