Caravan - Open Fantasy RP - Jump right in!

Col, his thumbs pressing down on Pike's windpipe as he tried to choke the caravan guard into unconsciousness, seemed to barely budge as Pike tried to push him away. But he was so intent on what he was doing, that he completely failed to notice Terrick and Raven rushing up steep steps...
 
Not unlike Col, Pike was so intent on preserving his own life that he also failed to notice Terrick and Raven coming up the steps. As his struggles became weaker, dark spots began appearing in his vision as the last strands of available oxygen to maintain conciousness were rapidly slipping away.
 
Raven looked up from the steps and saw Pike and Col. She quickly aimed her bow, loosing the arrow at Col.l
 
Col's grasp immediately loosened, his left arm seizing up as Raven's arrow embedded in his bicep. He grunted in pain & surprise, snapping his head to look toward at the elven woman and caravan guard. Terrick stepped forward, not giving Col any time to recover before pushing him off Pike.

His sword in his hand, Terrick brought the blade close to Col's throat. "Don't move."

Brylla awoke with a start and sat up quickly, reaching for the dagger she kept under her straw-stuffed mattress. But all seemed quiet and she did not know what had awoken her.

"Karin..." she whispered. The younger girl's sleeping quarters were right next to Brylla's. "You awake? Did you hear something?"

Karin stirred in her sleep. "Mumernoshenorfhshhh...." She mumbled in her sleep.

Luna walked past the girls not glancing at them as she moved swiftly forward

(Can luna be a shape shifter like Tianea only she can turn into like a lion or something? Panther maybe...?)
 
Pike sucked in a gigantic breath of air the moment Col's grasp loosened enough to enable him to do so. Shocked at the sudden surge of oxygen, his lungs initially rejected the life saving substance and he broke off into a rather violent fit of coughing, choking and heaving. After several desperate sounding gasps, he was finally able to take a decent breath and for a couple of seconds his brain felt almost overwhelmed on an 'oxygen high'.

"Did you find them?" He wheezed once he had recovered enough to speak. "Linden and Mavis, where are they?"
 
"They were not in the pit" Raven answered, laying a hand on his shoulder to keep him from standing too quickly. She glanced to Terrick and Col "We have to find them and Luna."
 
"What?" Pike repeated incredulously, ignoring Raven's hand and shooting up into a sitting position. Instantly a wave of dizziness swept over him and he wavered for a moment before quickly lying back down. Head pounding, he groaned with a mixture of frustration and pain and rubbed his eyes with his hands. "Unbelievable. Where else could they be?" He looked expectantly at Raven. "Where did that girl go? If we don't find them soon this place is going to be crawling with cockroaches and we'll all be in the pit!"

"She took off after we entered the tunnels." Raven said and glanced to Terrick
