Come and get it!

    by: Slaad11 Author IconMail Icon
You grab the battering ram and ready yourself, picturing the look on the goblin's face when he comes through the door and you chuck it at his head. You only hope you can still reach him and that he has a key...

You smell a familiar smell and hear a noise outside the door. The smell is not goblin though, it is mindflayer, and there is another smell...

Is that, troll?

Yep, it's troll. The door flies open and there is a large troll. Over his shoulder, you see a mindflayer.

You can take on a troll, but you know that mindflayer isn't going to wait his turn. You heave the log-sized handle at the mindflayer's head, but the troll catches it before it hits your target and charges you with it. You square off; preparing to fight the troll when you are hit by a blinding pain that feels like an explosion went off inside your mind. Damn squid! You knew he wasn't going to wait for his turn.

The last thing you see as the ground comes up to meet you is the troll bringing the battering ram down on your head.

You are dead. Feel free to go back and try another path, since thankfully, this is only a story.

THE END.

You've come to the end of the story. You can:

  1. Step back to the previous chapter.

  2. Start reading the story from the beginning.
