In Whiterun Hold again. Last time she was here, she found a dragon. Not just any dragon though, the Greybeard's Grandmaster. This time though, she was hoping to find one that she could actually kill. However, just the stroll through the almost treeless plain made coming out here worth it. A mild breeze ruffled her fur and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. In fact, it was rather peaceful.

The Words of Unrelenting Force echoed through the air as a Giant flew off of the nearby low cliff. As it began to pick itself up, Wilhelm Bear-Heart jumped off of the ledge, the tip of his blade aimed downward. He hit his mark: the Giant's heart. As his full weight smashed down on the barely bigger Giant, there was a thud as their bodies hit, then crashed into the dirt. The Giant groaned weakly as it breathed the last time. The large Nord pulled his battleaxe out of the beast and holstered it. "Well, that went better than expected."

She heard the Shout and looked around. Suddenly, a Giant came flying off a low cliff and hit the ground near her. The Khajiit yelped and quickly ran to the side of the cliff. As she was about to draw her weapon, a familiar Nord fell, battleaxe-first, on top of it. A look of sheer Disdain crossed her face as she let out an almost agrivated sigh. "Wilhelm! By Talos if you weren't my friend I'd kill you... You and the Giant scared the shit out of me."

He looked over at the frantic-sounding Khajiit. "Oh, Furball, I didn't expect to see you here." He looked back at the very dead Giant. "Yeah, I had to kill that for the Jarl. Balgruuf was saying that Giant had been raiding the farms nearby, so I killed it. I should get a pretty amount of coin for that. Plus, there have been rumors that a dragon has been sighted nearby. Wait, what are you doing here anyway?"

"Dragon hunting. The rumors of the dragon are true." She snorted, crossing her arms. "Should be a hell of a fight too. I've seen the lizard flying around. I took cover though. I'm smart enough to know I can't take on an Ancient by myself yet. However, it's made several circles by. Maybe next time it comes by, we can take it down together."

"Sounds like a plan. I'm sure the use of my Thu'um has attracted his attention by now." No sooner had the Sellsword comment on this Shout, did the said dragon roar. He looked up to see the winged reptile begin a dive bomb, preparing for a fly-by. He jumped to the side, taking cover under the low cliff he just came over.

S'kvari, already under the cliff, looked up and was about to use Dragonrend. The, she had a better idea. "Oi, hairy, bring it down. I have a plan." She said, dashing out into the open, getting to to focus on her. The beast hovered above the ground, getting ready to Shout at the cat below.

He didn't have time to ask her what her plan was. He jumped up just as it took in a breath. He was quicker on the draw and Shouted "JOOR, ZAH FRUL!" Dragonrend hit its mark, staggering the lizard in the air and forcing it down. He had heard the first Word it was trying to use. "Watch out, Furball, it's a fire breather."

"Great! Just what I hoped for. Keep it down for me would you?" She chuckled as she took a deep breath. "FO, KRAH DIIN!" She called, the icy attack covering the dragon in cold and pain. Quickly she took out her Amulet of Talos and slipped it on, speeding up the recovery process. "Let's show it who's boss."

"Sounds like a plan." he nodded. He was surprised that she learned the Frost Breath Shout. He conjured up a Frost Atronach as he gripped his weapon. He made an almost leaping-like jump forward as he brought his axe against the side of the Dovah's face, cracking the scales and drawing a small amount of blood. The Atronach began working on the dragon's body with its ice body.

S'kvari gave the lizard a few good swings, but wasn't really focused on the dragon. Instead the was focusing on the Word she was about to use. It was powerful, and she knew she need to focus on it.
Finally, moments later, as the Dragonrend was about to wear off, she stopped and stepped back. "Hit with with Dragonrend again. Keep it down. Oh, and I hope you are good at dodging."

"JOOR, ZAH FRUL!" he Shouted at point-blank range, the victim roared in both anger and pain as Wilhelm continued to work its face over, and the Atronach beat up its body. The Ancient gave the summon a smack with its wing, sending it back to Oblivion. It snapped at Wilhelm, only for him to duck, barely dodging the deadly trap of teeth.

"Just so you know. This Shout is know for friendly fire." She said, wanting to throw in one last warning before she did it. "STRUN!"
The sky grew dark and cloudy, and it started to rain. Thunder rumbled and lightning lit everything up. However, a cloud-to-ground strike hit the dragon, causing the beast to growled in pain and flinch.

The lightning arched to Wilhelm's battleaxe as it grazed the dragon's face. The shock brought him to a knee. Luckily, his mask helped reduce the damage he took. He jumped backward, sheathing his axe and drawing his bow. He was a good archer, he just hated using it. He fired off a few arrows in rapid succession, strafing the dragon faster than it could turn. Hopefully Furball takes advantage of its focus being on me.

The Khajiit rubbed her throat before drawing her weapon. What a day for me to have forgotten my bow... she thought. Still, she didn't let it hinder her. She ran up, bashing the dragon's jaw with a power attack. It's attention almost immediately shifted to her. The lightning hit it again, but, though it obviously hurt, it didn't flinch as much.
It's mighty jaws snapped at the cat several times. She was able to dodge the first few, but the last one she wasn't able to. The best she could do was wedge her weapon in it's gaping maw and try to hold her ground. Since she couldn't Shout, she wasn't able to use the nifty trick Wilhelm used. The dragon shook it's head, easily pick S'kvari up and tossing her to the side, her battleaxe still in it's mouth.
She hit the ground hard, knocking the wind out of her and dazing her enough to keep her down for a bit.
