Wound The Fuckers

I took a deep breath and popped up and fired a shot into the leg of the goblin nearest Torvald and drew a second arrow quickly.

“Don't try it. Run away now. No one else needs to get hurt.” I shook my head at the other two. I could feel my fingers trembling.

"Kill the fucker.” The one on the ground screamed. One drew a knife and came running at me like an idiot. He stopped dead in his tracks as I put a shot in his foot. The third one had grabbed a cross bow and was trying to pull the string back but the thing was about half as fucking as big as he was. I put a shot into his shoulder. The one I shot in the foot started coming at me as he snapped off the arrow. Little fucker was tough but I put an arrow through his other foot. The one I shot in the shoulder took off running into the woods.

“You Torvald?” I asked looking at the man who was tied and gagged. He nodded. I came over and with my bow ready as I kept my front toward the goblins. I pulled out my ax from its sheath on my belt to cut the rope and Torvald against the gag in his mouth and looked at me and then behind me. I realized a second to late what he meant as I turned to see a goblin behind me come running with a sword. I dodge the worst of it but he still got me sending me falling to my knee as a searing pain tore into my thigh. He swung his sword at my head now that he had cut me down to size. I barley managed to block with my ax stopping it inches from my face. As I hooked the sword with the underside of the ax blade and managed to push it away and swung at the fucker taking his head clean off his shoulders. I turned as the one I had shot in the leg was hobbling toward me quickly. I fell back as he swung his knife wildly at threw my ax hitting him in the face and sending him flying from the of it.

I looked around for more, but other than the one on the ground with an arrow in both feet, I didn't see or hear anything else. I touched my leg where I had been cut but luckily it wasn't deep though it had gotten into the meat. I could walk but running was out of the question. It stung like a mother fucker but the pain let me know I was alive. I cut the rope holding the gnome.

"You good?" I asked.

"Yeah. A little bit banged up but still breathing thanks to you." He said once he could pull the gag out of his mouth. “How did you know I was here and in trouble friend?”

"Thank Arwen. She had a feeling you were in danger. I just happened to be the person dumb enough to come looking for you. Never thought goblins were such tough little bastards." I shrugged.

"Yeah.” Torvald shook his head and walked over grabbing the crossbow off the ground then the bolts and put an arrow in the last one.

“You really have to kill him.” I said as I took a length of rope and tied it around my eg tightly to stop the bleeding.

“Fucker tried to kill me. He do the same to the next traveler who came calling. "Little bastards dropped out a tree onto the back of my wagon and conked me on the head before I even got a shot off. I woke up tied to the tree there."

"We should get out of here. There were others who made off with some of the cargo and I rather not be out here when that one you wounded comes back with his friends.” He shook his head.

"You'll get no argument from me." I nodded. I sure as hell didn't want to stick around and wait for the rest to show up. I grabbed the sword the goblin had tried to dismember me with and his sheath from his belt with just encase I found myself in need of one again. Luckily the goblins hadn't unhooked the horses so we managed to make a pretty quick exit. They would most likely have waited till nightfall to take the wagon somewhere more secluded then try and sell what they could to someone they knew. The would have most likely gone to someone in the city, at a considerable discount compared to what Astrid had paid for it no doubt.

The guards stopped us at the gate but they seemed to know Torvald. He told them what had happened and they sent us on our way. We pulled the carriage around the back and into the stable. He went to unhook the horses and get them into the stalls while I went in through the back where I heard a woman's voice singing. As I came into the main room I saw the elf named Arwen singing. Despite the tavern having a full house, not a soul other than her made a noise. I had heard the song before but never sung more beautifully.

"What happened. Are you okay. Where is..." Astrid the barmaid said as she came into the back where I was. “He is in the stable putting the horse away. Goblins had him.” I shrugged.

“Are you hurt.” She said looking at my leg.

“Just a flesh wound. Little bastard snuck up behind me and got me in the leg but the bleeding has stopped.” I shook my head.

"I am just glad you are both okay,” Astrid said hugging him for a few seconds before she looked up at me. “Let me get your stuff and we will get you up to a room.” She said and she went and grabbed the bag and helped me up the steps. I could walk but the steps made it sting a bit. It would be another scar to add to the list. She led me into a pretty nice looking room. More spacious then I would have thought it be for three copper a night.

“I hope you have another pair of pants with you.” She smiled.

“Yeah. In my bag.” I smiled. She grabbed the wash basin and pitcher from the night stand and brought them over to the table. Looks like you were right about it being not to deep though it will leave a nasty scar. I will send Arwen up to take a look. She is a healer so she can help.

“Thank you.” I smiled. She left the room and I used a rag to clean the wound. Stung like a mother fucker but it was better then dying of an infection. I had had some cuts and scraps in the past but a sword wound was new. A few seconds later I heard a knock at the door.

“Come in.” I said and in came Arwen. She had the typical elven slender physique most elves had though not skinny having slightly curves. Slightly shorter then a human woman with the top of her head only as tall as my chin. While elves were never flat chested their breast were typically smaller then humans though hers were about average for a human but looked bigger maybe because of her slender physique. That and her tight bodice pushed them up in her dress.

“Astrid told me you were injured in the leg.”

“Yeah. Little goblin bastard got me good.” I said turning my leg so she could see it in the light. “Your a a healer?" I smiled.

"I learned some healing from my mother." She replied as she came over. “You will want to remove your pants and stand up so I can heal you.” She gave me a look as she bit her lip.

“Okay.” I shrugged and stood up and kicked off my boots then unfastened my pants and pulled them off. She blushed brightly when she saw my penis and bit her bottom lip. I actually thought it might be the first dick she had ever seen from the way she was looking at it as if she was afraid it might bite her like a snake.

“Problem.” I smiled.

“No just never seen a.” She began to say and shook her head and took a seat. “Never mind.” I kind of wanted to hear the end of that sentence.

“Solacium.” She said and ran her finger ever so gently over the wound as the pain faded away. It actually felt a little nice not to mention the fact that now I wasn't in pain I could enjoy the view of her tits though her face was just as lovely to watch.

“Mendus,” She said under her breath and ran her hand slowly across my leg. I could see her eyes wonder back to my penis as she bit her lip and blushed. A few seconds later she removed her hand and brushed away some dried blood where the wound had been. It left a pretty nasty scar but the pain was gone.

“Wow. Wish I had met you years ago healer. Thank you.” I said looking at it

“You as well. I mean. I was glad the Goddess brought you here.” She said and shook her head as she turned bright red. “For saving Torvald I mean.”

“Glad I could help.” I smiled and let my tunic drop down.

“I should go before I make an even bigger fool of myself.” She said as she stood up and walked to the door. As she opened it up she almost ran into Astrid who was carrying a tray of food.

“Oh. Sorry. I was just about to knock.” Astrid smiled.

“It's fine.” I nodded and reached into my bag and pulled out my pants. Arwen gave me one last look before she closed the door.

“Fine Indeed.” Astrid smiled as she gave me a look as I stepped into my pants and slid them on getting a little peek at my ass.

“I hope I didn't frighten her.” I smiled and nodded toward the door.

“She will be fine. She can be a little awkward when it comes to young men.” Astrid smiled and sat the tray on the table.

“That looks great. Thank you. How much do I owe you?” I said as I sat down and took a bit almost moaning as good as it taste. I hadn't eaten since breakfast so the food really hit the spot.

“It's on the house dear. Consider the room yours for the week as well.” She said as she walked aroun and leaned against the desk.

“Thank you.” I said and took a drink of ale.

“Please. It's the least I can do after what you did for us.” She smiled.

“How is Torvald?” I glanced up.

“Hard headed thankfully. Just a few bumps and bruises. Nothing Arwen can't fix.” She shook her head.

“This is for you as well. Sorry that it's all in copper,” Astrid said as she reached into her cleavage and pulled out a small coin purse.”

“I can't take that.” I shook my head.

“You saved my businesses. I would have to pay a lot more to replace the lost not to mention torvald. I don't even want to think what those goblins would have done with him.” Astrid shook her head and took my hand and put the coin purse in it and closed it.

“Torvald told me you actually tried to spare the goblins lives.”

“Foolish in hindsight I suppose.”

“A little compassion isn't always a bad thing though someone with a sword will not typically show you the same but you have a good heart other wise you wouldn't have helped me during my time of need for which I will be eternally grateful. Speaking of which I have a favor to ask of you.”

“Name it,” I said putting the coin away in my coin purse and took a drink of my mead.

“I wouldn't be so quick to say yes, but you found my Torvald so you are the only one who could probably help. I spent a considerable amount of coin on that load. Several gold in fact.” She said make me almost on my drink. I had never even seen a gold coin. A few silver here and there but never gold.

“That much?”

“It's undistilled. We have to water it down some before we can serve it. It's easier to buy it undistilled and water down here then it is to have to go back and forth a dozen times.” She shrugged. “Though the gnomes don't mind if it undistilled but it put a human flat on his ass after a few drinks.” I imagined the goblins were drunk off of their assess right now.

“The goblins made off with some of the more expensive kegs. Mostly ale like your drinking now but left the mead alone. They aren't the smartest creatures but they seem to have good taste when it comes to drinking it would seem.” She shook her head. “Torvald said they had a small cart and donkey they took off into the woods and not the road.”

“They might have a hideout near there.” I replied and she nodded. Made sense I guess. They wouldn't need the cart since they had the wagon unless they planned to make several trips back and forth. They most likely took what they wanted and would sell the rest. Even with a donkey the cart couldn't have gone too far through the woods.

“That is what I was thinking but I wouldn't count on them sticking around long. I know I am asking you to risk your life again but it mean the world to me if you could get the rest back.” She said as she touched my hand.

“I can try but no promises.” I shrugged.

“Thank you dear. That is all I can ask.” Asride smiled and leaned over and gave me a kiss on the cheek. Her large tits brushing against my back as she leaned over. After I ate I went down to listen to Arwen sing.

It took a while for the crowd to die down but eventually, they did. I went up to my room and pulled off my shirt and laid down on the bed. It was soft, unlike a few inns I had crashed in during my trip. I laid there and replayed the events that had occurred in my head. If I had been one second slower I would have been dead I thought as I touched my chest. I just laid there trying to drift off to sleep as a soft tap came at the door.

"Come in," I said. A second later in came Helga with a lantern in hand.

"Sorry. Did I wake you?" she asked.

"No. It's Okay." I said sitting up.

"I just wanted to come to see if you needed anything else." She smiled.

"No. Thank you miss."

"Please just Helga." She smiled and set the lantern down on the small table.

"I am good but thank you, Helga."

"I wanted to thank you for what you did for my brother. He can be a pain in the ass sometimes but I still love his dumb ass. Most humans wouldn't have done what you did on the word of an elf and not for a gnome.” She said sitting on the edge of the bed.

“It was nothing.” I smiled.

“Astrid told me she roped you into going back looking for the kegs the goblins took. I wanted to ask a favor as well.” Helga shook her head.

“Oh?”

“The goblins took a lute from the wagon that belonged to Arwen's grandmother. She wouldn't ask you to do this herself with her elven pride but her grandmother meant the world to her and taught her to play. You saw how many people came in tonight just to hear her sing.” Helga shrugged.

“Indeed. She has a lovely voice.” I nodded. She had a gift.

“We wouldn't have half of the business we have now if not for her. Most people come in just to hear her sing.” Helga shrugged.

“I am sure it's not the only reason. The view is nice here.” I said looking at her tits that looked like they were going to pop out at any moment.

“These just make sure they tip me well.” Helga smiled and gave her tits a little shake as she laughed.

“Can't argue there.” I shook my head. It would mean the world to her if you could find it. As well as to me. I know it is silly to ask you to risk your life for some piece of wood but she is a dear friend to me.”

“I will look for it.” I nodded. I was going that way anyway. I couldn't promise I would find it or it be in one piece but I could try.

“Thank you.” Helga smiled and gave me a mug which amounted to a face full full of breast since I was sitting down though it was way to short to enjoy it. “I can give you some coin for your troubles.”

“Unless you would like some more immediate compensation.” Helga shrugged. “You can't spend the coin if you get yourself killed.” Helga smiled and touched my chest and rubbed it softly where the fresh scar was. “I won't be offended if you say no, a little disappointed since I wouldn't get to see what got Arwen all hot and flustered.” Helga smiled as she looked at my crotch.
