Fateful Hour [Closed]
It is midnight. Griffon Guards patrol the area, the most of them guarding the Griffon Headquarters. Iris leaps from the clocktower that gave her shelter for the past 2 days and slits the throat of one of the guards patrolling main street covering his mouth with her hoof to muffle any sound. She drags the body into an alleyway and moves onward towards the Griffon Headquarters. This is an important mission. Everything matters. It is a daring goal but a simple one: Assassinate Tisis Antony. Iris Hawkeye covers the barbed wire on the fence with a doormat and silently hops the fence unseen by the various guards. Everything has to be perfect. Every second counts. It is a fateful hour.
She systematically takes out the guards to the front entrance one by one. She would need that area open in case things got rough. She checks her watch: 12:05. In exactly 55 minutes, the guards are supposed to end their shift. The new guards will arrive in exactly 55 minutes to take their spot. She had to kill Tisis and get out within that time. Otherwise, she would have 30 or more guards on her within the next minute including SangWing and Zweihander. She climbs onto the roof and shoots both guards guarding the door in the head with arrows. She enters silently. There is no room for error and so far, everything is going perfectly.

Re: Fateful Hour [Closed]
SangWing's red eyes were the only color moving around in the darkness. He lurked around the headquarters, since he was still recovering from the wounds in his wing and right leg. As shown, his previously injured parts of his body were wrapped up with gauze and fastened in place. Although the clip on his gauze kept the bandage in place, he knew if he got into another fight, the bandage would come undone as usual.
SangWing took a few steps in the darkness and randomly looked towards the building that Iris just entered. His eyes widened as he saw his brethren, dead and hanging near the wall from the crossbow bolt. He growled, and an image of Iris shooting him in the leg and wing was played off in his head. He screeched out to alert every guard in the building, and the first thing Iris would see is five doors opening in the hallway she was in, and ten griffins were immediately visible to her. One particular griffin snuck up behind Iris, and attempted to disarm her.

10 gryphons. Iris didn't expect something like this to happen, but she had made time for such an occasion in her planning. She shuts the doors behind her so no sound gets out from the bloodbath that will occur here tonight. She immediately stabs the guard trying to sneak up on her in the eye followed by a quick dagger deep in the gut. She pulls out both and uses the arrow to fire a shot at the backmost guard.

The Griffin stabbed in the eye was unable to scream out since the dagger immediately plunged into his brain and killed him instantly. Blood squirted out of his head and the griffin fell forward, dead. The other guards quickly blocked the arrow that she shot with their swords, and all of them immediately rushed forward to try and overpower her. 5 spears, 3 swords, and a pike were pointed at her and attempted to jam into her body.

Iris planned 5 minutes for encounters. 30 seconds have gone by. At this rate, she will barely finish in 5 minutes and be crammed for time. She runs up the wall next to the double door entrance and does a backflip over the group of griffons barely missing the stab of a spear as she throws two knives down at the group taking advantage of her temporary arial positioning to get past their defence.

The guards followed her with their weapons as she managed to flip over all nine of the guards that remained. One of the knives managed to kill one of the guards, jammed directly in their eye, before the other eight blocked the other knife. Two griffins immediately moved to the corpses to try and provide them with medical attention, which changed the number of guards down to six. SangWing rushed through the building, wanting to find the interloper. that killed his griffin brethren. How dare her... he was going to break every bone in her damn body. One of the guards rushed forwards to try and stab Iris with their pike.

Iris jumps back throwing her second dagger at the guard that jabbed at her taking advantage of his over extension leaving himself defenseless to take the dagger. She pulls out 3 more daggers, one for each hoof and one in her mouth. 4 minutes left.

That previous griffin fell onto the ground, dead. The other griffins were becoming panicked due to the skill of this mare. She was killing them left and right. The guards moved back, struggling between moving away from her, and remaining to be loyal. They turned around and immediately dashed out the door, leaving Iris alone in the hallway. The door behind her would be the beginning path to the general's room. However, the moment she would open the door, SangWing would be there, and a punch to her face would immediately be attempted.

Re: Fateful Hour [Closed]
Iris becomes annoyed by their fleeing. That definitely caused unwanted noise. With three minutes to spare, she decides to make short work of her mission and rushes up to the doors opening them with her crossbow aimed right where Tisis' head would have been should he be sitting at his desk. She is instead greeted by a punch to her face and is sent flying backwards landing on the ground with a hard thud her sling bow many feet away.

SangWing's eyes moved over to the sling bow that left her hands and he smirked before taking another few steps towards her. "You will not be leaving here alive." He said, as he quickly moved over to her sling bow and picked it up, in order to take the one thing that she used against him. "Remember last time when we saw each other? I almost killed your friend and you got to watch him almost die by my claws?" He took a few glances at the sling bow, to try and figure out how it works, before he looked to her. He would have moved closer to her, if she didn't have a bunch of knives up her sleeve.

Iris attempts to get up, but can't build the strength to do so. That fall took most of her momentum away. She was defenseless and not in a good position to fight back. Her mission had failed. It was over. She laughs an insane laugh "You sick fuck."

SangWing took a few steps over to the pony and then smirked as he glared at the mare on the floor. All it took was one punch, and she was now on her back and unable to move. "I'm sick?" He aimed the slingbow at Iris' right leg, and then stared into her eyes with his own blood red hues while his claw pulled back on the trigger, shooting a crossbow bolt into her leg if she didn't move.

Iris shuts her eyes tight and lets out a blood curdling scream that echoes throughout the city as pain envelops her body from the shot. The shot was powerful enough to send the shot straight into the bone of her leg.

Re: Fateful Hour [Closed]
SangWing smirked and let out a laugh at the sound of her scream. He moved closer to her, until their faces were merely inches apart. "You are going to die by my hands." He told her. "And I'll kill you when I damn well please." SangWing moved the sling bow over to her other back leg, and he then raised an eyebrow. "Maybe I don't need to use this." He said to himself. He moved over to the leg that he wished to injure, and he stomped on it with his lion paw, as hard as he possibly could. Another stomp. Another stomp. "I'll just break it this way. It's more fun that way." He said, another laugh coming from his lips. "Gonna beg for mercy yet? Usually at the third or second bone break, you weaklings start begging." Another stomp. "Yet?"

Iris continues to scream in pain as Sang begins destroying her leg. She lifts her head up and slashes deep at the foot stomping down on her.

SangWing felt the knife cut across his hind leg and he screeched out in pain before he reached his hand down to try and restrain the arm that slashed at him. He attempted to put the other claw around her throat so that he could cut off her air.

Iris struggles against Sang, but eventually her grip on the blade goes loose and it falls out of her mouth. She stops breathing and becomes still putting off a very good imitation of death.

He was not going to be tricked by her imitation of death. He knew when a victim was dead... since he made it occur to many of his victims before. He reached one of his claws back, and then attempted to punch her straight in the nose, with enough force to break it. Afterwards, he would take a step back to inspect his leg wound. After all, Iris wasn't going anywhere with her broken leg. "You useless mare. All ponies are useless... meant to be used by us higher beings. You thought that you were higher than all of us? You will die knowing that SangWing made you beg for death. Now when you aren't coughing back blood or crying like a little bitch, beg me to be merciful." He stomped on her bruised leg with his unhurt leg, but was willing to step back if she tried something again.

Iris grips the knife in her mouth once more holding back a scream of agony. Instead of screaming, she bites down on the blade and kicks with her other hind leg jamming the point of the crossbow that stuck through her leg into SangWing's own leg. She slashes at him with her knife as hard as she can.

Re: Fateful Hour [Closed]
SangWing would have pulled back, but was incapable due to the fact that the bolt stuck into his leg. He pulled off of it and screeched out as the blood started to spill, but the damage was already done. She managed to cut part of his wing. His patience was wearing thin. "I'M DONE!" He yelled out, before he attempted a flurry of punches, completely ignoring any pain in his body. He punched her face three times, both of her fore legs three times, and then a final three punches to her chest, before he picked her up by her impaled leg, walked outside the headquarters, and threw her outside. "Garbage." He said to himself, as he hurried over to the hospital tent. "I need to get this bandaged... or else I'm going to pass out."

Iris waits until Sang leaves and uses her front hooves to drag herself across the front lawn of the Headquarters. She continues to drag herself to the base of the clocktower leaving a smeared trail of blood behind her. She looks up at the clocktower in front of her and promptly collapses fainting from blood loss. It begins raining and the trail of blood begins to wash away.

Whiteout was spending some time at her nest and had no clue what was happening at the headquarters, she only looked over the edge for a moment because she head someone shout, but what she found at the bottom of her tower was not expected in the least.
Quickly heading down to the base of the tower and open the door and looks around to see if any other griffons are looking,finding none she quickly grabed the wounded pony and draged her inside, this is the part she was not looking forwards to, she heaved the pony onto her back and started going up the stairs "Don't die on me yet." she did know basic first aid, that was pretty common among griffons to know it.

The trail of blood washes away in the rain. Iris' watch turns to 1:00 just as she reaches the top of the tower. It has truly been a fateful hour.

Re: Fateful Hour [Closed]
Whiteout had quickly laid her down on a table in the top of the tower, she was lucky no one searched the tower, it still had a first aid kit in it, sighing "Lets get this over with."
She starts with the most obvious wound first, the arrow in her hind leg, she saw what kind of arrow she uses when the first talked so she knew they where barbed, grabbing the fetching of the arrow and breaking it off with her claws than comes the part she hated the most, she pushed the arrow all the way though, many disgusting sounds are made while it makes its way though but it soon leaves her body and she quickly starts wrapping it in bandages from the first aid kit, she than moved on to her other less obivious wounds.
Checking the leg opposite of the one that took a arrow, she felt it for a couple moment, it was broken, looking around for a minute looking for something that can be used as a splint "that will work." as she find that this room had planks stacked in it that where meant to replace the towers floor if the griffons did not invade, grabbing one and snapping it in half than she puts a sad face on "Im sorry." as she has to twist the broken bone back into place with her bare claws, a disgusting sound of bone poping into place is heard, finally she tightens the splint and she is now done with the hind legs
Whiteout had felt her chest, it was caved it, it was not life treating by it will cause pain, all she can do is comfort her when she wakes up, this wound need a doctor to be treated.
She thought she might as well clean up her face while she is working on her "You poor thing" as she started cleaning out the cuts on her face "How could someone do this to you?" she knows she is out cold but she talks anyways
That was all she could do for her, she made sure she was stable before she picked her up and put her down on Whiteout's bed, she quite often cared for others more than she cared for herself, anyways she would be up all night making sure whatever did this to her would not come back.
