*the still in his hand Dino speaks a word of power and the Raft comes to a bonejerking halt infront of Dino*

*the still around his neck Bamm Bamm speaks some words*

..... lovely Rock, nice Rock, Rock like Bamm Bamm .....

*Nearly thrown from the raft*

OK, whatever he's got, I want!

*Starts rummaging through his pack.*

*shouts to Gwen*

To complicated to explain right now ..... but we need to deal with this before it attracts the others

Fair enough. How do we get across the river, though?

*stands next to Dino on his left hand side and raises her left arm high in the air chanting as she goes with the in her left hand and holding Dino's left hand with the other*

*shoots a great wad of silly string over Dino and Pebbles*

*having approaced the raft bit by bit*

*hurls herself at the Gobolds, trying to snatch a or two away trom them*

*standing next to Pebbles and raises his right arm high in the air chanting as he goes with the in his right hand and holding Pebbles right hand with the other*

*gets entangled in the silly string, hard to tell if she managed to get hold of any *

*shouts*

Separate their hands, pull them apart, don't let them carry on with the incantation

*another flash of light is seen, another roll of thunder. a shadow is seen in the trees, moving with great speed towards the river. the tops of the trees are moving, as if being pushed aside to allow for the passage of something very large indeed. the ominous laughter is heard again*

*Locates what he was looking for and ties a string to it.*

Hey! Gobolds! I have a gift for you!

*Lobs the object into the general vicinity of the gobolds. It explodes giving off a very large BANG and a very bright flash of light.*

*gazes with awe and wonderment at the onrushing shape*

Gw7en .... look at this

*turns to Gw7en*

*hears the laughter and faints dead away on the bank of the river*

*somewhere in her subconcious thinks, "This is getting annoying. Why do I keep faintins?"*

Gw7en !!

*rushes to Gw7en's side*

*the grenade goes off with a large BANG and a bright flash of light*

*silly string flies everywhere and amazingly none of it misses Zomnker*

*the incantation continues*

*a large shape, moving too fast to be seen clearly, rushes out of the trees moving towards the river. glimpses of strawberry blonde hair and crudely chiselled yet delicate elven features can be glimpsed, as can a vicious looking sneer. the shape speeds straight towards the gobolds, intent on separating the two*

*feeling weak, as if being in the presence of beauty*
