Kayla kicked dirt into fire as she stormed around the campsite she shared with Brunesgoth, his wolf Petey and the gnome mage Zino they found in Gnomeregan. The damned idiot was half dead, clinging for dear life on some stupid gnome machinery. The idiot had the nerve to beg her to bring it out with them. Not that it was a burden, but it just didn't seem like it was worth all the mental anguish she put herself through to retrieve it.
"Stupid men and their stupid reasons." Kayla growled as she continued to pace crazily around the fire. Zino and Brunes sat on the other side of the fire from her. Zino huddled under his cloak and tried to stay out of her way. He knew better to mess with a woman who was going off on a tyraid. Brunes merely drank himself stupid like any other dwarf would. He found the more drunk he got, the less noise she seemed to make.
Petey seemed to be the only one brave enough to not cower before the angry rogue. He found a good spot next to the fire for himself, and enough distance away that it wouldn't bother the woman. Kayla didn't bother to be aggressive towards the wolf anyway. Not his fault that his owner followed an idiot drunk.
"Go out to Ironforge, Kayla. Go out to Gnomeregan, bring back an ancient artifact, Kayla. Before you leave, why you slip into something…." Kayla grumbled and then glared at Zino as she put her foot on the machine they retrieved from Gnomeregan. "What the fuck is this thing anyway?"
"It purifies raw ores so they can be smelted and engineered into better machinery." Zino said softly. Brunes held up some of his draft to Zino. Zino shook his head and kept his eyes on the crazied woman kicking his treasure.
"You mean I let that man almost touch me because of something that makes your stupid craft stronger?" Kayla snapped. Zino nodded and wished he could bury himself in the snow. At that point, Brunes had passed out. "Stupid males. You'd stick your cock in a light socket if someone told you it would perform better."
Zino went to open his mouth to defend himself, but the snoring dwarf next to him made realize that Petey wouldn't help him fight the woman off to prove her point. The wolf was probably the smartest male in the bunch, pretending to be asleep. Zino wished he could go to sleep but couldn't for fear the damn woman would slit their throat in their sleep.
Kayla went to start on another rant about men when she heard something. Even Petey lifted his head and looked into the direction of the noise. Kayla had thought maybe it was her mind that was messing with her, but if the wolf was responding to it, then something was out there.
"Watch the camp, I'll go see what that was." Kayla said. Zino nodded but realized she had been talking to Petey. Zino pouted and glared at the wolf.
"She's worst than Rose tenfold I'll tell ya." Zino said loud enough for just the wolf to hear him. The wolf looked at the gnome, giving him an odd look and laid his head back down.
Kayla silently moved through the snow for about a mile before she came upon another campfire. She stealthed and crept closer to the camp. It was two male trolls that seemed like they were getting ready to settle down for the night. It was odd that they would try to camp out on the doorstep of Ironforge.
"So do ya dink we should take hur up ta outlands? Me tinks we could makes mor trouba here. " One troll said. The other glanced to the tent and smirked.
"I'z got an idea. Kill hur here, blame it on dem ally pigs." The other troll said as he pulled some food from his pack. Kayla snuck behind them and into the tent where someone wrapped in cloth lay. She undid the cloth to find a blood elf priestess.
"Been a good while since I had some. Bet that one be good, priestess and all." One of the trolls said. Kayla tried to control her anger as her vision went red and a memory came to her.
~"Hey there, girlie. You lost?" A man said to Kayla. She was 15 at the time and had just escaped the fire that took ahold of her home and was forced to flee while her family burned alive in the house. She knew she should have thanked the light for allowing her to escape, but what was the point of life if she was alone.
"Why don't you come with us? Got a place that's just perfect for you." The other man said. Too weak and scared to fight them, Kayla allowed them to corral her into a large tent.
"Sir, we brought you something to keep you company." The first man said.
"She's a priestess in training by the looks of it. Fresh and young, just like you like 'em." The second one said. Kayla fell to her knees at the men pushed her down to the rug in the middle of the tent. There was someone else in the tent with her. They were behind a sheet that hung across the back of the tent for privacy.
"Very well, you may leave. Prepare the men. We attack Stormwind at dawn." The man behind the sheet said. The two men that had brought her into the tent left. Kayla was about to make a bolt for the door when the man came out from behind the sheet.
"Good evening my dear." The man said as he stepped towards her, wearing only a smile and his undergarment. Kayla felt like she was frozen to the floor as he drew a knife. "That dress is very offensive to me." And with one stroke the dress was cut in two, leaving her with nothing on.
"Please sir, don't." Kayla whispered as he lend down to smell her hair.
"My name is Edwin, my dear. Now be prepare to be screaming it in moments." Edwin said. He captured her lips with his as she screamed interally for the light to save her.~
Kayla's whole body moved before she could think of what it was doing. Quickly she jumped onto the back of one of the trolls, backstabbing him and then slicing his throat. The other troll moved to attack her only to have her pounce on him and cut his belly open. She panted uncontrollable as she surveyed the destruction of her anger. A moan of pain came from the tent that caused Kayla to come back to reality.
"I've got to get you moved into a safe place so you can recover." Kayla said, mostly to herself if the blood elf could hear her. She carefully picked up the blood elf and found the priestess was much lighter than she thought. She stomped over the dead troll bodies and made her way back to the camp where Brunes was passed out and Zino shivered in fear.
