Dacey saw Hoster going for the door and turned around, dropping her swords at the sight of the four axemen. Before they even hit the ground, she was already reaching for her bow, and a moment after, nocking an arrow with practiced ease, bent on shooting at least one of them down. Once they reached them, she'd of course discard the bow and pick up her swords again.

One of benjen's arrows strikes one of his pursuers in the collarbone, the man continuing on with a howl of pain and rage. The other spins, the arrow passing before his face, and he closes the distance with a smirk.
(One traitor takes a medium wound. They will enter melee combat next round.)
Much like Dacey, Hoster kicks the door and it holds firm, though creaks a bit more. One more good blow might cave it in. Donnel takes aim and fires at Willis, trying to put down the wounded beast. The knight takes the bolt in the middle of his chest, coughing up a gob of blood, feeling a bit like Boromir at the moment. Dacey raises her weirwood bow and looses an arrow, taking one of the bandits charging across the narrow dock in the throat. He falls into the clay put, drowning in his own blood and the red muddy water. The two bandits in the windows exchange fire with the two remaining loyal Bonny boys and no one hits a damn thing.
(Willis takes a Heavy Wound. Dacey kills one of Harold's Men.)

"Fecking whoreson, ah gon' rape yer feckin' corpse." Hoster lost his mind as he saw Willis took another bolt, now to the chest; he was one of the few Blackforts Hoster had actually grown to like after their reunion. Someone would have to pay for this, he mustered his strength again and kicked the door with the sole of his heavy leather boots.

Ben grimaced as only one of his arrows landed. Time to kill or be killed. He swung his two handed axe in a great sweeping arc at his attackers.
[Two-handed axe: 70]

Dacey tossed the bow aside and picked up her swords. She stepped forward to meet the axemen.

Benjen finishes off the man he had shot with a blow from his greataxe that nearly split the man's skull in two, dislodging it and blocking the attack from his other foe with the hilt.
With a surge of adrenaline, Hoster kicks the door clear off its hinges and rushes into the building. Willis rushes in behind him and like a wounded beast begins hacking the surprised crossbowman on the ground floor with his axe, burying it in the man's crotch before yanking it out. Donnel and the remaining bandit on the second floor manage to shoot down two of the Bonny Boys as they rush in behind Hoster.
(Willis deals 1 Bandit a Heavy Wound, 2 Bonny Boys are Slain, 1 Bonny Boy Remains. Hoster receives +2 Unarmed. Willis Receives +1 Axe)
Dacey and the wounded guardsman turn to face the three men rushing across the dock. She lunges at Harold, who sidesteps and cuts her deep across the back. The Blackfort guardsmen positions himself between Dacey and the other two, but outnumbered and wounded, they cut him to shreds in an instant.

Shield raised, Hoster aimed to clean the first floor before going after Donnel; he hope Dacey could take are of the ones outside.
"Dooooonnel! Hoster's comin' after ye an' yer lil' friends." He shouted swinging wildly, his eyes wide like a madman's, blood sprayed across his face. "Ye chose the wrong man ta turn yer ragged rotten cloak on."

Benjen had never liked hand to hand combat, not since his first battle. It wasn't so bad when they were far away, when you couldn't really see their faces. But up close... Ben wrenched his axe free from the man's skull, banishing the thought. "Die, you goat-fucking bastard!" he shouted as he took a swing at his remaining opponent.

Benjen and his opponent trade blows, neither managing to wound the other, fighting to the death along the ridge.
(No Result)
Willis hacks the wounded bandit to pieces and then hacks some more and then keeps hacking until he collapses in exhaustion beside the mangled corpse, too wounded to ascend the stairs. Hoster and his remaining Bonny Boy climb to face Donnel and his remaining bandit. "You betrayed me first, when you put me under a bastard that tried to feed me to a fucking bear!" Donnel bellowed, drawing his axe and meeting Hoster on the stairs, parrying his sword with skill.
(Willis slays a bandit. No wound deal between Bonny Boy and Bandit. No Wound dealt between Hoster and Donnel.)
Surrounded, outnumbered, and wounded; Dacey suddenly became a force of nature, a tiger backed into a corner. She lashed out with her twin blades, fending two of the bandits off before driving the points into each of Harold's eyes and out the back his skull.
(Dacey slays Harold. Dacey gains +1 to Sword)

Benjen deflects a strike upward and kicks his opponent in the chest, sending the poor bastard flying off the ridge. He screams all the way down, before crashing through the dock below, impaled by a dozen chunks of wood and drowning in the watery sludge beneath.
(Benjen slays his opponent. +1 to Axe)
Donnel was one of Hoster's most skilled men and shows it now, parrying each strike his former employer threw at him, showing exactly how he had come to run this group of bandits. Despite fighting from a disadvantage below him on the stairs, Hoster gives no ground. Hoster's remaining Bonny Boy takes the haft of an axe to the face, breaking his nose. Willis passes out from his wounds.
(No wound dealt between Hoster and Donnel. Bonny Boy takes a Light Wound from bandit)
Dacey makes fighting two men at once look easy, parrying the blow of one with hardly any effort and slashing the other across the stomach.
(Dacey deals a Medium Wound to 1 Bandit)

Ben doesn't waste time seeing what has become of the man he kicked off a cliff, drawing an arrow from his quiver before he has even scrambled to pick up his bow again. Ben's draw speed was perhaps his greatest asset as an archer, but precision was what was required now. He slowed his breathing through force of will and aimed carefully this time, loosing just one arrow at one of the men attacking Dacey.

Benjen lifts his bow and fires, though his labored breathing and pounding heart from the melee causes the shot to go high, sailing over the head of one of Dacey's opponents. As Dacey stabs one of her opponents in the stomach again, the one Benjen had missed slashes her up the spine, the cut perpendicular to the one Harold had already dealt her.
(Dacey takes another Medium Wound. She Deals one of the Bandits another Medium Wound.)
Hoster bashes Donnel in the face with his shield, breaking his nose and causing the bandit leader to spit out a half dozen shattered teeth. Hoster used the momentary reprieve to step up the stairs so they were now on even ground. The remaining Bonny Boy and bandit continue to fight to standstill, neither managing to gain any ground as they fought desperately.
(Donnel takes a Medium Wound)

Benjen cursed under his breath. Dacey seemed to be giving as good as she got, but she was still outnumbered. Ben took deliberate aim again, trying to take down one of Dacey's assailants.

Dacey finishes off her wounded opponent, nearly cutting him in half with the two blades buried in his stomach. As she turns to face the other, a bodkin arrowhead erupts in a shower of blood and skull fragments from the middle of his face, Benjen aiming true this time.
(Bandits from Harold's group slain)
Donnel recovers and charges Hoster, tacking him to the ground, the two rolling around and flailing at one another. The bandit punches the Bonny Boy in the stomach with his free hand and brings his axe across his face, slicing out one of his eyes.
(Bonny Boy takes a Heavy Wound. No Wound Dealt between Hoster and Donnel)

"Ah'll fecking take care o' mah prick nephew..." Fumbling on the ground grappling his former comrade, Hoster tried to reach for of his daggers, he was going to poke that bastard full of holes. "But first, ah'll remind ye why ah was da one in command, ye piece I' dogshit."
