'Sigma Atlantis,Majuros Certadas!'

It's another day of the notable Demon Witch,practising his demonic arts at home.He had been so engrossed in this magic,that he had forgotten to bathe and eat since last Tuesday.This is not the first time he had forgotten,even since when he was young,he dwelled into the demonic legion of the dark arts,and began to study and improvise on his magical arts.Every full moon,he would go to the tavern can get some of the daily groceries,ranging from toothbrushes to newts' eyes.Newts' eyes are for magical purposes,together with salamander's tail,some blood of hound,and the dried slugs are some of the common items up on his shopping list.Sometimes he walked past the Tansy's All Magical Purpose to find many of the new and fascinating magical tools up on their shelves.Our hero will always stop and take a look in the shop if there is anything to his liking.
You heard toothbrushes.Yes,our Demon Witch himself has tough teeth,and the ordinary toothbrushes they had out there in the 7-Eleven doesn't last long against the friction of his teeth.Most of his toothbrushes lasted only about 2-4 uses,and they always ended up burnt from the heat that is generated when Demon Witch is brushing.

But this is not all that is what the Demon Witch does every full moon.

Our hero is a elite necromancer.Whenever he is full moon,he gets his money by participating in the Defend of the Ancients,short-ed as DotA.This is how he get his monthly salary to continue living,and exploring in the vast world of demonic craft.One fine night,the Demon Witch stepped into the Midnight Tavern,and began his another week of fighting,killing,and working,after he shopped his daily groceries of grand supply of toothbrushes and more.

The Demon Witch pushed away the tavern's door,creaking on its way.He sat foot into the tavern,and began reaching towards the counter.He began to speak in a creepy voice to the bartender,who was at that moment,doing what all other stereotyping bartenders were doing,and that was to wipe the inner part of the wine glasses:

'Ye got the slots' up?'

The bartender whispered to him in his rotten blue ears as he continue to wipe the glasses without looking:

'One last for ye' sire.'

'Who's the rest for this week?'

'The four around that table over there.'

The necromancer turned around to where the bartender was pointing with his hand with the white cloth which he had been wiping.To his surprise,he saw an old friend siting down facing back to him.

'Holy necromerry,is it the self-proclaimed the Night Stalker?!How hav' joo been doing my mate?'

The Night Stalker turned around and leered at Demon Witch,while speaking in a low tone:

'You hadn't changed much my friend.Your foul mouth is still intact.'

'Indeed,this foul mouth of mine had cursed and bestowed suffering upon countless victims!I'm so glad to see you here again joo know,after that Fifteen Years' War...'

'You shan't raise that bloody event again,it's more of the pain than the fame.'

'I shall.Let's gonna rip the assholes of the Sentinel hard for this week!.'

'You gonna meet my friend here,without him I bet I won't be here talking to you,let alone joining you in this week's DotA.Meet Mogul.'

'Hi there,nice to meet you.'

Demon Witch replied:

'Oh hi there to you too,my name's Lion.'

Lion peered across the table,to find two rather hot chicks sitting on the other side of the round table.Being initiative as a gentleman,he walked over to them and began introducing himself to his teammates.

'My name's Lion,what's yours to you two?'

The one with a sneaky looking,a slender figure,and two round blades spoke in a high feminine voice that is rare around the area in the Scourge:

'Mortred here,and she's my longtime mate,Akasha.'

'...'

'Sorry,she couldn't speak under normal situation.Her voice is her weapon on the battlefield.You wouldn't want to be hurt by your own teammate,do you?'

'Oh sure,hope to have a good time working with you two.'
Thinking in his mind:Wow,this seems interesting,voice attacks,I wonder if it is any useful...

'Same to you.'

'...'

As Lion broke off eye contacts with the two,he walked back to Balanar and Mogul,whom the two just started drinking mugs after mugs when Lion when to interact with Mortred,not sure with Akasha.

Lion cut in in the middle of their drinking session,asking,:

'So Bal,how did you and Mogul met...'

Just before he finished his question,Balanar interrupt,:

'Nah,words ain't enough,let's get through this with beer shall we,olde buds'.'

Lion thought for a while,maybe its true after all,since he haven't saw Balanar for 15 years,the details can wait,but the beer can't.

_____________________________________________________

After drinking tons and tons of beer,the Demon Witch,Axe,and the Night Stalker slept for about 3 hours only since they slept at 2am,and woke at 5am using the alarm clock invented by the famous Clockwerk Goblin.But it's the true nature of the Scourge that they do not sleep well at night,such that they do not need to sleep for long periods in the dark.Well,but when you are fighting,your instinct actually do not let you rest much too.So there wasn't a need to sleep for the trio.Lion had been also dwelled in necromancy for long hours by himself,sometimes up to hundreds of hours without sleep,food and cleaning of himself.So to him,rest wasn't a necessity.

1st day,5am.

He climbed up from his slumber,and he woke the other two that spent the night in his room in the tavern as well.It was time for them to get ready for a week of rumbling.

Since this time round,the team has two somewhat quite good looking girls in the setup,Lion does want to impress them to a point of admiration.He began styling himself up early in the morning,hogging the bathroom all by himself.However,he dosen't seems to be doing quite well in grooming himself up,since he had last did this in about fifty years ago.He took so long so much that Balanar smacked him in the face and said that he need to shit soon if not he won't be able to run around freely in the first night to kill as much as he can.While the two started 'ganking' in the middle of the morning in the bathroom,Mogul started to think deeply on how he was going to fight this battle.

1st day,5.30am

After the prologue in the bathroom,the three went down to the tavern to get some light breakfast and suppliments before the start of the battle.There,they saw Akasha and Motred sitting down,'supposedly' discussing on the plan of the battle.Well,you couldn't call it a discussion to a much extent,because all you see is Motred speaking,and Akasha nodding and writing her words on a small piece of parchment with a quill.

As Mogul and Balanar isn't that good with girls(yes you can expect them to be still single at their age,coz' all they want and know is kill and kill),Lion started the day by greeting them wth a slight smile:

'Er,well Good morning.'

Motred turned back and replied in mono-tone:

'Yea, good morning.'

'Erm,let's work hard,shall we?'

'Yea sure,good to see you in action.'

Lion thought for a while,just how does he gonna work with them for the entire week?

1st day,5.50am.

The five of them walked to the main parade,getting ready for the battle which is starting in 10 minutes.During this 10 minutes,heroes buy stuffs that will aid in their first day,or first trip to the forested area to start the battle off.While most of the heroes buy tangoes(a tool that allows you to eat trees),Lion does not buy tangoes.he is so fed up at eating trees for his whole life,and in the past he used to buy 9 at one go!The idea of munching on trunks and barks just turned him off.

'I think salve will just do fine...'
Lion mumbled to himself in silence.

'Hmm...I don't think it's quite a good idea to be picky about your food.Good kids should eat vegetables as much as they can.'
Motred looked at him while she started buying chunks of tangoes to stock up her inventory.

Lion bought 9 tangoes at one go.

1st day,5.55am.

Lion wondered who is gonna team with him.Balanar and Mogul went to the top lane of the Scourge.So all that's left is Motred and Akasha.He seriously dosen't want to solo a lane.He get so demoraled whenever he is alone with tons of mindless creeps around,with retarded Sentinels.He hoped that anyone will approach his lane,at least to share his pain of boredom of killing alone,or get killed alone.

As he waited at the first tower of the bottom lane,he heard footsteps behind him.Those won't footsteps of the creeps,it would most probably be one of a hero's,or heroine's.Without turning back and taking a look,he can figure out from the dead silence after 1 minute after the death of the footsteps,that the one who is gonna kill with him,or get killed with him is Akasha.Well,he did not blame her for anything,since her voice is her weapon.

1st day,5.59am.

As the creeps were about to spawn,Lion decided to at least communicate in a simple to his lane mate at the very least.He turned back,and looked at Akasha and asked:

'Well,you see,I was gonna ask you if you are gonna creep block or something,erm raise one of your wings to signify a yes,and both for no.'

And Akasha raise both.

1st day,5.59.50am

Seems like Lion is gonna creep block all by himself.Well it is something that is quite fortunate for Akasha too,because Lion is an excellent creep blocker.He once learned the skill of creep block from the almighty Lich King,and once blocked the creeps in the middle lane to the Scourge tower itself.But at the bottom lane,creep blocking isn't that efficient.But who cares,he is gonna do it anyway.

1st day,6.00am

The first wave of creeps has just spawned.The lane set up is as follows:Mogul and Balanar for top,Motred for middle,and Lion and Akasha with bottom.None of the five of them knows who is at the side for Sentinels,but they know,whoever they are,they are gonna kill and kill over and over again,for that is the role of Scourge.Lion is happily haressing the creeps' path,so much so that a creep almost fell down while moving along the route.

1st day,6.00.15am

Not long after the starting of the first creep wave,the first clash of the creeps waves were soon met.Lion saw two shadows around the cornerat the end of the trail in the forests.One short and stout showdow,with clanging of the sound of metal plates knocking on one and other.The other,a long line of black figure,with gunshots in between each attack on the Scourge's creeps.With th intelligence of Lion,he soon figures it was the Dragon Knight,and Dwarven Sniper.

Dragon Knight,feared for his ultimate form,the Elder Dragon,has brought numerous victories for the Sentinel.Together with his 3.5 seconds stun he had owned many heroes under his blade of justice.He is one hero who cannot be underestimated with his great regeneration and great synergy of his skills.

Dwarven Sniper is supposely a great damage dealer of Sentinel.As the battle carries on,he gained a better and longer attack range than all of the ranged heroes.With the capability of stunning at a rate during every attack,he is a dangerous hero killer when he locks on a low health target with his finisher,the Assassinate.

True enough,both heroes at the bottom lane for Sentinel are dangerous,and prove a threat to Lion and Akasha.But,contrary to Lion's wisdom,he knew how to counter the two seemingly dangerous heroes.As long as he can work together with his lane mate,using his knowledge,Lion could kill any one of the two without much effort.

But it seems that communication is a bit problem here with Akasha...
